Fidelity Funds Société d Investissement à Capital Variable 2a, Rue Albert Borschette B.P. 2174 L-1021 Luxembourg R.C.S. B34036 Tél: +352 250 404 (1) Fax: +352 26 38 39 38 THIS DOCUMENT IS IMPORTANT AND REQUIRES YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. IF IN DOUBT, PLEASE SEEK PROFESSIONAL ADVICE. Dear Shareholder, 15 January 2016 Important Changes to Fidelity Funds Changes to the Investment Objectives, Portfolio Information and Investment Restrictions of Certain Sub-Funds of Fidelity Funds The Board of Directors of Fidelity Funds (the Directors ) regularly reviews the range of funds offered with the aim of providing choice, diversity and value for its investors. We are writing to let you know that, as part of this ongoing process, the Directors have approved changes to the investment objectives and related disclosures under the portfolio information section of the sub-funds listed below: Fidelity Funds Pacific Fund Fidelity Funds Emerging Market Debt Fund Fidelity Funds Emerging Market Corporate Debt Fund Fidelity Funds Global Income Fund Fidelity Funds Global Strategic Bond Fund Fidelity Funds International Bond Fund (the Sub-Funds ) The changes described below are designed to allow the Investment Manager greater flexibility to invest in the stock and bond markets of Mainland China and to broaden the opportunity set for investing in Asia in general. It is important to emphasise that the new investment objectives and portfolio information of the Sub-Funds do not entail any material change in the manner in which they are managed. In the case of equity funds, having the flexibility to invest directly in China A shares provides access to a wider range of industries and individual companies compared to Chinese shares listed outside Mainland China. There are over 2,400 companies listed on the combined Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets, many times the number of Chinese companies listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The China onshore market also offers a more diversified sector distribution compared to the overseas-listed China market which is concentrated in the financial, energy and telecom sectors. Similarly, in the case of fixed income funds, having the flexibility to invest in the onshore Chinese bond market provides access to a larger volume and variety of RMB denominated fixed income instruments than are available within the offshore RMB bond market in terms of issuer type, sectors and credit quality. Foreign investment in the China domestic securities market is available to those entities that have obtained qualified foreign institutional investor ( QFII ) status, amongst other permissible means. This comprises two elements: a QFII holder must have received (i) a securities investment business license ( QFII License ) from the China Securities Regulatory Commission ( CSRC ) and (ii) a foreign exchange registration certification ( QFII Certificate ) from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange. The QFII License is essentially the permission from the CSRC to invest in the China securities market while the QFII Certificate provides a maximum investment quota for investment purposes in China. The Directors confirm that the Sub-Funds have been allocated with the sufficient level of quota under the QFII scheme for the Sub-Funds to invest directly in China A shares or onshore China fixed income securities listed or traded on any Eligible Market in China (which are the Shanghai Stock Exchange, the Shenzhen Stock Exchange or the mainland China interbank bond market). In addition, the QFII License, QFII Certificate and all other necessary approvals in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations have been obtained. 1

Full details of the changes to the investment objectives, portfolio information sections and investment restrictions for the Sub-Funds to be introduced in the Hong Kong Prospectus of Fidelity Funds (the Prospectus ) are shown in the Appendix to this letter. The changes will become effective on 26 February 2016 (the Effective Date ). From the Effective Date, the investment objectives of Fidelity Funds Emerging Market Debt Fund, Fidelity Funds Emerging Market Corporate Debt Fund, Fidelity Funds Global Income Fund, Fidelity Funds Global Strategic Bond Fund and Fidelity Funds International Bond Fund (the Bond Sub-Funds ) will specifically allow the Bond Sub-Funds to make direct investments in onshore China fixed income securities listed or traded on any Eligible Market in China. From the Effective Date, the investment objective of Fidelity Funds Pacific Fund (the Equity Sub-Fund ) will specifically allow the Equity Sub-Fund to make direct investments in the China A and B Share markets. Such investments by the Sub-Funds may be made via the QFII quota of FIL Investment Management (Hong Kong) Limited or through any permissible means available to the funds under prevailing laws and regulations (including, in respect of China A Share investments by the Equity Sub-Fund, via the Stock Connect or any other eligible means). The Bond Sub-Funds can also indirectly access onshore China fixed income securities through financial instruments that invest in or are linked to the performance such onshore China fixed income securities, e.g. via participation notes and credit-linked notes. The Equity Sub-Fund can also indirectly access China A Shares through financial instruments that invest in or are linked to the performance of China A Shares, e.g. via equity-linked notes. As will be disclosed in the investment objectives of the Bond Sub-Funds, the Bond Sub-Funds will not invest more than 10% of their Net Asset Value directly in onshore China fixed income securities listed or traded on any Eligible Market in China with aggregate exposures to such investments (including direct and indirect investments) limited to 30% of the assets of the relevant Bond Sub-Fund (in accordance with the investment restrictions listed in the Prospectus, as set out in the Appendix to this letter). As will be disclosed in the investment objective of the Equity Sub-Fund, the Equity Sub-Fund will not invest more than 10% of its Net Asset Value directly in the China A Share and B Share markets, with aggregate exposures to such investments (including direct and indirect investments) limited to 30% of the assets of the Equity Sub-Fund (in accordance with the investment restrictions listed in the Prospectus, as set out in the Appendix to this letter). Please refer to the China Assets, QFII, Stock Connect, Risks associated with investments in China fixed income instruments and Equity linked Notes and Credit linked Notes (Structured Notes) Risk Factors in section 1.2 of the Prospectus and also the paragraph headed Taxation of Chinese Assets in section 3.3 of the Prospectus for further details on the specific risks relating to these investments. The Directors believe that the changes to the investment objectives, portfolio information sections and investment restrictions of the Sub-Funds are in the best interests of shareholders (the Shareholders or you ). Costs All expenses incurred as a result of the above changes, including any legal, audit, regulatory and mailing charges (amounting to approximately USD 12,000) will be borne by FIL Fund Management Limited as Investment Manager of Fidelity Funds. There are no changes to the fees charged in relation to the Sub- Funds. Next Steps The changes will become effective on 26 February 2016 and if you agree with the proposed changes, there is no need for you to take any action. The Prospectus and the Product Key Facts Statement of the Sub Funds will be updated accordingly. However, if you are not in agreement with these changes and do not want to continue to invest in any of the Sub-Funds once the investment objectives and investment restrictions have been changed, you may switch into another fund offered by Fidelity as available to you, or redeem your holdings, free of charge. 2

Redemptions or switches free of charge can be instructed on any Valuation Date until 4.00 pm Hong Kong time on 25 February 2016, and will normally be dealt with at the next calculated Net Asset Value. Please note that different procedures may apply if dealing in Shares is made through distributors or other intermediaries. Please note that some distributors or other intermediaries may charge additional fees (such as switching or transaction fees) or expenses at their own discretion. For further information on these, please contact your financial adviser or your usual contact at the distributor/ intermediary whom you transact with. In relation to redemptions, payment of proceeds will normally be made within three business days of receipt of completed redemption/sale documentation. Unless such payment or proceeds are subject to legal or regulatory hurdles which render payment impracticable, the maximum interval between the receipt of completed redemption/sale documentation and the payment of proceeds may not exceed one calendar month. For more details regarding switching and redemption, please refer to the Dealing Procedures section in the Appendix: Important Information for Investors in Hong Kong section of the Prospectus. Please note, the redemption or switching of your holding may be deemed as a disposal for tax purposes. Generally, investors will not be subject to any Hong Kong tax on capital gains realised on the redemption or switching of any Shares. However, if any acquisition, switching or redemption of Shares is or forms part of a trade, profession or business carried on in Hong Kong, gains realised may attract Hong Kong profits tax. If you have any concerns about your tax position, we recommend that you seek independent tax advice. The Directors accept full responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in this letter and confirm, having made all reasonable enquiries that to the best of their knowledge and belief there are no other facts the omission of which would make any statement herein misleading. Any terms not defined in this letter shall have the same meaning as in the Prospectus. If you have any questions related to these changes or if you want to request a copy of the Prospectus (which is also available at www.fidelity.com.hk*), please contact your financial adviser or call the Fidelity Investor Hotline^ +852 2629-2629, or you can write to the Hong Kong Representative at Level 21, Two Pacific Place, 88 Queensway, Admiralty, Hong Kong.
