STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

THE FOLLOWING NON-FUNDAMENTAL LIMITATIONS REPLACE NON-FUNDAMENTAL
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS (III) AND (V) IN THE "INVESTMENT POLICIES AND
LIMITATIONS" SECTION BEGINNING ON PAGE 2:

(iii) The fund may borrow money only (a) from a bank or from a
registered investment company or portfolio for which FMR or an
affiliate serves as investment advisor or (b) by engaging in reverse
repurchase agreements with any party (reverse repurchase agreements
are treated as borrowings for purposes of fundamental investment
limitation (3)).

(v) The fund does not currently intend to lend assets other than
securities to other parties, except by (a) lending money (up to 15% of
the fund's net assets) to a registered investment company or portfolio
for which FMR or an affiliate serves as investment adviser or (b)
acquiring loans, loan participations, or other forms of direct debt
instruments and, in connection therewith, assuming any associated
unfunded commitments of the sellers. (This limitation does not apply
to purchases of debt securities or to repurchase agreements.)

THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION SUPPLEMENTS THE INFORMATION FOUND IN THE
"INVESTMENT POLICIES AND LIMITATIONS" SECTION ON PAGE 3:

For the purposes of normally investing at least 65% of the fund's
total assets in equity securities of companies that FMR believes have
the potential for dividend growth by either increasing their dividends
or commencing dividends, if none are currently paid, FMR interprets
"total assets" to exclude collateral received for securities lending
transactions.

THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION REPLACES THE THIRD PARAGRAPH UNDER THE
HEADING "EXPOSURE TO FOREIGN MARKETS" IN THE "INVESTMENT POLICIES AND
LIMITATIONS"SECTION ON PAGE 4:

It is anticipated that in most cases the best available market for
foreign securities will be on an exchange or in over-the-counter (OTC)
markets located outside of the United States. Foreign stock markets,
while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as
developed as those in the United States, and securities of some
foreign issuers may be less liquid and more volatile than securities
of comparable U.S. issuers. Foreign security trading, settlement and
custodial practices (including those involving securities settlement
where fund assets may be released prior to receipt of payment) are
often less developed than those in U.S. markets, and may result in
increased risk or substantial delays in the event of a failed trade or
the insolvency of, or breach of duty by, a foreign broker-dealer,
securities depository or foreign subcustodian. For example, many
foreign countries are less prepared than the United States to properly
process and calculate information related to dates from and after
January 1, 2000. As a result, some foreign markets, brokers, banks or
securities depositories could experience at least temporary
disruptions, which could result in difficulty buying and selling
securities in certain foreign markets and pricing foreign investments,
and foreign issuers could fail to pay timely dividends, interest or
principal. In addition, the costs associated with foreign investments,
including withholding taxes, brokerage commissions and custodial
costs, are generally higher than with U.S. investments.
