Q&A RE: FIDELITY FREEDOM FUNDS PROXY MAILING

AUG. 2016

Q1:

Why am I getting this proxy?

As a shareholder of one or more of the Fidelity Freedom Funds, you have the opportunity to voice your opinion on the matters that affect your investments. Voting instructions and background information are included in the proxy materials you received.

Q2:

What am I being asked to vote on and when?

You are being asked to vote on the following proposals, depending on the funds in which you invest:

To elect a Board of Trustees.

For shareholders of certain funds, to approve amendments to the funds’ management contracts.

For shareholders of Fidelity Freedom Index 2030, the Investors Against Genocide shareholder proposal.

A final proxy statement was mailed to shareholders on August 29, 2016, in advance of a shareholder meeting that is currently scheduled for October 28, 2016. Shareholders should read the proxy materials when it available because it contains important information. The purpose of the meeting is to provide clients with the opportunity to vote on important proposals that affect the funds. Shareholders may vote in person at the meeting or as instructed in the proxy materials.

New Management Contracts

Q3:

What can you tell me about the proposed management contracts?

The Board of Trustees for the Freedom Funds voted to approve changes to the funds’ management contracts. (This only includes the Freedom, Freedom K, and Advisor Freedom Funds. It does not include other asset allocation products, including the Freedom Index Funds, VIP Freedom Portfolios, or Fidelity Multi-Manager Target Date Funds.)

Q4:

How would the proposed management contract differ from each fund’s current management contract?

Currently, shareholders of the Freedom Funds do not pay a management fee to Fidelity. Instead, most of the expenses of each fund are incurred indirectly through their investments in underlying Fidelity funds. Under the new structure, each Freedom Fund will charge shareholders for all of its operating expenses directly, and most expenses that are currently charged by the underlying funds will be eliminated.

Under the current structure, a Freedom Fund’s decision to allocate assets from one underlying fund to another can result in a change to total expenses for that Freedom Fund. For example, if, in response to market conditions, Fidelity allocates more of a Freedom Fund’s assets to underlying funds with higher total expenses, your overall expenses as a Freedom Fund shareholder would increase. Under the new structure, most expenses of the underlying funds are eliminated, so investment decisions would not be expected to impact the overall expenses that Freedom Fund shareholders pay.

Q5:

Why are you proposing a new management contract? How is it designed to help benefit shareholders?

First, adoption of the new management contract would result in at least a 0.02% (2 bps) total expense reduction for each fund, which translates to an aggregate expense reduction of $49 million for shareholders, (the expense reduction will vary by fund and shareholders are encouraged to consult the proxy statement for details specific to their fund(s)), relative to the funds’ total expenses as of March 31, 2016.

In addition, the new contract would provide shareholders with more stable and predictable total expenses. A fund’s management fee will be based on a fee schedule in which the management fee paid by the fund declines as it approaches its target year and will then continue to decline for a period after the target year is reached. Under the new structure, most expenses of the underlying funds are eliminated, so investment decisions would not be expected to impact the overall expenses that Freedom Fund shareholders pay.

Q6:

Under the new contract, what is included in the management fee that is paid by shareholders?

The new management fee structure would cover all operating expenses of the funds with the exception of taxes, fees and expenses of the Independent Trustees, brokerage fees, interest, 12b-1 fees, proxy and shareholder meeting expenses, and non-recurring and/or extraordinary expenses, such as litigation.

Q7:

Can you provide an example of the how the total annual operating expenses are expected to be impacted?

For illustrative purposes, the tables below show the impact of the expense reduction for Fidelity Freedom 2025 and the different share classes for Fidelity Advisor Freedom 2025. The tables describe the fees and expenses that may be incurred when you buy and hold shares of each of the funds. Each table of annual operating expenses provided below compares the expenses paid by each of the funds and classes, as applicable, during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, to the expenses that would have been paid during the same period if the proposed new contract was in effect.


Fidelity Freedom 2025	Current Expenses (as of March 31, 2016)	Proposed Expenses
Management Fee	None	0.67%
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) fees	None	None
Other expenses	0.00%	0.00%

Q8:

It also appears that you’re recommending changes to the Trustees. What can you tell me?

Mr. Murray is also a director or trustee of many community and professional organizations.

Q10:

What can you tell me about Ms. McAuliffe?

Jennifer Toolin McAuliffe was the former Co-Head of Fixed Income for Fidelity Investments Ltd (FIL) in London, responsible for Research, Trading, and Operations.

Jenny is a graduate of Dartmouth College, The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy and Columbia Law School. She is currently engaged in philanthropic activities working with a number of not-for-profits.

Investors Against Genocide Proposal

Q11:

I also noticed in your filing that Fidelity Freedom Index 2030 includes the Investors Against Genocide shareholder proposal. I thought this proposal happened several years ago. What can you tell me?

At shareholder meetings held in the past, numerous funds presented a shareholder proposal sponsored by Investors Against Genocide that requested that the Board adopt oversight procedures to screen out investments in companies that, in the Board’s judgment, substantially contribute to genocide or other crimes against humanity. The shareholders of Fidelity Freedom 2030 Index Fund will be receiving proxy statements related to electing a Board of Trustees and the shareholder proposal will be included in the upcoming proxy materials of the fund.

Q12:

Where does the Board of Trustees stand on the proposal?

The Board of Trustees recommends that shareholders vote “AGAINST” the proposal.

Q13:

Why does the Board take that position?

The Board states the rationale behind its position in the proxy materials, which is as follows:

Fidelity, as investment adviser to the Funds, seeks to achieve the best investment results for each fund consistent with the stated investment policies of the relevant fund. In doing so, Fidelity is obligated to limit such fund’s investments to holdings that are lawful under the laws of the United States. The Fidelity Funds’ Board of Trustees has procedures in place to review Fidelity's performance as investment adviser to the funds, including each fund’s compliance with all applicable laws.

United States law prohibits investments in companies owned or controlled by the government of Sudan. FMR is committed to complying fully with these investment sanctions and any additional investment sanctions that the United States government might enact with respect to companies doing business in Sudan or any other country.

The Fidelity Funds Board of Trustees recognizes and respects that investors, including those investing in the funds, have other investment opportunities open to them should they wish to avoid investments in certain companies or countries. Shareholders of the funds, however, choose to invest based on the specific stated investment policies of the relevant fund. If adopted, this proposal would limit investments by the funds that would be lawful under the laws of the United States. For this reason, the Board of Trustees recommends that shareholders vote “AGAINST” this proposal.

Subject:Upcoming Proxy Vote to Reduce Freedom Fund Expenses

Beginning on Monday,August 29, 2016, proxy materials will be sent to shareholders asking them to vote on a new pricing structure for the Fidelity Freedom Funds (including Fidelity Advisor Freedom Funds, Fidelity Freedom Funds, and Fidelity Freedom K Funds) in an effort to achieve more stable and predictable expenses, and to reduce overall expenses. Fidelity has engaged the funds' proxy solicitor, D.F. King & Co., to secure votes via phone.All votes are critical, no matter how large or small the holdings are.

Current Pricing Structure Leads to Fluctuating Fund Expenses

The Freedom Funds invest in other mutual funds managed by Fidelity. Freedom Fund shareholders are not charged a management fee for their Freedom Fund investments. Instead, they pay fees indirectly through their funds' holdings in the various underlying funds that are managed by Fidelity.

The current Freedom Funds structure leads to fluctuations in fund expenses because the fees shareholders pay indirectly vary depending on the funds' investments in underlying funds.

New Pricing Structure Will Lead to More Stable and Predictable Total Expenses, and Reduce Overall Expenses

Fidelity is proposing a new pricing structure that will reduce the overall expenses that Freedom Fund shareholders pay and provide for less fluctuation in fund expenses. Under the new structure, each Freedom Fund will charge shareholders for all of its operating expenses directly, and most expenses that are currently charged by the underlying funds will be eliminated.

If shareholders of each Freedom Fund approve the new pricing structure, overall expenses for each Freedom Fund will decrease by at least 0.02% per year compared to the Freedom Funds' total annual operating expenses as of March 31, 2016. This reflects an estimated$49 million aggregate expense reduction for Freedom Fund shareholdersrelative to expenses on that date. If approved, the new pricing structure would also lead to more stable and predictable total expenses than shareholders experience today. Because most expenses of the underlying funds are eliminated, investment decisions would generally not affect the overall expenses that Freedom Fund shareholders pay.

Approval of New Advisory Contracts is Necessary for the New Pricing Structure

To implement the new pricing structure, Fidelity has proposed that Freedom Fund shareholders adopt amended and restated management contracts. The Board of Trustees of the Freedom Funds – including the independent Trustees – recommends that shareholders of each Freedom Fund approve their fund's amended and restated contract.

Participant Solicitation for Fidelity Freedom Funds Proxy

Fidelity Freedom Funds are currently soliciting proxies from shareholders, including your plan participants, to consider a change to the Funds' current expense structure.

About the vote

The proposed expense structure is designed to reduce overall expenses for Fidelity Freedom Fund shareholders and reduce any fluctuation in the Funds' expenses. Under the proposed expense structure, shareholders of the Fidelity Freedom Funds will continue to incur the Funds' operating expenses directly, while most underlying fund operating expenses will be waived.

If your participants have voting rights, D.F. King may call them directly

At this time, Fidelity has engaged D.F. King as the funds' proxy solicitor to obtain participant votes via phone. D.F. King will reach out to plan participants who were shareholders of record on August 29, 2016, to help secure their votes. There are a total of 39 Freedom Funds which invest in underlying Fidelity mutual funds that provide exposure to multiple asset classes. Shareholders of the Fidelity Freedom Funds will be asked to vote on each fund class.

Your plan participants may submit their proxies by phone by calling:

Retail class: 1-800-544-8544 or

Advisor or institutional class: 1-877-208-0098

Your plan participants' votes are critical, no matter how large or small the holdings may be. It is important that plan participantssubmit their proxies prior to the meeting on October 28, 2016. Please encourage your plan participants to submit their proxies promptly.

For your convenience, download aready-to-use employee message. For additional information about the proposal, see theQ&Aand thedetailed proxy materials.

If you as a sponsor vote on behalf of participants, you may receive a call

If you as plan sponsor have the right to vote shares in one of these plans, D.F. King or your Fidelity relationship manager may reach out to you to request that you vote these shares.

If you have any questions, please contact your Fidelity representative.
