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 proxy card, it will be voted FOR the matters specified on the proxy card. All shares that are voted and votes to ABSTAIN will be counted towards establishing a quorum, as will broker non-votes for matters required by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) to be approved by a "majority of the outstanding voting securities" of the funds. (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, but only to the extent necessary to reach quorum at the meeting.

If a quorum is not present at the Meeting, or if a quorum is present at the 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 the item, in which case such shares will be voted AGAINST the 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. Please visit www.fidelity.com/goto/proxies to determine the status of this scheduled shareholder Meeting (except for Fidelity Advisor Aggressive Growth Fund).

1. TO CONTINUE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ARTICLE VIII, SECTION 4 OF THE DECLARATION OF TRUST

The Board of Trustees recommends that shareholders vote to continue the effectiveness of Article VIII, Section 4 of the Declaration of Trust.

On September 14, 2000, pursuant to authority granted to the Trustees under Article XII, Section 7 of the Declaration of Trust and applicable laws, the Trustees modified a provision in the Declaration of Trust to resolve any legal uncertainty regarding derivative actions brought on behalf of a fund. Notwithstanding their authority to amend the Declaration of Trust, the Trustees authorized the submission of this amendment to shareholders to vote on the continued effectiveness of the provision. The amended provision currently in effect is set forth below.

Section 4. A Shareholder may bring derivative action on behalf of the Trust only if the Shareholder or Shareholders first make a pre-suit demand upon the Trustees to bring the subject action unless an effort to cause the Trustees to bring such action is excused. A demand on the Trustees shall only be excused if a majority of the Board of Trustees, or a majority of any committee established to consider such action, has a personal financial interest in the action at issue. A Trustee shall not be deemed to have a personal financial interest in an action or otherwise be disqualified from ruling on a Shareholder demand by virtue of the fact that such Trustee receives remuneration from his service on the Board of Trustees of the Trust or on the boards of one or more investment companies with the same or an affiliated investment advisor or underwriter.

The amendment provides that a Trustee shall not be deemed to have a personal interest or otherwise be disqualified from considering a pre-suit demand by a shareholder to bring a derivative action on behalf of a fund due to his or her service on boards of trustees of other funds with the same or affiliated investment advisor or underwriter. There is some legal uncertainty regarding whether a Trustee serving on multiple boards of trustees is independent of the investment advisor and, therefore, permitted to consider a pre-suit demand by a shareholder seeking to assert a claim against a fund's investment advisor. The Trustees seek to ensure that they retain the ability to manage the affairs of the funds, including control of derivative actions that are brought on behalf of a fund. This provision in the amendment will resolve any legal uncertainty by expressly stating that a Trustee shall not be deemed to have a personal interest or otherwise be disqualified from considering a pre-suit demand due to his or her service on multiple fund boards of trustees.

Continuing the effectiveness of the amendment will not alter in any way the Trustees' existing fiduciary obligations to act with due care and in shareholders' interests.

If shareholders do not vote to continue the provision's effectiveness, the Trustees will execute an amended and restated Declaration of Trust which eliminates Article VIII, Section 4.

Conclusion. The Board of Trustees has concluded that continuing the effectiveness of the amendment to Article VIII, Section 4 of the Declaration of Trust is in the best interests of the trust's shareholders. Accordingly, the Trustees unanimously recommend that shareholders vote FOR the proposal. If the proposal is approved, Article VIII, Section 4 will remain in the Declaration of Trust as presented above. If the proposal is not approved, the Trustees will execute an amended and restated Declaration of Trust which eliminates Article VIII, Section 4.

2. TO AUTHORIZE THE TRUSTEES TO ADOPT AN AMENDED AND RESTATED DECLARATION OF TRUST.

The Board of Trustees has approved, and recommends that the shareholders of the trust authorize them to adopt and execute, an amended and restated Declaration of Trust in the form attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit 1 (New Declaration of Trust). The New Declaration of Trust has been marked to show changes from the trust's existing Declaration of Trust (Current Declaration of Trust). The New Declaration of Trust is a standard form that will be used for all new Fidelity funds organized as Massachusetts business trusts going forward.

Under the Current Declaration of Trust, shareholders generally have the right to vote on any amendment affecting their right to vote, any amendment affecting the amendment provisions of the Declaration of Trust, any amendment that would alter the maximum number of Trustees, any amendment required by law or the trust's registration statement, and any matter submitted to the shareholders by the Trustees. On December 14, 2000, the Trustees approved a change to the form of the Current Declaration of Trust which has been incorporated into the form attached to this Proxy Statement. On February 14, 2002, the Board authorized the submission of the New Declaration of Trust to the trust's shareholders for their authorization at this Meeting. Except for the modifications discussed below and for non-material changes to the Current Declaration of Trust, the New Declaration of Trust is substantially identical to the Current Declaration of Trust.

The New Declaration of Trust amends the Current Declaration of Trust in one significant way.

Number of Trustees. The New Declaration of Trust modifies the Current Declaration of Trust to allow the Trustees to increase the maximum number of Trustees from twelve (12) to fourteen (14). This increase is intended to enhance the flexibility of the Board to organize itself and its committees in overseeing management of the Fidelity funds and to expand the level of the Board's expertise. Under the Current Declaration of Trust and the New Declaration of Trust the maximum number of Trustees cannot be changed without shareholder approval.

Conclusion. The Board of Trustees has concluded that the proposed adoption of the New Declaration of Trust is in the best interests of the trust's shareholders. Accordingly, the Trustees unanimously recommend that the shareholders vote FOR the proposal to authorize them to adopt and execute the New Declaration of Trust. If the proposal is not approved, the Current Declaration of Trust will remain unchanged and in effect. Please note that, notwithstanding approval of Proposal 2, if Proposal 1 is not approved, the Trustees will execute an amended and restated Declaration of Trust that eliminates Section 4 of Article VIII.

3. TO ELECT A BOARD OF TRUSTEES.

The purpose of this proposal is to elect a Board of Trustees of the trust. The Trustees have determined that the Board of Trustees should be expanded from a maximum of 12 to a maximum of 14 members and have fixed the number of Trustees at 13. Pursuant to the provisions of the Declaration of Trust of Fidelity Securities Fund, the increase in the size of the Board of Trustees is subject to shareholder approval (see Proposal 2). If shareholders approve expansion of the Board of Trustees, it is intended that the enclosed proxy will be voted for the election as Trustees of the 13 nominees listed below unless such authority has been withheld in the proxy. Otherwise, the number of Trustees will continue to be fixed at 12 and the enclosed proxy will be voted for all nominees listed below except for William S. Stavropoulos, unless such authority has been withheld in the proxy.

Except for Mr. Stavropoulos, all nominees named below are currently Trustees of Fidelity Securities Fund and have served in that capacity continuously since originally elected or appointed. J. Michael Cook, Marie L. Knowles, and Abigail P. Johnson were selected by the trust's Nominating and Administration Committee (see page __) and were appointed to the Board on January 1, 2001, January 1, 2001, and June 15, 2001, respectively. Mr. Stavropoulos is currently a Member of the Advisory Board of the trust. Mr. Stavropoulos was selected by the trust's Nominating and Administration Committee and was appointed as a Member of the Advisory Board on November 1, 2000.

Except for William O. McCoy and William S. Stavropoulos, each of the nominees oversees 261 funds advised by FMR. Mr. McCoy oversees 263 funds advised by FMR and Mr. Stavropoulos oversees 185 funds advised by FMR.

If shareholders approve an increase in the size of the Board of Trustees, in the election of Trustees, those 13 nominees receiving the highest number of votes cast at the Meeting, provided a quorum is present, shall be elected. If shareholders do not approve an increase in the size of the Board of Trustees, in the election of Trustees, those 12 nominees (not including Mr. Stavropoulos) receiving the highest number of votes cast at the Meeting, provided a quorum is present, shall be elected.

Under a deferred compensation plan adopted in September 1995 and amended in November 1996 and January 2000 (the Plan), non-interested Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, their annual fees. Amounts deferred under the Plan are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of a cross-section of Fidelity funds including funds in each major investment discipline and representing a majority of Fidelity's assets under management (the Reference Funds). The amounts ultimately received by the non-interested Trustees under the Plan will be directly linked to the investment performance of the Reference Funds. Deferral of fees in accordance with the Plan will have a negligible effect on a fund's assets, liabilities, and net income per share, and will not obligate a fund to retain the services of any non-interested Trustee or to pay any particular level of compensation to the non-interested Trustee. A fund may invest in the Reference Funds under the Plan without shareholder approval.

4. TO ELIMINATE A FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT POLICY OF FIDELITY BLUE CHIP GROWTH FUND.

The Board of Trustees has approved, and recommends that the shareholders of the fund approve, a proposal that would eliminate a fundamental investment policy of the fund.

The fund's current fundamental investment objective and a fundamental investment policy regarding investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of common stocks of well-known and established companies currently read as follows:

"Blue Chip Growth Fund seeks growth of capital over the long term by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of common stocks of well-known and established companies."

If the proposal is approved, the fund's fundamental investment objective would remain unchanged but the fund's fundamental investment policy would be eliminated as follows (deleted language is [bracketed]):

"Blue Chip Growth Fund seeks growth of capital over the long term [by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of common stocks of well-known and established companies]."

Discussion of Proposed Modification. Eliminating the foregoing fundamental policy will allow the fund to more clearly communicate its investment objective and investment strategies to shareholders by standardizing its investment disclosure in a manner consistent with other Fidelity funds with similar investment disciplines.

If the proposal is approved, the fund will continue to rely on its existing non-fundamental policies of normally investing primarily in common stocks of well-known and established companies and normally investing at least 80% of assets in blue chip companies. Pursuant to fundamental policy, the fund will continue to be "diversified" as defined in the 1940 Act. Fundamental policies can be changed or eliminated only with shareholder approval, while non-fundamental policies can be changed or eliminated without shareholder approval. Changes in non-fundamental policies, however, are still subject to the supervision of the Board of Trustees.

Eliminating the fundamental investment policy as proposed is not expected to have any material effect on the way the fund is managed.

Conclusion. The Board of Trustees has concluded that eliminating the fundamental investment policy as described above is in the best interest of the fund and its shareholders. The Trustees recommend voting FOR the the proposal. If approved by shareholders, the change will become effective when the prospectus is revised to reflect it. If the proposal is not approved by the fund's shareholders, the fund's current fundamental investment policy discussed above will not change.

5. TO AMEND THE FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT LIMITATION CONCERNING UNDERWRITING FOR EACH OF FIDELITY BLUE CHIP GROWTH FUND, FIDELITY DIVIDEND GROWTH FUND, FIDELITY GROWTH & INCOME PORTFOLIO, AND FIDELITY OTC PORTFOLIO.

Fidelity Dividend Growth Fund's current fundamental investment limitation concerning underwriting states:

"The fund may not underwrite securities issued by others, except to the extent that the fund may be considered an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in the disposition of restricted securities"

The Trustees recommend that shareholders of Fidelity Dividend Growth Fund vote to replace this limitation with the following amended fundamental investment limitation governing underwriting (additional language is underlined):

"The fund may not underwrite securities issued by others, except to the extent that the fund may be considered an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in the disposition of restricted securities or in connection with investments in other investment companies;"

Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund's current fundamental investment limitation concerning underwriting states:

"The fund may not underwrite securities issued by others, ( except to the extent that the fund may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in the disposition of restricted securities);"

The Trustees recommend that shareholders of Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund vote to replace this limitation with the following amended fundamental investment limitation governing underwriting (additional language is underlined; deleted language is [bracketed]):

"The fund may not underwrite securities issued byothers, [(]except to the extent that the fund may be [deemed to be] considered an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in the disposition of restricted securities [)] or in connection with investments in other investment companies;"

Fidelity Growth & Income Portfolio's and Fidelity OTC Portfolio's current fundamental investment limitations concerning underwriting state:

"The fund may not underwrite any issue of securities (except to the extent that the fund may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in the disposition of restricted securities);"

The Trustees recommend that shareholders of Fidelity Growth & Income Portfolio and Fidelity OTC Portfolio vote to replace these limitations with the following amended fundamental investment limitation governing underwriting (additional language is underlined; deleted language is [bracketed]):

"The fund may not underwrite [any issue of] securities issued by others, [(] except to the extent that the fund may [be deemed to] be considered an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in the disposition of restricted securities [)] or in connection with investments in other investment companies;"

Discussion of Proposed Modifications. The primary purpose of the proposal is to clarify that each fund is not prohibited from investing in other investment companies, even if as a result of such investment, each fund is technically considered an underwriter under federal securities laws.

The proposal also serves to conform each fund's fundamental investment limitation concerning underwriting to a limitation which is expected to become standard for all funds managed by FMR or its affiliates. If the proposal is approved, the new limitation may not be changed without the approval of shareholders.

Adoption of the proposed limitation concerning underwriting is not expected to affect the way in which each fund is managed, the investment performance of each fund, or the securities or instruments in which each fund invests.

Conclusion. The Board of Trustees has concluded that the proposal will benefit each fund and its shareholders. The Trustees recommend voting FOR the proposal. Upon shareholder approval, the amended fundamental limitation will become effective when disclosure is revised to reflect the changes. If the proposal is not approved by the shareholders of a fund, that fund's current limitation will remain unchanged.

6. TO AMEND THE FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT LIMITATION CONCERNING LENDING FOR EACH OF FIDELITY ADVISOR AGGRESSIVE GROWTH FUND, FIDELITY BLUE CHIP GROWTH FUND, FIDELITY DIVIDEND GROWTH FUND, FIDELITY GROWTH & INCOME PORTFOLIO, AND FIDELITY OTC PORTFOLIO.

Each fund's current fundamental investment limitation concerning lending is as follows:

"The fund may not lend any security or make any other loan if, as a result, more than 33 1/3% of its total assets would be lent to other parties, but this limitation does not apply to purchases of debt securities or to repurchase agreements."

The Trustees recommend that the shareholders of each fund to vote and replace this limitation with the following amended fundamental investment limitation governing lending (additional language is underlined):

"The fund may not lend any security or make any other loan if, as a result, more than 33 1/3% of its total assets would be lent to other parties, but this limitation does not apply to purchases of debt securities or to repurchase agreements, or to acquisitions of loans, loan participations or other forms of debt instruments."

Discussion of Proposed Modification. The primary purpose of this proposal is to revise each fund's fundamental lending limitation to conform to a limitation expected to become standard for all funds managed by FMR or its affiliates. If the proposal is approved, the new fundamental lending limitation cannot be changed without the approval of shareholders.

Adoption of the proposed limitation on lending is not expected to affect the way in which each fund is managed, the investment performance of each fund or the instruments in which each fund invests. However, the proposed limitation would clarify that acquisitions of loans, loan participations or other debt instruments are not considered lending.

If shareholders approve the proposed fundamental investment limitation on lending set forth above, the Board intends to adopt the following non-fundamental limitation:

"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) assuming any unfunded commitments in connection with the acquisition of loans, loan participations, or other forms of debt instruments. (This limitation does not apply to purchases of debt securities, to repurchase agreements, or to acquisitions of loans, loan participations or other forms of debt instruments.)"

Loans and other forms of debt instruments are used by issuers to borrow money. Loans may be subject to restrictions on resale. Purchasers of loans and other forms of debt instruments depend primarily upon the creditworthiness of the borrower for payment of interest and principal. If scheduled interest or principal payments are not made, the value of the instrument may be adversely affected. Loans, loan participations, and other forms of direct debt instruments involve a risk of loss in case of default or insolvency of the borrower, lending bank, or other intermediary.

When a fund lends a security, it receives in return collateral in an amount at least equal in value to the security loaned. A fund could incur expenses if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned for any reason.

The Trustees may change non-fundamental limitations in response to regulatory, market, legal or other developments without the approval of shareholders.

Conclusion. The Board of Trustees has concluded that the proposal will benefit each fund and its shareholders. The Trustees recommend voting FOR the proposal. Upon shareholder approval, the amended fundamental limitation will become effective when the prospectus and/or statement of additional information are revised to reflect it. If the proposal is not approved by the shareholders of a fund, that fund's current limitation will remain unchanged.

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.

On any matter submitted to a vote of the Shareholders, all Shares shall be voted by individual Series, except as provided in the following sentence and except (a) when required by the 1940 Act, Shares shall be voted in the aggregate and not by individual Series; and (b) when the Trustees have determined that the matter affects only the interests of one or more Series, then only the Shareholders of such Series shall be entitled to vote thereon. The Trustees may also determine that a matter affects only the interests of one or more Classes of a Series, in which case, any such matter shall be voted on by such Class or Classes. A Shareholder of each Series or Class thereof shall be entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value (number of Shares owned times net asset value per share) of such Series or Class thereof on any matter on which such Shareholder is entitled to vote, and each fractional dollar amount shall be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. There shall be no cumulative voting in the election of Trustees. Shares may be voted in person or by proxy. Until Shares are issued, the Trustees may exercise all rights of Shareholders and may take any action required or permitted by law, this Declaration of Trust or any Bylaws of the Trust, if any, to be taken by Shareholders.

MEETINGS

Section 2. The first Shareholders' meeting shall be held as specified in Section 2 of Article IV at the principal office of the Trust or such other place as the Trustees may designate. Special meetings of the Shareholders of any Series may be called by the Trustees and shall be called by the Trustees upon the written request of Shareholders owning at least one-tenth (1/10) of the outstanding Shares entitled to vote. Whenever ten or more Shareholders meeting the qualifications set forth in Section 16(c) of the 1940 Act, as modified by or interpreted by any applicable order or orders of the Commission or any rules or regulations adopted or interpretative releases of the Commission, seek the opportunity of furnishing materials to the other Shareholders with a view to obtaining signatures on such a request for a meeting, the Trustees shall comply with the provisions of said Section 16(c) with respect to providing such Shareholders access to the list of the Shareholders of record of the Trust or the mailing of such materials to such Shareholders of record. Shareholders shall be entitled to at least fifteen (15) days' notice of any meeting.

QUORUM AND REQUIRED VOTE

Section 3. A majority of Shares entitled to vote in person or by proxy shall be a quorum for the transaction of business at a Shareholders' meeting, except that where any provision of law or of this Declaration of Trust permits or requires that holders of any Series or Class shall vote as a Series or Class then a majority of the aggregate number of Shares of that Series or Class entitled to vote shall be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business by that Series or Class. Any lesser number shall be sufficient for adjournments. Any adjourned session or sessions may be held, within a reasonable time after the date set for the original meeting, without the necessity of further notice. Except when a larger vote is required by applicable law or by any provision of this Declaration of Trust or the Bylaws, if any, a majority of the Shares voted in person or by proxy shall decide any questions and a plurality shall elect a Trustee, provided that where any provision of law or of this Declaration of Trust permits or requires that the holders of any Series or Class shall vote as a Series or Class, then a majority of the Shares of that Series or Class voted on the matter shall decide that matter insofar as that Series or Class is concerned. Shareholders may act by unanimous written consent. Actions taken by a Series or Class may be consented to unanimously in writing by Shareholders of that Series or Class.

A Shareholder may bring derivative action on behalf of the Trust only if the Shareholder or Shareholders first make a pre-suit demand upon the Trustees to bring the subject action unless an effort to cause the Trustees to bring such action is excused. A demand on the Trustees shall only be excused if a majority of the Board of Trustees, or a majority of any committee established to consider such action, has a personal financial interest in the action at issue. A Trustee shall not be deemed to have a personal financial interest in an action or otherwise be disqualified from ruling on a Shareholder demand by virtue of the fact that such Trustee receives remuneration from his service on the Board of Trustees of the Trust or on the boards of one or more investment companies with the same or an affiliated investment advisor or underwriter.

The Trustees may adopt and offer to Shareholders such dividend reinvestment plans, cash dividend payout plans, or related plans as the Trustees shall deem appropriate.

Section 2. In case any holder of record of Shares of a particular Series or Class of a Series desires to dispose of his Shares, he may deposit at the office of the transfer agent or other authorized agent of that Series a written request or such other form of request as the Trustees may, from time to time, authorize, requesting that the Series purchase the Shares in accordance with this Section 2; and the Shareholder so requesting shall be entitled to require the Series to purchase, and the Series or the principal underwriter of the Series shall purchase his said Shares, but only at the Net Asset Value thereof (as described in Section 3 hereof). The Series shall make payment for any such Shares to be redeemed, as aforesaid, in cash or property from the assets of that Series, and payment for such Shares less any applicable deferred sales charges and/or fees shall be made by the Series[,] or the principal underwriter of the Series to the Shareholder of record within seven (7) days after the date upon which the request is effective.

DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE AND VALUATION OF PORTFOLIO ASSETS

Section 3. The term "Net Asset Value" of any Series or Class shall mean that amount by which the assets of that Series or Class exceed its liabilities, all as determined by or under the direction of the Trustees. Such value per Share shall be determined separately for each Series or Class of Shares and shall be determined on such days and at such times as the Trustees may determine. Such determination shall be made with respect to securities for which market quotations are readily available, at the market value of such securities; and with respect to other securities and assets, at the fair value as determined in good faith by the Trustees, provided, however, that the Trustees, without Shareholder approval, may alter the method of appraising portfolio securities insofar as permitted under the 1940 Act and the rules, regulations, and interpretations thereof promulgated or issued by the Commission or insofar as permitted by any order of the Commission applicable to the Series. The Trustees may delegate any of its powers and duties under this Section 3 with respect to appraisal of assets and liabilities.

In the case of a suspension of the right of redemption, a Shareholder may either withdraw his request for redemption or receive payment based on the Net Asset Value per Share existing after the termination of the suspension. In the event that any Series is divided into Classes, the provisions of this Section, to the extent applicable as determined in the discretion of the Trustees and consistent with applicable law, may be equally applied to each such [c]Class.

REDEMPTION OF SHARES

Section 5. The Trustees may require Shareholders to redeem Shares for any reason under terms set by the Trustees, including, but not limited to, (i) the determination of the Trustees that direct or indirect ownership of Shares of any Series has or may become concentrated in such Shareholder to an extent that would disqualify any Series as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or any successor statute thereto), (ii) the failure of a Shareholder to supply a tax identification number if required to do so, or (iii) the failure of a Shareholder to pay when due for the purchase of Shares issued to him. The redemption shall be effected at the redemption price and in the manner provided in this Article X.

The holders of Shares shall upon demand disclose to the Trustees in writing such information with respect to direct and indirect ownership of Shares as the Trustees deem necessary to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, or to comply with the requirements of any other taxing authority.

(ii) the Trustees shall proceed to wind up the affairs of the Trust or the Series or Class, and all of the powers of the Trustees under [the] this Declaration of Trust shall continue until the affairs of the Trust shall have been wound up, including the power to fulfill or discharge the contracts of the Trust or the Series or Class thereof; collect its assets; sell, convey, assign, exchange, transfer, or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the remaining Trust property or Trust property allocated or belonging to such Series or Class to one or more persons at public or private sale for consideration that may consist in whole or in part of cash, securities, or other property of any kind; discharge or pay its liabilities; and do all other acts appropriate to liquidate its business; provided that any sale, conveyance, assignment, exchange, transfer, or other disposition of all or substantially all the Trust property or Trust property allocated or belonging to such Series or Class (other than as provided in (iii) below) shall require Shareholder approval in accordance with Section 4.3 below; and

(iii) after paying or adequately providing for the payment of all liabilities, and upon receipt of such releases, indemnities, and refunding agreements as they deem necessary for their protection, the Trustees may distribute the remaining Trust property or the remaining property of the terminated Series or Class, in cash or in kind or partly each, among the Shareholders of the Trust or the Series or Class according to their respective rights; and

(b) after termination of the Trust[,] or the Series or Class and distribution to the Shareholders as herein provided, a majority of the Trustees shall execute and lodge among the records of the Trust and file with the Secretary of [t]The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, if required, an instrument in writing setting forth the fact of such termination, and the Trustees shall thereupon be discharged from all further liabilities and duties with respect to the Trust or the terminated Series or Class, and the rights and interests of all Shareholders of the Trust or the terminated Series or Class shall thereupon cease.

Section 4.3. Merger, Consolidation, and Sale of Assets. Subject to applicable Federal and state law and except as otherwise provided in Section 4.4 below, the Trust or any Series or Class thereof may merge or consolidate with any other corporation, association, trust, or other organization or may sell, lease, or exchange all or a portion of the Trust property or Trust property allocated or belonging to such Series or Class, including its good will, upon such terms and conditions and for such consideration when and as authorized at any meeting of Shareholders called for such purpose by a Majority Shareholder Vote of the Trust or affected Series or Class, as the case may be. Such transactions may be effected through share-for-share exchanges, transfers or sale of assets, shareholder[-]in-kind redemptions and purchases, exchange offers, or any other method approved by the Trustees.

Section 4.4. Incorporation; Reorganization. Subject to applicable Federal and state law, the Trustees may without the vote or consent of Shareholders cause to be organized or assist in organizing a corporation or corporations under the laws of any jurisdiction or any other trust, partnership, limited liability company, association, or other organization to take over all or a portion of the Trust property or all or a portion of the Trust property allocated or belonging to such Series or Class or to carry on any business in which the Trust shall directly or indirectly have any interest, and to sell, convey and transfer the Trust property or the Trust property allocated or belonging to such Series or Class to any such corporation, trust, limited liability company, partnership, association, or organization in exchange for the shares or securities thereof or otherwise, and to lend money to, subscribe for the shares or securities of, and enter into any contracts with any such corporation, trust, partnership, limited liability company, association, or organization, or any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust, association, or organization in which the Trust or such Series holds or is about to acquire shares or any other interest. Subject to applicable Federal and state law, the Trustees may also cause a merger or consolidation between the Trust or any successor thereto or any Series or Class thereof and any such corporation, trust, partnership, limited liability company, association, or other organization. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring approval of Shareholders for the Trustees to organize or assist in organizing one or more corporations, trusts, partnerships, limited liability companies, associations, or other organizations and selling, conveying, or transferring the Trust property or a portion of the Trust property to such organization or entities; provided, however, that the Trustees shall provide written notice to the affected Shareholders of any transaction whereby, pursuant to this Section 4.4, the Trust or any Series or Class thereof sells, conveys, or transfers all or a portion of its assets to another entity or merges or consolidates with another entity. Such transactions may be effected through share-for-share exchanges, transfers or sale of assets, shareholder[-]in-kind redemptions and purchases, exchange offers, or any other method approved by the Trustees.

FILING OF COPIES, REFERENCES, AND HEADINGS

Section 5. The original or a copy of this instrument and of each Declaration of Trust supplemental hereto shall be kept at the office of the Trust where it may be inspected by any Shareholder. A copy of this instrument and of each supplemental Declaration of Trust shall be filed by the Trustees with the Secretary of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the Boston City Clerk, as well as any other governmental office where such filing may from time to time be required. Anyone dealing with the Trust may rely on a certificate by an officer or Trustee of the Trust as to whether or not any such supplemental Declarations of Trust have been made and as to any matters in connection with the Trust hereunder, and with the same effect as if it were the original, may rely on a copy certified by an officer or Trustee of the Trust to be a copy of this instrument or of any such supplemental Declaration of Trust. In this instrument or in any such supplemental Declaration of Trust, references to this instrument and all expressions like "herein," "hereof" and "hereunder," shall be deemed to refer to this instrument as amended or affected by any such supplemental Declaration of Trust. Headings are placed herein for convenience of reference only and in case of any conflict, the text of this instrument, rather than the headings, shall control. This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which shall be deemed an original.

APPLICABLE LAW

Section 6. The Trust set forth in this instrument is made in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and it is created under and is to be governed by and construed and administered according to the laws of said Commonwealth. The Trust shall be of the type commonly called a Massachusetts business trust, and without limiting the provisions hereof, the Trust may exercise all powers which are ordinarily exercised by such a trust, and the absence of a specific reference herein to any such power, privilege, or action shall not imply that the Trust may not exercise such power or privilege or take such actions.

AMENDMENTS

Section 7. Except as specifically provided herein, the Trustees may, without shareholder vote, amend or otherwise supplement this Declaration of Trust by making an amendment, a Declaration of Trust supplemental hereto or an amended and restated Declaration of Trust. Shareholders shall have the right to vote (a) on any amendment that would affect their right to vote granted in Section 1 of Article VIII; (b) on any amendment that would alter the maximum number of Trustees permitted under Section 6 of Article IV; (c) on any amendment to this Section 7; (d) on any amendment as may be required by law or by the Trust's registration statement filed with the Commission; and (e) on any amendment submitted to them by the Trustees. Any amendment required or permitted to be submitted to Shareholders that, as the Trustees [shall] determine, shall affect the Shareholders of one or more Series or Classes shall be authorized by vote of the Shareholders of each Series or Class affected and no vote of shareholders of a Series or Class not affected shall be required. Notwithstanding anything else herein, any amendment to Article XI shall not limit the rights to indemnification or insurance provided therein with respect to action or omission of Covered Persons prior to such amendment.

FISCAL YEAR

Section 8. The fiscal year of the Trust shall end on a specified date as set forth in the Bylaws, if any, provided, however, that the Trustees may, without Shareholder approval, change the fiscal year of the Trust.

USE OF THE WORD "FIDELITY"

Section 9. Fidelity Management & Research Company ("FMR") has consented to the use by any Series of the Trust of the identifying word "Fidelity" in the name of any Series of the Trust at some future date. Such consent is conditioned upon the employment of FMR or a subsidiary or affiliate thereof as investment adviser of each Series of the Trust. As between the Trust and itself, FMR controls the use of the name of the Trust insofar as such name contains the identifying word "Fidelity." FMR may from time to time use the identifying word "Fidelity" in other connections and for other purposes, including, without limitation, in the names of other investment companies, corporations, or businesses that it may manage, advise, sponsor or own or in which it may have a financial interest. FMR may require the Trust or any Series thereof to cease using the identifying word "Fidelity" in the name of the Trust or any Series thereof if the Trust or any Series thereof ceases to employ FMR or a subsidiary or affiliate thereof as investment adviser.

PROVISIONS IN CONFLICT WITH LAW OR REGULATIONS

Section 10. (a) The provisions of this Declaration of Trust are severable, and, if the Trustees shall determine, with the advice of counsel, that any of such provisions is in conflict with the 1940 Act, the regulated investment company provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or with other applicable laws and regulations, the conflicting provision shall be deemed never to have constituted a part of this Declaration of Trust; provided, however, that such determination shall not affect any of the remaining provisions of this Declaration of Trust or render invalid or improper any action taken or omitted prior to such determination.

(b) If any provision of this Declaration of Trust shall be held invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision in such jurisdiction and shall not in any manner affect such provisions in any other jurisdiction or any other provision of this Declaration of Trust in any jurisdiction.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, being all of the Trustees of the Trust, have executed this instrument as of the date set forth above.
