The following information replaces the 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, 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.
