T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Short-Intermediate Fund

Supplement to Prospectus and Summary Prospectus dated July 1, 2021

The following changes are effective October 1, 2021.

The fund’s Board of Directors (Board) has approved lowering the fund’s management fee. The fund’s management fee consists of a group fee component that declines at certain asset levels based on the combined net assets of all T. Rowe Price funds (except the funds-of-funds, TRP Reserve Funds, Multi-Sector Account Portfolios, and any index or private-label mutual funds) and an individual fund fee component. On February 28, 2021, the effective annual group fee rate was 0.28% of the fund’s average daily net assets and its individual fund fee rate, also applied to the fund’s average daily net assets, was 0.10%. Effective October 1, 2021, the fund’s individual fund fee rate will be reduced to 0.05% of the fund’s average daily net assets.

To reflect the lower management fee, the fee table and expense example on pages 1 and 2 of the summary prospectus and prospectus are revised as follows:

Example This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods, that your investment has a 5% return each year, and that the fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

The first paragraph below the “Group Fee Schedule” table on page 9 of the prospectus is replaced with the following:

The fund’s group fee is determined by applying the group fee rate to the fund’s average daily net assets. On February 28, 2021, the effective annual group fee rate was 0.28%. Effective October 1, 2021, the individual fund fee rate, also applied to the fund’s average daily net assets, will be 0.05%. Prior to October 1, 2021, the fund’s individual fund fee rate was 0.10%.

The date of this supplement is September 28, 2021.
