Commentary

Dear
Investor
Nearly
all
major
global
stock
and
bond
indexes
fell
sharply
in
2022,
as
investors
contended
with
persistently
high
inflation,
tightening
financial
conditions,
and
slowing
economic
and
corporate
earnings
growth.
Double-digit
losses
were
common
in
equity
markets
around
the
world,
and
bond
investors
also
faced
a
historically
tough
environment
amid
a
sharp
rise
in
interest
rates.
Value
shares
declined
but
outperformed
growth
stocks
by
a
considerable
margin
as
equity
investors
turned
risk
averse
and
as
rising
rates
put
downward
pressure
on
growth
stock
valuations.
Emerging
markets
stocks
generally
underperformed
shares
in
developed
markets.
Meanwhile,
the
U.S.
dollar
strengthened
versus
most
currencies
during
the
period,
which
weighed
on
returns
for
U.S.
investors
in
international
securities.
Within
the
S&P
500
Index,
energy
was
a
rare
bright
spot,
gaining
more
than
60%
as
oil
prices
jumped
in
response
to
Russia’s
invasion
of
Ukraine
and
concerns
over
commodity
supply
shortages.
Defensive
shares,
such
as
utilities,
consumer
staples,
and
health
care,
held
up
relatively
well
and
finished
the
year
with
roughly
flat
returns.
Conversely,
communication
services,
consumer
discretionary,
and
information
technology
shares
suffered
the
largest
declines.
Elevated
inflation
remained
a
leading
concern
for
investors
throughout
the
period,
although
there
were
signs
that
price
increases
were
moderating
by
year-end.
November’s
consumer
price
index
data
showed
headline
inflation
rising
7.1%
on
a
12-month
basis,
the
lowest
level
since
December
2021
but
still
well
above
the
Federal
Reserve’s
2%
long-term
target.
In
response
to
the
high
inflation
readings,
global
central
banks
tightened
monetary
policy,
and
investors
focused
on
communications
from
central
bank
officials
on
how
high
rates
would
have
to
go.
The
Fed,
which
at
the
end
of
2021
had
forecast
that
it
would
only
need
to
raise
interest
rates
0.75
percentage
point
in
all
of
2022,
raised
its
short-term
lending
benchmark
from
near
zero
in
March
to
a
target
range
of
4.25%
to
4.50%
by
December
and
indicated
that
additional
hikes
are
likely.
Bond
yields
increased
considerably
across
the
U.S.
Treasury
yield
curve
as
the
Fed
tightened
monetary
policy,
with
the
yield
on
the
benchmark
10-year
U.S.
Treasury
note
climbing
from
1.52%
at
the
start
of
the
period
to
3.88%
at
the
end
of
the
year.
Significant
inversions
in
the
yield
curve,
which
are
often
considered
a
warning
sign
of
a
coming
recession,
occurred
during
the
period
as
shorter-maturity
Treasuries
experienced
the
largest
yield
increases.
The
sharp
increase
in
yields
led
to
historically
weak
results
across
the
fixed
income
market,
with
the
Bloomberg
U.S.
Aggregate
Bond
Index
delivering
its
worst
year
on
record.
(Bond
prices
and
yields
move
in
opposite
directions.)
As
the
period
came
to
an
end,
the
economic
backdrop
appeared
mixed.
Although
manufacturing
gauges
have
drifted
toward
contraction
levels,
the
U.S.
jobs
market
remained
resilient,
and
corporate
and
household
balance
sheets
appeared
strong.
Meanwhile,
the
housing
market
has
weakened
amid
rising
mortgage
rates.
The
past
year
has
been
a
trying
time
for
investors
as
few
sectors
remained
untouched
by
the
broad
headwinds
that
markets
faced,
and
volatility
may
continue
in
the
near
term
as
central
banks
tighten
policy
amid
slowing
economic
growth.
However,
in
our
view,
there
continue
to
be
opportunities
for
selective
investors
focused
on
fundamentals.
Valuations
in
most
global
equity
markets
have
improved
markedly,
although
U.S.
equities
still
appear
relatively
expensive
by
historical
standards,
while
bond
yields
have
reached
some
of
the
most
attractive
levels
since
the
2008
global
financial
crisis.
We
believe
this
environment
makes
skilled
active
management
a
critical
tool
for
identifying
risks
and
opportunities,
and
our
investment
teams
will
continue
to
use
fundamental
research
to
identify
securities
that
can
add
value
to
your
portfolio
over
the
long
term.
Thank
you
for
your
continued

FUND
COMMENTARY
How
did
the
fund
perform
in
the
past 12
months?
The
Limited-Term
Bond
Portfolio
returned
-4.52%
in
the
12-month
period
ended
December
31,
2022,
underperforming
its
benchmark,
the
Bloomberg
1–3
Year
U.S.
Government/
Credit
Bond
Index,
as
well
as
its
Lipper
peer
group
average.
(Returns
for
the
II
Class
shares
will
vary,
reflecting
their
different
fee
structure.
Past
performance
cannot
guarantee
future
results
.)
What
factors
influenced
the
fund’s
performance?
Shorter-maturity
bond
markets
were
adversely
impacted
by
macro-
and
interest
rate-driven
volatility
during
the
reporting
period.
Early
in
the
year,
geopolitical
conflict,
hawkish
rhetoric
from
the
Federal
Reserve,
and
heavy
new
issuance
weighed
on
spread
sectors.
While
hopes
of
a
dovish
pivot
from
the
Fed
gave
risk
assets
some
reprieve
in
the
summer,
hawkish
rhetoric
and
elevated
inflation
quelled
these
hopes
until
late
in
the
period,
at
which
time
cooling
economic
data
and
comments
from
Fed
Chair
Jerome
Powell
renewed
expectations
for
smaller
rate
hikes.
Against
this
unstable
macroeconomic
backdrop,
all
market
segments
within
the
U.S.
investment-grade
fixed
income
market
posted
negative
returns.
Corporate
bonds
produced
the
weakest
total
returns,
with
one-
to
three-year
corporate
bond
prices
depreciating
and
credit
spreads
widening
amid
depleted
risk
sentiment
and
a
sharp
rise
in
front-end
U.S.
Treasury
yields.
(Credit
spreads
are
a
measure
of
the
additional
yield
offered
by
bonds
that
have
credit
risk
compared
with
U.S.
Treasuries
with
similar
maturities.)
While
Treasury
yields
rose
broadly
across
the
yield
curve,
yields
on
shorter-maturity
Treasury
notes
rose
most
prominently
as
investors
priced
in
a
higher-for-longer
interest
rate
regime.
The
yield
on
the
two-year
Treasury
note
began
the
year
at
0.73%
and
ended
at
4.41%.
Sector
allocation
was
the
predominant
detractor
from
the
portfolio's
relative
performance.
Out-of-benchmark
allocations
to
securitized
sectors—including
asset-backed
securities
(ABS),
commercial
mortgage-backed
securities
(CMBS),
and
residential
mortgage-backed
securities
(RMBS)—hindered
relative
results
amid
interest
rate
volatility
and
periods
of
heavy
new
issuance.
The
portfolio's
allocation
to
RMBS
was
a
prominent
detractor,
as
the
interest
rate-sensitive
sector
was
dragged
lower
by
concerns
about
the
ramifications
of
tighter
Fed
policy,
rising
rates,
and
declining
housing
affordability.
Conversely,
an
overweight
to
investment-grade
corporate
bonds
and
a
corresponding
underweight
to
U.S.
Treasuries
helped
relative
performance
as
limited
new
supply,
some
encouraging
corporate
earnings
reports,
and
more
constructive
risk
sentiment
fueled
a
late-period
rally
among
corporate
bonds.
Security
selection
within
investment-grade
corporate
bonds
was
also
beneficial.
Interest
rate
management
produced
relative
gains.
Modest
underweights
in
the
front
end
of
the
yield
curve
and
a
slight
overweight
in
the
intermediate
portion
aided
relative
results
as
the
yield
curve
flattened
and,
in
certain
portions
of
the
yield
curve,
inverted
during
the
reporting
period.
However,
the
portfolio's
average
duration
profile,
which
was
slightly
long
relative
to
the
benchmark,
negated
some
relative
gains
as
Treasury
yields
rose
broadly
across
the
yield
curve.
In
addition,
while
we
are
primarily
a
cash
bond
manager,
we
occasionally
employ
the
limited
use
of
derivatives
in
our
strategy
for
hedging
purposes.
Derivatives
may
include
futures
and
options,
as
well
as
credit
default
and
interest
rate
swaps.
During
the
reporting
period,
our
use
of
Treasury
futures
detracted
from
absolute
performance.
How
is
the
fund
positioned?
Relative
to
the
benchmark,
we
continue
to
underweight
Treasuries
while
aiming
to
add
yield
by
overweighting
non-Treasury
sectors
and
taking
out-of-benchmark
positions
in
higher-yielding
securitized
debt.
Within
short-term
bond
portfolios,
we
believe
yield
plays
a
greater
role
than
price
appreciation
in
generating
excess
returns
and
limiting
volatility.
Because
corporate
bonds
and
securitized
issues
typically
have
greater
yields
than
Treasuries,
we
believe
that
we
can
selectively
overweight
these
sectors
to
achieve
a
yield
advantage.
Corporate
debt
represented
just
under
50%
of
net
assets.
BBB
rated
bonds,
which
our
research
analysts
believe
are
often
mispriced
and
offer
attractive
relative
value,
remained
a
significant
holding.

The
portfolio's
risk
levels
increased
modestly
over
the
period,
partly
due
to
an
increase
in
our
allocation
to
investment-grade
corporate
bonds
as
valuations
became
more
attractive.
We
began
the
year
targeting
high-conviction
ideas
across
a
broad
portion
of
the
yield
curve
but
narrowed
our
focus
to
adding
shorter-maturity
credits
in
the
second
quarter
as
we
awaited
clarity
about
the
path
of
monetary
policy
and
the
economic
environment.
We
maintained
this
cautious
duration
posture
within
corporates
through
period-end
in
anticipation
of
spreads
moving
wider
as
the
Fed
continued
to
tighten
monetary
policy
despite
slowing
economic
growth.
Additionally,
amid
persistent
rate
volatility,
we
have
found
it
increasingly
challenging
to
have
high
conviction
in
increasing
risk
levels
further.
With
growing
odds
of
a
potential
recession
in
2023
and
our
view
that
there
could
be
a
period
of
credit
weakness,
we
built
up
liquidity
through
period-end.
We
continued
to
hold
out-of-benchmark
positions
in
ABS,
CMBS,
and
RMBS
to
provide
diversified
sources
of
what
we
believe
to
be
high-quality
yield.
However,
we
took
advantage
of
slightly
improved
liquidity
within
securitized
sectors
in
the
fourth
quarter
and
decreased
our
allocation
to
RMBS,
reflecting
our
view
that
fundamental
issues
may
weigh
on
the
sector
in
the
coming
year.
What
is
portfolio
management’s
outlook?
While
there
are
signs
that
inflationary
pressures
have
peaked,
the
outlook
remains
uncertain
amid
continued
monetary
policy
tightening,
mounting
downside
growth
risks,
and
elevated
volatility
in
risk
assets.
We
hold
the
view
that
the
path
of
monetary
tightening
will
be
more
important
to
focus
on
than
the
destination
as
the
Fed
continues
to
tighten
policy
despite
slowing
growth.
With
the
range
of
economic
outcomes
now
wider
due
to
the
speed
at
which
the
Fed
has
tightened
monetary
policy,
we
will
continue
to
monitor
the
distribution
of
risks
over
the
next
year.
As
inflation
and
other
economic
data
have
started
to
move
lower,
concerns
about
the
possibility
of
a
recession
have
continued.
In
our
view,
the
ultimate
state
of
the
economy
and
probability
of
a
recession
will
remain
the
primary
risk
for
credit
investors
this
year.
In
this
environment
of
heightened
volatility,
active
management
can
play
an
even
more
instrumental
role
in
achieving
investor
objectives.
Our
continued
goal
is
to
provide
high-quality,
durable
yield
and
income
appropriate
for
a
short-
term
bond
strategy
with
modest
credit
and
duration
risk.
Using
the
breadth
and
depth
of
our
global
research
platform,
we
will
look
to
selectively
add
to
high-conviction
positions
as
volatility
creates
attractive
entry
points.

Risks
of
Investing
in
Fixed
Income
Securities
The
value
of
the
fund’s
investments
may
decrease,
sometimes
rapidly
or
unexpectedly,
due
to
factors
affecting
an
issuer
held
by
the
fund,
particular
industries,
or
the
overall
securities
markets.
The
prices
of,
and
the
income
generated
by,
debt
instruments
held
by
the
fund
may
be
affected
by
changes
in
interest
rates.
The
fund
is
subject
to
prepayment
risks
because
the
principal
on
mortgage-backed
securities,
other
asset-
backed
securities,
or
any
debt
instrument
with
an
embedded
call
option
may
be
prepaid
at
any
time,
which
could
reduce
the
security’s
yield
and
market
value.
An
issuer
of
a
debt
instrument
could
suffer
an
adverse
change
in
financial
condition
that
results
in
a
payment
default
(failure
to
make
scheduled
interest
or
principal
payments),
rating
downgrade,
or
inability

EXPENSE
EXAMPLE
As
a
mutual
fund
shareholder,
you
may
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs,
such
as
redemption
fees
or
sales
loads,
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees,
distribution
and
service
(12b-1)
fees,
and
other
fund
expenses.
The
following
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
The
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
most
recent
six-month
period
and
held
for
the
entire
period.
Shares
of
the
fund
are
currently
offered
only
through
certain
insurance
companies
as
an
investment
medium
for
both
variable
annuity
contracts
and
variable
life
insurance
policies.
Please
note
that
the
fund
has
two
classes
of
shares:
the
original
share
class
and
II
Class.
II
Class
shares
are
sold
through
financial
intermediaries,
which
are
compensated
for
distribution,
shareholder
servicing,
and/or
certain
administrative
services
under
a
Board-approved
Rule
12b-1
plan.
Actual
Expenses
The
first
line
of
the
following
table
(Actual)
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
on
this
line,
together
with
your
account
balance,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
on
the
first
line
under
the
heading
“Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
Hypothetical
Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
information
on
the
second
line
of
the
table
(Hypothetical)
is
based
on
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
derived
from
the
fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
5%
per
year
rate
of
return
before
expenses
(not
the
fund’s
actual
return).
You
may
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
fund
with
other
funds
by
contrasting
this
5%
hypothetical
example
and
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
You
should
also
be
aware
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
highlight
only
your
ongoing
costs
and
do
not
reflect
any
transaction
costs,
such
as
redemption
fees
or
sales
loads.
Therefore,
the
second
line
of
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
To
the
extent
a
fund
charges
transaction
costs,
however,
the
total
cost
of
owning
that
fund
is
higher.

Total
returns
do
not
include
charges
imposed
by

If
these
had
been
included,

would
have
been
lower.
This
table
shows
how
the
portfolio
would
have
performed
each
year
if
its
actual
(or
cumulative)
returns
for
the
periods
shown
had
been
earned
at
a
constant
rate.
Average
annual
total
return
figures
include
changes
in
principal
value,
reinvested
dividends,
and
capital
gain
distributions.
When
assessing
performance,
investors
should
consider
both
short-
and
long-
term
returns.

SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES 
Basis
of
Preparation
 The fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946
(ASC
946).
The
accompanying
financial
statements
were
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(GAAP),
including,
but
not
limited
to,
ASC
946.
GAAP
requires
the
use
of
estimates
made
by
management.
Management
believes
that
estimates
and
valuations
are
appropriate;
however,
actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates,
and
the
valuations
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
may
differ
from
the
value
ultimately
realized
upon
sale
or
maturity.
Investment
Transactions,
Investment
Income,
and
Distributions
Investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
basis.
Income
and
expenses
are
recorded
on
the
accrual
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
are
reported
on
the
identified
cost
basis.
Premiums
and
discounts
on
debt
securities
are
amortized
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Paydown
gains
and
losses
are
recorded
as
an
adjustment
to
interest
income.
Inflation
adjustments
to
the
principal
amount
of
inflation-indexed
bonds
are
reflected
as
interest
income.
Income
tax-related
interest
and
penalties,
if
incurred,
are
recorded
as
income
tax
expense.
Dividends
received
from
mutual
fund
investments
are
reflected
as
dividend
income;
capital
gain
distributions
are
reflected
as
realized
gain/loss.
Dividend
income
and
capital
gain
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Non-cash
dividends,
if
any,
are
recorded
at
the
fair
market
value
of
the
asset
received.
Distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Income
distributions,
if
any, are
declared
by
each
class daily
and
paid
monthly.
A
capital
gain
distribution,
if
any, may
also
be
declared
and
paid
by
the
fund
annually.
Class
Accounting
 Investment
income
and
investment
management
and

are
allocated
to
the

based
upon
the
relative
daily

assets
of
each
class’s
settled
shares;
realized
and

are
allocated
based

Capital
Transactions
 Each
investor’s
interest
in
the
net
assets
of the
fund
is
represented
by
fund
shares. The
fund’s
net
asset
value
(NAV)
per
share
is
computed
at
the
close
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(NYSE),
normally
4
p.m.
ET,
each
day
the
NYSE
is
open
for
business.
However,
the
NAV
per
share
may
be
calculated
at
a
time
other
than
the
normal
close
of
the
NYSE
if
trading
on
the
NYSE
is
restricted,
if
the
NYSE
closes
earlier,
or
as
may
be
permitted
by
the
SEC.
Purchases
and
redemptions
of
fund
shares
are
transacted
at
the
next-computed
NAV
per
share,
after
receipt
of
the

order
by

VALUATION 
Fair
Value
  The
fund’s
financial
instruments
are
valued
at
the
close
of
the
NYSE
and
are
reported
at
fair
value,
which
GAAP
defines
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date. The fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(the
Board)
has
designated
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
as
the
fund’s
valuation
designee
(Valuation
Designee).
Subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board,
the
Valuation
Designee
performs
the
following
functions
in
performing
fair
value
determinations:
assesses
and
manages
valuation
risks;
establishes
and
applies
fair
value
methodologies;
tests
fair
value
methodologies;
and
evaluates
pricing
vendors
and
pricing
agents.
The
duties
and
responsibilities
of
the
Valuation
Designee
are
performed
by
its
Valuation
Committee. The
Valuation
Designee provides
periodic
reporting
to
the
Board
on
valuation
matters.
Various
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
are
used
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments.
GAAP
establishes
the
following
fair
value
hierarchy
that
categorizes
the
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value:
Level
1
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
financial
instruments
that
the
fund
can
access
at
the
reporting
date
Level
2
inputs
other
than
Level
1
quoted
prices
that
are
observable,
either
directly
or
indirectly
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
financial
instruments
in
active
markets,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
financial
instruments
in
inactive
markets,
interest
rates
and
yield
curves,
implied
volatilities,
and
credit
spreads)
Level
3
unobservable
inputs
(including
the Valuation
Designee’s assumptions
in
determining
fair
value)
Observable
inputs
are
developed
using
market
data,
such
as
publicly
available
information
about
actual
events
or
transactions,
and
reflect
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
Unobservable
inputs
are
those
for
which
market
data
are
not
available
and
are
developed
using
the
best
information
available
about
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
GAAP
requires
valuation
techniques
to
maximize
the
use
of
relevant
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs.
When
multiple
inputs
are
used
to
derive
fair
value,
the
financial
instrument
is
assigned
to
the
level
within
the
fair
value
hierarchy
based
on
the
lowest-level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
of
the
financial
instrument.
Input
levels
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
or
liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level
but
rather
the
degree
of
judgment
used
in
determining
those
values.
Valuation
Techniques 
Debt
securities
generally
are
traded
in
the over-the-counter
(OTC)
market
and
are
valued
at
prices
furnished
by
independent
pricing
services
or
by
broker
dealers
who
make
markets
in
such
securities.
When
valuing
securities,
the
independent
pricing
services
consider
factors
such
as,
but
not
limited
to,
the
yield
or
price
of
bonds
of
comparable
quality,
coupon,
maturity,
and
type,
as
well
as
prices
quoted
by
dealers
who
make
markets
in
such
securities.   
Investments
in
mutual
funds
are
valued
at
the
mutual
fund’s
closing
NAV
per
share
on
the
day
of
valuation.
Futures
contracts
are
valued
at
closing
settlement
prices.
Swaps
are
valued
at
prices
furnished
by
an
independent
pricing
service
or
independent
swap
dealers.
Assets
and
liabilities
other
than
financial
instruments,
including
short-term
receivables
and
payables,
are
carried
at
cost,
or
estimated
realizable
value,
if
less,
which
approximates
fair
value. 
Investments
for
which
market
quotations are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable
are
valued
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
by
the
Valuation
Designee.
The
Valuation
Designee
has
adopted
methodologies
for
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable,
including
the
use
of
other
pricing
sources.
Factors
used
in
determining
fair
value
vary
by
type
of
investment
and
may
include
market
or
investment
specific
considerations.
The
Valuation
Designee typically
will
afford
greatest
weight
to
actual
prices
in
arm’s
length
transactions,
to
the
extent
they
represent
orderly
transactions
between
market
participants,
transaction
information
can
be
reliably
obtained,
and
prices
are
deemed
representative
of
fair
value.
However,
the
Valuation
Designee may
also
consider
other
valuation
methods
such
as
market-based
valuation
multiples;
a
discount
or
premium
from
market
value
of
a
similar,
freely
traded
security
of
the
same
issuer;
discounted
cash
flows;
yield
to
maturity;
or
some
combination.
Fair
value
determinations
are
reviewed
on
a
regular
basis.
Because
any
fair
value
determination
involves
a
significant
amount
of
judgment,
there
is
a
degree
of
subjectivity
inherent
in
such
pricing
decisions. Fair
value
prices
determined
by
the
Valuation
Designee could
differ
from
those
of
other
market
participants,
and
it
is
possible
that
the
fair
value
determined
for
a
security
may
be
materially
different
from
the
value
that
could
be
realized
upon
the
sale
of
that
security.

-
DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS 
During
the
year ended
December
31,
2022,
the
fund
invested
in
derivative
instruments.
As
defined
by
GAAP,
a
derivative
is
a
financial
instrument
whose
value
is
derived
from
an
underlying
security
price,
foreign
exchange
rate,
interest
rate,
index
of
prices
or
rates,
or
other
variable;
it
requires
little
or
no
initial
investment
and
permits
or
requires
net
settlement.
The
fund
invests
in
derivatives
only
if
the
expected
risks
and
rewards
are
consistent
with
its
investment
objectives,
policies,
and
overall
risk
profile,
as
described
in
its
prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
The
fund
may
use
derivatives
for
a
variety
of
purposes
and
may
use
them
to
establish
both
long
and
short
positions
within
the
fund’s
portfolio.
Potential
uses
include
to
hedge
against
declines
in
principal
value,
increase
yield,
invest
in
an
asset
with
greater
efficiency
and
at
a
lower
cost
than
is
possible
through
direct
investment,
to
enhance
return,
or
to
adjust
portfolio
duration
and
credit
exposure.
The
risks
associated
with
the
use
of
derivatives
are
different
from,
and
potentially
much
greater
than,
the
risks
associated
with
investing
directly
in
the
instruments
on
which
the
derivatives
are
based.
The
fund
values
its
derivatives
at
fair
value
and
recognizes
changes
in
fair
value
currently
in
its
results
of
operations.
Accordingly,
the
fund
does
not
follow
hedge
accounting,
even
for
derivatives
employed
as
economic
hedges.
Generally,
the
fund
accounts
for
its
derivatives
on
a
gross
basis.
It
does
not
offset
the
fair
value
of
derivative
liabilities
against
the
fair
value
of
derivative
assets
on
its
financial
statements,
nor
does
it
offset
the
fair
value
of
derivative
instruments
against
the
right
to
reclaim
or
obligation
to
return
collateral.
The
following
table
summarizes
the
fair
value
of
the
fund’s
derivative
instruments
held
as
of
December
31,
2022,

Counterparty
Risk
and
Collateral
 The
fund
invests
in
derivatives
in
various
markets,
which
expose
it
to
differing
levels
of
counterparty
risk.
Counterparty
risk
on
exchange-traded
and
centrally
cleared
derivative
contracts,
such
as
futures,
exchange-traded
options,
and
centrally
cleared
swaps,
is
minimal
because
the
clearinghouse
provides
protection
against
counterparty
defaults.
For
futures
and
centrally
cleared
swaps,
the
fund
is
required
to
deposit
collateral
in
an
amount
specified
by
the
clearinghouse
and
the
clearing
firm
(margin
requirement),
and
the
margin
requirement
must

Each

its
sole
discretion,

requirements
applicable
to

Derivatives,
such
as
non-cleared bilateral
swaps,
forward
currency
exchange
contracts,
and
OTC
options,
that
are
transacted
and
settle
directly
with
a
counterparty
(bilateral
derivatives)
may
expose
the
fund
to
greater
counterparty
risk.
To
mitigate
this
risk,
the
fund
has
entered
into
master
netting
arrangements
(MNAs)
with
certain
counterparties
that
permit
net
settlement
under
specified
conditions
and,
for
certain
counterparties,
also
require
the
exchange
of
collateral
to
cover
mark-to-market
exposure.
MNAs
may
be
in
the
form
of
International
Swaps
and
Derivatives
Association
master
agreements
(ISDAs)
or
foreign
exchange
letter
agreements
(FX
letters).
MNAs
provide
the
ability
to
offset
amounts
the
fund
owes
a
counterparty
against
amounts
the
counterparty
owes
the
fund
(net
settlement).
Both
ISDAs
and
FX
letters
generally
allow
termination
of
transactions
and
net
settlement
upon
the
occurrence
of
contractually
specified
events,
such
as
failure
to
pay
or
bankruptcy.
In
addition,
ISDAs
specify
other
events,
the
occurrence
of
which
would
allow
one
of
the
parties
to
terminate.
For
example,
a
downgrade
in
credit
rating
of
a
counterparty
below
a
specified
rating
would
allow
the
fund
to
terminate,
while
a
decline
in
the
fund’s
net
assets
of
more
than
a
specified
percentage
would
allow
the
counterparty
to
terminate.
Upon
termination,
all
transactions
with
that
counterparty
would
be
liquidated
and
a
net
termination
amount
settled.
ISDAs
typically
include
collateral
agreements
whereas
FX
letters
do
not.
Collateral
requirements
are
determined
daily
based
on
the
net
aggregate
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
all
bilateral
derivatives
with
each
counterparty,
subject
to
minimum
transfer
amounts
that
typically
range
from
$100,000
to
$250,000.
Any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
typically
transferred
the
next
business
day.
Collateral
may
be
in
the
form
of
cash
or
debt
securities
issued
by
the
U.S.
government
or
related
agencies,
although
other
securities
may
be
used
depending
on
the
terms
outlined
in
the
applicable
MNA.
Cash
posted
by
the
fund
is
reflected
as
cash
deposits
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
and
generally
is
restricted
from
withdrawal
by
the
fund;
securities
posted
by
the
fund
are
so
noted
in
the
accompanying
Portfolio
of
Investments;
both
remain
in
the
fund’s
assets.
Collateral
pledged
by
counterparties
is
not
included
in
the
fund’s
assets
because
the
fund
does
not
obtain
effective
control
over
those
assets.
For
bilateral
derivatives,
collateral
posted
or
received
by
the
fund
is
held
in
a
segregated
account
at
the
fund’s
custodian.
While
typically
not
sold
in
the
same
manner
as
equity
or
fixed
income
securities,
exchange-traded
or
centrally
cleared
derivatives
may
be
closed
out
only
on
the
exchange
or
clearinghouse
where
the
contracts
were
cleared,
and
OTC
and
bilateral
derivatives
may
be
unwound
with
counterparties
or
transactions
assigned
to
other
counterparties
to
allow
the
fund
to
exit
the
transaction.
This
ability
is
subject
to
the
liquidity
of
underlying
positions. As
of
December
31,
2022,
no
collateral
was
pledged
by
either
the
fund
or
counterparties for
bilateral
derivatives. As
of
December
31,
2022,
securities
valued
at $258,000
had
been
posted
by
the
fund
for
exchange-traded
and/or
centrally
cleared
derivatives.
Futures
Contracts
 The
fund
is
subject
to interest
rate
risk in
the
normal
course
of
pursuing
its
investment
objectives
and
uses
futures
contracts
to
help
manage
such
risk.
The
fund
may
enter
into
futures
contracts
to
manage
exposure
to
interest
rate
and
yield
curve
movements,
security
prices,
foreign
currencies,
credit
quality,
and
mortgage
prepayments;
as
an
efficient
means
of
adjusting
exposure
to
all
or
part
of
a
target
market;
to
enhance
income;
as
a
cash
management
tool;
or
to
adjust
portfolio
duration
and
credit
exposure. A
futures
contract
provides
for
the
future
sale
by
one
party
and
purchase
by
another
of
a
specified
amount
of
a
specific
underlying
financial
instrument
at
an
agreed-upon
price,
date,
time,
and
place.
The
fund
currently
invests
only
in
exchange-traded
futures,
which
generally
are
standardized
as
to
maturity
date,
underlying
financial
instrument,
and
other
contract
terms.
Payments
are
made
or
received
by
the
fund
each
day
to
settle
daily
fluctuations
in
the
value
of
the
contract
(variation
margin),
which
reflect
changes
in
the
value
of
the
underlying
financial
instrument.
Variation
margin
is
recorded
as
unrealized
gain
or
loss
until
the
contract
is
closed.
The
value
of
a
futures
contract
included
in
net
assets
is
the
amount
of
unsettled
variation
margin;
net
variation
margin
receivable
is
reflected
as
an
asset
and
net
variation
margin
payable
is
reflected
as
a
liability
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Risks
related
to
the
use
of
futures
contracts
include
possible
illiquidity
of
the
futures
markets,
contract
prices
that
can
be
highly
volatile
and
imperfectly
correlated
to
movements
in
hedged
security
values
and/or
interest
rates,
and
potential
losses
in
excess
of
the
fund’s
initial
investment.
During
the
year ended
December
31,
2022,
the
volume
of
the
fund’s
activity
in
futures,
based
on
underlying
notional
amounts,
was
generally
between
12%
and

Swaps
 The
fund
is
subject
to
credit
risk in
the
normal
course
of
pursuing
its
investment
objectives
and
uses
swap
contracts
to
help
manage
such
risk.
The
fund
may
use
swaps
in
an
effort
to
manage
both
long
and
short
exposure
to
changes
in
interest
rates,
inflation
rates,
and
credit
quality;
to
adjust
overall
exposure
to
certain
markets;
to
enhance
total
return
or
protect
the
value
of
portfolio
securities;
to
serve
as
a
cash
management
tool;
or
to
adjust
portfolio
duration
and
credit
exposure.
Swap
agreements
can
be
settled
either
directly
with
the
counterparty
(bilateral
swap)
or
through
a
central
clearinghouse
(centrally
cleared
swap).
Fluctuations
in
the
fair
value
of
a
contract
are
reflected
in
unrealized
gain
or
loss
and
are
reclassified
to
realized
gain
or
loss
upon
contract
termination
or
cash
settlement.
Net
periodic
receipts
or
payments
required
by
a
contract
increase
or
decrease,
respectively,
the
value
of
the
contract
until
the
contractual
payment
date,
at
which
time
such
amounts
are
reclassified
from
unrealized
to

cash
payments
are
made

by
the

on
a

in

unrealized

are

and
unrealized
loss
on
contracts
and
premiums
received
are
reflected
as

on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Assets
and

For
bilateral
swaps,
premiums
paid
or
received
are
amortized
over
the
life
of
the
swap
and
are
recognized
as
realized
gain
or
loss
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
For
centrally
cleared
swaps,
payments
are
made
or
received
by
the
fund
each
day
to
settle
the
daily
fluctuation
in
the
value
of
the
contract
(variation
margin).
Accordingly,
the
value
of
a
centrally
cleared
swap
included
in
net
assets
is
the
unsettled
variation
margin;
net
variation
margin
receivable
is
reflected

is
reflected
as

on
the

Credit
default
swaps
are
agreements
where
one
party
(the
protection
buyer)
agrees
to
make
periodic
payments
to
another
party
(the
protection
seller)
in
exchange
for
protection
against
specified
credit
events,
such
as
certain
defaults
and
bankruptcies
related
to
an
underlying
credit
instrument,
or
issuer
or
index
of
such
instruments.
Upon
occurrence
of
a
specified
credit
event,
the
protection
seller
is
required
to
pay
the
buyer
the
difference
between
the
notional
amount
of
the
swap
and
the
value
of
the
underlying
credit,
either
in
the
form
of
a
net
cash
settlement
or
by
paying
the
gross
notional
amount
and
accepting
delivery
of
the
relevant
underlying
credit.
For
credit
default
swaps
where
the
underlying
credit
is
an
index,
a
specified
credit
event
may
affect
all
or
individual
underlying
securities
included
in
the
index
and
will
be
settled
based
upon
the
relative
weighting
of
the
affected
underlying
security(ies)
within
the
index. Generally,
the
payment
risk
for
the
seller
of
protection
is
inversely
related
to
the
current
market
price
or
credit
rating
of
the
underlying
credit
or
the
market
value
of
the
contract
relative
to
the
notional
amount,
which
are
indicators
of
the
markets’
valuation
of
credit
quality.
As
of
December
31,
2022,
the
notional
amount
of
protection
sold
by
the
fund
totaled $1,750,000
(1.0%
of
net
assets),
which
reflects
the
maximum
potential
amount
the
fund
could
be
required
to
pay
under
such
contracts.
Risks
related
to
the
use
of
credit
default
swaps
include
the
possible
inability
of
the
fund
to
accurately
assess
the
current
and
future
creditworthiness
of
underlying
issuers,
the
possible
failure
of
a
counterparty
to
perform
in
accordance
with
the
terms
of
the
swap
agreements,
potential
government
regulation
that
could
adversely
affect
the
fund’s
swap
investments,
and
potential
losses
in
excess
of
the
fund’s
initial
investment.
During
the
year ended
December
31,
2022,
the
volume
of
the
fund’s
activity
in
swaps,
based
on
underlying
notional
amounts,
was
generally
between
2%
and
4%
of
net
assets.

OTHER
INVESTMENT
TRANSACTIONS 
Consistent
with
its
investment
objective,
the
fund
engages
in
the
following
practices
to
manage
exposure
to
certain
risks
and/or
to
enhance
performance.
The
investment
objective,
policies,
program,
and
risk
factors
of
the
fund
are
described
more
fully
in
the
fund’s
prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
Restricted
Securities
 The
fund
invests
in
securities
that
are
subject
to
legal
or
contractual
restrictions
on
resale.
Prompt
sale
of
such
securities
at
an
acceptable
price
may
be
difficult
and
may
involve
substantial
delays
and
additional
costs.
Collateralized
Loan
Obligations 
 The
fund
invests
in
collateralized
loan
obligations
(CLOs)
which
are
entities
backed
by
a
diversified
pool
of
syndicated
bank
loans.
The
cash
flows
of
the
CLO
can
be
split
into
multiple
segments,
called
“tranches”
or
“classes”,
which
will
vary
in
risk
profile
and
yield.
The
riskiest
segments,
which
are
the
subordinate
or
“equity”
tranches,
bear
the
greatest
risk
of
loss
from
defaults
in
the
underlying
assets
of
the
CLO
and
serve
to
protect
the
other,
more
senior,
tranches.
Senior
tranches
will
typically
have
higher
credit
ratings
and
lower
yields
than
the
securities
underlying
the
CLO.
Despite
the
protection
from
the
more
junior
tranches,
senior
tranches
can
experience
substantial
losses. 
Mortgage-Backed
Securities
 The
fund
invests
in
mortgage-backed
securities
(MBS
or
pass-through
certificates)
that
represent
an
interest
in
a
pool
of
specific
underlying
mortgage
loans
and
entitle
the
fund
to
the
periodic
payments
of
principal
and
interest
from
those
mortgages.
MBS
may
be
issued
by
government
agencies
or
corporations,
or
private
issuers.
Most
MBS
issued
by
government
agencies
are
guaranteed;
however,
the
degree
of
protection
differs
based
on
the
issuer.
MBS are
sensitive
to
changes
in
economic
conditions
that
affect
the
rate
of
prepayments
and
defaults
on
the
underlying
mortgages;
accordingly,
the
value,
income,
and
related
cash
flows
from
MBS
may
be
more
volatile
than
other
debt
instruments.
TBA
Purchase,
Sale
Commitments
and
Forward
Settling
Mortgage
Obligations
 The
fund
enters
into
to-be-announced
(TBA)
purchase
or
sale
commitments
(collectively,
TBA
transactions),
pursuant
to
which
it
agrees
to
purchase
or
sell,
respectively,
mortgage-
backed
securities
for
a
fixed
unit
price,
with
payment
and
delivery
at
a
scheduled
future
date
beyond
the
customary
settlement
period
for
such
securities.
With
TBA
transactions,
the
particular
securities
to
be
received
or
delivered
by
the
fund
are
not
identified
at
the
trade
date;
however,
the
securities
must
meet
specified
terms,
including
rate
and
mortgage
term,
and
be
within
industry-accepted
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Limited-Term
Bond

“good
delivery”
standards.
The
fund
may
enter
into
TBA
transactions
with
the
intention
of
taking
possession
of
or
relinquishing
the
underlying
securities,
may
elect
to
extend
the
settlement
by
“rolling”
the
transaction,
and/or
may
use
TBA
transactions
to
gain
or
reduce
interim
exposure
to
underlying
securities.
Until
settlement,
the
fund
maintains
liquid
assets
sufficient
to
settle
its
commitment
to
purchase
a
TBA
or,
in
the
case
of
a
sale
commitment,
the
fund
maintains
an
entitlement
to
the
security
to
be
sold. 
To
mitigate
counterparty
risk,
the
fund
has
entered
into
Master
Securities
Forward
Transaction
Agreements
(MSFTA)
with
counterparties
that
provide
for
collateral
and
the
right
to
offset
amounts
due
to
or
from
those
counterparties
under
specified
conditions.
Subject
to
minimum
transfer
amounts,
collateral
requirements
are
determined
and
transfers
made
based
on
the
net
aggregate
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
all
TBA
commitments
and
other
forward
settling
mortgage
obligations
with
a
particular
counterparty
(collectively,
MSFTA
Transactions).
At
any
time,
the
fund’s
risk
of
loss
from
a
particular
counterparty
related
to
its
MSFTA
Transactions
is
the
aggregate
unrealized
gain
on
appreciated
MSFTA
Transactions
in
excess
of
unrealized
loss
on
depreciated
MSFTA
Transactions
and
collateral
received,
if
any,
from
such
counterparty. As
of
December
31,
2022,
no
collateral
was
pledged
by
the
fund
or
counterparties
for
MSFTA
Transactions.
LIBOR
Transition
 The fund
may
invest
in
instruments
that
are
tied
to
reference
rates,
including
LIBOR.
Over
the
course
of
the
last
several
years,
global
regulators
have
indicated
an
intent
to
phase
out
the
use
of
LIBOR
and
similar
interbank
offered
rates
(IBOR).
While
publication
for
most
LIBOR
currencies
and
lesser-used
USD
LIBOR
settings
ceased
immediately
after
December
31,
2021,
remaining
USD
LIBOR
settings
will
continue
to
be
published
until
June
30,
2023.
There
remains
uncertainty
regarding
the
future
utilization
of
LIBOR
and
the
nature
of
any
replacement
rate.
Any
potential
effects
of
the
transition
away
from
LIBOR
on
the fund,
or
on
certain
instruments
in
which
the fund
invests,
cannot
yet
be
determined.
The
transition
process
may
result
in,
among
other
things,
an
increase
in
volatility
or
illiquidity
of
markets
for
instruments
that
currently
rely
on
LIBOR,
a
reduction
in
the
value
of
certain
instruments
held
by
the fund,
or
a
reduction
in
the
effectiveness
of
related
fund
transactions
such
as
hedges.
Any
such
effects
could
have
an
adverse
impact
on
the fund's
performance.
Securities
Lending
 The fund
may
lend
its
securities
to
approved
borrowers
to
earn
additional
income.
Its
securities
lending
activities
are
administered
by
a
lending
agent
in
accordance
with
a
securities
lending
agreement.
Security
loans
generally
do
not
have
stated
maturity
dates,
and
the
fund
may
recall
a
security
at
any
time.
The
fund
receives
collateral
in
the
form
of
cash
or
U.S.
government
securities.
Collateral
is
maintained
over
the
life
of
the
loan
in
an
amount
not
less
than
the
value
of
loaned
securities;
any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
delivered
to
the
fund
the
next
business
day.
Cash
collateral
is
invested
in
accordance
with
investment
guidelines
approved
by
fund
management.
Additionally,
the
lending
agent
indemnifies
the
fund
against
losses
resulting
from
borrower
default.
Although
risk
is
mitigated
by
the
collateral
and
indemnification,
the
fund
could
experience
a
delay
in
recovering
its
securities
and
a
possible
loss
of
income
or
value
if
the
borrower
fails
to
return
the
securities,
collateral
investments
decline
in
value,
and
the
lending
agent
fails
to
perform.
Securities
lending
revenue
consists
of
earnings
on
invested
collateral
and
borrowing
fees,
net
of
any
rebates
to
the
borrower,
compensation
to
the
lending
agent,
and
other
administrative
costs.
In
accordance
with
GAAP,
investments
made
with
cash
collateral
are
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements,
but
collateral
received
in
the
form
of
securities
is
not.
At
December
31,
2022,
the
value
of
loaned
securities
was
$196,000;
the
value
of
cash
collateral
and
related
investments
was
$202,000.
Other 
Purchases
and
sales
of
portfolio
securities
other
than
short-term and
U.S.
government
securities
aggregated $98,491,000 and
$99,677,000,
respectively,
for
the
year ended
December
31,
2022.
Purchases
and
sales
of
U.S.
government
securities
aggregated
$58,006,000 and
$54,527,000,
respectively,
for
the
year ended
December
31,

FEDERAL
INCOME
TAXES
Generally,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
since
the
fund
intends
to
continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
under
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
and
distribute

Distributions
determined
in

federal
income
tax
regulations
may
differ
in
amount
or
character
from
net
investment
income
and
realized
gains
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
The fund
files
U.S.
federal,
state,
and
local
tax
returns
as
required. The
fund’s
tax
returns
are
subject
to
examination
by
the
relevant
tax
authorities
until
expiration
of
the
applicable
statute
of
limitations,
which
is
generally
three
years
after
the
filing
of
the

return
but
which
can
be
extended
to
six
years
in
certain
circumstances.
Tax

OTHER
MATTERS
Unpredictable
events
such
as
environmental
or
natural
disasters,
war,
terrorism,
pandemics,
outbreaks
of
infectious
diseases,
and
similar
public
health
threats
may
significantly
affect
the
economy
and
the
markets
and
issuers
in
which
the fund
invests.
Certain
events
may
cause
instability
across
global
markets,
including
reduced
liquidity
and
disruptions
in
trading
markets,
while
some
events
may
affect
certain
geographic
regions,
countries,
sectors,
and
industries
more
significantly
than
others,
and
exacerbate
other
pre-existing
political,
social,
and
economic
risks.
Since
2020,
a
novel
strain
of
coronavirus
(COVID-19)
has
resulted
in
disruptions
to
global
business
activity
and
caused
significant
volatility
and
declines
in
global
financial
markets.
In
February
2022,
Russian
forces
entered
Ukraine
and
commenced
an
armed
conflict
leading
to
economic
sanctions
being
imposed
on
Russia
and
certain
of
its
citizens,
creating
impacts
on
Russian-related
stocks
and
debt
and
greater
volatility
in
global
markets.
These
are
recent
examples
of
global
events
which
may
have
a
negative
impact
on
the
values
of
certain
portfolio
holdings
or
the
fund’s
overall
performance.
Management
is
actively
monitoring
the
risks
and
financial
impacts
arising
from
these
events.

In

of

Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Fund’s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audits.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public
Company
Accounting
Oversight
Board
(United
States)
(PCAOB)
and
are
required
to
be
independent
with
respect
to
the
Fund
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audits
of
these
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
Our
audits
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
audits
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial
statements.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
December
31,
2022
by
correspondence
with
the
custodians,
transfer
agent
and
brokers;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
We
believe
that
our
audits
provide
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.

Approval
of
Subadvisory
Agreement
At
a
meeting
held
on
July
25,
2022
(Meeting),
the
fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(Board)
considered
the
initial
approval
of
an
investment
subadvisory
agreement
(Subadvisory
Contract)
that
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
(Adviser),
entered
into
with
T.
Rowe
Price
International
Ltd
(Subadviser)
on
behalf
of
the
fund.
The
Subadvisory
Contract
authorizes
the
Subadviser
to
have
investment
discretion
with
respect
to
all
or
a
portion
of
the
fund’s
portfolio.
The
Board
noted
that
the
Subadvisory
Contract
will
be
substantially
similar
to
other
subadvisory
agreements
that
are
in
place
for
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
that
delegate
investment
management
responsibilities
to
affiliated
investment
advisers
and
that
the
Adviser
will
retain
oversight
responsibilities
with
respect
to
the
fund.
The
Board
also
noted
that
the
new
subadvisory
arrangement
will
not
change
the
total
advisory
fees
paid
by
the
fund.
However,
under
the
Subadvisory
Contract,
the
Adviser
may
pay
the
Subadviser
up
to
60%
of
the
advisory
fees
that
the
Adviser
receives
from
the
fund.
At
the
Meeting,
the
Board
reviewed
materials
relevant
to
its
consideration
of
the
proposed
Subadvisory
Contract.
Each
year,
the
Board
considers
the
continuation
of
the
investment
management
agreement
(Advisory
Contract)
between
the
fund
and
the
Adviser.
The
fund’s
Advisory
Contract
was
most
recently
approved
by
the
Board
at
a
meeting
held
on
March
7–8,
2022
(March
Meeting).
A
discussion
of
the
basis
for
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
Advisory
Contract
is
included
in
the
fund’s
semiannual
shareholder
report
for
the
period
ended
June
30,
2022.
The
factors
considered
by
the
Board
at
the
Meeting
in
connection
with
approval
of
the
proposed
Subadvisory
Contract
were
substantially
similar
to
the
factors
considered
at
the
March
Meeting
in
connection
with
the
approval
to
continue
the
Advisory
Contract.
The
independent
directors
were
assisted
in
their
evaluation
of
the
Subadvisory
Contract
by
independent
legal
counsel
from
whom
they
received
separate
legal
advice
and
with
whom
they
met
separately.
Following
discussion
at
the
Meeting,
the
Board,
including
all
of
the
fund’s
independent
directors,
approved
the
Subadvisory
Contract
between
the
Adviser
and
Subadviser
on
behalf
of
the
fund.
No
single
factor
was
considered
in
isolation
or
to
be
determinative
to
the
decision.
Rather,
the
Board
concluded,
in
light
of
a
weighting
and
balancing
of
all
factors
considered,
that
it
was
in
the
best
interests
of
the
fund
and
its
shareholders
for
the
Board
to
approve
the
Subadvisory
Contract
effective
September
1,
2022.

LIQUIDITY
RISK
MANAGEMENT
PROGRAM
In
accordance
with
Rule
22e-4
(Liquidity
Rule)
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended,
the
fund
has
established
a
liquidity
risk
management
program
(Liquidity
Program)
reasonably
designed
to
assess
and
manage
the
fund’s
liquidity
risk,
which
generally
represents
the
risk
that
the
fund
would
not
be
able
to
meet
redemption
requests
without
significant
dilution
of
remaining
investors’
interests
in
the
fund.
The
fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(Board)
has
appointed
the
fund’s
investment
adviser,
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
(Adviser),
as
the
administrator
of
the
Liquidity
Program.
As
administrator,
the
Adviser
is
responsible
for
overseeing
the
day-to-day
operations
of
the
Liquidity
Program
and,
among
other
things,
is
responsible
for
assessing,
managing,
and
reviewing
with
the
Board
at
least
annually
the
liquidity
risk
of
each
T.
Rowe
Price
fund.
The
Adviser
has
delegated
oversight
of
the
Liquidity
Program
to
a
Liquidity
Risk
Committee
(LRC),
which
is
a
cross-
functional
committee
composed
of
personnel
from
multiple
departments
within
the
Adviser.
The
Liquidity
Program’s
principal
objectives
include
supporting
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds’
compliance
with
limits
on
investments
in
illiquid
assets
and
mitigating
the
risk
that
the
fund
will
be
unable
to
timely
meet
its
redemption
obligations.
The
Liquidity
Program
also
includes
a
number
of
elements
that
support
the
management
and
assessment
of
liquidity
risk,
including
an
annual
assessment
of
factors
that
influence
the
fund’s
liquidity
and
the
periodic
classification
and
reclassification
of
a
fund’s
investments
into
categories
that
reflect
the
LRC’s
assessment
of
their
relative
liquidity
under
current
market
conditions.
Under
the
Liquidity
Program,
every
investment
held
by
the
fund
is
classified
at
least
monthly
into
one
of
four
liquidity
categories
based
on
estimations
of
the
investment’s
ability
to
be
sold
during
designated
time
frames
in
current
market
conditions
without
significantly
changing
the
investment’s
market
value.
As
required
by
the
Liquidity
Rule,
at
a
meeting
held
on
July
25,
2022,
the
Board
was
presented
with
an
annual
assessment
prepared
by
the
LRC,
on
behalf
of
the
Adviser,
that
addressed
the
operation
of
the
Liquidity
Program
and
assessed
its
adequacy
and
effectiveness
of
implementation,
including
any
material
changes
to
the
Liquidity
Program
and
the
determination
of
each
fund’s
Highly
Liquid
Investment
Minimum
(HLIM).
The
annual
assessment
included
consideration
of
the
following
factors,
as
applicable:
the
fund’s
investment
strategy
and
liquidity
of
portfolio
investments
during
normal
and
reasonably
foreseeable
stressed
conditions,
including
whether
the
investment
strategy
is
appropriate
for
an
open-end
fund,
the
extent
to
which
the
strategy
involves
a
relatively
concentrated
portfolio
or
large
positions
in
particular
issuers,
and
the
use
of
borrowings
for
investment
purposes
and
derivatives;
short-term
and
long-term
cash
flow
projections
covering
both
normal
and
reasonably
foreseeable
stressed
conditions;
and
holdings
of
cash
and
cash
equivalents,
as
well
as
available
borrowing
arrangements.
For
the
fund
and
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
the
annual
assessment
incorporated
a
report
related
to
a
fund’s
holdings,
shareholder
and
portfolio
concentration,
any
borrowings
during
the
period,
cash
flow
projections,
and
other
relevant
data
for
the
period
of
April
1,
2021,
through
March
31,
2022.
The
report
described
the
methodology
for
classifying
a
fund’s
investments
(including
any
derivative
transactions)
into
one
of
four
liquidity
categories,
as
well
as
the
percentage
of
a
fund’s
investments
assigned
to
each
category.
It
also
explained
the
methodology
for
establishing
a
fund’s
HLIM
and
noted
that
the
LRC
reviews
the
HLIM
assigned
to
each
fund
no
less
frequently
than
annually.
During
the
period
covered
by
the
annual
assessment,
the
LRC
has
concluded,
and
reported
to
the
Board,
that
the
Liquidity
Program
continues
to
operate
adequately
and
effectively
and
is
reasonably
designed
to
assess
and
manage
the
fund’s
liquidity
risk.

Item 1. (b) Notice pursuant to Rule 30e-3.

Not applicable.

Item 2.  Code of Ethics.

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

Item 3.  Audit Committee Financial Expert.

The registrant’s Board of Directors has determined that Ms. Teresa Bryce Bazemore qualifies as an audit committee financial expert, as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR. Ms. Bazemore is considered independent for purposes of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.

Item 4.  Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

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

 

               

2022

    

2021

 
 

Audit Fees

   $ 30,858      $ 29,941  
 

Audit-Related Fees

     -        -  
 

Tax Fees

     -        4,497  
 

All Other Fees

     -        -  

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

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

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

 


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

(g)  The aggregate fees billed for the most recent fiscal year and the preceding fiscal year by the registrant’s principal accountant for non-audit services rendered to the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant were $2,037,000 and $3,732,000, respectively.

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

Item 5.  Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.

Not applicable.

Item 6. Investments.

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

(b)  Not applicable.

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

Not applicable.

Item 8.  Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

Not applicable.

Item 9.  Purchases of Equity Securities by Closed-End Management Investment Company and Affiliated Purchasers.

Not applicable.

Item 10.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

There has been no change to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the registrant’s board of directors.

Item 11.  Controls and Procedures.

(a)  The registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures within 90 days of this filing and have concluded that the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of that date, in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in this Form N-CSR was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported timely.

 


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

Item 12. Disclosure of Securities Lending Activities for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

Not applicable.

Item 13.  Exhibits.

 

(a)(1)    

The registrant’s code of ethics pursuant to Item 2 of Form N-CSR is attached.

     (2)    

Separate certifications by the registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and required by Rule 30a-2(a) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, are attached.

     (3)    

Written solicitation to repurchase securities issued by closed-end companies: not applicable.
