Manager’s Letter

Fellow Shareholders

I’m pleased to report solid returns in 2010 and particular strength in the second half of the year. Global economies continued to recover, which drove strong earnings growth, and stocks trended significantly higher during the reporting period as investors became more willing to take on riskier investments. The portfolio’s best returns for the year came from our holdings in the industrials and business services, information technology, and materials sectors.

In the 12 months ended December 31, 2010, the New America Growth Fund participated nicely in the bullish environment for equities. Our 19.34% return compared favorably with the S&P 500’s 15.06% return and also outperformed the large-cap, growth-focused Russell 1000 Growth Index, which rose 16.71% for the year. The portfolio modestly trailed the Lipper Multi-Cap Growth Funds Index, which returned 20.39% . As shown in the Growth of $10,000 chart on page 10, the fund has outpaced the S&P 500 and its Lipper benchmark over the past 10 years. (Results for Advisor Class shares were slightly lower, reflecting their higher fee structure.)

Lipper ranked the fund in the top 9% of its multi-cap growth funds universe for the three-year period and in the top 16% of its peer group for the five-year period ended December 31, 2010. (Based on cumulative total return, Lipper ranked the New America Growth Fund 195 of 433, 31 of 359, 45 of 298, and 60 of 202 multi-cap growth funds for the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods ended December 31, 2010, respectively. Results will vary for other periods. Past performance cannot guarantee future results.)

MARKET ENVIRONMENT

A weak first half of 2010 gave way to a powerful rally in the second half of the year. Global economies continued to recover, risk appetite increased, and valuations improved as concerns surrounding the ongoing European debt crisis receded. The rally was fairly broad-based, with all market-cap segments and investment styles rising for the full year. Small-caps performed best, followed by mid-caps. The large-cap companies that make up almost two-thirds of the portfolio fared worst but still returned almost 17% as measured by the Russell 1000 Growth Index. Growth stocks edged out value across all market capitalizations.

All 10 S&P 500 sectors showed positive returns for the second straight year. Consumer discretionary stocks led the way with a 28% total return, followed by industrials and business services’ 27% gain. The only two sectors that did not generate double-digit returns were utilities and health care. Looking back at the fund’s positioning in 2010, my heavy health care exposure hurt results, while the portfolio benefited from significant exposure in materials and energy, which were the third- and fourth-best-performing sectors, respectively.

PORTFOLIO REVIEW

We typically see contributions from a variety of companies and sectors, reflecting the diversified nature of the portfolio, and 2010 was no different. Our top three contributors to full-year performance were multiyear portfolio holdingsApple, Expeditors International, and Illumina, representing the information technology, industrials and business services, and health care sectors, respectively. (Please refer to the portfolio of investments for a detailed list of holdings and the amount each represents in the portfolio.)

Apple continued to benefit from its strong product lineup, including the wildly popular iPhone and iPad. These innovative products drove consistently strong results throughout the year and propelled the stock higher. We believe that 2011 will be another solid year for Apple, and it remained a top holding as of year-end.

Expeditors International operates as a travel agent of sorts—but for goods, not people. The company has offices around the globe whose mission it is to help businesses move their products from point A to point B as efficiently as possible. The company benefited from a stronger economic backdrop, especially in key end markets such as technology and retail, and continued strong management execution. While I have trimmed the position modestly due to its rising valuation, the stock remained a large holding. Illumina’s performance was driven by rapid growth in its genetic testing equipment and related supplies, market share gains, and excellent execution. I believe the company’s long-term growth potential is significant, and the stock remains a core holding entering 2011.

The fund’s investments in the agriculture sector began to pay off nicely as crop prices rose sharply in the second half of the year. Fertilizer company Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan and seed company Monsanto generated significant gains and were among our best second-half contributors. Looking ahead to 2011, I remain bullish on the prospects for these companies, and the portfolio continues to have significant exposure to agricultural names.

For the year, the three positions that hurt performance most were Apollo Group, Regal Entertainment, and Adobe Systems. Apollo’s decline stemmed from the government’s intense focus on trying to change the business practices in the for-profit education industry. This proved disruptive to Apollo’s fundamentals and hurt investor sentiment throughout the year. In retrospect, it is clear that I underestimated the impact that the government’s scrutiny would have on the stock. Looking ahead, while the near term is likely to remain dicey, I still have confidence in the long-term merit of the for-profit education segment, and I also expect final government regulations to be somewhat less onerous than is currently feared. Therefore, I continue to own positions in both Apollo and Strayer Education, one of Apollo’s industry peers.

Regal Entertainment is the country’s largest movie theater operator. The stock’s negative performance within the portfolio really should be attributed to my poor timing in purchasing shares rather than to anything fundamentally wrong with the company. In fact, the fundamentals at Regal should strengthen as 3D films become more popular. Combined with its strong cash flows and well-above-average dividend yield, I continue to find Regal to be an attractive investment.

From a fundamental standpoint, Adobe performed well during 2010, but controversy surrounding the company for much of the year hurt the stock. The main issue involved Apple’s decision not to support Adobe’s Flash platform on its mobile devices. While Adobe would certainly benefit from having access to Apple’s strong mobile device lineup, the company is, nevertheless, well positioned on almost all other platforms, including Google’s Android. I think it is one of the more compelling names on a risk/reward basis among my technology holdings.

OUTLOOK

Entering 2011, the broad consensus is that the ongoing global economic recovery and decent valuations should drive further equity gains. While this consensus may prove to be correct, I find the coming year tougher to call for several reasons. First, historic government stimulus in the U.S.—increased spending, reduced taxes, and extremely low interest rates—is beneficial but unsustainable over the medium and longer term. Current budget deficits are too high and are adding to an already bloated national debt. This sets the stage for fiscal restraint at some point, with spending coming down and taxes going up, which could slow economic growth. Second, interest rates should rise as inflation accelerates, driven in part by rapidly rising commodity prices, which also could have a slowing effect on the economy. Lastly, many of the world’s fastest-growing economies, including China, are waging an even more serious battle with inflation and are proactively trying to tap on their economic brakes. Taken together, the combination of fiscal restraint and higher interest rates in the U.S., plus the ongoing tightening efforts in emerging markets, could challenge the upward momentum that equity markets have enjoyed over the past two years.

Even with rising risks, I believe the fund is well positioned entering 2011. I’d expect the portfolio to deliver solid earnings growth even if the global economy starts to lose some momentum, and valuations within the portfolio still seem fairly attractive. I maintain a diverse set of sectors and names in the fund, and I’ve reduced exposure to companies that I view as excessively expensive in an ongoing effort to manage risk. From a sector standpoint, I continue to favor health care, business services, and agriculture, while I’m still generally de-emphasizing my consumer discretionary exposure.

It has been a particularly interesting past three years, which included the end of the last bull market, the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression, a painful recession, and an economic recovery accompanied by a powerful rally that has led to a near doubling of the S&P 500 off the 2009 bottom. Through it all, we have attempted to remain consistent in our investment process, which focuses on owning high-quality, larger-capitalization growth companies; being willing to go against the consensus opinion when we feel that it is appropriate; and adhering to a longer-term investment time horizon. This discipline has helped the fund successfully navigate the market’s turbulence over the past few years.

In closing, I think equities can generate further gains in 2011, but the risks are also greater. The stock market likes to make us all feel as though the risks are high when stocks are down, as in late 2008, and that the risks are low when stocks are up, like now. Of course, most of the time, the exact opposite is true. Simply put, we believe that this is not a good time for complacency. I intend to stick with the same investment process that I have been employing for the better part of the eight-and-a-half years that I’ve had the pleasure of managing the portfolio on your behalf.

I look forward to updating you on our progress at midyear.

Respectfully submitted,

Joseph M. Milano

RISKS OF STOCK INVESTING

The fund’s share price can fall because of weakness in the stock markets, a particular industry, or specific holdings. Stock markets can decline for many reasons, including adverse political or economic developments, changes in investor psychology, or heavy institutional selling. The prospects for an industry or company may deteriorate because of a variety of factors, including disappointing earnings or changes in the competitive environment. In addition, the investment manager’s assessment of companies held in a fund may prove incorrect, resulting in losses or poor performance even in rising markets.

Performance and Expenses

GROWTH OF $10,000 

This chart shows the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the fund over the past 10 fiscal year periods or since inception (for funds lacking 10-year records). The result is compared with benchmarks, which may include a broad-based market index and a peer group average or index. Market indexes do not include expenses, which are deducted from fund returns as well as mutual fund averages and indexes.

FUND EXPENSE EXAMPLE 

As a mutual fund shareholder, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as redemption fees or sales loads, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the most recent six-month period and held for the entire period.

Please note that the fund has two share classes: The original share class (“investor class”) charges no distribution and service (12b-1) fee, and the Advisor Class shares are offered only through unaffiliated brokers and other financial intermediaries and charge a 0.25% 12b-1 fee. Each share class is presented separately in the table.

Actual Expenses
The first line of the following table (“Actual”) provides information about actual account values and expenses based on the fund’s actual returns. You may use the information in this line, together with your account balance, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The information on the second line of the table (“Hypothetical”) is based on hypothetical account values and expenses derived from the fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed 5% per year rate of return before expenses (not the fund’s actual return). You may compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds by contrasting this 5% hypothetical example and the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period.

Note: T. Rowe Price charges an annual small-account maintenance fee of $10, generally for accounts with less than $2,000 ($500 for UGMA/UTMA). The fee is waived for any investor whose T. Rowe Price mutual fund accounts total $25,000 or more, accounts employing automatic investing, and IRAs and other retirement plan accounts that utilize a prototype plan sponsored by T. Rowe Price (although a separate custodial or administrative fee may apply to such accounts). This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

You should also be aware that the expenses shown in the table highlight only your ongoing costs and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as redemption fees or sales loads. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. To the extent a fund charges transaction costs, however, the total cost of owning that fund is higher.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

T. Rowe Price New America Growth Fund (the fund), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The fund seeks to provide long-term capital growth by investing primarily in the common stocks of growth companies. The fund has two classes of shares: the New America Growth Fund original share class, referred to in this report as the Investor Class, offered since September 30, 1985, and the New America Growth Fund – Advisor Class (Advisor Class), offered since December 29, 2005. Advisor Class shares are sold only through unaffiliated brokers and other unaffiliated financial intermediaries that are compensated by the class for distribution, shareholder servicing, and/or certain administrative services under a Board-approved Rule 12b-1 plan. Each class has exclusive voting rights on matters related solely to that class; separate voting rights on matters that relate to both classes; and, in all other respects, the same rights and obligations as the other class.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation The accompanying financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require the use of estimates made by fund management. Fund management believes that estimates and valuations are appropriate; however, actual results may differ from those estimates, and the valuations reflected in the accompanying financial statements may differ from the value ultimately realized upon sale or maturity.

Investment Transactions, Investment Income, and Distributions Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends received from mutual fund investments are reflected as dividend income; capital gain distributions are reflected as realized gain/loss. Dividend income and capital gain distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income tax-related interest and penalties, if incurred, would be recorded as income tax expense. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions are declared and paid by each class annually. Capital gain distributions, if any, are generally declared and paid by the fund annually.

Currency Translation Assets, including investments, and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar values each day at the prevailing exchange rate, using the mean of the bid and asked prices of such currencies against U.S. dollars as quoted by a major bank. Purchases and sales of securities, income, and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the date of the transaction. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on realized and unrealized security gains and losses is reflected as a component of security gains and losses.

Class Accounting The Advisor Class pays distribution, shareholder servicing, and/or certain administrative expenses in the form of Rule 12b-1 fees, in an amount not exceeding 0.25% of the class’s average daily net assets. Shareholder servicing, prospectus, and shareholder report expenses incurred by each class are charged directly to the class to which they relate. Expenses common to both classes, investment income, and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated to the classes based upon the relative daily net assets of each class.

Rebates and Credits Subject to best execution, the fund may direct certain security trades to brokers who have agreed to rebate a portion of the related brokerage commission to the fund in cash. Commission rebates are reflected as realized gain on securities in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $25,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010. Additionally, the fund earns credits on temporarily uninvested cash balances held at the custodian, which reduce the fund’s custody charges. Custody expense in the accompanying financial statements is presented before reduction for credits.

New Accounting Pronouncement On January 1, 2010, the fund adopted new accounting guidance that requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements in the financial statements. Adoption of this guidance had no impact on the fund’s net assets or results of operations.

NOTE 2 - VALUATION

The fund’s financial instruments are reported at fair value as defined by GAAP. The fund determines the values of its assets and liabilities and computes each class’s net asset value per share at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4 p.m. ET, each day that the NYSE is open for business.

Valuation Methods Equity securities listed or regularly traded on a securities exchange or in the over-the-counter (OTC) market are valued at the last quoted sale price or, for certain markets, the official closing price at the time the valuations are made, except for OTC Bulletin Board securities, which are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices. A security that is listed or traded on more than one exchange is valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be the primary market for such security. Listed securities not traded on a particular day are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices for domestic securities and the last quoted sale price for international securities.

Investments in mutual funds are valued at the mutual fund’s closing net asset value per share on the day of valuation.

Other investments, including restricted securities, and those financial instruments for which the above valuation procedures are inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair value as determined in good faith by the T. Rowe Price Valuation Committee, established by the fund’s Board of Trustees.

For valuation purposes, the last quoted prices of non-U.S. equity securities may be adjusted under the circumstances described below. If the fund determines that developments between the close of a foreign market and the close of the NYSE will, in its judgment, materially affect the value of some or all of its portfolio securities, the fund will adjust the previous closing prices to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities as of the close of the NYSE. In deciding whether it is necessary to adjust closing prices to reflect fair value, the fund reviews a variety of factors, including developments in foreign markets, the performance of U.S. securities markets, and the performance of instruments trading in U.S. markets that represent foreign securities and baskets of foreign securities. A fund may also fair value securities in other situations, such as when a particular foreign market is closed but the fund is open. The fund uses outside pricing services to provide it with closing prices and information to evaluate and/or adjust those prices. The fund cannot predict how often it will use closing prices and how often it will determine it necessary to adjust those prices to reflect fair value. As a means of evaluating its security valuation process, the fund routinely compares closing prices, the next day’s opening prices in the same markets, and adjusted prices.

Valuation Inputs Various inputs are used to determine the value of the fund’s financial instruments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical financial instruments

Level 2 – observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar financial instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, and credit risk)

Level 3 – unobservable inputs

Observable inputs are those based on market data obtained from sources independent of the fund, and unobservable inputs reflect the fund’s own assumptions based on the best information available. The input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with financial instruments at that level. For example, non-U.S. equity securities actively traded in foreign markets generally are reflected in Level 2 despite the availability of closing prices because the fund evaluates and determines whether those closing prices reflect fair value at the close of the NYSE or require adjustment, as described above. The following table summarizes the fund’s financial instruments, based on the inputs used to determine their values on December 31, 2010:

Following is a reconciliation of the fund’s Level 3 holdings for the year ended December 31, 2010. Gain (loss) reflects both realized and change in unrealized gain (loss) on Level 3 holdings during the period, if any, and is included on the accompanying Statement of Operations. The change in unrealized gain (loss) on Level 3 instruments held at December 31, 2010, totaled $0 for the year ended December 31, 2010.

NOTE 3 - OTHER INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Consistent with its investment objective, the fund engages in the following practices to manage exposure to certain risks and/or to enhance performance. The investment objective, policies, program, and risk factors of the fund are described more fully in the fund’s prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.

Restricted Securities The fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Prompt sale of such securities at an acceptable price may be difficult and may involve substantial delays and additional costs.

Other Purchases and sales of portfolio securities other than short-term securities aggregated $807,304,000 and $585,151,000, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2010.

NOTE 4 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

No provision for federal income taxes is required since the fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and distribute to shareholders all of its taxable income and gains. Distributions determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations may differ in amount or character from net investment income and realized gains for financial reporting purposes. Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character but are not adjusted for temporary differences.

The fund files U.S. federal, state, and local tax returns as required. The fund’s tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return but which can be extended to six years in certain circumstances. Tax returns for open years have incorporated no uncertain tax positions that require a provision for income taxes.

Reclassifications between income and gain relate primarily to the recharacterization of distributions. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the following reclassifications were recorded to reflect tax character; there was no impact on results of operations or net assets:

Distributions during the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were characterized for tax purposes as follows:

At December 31, 2010, the tax-basis cost of investments and components of net assets were as follows:

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributable to the deferral of losses from wash sales for tax purposes. The fund intends to retain realized gains to the extent of available capital loss carryforwards. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the fund utilized $56,329,000 of capital loss carryforwards. In accordance with federal income tax regulations applicable to investment companies, recognition of capital and/or currency losses on certain transactions realized between November 1 and the fund’s fiscal year-end is deferred for tax purposes until the subsequent year (post-October loss deferrals); however, such losses are recognized for financial reporting purposes in the year realized.

NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The fund is managed by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (the manager or Price Associates), a wholly owned subsidiary of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. The investment management agreement between the fund and the manager provides for an annual investment management fee, which is computed daily and paid monthly. The fee consists of an individual fund fee, equal to 0.35% of the fund’s average daily net assets, and a group fee. The group fee rate is calculated based on the combined net assets of certain mutual funds sponsored by Price Associates (the group) applied to a graduated fee schedule, with rates ranging from 0.48% for the first $1 billion of assets to 0.285% for assets in excess of $220 billion. The fund’s group fee is determined by applying the group fee rate to the fund’s average daily net assets. At December 31, 2010, the effective annual group fee rate was 0.30%.

The Advisor Class is also subject to a contractual expense limitation through April 30, 2012. During the limitation period, the manager is required to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses, excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses that would otherwise cause the class’s ratio of annualized total expenses to average net assets (expense ratio) to exceed its expense limitation of 1.10%. For a period of three years after the date of any reimbursement or waiver, each class is required to repay the manager for expenses previously reimbursed and management fees waived to the extent the class’s net assets have grown or expenses have declined sufficiently to allow repayment without causing the class’s expense ratio to exceed its expense limitation. Pursuant to this agreement, expenses in the amount of $4,000 were repaid to the manager during the year ended December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, there were no amounts subject to repayment. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Advisor Class operated below its expense limitation.

In addition, the fund has entered into service agreements with Price Associates and two wholly owned subsidiaries of Price Associates (collectively, Price). Price Associates computes the daily share prices and provides certain other administrative services to the fund. T. Rowe Price Services, Inc., provides shareholder and administrative services in its capacity as the fund’s transfer and dividend disbursing agent. T. Rowe Price Retirement Plan Services, Inc., provides subaccounting and recordkeeping services for certain retirement accounts invested in the Investor Class. For the year ended December 31, 2010, expenses incurred pursuant to these service agreements were $98,000 for Price Associates; $631,000 for T. Rowe Price Services, Inc.; and $354,000 for T. Rowe Price Retirement Plan Services, Inc. The total amount payable at period-end pursuant to these service agreements is reflected as Due to Affiliates in the accompanying financial statements.

The fund may invest in the T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Fund and the T. Rowe Price Government Reserve Investment Fund (collectively, the T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Funds), open-end management investment companies managed by Price Associates and considered affiliates of the fund. The T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Funds are offered as cash management options to mutual funds, trusts, and other accounts managed by Price Associates and/or its affiliates and are not available for direct purchase by members of the public. The T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Funds pay no investment management fees.

As of December 31, 2010, T. Rowe Price Group, Inc., and/or its wholly owned subsidiaries owned 371,427 shares of the Investor Class, aggregating less than 1% of the fund’s net assets.

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
T. Rowe Price New America Growth Fund

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of T. Rowe Price New America Growth Fund (the “Fund”) at December 31, 2010, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, and confirmation of the underlying funds by correspondence with the transfer agent, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Item 2. Code of Ethics.

The registrant has adopted a code of ethics, as defined in Item 2 of Form N-CSR, applicable to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of this code of ethics is filed as an exhibit to this Form N-CSR. No substantive amendments were approved or waivers were granted to this code of ethics during the period covered by this report.

Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.

The registrant’s Board of Directors/Trustees has determined that Mr. Anthony W. Deering qualifies as an audit committee financial expert, as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR. Mr. Deering is considered independent for purposes of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.

Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

(a) – (d) Aggregate fees billed to the registrant for the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the registrant’s principal accountant were as follows:

Audit fees include amounts related to the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements and services normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings. Audit-related fees include amounts reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the registrant’s financial statements and specifically include the issuance of a report on internal controls and, if applicable, agreed-upon procedures related to fund acquisitions. Tax fees include amounts related to services for tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice. The nature of these services specifically includes the review of distribution calculations and the preparation of Federal, state, and excise tax returns. All other fees include the registrant’s pro-rata share of amounts for agreed-upon procedures in conjunction with service contract approvals by the registrant’s Board of Directors/Trustees.

(e)(1) The registrant’s audit committee has adopted a policy whereby audit and non-audit services performed by the registrant’s principal accountant for the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant require pre-approval in advance at regularly scheduled audit committee meetings. If such a service is required between regularly scheduled audit committee meetings, pre-approval may be authorized by one audit committee member with ratification at the next scheduled audit committee meeting. Waiver of pre-approval for audit or non-audit services requiring fees of a de minimis amount is not permitted.

    (2) No services included in (b) – (d) above were approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(f) Less than 50 percent of the hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.

(g) The aggregate fees billed for the most recent fiscal year and the preceding fiscal year by the registrant’s principal accountant for non-audit services rendered to the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant were $1,417,000 and $1,879,000, respectively.

(h) All non-audit services rendered in (g) above were pre-approved by the registrant’s audit committee. Accordingly, these services were considered by the registrant’s audit committee in maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

Item 5. Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.

Not applicable.

Item 6. Investments.

(a) Not applicable. The complete schedule of investments is included in Item 1 of this Form N-CSR.

(b) Not applicable.

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

(b) The registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are aware of no change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s second fiscal quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

EX-99.CODE ETH

CODE OF ETHICS FOR PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE AND SENIOR FINANCIAL     

OFFICERS OF THE PRICE FUNDS     

UNDER THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002     

I. General Statement. This Code of Ethics (the “Price Funds S-O Code”) has been designed 

to bring the Price Funds into compliance with the applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley 

Act of 2002 (the “Act”) rules promulgated by The Securities and Exchange Commission 

thereunder (“Regulations”). The Price Funds S-O Code applies solely to the Principal 

Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer or Controller of, or 

persons performing similar functions for, a Price Fund (whether such persons are employed by a 

Price Fund or third party) (“Covered Officers”). The “Price Funds” shall include each mutual 

fund that is managed, sponsored and distributed by affiliates of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. 

(“Group”). The investment managers to the Price Funds will be referred to as the “Price Fund 

Advisers.” A list of Covered Officers is attached as Exhibit A. 

The Price Fund Advisers have, along with their parent, T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. (“Group”) 

also maintained a comprehensive Code of Ethics and Conduct (the “Group Code”) since 1972, 

which applies to all officers, directors and employees of the Price Funds, Group and its affiliates. 

As mandated by the Act, Group has adopted a Code (the “Group S-O Code”), similar to the 

Price Funds S-O Code, which applies solely to its principal executive and senior financial 

officers. The Group S-O Code and the Price Funds S-O Code will be referred to collectively as 

the “S-O Codes”. 

The Price Funds S-O Code has been adopted by the Price Funds in accordance with the Act and 

Regulations thereunder and will be administered in conformity with the disclosure requirements 

of Item 2 of Form N-CSR. The S-O Codes are attachments to the Group Code. In many respects 

the S-O Codes are supplementary to the Group Code, but the Group Code is administered 

separately from the S-O Codes, as the S-O Codes are from each other. 

II. Purpose of the Price Funds S-O Code. The purpose of the Price Funds S-O Code, as 

mandated by the Act and the Regulations, is to establish standards that are reasonably designed 

to deter wrongdoing and to promote: 

             Ethical Conduct. Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or 

             apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships. 

             Disclosure. Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and 

             documents that the Price Funds file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public 

             communications made by the Price Funds. 

             Compliance. Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations. 

             Reporting of Violations. The prompt internal reporting of violations of the Price Funds 

             S-O Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Price Funds S-O Code. 

             Accountability. Accountability for adherence to the Price Funds S-O Code. 

III. Covered Officers Should Handle Ethically Actual and Apparent Conflicts of Interest. 

Overview. Each Covered Officer owes a duty to the Price Funds to adhere to a high standard of 

honesty and business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as 

well as apparent conflicts of interest. 

A “conflict of interest” occurs when a Covered Officer’s private interest interferes with the 

interests of, or his or her service to, the Price Funds. For example, a conflict of interest would 

arise if a Covered Officer, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits 

as a result of his or her position with a Price Fund. 

Certain conflicts of interest covered by the Price Funds S-O Code arise out of the relationships 

between Covered Officers and the Price Funds and may already be subject to provisions 

regulating conflicts of interest in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“Investment Company 

Act”), the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (“Investment Advisers Act”) and the Group Code. 

For example, Covered Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as the 

purchase or sale of securities or other property) with a Price Fund because of their status as 

“affiliated persons” of a Price Fund. The compliance programs and procedures of the Price 

Funds and Price Fund Advisers are designed to prevent, or identify and correct, violations of 

these provisions. 

Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts arise 

from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship between a Price Fund and its Price Fund 

Adviser (and its affiliates) of which the Covered Officers may also be officers or employees. As 

a result, the Price Funds S-O Code recognizes that the Covered Officers will, in the normal 

course of their duties (whether formally for the Price Funds or for the Price Fund Advisers, or for 

both), be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions which will have different 

effects on these entities. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent 

in the contractual relationship between each Price Fund and its respective Price Fund Adviser. 

Such participation is also consistent with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties 

as officers of the Price Funds and, if consistent with the provisions of the Investment Company 

Act and the Investment Advisers Act, it will be deemed to have been handled ethically. 

Other conflicts of interest are covered by the Price Funds S-O Code, even if these conflicts of 

interest are not addressed by or subject to provisions in the Investment Company Act and the 

Investment Advisers Act. 

Whenever a Covered Officer is confronted with a conflict of interest situation where he or she is 

uncertain as to the appropriate action to be taken, he or she should discuss the matter with the 

Chairperson of Group’s Ethics Committee or another member of the Committee. 

Handling of Specific Types of Conflicts. Each Covered Officer (and close family members) 

must not: 

              Entertainment. Accept entertainment from any company with which any Price 

              Fund or any Price Fund Adviser has current or prospective business dealings, 

              including portfolio companies, unless such entertainment is in full compliance 

              with the policy on entertainment as set forth in the Group Code. 

              Gifts. Accept any gifts, except as permitted by the Group Code. 

               Improper Personal Influence. Use his or her personal influence or personal 

               relationships improperly to influence investment decisions, brokerage allocations 

               or financial reporting by the Price Funds to the detriment of any one or more of 

               the Price Funds. 

               Taking Action at the Expense of a Price Fund. Cause a Price Fund to take 

               action, or fail to take action, for the personal benefit of the Covered Officer rather 

               than for the benefit of one or more of the Price Funds. 

               Misuse of Price Funds’ Transaction Information. Use knowledge of portfolio 

               transactions made or contemplated for a Price Fund or any other clients of the 

               Price Fund Advisers to trade personally or cause others to trade in order to take 

               advantage of or avoid the market impact of such portfolio transactions. 

               Outside Business Activities. Engage in any outside business activity that 

               detracts from a Covered Officer’s ability to devote appropriate time and attention 

               to his or her responsibilities to a Price Fund. 

               Service Providers. Excluding Group and its affiliates, have any ownership 

               interest in, or any consulting or employment relationship with, any of the Price 

               Funds’ service providers, except that an ownership interest in public companies is 

               permitted 

               Receipt of Payments. Have a direct or indirect financial interest in commissions, 

               transaction charges, spreads or other payments paid by a Price Fund for effecting 

               portfolio transactions or for selling or redeeming shares other than an interest 

               (such as compensation or equity ownership) arising from the Covered Officer’s 

               employment by Group or any of its affiliates. 

               Service as a Director or Trustee. Serve as a director, trustee or officer of any 

               public or private company or a non-profit organization that issues securities 

               eligible for purchase by any of the Price Funds, unless approval is obtained as 

               required by the Group Code. 

IV. Covered Officers’ Specific Obligations and Accountabilities.   

               A. Disclosure Requirements and Controls. Each Covered Officer must 

               familiarize himself or herself with the disclosure requirements (Form N-1A registration 

               statement, proxy (Schedule 14A), shareholder reports, Forms N-SAR, N-CSR, etc.) 

               applicable to the Price Funds and the disclosure controls and procedures of the Price 

               Fund and the Price Fund Advisers. 

               B. Compliance with Applicable Law. It is the responsibility of each Covered 

               Officer to promote compliance with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Price 

               Funds and the Price Fund Advisers. Each Covered Officer should, to the extent 

               appropriate within his or her area of responsibility, consult with other officers and 

               employees of the Price Funds and the Price Fund Advisers and take other appropriate 

               steps with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure 

               in the reports and documents the Price Funds file with, or submit to, the SEC, and in 

               other public communications made by the Price Funds. 

               C. Fair Disclosure. Each Covered Officer must not knowingly misrepresent, or 

               cause others to misrepresent, facts about a Price Fund to others, whether within or 

               outside the Price organization, including to the Price Fund’s directors and auditors, and 

               to governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations. 

               D. Initial and Annual Affirmations. Each Covered Officer must:

                     1. Upon adoption of the Price Funds S-O Code (or thereafter, as applicable, upon 

                     becoming a Covered Officer), affirm in writing that he or she has received, read, 

                     and understands the Price Funds S-O Code. 

                     2. Annually affirm that he or she has complied with the requirements of the Price 

                     Funds S-O Code. 

               E. Reporting of Material Violations of the Price Funds S-O Code. If a 

               Covered Officer becomes aware of any material violation of the Price Funds S-O Code 

               or laws and governmental rules and regulations applicable to the operations of the 

               Price Funds, he or she must promptly report the violation (“Report”) to the Chief 

               Legal Counsel of the Price Funds (“CLC”). Failure to report a material violation will 

               be considered itself a violation of the Price Funds S-O Code. The CLC is identified in 

               the attached Exhibit B. 

               It is the Price Funds policy that no retaliation or other adverse action will be taken 

               against any Covered Officer or other employee of a Price Fund, a Price Fund Adviser 

               or their affiliates based upon any lawful actions of the Covered Officer or employee 

               with respect to a Report made in good faith. 

               F. Annual Disclosures. Each Covered Officer must report, at least annually, all 

               affiliations or other relationships as called for in the “Annual Questionnaire for 

               Executive Officers and/or Employee Directors/Trustees of Group and the Price Funds.” 

V. Administration of the Price Funds S-O Code. The Ethics Committee is responsible for 

administering the Price Funds S-O Code and applying its provisions to specific situations in 

which questions are presented. 

               A. Waivers and Interpretations. The Chairperson of the Ethics Committee has 

               the authority to interpret the Price Funds S-O Code in any particular situation and to 

               grant waivers where justified, subject to the approval of the Joint Audit Committee of 

               the Price Funds. All material interpretations concerning Covered Officers will be 

               reported to the Joint Audit Committee of the Price Funds at its next meeting. Waivers, 

               including implicit waivers, to Covered Officers will be publicly disclosed as required 

               in the Instructions to N-CSR. Pursuant to the definition in the Regulations, an implicit 

               waiver means a Price Fund’s failure to take action within a reasonable period of time 

               regarding a material departure from a provision of the Price Funds S-O Code that has 

               been made known to an “executive officer” (as defined in Rule 3b-7 under the 

               Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of a Price Fund. An executive officer of a Price 

               Fund includes its president and any vice-president in charge of a principal business 

               unit, division or function. 

               B. Violations/Investigations. The following procedures will be followed in 

               investigating and enforcing the Price Funds S-O Code: 

                     1. The CLC will take or cause to be taken appropriate action to 

                     investigate any potential or actual violation reported to him or her. 

                     2. The CLC, after consultation if deemed appropriate with Outside 

                     Counsel to the Price Funds, will make a recommendation to the 

                     appropriate Price Funds Board regarding the action to be taken with 

                     regard to each material violation. Such action could include any of the 

                     following: a letter of censure or suspension, a fine, a suspension of trading 

                     privileges or termination of officership or employment. In addition, the 

                     violator may be required to surrender any profit realized (or loss avoided) 

                     from any activity that is in violation of the Price Funds S-O Code. 

VI. Amendments to the Price Funds S-O Code. Except as to the contents of Exhibit A and 

Exhibit B, the Price Funds S-O Code may not be materially amended except in written form, 

which is specifically approved or ratified by a majority vote of each Price Fund Board, including 

a majority of the independent directors on each Board. 

VII. Confidentiality. All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to the Price 

Funds S-O Code will be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected 

accordingly. Except as otherwise required by law, the Price Funds S-O Code or as necessary in 

connection with regulations under the Price Funds S-O Code, such matters shall not be disclosed 

to anyone other than the directors of the appropriate Price Fund Board, Outside Counsel to the 

Price Funds, members of the Ethics Committee and the CLC and authorized persons on his or 

her staff.
