To the knowledge of the trust, no other shareholder owned of record or beneficially more than 5% of the outstanding shares of each class of the funds on that date.

FMR has advised the trust that certain shares are registered to FMR or an FMR affiliate. To the extent that FMR or an FMR affiliate has discretion to vote, these shares will be voted at the Meeting FOR each proposal.

VOTE REQUIRED: Approval of Proposal 1 requires the affirmative vote of a "majority of the outstanding voting securities" of the entire trust. Approval of Proposal 2 requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares of the entire trust voted in person or by proxy at the Meeting. Approval of Proposals 3 and 4 requires the affirmative vote of a "majority of the outstanding voting securities" of the appropriate fund. Under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act), the vote of a "majority of the outstanding voting securities" means the affirmative vote of the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the voting securities present at the Meeting or represented by proxy if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities. With respect to each Proposal, votes to ABSTAIN and broker non-votes will have the same effect as votes cast AGAINST the proposal.

1. TO AMEND THE DECLARATION OF TRUST TO ALLOW THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES, IF PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TO AUTHORIZE FUND MERGERS WITHOUT SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL.

<R>The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has recently changed the rules for mutual fund mergers (Rule 17a-8 under the 1940 Act) to reduce the need for affiliated funds to incur the expense of soliciting proxies when a merger does not raise significant issues for shareholders - for example, merging two small Fidelity funds, with the same portfolio manager, the same investment principles and the same fee structures in order to achieve economies of scale and thereby reduce fund expenses borne by shareholders. The rules still require the board of trustees (including a majority of non-interested trustees) to determine that any merger is in the best interest of the affiliated funds and will not dilute the interest of their existing shareholders. The new SEC rules also require shareholder approval by the acquired affiliated fund for mergers that could have a material impact on a shareholder, like changing a fundamental investment policy or increasing fund expenses (see below).</R>

The fund's current Declaration of Trust was drafted to be consistent with the old SEC rules which required approval of all mergers between affiliated funds by the shareholders of the fund to be acquired. You are being asked now to approve an amendment to the Declaration of Trust (Article XII, Section 4.3), consistent with the new affiliated fund merger rules, to permit the Trustees in limited circumstances to authorize a fund's or class's merger or consolidation with, or sale of a fund's or class's assets to, another operating mutual fund without a shareholder vote. You are not being asked to approve any fund mergers at this time.

Shareholders have the right to vote on any Declaration of Trust amendment affecting their right to vote or on any matter submitted to the shareholders by the Trustees. On April 15, 2004, the Trustees approved the proposed amendment and also authorized its submission to the trust's shareholders for their approval at this Meeting.

The amendment will give the Trustees more flexibility and, subject to applicable requirements of Federal law, namely the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act), and Massachusetts law, broader authority to act. The amendment will not alter in any way the Trustees' existing fiduciary obligations to act with due care and in the shareholders' interests. Before using any new flexibility that the proposed amendment may afford, the Trustees must first consider the shareholders' interests and then act in accordance with such interests. Shareholders of an acquired affiliated fund will still be required to approve a merger that would result in a change of a fundamental investment policy, a material change to the terms of an investment management contract, the institution of, or an increase in, a 12b-1 fee or where the board of trustees of the surviving fund does not have a majority of non-interested trustees who were elected by the acquired fund's shareholders. Shareholder approval will also continue to be required for all mergers of non-affiliated funds.

Article XII, Section 4.3 of the Declaration of Trust addresses mergers, consolidations, and sales of fund assets. If approved, Article XII, Section 4.3 will be amended as follows (new language is underlined; language to be deleted is [bracketed]):

ARTICLE XII
MISCELLANEOUS

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 by the Trustees without the vote or consent of Shareholders[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.

Conclusion. The Board of Trustees has concluded that the proposal will benefit the trust and its shareholders. The Trustees recommend voting FOR the proposal. The amended Declaration of Trust will become effective upon shareholder approval. If the proposal is not approved by shareholders of the trust, Article XII, Section 4.3 of the Declaration of Trust will remain unchanged.

2. TO ELECT A BOARD OF TRUSTEES.

The purpose of this proposal is to elect a Board of Trustees of the trust.

+ Estimated for the fund's first full year.

A Information is for the calendar year ended December 31, 2003 for 293 funds of 57 trusts in the fund complex. Compensation figures include cash, amounts required to be deferred, and may include amounts deferred at the election of Trustees. For the calendar year ended December 31, 2003, the Trustees accrued required deferred compensation from the funds as follows: J. Michael Cook, $111,000; Ralph F. Cox, $111,000; Phyllis Burke Davis, $111,000; Robert M. Gates, $111,000; Donald J. Kirk, $111,000; Marie L. Knowles, $111,000; Ned C. Lautenbach, $111,000; Marvin L. Mann, $141,000; William O. McCoy, $111,000; and William S. Stavropoulos, $111,000. Certain of the non-interested Trustees elected voluntarily to defer a portion of their compensation as follows: J. Michael Cook, $35,316.47; Ralph F. Cox, $35,316.47; Phyllis Burke Davis, $44,989.93; Ned C. Lautenbach, $44,989.93; and William O. McCoy, $82,489.93.

B Compensation figures include cash and may include amounts deferred at Mr. McCoy's election under a deferred compensation plan adopted by the other open-end registered investment companies in the fund complex (Other Open-End Funds). Pursuant to the deferred compensation plan, Mr. McCoy, as a non-interested Trustee, may elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of his annual fees. Amounts deferred under the deferred compensation plan are credited to an account established for Mr. McCoy on the books of the Other Open-End Funds. Interest is accrued on amounts deferred under the deferred compensation plan. For the calendar year ended December 31, 2003, Mr. McCoy voluntarily elected to defer $37,500.

<R>C Compensation figures include cash, amounts required to be deferred, and may include amounts deferred at the election of Trustees. The amounts required to be deferred by each non-interested Trustee are as follows: J. Michael Cook, $519; Ralph F. Cox, $519; Phyllis Burke Davis, $86; Robert M. Gates, $519; George H. Heilmeier, $434; Donald J. Kirk, $519; Marie L. Knowles, $553; Ned C. Lautenbach, $519; Marvin L. Mann, $689; William O. McCoy, $519; and William S. Stavropoulos, $519. Certain of the non-interested Trustees' aggregate compensation from the fund includes accrued voluntary deferred compensation as follows: J. Michael Cook, $205; Ralph F. Cox, $205; Phyllis Burke Davis, $35; Ned C. Lautenbach, $205; and William O. McCoy, $205.</R>

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.

3. TO MODIFY THE FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE OF FIDELITY ADVISOR INTERMEDIATE BOND FUND.

The Board of Trustees, including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the trust or of FMR under the 1940 Act (the Non-Interested Trustees), has approved, and recommends that shareholders of Fidelity Advisor Intermediate Bond Fund approve, a proposal to modify the fundamental investment objective of the fund. The Trustees and FMR believe the proposed change is in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

The fund's fundamental investment objective currently reads as follows:

"Fidelity Advisor Intermediate Bond Fund seeks to provide a high rate of income. In addition, the fund may seek capital appreciation when consistent with this primary objective."

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

"Fidelity Advisor Intermediate Bond Fund seeks to provide a high rate of income. [In addition, the fund may seek capital appreciation when consistent with this primary objective.]"

The purpose of this proposal is to align the fundamental investment objectives of the Advisor fund with its retail counterpart, so that the investment objectives of both funds, which do not differ materially, are stated in the same words.

Discussion of Proposed Modifications. Modifying the fund's fundamental investment objective as described above will eliminate any non-substantive differences in the registration statements of Fidelity funds that are managed the same way. The requested action will have no material effect on the way the fund is managed.

<R>In July 2002, the SEC approved amendments to Rule 17a-8 that would require shareholder approval for a merger between affiliated funds with materially different fundamental investment objectives. While the investment objectives of the two funds are not materially different, aligning the funds' fundamental investment objectives so that they are identically stated will remove a potential impediment to merging the funds in reliance on Rule 17a-8 should such a transaction be determined to be in shareholders' best interests in the future. FMR has no current intention of recommending mergers between the retail and Advisor funds. </R>

Conclusion. The Board of Trustees, including the Non-Interested Trustees, has concluded that it is in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders to modify the fundamental investment objective as set forth above, and recommends that shareholders vote FOR 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 shareholders, the fund's current fundamental investment objective discussed above will not change.

4. TO MODIFY THE FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE OF FIDELITY ADVISOR SHORT FIXED-INCOME FUND.

The Board of Trustees, including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the trust or of FMR under the 1940 Act (the Non-Interested Trustees), has approved, and recommends that shareholders of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund approve, a proposal to modify the fundamental investment objective of the fund. The Trustees and FMR believe the proposed change is in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

The fund's fundamental investment objective currently reads as follows:

"Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund seeks to obtain a high level of current income, consistent with the preservation of capital. Where appropriate the fund will take advantage of opportunities to realize capital appreciation."

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

"Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund seeks to obtain a high level of current income[,] consistent with the preservation of capital. [Where appropriate the fund will take advantage of opportunities to realize capital appreciation.]"

The purpose of this proposal is to align the fundamental investment objectives of the Advisor fund with its retail counterpart so that the investment objectives of both funds, which do not differ materially, are stated in the same words.

Discussion of Proposed Modifications. Modifying the fund's fundamental investment objective as described above will eliminate any non-substantive differences in the registration statements of Fidelity funds that are managed the same way.

If approved by shareholders, the change will become effective when the prospectus is revised to reflect it. If the proposal is not approved by shareholders, the fund's current fundamental investment objective discussed above will not change.

STANDING COMMITTEES OF THE FUNDS' TRUSTEES

Correspondence intended for each non-interested (independent) Trustee may be sent to the attention of the individual Trustee or to the Board of Trustees at Fidelity Investments, P.O. Box 55235, Boston, Massachusetts 02205-5235. Correspondence intended for each interested Trustee may be sent to the attention of the individual Trustee or to the Board of Trustees at Fidelity Investments, 82 Devonshire Street, Boston, Massachusetts, 02109. The current process for collecting and organizing shareholder communications requires that the Board of Trustees receive copies of all communications addressed to it. All communications addressed to the Board of Trustees or any individual Trustee are logged and sent to the Board or individual Trustee. The fund does not hold annual meetings and therefore does not have a policy with regard to Trustees' attendance at such meetings. However, as a matter of practice, at least one Trustee attends special meetings.

The Board of Trustees has established various committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to non-interested Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Currently, the Board of Trustees has 10 standing committees.

The Operations Committee is composed of all of the non-interested Trustees, with Mr. Mann currently serving as Chair. The committee normally meets monthly (except August), or more frequently as called by the Chair, and serves as a forum for consideration of issues of importance to, or calling for particular determinations by, the non-interested Trustees. The committee also considers matters involving potential conflicts of interest between the funds and FMR and its affiliates and reviews proposed contracts and the proposed continuation of contracts between the Fidelity funds and FMR and its affiliates, and annually reviews and makes recommendations regarding transfer agent and other service agreements, insurance coverage, and custody agreements. The committee also monitors additional issues including the nature, levels and quality of services provided to shareholders, significant litigation, and the voting of proxies of portfolio companies. The committee also has oversight of compliance issues not specifically in the scope of the charters of the Audit Committee or Fund Oversight Committees and considers other operating matters not specifically within the scope of oversight of any other committee. The committee is also responsible for definitive action on all compliance matters involving the potential for significant reimbursement by FMR. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the committee held 12 meetings. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, the committee held 12 meetings.

The Fair Value Oversight Committee is composed of all of the non-interested Trustees, with Mr. Mann serving as Chair. The committee normally meets quarterly, or more frequently as called by the Chair, in conjunction with meetings of the Board of Trustees. The Fair Value Oversight Committee monitors and establishes policies concerning procedures and controls regarding the valuation of fund investments and their classification as liquid or illiquid and monitors matters of disclosure to the extent required to fulfill its statutory responsibilities. The committee provides oversight regarding the investment policies relating to, and Fidelity funds' investment in, non-traditional securities. The committee also reviews actions taken by FMR's Fair Value Committee. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the committee held 12 meetings. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, the committee held four meetings.

The Board of Trustees has established three Fund Oversight Committees: the Equity Committee (composed of Messrs. Lautenbach (Chair), Kirk, and Stavropoulos), the Fixed-Income and International Committee (composed of Messrs. Cook (Chair) and Cox, and Ms. Knowles), and the Select and Special Committee (composed of Messrs. McCoy (Chair), Gates, and Heilmeier). Each committee normally meets monthly (except August) or more frequently as called by the Chair of the respective committee. Each committee oversees investment advisory services provided by FMR to the relevant funds and develops an understanding of and monitors the investment objectives, policies, and practices of the relevant Fidelity funds. Each committee also monitors investment performance, compliance by each relevant Fidelity fund with its investment policies and restrictions and reviews appropriate benchmarks, competitive universes, unusual or exceptional investment matters and the personnel and other resources devoted to the management of each fund. The Fixed-Income and International Committee also receives reports required under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act and has oversight of research bearing on credit quality, investment structures and other fixed-income issues, and of international research. The Select and Special Committee has oversight of FMR's equity investment research. Each committee will review and recommend any required action to the Board in respect of specific funds, including new funds, changes in fundamental and non-fundamental investment policies and restrictions, partial or full closing to new investors, fund mergers, fund name changes, and liquidations of funds. The non-interested Trustees of each committee may organize working groups to make recommendations concerning issues related to funds that are within the scope of the committee's review. These working groups report to the committee or to the non-interested Trustees, or both, as appropriate. Each working group may request from FMR such information from FMR as may be appropriate to the working group's deliberations. Prior to December 2003, the Fixed-Income and International Committe was known as the Fixed-Income/International Committee, and the Select and Special Committee was known as the Select Committee. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the Equity Committee held 10 meetings, the Fixed-Income and International Committee held 11 meetings, and the Select and Special Committee held 10 meetings. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, the Equity Committee held 12 meetings, the Fixed-Income and International Committee held 11 meetings, and the Select and Special Committee held 11 meetings.

The Board of Trustees established in December 2003 two Fund Contract Committees: the Equity Contract Committee (composed of Messrs. Lautenbach (Chair), Cook, and McCoy) and the Fixed-Income Contract Committee (composed of Messrs. Cook (Chair) and Cox, and Ms. Knowles). Each committee ordinarily meets monthly during the first six months of each year and more frequently as necessary to consider matters related to the renewal of fund investment advisory agreements. The committees will assist the Board of Trustees in its consideration of investment advisory agreements of each fund. Each committee receives information on and makes recommendations concerning the approval of investment advisory agreements between the Fidelity funds and FMR and its affiliates and any non-FMR affiliate that serves as a sub-adviser to a Fidelity fund (collectively, "investment advisers") and the annual review of these contracts. The Fixed-Income Contract Committee will be responsible for investment advisory agreements of the fixed-income funds. The Equity Contract Committee will be responsible for the investment advisory agreements of all other funds. With respect to each fund under its purview, each committee: requests and receives information on the nature, levels, and quality of services provided to the shareholders of the Fidelity funds by the investment advisers and their respective affiliates, fund performance, and such other information as the committee determines to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreements; considers the profitability and other benefits that the investment advisers and their respective affiliates derive from their contractual arrangements with each of the funds (including tangible and intangible "fall-out benefits"); considers methodologies for determining the extent to which the funds benefit from economies of scale and refinements to these methodologies; considers such other matters and information as may be necessary and appropriate to evaluate investment advisory agreements of the funds; and makes recommendations to the Board concerning the approval or renewal of investment advisory agreements. Each committee will consult with the other committees of the Board of Trustees, and in particular with the Audit Committee and the applicable Fund Oversight Committees, in carrying out its responsibilities. Each committee's responsibilities are guided by Sections 15(c) and 36(b) of the 1940 Act. While each committee consists solely of non-interested Trustees, its meetings may, depending upon the subject matter, be attended by one or more senior members of FMR's management or representatives of a sub-adviser not affiliated with FMR. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, each Fund Contract Committee held no meetings. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, the Equity Contract Committee held three meetings and the Fixed-Income Contract Committee held two meetings.

The Shareholder Services, Brokerage, and Distribution Committee is composed of Messrs. Cox (Chair), Cook, Heilmeier, Lautenbach, and Stavropoulos. The committee normally meets in conjunction with in-person meetings of the Board of Trustees, or more frequently as called by the Chair. Regarding shareholder services, the committee considers the structure and amount of the Fidelity funds' transfer agency fees, custody fees, and direct fees to investors (other than sales loads), such as small account and exchange fees, and the nature and quality of services rendered by FMR and its affiliates or third parties (such as custodians) in consideration of these fees. The committee also considers other non-investment management services rendered to the Fidelity funds by FMR and its affiliates, including pricing and bookkeeping services and fees. Regarding brokerage, the committee monitors and recommends policies concerning the securities transactions of the Fidelity funds. The committee periodically reviews the policies and practices with respect to efforts to achieve best execution and commissions paid to firms supplying research and brokerage services or paying fund expenses. The committee also monitors brokerage and other similar relationships between the Fidelity funds and firms affiliated with FMR that participate in the execution of securities transactions. Regarding the distribution of fund shares, the committee considers issues bearing on the various distribution channels employed by the Fidelity funds, including issues regarding Rule 18f-3 plans and related consideration of classes of shares, sales load structures (including breakpoints), load waivers, selling concessions, and service charges paid to intermediaries, Rule 12b-1 plans, contingent deferred sales charges, and finders' fees. The committee also oversees and receives reports on the preparation and use of advertisements and sales literature for the Fidelity funds. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the Shareholder Services, Brokerage, and Distribution Committee held nine meetings, the Committee on Service Fees held no meetings, the Committee on Distribution Channels held no meetings, and the Brokerage Committee held no meetings. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, the Shareholder Services, Brokerage, and Distribution Committee held 12 meetings, the Committee on Service Fees held no meetings, the Committee on Distribution Channels held no meetings, and the Brokerage Committee held no meetings.

<R>The Audit Committee is composed of Ms. Knowles (Chair) and Messrs. Gates, Kirk, and McCoy. All committee members must be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company's balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement. At least one committee member will be an "audit committee financial expert" as defined by the SEC. The committee normally meets in conjunction with in-person meetings of the Board of Trustees, or more frequently as called by the Chair. The committee meets separately at least four times a year with the Fidelity funds' Treasurer, with personnel responsible for the internal audit function of FMR Corp., and with the Fidelity funds' outside auditors. The committee has direct responsibility for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the work of the outside auditors employed by the Fidelity funds. The committee assists the Trustees in overseeing and monitoring: (i) the systems of internal accounting and financial controls of the Fidelity funds and the funds' service providers, (ii) the financial reporting processes of the Fidelity funds, (iii) the independence, objectivity, and qualification of the auditors to the Fidelity funds, (iv) the annual audits of the Fidelity funds' financial statements, and (v) the accounting policies and disclosures of the Fidelity funds. The committee considers and acts upon (i) the provision by any outside auditor of any non-audit services for any Fidelity fund, and (ii) the provision by any outside auditor of certain non-audit services to Fidelity fund service providers and their affiliates to the extent that such approval (in the case of this clause (ii)) is required under applicable regulations of the SEC. In furtherance of the foregoing, the committee has adopted (and may from time to time amend or supplement) and provides oversight of policies and procedures for non-audit engagements by outside auditors of the Fidelity funds. It is responsible for approving all audit engagement fees and terms for the Fidelity funds, resolving disagreements between a fund and any outside auditor regarding any fund's financial reporting, and has sole authority to hire and fire any auditor. Auditors of the funds report directly to the committee. The committee will obtain assurance of independence and objectivity from the outside auditors, including a formal written statement delineating all relationships between the auditor and the Fidelity funds and any service providers consistent with Independent Standards Board Standard No. 1. The committee will receive reports of compliance with provisions of the Auditor Independence Regulations relating to the hiring of employees or former employees of the outside auditors. It oversees and receives reports on the Fidelity funds' service providers' internal controls and reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the service providers' accounting and financial controls, including: (i) any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting that are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Fidelity funds' ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data; (ii) any change in the fund's internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the fund's internal control over financial reporting; and (iii) any fraud, whether material or not, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Fidelity funds' or service providers' internal controls over financial reporting. The committee reviews at least annually a report from each outside auditor describing any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality control, peer review, or Public Company Accounting Oversight Board examination of the auditing firm and any material issues raised by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities of the auditing firm and in each case any steps taken to deal with such issues. The committee will oversee and receive reports on the Fidelity funds' financial reporting process, will discuss with FMR, the Fidelity funds' Treasurer, outside auditors and, if appropriate, internal audit personnel of FMR Corp. their qualitative judgments about the appropriateness and acceptability of accounting principles and financial disclosure practices used or proposed for adoption by the Fidelity funds, and will review with FMR, the Fidelity funds' Treasurer, outside auditor, and internal auditor personnel of FMR Corp. (to the extent relevant) the results of audits of the Fidelity funds' financial statements. The committee will review periodically the Fidelity funds' major internal controls exposures and the steps that have been taken to monitor and control such exposures. The committee also plays an oversight role in respect of each Fidelity fund's compliance with its name test and investment restrictions, the code of ethics relating to personal securities transactions, the code of ethics applicable to certain senior officers of the Fidelity funds, and anti-money laundering requirements. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the committee held 10 meetings. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, the committee held 31 meetings.</R>

The Governance and Nominating Committee is composed of Messrs. Mann (Chair), Cox, and Gates, each of whom is not an "interested person" (as defined in the 1940 Act). The committee has two charters: one addressing fund governance and Board administrative matters and one addressing the nomination for the appointment or election of non-interested Trustees. The committee meets as called by the Chair. The committee also recommends the establishment of committees (including ad hoc and standing committees). A current copy of the Governance and Nominating Committee Charter With Respect to Nominations of Independent Trustees is available on Fidelity's website (www.fidelity.com) and is attached as Exhibit I to this proxy statement. The committee is also responsible for other fund governance and board administration matters. With respect to fund governance and board administration matters, the committee periodically reviews procedures and policies of the Board of Trustees and its committees (including committee charters) and periodically reviews compensation of non-interested Trustees. It acts as the administrative committee under the retirement plan for non-interested Trustees who retired prior to December 30, 1996 and under the fee deferral plan for non-interested Trustees. It reviews the performance of legal counsel employed by the Fidelity funds and the non-interested Trustees. On behalf of the non-interested Trustees, the committee will make such findings and determinations as to the independence of counsel for the non-interested Trustees as may be necessary or appropriate under applicable regulations or otherwise. The committee is also responsible for Board administrative matters applicable to non-interested Trustees, such as expense reimbursement policies and compensation for attendance at meetings, conferences and other events. The committee monitors compliance with, acts as the administrator of, and makes determinations in respect of, the provisions of the code of ethics and any supplemental policies regarding personal securities transactions applicable to the non-interested Trustees. The committee monitors regulatory and other developments to determine whether to recommend modifications to the committee's responsibilities or other Trustee policies and procedures in light of rule changes, reports concerning "best practices" in corporate governance and other developments in mutual fund governance. The committee meets with non-interested Trustees at least once a year to discuss the Statement of Policies and other matters relating to fund governance. The committee also oversees the annual self-evaluation of the non-interested Trustees. The committee makes nominations for the election or appointment of non-interested Trustees and non-management Members of any Advisory Board, and for membership on committees. The committee will have sole authority to retain and terminate any search firm used to identify non-interested Trustee candidates, including sole authority to approve such firm's fees and other retention terms. The committee will consider nominees to the Board of Trustees recommended by shareholders based upon the criteria applied to candidates presented to the committee by a search firm or other source. Recommendations, along with appropriate background material concerning the candidate that demonstrates his or her ability to serve as a non-interested Trustee of the Fidelity funds, should be submitted to the Chair of the committee at the address maintained for communications with non-interested Trustees. If the committee retains a search firm, the Chair will forward all such submissions to the search firm for evaluation. With respect to the criteria for selecting non-interested Trustees, it is expected that all candidates will possess the following minimum qualifications: (i) unquestioned personal integrity; (ii) not an "interested person" of FMR or its affiliates within the meaning of the 1940 Act; (iii) does not have a material relationship (e.g., commercial, banking, consulting, legal, or accounting) that could create an appearance of lack of independence in respect of FMR and its affiliates; (iv) has the disposition to act independently in respect of FMR and its affiliates and others in order to protect the interests of the funds and all shareholders; (v) ability to attend 11 meetings per year; (vi) demonstrates sound business judgment gained through broad experience in significant positions where the candidate has dealt with management, technical, financial, or regulatory issues; (vii) sufficient financial or accounting knowledge to add value in the complex financial environment of the Fidelity funds; (viii) experience on corporate or other institutional oversight bodies having similar responsibilities, but which board memberships or other relationships could not result in business or regulatory conflicts with the funds; and (ix) capacity for the hard work and attention to detail that is required to be an effective non-interested Trustee in light of the Fidelity funds' complex regulatory, operational, and marketing setting. The Governance and Nominating Committee may determine that a candidate who does not have the type of previous experience or knowledge referred to above should nevertheless be considered as a nominee if the Governance and Nominating Committee finds that the candidate has additional qualifications such that his or her qualifications, taken as a whole, demonstrate the same level of fitness to serve as a non-interested Trustee. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the committee held 10 meetings. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2004, the committee held 12 meetings.

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

The trust's Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firms relating to the operations or financial reporting of Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund, Fidelity Advisor Government Investment Fund, Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund, Fidelity Advisor High Income Advantage Fund, Fidelity Advisor Intermediate Bond Fund, Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap II Fund, Fidelity Advisor Mortgage Securities Fund, Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund, Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund, Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund, and Fidelity Advisor Value Fund. Prior to the commencement of any audit or non-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.

<R>The trust's Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures to, among other purposes, provide a framework for the Committee's consideration of non-audit services by the audit firms that audit the Fidelity funds. The policies and procedures require that any non-audit service provided by a fund audit firm to a Fidelity fund and any non-audit service provided by a fund auditor to FMR and entities controlling, controlled by, or under common control with FMR (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) that provide ongoing services to the funds ("Fund Service Providers") that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund (Covered Service) are subject to approval by the Audit Committee before such service is provided. Non-audit services provided by a fund audit firm for a Fund Service Provider that do not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund (Non-Covered Service) but that are expected to exceed $50,000 are also subject to pre-approval by the Audit Committee.</R>

All Covered Services, as well as Non-Covered Services that are expected to exceed $50,000, must be approved in advance of provision of the service either: (i) by formal resolution of the Audit Committee, or (ii) by oral or written approval of the service by the Chair of the Audit Committee (or if the Chair is unavailable, such other member of the Audit Committee as may be designated by the Chair to act in the Chair's absence). The approval contemplated by (ii) above is permitted where the Treasurer determines that action on such an engagement is necessary before the next meeting of the Audit Committee. Neither pre-approval nor advance notice of Non-Covered Service engagements for which fees are not expected to exceed $50,000 is required; such engagements are to be reported to the Audit Committee monthly.

The trust's Audit Committee has considered Non-Covered Services that were not pre-approved that were provided by PwC and Deloitte Entities to Fund Service Providers to be compatible with maintaining the independence of PwC and Deloitte Entities in their audit of the funds, taking into account representations from PwC and Deloitte Entities, in accordance with ISB No.1, regarding their independence from the funds and their related entities.

Audit Fees. For each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 for Fidelity Advisor Mid Cap II Fund and Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund, and for each of the fiscal years ended October 31, 2004 and October 31, 2003 for Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund, Fidelity Advisor Government Investment Fund, Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund, Fidelity Advisor High Income Advantage Fund, Fidelity Advisor Intermediate Bond Fund, Fidelity Advisor Mortgage Securities Fund, Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund, Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund, and Fidelity Advisor Value Fund, the aggregate Audit Fees billed by PwC or Deloitte Entities for professional services rendered for the audits of the financial statements, or services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years, for each fund and for all funds in the Fidelity Group of Funds are shown in the table below.

EXHIBIT 1

GOVERNANCE AND NOMINATING COMMITTEE CHARTER
WITH RESPECT TO NOMINATIONS OF INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES

This charter relates to the responsibilities of the Governance and Nominating Committee in connection with the nomination of Independent Trustees.

The Governance and Nominating Committee will consist solely of Independent Trustees. The Chair of the Independent Trustees will be the Chair of the Committee. If a Vice Chair of the Independent Trustees has been designated, such Vice Chair will normally serve on the Committee. The Committee will meet as called by the Chair. A quorum will include at least two Independent Trustees.

The Committee will make nominations for the appointment or election of Independent Trustees in accordance with the Independent Trustee's Statement of Policy on Criteria for Selecting Independent Trustees ("Statement of Policy") (attached as Appendix A). The selection of Independent Trustees will be committed solely to the discretion of the Independent Trustees; persons so selected will be "disinterested" in terms of both the letter and spirit of the Investment Company Act. The Committee will also make nominations for the appointment of any non-management member of any Advisory Board.

The Committee will periodically review the Statement of Policy, which may from time to time be revised by vote of a majority of Independent Trustees upon the recommendation of the Governance and Nominating Committee.

The Committee will have sole authority to retain and terminate any search firm used to identify Independent Trustee candidates, including sole authority to approve such firm's fees and other retention terms.

The Committee will consider Independent Trustee candidates recommended by Fund shareholders. Any such candidates will be considered based upon the criteria applied to candidates presented to the Committee by a search firm or other sources, as set forth in the Statement of Policy. The names of such candidates should be submitted to the Chairman of the Committee in writing at the address maintained for communications with Independent Trustees. The submission should be accompanied by appropriate background material concerning the candidate that demonstrates his or her ability to serve as an Independent Trustee of the Fidelity Funds. If the Committee retains a search firm, the Chairman will forward all such submissions to the search firm for evaluation.

APPENDIX A

December 2003

STATEMENT OF POLICY ON CRITERIA
FOR SELECTING INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES

The Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Fidelity Funds has adopted this Statement of Policy to memorialize its views as to the appropriate criteria for selecting Independent Trustees of the Funds. This Statement has been prepared in connection with filling vacancies among the Independent Trustees that are expected to arise through the end of 2004.

The Governance and Nominating Committee expects that all candidates will have the following characteristics:

  • Unquestioned personal integrity is a given.
  • The candidate may not be an "interested person" of FMR or its affiliates within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940.
  • The candidate should have no material relationship that could create an appearance of lack of independence in respect of FMR and its affiliates. Material relationships can include commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and familial relationships (among others).
  • The candidate needs the disposition to act independently in fact in respect of FMR and its affiliates and others in order to protect the interests of the Funds and all shareholders. It is expected that Independent Trustees will play an active and, if necessary, an adversarial role in pursuing the best interests of the Funds and shareholders.
  • The candidate needs to be able to attend 11 meetings per year. The effect of this requirement is to limit the number of other boards on which a candidate can participate and other commitments.
  • The candidate needs to have demonstrated sound business judgment gained through broad experience in significant positions where the candidate has dealt with management, technical, financial or regulatory issues.
  • The candidate should have sufficient financial or accounting knowledge to add value in the complex financial environment of the Fidelity Funds.
  • Candidates should have experience on corporate or other institutional oversight bodies having similar responsibilities. This helps assure that they have other exposure to current governance issues and business practices. Candidates should not, however, have board memberships or other relationships that could result in business or regulatory conflicts with the Fidelity Mutual Funds.
  • The candidate needs the capacity for the hard work and attention to detail that is required to be an effective Independent Trustee in light of the Fidelity Funds' complex regulatory, operational and marketing setting.

The Governance and Nominating Committee may determine that a candidate who does not have the type of previous experience or knowledge referred to above should nevertheless be considered as a nominee if the Governance and Nominating Committee finds that the candidate has additional qualifications such that his or her qualifications, taken as a whole, demonstrate the same level of fitness to serve as an Independent Trustee.

The following characteristics are desirable, but not mandatory:

  • The candidate should have the ability to serve seven or more years before reaching mandatory retirement age.
  • The candidate should have diversity of interests evidenced by participation in community, charitable or other similar activities.

The following are desirable characteristics of the Independent Trustees as a group:

  • The Independent Trustees will generally be drawn from the ranks of respected and accomplished senior business leaders.
  • The Independent Trustees will strive to achieve diversity in terms of gender, race and geographic location.
  • The Independent Trustees as a whole should reflect a diversity of business experience. At least one Independent Trustee will be a "audit committee financial expert," as such term is defined by the SEC. The Governance and Nominating Committee will strive to achieve a balance of experience of Independent Trustees in respect of industries, management roles and other experience. For each candidate, the Committee will evaluate specific experience in light of the makeup of the current board.

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

* Fidelity Floating Rate High Income Fund and Fidelity Mortgage Securities Fund are classes of Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund and Fidelity Advisor Mortgage Securities Fund.

Important information to help you understand and vote on the proposals

Please read the full text of the proxy statement. Below is a brief overview of the proposals to be voted upon. Your vote is important. We appreciate you placing your trust in Fidelity and look forward to helping you achieve your financial goals.

What proposals am I being asked to vote on?

You may be asked to vote on the following proposals:

1. To amend the Declaration of Trust to allow the Board of Trustees, if permitted by applicable law, to authorize fund mergers without shareholder approval.

2. To elect a Board of Trustees.

3. To modify the fundamental investment objective of Fidelity Advisor Intermediate Bond Fund.

4. To modify the fundamental investment objective of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund.

1. To amend the Declaration of Trust to allow the Board of Trustees, if permitted by applicable law, to authorize fund mergers without shareholder approval.

Why are you making this change?

The Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act) prohibits or limits certain transactions between affiliated funds (affiliated funds are defined as funds in a fund complex that are usually under common control of an investment adviser or other person when the adviser or other person exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of the funds). On July 26, 2002, the SEC amended Rule 17a-8 under the 1940 Act to permit mergers of affiliated funds without shareholder approval in certain cases, while still requiring shareholder approval in other cases. For example, Rule 17a-8 now permits affiliated funds to merge without shareholder approval if the advisory contracts and fundamental policies of the funds are not materially different (fundamental policies are those that can only be changed by shareholder vote). In all cases, the Board of Trustees must first consider that the action is in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders, and that the action will not dilute the shareholders' interests.

As of the record date for this meeting, the Trustees have no current plans to merge existing funds without shareholder vote. If shareholders approve the proposed change to the Declaration of Trust, the Board of Trustees may approve such a merger transaction in the future, but again, only if they find that the transaction is in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders and that the transaction will not dilute the shareholders' interests.

How will this change benefit me as a shareholder?

The amendment will give the Trustees increased flexibility, which may allow them to react more quickly to changes in competitive and regulatory conditions. This may allow the funds to operate in a more efficient and economical manner since each time a fund requires a shareholder vote, it is an expense to the fund and ultimately to you as a shareholder.

Under what circumstances would the Board of Trustees need to get shareholder approval?

The Board of Trustees would still need to get shareholder approval if the merger, consolidation or asset sale was not permitted by the 1940 Act and Massachusetts law. For example, Rule 17a-8 still requires shareholder approval of a merger of affiliated funds if they have materially different advisory contracts or fundamental policies. It also requires shareholder approval if, post-merger, the shareholder-elected disinterested trustees of the acquired fund would not comprise a majority of the disinterested trustees of the surviving fund.

2. To elect a Board of Trustees.

What role does the Board play? The Trustees serve as the fund shareholders' representatives. Members of the Board are fiduciaries and have an obligation to serve the best interests of shareholders, including approving policy changes. In addition, the Trustees review fund performance, oversee fund activities, and review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund.

What is the affiliation of the Board and Fidelity? The Board consists of 14 individuals. The purpose of the Board is to ensure that the shareholders' best interests are protected in the operation of a mutual fund. There are four "interested" trustees and ten "non-interested" trustees. Trustees are determined to be "interested" by virtue of, among other things, their affiliation with the funds, trust, or various other entities under common control with Fidelity Management & Research Co. (FMR). Interested Trustees are compensated by FMR. Non-interested Trustees have no affiliation with FMR and are compensated by each individual fund.

Are Board members paid?

Each non-interested Trustee receives a fee for his or her service on the Board. 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. You can find the compensation table, which details these fees, in the proxy statement.

Where is the compensation deferred to?

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 non-interested Trustees under the Plan will directly be linked to the performance of the Referenced Funds. This aligns the interest of the Trustees with the interests of the shareholders at-large.

3. To modify the fundamental investment objective of Fidelity Advisor Intermediate Bond Fund.

Why are you modifying the fundamental investment objective of Fidelity Advisor Intermediate Bond Fund?

The purpose of this proposal is to align the fundamental investment objectives of the Advisor fund with its retail counterpart, so that the investment objectives of both funds, which do not differ materially, are stated in the same words.

Will the proposed change affect the way the fund is managed? The proposed change will have no material effect on the way the fund is managed.

4. To modify the fundamental investment objective of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund.

Why are you modifying the fundamental investment objective of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund?

The purpose of this proposal is to align the fundamental investment objectives of the Advisor fund with its retail counterpart, so that the investment objectives of both funds, which do not differ materially, are stated in the same words.

Will the proposed change affect the way the fund is managed?

The proposed change will have no material effect on the way the fund is managed.

Has the funds' Board of Trustees approved each proposal?

Yes. The Board of Trustees has unanimously approved all of the proposals and recommends that you vote to approve them.

How many votes am I entitled to cast?

As a shareholder, you are entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value you own of each of the funds on the record date. The record date is December 20, 2004.

How do I vote my shares?

You can vote your shares by completing and signing the enclosed proxy card(s) and mailing it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. You may also vote by touch-tone telephone by calling the toll-free number printed on your proxy card(s) and following the recorded instructions. In addition, you may also vote through the internet by visiting www.proxyweb.com and following the on-line instructions. If you need any assistance, or have any questions regarding the proposals or how to vote your shares, please call Fidelity at 1-877-208-0098 (for all funds except Fidelity Floating Rate High Income Fund and Fidelity Mortgage Securities Fund) and 1-800-544-3198 (for Fidelity Floating Rate High Income Fund and Fidelity Mortgage Securities Fund).

How do I sign the proxy card?

Individual Accounts: Shareholders should sign exactly as their names appear on the account registration shown on the card.

Joint Accounts: Either owner may sign, but the name of the person signing should conform exactly to a name shown in the registration.

All Other Accounts: The person signing must indicate his or her capacity. For example, a trustee for a trust or other entity should sign, "Ann B. Collins, Trustee."
