Proxy Information

This proxy material concerns the:
T. Rowe Price Family of Funds

Dear Shareholder:

We cordially invite you to attend an annual shareholder meeting of the T. Rowe Price Funds on Wednesday, April 19, 2006. There are several items on the agenda. We ask you to read the enclosed information carefully and to submit your vote.

The following matters will be considered and acted upon:

All Funds. The election of your directors/trustees to serve on the Board of the Fund until the next annual meeting, if any, or until their successors are elected and qualified (Proposal 1).

GNMA Fund. Changing the investment objective of the Fund (Proposal 2).

High Yield, International Bond, New Income, and Short-Term Bond Funds and their Advisor and/or R classes. Simplifying each Fund`s industry concentration fundamental policy (Proposal 3).

Equity Index 500, Extended Equity Market Index, and Total Equity Market Index Funds and the Equity Index Portfolio. Adopting a new industry concentration fundamental policy (Proposal 4).

Transaction of other business as may properly come before the meeting.

Several directors/trustees have retired over the past several years, and it is necessary to replace them. The current Board comprises at least 75% independent directors and that will continue to be the case if all proposed nominees are elected. All of the current directors standing for election serve on the Boards of multiple T. Rowe Price funds.

Since the director proposal is common to all funds, we have combined our discussion into this single proxy statement — which helps to reduce fund expenses. If you own other Price funds — as do most of our investors — you will receive this combined proxy for all of the other Price funds that you own. Please note that we are required to provide you with one proxy card for each account that you own.

We realize that most of our shareholders will not be able to attend the meeting and vote their shares in person. However, we do need your vote.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — Election of Directors/Trustees

ALL FUNDS

Why are directors/trustees being elected?

Under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), a certain percentage of each Board must be elected by shareholders. Due to the retirement of several directors/trustees over the past years, it has become necessary for the funds to hold a shareholder meeting in order to replace these retired directors/trustees. All of the present Boards are composed of at least 75% independent directors and that will continue to be the case if the proposed nominees are elected.

Importantly, all of the independent directors/trustees standing for election currently serve on the Boards of multiple funds. If the entire slate is approved, there will be seven ind ependent directors/trustees and two interested directors/trustees on each fund Board.

<R>
</R>

<R>
PAGE 7
</R>

Another important benefit of these elections is that the same independent directors/trustees will serve on the Boards of all of the Price funds. This will expose the directors/trustees to a wider range of business issues and economic trends, allow the directors`/trustees` to better share their knowledge, background, and experience, and permit the Boards to operate more efficiently.

Who are the nominees for directors/trustees?

The Boards have proposed the slate of persons listed in Table 1 for election as director or trustee, each to hold office until the next annual meeting (if any), retirement, or resignation, or until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified.

A shareholder using the enclosed proxy card can vote for all or any of the nominees or withhold his or her vote from all or any of such nominees. If the proxy card is properly executed but unmarked, it will be voted for all of the nominees. Each of the nominees has agreed to serve as a director or trustee if elected; however, should any nominee become unable or unwilling to accept nomination or election, the persons named in the proxy will exercise their voting power in favor of such other person or persons as the Boards of the funds may recommend. There are no family relationships among these nominees.

Independent Directors/Trustees. Ms. Horn and Messrs. Deering, Dick, Fagin, and Schreiber currently serve as independent directors/trustees to all of the Price funds, as indicated in Table 3. Messrs. Casey and Theo Rodgers currently serve as independent directors/trustees to a subset of funds, as set forth in Table 3. Shareholders are being asked to elect all of the independent directors/trus tees to the Boards of all the Price funds.

Dr. F. Pierce Linaweaver, an independent director of the Price funds since 1979, has retired from the Boards and will not be standing for reelection.

Interested Directors/Trustees. Interested directors/trustees are considered as such because of relationships with T. Rowe Price and/or Price International as described in Table 2. They are also sharehold ers of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. Ms. Miller and Messrs. Kennedy, Laporte, and Riepe currently serve as interested directors/trustees to the Price funds/trusts as indicated in Table 3. Shareholders are being asked to elect Ms. Miller and Mr. Laporte to each of the Boards of the Price funds on which they currently serve.

Mr. James A.C. Kennedy, an interested director of the equity Price funds since 1992, will not be standing for reelection.

As part of a long-planned management transition, Mr. Riepe retired from T. Rowe Price at the end of 2005 and is not standing for reelection to the mutual fund boards when his current term expires in April 2006. Mr. Bernard has worked closely with Mr. Riepe since joining T. Rowe Price in 1988 and has assumed substantially all of Mr. Riepe`s responsibilities.

<R>
PAGE 8
</R>

Messrs. Bernard and Brian Rogers do not currently serve as interested directors/trustees to any of the Price funds. Shareholders are being asked to elect Mr. Bernard to the Boards of all the Price funds.

Shareholders are being asked to elect Mr. Brian Rogers to the Boards of the Balanced, Blue Chip Growth, Capital Appreciation, Developing Technologies, Diversified Mid-Cap Growth, Dividend Growth, Equity Income, Financial Services, Global Technology, Growth & Inco me, Growth Stock, Institutional Equity, Institutional International, International, International Index, Media & Telecommunications, Mid-Cap Growth, Mid-Cap Value, New Era, Personal Strategy, Real Estate, Retirement, Spectrum, Tax-Efficient, and Value Funds, the Index Trust, and the International Series.

Shareholders are being asked to elect the directors/trustees of their respective fund(s) only.

Tables 1 and 2 provide biographical information on each no minated director/trustee, their ownership, if any, in the funds on which they currently serve (or to which they are being nominated) as directors/trustees, and their total ownership in all the Price funds.

Do the nominees have a stake in the funds?

The directors/trustees of the funds believe it is important to have an investment in the Price funds. The nominees allocate their investments among the Price funds based on their own investment objectives. Tables 1 and 2 list each nominee`s investment in the individual funds, if any, as well as his/her total investment in all of the Price funds.

What are the primary responsibilities of each fund`s Board members?

They are responsible for the general oversight of each fund`s business and for assuring that each fund is managed in the best in terests of its shareholders. The directors/trustees periodically review the performance, investment program, compliance matters, advisory fees and expenses, service providers, and business and regulatory matters affecting the funds based on reports provided by their respective investment advisers, transfer agents, custodians, auditors, and legal counsel.

How often does each fund`s Board meet?

The Boards of Directors /Trustees of the Price funds held five meetings during calendar year 2005. Each director/trustee attended 75% or more of the meetings of the Price funds held in 2005. The Price funds do not normally hold annual meetings. If they do, the policy is that all directors/trustees should attend, subject to availability. Each Board currently has three committees, described in the following paragraphs.

The Committee of Independent Directors/Trustees, which consists of all of the independent directors/trustees of the funds, is responsible for, among other things, selecting candidates for election as independent directors or trustees to fill vacancies on each fund`s Board. Effective January 1, 2006, Anthony W. Deering became chairman of the committee and receives a fee of $1,000 for each committee meeting attended. The committee will consider written recommendations from shareholders for possible nominees. Shareholders should submit their recommendations to the secretary of the funds. The committee held four formal meetings in 2005. Al l members of the committee participated in the meetings.

The Joint Audit Committee consists of only independent directors/trustees. The members of the committee are Donald W. Dick, Jr., Karen N. Horn, and Theo C. Rodgers. Mr. Dick as chairman of the committee receives an annual retainer of $15,000 per year and Ms. Horn and Mr. Theo Rodgers receive an annual retainer of $7,500 per year. These directors/trustees also receive a fee of $1,000 for each committee meeting attend ed. The Audit Committee holds two regular meetings each year, at which time it meets with the independent registered public accounting firm of the Price funds to review: (1) the services provided; (2) the findings of the most recent audits; (3) management`s response to the findings of the most recent audits; (4) the scope of the audits to be performed; (5) the accountants` fees; and (6) any accounting, tax, compliance, or other questions relating to

<R>
</R>

<R>
PAGE 17
</R>

particular areas of the Price funds` operations or the operations of parties dealing with the Price funds, as circumstances indicate. Each fund`s Board has designated Donald W. Dick, an independent director/trustee, as the Audit Committee financial expert. The Audit Committee for the funds met twice in 2005. All members of the committee participated in the meetings.

The Executive Committee, which consists of all of the interested directors/trustees, is authorized by its respective Board to exercise all powers of the Boards of the funds to manage the funds in the intervals between meetings of the Boards, except the powers prohibited by statute from being delegated.The Executive Committees of the Short-Term Bond Fund and Spectrum Fund, on behalf of the Spectrum < /font>Income Fund, met once in 2005. All members of each committee participated in the meeting.

If a shareholder wishes to send a communication to the Board, or to a specified director/trustee, the communication should be submitted in writing to Patricia B. Lippert, Secretary of the Funds, T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., 100 East Pratt Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21202, who will forward such communication to the directors/trustees.

What are the directors/trustees paid for their services to the funds?

Ms. Miller and Messrs. Bernard, Laporte, and Brian Rogers are employed by, and thus considered "interested persons" of, T. Rowe Price or International. Therefore, they are not entitled to compensation or benefits for their service as directors of the funds.

Table 4 provides the independent directors`/trustees` accrued compensation for the most recently completed fiscal year of each fund and their total compensation for the calendar year 2005. The fees are allocated to each fund under a formula which includes a base fee and a fee based on the net assets of each fund relative to the other funds. Effective July 1, 2005, the annual compensation for the directors/trustees was increased for 2005 to $150,000 and for 2006 to $190,000 per year. At the same time, the annual compensation for the lead independent director/trustee was increased for 2005 to $215,000 and for 2006 to $290,000 per year. The Price fund group included 113 funds at December 31, 2005. The independent directors of the funds do not receive any pension or retirement benefits from the funds or T. Rowe Price.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 — Amend Investment Objective

GNMA FUND

<R>
The fund`s current objective is to seek "high current income consistent with maximum credit protection and moderate price fluctuation by investing exclusively in securities backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and instruments linked to these securities."
</R>

<R>
The Board proposes that the objective be changed as follows: "the fund`s objective is to seek high current income consistent with high overall credit quality and moderate price fluctuation by investing at least 80% of its total assets in GNMA securities backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government."
</R>

<R>
The new objective would differ from the current objective in two significant respects. First, the new objective would require that 80% of fund total assets be invested in GNMA securities backed by the full
</R>

<R>
</R>

<R>
PAGE 25
</R>

<R>
faith and credit of the U.S. government. The current objective requires that 100% of the fund`s assets be invested in securities backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, but not necessarily GNMA securities.
</R>

<R>
Secondly, under the proposed new objective up to 20% of the fund`s total assets could be invested in securities not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The other 20% of the fund`s securities could be invested in a wide variety of government and nongovernment securities and investments including derivatives. The fund`s Board of Trustees has indicated that it will require the fund`s non-GNMA fixed-income securities to have a credit rating of at least AA or the equivalent as determined by a national rating organization or, if unrated, deemed to be of comparable quality by T. Rowe Price. While it has no current intention to do so, the Board could authorize the fund to invest in lower quality securities at some time in the future. Under the current objective, the fund may not invest in any securities not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.
</R>

<R>
Securities backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government are considered to have no credit risk. While the non-GNMA fixed-income securities that the fund would be eligible to invest in must be rated at least AA (or the equivalent), they will have some credit risk. Credit risk is the risk that an issuer will have its credit ratings downgraded or will default (fail to make scheduled interest or principal payments), potentially reducing the fund`s income level and share price. By conducting thorough credit research of its non-GNMA securities, T. Rowe Price will seek to reduce this risk.
</R>

<R>
The fund can currently invest in derivatives such as futures and certain types of stripped-mortgage securities. If the proposal is adopted, the fund`s derivative investment could expand to include other types of derivatives including, but not limited to, swaps and structured notes.
</R>

<R>
Derivatives will be used if the expected risks and rewards are consistent with fund objectives, policies, and overall risk profile. Generally, the fund would use these additional derivatives where they would help accomplish the following: hedge against a decline in principal value, increase yield, invest in eligible asset classes with greater efficiency and lower cost than is possible through direct investment, or adjust portfolio duration.
</R>

<R>
The use of derivatives involves risks including that they may not always be successful hedges; using them could lower fund total return, their prices can be highly volatile, the potential loss from the use of derivatives can exceed a fund`s initial investment in such instruments, and the other party to the derivative instrument could default on its obligations.
</R>

<R>
The Board believes the proposed change to the fund`s objective, including the increase in the fund`s credit risk, is in the interests of the fund`s shareholders. The additional flexibility will provide the fund with more options in terms of incremental yield, diversification, and the ability to manage the fund in response to interest ra te changes. With these tools the Board believes the fund will be able to execute its investment strategies more precisely. To conform the fund`s proposed
</R>

<R>
PAGE 26
</R>

<R>
new objective to this greater investment flexibility, the new objective would require the fund to seek "high overall credit quality" rather than "maximum credit protection."
</R>

If the proposed amendment is approved by shareholders, it will become effective on or about June 1, 2006. Shareholders will receive notification of the changes to the fun d`s objectives and programs.

What vote is required to approve this amendment to the fund`s investment objective?

Proposal No. 2 requires the affirmative vote of the lesser of (1) 67% of the shares present at the meeting of the fund in person or by proxy or (2) a majority of the fund`s outstanding shares. The Board of Trustees of the fund recommends that shareholders vote FOR the proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 — Amend Industry Concentration Fundamental Policy

HIGH YIELD, INTERNATIONAL BOND, NEW INCOME< font style="font-size:11.0pt;" face="MetaPlusLF-MediumRoman" color="Black">, AND SHORT-TERM BOND FUNDS AND THEIR ADVISOR AND/OR R CLASSES

Each fund`s Board is recommending that its fundamental policy on industry concentration (set forth below) be simplified and changed.

Industry Concentration (High Yield Fund and its Advisor Class) Purchase the securities of any issuer if, as a result, more than 25% of the value of the fund`s total assets would be invested in the securities of issuers having their principal business activities in the same industry, provided, however, that the fund will normally concentrate 25% or more of its assets in securities of the banking industry when the fund`s position in issues maturing in one year or less equals 35% or more of the fund`s total assets.

Industry Concentration (International Bond Fund and its Advisor Class) Purchase the securities of any issuer if, as a result, more than 25% of the value of the fund`s total assets would be invested in the securities of issuers having their principal business acti vities in the same industry, provided, however, that the fund will normally concentrate 25% or more of its assets in securities of the banking industry when the fund`s position in issues maturing in one year or less equals 35% or more of the fund`s total assets.

Industry Concentration (New Income Fund and its Advisor and R Class) Purchase the securities of any issuer if, as a result, more than 25% of the value of the fund`s total assets would be invested in the securities of issuers having their principal business activities in the same industry, provided, however, that the fund will invest more than 25% of its total assets, but not more than 50%, in any one of the gas utility, gas transmission utility, electric utility, telephone utility, and petroleum industries under certain circumstances, and further provided that this

<R>
</R>

<R>
PAGE 27
</R>

limitation does not apply to securities of the banking industry including, but not limited to, certificates of deposit and banker`s acceptances.

Industry Concentration (Short-Term Bond Fund and its Advisor Class) Purchase the securities of any issuer if, as a result, more than 25% of the value of the fund`s total assets would be invested in the securities of issuers having their principal business activities in the same industry, provided, however, that the fund will normally invest more than 25% of its total assets in the securities of the banking industry including, but not limited to, bank certificates of deposit and banker`s acceptances when the fund`s position in issues maturing in one year or less equals 35% or more of the fund`s total assets; provided, further, that the fund will invest more than 25% of its total assets, but not more than 50%, in any one of the gas utility, gas transmission utility, electric utility, telephone utility, and petroleum industries under certain circumstances.

Since these policies were adopted, none of the funds has concentrated their investments in any industry and the circumstances which would have required such concentration have not occurred. As a result, the Boards have concluded that the existing policies are not necessary for the funds to fully implement their investment programs.

The Boards recommend that each fund`s new policy read as follows:

"The fund may not purchase the securities of any issuer if, as a result, more than 25% of the value of the fund`s total assets would be invested in the securities of issuers having their principal business activities in the same industry."

If the new policy is approved, each fund will not invest more than 25% of its total assets in securities of companies in the same industry. The funds have not concentrated their investments in single industries in the past and the new policy will not change that practice.

If the proposed amendment is approved by shareholders, it will become effective on or about May 1, 2006, or at such other time as the directors/trustees of the funds deem appropriate.

What vote is required to approve this amendment to each fund`s fundamental policy?

<R>
Proposal No. 3 requires the affirmative vote of the lesser of (1) 67% of the shares (including all classes) present at the meeting of each fund in person or by proxy or (2) a majority of each fund`s outstanding shares (including all classes). The Board of Directors of each fund recommends that shareholders vote FOR the proposal.
</R>

</R>

PROPOSAL NO. 4 — Adopt a New Industry Concentration Fundamental Policy

EQUITY INDEX 500 FUND, EXTENDED EQUITY MARKET INDEX FUND, TOTAL EQUITY MARKET INDEX FUND, AND EQUITY INDEX 500 PORTFOLIO

Each fund`s Board is recommending that its fundamental policy on industry concentration be changed to accommodate their operation as index funds. Currently the policies state that as a matter of fundamental policy, the funds may not:

"Purchase the securities of any issuer if, as a result, more tha n 25% of the value of the funds` total assets would be invested in the securities of issuers having their principal business activities in the same industry."

The Boards are recommending that the funds adopt the following policy relating to concentration:

"The fund may not purchase the securities of any issuer if, as a result, more than 25% of the value of the fund`s total assets would be invested in the securities of issuers having their principal business activities in the same industry, except that the fund will invest more than 25% of the value of its total assets in issuers having their principal business activities in the same industry to the extent necessary to replicate the index that the fund uses as its benchmark as set forth in its prospectus."

This policy will simply allow each of the index funds to concentrate in an industry if the index the fund seeks to replicate also concentrates in tha t industry. Although such a scenario is unlikely, the proposal will provide the funds with the necessary flexibility should an index become concentrated. In the absence of this change, if one of the indices these funds follow were to become concentrated, the funds would not be able to replicate the index.

<R>
If the proposed amendment is approved by shareholders, it will become effective on or about May 1, 2006, or at such other time as the directors/trustees of the funds deem appropriate.
</R>

What vote is required for each fund to adopt a new fundamental policy?

Proposal No. 4 requires the affirmative vote of the lesser of (1) 67% of the shares present at the meeting of each fund in person or by proxy or (2) a majority of each fund`s outstanding shares. The Board of Directors of each fund recommends that shareholders vote FOR the proposal.

FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT VOTING AND
THE SHAREHOLDER MEETING

What is the required quorum?

To hold a meeting for a corporation or trust, a majority of the corporation or trust`s shares entitled to be voted must have been received by proxy or be present at the meeting. In the event that a quorum is present but sufficient votes in favor of a proposal are not received by the meeting date, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments to permit further solicitation of proxies. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting to be adjourned. The persons named as proxies will vote in favor of such adjournment if they determine that additional solicitation is reasonable and in the interests of the corporation/trust`s shareholders.

How are the votes counted?

The individuals named as proxies (or their substitutes) on the enclosed proxy card (or cards, if you have multiple funds or accounts) will vote according to your direct ions if your proxy is received properly executed, or in accordance with your instructions given when voting by telephone or Internet. With respect to directors/trustees, you may direct the proxy holders to vote your shares on the proposal by checking the appropriate box "FOR ALL NOMINEES" or "FOR ALL EXCEPT," or instruct them not to vote those shares on the proposal by checking the "WITHHOLD AUTHORITY" box. With respect to proposals 2, 3, and 4, you may direct the proxy holders to vote FOR or AGAINST. Alternatively, you may simply sign, date, and return your proxy card(s) with no specific instructions as to the proposals. If you properly execute your proxy card and give no voting instructions with respect to the election of directors/trustees or any of the other proposals, your shares will be voted FOR ALL NOMINEES and for all of the ot her proposals.

<R>
Abstentions and "broker non-votes" (as defined below) are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present for purposes of convening the meeting. "Broker non-votes" are shares held by a broker or nominee for which an executed proxy is received by the fund but are not voted as to one or more proposals because instructions have not been received f rom the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote, and the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power. If a proposal must be approved by a plurality vote, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the result of the vote. If the proposal must be approved by a percentage of voting securities present at the meeting or a majority of the fund`s outstanding shares, abstentions and broker non-votes will be considered to be voting securities that are present and will have the effect of being counted as votes against the proposal.

<R>
For shares held in IRA accounts, the Custodian shall, without written direction from the investor, vote shares for which no voting instructions are timely received in the same proportion as shares for which voting instructions from other shareholders are timely received.
</R>

Shares of the Equity, Fixed Income, and International Series held by insurance company separate accounts for which the insurance company has not received timely voting instructions, as well as shares the insurance company owns, shall be voted in the same proportion as shares for which voting instructions from contractholders are timely received.

Shares of the Price funds held by the Spectrum and Retirement Funds will be voted in the same proportion as shares for which voting instructions f rom other shareholders are timely received.

Can additional matters be acted upon at the annual meeting?

The management of the funds knows of no other business that may come before the meeting. However, if any additional matters are properly presented at the meeting, it is intended that the persons named in the enclosed proxy, or their substitutes, will vote on such matters in accordance with their judgment.

How can proxies be recorded?

You may record your votes on the proxy card enclosed with this statement and mail it in the prepaid envelope provided to Management Information Servic es Corp., who the funds have retained to tabulate the votes. In addition, the funds (except the Equity, Fixed Income, and International Series) have arranged to have votes recorded through the Internet or by telephone. The telephone and Internet voting procedures are designed to authenticate shareholders` identities, to allow shareholders to authorize the voting of their shares in accordance with their instructions, and to confirm that their instructions have been properly recorded.

How can proxies be solicited, and who pays for the costs involved?

Directors/trustees, officers, or employees of the funds, T. Rowe Price or Price International may solicit proxies by mail, in person, or by telephone. In the event that votes are solicited by te lephone, shareholders would be called at the telephone number T. Rowe Price has in its records for their accounts, and would be asked for their Social Security number or other identifying information. The shareholders would then be given an opportunity to authorize proxies to vote their shares at the meeting in accordance with their instructions. To ensure that shareholders` instructions have been recorded correctly, confirmation of the instructions is also mailed. A special toll-free number will be available in case the information contained in the confirmation is incorrect.

To ensure that sufficient shares of common stock are represented at the meeting to permit approval of the proposals outlined in the proxy statement, the funds may retain the services of a proxy solicitor to assist

</R>

them in soliciting proxies for a fee plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. Securities brokers, custodians, fiduciaries, and other persons holding shares as nominees will be reimbursed, upon request, for their reasonable expenses in sending solicitation materials to the principals of the accounts.

<R>
All costs of the shareholder meetings and the proxy solicitation will be paid for by the funds, except for the Equity, Fixed Income, and International Series, and the Extended Equity Market Index, Institutional Emerging Markets Equity, Institutional Income, International Index, Summit, Summit Municipal, Total Equity Market Index, and U.S. Bond Index Funds. These funds pay a single fee to T. Rowe Price and, as a result, T. Rowe Price will bear these costs for these funds.
</R>

Can I change my vote after I mail my proxy?

Any proxy, including those given via the Internet or by telephone, may be revoked at any time before it is voted by filing a written notice of revocation with the funds, by delivering a properly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the meeting and voting in person.

Are the funds required to hold a nnual meetings?

Under Maryland and Massachusetts law, the funds are not required to hold annual meetings. The Board of Directors/Trustees of each fund has determined that the funds will take advantage of these Maryland and Massachusetts law provisions to avoid the significant expense associated with holding annual meetings, including legal, accounting, printing, and mailing fees incurred in preparing proxy materials. Accordingly, no annual meetings shall be held in any year in which a meeting is not otherwise required to be held by the 1940 Act unless the Boards determine otherwise. However, special meetings will be held in accordance with applicable law or when otherwise determined by each fund`s Board.

If a shareholder wishes to present a proposal to be included in a proxy statement for a subsequent shareholder meeting, the proposal must be submitted in writing and received by Patricia B. Lippert, Secretary of the Funds, T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., 100 East Pratt Street, Baltimore, MD 21202, within a reasonable time before the funds begin to print and mail their proxy materials.

INFORMATION ABOUT INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

The Audit Committee has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Price < /font>funds for their current fiscal years. Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers are expected to be present at the meeting and will be available to make a statement, if they desire to do so, and to respond to appropriate questions which shareholders may wish to address to them.

Table 8 sets forth the audit, audit-related, tax, and all other fees billed to the Price funds by PricewaterhouseCoopers in each of the last two fiscal years. Audit fees are billed for professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers for the audit of each Price fund`s annual

financial statements and for services normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings. Audit-related fees are billed to the Price funds for assurance and related services by PricewaterhouseCoopers that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit of each Price fund`s financial statements. The nature of service comprising these fees is the issuance of a report on internal controls. Tax fees are billed to the Price funds for services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. The nature of services comprising these fees includes the review of distribution calculations and the preparation of federal, state, and excise tax returns. All other fees are billed for all other services rendered to the Price funds by PricewaterhouseCoopers. The nature of the service comprising these fees is agreed-upon procedures in conjunction with service contract approvals by the Price funds` Board of Directors/Trustees.

The Audit Committee has considered whether the provisions of the services covered under "Other Fees" is compatible with maintaining the independence of PricewaterhouseCoopers.
