For a fund whose management contract with the investment adviser obligates the investment adviser to pay certain fund level expenses, the expenses in connection with preparing this Proxy Statement and its enclosures and all solicitations will be borne by the investment adviser. The investment adviser will reimburse brokerage firms and others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation material to the beneficial owners of shares.

Appendix A lists each fund’s investment adviser and its principal business address, as well as each fund’s auditor and fiscal year end. Each fund’s sub-adviser(s) and each sub-adviser’s principal business address are included in Appendix G. The principal business address of Fidelity Distributors Corporation, each fund’s principal underwriter and distribution agent, is 100 Salem Street, Smithfield, Rhode Island 02917.


If the enclosed proxy is executed and returned, or an internet or telephonic vote is delivered, that vote may nevertheless be revoked at any time prior to its use by written notification received by a trust, by the execution of a later-dated proxy, by a trust’s receipt of a subsequent valid internet or telephonic vote, or by attending the Meeting and voting in person.

All proxies solicited by the Board of Trustees that are properly executed and received by the Secretary prior to the Meeting, and are not revoked, will be voted at the Meeting. Shares represented by such proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions thereon. If no specification is made on a properly executed proxy, it will be voted FOR Proposals 1, 2, 3, and 4 and AGAINST Proposal 5. All shares that are voted and votes to ABSTAIN will be counted towards establishing a quorum, as will broker non-votes. (Broker non-votes are shares for which (i) the beneficial owner has not voted and (ii) the broker holding the shares does not have discretionary authority to vote on the particular matter.)

With respect to fund shares held in Fidelity individual retirement accounts (including Traditional, Rollover, SEP, SARSEP, Roth and SIMPLE IRAs), the IRA Custodian will vote those shares for which it has received instructions from shareholders only in accordance with such instructions. If Fidelity IRA shareholders do not vote their shares, the IRA Custodian will vote their shares for them, in the same proportion as other Fidelity IRA shareholders have voted.

With respect to Proposal 1, one-third of each trust’s outstanding voting securities entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the Meeting. With respect to Proposals 2, 3, 4, and 5, one-third of the impacted fund’s outstanding voting securities entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the Meeting. If a quorum is not present at a Meeting, or if a quorum is present at a Meeting but sufficient votes to approve one or more of the proposed items are not received, or if other matters arise requiring shareholder attention, the persons named as proxy agents may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares present at the Meeting or represented by proxy. When voting on a proposed adjournment, the persons named as proxy agents will vote FOR the proposed adjournment all shares that they are entitled to vote with respect to each item, unless directed to vote AGAINST an item, in which case such shares will be voted AGAINST the proposed adjournment with respect to that item. However, if sufficient votes to achieve quorum on Proposal 5 have not been received, the persons named as proxy agents may vote in favor of a proposed adjournment with respect to that item. A shareholder vote may be taken on one or more of the items in this Proxy Statement prior to such adjournment if sufficient votes have been received and it is otherwise appropriate.

Shares of each fund and class, if applicable, issued and outstanding as of July 31, 2017 are indicated in Appendix H.

Information regarding record and/or beneficial ownership of each fund and class, as applicable, is included in Appendix I.

Certain shares are registered to Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) or an FMR affiliate. To the extent that FMR and/or another entity or entities of which FMR LLC is the ultimate parent has discretion to vote, these shares will be voted at the Meeting FOR Proposals 1, 2, 3, and 4 and AGAINST Proposal 5. Otherwise, these shares will be voted in accordance with the plan or agreement governing the shares. Although the terms of the plans and agreements vary, generally the shares must be voted either (i) in accordance with instructions received from shareholders or (ii) in accordance with instructions received from shareholders and, for shareholders who do not vote, in the same proportion as certain other shareholders have voted. Certain funds and accounts that are managed by FMR or its affiliates (including funds of funds) invest in other funds and may at times have substantial investments in one or more funds. Although these funds generally intend to vote their shares of underlying funds using echo voting procedures (that is, in the same proportion as the holders of all other shares of the particular underlying fund), they reserve the right, on a case-by-case basis, to vote in another manner, which may include voting all shares as recommended by the Board.

Shareholders of record at the close of business on October 10, 2017 will be entitled to vote at the Meeting. Each such shareholder will be entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value held on that date, with fractional dollar amounts entitled to a proportional fractional vote.

For a free copy of each fund’s annual and/or semiannual reports, call Fidelity at 1-800-544-8544 (other than for Advisor classes), 1-877-208-0098 (Advisor classes only), or 1-800-FIDELITY (Fidelity ETFs), visit Fidelity’s web sites at www.fidelity.com or institutional.fidelity.com, or write to Fidelity Distributors Corporation at 100 Salem Street, Smithfield, Rhode Island 02917.

VOTE REQUIRED: Approval of Proposal 1 requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares of the applicable trust voted in person or by proxy at the Meeting. Approval of Proposals 2, 3, and 4 requires the affirmative vote of a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of the appropriate fund. Under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act), the vote of a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” means the affirmative

vote of the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the voting securities present at the Meeting or represented by proxy if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities. Approval of Proposal 5 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the appropriate fund voted in person or by proxy at the Meeting. With respect to Proposals 2, 3, 4, and 5, votes to ABSTAIN and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes cast AGAINST the Proposals. With respect to Proposal 1, votes to ABSTAIN and broker non-votes will have no effect.

PROPOSAL 1

TO ELECT A BOARD OF TRUSTEES

The purpose of this proposal is to elect a Board of Trustees that would combine oversight of your fund(s) with Fidelity’s broader equity and high income funds under a single Board of Trustees. You have received this proxy statement because you own one or more Fidelity sector fund(s) and you are being asked to elect a Board of Trustees to oversee your funds.

Fidelity’s mutual fund business and the broader mutual fund marketplace continue to expand and evolve. As a result, the Trustees of Fidelity’s Sector Portfolios, together with the Trustees of Fidelity’s Equity and High Income Funds, have been considering ways to structure oversight in a manner that ensures Fidelity’s mutual fund shareholders will continue to be well served by Trustees in the years ahead. As a result of its considerations, the Trustees of Fidelity’s Sector Portfolios – with the support of Fidelity – have made a decision to combine oversight of their funds with Fidelity’s Equity and High Income Funds under a combined Board. The combined Board will oversee nearly all of Fidelity’s equity, sector and high income funds (279 funds with approximate assets of over $1.1 trillion as of August 1, 2017).

The Board’s decision was based on several factors. First, combining the separate Boards will provide an opportunity for the funds to realize savings. More specifically, the significant increase in assets will allow the existing fees and expenses of the Independent Trustees as well as certain other expenses (e.g., insurance premiums) to be spread over a larger asset base. Also, nominating current Equity and High Income Trustees allows the funds to avoid the time and expense typically associated with identifying independent trustee candidates and provides the funds with a succession plan that includes Trustees with significant experience overseeing a broad range of Fidelity funds. Consolidating oversight of Fidelity’s diverse equity and high income products under a combined Board will also allow for the realization of greater efficiencies in the implementation, operation and oversight of Fidelity’s diverse and expanding equity and high income product line.

Additionally, incorporating members of Fidelity’s Equity and High Income Board will add to the Board’s breadth and depth of expertise. Currently, the Sector Portfolios Board oversees Fidelity’s sector and equity exchange-traded offerings and certain index funds only. The combined Board will incorporate members with a deep understanding of Fidelity’s numerous other equity disciplines. Combined, the Equity and High Income Trustee nominees have over 83 years’ experience overseeing these disciplines. The Trustees believe that all of Fidelity’s equity, sector and high income funds will benefit from the breadth and depth of knowledge as well as the experience of the Trustees of the combined Board.

Each proposed Trustee for the combined Board currently serves as Trustee on one of the current Boards. The 1940 Act requires that a shareholder meeting be held to elect Trustees. The funds will begin to operate under the combined Board on or about March 1, 2018, or, if later, immediately after the last election is held to elect Trustees in connection with this proposal for Fidelity’s Sector Portfolios. The Trustees fully expect that the environment of strong governance of the funds and protection of the interests of fund shareholders will continue under the combined Board.

Pursuant to the provisions of the Declaration of Trust of each trust, the Trustees have currently fixed the number of Trustees at 11 to accommodate each of the nominees discussed below. It is intended that the enclosed proxy will be voted for the nominees listed below unless such authority has been withheld in the proxy.

Appendix J shows the composition of the Board of Trustees of each trust and the length of service of each Trustee and member of the Advisory Board, if any. The trusts’ Governance and Nominating Committee recommended Mr. Donahue, a current Trustee or member of the Advisory Board of each trust, as applicable.

James C. Curvey, Dennis J. Dirks, Alan J. Lacy, Ned C. Lautenbach, Joseph Mauriello, Charles S. Morrison, Cornelia M. Small, and David M. Thomas are currently Trustees of Fidelity’s Equity and High Income Funds. Another executive officer of FMR LLC recommended Messrs. Curvey and Morrison. The trusts’ Governance and Nominating Committee recommended Messrs. Lacy, Lautenbach, Mauriello, and Thomas and Ms. Small.

As of September 1, 2017, Messrs. Smith and Wiley oversee 90 Fidelity funds, including the funds in this proxy statement. As of August 1, 2017, Mr. Donahue oversees 7 Fidelity funds as Trustee and is a member of the Advisory Board of 83 Fidelity funds, including the funds in this proxy statement. If elected, Messrs. Smith, Wiley, and Donahue will oversee 90 Fidelity funds (until such time as they are elected Trustee of Fidelity’s Equity and High Income Funds). As of September 1, 2017, Messrs. Curvey, Dirks, Lacy, Lautenbach, Mauriello, Morrison, and Thomas and Ms. Small oversee 190 Fidelity funds as Trustee, which do not include the funds in this proxy statement, and if elected will oversee 280 Fidelity funds.

[As of July 31, 2017, the Trustees and nominees for election as Trustees and the officers of the trusts and each fund owned, in the aggregate, less than 1% of each fund’s outstanding shares.]

[During the period December 1, 2015 through August 31, 2017, no transactions were entered into by Trustees and nominees as Trustee of the trust involving more than 1% of the voting common, non-voting common and equivalent stock, or preferred stock of FMR LLC.]

If elected, the Trustees will hold office without limit in time, except that (a) any Trustee may resign; (b) any Trustee may be removed by written instrument, signed by at least two-thirds of the number of Trustees prior to such removal; (c) any Trustee who requests to be retired or who has become incapacitated by illness or injury may be retired by written instrument signed by a majority of the other Trustees; and (d) any Trustee may be removed at any special meeting of shareholders by a two-thirds vote of the outstanding voting securities of the trust. Each Independent Trustee shall retire not later than the last day of the calendar year in which his or her 75th birthday occurs. The Independent Trustees may waive this mandatory retirement age policy with respect to individual Trustees. In case a vacancy shall for any reason exist, the remaining Trustees will fill such vacancy by appointing another Trustee, so long as, immediately after such appointment, at least two-thirds of the Trustees have been elected by shareholders. If, at any time, less than a majority of the Trustees holding office has been elected by the shareholders, the Trustees then in office will promptly call a shareholders’ meeting for the purpose of electing a Board of Trustees. Otherwise, there will normally be no meeting of shareholders for the purpose of electing Trustees. Advisory Board Members hold office without limit in time except that any Advisory Board Member may resign or may be removed by a vote of a majority of the Trustees at any regular meeting or any special meeting of the Trustees.

Appendix J shows the composition of the Board of Trustees of each trust and the length of service of each Trustee (see Appendix A for a list of each fund’s fiscal year end and Appendix K for the number of Board meetings held during each fund’s last fiscal year). Following the election, it is expected that each trust’s board will include two Interested Trustees and nine Independent Trustees and will meet at least four times a year at regularly scheduled meetings.

PROPOSAL 2

TO ELIMINATE A FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT POLICY

Fidelity Advisor® Biotechnology Fund, Fidelity Advisor® Communications Equipment Fund, Fidelity Advisor® Consumer Discretionary Fund, Fidelity Advisor® Energy Fund, Fidelity Advisor® Financial Services Fund, Fidelity Advisor® Health Care Fund, Fidelity Advisor® Industrials Fund, Fidelity Advisor® Semiconductors Fund, Fidelity Advisor® Technology Fund, Fidelity Advisor® Utilities Fund, Air Transportation Portfolio, Automotive Portfolio, Banking Portfolio, Biotechnology Portfolio, Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Chemicals Portfolio, Communications Equipment Portfolio, Computers Portfolio, Construction and Housing Portfolio, Consumer Discretionary Portfolio, Consumer Finance Portfolio, Consumer Staples Portfolio, Defense and Aerospace Portfolio, Energy Portfolio, Energy Service Portfolio, Environment and Alternative Energy Portfolio, Financial Services Portfolio, Gold Portfolio, Health Care Portfolio, Health Care Services Portfolio, Industrial Equipment Portfolio, Industrials Portfolio, Insurance Portfolio, IT Services Portfolio, Leisure Portfolio, Materials Portfolio, Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio, Multimedia Portfolio, Natural Gas Portfolio, Natural Resources Portfolio, Pharmaceuticals Portfolio, Retailing Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, Software and IT Services Portfolio, Technology Portfolio, Telecommunications Portfolio, Transportation Portfolio, Utilities Portfolio, and Wireless Portfolio

The purpose of this proposal is to eliminate the fund’s fundamental investment policy to invest primarily in certain types of investments. With the exception of four funds as discussed below, eliminating the fundamental investment policy will not affect how the funds are managed.

Each fund listed above is designed to offer targeted exposure to the stocks of companies in specific segments of the economy, including sectors, industry groups, industries and sub-industries. Companies within a particular segment of the economy are grouped together based on their type of business. These segments are maintained by independent third-party research firms and are periodically updated to ensure the classification structure continues to represent the global equity markets.

Under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules, each fund is required to have a policy to invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its assets in the particular type of investments, or in investments in the particular industry or industries, suggested by its name (this type of investment policy is commonly referred to as a “name test policy”). Each fund’s name test policy can only be changed with approval of the fund’s Board and 60 days’ prior notice to shareholders. Separately, each fund has also approved a policy of investing primarily in companies engaged in specified activities that are suggested by its name. Each fund’s “invest primarily” policy is fundamental, which means that it can only be changed after approval by the fund’s shareholders. Each fund’s fundamental “invest primarily” policy is set forth in Appendix N.

Because each fund’s fundamental “invest primarily” policy can only be changed with shareholder approval, it is difficult for the fund to update its investment policies in response to changes to the market segment to which it offers exposure. As a result, each fund is proposing to eliminate its “invest primarily” policy. By eliminating this policy, each fund will be able to react in a timely and cost-effective manner to updates to its particular market segment that may create disconnects between the fund’s investment policies and the industry groups, industries and sub-industries in which it may invest. To the extent that changes to a market segment require a fund to modify its name test policy, shareholders will receive 60 days’ prior notice before any change is implemented. With the exception of Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, and Fidelity Advisor Semiconductors Fund, there is no present intention to change the way in which any fund is currently managed if the proposal is approved. Elimination of the “invest primarily” policy would bring the funds’ name test policies in line with those of all other Fidelity funds.

For each of Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, and Fidelity Advisor Semiconductors Fund, the Board has approved certain changes to the fund’s name test policy and certain related changes to the funds, as set forth below, that will take effect only if shareholders approve the proposal to eliminate the fund’s fundamental “invest primarily” policy. Shareholders are not being asked to approve these changes directly, but rather if shareholders approve the elimination of a fund’s fundamental “invest primarily” policy, the investment adviser will implement these changes.

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its assets in securities of companies principally engaged in the design, manufacture, or sale of semiconductors and semiconductor equipment [electronic components (semiconductors, connectors, printed circuit boards and other components)]; equipment vendors to semiconductor and electronic component manufacturers; semiconductor and electronic component distributors; and related instruments and systems vendors [electronic instruments and electronic systems vendors].

 

These companies may include, for example, manufacturers of [semiconductor and] semiconductor equipment [manufacturers and manufacturers of electronic equipment, instruments or components] and related products, including solar modules and cells and the raw material and equipment used in the solar power industry.

Fidelity Advisor Semiconductors Fund (formerly Fidelity Advisor Electronics Fund)    No change    Same changes as Semiconductors Portfolio

For Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio and Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio, the changes will expand the universe of potential investment opportunities while remaining consistent with the fund’s general investment theme. SelectCo believes a broader investment focus for these funds will present more investment opportunities and help

ensure each fund’s investment focus and strategy remains viable over the long term. These changes will also enable each fund to invest consistently with the market segment to which it offers exposure. Recently, MSCI, the benchmark provider for Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, broadened the fund’s performance benchmark along these same parameters. Broadening the fund policies that define its investment universe will allow the fund to stay aligned with its performance benchmark.

For Semiconductors Portfolio and Fidelity Advisor Semiconductors Fund, the modification to each fund’s name test policy to focus on “semiconductors” rather than “electronics” would better communicate each fund’s long term investment focus and positioning in the marketplace, as also reflected in the recent change to each fund’s name. The electronics industry has evolved dramatically over the past few decades and the term “electronics” is a broad term that could apply to many companies in many different industries. In contrast, the term “semiconductors” more fully describes each fund’s investment focus on manufacturers of semiconductors and related products and of semiconductor equipment, including raw materials and equipment used for solar power. The changes will modestly narrow the investment focus of the funds.

In the event shareholders of Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, or Fidelity Advisor Semiconductors Fund do not approve the elimination of the fundamental “invest primarily” policy, the changes described above will not go into effect for the fund. If shareholders of a fund approve the proposal, the changes described above for that fund will take effect, and future changes to the types of securities in which the fund primarily invests could also be made with approval of the fund’s Board, but without shareholder approval. Shareholders would receive 60 days’ notice of any change that results in a change to the fund’s name test policy.

Conclusion. The Board of Trustees has concluded that the proposal will benefit each fund and its shareholders. The Trustees recommend voting FOR the proposal. With respect to each fund, if the elimination of the fundamental “invest primarily” policy is approved by shareholders, the change (including the additional changes described above for Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, and Fidelity Advisor Semiconductors Fund) will take effect on January 1, 2018, or on the first day of the month following shareholder approval if the meeting is adjourned. If Proposal 2 is not approved by a fund’s shareholders, the “invest primarily” policy will remain a fundamental policy for that fund. For funds voting on one or more of Proposals 2, 3, and 4, no proposal is contingent on one another, meaning that a proposal will be implemented if approved by a fund’s shareholders, even if that fund’s shareholders have not also approved the other proposal(s).

PROPOSAL 3

TO MODIFY THE FUND’S FUNDAMENTAL CONCENTRATION POLICY

Fidelity Advisor Biotechnology Fund, Fidelity Advisor Semiconductors Fund, Air Transportation Portfolio, Automotive Portfolio, Biotechnology Portfolio, Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Chemicals Portfolio, Computers Portfolio, Defense and Aerospace Portfolio, Energy Portfolio, Energy Service Portfolio, Financial Services Portfolio, Gold Portfolio, Health Care Portfolio, Health Care Services Portfolio, Industrial Equipment Portfolio, Insurance Portfolio, Leisure Portfolio, Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio, Multimedia Portfolio, Natural Gas Portfolio, Natural Resources Portfolio, Pharmaceuticals Portfolio, Retailing Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, Software and IT Services Portfolio, Technology Portfolio, Telecommunications Portfolio, Transportation Portfolio, Utilities Portfolio, and Wireless Portfolio

The purpose of this proposal is to modify the industry concentration policy for each fund listed above to standardize the concentration policies for the Fidelity sector funds. The 1940 Act requires funds to state a policy regarding concentration of investments in a particular industry, and to make the policy fundamental (changeable only by shareholder vote). The SEC has taken the position that a fund that invests more than 25% of its total assets in a particular industry is concentrating its investments.

Each fund listed above has a fundamental concentration policy that refers generically to the fund’s investment strategy, while the concentration policies for the other Fidelity sector funds cite specific industries. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, has approved, and recommends that shareholders approve, proposed changes to the applicable funds’ concentration policies to standardize the approach with that used by the other Fidelity sector funds.

As described above in Proposal 2, each fund is designed to offer targeted exposure to stocks of companies in specific sector, industry, or sub-industry groups. By modifying the concentration policy as proposed, each fund’s concentration policy will specifically cite the fund’s name while providing flexibility in determining whether an issuer is principally engaged in activities related to the named industry.

The proposed concentration policies would simply describe more explicitly how the funds already invest. There is no present intention to change the way in which any fund is currently managed or otherwise change a fund’s investment

policies if the proposal is approved by that fund’s shareholders. In this regard, the changes to Brokerage and Investment Management Portfolio, Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio, Semiconductors Portfolio, and Fidelity Advisor Semiconductors Fund described above under Proposal 2 will take effect if Proposal 2 is approved by the applicable fund’s shareholders, regardless of whether the fund’s shareholders also approve Proposal 3. However, if Proposal 3 is approved by Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio’s shareholders, the specific language included in the fund’s revised concentration policy is dependent on whether Proposal 2 has been approved by the fund’s shareholders. Specifically, if shareholders of Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio approve Proposal 3 and not Proposal 2, the revised concentration policy will reflect the fund’s current name, but if shareholders approve both proposals, the revised policy will reflect the fund’s new name.

The proposed changes to each fund’s concentration policy are set forth in the chart below (new language is bold and deleted language is [bracketed]). Each fund’s concentration policy would continue to be subject to the “look through” and other interpretive disclosure included in the fund’s current statement of additional information.

If the modification to the fundamental concentration policy is not approved by a fund’s shareholders, the existing concentration policy will remain in effect for that fund. For funds voting on one or more of Proposals 2, 3, and 4, no proposal is contingent on one another, meaning that a proposal will be implemented if approved by a fund’s shareholders, even if that fund’s shareholders have not also approved the other proposal(s). However, as described above, if Proposal 3 is approved by Medical Equipment and Systems Portfolio’s shareholders, the specific language included in the fund’s revised concentration policy is dependent on whether shareholders of the fund have also approved Proposal 2.

PROPOSAL 4

TO CHANGE THE FUND FROM A DIVERSIFIED FUND TO A NON-DIVERSIFIED FUND

Fidelity Advisor Financial Services Fund, Fidelity Advisor Health Care Fund, Banking Portfolio, Financial Services Portfolio, Natural Resources Portfolio, Fidelity MSCI Industrials Index ETF, and Fidelity Nasdaq Composite Index® Tracking Stock

The purpose of this proposal is to eliminate each fund’s fundamental policy concerning diversification so that the fund would be allowed to return to operating as a “non-diversified” fund. If shareholders approve this proposal, each fund would be able to focus its investments more heavily in securities of fewer issuers. When each fund was initially launched, it was classified as “non-diversified.” Subsequent to launch, each fund automatically re-classified as “diversified” by operation of law.

Generally, diversification reduces risk and non-diversification increases risk. You are being asked to change each fund from diversified to non-diversified, or to make it potentially a riskier fund.

This proposal is intended to empower the investment adviser to decide to allocate risk in relation to expected return with the freedom to invest larger portions of each fund’s portfolio in a single issuer. Though it is an unlikely scenario, in theory the investment adviser could potentially invest up to 25% of the fund’s assets in two issuers.

The main purpose of this flexibility is to allow each fund to take over 5% positions that in the aggregate exceed 25% of fund assets. The investment adviser believes that this increased investment flexibility may provide opportunities to enhance the fund’s performance or, in the case of index funds, allow the fund to track the index more closely if the index becomes more concentrated than the current limit would allow. Of course, if the investment adviser invests a significant percentage of the fund’s assets in a single issuer, the fund’s performance would be closely tied to the market value of that issuer, and could be more volatile (riskier) than the performance of diversified funds. Investing a larger percentage of the fund’s assets in a single issuer’s securities increases the fund’s exposure to credit and other risks associated with that issuer’s financial condition and business operations. The investment adviser will use this increased flexibility to acquire larger positions in the securities of a single issuer only if and when it believes doing so justifies the risks involved.

Each fund currently is “diversified,” as defined in the 1940 Act. As a 1940 Act diversified fund, the fund must invest at least 75% of its assets so that no more than 5% of its total assets is invested in the securities of any one issuer. As to the remaining 25% of total assets, there is no limitation on the amount of assets the fund may invest in a single issuer. The principal difference between a diversified fund and a non-diversified fund is that a non-diversified fund may invest over 5% of its assets in a greater number of issuers.

Each fund’s current fundamental diversification limitation is as follows:

“The fund may not with respect to 75% of the fund’s total assets, purchase the securities of any issuer (other than securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities, or securities of other investment companies) if, as a result, (a) more than 5% of the fund’s total assets would be invested in the securities of that issuer, or (b) the fund would hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of that issuer.”

Because the above investment policy is fundamental, it cannot be changed or eliminated without shareholder approval. The Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, recommend that shareholders vote to eliminate the above limitation for each fund.

If shareholders approve this proposal, the investment adviser may operate each fund as non-diversified or it may not. The investment adviser will reserve the freedom of action to operate the fund as non-diversified only if and when the investment adviser believes it would be in shareholders’ best interests to do so, provided that if the investment adviser does not operate the fund as non-diversified within three years of shareholder approval, 1940 Act rules will require the investment adviser to again seek shareholder approval to reserve the freedom of action to operate the fund as non-diversified.

If shareholders approve this proposal, the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, intend to adopt the following non-fundamental limitation concerning diversification for each fund:

“In order to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the fund currently intends to comply with certain diversification limits imposed by Subchapter M.”

 

13


Under Subchapter M (the tax code), each fund is now (and will remain) restricted to holding 25% of its assets in any one issuer and to holding no more than two 25% positions. The tax code requirements are generally applied at the end of each quarter of the fund’s taxable year.

The proposal would, as a legal matter, also allow each fund to hold a greater number of over 10% positions in the voting securities of an issuer. The investment adviser does not currently expect that approval of this proposal will materially affect the way in which the fund is managed with regard to the number of over 10% positions.

Conclusion. The Board of Trustees has concluded that the proposal will benefit the fund and its shareholders. The Trustees recommend voting FOR the proposal. If Proposal 4 is approved by shareholders, the proposed change will take effect on January 1, 2018, or on the first day of the month following shareholder approval if the meeting is adjourned. For funds voting on one or more of Proposals 2, 3, and 4, no proposal is contingent on one another, meaning that a proposal will be implemented if approved by a fund’s shareholders, even if that fund’s shareholders have not also approved the other proposal(s).

PROPOSAL 5

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSAL REQUESTING THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES INSTITUTE PROCEDURES TO AVOID HOLDING INVESTMENTS IN COMPANIES THAT, IN MANAGEMENT’S JUDGMENT, SUBSTANTIALLY CONTRIBUTE TO GENOCIDE OR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY

Fidelity Real Estate Investment Portfolio, Fidelity Telecom and Utilities Fund, Computers Portfolio, and Health Care Portfolio

Certain shareholders of Fidelity Real Estate Investment Portfolio, Fidelity Telecom and Utilities Fund, Computers Portfolio, and Health Care Portfolio (for purposes of Proposal 5 only, each a “Fund”) have advised the Funds that they intend to present the following shareholder proposal at the Meeting. For the reasons set forth after the proposal, the Board of Trustees recommends a vote “AGAINST” the proposal. No Fund is responsible for the contents of the proposal or the supporting statements. A Fund will provide the names, addresses, and shareholdings (to the Fund’s knowledge) of the proponents of a shareholder proposal upon written request sent to the Secretary of the Fund, attention “Fund Shareholder Meetings,” 245 Summer Street, Mailzone V10A, Boston, Massachusetts 02210, or by calling 1-617-563-9021.

Proposal

WHEREAS

We believe that:

1. Investors do not want their investments to help fund genocide.

a) While reasonable people may disagree about socially responsible investing, few want their investments to help fund genocide.

b) KRC Research’s 2010 study showed that 88% of respondents want their mutual funds to be genocide-free.

c) Millions of Fidelity investors have voted for genocide-free investing proposals, submitted by supporters of Investors Against Genocide, despite active management opposition. As many as 29% of Fidelity shareholders voted in favor in 2013 and 31% in 2008.

d) In 2012, a genocide-free investing proposal at an ING mutual fund passed decisively, 59.8% to 10.7% with 29.5% abstaining.

2. The example of PetroChina shows that current policies do not adequately support genocide-free investing because Fidelity and the funds it manages:

a) Are large and long-term investors in PetroChina. PetroChina, through its controlling shareholder, China National Petroleum Company, is Sudan’s largest business partner, thereby helping fund ongoing government-sponsored genocide and crimes against humanity.

b) Unnecessarily expose shareholders to the significant financial, operational and reputational risks of the China National Petroleum group’s operations in areas affected by genocide and mass atrocities.

c) Actively opposed earlier shareholder requests for genocide-free investing.

d) Continued to buy shares of problem companies even after becoming aware of the investments’ connection to genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan.

 

14


e) Claimed to have a policy addressing extreme human rights issues, but has taken no action to avoid problem investments.

f) Made investments in PetroChina that, while legal, are inconsistent with U.S. sanctions explicitly prohibiting transactions relating to Sudan’s petroleum industry.

3. Individuals, through ownership of shares of Fidelity funds, may inadvertently invest in companies that help support genocide. With no policy to prevent these investments, Fidelity may at any time add or increase holdings in problem companies.

4. No sound reasons prevent having a genocide-free investing policy because:

a) Ample alternative investments exist.

b) Avoiding problem companies need not have a significant effect on investment performance, as shown in Gary Brinson’s classic asset allocation study.

c) Only a handful of Fidelity’s U.S. funds would be affected, because most of Fidelity’s holdings of problem companies such as PetroChina are by Fidelity funds sold outside the U.S.

d) Appropriate disclosure can address any legal concerns regarding the exclusion of problem companies.

e) Management can easily obtain independent assessments to identify companies connected to genocide.

f) Other large financial firms such as T. Rowe Price and TIAA-CREF have avoided investments connected to genocide by divesting problem companies such as PetroChina.

5. Investor action can influence foreign governments, as in South Africa, Similar action on Talisman Energy helped end the conflict in South Sudan.

RESOLVED

Shareholders request that the Board institute transparent procedures to avoid holding investments in companies that, in management’s judgment, substantially contribute to genocide or crimes against humanity, the most egregious violations of human rights. Such procedures may include time-limited engagement with problem companies if management believes that their behavior can be changed.

Statement of Opposition

SelectCo, as investment adviser to the Funds, seeks to achieve the best investment results for each Fund consistent with the stated investment policies of the relevant Fund. In doing so, SelectCo is obligated to limit such Fund’s investments to holdings that are lawful under the laws of the United States. The Board of Trustees has procedures in place to review SelectCo’s performance as investment adviser to the Funds, including each Fund’s compliance with all applicable laws.

United States law prohibits investments in companies owned or controlled by the government of Sudan. SelectCo is committed to complying fully with these investment sanctions and any additional investment sanctions that the United States government might enact with respect to companies doing business in Sudan or any other country.

The Board of Trustees recognizes and respects that investors, including those investing in the Funds, have other investment opportunities open to them should they wish to avoid investments in certain companies or countries. Shareholders of the Funds, however, choose to invest based on the specific stated investment policies of the relevant fund. If adopted, this proposal would limit investments by the Funds that would be lawful under the laws of the United States. For this reason, the Board of Trustees recommends that you vote AGAINST this proposal.

OTHER BUSINESS

The Board knows of no other business to be brought before the Meeting. However, if any other matters properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention that proxies that do not contain specific instructions to the contrary will be voted on such matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons therein designated.

BOARD STRUCTURE AND OVERSIGHT FUNCTION AND

STANDING COMMITTEES OF THE FUNDS’ TRUSTEES

Correspondence intended for each Independent Trustee may be sent to the attention of the individual Trustee or to the Board of Trustees at Fidelity Investments, P.O. Box 55235, Boston, Massachusetts 02205-5235. Correspondence intended for each Interested Trustee may be sent to the attention of the individual Trustee or to the Board of Trustees at Fidelity Investments, 245 Summer Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02210. The current process for collecting and organizing shareholder communications requires that the Board of Trustees receive copies of all communications addressed to it. All communications addressed to the Board of Trustees or any individual Trustee are logged and sent to the Board or individual Trustee, respectively. The funds do not hold annual shareholder meetings and therefore do not have a policy with regard to Trustees’ attendance at such meetings. However, as a matter of practice, at least one Trustee attends special meetings.

Mr. Hogan is an interested person and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chairman, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chairman and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. Mr. Wiley serves as Chairman of the Independent Trustees and as such (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.

Fidelity funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds’ Board currently oversees Fidelity’s sector portfolios and is proposed to be combined with the Board that oversees Fidelity’s equity and high income funds. Another Board oversees Fidelity’s investment grade bond, money market, and asset allocation funds. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity funds overseen by each Board.

The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the funds, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds’ activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged SelectCo, FMR Co., Inc., and FMR (collectively referred to as the adviser) and the adviser’s affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds’ business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because the day-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through the adviser, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds’ exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board’s committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds’ activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations and Audit Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds’ Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), the adviser’s internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds’ Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board’s committees, as appropriate.

The Board of Trustees has established various committees to support the Independent Trustees in acting independently in pursuing the best interests of the funds and their shareholders. Currently, the Board of Trustees has four standing committees. The members of each committee are Independent Trustees. See Appendix K for the number of meetings each standing committee held during each fund’s last fiscal year.

The Operations Committee is composed of all of the Independent Trustees, with Mr. Wiley currently serving as Chair. The committee normally meets at least four times a year, or more frequently as called by the Chair, and serves as a forum for consideration of issues of importance to, or calling for particular determinations by, the Independent Trustees. The committee considers matters involving potential conflicts of interest between the funds and the adviser and its affiliates and reviews proposed contracts and the proposed continuation of contracts between the funds and the adviser and its affiliates, and annually reviews and makes recommendations regarding contracts with third parties unaffiliated with the adviser, including insurance coverage and custody agreements. The committee has oversight of compliance issues not specifically within the scope of any other committee. These matters include, but are not limited to, significant non-conformance with contract requirements and other significant regulatory matters and recommending to the Board of Trustees the designation of a person to serve as the funds’ CCO. The committee (i) serves as the primary point of contact for the CCO with regard to Board-related functions; (ii) oversees the annual performance review of the CCO; (iii) makes recommendations concerning the CCO’s compensation; and (iv) makes recommendations as needed in respect of the removal of the CCO. The committee is also responsible for definitive action on all compliance matters involving the potential for significant reimbursement by the adviser.

The Audit Committee is composed of all of the Independent Trustees, with Mr. Rosow currently serving as Chair. All committee members must be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement. At least one committee member will be an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the SEC. The committee normally meets four times a year, or more frequently as called by the Chair. The committee meets separately at least annually with the funds’ Treasurer, with the funds’ Chief Financial Officer, with personnel responsible for the internal audit function of FMR LLC, and with the funds’ outside auditors. The committee has direct responsibility for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the work of the outside auditors employed by the funds. The committee assists the Trustees in overseeing and monitoring: (i) the systems of internal accounting and financial controls of the funds and the funds’ service providers (to the extent such controls impact the funds’ financial statements); (ii) the funds’ auditors and the annual audits of the funds’ financial statements; (iii) the financial reporting processes of the funds; (iv) whistleblower reports; and (v) the accounting policies and disclosures of the funds. The committee considers and acts upon (i) the provision by any outside auditor of any non-audit services for any fund, and (ii) the provision by any outside auditor of certain non-audit services to fund service providers and their affiliates to the extent that such approval (in the case

 

20


of this clause (ii)) is required under applicable regulations of the SEC. In furtherance of the foregoing, the committee has adopted (and may from time to time amend or supplement) and provides oversight of policies and procedures for non-audit engagements by outside auditors of the funds. It is responsible for approving all audit engagement fees and terms for the funds and for resolving disagreements between a fund and any outside auditor regarding any fund’s financial reporting. Auditors of the funds report directly to the committee. The committee will obtain assurance of independence and objectivity from the outside auditors, including a formal written statement delineating all relationships between the auditor and the funds and any service providers consistent with the rules of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. It oversees and receives reports on the funds’ service providers’ internal controls and reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the service providers’ accounting and financial controls, including: (i) any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting that are reasonably likely to adversely affect the funds’ ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data; (ii) any change in the fund’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the fund’s internal control over financial reporting; and (iii) any fraud, whether material or not, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the funds’ or service providers internal controls over financial reporting. The committee will also review any correspondence with regulators or governmental agencies or published reports that raise material issues regarding the funds’ financial statements or accounting policies. These matters may also be reviewed by the Operations Committee. The committee reviews at least annually a report from each outside auditor describing any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality control, peer review, or Public Company Accounting Oversight Board examination of the auditing firm and any material issues raised by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities of the auditing firm and in each case any steps taken to deal with such issues. The committee will oversee and receive reports on the funds’ financial reporting process, will discuss with SelectCo, the funds’ Treasurer, outside auditors and, if appropriate, internal audit personnel of FMR LLC their qualitative judgments about the appropriateness and acceptability of accounting principles and financial disclosure practices used or proposed for adoption by the funds. The committee will review with the adviser, the funds’ outside auditor, internal audit personnel of FMR LLC and, as appropriate, legal counsel the results of audits of the funds’ financial statements. The committee will review periodically the funds’ major internal controls exposures and the steps that have been taken to monitor and control such exposures.

The Fair Valuation Committee is composed of all of the Independent Trustees, with Mr. Wiley currently serving as Chair. The Committee normally meets quarterly, or more frequently as called by the Chair. The Fair Valuation Committee reviews and approves annually Fair Value Committee Policies recommended by the SelectCo and FMR Fair Value Committees and oversees particular valuations or fair valuation methodologies employed by the SelectCo and FMR Fair Value Committees as circumstances may require. The Committee also reviews actions taken by the SelectCo and FMR Fair Value Committees. The Committee does not oversee the day-to-day operational aspects of the valuation and calculation of the net asset value of the funds, which have been delegated to the SelectCo or FMR Fair Value Committees, as applicable, and Fidelity Service Company, Inc.

The Governance and Nominating Committee is composed of all of the Independent Trustees, with Mr. Wiley currently serving as Chair. The committee meets as called by the Chair. With respect to fund governance and board administration matters, the committee periodically reviews procedures of the Board of Trustees and its committees (including committee charters) and periodically reviews compensation of Independent Trustees. The committee monitors corporate governance matters and makes recommendations to the Board of Trustees on the frequency and structure of the Board of Trustee meetings and on any other aspect of Board procedures. It acts as the administrative committee under the fee deferral plan for Independent Trustees. It reviews the performance of legal counsel employed by the funds and the Independent Trustees. On behalf of the Independent Trustees, the committee will make such findings and determinations as to the independence of counsel for the Independent Trustees as may be necessary or appropriate under applicable regulations or otherwise. The committee is also responsible for Board administrative matters applicable to Independent Trustees, such as expense reimbursement policies and compensation for attendance at meetings, conferences and other events. The committee monitors compliance with, acts as the administrator of, and makes determinations in respect of, the provisions of the code of ethics and any supplemental policies regarding personal securities transactions applicable to the Independent Trustees. The committee monitors the functioning of each Board committee and makes recommendations for any changes, including the creation or elimination of standing or ad hoc Board committees. The committee monitors regulatory and other developments to determine whether to recommend modifications to the committee’s responsibilities or other Trustee policies and procedures in light of rule changes, reports concerning “best practices” in corporate governance and other developments in mutual fund governance. The committee meets with Independent Trustees at least once a year to discuss matters relating to fund governance. The committee recommends that the Board establish such special or ad hoc Board committees as may be desirable or necessary from time to time in order to address ethical, legal, or other matters that may arise. The committee also oversees the annual self-evaluation of the Board of Trustees and establishes procedures to allow

 

21


it to exercise this oversight function. In conducting this oversight, the committee shall address all matters that it considers relevant to the performance of the Board of Trustees and shall report the results of its evaluation to the Board of Trustees, including any recommended amendments to the principles of governance, and any recommended changes to the funds’ or the Board of Trustees’ policies, procedures, and structures. The committee reviews periodically the size and composition of the Board of Trustees as a whole and recommends, if necessary, measures to be taken so that the Board of Trustees reflects the appropriate balance of knowledge, experience, skills, expertise, and diversity required for the Board as a whole and contains at least the minimum number of Independent Trustees required by law. The committee makes nominations for the election or appointment of Independent Trustees and non-management Members of any Advisory Board, and for membership on committees. The committee has the authority to retain and terminate any third-party advisers, including authority to approve fees and other retention terms. Such advisers may include search firms to identify Independent Trustee candidates and board compensation consultants. The committee may conduct or authorize investigations into or studies of matters within the committee’s scope of responsibilities, and may retain, at the funds’ expense, such independent counsel or other advisers as it deems necessary. The committee will consider nominees to the Board of Trustees recommended by shareholders based upon the criteria applied to candidates presented to the committee by a search firm or other source. Recommendations, along with appropriate background material concerning the candidate that demonstrates his or her ability to serve as an Independent Trustee of the funds, should be submitted to the Chair of the committee at the address maintained for communications with Independent Trustees. If the committee retains a search firm, the Chair will generally forward all such submissions to the search firm for evaluation. With respect to the criteria for selecting Independent Trustees, it is expected that all candidates will possess the following minimum qualifications: (i) unquestioned personal integrity; (ii) not an interested person of the funds within the meaning of the 1940 Act; (iii) does not have a material relationship (e.g., commercial, banking, consulting, legal, or accounting) with the adviser, any sub-adviser or their affiliates that could create an appearance of lack of independence in respect of the funds; (iv) has the disposition to act independently in respect of the adviser and its affiliates and others in order to protect the interests of the funds and all shareholders; (v) ability to attend regularly scheduled Board meetings during the year; (vi) demonstrates sound business judgment gained through broad experience in significant positions where the candidate has dealt with management, technical, financial, or regulatory issues; (vii) sufficient financial or accounting knowledge to add value in the complex financial environment of the funds; (viii) experience on corporate or other institutional oversight bodies having similar responsibilities, but which board memberships or other relationships could not result in business or regulatory conflicts with the funds; and (ix) capacity for the hard work and attention to detail that is required to be an effective Independent Trustee in light of the funds’ complex regulatory, operational, and marketing setting. The Governance and Nominating Committee may determine that a candidate who does not have the type of previous experience or knowledge referred to above should nevertheless be considered as a nominee if the Governance and Nominating Committee finds that the candidate has additional qualifications such that his or her qualifications, taken as a whole, demonstrate the same level of fitness to serve as an Independent Trustee. A current copy of the Governance and Nominating Committee Charter is available at http://www.fidelity.com and is attached as Exhibit 1.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRMS

The firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) or Deloitte & Touche LLP (Deloitte), the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, and their respective affiliates (collectively, Deloitte Entities), has been selected as the independent registered public accounting firm for each fund, as indicated in Appendix A. PwC and Deloitte Entities, in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules, have confirmed to the Audit Committee of each trust, as applicable, that they are the independent registered public accounting firms with respect to the funds.

The independent registered public accounting firms audit annual financial statements for the funds and provide other audit-related, non-audit, and tax-related services to the funds. Representatives of PwC and Deloitte Entities are not expected to be present at the Meeting, but have been given the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available should any matter arise requiring their presence.

Each trust’s Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by a fund’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to the operations or financial reporting of the funds. Prior to the commencement of any audit or non-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.

Each trust’s Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures to, among other purposes, provide a framework for the Committee’s consideration of non-audit services by the audit firms that audit the Fidelity funds. The policies and procedures require that any non-audit service provided by a fund audit firm to a Fidelity fund and any non-audit service provided by a fund auditor to the adviser and entities controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser

 

22


(not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) that provide ongoing services to the funds (Fund Service Providers) that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund (Covered Service) are subject to approval by the Audit Committee before such service is provided. All Covered Services must be approved in advance of provision of the service either: (i) by formal resolution of the Audit Committee, or (ii) by oral or written approval of the service by the Chair of the Audit Committee (or if the Chair is unavailable, such other member of the Audit Committee as may be designated by the Chair to act in the Chair’s absence). The approval contemplated by (ii) above is permitted where the Treasurer determines that action on such an engagement is necessary before the next meeting of the Audit Committee.

Non-audit services provided by a fund audit firm to a Fund Service Provider that do not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund (Non-Covered Service) are reported to the Audit Committee on a periodic basis.

Each trust’s Audit Committee has considered non-audit services that were not pre-approved that were provided by PwC and Deloitte Entities to Fund Service Providers to be compatible with maintaining the independence of PwC and Deloitte Entities in their audit of the funds, taking into account representations from PwC and Deloitte Entities, in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules, regarding their independence from the funds and their related entities and the adviser’s review of the appropriateness and permissibility under applicable law of such non-audit services prior to their provision to the Fund Service Providers.

Fees and Services

Appendix O presents fees billed by PwC and Deloitte Entities in each of the last two fiscal years for services rendered to the funds.

Appendix P presents fees billed by PwC and Deloitte Entities that were required to be approved by each trust’s Audit Committee for services that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the funds and that are rendered on behalf of Fund Service Providers.

Appendix Q presents the aggregate non-audit fees billed by PwC and Deloitte Entities for services rendered to the funds and any Fund Service Provider for each of the last two fiscal years of the funds.

There were no non-audit services approved or required to be approved by the trusts’ Audit Committee pursuant to the de minimis exception during the funds’ last two fiscal years relating to services provided to (i) the funds or (ii) any Fund Service Provider that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the funds.

SUBMISSION OF CERTAIN SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

The trusts do not hold annual shareholder meetings. Shareholders wishing to submit proposals for inclusion in a proxy statement for a subsequent shareholder meeting should send their written proposals to the Secretary of the funds, attention “Fund Shareholder Meetings,” 245 Summer Street, Mailzone V10A, Boston, Massachusetts 02210. Proposals must be received a reasonable time before a fund begins to print and send its proxy materials to be considered for inclusion in the proxy materials for the meeting. Timely submission of a proposal does not, however, necessarily mean the proposal will be included. With respect to proposals submitted on an untimely basis and presented at a shareholder meeting, persons named as proxy agents will vote in their discretion.

NOTICE TO BANKS, BROKER-DEALERS AND

VOTING TRUSTEES AND THEIR NOMINEES

EXHIBIT 1

Sector Portfolios

Governance and Nominating Committee Charter

 

A. Background

The investment companies managed by Fidelity SelectCo, LLC (collectively with its affiliates, “Fidelity”) comprising the Sector Portfolios of the Fidelity Funds are referred to as the “Funds”1; the Boards of Trustees of the Funds are referred to collectively as the “Board of Trustees” and the members are referred to as the “Trustees”; Trustees who are not “interested persons” (as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) of the Funds are referred to as the “Independent Trustees”; and committees of the Boards of Trustees are referred to as “Board Committees”.

The Committee shall meet at least four times annually or more frequently as circumstances require. The Chair or a majority of the members of the Committee may call a special meeting of the Committee.

 

 

1  The Term “Funds” includes all of the Funds managed by Fidelity SelectCo, LLC.

 

24


(b) A majority of the members of the Committee, present in person or by means of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other, shall constitute a quorum. The Committee may take action by written consent if at least the number of Trustees required for approval of such action at a meeting of Trustees consent to the action in writing and the written consents are filed with the records of meetings of the Committee, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

(c) The Committee may form subcommittees for any purpose that the Committee deems appropriate and may delegate to such subcommittees such power and authority as the Committee deems appropriate. No subcommittee shall consist of fewer than two members. The Committee shall not delegate to a subcommittee any power or authority required by any law, regulation or listing standard to be exercised by the Committee or the Independent Trustees as a whole.

(d) The Committee may request that any trustees, officers or employees of a Fund, or other persons whose advice and counsel are sought by the Committee, attend any meeting of the Committee to provide such information as the Committee requests.

(e) The Committee shall keep written minutes of its meetings, which minutes shall be maintained with the books and records of each Fund and delivered to the Board of Trustees, including a description of all actions taken by the Committee.

(4) Consultants; Investigations and Studies; Outside Advisers

The Committee shall have the authority to carry out its duties and responsibilities as set forth in this Charter. The Committee shall have authority to retain and terminate any third-party advisers, including authority to approve fees and other retention terms. Such advisers may include search firms to identify Independent Trustee candidates and board compensation consultants. The Committee may conduct or authorize investigations into or studies of matters within the Committee’s scope of responsibilities, and may retain, at the Funds’ expense, such independent counsel or other advisers as it deems necessary.

(5) Particular Actions of the Committee

The Committee will:

(a) Periodically review Board and Committee procedures and Committee Charters.

(b) Periodically review Trustee compensation, and recommend any changes deemed by the Committee to be appropriate.

(c) Monitor corporate governance matters and make recommendations to the Board.

(e) Make recommendations concerning any other aspect of the procedures of the Board that the Committee considers warranted.

(f) Make recommendations as to the size and members, the chair, vice chair if any, alternate presiding members and alternate members of each standing or ad hoc Board Committee. The members and the chair of each Board Committee will be as determined by majority vote of the Independent Trustees upon the recommendation of the Committee. It is anticipated that members and chairs of any Committee will be designated annually (other than Chairs of the Operations Committee and the Governance and Nominating Committee), with membership periodically rotated to give Independent Trustees the opportunity to broaden their experience. Rotation will be accomplished in a manner that provides reasonable continuity of membership.

(g) Review the annual calendar of Board Committee meetings and the schedule for consideration of routine or recurring matters.

(h) Make recommendations on the requirements for, and means of, Board of Trustees orientation and training.

(i) Act as administrative committee under the Funds’ fee deferral plan for Independent Trustees.

(j) Monitor the performance of legal counsel employed by the Funds and the Independent Trustees, and be responsible for the supervision of counsel for the Independent Trustees. The selection and oversight of fund counsel shall

 

25


be the joint responsibility of the Committee and Fidelity. On behalf of the Independent Trustees, the Committee will make such findings and determinations as to the independence of counsel for the Independent Trustees as may be necessary or appropriate under applicable regulations or otherwise.

(k) Be responsible for oversight of Independent Trustees administrative matters, such as expense reimbursement policies and compensation for attendance at meetings, conferences and other events.

(l) Monitor compliance with, act as the administrator of, and make determinations in respect of (a) the provisions of the Code of Ethics applicable to the Independent Trustees, and (b) supplemental policies adopted by the Independent Trustees in respect of personal securities transactions of Independent Trustees.

(m) Monitor the functioning of the Board Committees and make recommendations for any changes, including the creation or elimination of standing or ad hoc Board Committees.

(n) Monitor regulatory and other developments to determine whether to recommend modifications to the Committee’s responsibilities or other Trustee policies and procedures in light of rule changes, reports concerning “best practices” in corporate governance and other developments in mutual fund governance. The Committee will report regularly to the Independent Trustees with respect to these activities.

(o) Recommend that the Board establish such special or ad hoc Board Committees as may be desirable or necessary from time to time in order to address ethical, legal or other matters that may arise. The Committee’s power to make such a recommendation under this Charter shall be without prejudice to the right of any other committee of the Board, or any individual trustee/ director, to make such a recommendation at any time.

(6) Self-Evaluation of the Board of Trustees

The Committee shall be responsible for overseeing the annual self-evaluation of the Board of Trustees. The Committee shall establish procedures to allow it to exercise this oversight function.

In conducting this oversight, the Committee shall address all matters that the Committee considers relevant to the Board of Trustees’ performance.

The Committee shall report to the Board of Trustees on the results of its evaluation, including any recommended amendments to the principles of governance, and any recommended changes to the Funds’ or the Board of Trustees’ policies, procedures and structures. This report may be written or oral.

 

C. Nominating Committee Function

This Section III describes the nominating committee functions of the Committee.

(1) Identification of Candidates

The Committee will:

(a) Review periodically the size and composition of the Board of Trustees as a whole and recommend, if necessary, measures to be taken so that the Board of Trustees reflects the appropriate balance of knowledge, experience, skills, expertise and diversity required for the Board as a whole and contains at least the minimum number of Independent Trustees required by law.

(b) Periodically review the Independent Trustees’ Statement of Policy on Criteria for Selecting Independent Trustees (“Statement of Policy”), which may from time to time be revised by vote of a majority of Independent Trustees upon the recommendation of the Committee.

(c) Make nominations for the appointment or election of Independent Trustees in accordance with the Statement of Policy. The selection of Independent Trustees will be committed solely to the discretion of the Independent Trustees; persons so selected will be “disinterested” in terms of both the letter and spirit of the Investment Company Act.

(d) Make nominations for the appointment of any non-management member of any Advisory Board which the Board of Trustees shall have from time to time established. Each member of any Advisory Board shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Trustees. Any Advisory Board shall be distinct from the Board of Trustees and shall serve such advisory functions as to investments and such other roles as may be designated by the Board of Trustees, but shall have no power to determine that any security or other investment shall be purchased or sold by any fund. In the discretion of the Board of Trustees, each Advisory Board member may be indemnified in respect of claims arising in connection with his or her services as such. Any member of an Advisory Board shall be compensated in accordance with policies in respect thereof adopted by the Board of Trustees. Service by a person on an Advisory Board shall not preclude such person’s subsequent service as a Trustee.

 

26


(e) Consider Independent Trustee candidates recommended by Fund shareholders. Any such candidates will be considered based upon the criteria applied to candidates presented to the Committee by a search firm or other sources, as set forth in the Statement of Policy. The names of such candidates should be submitted to the Chair in writing at the address maintained for communications with Independent Trustees. The submission should be accompanied by appropriate background material concerning the candidate that demonstrates his or her ability to serve as an Independent Trustee of the Funds. If the Committee retains a search firm, the Chair will generally forward such submissions to the search firm for evaluation unless the Committee concludes that the credentials of such candidate are not consistent with the criteria that are to be applied by the Committee in such search.

(2) Selection of the Chair, etc.

(a) The Chair (and thus the lead Independent Trustee of the Funds) will be chosen as follows: The Committee will nominate a selection committee, subject to approval by a majority vote of the Independent Trustees, which will interview individual Independent Trustees. The selection committee will select and recommend to the Independent Trustees one or more potential candidates. The Chair will be elected by a majority vote of the Independent Trustees.

(b) A Vice Chair of the Committee may be chosen in the discretion of the Independent Trustees by majority vote of the Independent Trustees. If elected, such Vice Chair shall serve such functions as may from time to time be designated by the Chair, and shall preside in such Chair’s absence.
