T. Rowe Price Funds

Supplement to prospectus.

The Boards of Directors of the T. Rowe Price Funds listed in the table below have authorized the following actions: (1) the imposition of a 2% redemption fee on shares of all T. Rowe Price international funds that currently do not impose a redemption fee; (2) a reduction in the redemption holding period for shares of T. Rowe Price index funds to 90 days from 180 days; (3) an increase in the International Equity Index Fund`s redemption fee to 2% from 1%; and (4) the imposition of a 1% redemption fee and a one-year holding period on shares of T. Rowe Price Small-Cap Value Fund—Advisor Class and T. Rowe Price High Yield Fund—Advisor Class. The Boards are taking these actions to deter short-term trading.

Set forth below are the T. Rowe Price funds affect ed by these actions. All redemption fees collected will be paid to the funds and will reduce proceeds that shareholders receive from the sale or exchange of shares subject to the redemption fees.

1 Redemption fee currently in place.

2 Holding period reduced to 90 days from 180 days.

3 Fee increased to 2% from 1%; holding period reduced to 90 days from 180 days.

Schedule

The new redemption fees and holding periods will be implemented in accordance with the following schedule. Share s that you currently hold or purchase prior to implementation of these new redemption fees and holding periods are not subject to the new fees; however, these shares are subject to preexisting terms for holding periods and early redemption as outlined in each fund`s prospectus.

Beginning June 1, 2004, shares purchased directly from T. Rowe Price and T. Rowe Price Brokerage Advantage will be subject to the new redemption fees.

Beginning June 1, 2004, new redemption fees will be imposed on shares purchased through financial intermediaries (e.g., banks, brokerages, clearing houses, etc.) and redeemed before the end of the required holding period. Intermediaries who wish to implement redemption fees earlier should contact T. Rowe Price. Intermediaries who cannot implement the new redemption fees by June 1, 2004, because of systems limitations and can provide verification to that effect to the satisfaction of T. Rowe Price may be permitted to delay, temporarily, the implementation of redemption fees. All intermediaries are expected to be able to implement the rede mption fees by December 31, 2004. Any person using an intermediary to purchase shares should check with the respective intermediary to determine whether or not purchases will be subject to the new redemption fees.

Exceptions

Shares purchased through reinvested distribu tions (dividends and capital gains), shares held in participant-directed retirement plans or accounts, such as 401(k), 403(b), 457, Keogh, profit sharing, SIMPLE IRA, SEP-IRA, and money purchase pension accounts, or shares redeemed through designated systematic withdrawal plans continue to be exempted from redemption fees. The fees apply to all other types of accounts including IRAs. The fees also may apply to shares in retirement plans held in broker omnibus accounts. In addition, shares redeemed through automatic and/or non-discretionary rebalancing programs may not be subject to redemption fees, subject to the prior written approval by designated persons at T. Rowe Price and provided that they reasonably can be assured that these transactions will not result in short-term ma rket timing or excessive trading in the mutual funds listed above. Finally, some transactions are not motivated by short-term market timing or do not qualify as "excessive" trading and, therefore, may be exempt from redemption fees, subject to prior written approval by designated persons at T. Rowe Price as described earlier.

Application of Redemption Fees

The "first-in, first-out" (FIFO) method is used to determine the holding period. Under this method, the date of redemption or exchange will be compared with the earliest purchase date of shares held in the account. A redemption fee will be charged on shares sold before the end of the required holding period.

In determining a holding period, the fund will use the anniversary date of a transaction. Thus, for a one-year period, shares purchased on February 1 will be subject to a redemption fee if they are redeemed on or prior to the following January 31. If shares are redeemed on or after February 1 of the following year, they will not be subject to a redemption fee.

The date of the supplement above is April 27, 2004.
