Important Tax Information 2015: Important Information for Individuals about Tax Paid The Fidelity funds listed below paid taxes outside the United States on income from foreign investments during 2015. These funds elected to pass through to their shareholders the foreign taxes paid on these investments. If you are a shareholder in one or more of these funds, you may be able to claim a credit or an itemized deduction on your federal tax return for your share of the amount of tax paid to foreign countries. Generally, a tax credit, if available, is more advantageous than a tax deduction. Finding Your Reportable Amount of Tax Paid by Your Fidelity (s) Fidelity reports your share of foreign tax paid by the mutual funds you owned during the year on your 1099 Tax Reporting Statement: For Fidelity Brokerage Accounts Go to the Supplemental Information portion of your Tax Statement, find the Total Ordinary Dividends and Distributions Detail subsection, column 6, in the Details of 1099-DIV Transactions. For Fidelity s (not brokerage) Accounts See Form 1099-DIV, Dividends and Distributions, column 6. Claiming a Tax Deduction To claim foreign tax paid as an itemized deduction, use IRS Form 1040, Schedule A. Claiming a Tax Credit To claim foreign tax paid as a tax credit, note the following: (1) If your total creditable foreign taxes paid are not more than $300 ($600 if married filing jointly) and you meet all the other requirements listed in the IRS Instructions for Form 1040, you may elect to claim a foreign tax credit directly on Form 1040, line 48, without regard to the foreign tax credit limitation and without filing Form 1116, Tax Credit (Individual, Estate, or Trust). This election is not available to estates or trusts. (2) If your total creditable foreign taxes paid are more than $300 ($600 if married filing jointly) or you are otherwise ineligible to take advantage of reporting the foreign tax credit directly on Form 1040, line 48, you generally will be required to file Form 1116, Tax Credit (Individual, Estate, or Trust), with your Form 1040. When completing Form 1116, you may be required to report your share of foreign taxes paid by each fund and your foreign source income received from each fund. to determine your share of foreign source income received from a fund, you can use one of two methods: method 1: To calculate your foreign source income, multiply the Total Ordinary Dividends (1a) amount reported for that fund by the foreign source income percentage shown for that fund on the following pages. this method can only be used if (1) the highest rate of tax imposed on your taxable income (excluding net capital gain and qualified dividend income) is at or below 28%, and (2) your cumulative foreign qualified dividend income and foreign long-term capital gains from all sources are less than $20,000. To calculate your foreign qualified dividend income from a Fidelity fund, multiply the Total Ordinary Dividends (1a) amount reported for that fund by the foreign source qualified dividend percentage shown for that fund on the following pages.

method 1 should also be used if you cannot treat any portion of your foreign dividends as qualified dividends (for example, if you did not satisfy the holding period requirement for qualified dividends). method 2: If you do not satisfy the requirements to use Method 1, you are required to adjust the amount of foreign source income that is attributable to foreign qualified dividends as part of the foreign tax credit calculation on IRS Form 1116. The foreign source income percentage and foreign source qualified dividend percentage for each fund (which are needed for the calculation) are shown on the following pages. Finding Your Ordinary Dividends (1a) Amount per For Fidelity Brokerage Accounts Go to the Supplemental Information portion of your Tax Statement, find the Total Ordinary Dividends and Distributions Detail subsection, column 1a, in the Details of 1099-DIV Transactions. For Fidelity s (not brokerage) Accounts See Form 1099-DIV, Dividends and Distributions, column 1a. Note: If you did not hold your shares for 16 days within the 31-day period beginning 15 days before the ex-dividend date, you may not be eligible to claim a foreign tax credit. For more information on calculating foreign source income attributable to foreign qualified dividends, 1 or about reporting foreign taxes paid more generally, please see the instructions to Form 1116 (http://www.irs.gov/pub/ irs-pdf/i1116.pdf) and the IRS website (http://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/-tax-credit- Compliance-Tips) or IRS Publication 514 (http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p514.pdf) for more information. We suggest that you consult your tax advisor, who is most familiar with your circumstances, to determine how to report foreign taxes paid on your tax return. If you have any questions or need additional information, please visit us on the Web at Fidelity.com/tax, or call our Tax Reporting Line at 800-544-6666. Fidelity Representatives are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 1 dividends are generally dividends on stock from domestic corporations and certain qualified foreign corporations for which certain holding period requirements are satisfied. dividends are taxed at reduced federal income tax rates and those ordinary dividends that may qualify to be taxed at one of those reduced rates are reported as qualified dividends on Form 1099-DIV.
