The following language supplements that found in the "Performance" section,
beginning on page 10.
The fund may be compared in advertising to Certificates of Deposit (CDs) or
other investments issued by banks. The fund differs from bank investments
in several respects. The fund may offer greater liquidity or higher
potential returns than CDs; but unlike CDs, the fund does not guarantee
your principal or your return.

The following language supplements that found in the section entitled
"Additional Purchase and Redemption Information" beginning on page 12.
The fund's sales charge will not apply...(11) if you are a registered
investment adviser (RIA) purchasing for your discretionary accounts,
provided you execute a Fidelity RIA load waiver agreement which specifies
certain aggregate minimum and operating provisions. This waiver is
available only for shares purchased directly from Fidelity, without a
broker, unless purchased through a brokerage firm which is a correspondent
of National Financial Services Corporation (NFSC). The waiver is
unavailable, however, if the RIA is part of an organization principally
engaged in the brokerage business, unless the brokerage firm in the
organization is an NFSC correspondent; (12) if you are a trust institution
or bank trust department purchasing for your non-discretionary,
non-retirement fiduciary accounts, provided you execute a Fidelity Trust
load waiver agreement which specifies certain aggregate minimum and
operating provisions. This waiver is available only for shares purchased
either directly from Fidelity or through a bank-affiliated broker, and is
unavailable if the trust department or institution is part of an
organization not principally engaged in banking or trust activities; (13)
to shares purchased as part of a pension or profit-sharing plan as defined
in Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code that maintains all of its
mutual fund assets in Fidelity mutual funds, provided the plan executes a
Fidelity non-prototype sales charge waiver request form confirming its
qualification; or (14) to shares purchased as part of a payroll deduction
program (including shares purchased in an amount not greater than $5,000 by
participants in the program within three months of the commencement of
their participation in the program from sources other than payroll
deduction) through an employer who has entered into a Fidelity payroll
deduction load waiver agreement and who (i) is a member of the Fidelity
Retirement Client Advisory Group and maintains an employee benefit plan
that either qualifies for exemption (1) above or is in the CORPORATEplan
for Retirement Program and has at least some of its plan assets in
Fidelity-managed products, or (ii) is a member of the Fidelity Retail
Advisory Group and has more than 500 employees.
