Fidelity retirement accounts. Refer to the program materials for details.
The following information replaces similar information found in "How to
Sell Shares" on page 18:
IF YOU ARE SELLING SOME BUT NOT ALL OF YOUR SHARES, leave at least $2,000
worth of shares in the account to keep it open ($500 for retirement
accounts).
The following information supplements information in the section entitled
"Transaction Details" beginning on page 23.
THE REDEMPTION FEE, if applicable, will be deducted from the amount of your
redemption. This fee is paid to the fund rather than FMR, and it does not
apply to shares that were acquired through reinvestment of distributions.
If shares you are redeeming were not all held for the same length of time,
those shares you held longest will be redeemed first for purposes of
determining whether the fee applies.
The following information replaces similar information found in
"Transaction Details" on page 25:
FIDELITY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO DEDUCT AN ANNUAL MAINTENANCE FEE of $12.00
from accounts with a value of less than $2,500 (including any amount paid
as a sales charge), subject to an annual maximum charge of $24.00 per
shareholder. It is expected that accounts will be valued on the second
Friday in November of each year. Accounts opened after September 30 will
not be subject to the fee for that year. The fee, which is payable to the
transfer agent, is designed to offset in part the relatively higher costs
of servicing smaller accounts. This fee will not be deducted from Fidelity
brokerage accounts, retirement accounts (except non-prototype retirement
accounts), accounts using regular investment plans, or if total assets in
Fidelity exceed $30,000. Eligibility for the $30,000 waiver is determined
by aggregating Fidelity accounts maintained by FSC or FBSI which are
registered under the same social security number or which list the same
social security number for the custodian of a Uniform Gifts/Transfers to
Minors Act account.
IF YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCE FALLS BELOW $2,000, you will be given 30 days'
notice to reestablish the minimum balance. If you do not increase your
balance, Fidelity reserves the right to close your account and send the
proceeds to you. Your shares will be redeemed at the NAV on the day your
account is closed.
The following information replaces similar information found on page 28:
