FIDELITY ABERDEEN STREET TRUST
SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS ADJOURNED UNTIL FEBRUARY 24, 2017
YOUR VOTE IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT
NO MATTER HOW LARGE OR SMALL YOUR HOLDINGS MAY BE
Dear Shareholder:
Please be aware that Fidelity Aberdeen Street Trust has adjourned the Special Meeting of Shareholders until February 24, 2017 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time (ET).
We have adjourned the special meeting of shareholders because we have not received the required number of votes to approve a new pricing structure for the Freedom Funds that will reduce the overall expenses that Freedom Fund shareholders pay and provide for less fluctuation in fund expenses, as described in the proxy statement. You may think your vote is not important, but the only way to pass the proposal to approve new management contracts that will REDUCE EXPENSES of each Freedom Fund (relative to each fund’s expenses as of March 31, 2016) is to vote your shares.
As a shareholder, you have the right to consider each proposal and vote your shares. Please take a few minutes sign, date and mail your proxy card or vote via the internet or over the phone via touch tone voting.
If you have already voted, thank you for your response. If you have further questions or want to vote over the phone, please see the contact information located in the table below for each fund and class, as applicable. Thank you.
