Chairman's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

This shareholder update and report on the performance of your fund is among the first to be produced under the new Sarbanes-Oxley Public Company Accounting and Investor Protection Act of 2002. This act requires that public companies certify, under penalty of law, the financial information they report to shareholders. It was adopted by Congress in reaction to several incidents of corporate malfeasance that brought the integrity of management of some publicly traded companies into question.

After the act was signed into law, the Securities and Exchange Commission interpreted it as applying to mutual funds as well as public companies. Thus, every mutual fund now is required to certify that the financial information provided in annual and semiannual reports to shareholders fully and fairly presents its financial position.

There is little doubt that the intent of Congress and regulators in this matter is a noble one - to improve the accuracy and accountability of financial reporting to investors by corporate America. We in no way condone any of the activities that brought about these requirements, and we welcome any and every reasonable proposal to strengthen investor protection and information disclosure.

That said, we are proud that mutual funds have always provided full and fair disclosure. Governed by the Investment Company Act of 1940 - and monitored and regulated by federal and state agencies, industry oversight associations, and independent directors - mutual funds are among the most transparent of all financial products. For example, the prices of mutual fund shares are established and published every business day, and the majority of members of the Board of Trustees that oversees our funds are not affiliated with the business of Fidelity. The disclosure standards of mutual funds actually have become models for governance and transparency across corporate America.

We are, of course, complying in full with the letter of this new requirement and hope that any future efforts by Congress to reassure investors about the honesty of corporate America will focus on practical and substantive solutions of genuine value to shareholders.

This sort of careful consideration was evident as Congress deliberated President Bush's tax cut package this spring, then enacted legislation that contains a variety of benefits for American families, investors and businesses. Although the final bill did not completely eliminate the tax that individual investors pay when they receive dividends from companies, it still will benefit American investors, and we applaud it in the spirit of compromise that marked the debate in Congress.

At Fidelity, we are committed to acting at all times in accordance with the highest standards of integrity and in the best interests of our fund shareholders. We are proud of the amount of information we provide to those who invest in our funds and pleased to continue that level of communication with you in these reports.

Best regards,

/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Dividend Growth Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share (NAV calculation) is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price or official closing price (closing bid price or last evaluated quote if no sale has occurred) on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. Debt securities for which quotations are readily available are valued at their most recent bid prices (sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in the principal market in which such securities are normally traded, as determined by recognized dealers in such securities, or securities are valued on the basis of information provided by a pricing service. Pricing services use valuation matrices that incorporate both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. If an event that is expected to materially affect the value of a security occurs after the close of an exchange or market on which that security trades, but prior to the NAV calculation, then that security will be fair valued taking the event into account. Securities (including restricted securities) for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Price movements in futures contracts and ADRs, market and trading trends, the bid/ask quotes of brokers and off-exchange institutional trading may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security's fair value.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued

(Amounts in thousands except ratios)

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Semiannual Report

Security Valuation - continued

Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued on the basis of amortized cost. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

Foreign Currency. The fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

Foreign denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

Investment Transactions and Income. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.

Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the funds in the trust.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year the fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required in the accompanying financial statements. Foreign taxes are provided for based on each fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Semiannual Report

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders - continued

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent and temporary book and tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary differences will reverse in a subsequent period. These differences are primarily due to futures transactions, foreign currency transactions, prior period premium and discount on debt securities, market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

The federal tax cost of investments including unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end was as follows:

Unrealized appreciation

2. Operating Policies.

Repurchase Agreements. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) has received an Exemptive Order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) which permits the fund and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts. These accounts are then invested in repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or Government obligations. The fund may also invest directly with institutions, in repurchase agreements that are collateralized by commercial paper obligations and corporate obligations. The custodian bank receives the collateral, which is marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest).

Futures Contracts. The fund may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the stock market. Buying futures tends to increase the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument, while selling futures tends to decrease the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument or hedge other fund investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the underlying instruments or if the counter-parties do not perform under the contracts' terms. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the futures contracts. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.

Restricted Securities. The fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Information regarding purchases and sales of securities is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.

The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .28% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .58% of the fund's average net assets.

Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares. Certain classes pay Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, separate Distribution and Service Fees, each of which is based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. Class A and Class T Plans also authorize the use of brokerage commissions to pay distribution expenses. In addition, FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund and providing shareholder support services. For the period, the Distribution and Service Fee rates, the total amounts paid to and retained by FDC and the amount of distribution expenses paid with brokerage commissions were as follows:

Sales Load. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for selling Class A shares, and 3.50% for selling Class T shares of the fund. FDC receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC) levied on Class A, Class T, Class B, and Class C redemptions. These charges depend on the holding period. The deferred sales charges range from 5% to 1% for Class B, 1% for Class C, and .25% for certain purchases of Class A and Class T shares.

For the period, sales charge amounts retained by FDC were as follows:

Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent (collectively referred to as the transfer agent) for each class of the fund. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the following amounts were paid to FIIOC:

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates - continued

Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the fund's accounting records and administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.

Central Funds. The fund may invest in affiliated Central Funds managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR. The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $940 for the period.

Brokerage Commissions. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms are shown under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

5. Committed Line of Credit.

The fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the line of credit. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.

6. Security Lending.

The fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. The fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Cash collateral is invested in cash equivalents. At period end there were no security loans outstanding.

7. Expense Reductions.

Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the fund provided services to the fund in addition to trade execution. These services may include payments of expenses on behalf of the fund to support distribution of fund shares for Class A and Class T ("Distribution Expense Reduction") and to pay other fund expenses, such as transfer agent fees ("Other Expense Reduction") collectively referred to as "Brokerage Service Arrangements" in the accompanying table. Brokerage service arrangements generally benefit all shareholders of each class by reducing fund expenses. Each of Class A and Class T shareholders' Other Expense Reduction benefit is reduced by the amount of any Distribution Expense Reduction. In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the fund's expenses. All of the applicable expense reductions are noted in the table below.

Annual Report

Chairman's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

This shareholder update and report on the performance of your fund is among the first to be produced under the new Sarbanes-Oxley Public Company Accounting and Investor Protection Act of 2002. This act requires that public companies certify, under penalty of law, the financial information they report to shareholders. It was adopted by Congress in reaction to several incidents of corporate malfeasance that brought the integrity of management of some publicly traded companies into question.

After the act was signed into law, the Securities and Exchange Commission interpreted it as applying to mutual funds as well as public companies. Thus, every mutual fund now is required to certify that the financial information provided in annual and semiannual reports to shareholders fully and fairly presents its financial position.

There is little doubt that the intent of Congress and regulators in this matter is a noble one - to improve the accuracy and accountability of financial reporting to investors by corporate America. We in no way condone any of the activities that brought about these requirements, and we welcome any and every reasonable proposal to strengthen investor protection and information disclosure.

That said, we are proud that mutual funds have always provided full and fair disclosure. Governed by the Investment Company Act of 1940 - and monitored and regulated by federal and state agencies, industry oversight associations, and independent directors - mutual funds are among the most transparent of all financial products. For example, the prices of mutual fund shares are established and published every business day, and the majority of members of the Board of Trustees that oversees our funds are not affiliated with the business of Fidelity. The disclosure standards of mutual funds actually have become models for governance and transparency across corporate America.

We are, of course, complying in full with the letter of this new requirement and hope that any future efforts by Congress to reassure investors about the honesty of corporate America will focus on practical and substantive solutions of genuine value to shareholders.

This sort of careful consideration was evident as Congress deliberated President Bush's tax cut package this spring, then enacted legislation that contains a variety of benefits for American families, investors and businesses. Although the final bill did not completely eliminate the tax that individual investors pay when they receive dividends from companies, it still will benefit American investors, and we applaud it in the spirit of compromise that marked the debate in Congress.

At Fidelity, we are committed to acting at all times in accordance with the highest standards of integrity and in the best interests of our fund shareholders. We are proud of the amount of information we provide to those who invest in our funds and pleased to continue that level of communication with you in these reports.

Best regards,

/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

(Amounts in thousands except ratios)

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Dividend Growth Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series I (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share (NAV calculation) is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price or official closing price (closing bid price or last evaluated quote if no sale has occurred) on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. Debt securities for which quotations are readily available are valued at their most recent bid prices (sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in the principal market in which such securities are normally traded, as determined by recognized dealers in such securities, or securities are valued on the basis of information provided by a pricing service. Pricing services use valuation matrices that incorporate both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. If an event that is expected to materially affect the value of a security occurs after the close of an exchange or market on which that security trades, but prior to the NAV calculation, then that security will be fair valued taking the event into account. Securities (including restricted securities) for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Price movements in futures contracts and ADRs, market and trading trends, the bid/ask quotes of brokers and off-exchange institutional trading may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security's fair value.

(Amounts in thousands except ratios)

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Semiannual Report

Security Valuation - continued

Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued on the basis of amortized cost. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

Foreign Currency. The fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

Foreign denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

Investment Transactions and Income. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.

Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the funds in the trust.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year the fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required in the accompanying financial statements. Foreign taxes are provided for based on each fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders - continued

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent and temporary book and tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary differences will reverse in a subsequent period. These differences are primarily due to futures transactions, foreign currency transactions, prior period premium and discount on debt securities, market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

The federal tax cost of investments including unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end was as follows:

2. Operating Policies.

Repurchase Agreements. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) has received an Exemptive Order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) which permits the fund and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts. These accounts are then invested in repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or Government obligations. The fund may also invest directly with institutions, in repurchase agreements that are collateralized by commercial paper obligations and corporate obligations. The custodian bank receives the collateral, which is marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest).

Futures Contracts. The fund may use futures contracts to manage its exposure to the stock market. Buying futures tends to increase the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument, while selling futures tends to decrease the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument or hedge other fund investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the underlying instruments or if the counter-parties do not perform under the contracts' terms. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the futures contracts. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.

Restricted Securities. The fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Information regarding purchases and sales of securities is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.

The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .28% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .58% of the fund's average net assets.

Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares. Certain classes pay Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, separate Distribution and Service Fees, each of which is based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. Class A and Class T Plans also authorize the use of brokerage commissions to pay distribution expenses. In addition, FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund and providing shareholder support services. For the period, the Distribution and Service Fee rates, the total amounts paid to and retained by FDC and the amount of distribution expenses paid with brokerage commissions were as follows:

Sales Load. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75% for selling Class A shares, and 3.50% for selling Class T shares of the fund. FDC receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC) levied on Class A, Class T, Class B, and Class C redemptions. These charges depend on the holding period. The deferred sales charges range from 5% to 1% for Class B, 1% for Class C, and .25% for certain purchases of Class A and Class T shares.

For the period, sales charge amounts retained by FDC were as follows:

Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent (collectively referred to as the transfer agent) for each class of the fund. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to the account size and type of account of the shareholders of the respective classes of the fund.

Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the fund's accounting records and administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.

Central Funds. The fund may invest in affiliated Central Funds managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR. The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $940 for the period.

Brokerage Commissions. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms are shown under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

5. Committed Line of Credit.

The fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the line of credit. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.

6. Security Lending.

The fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. The fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Cash collateral is invested in cash equivalents. At period end there were no security loans outstanding.

7. Expense Reductions.

Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the fund provided services to the fund in addition to trade execution. These services may include payments of expenses on behalf of the fund to support distribution of fund shares for Class A and Class T ("Distribution Expense Reduction") and to pay other fund expenses, such as transfer agent fees ("Other Expense Reduction") collectively referred to as "Brokerage Service Arrangements" in the accompanying table. Brokerage service arrangements generally benefit all shareholders of each class by reducing fund expenses. Each of Class A and Class T shareholders' Other Expense Reduction benefit is reduced by the amount of any Distribution Expense Reduction. In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the fund's expenses. All of the applicable expense reductions are noted in the table below.
