b T. Rowe Price Associates,
Inc., has contractually agreed (through April 30, 2024) to waive its fees and/or bear any expenses (excluding
interest; expenses related to borrowings, taxes, and brokerage; nonrecurring, extraordinary expenses;
and acquired fund fees and expenses) that would cause the class’ ratio of expenses to average daily
net assets to exceed 0.27%. The agreement may only be terminated at any time after April 30, 2024, with
approval by the fund’s Board of Directors. Fees waived and expenses paid under this agreement (and
previous limitations of 0.32% and 0.30%) are subject to reimbursement to T. Rowe Price Associates,
Inc., by the fund whenever the class’ expense ratio is below 0.27%. However, no reimbursement will
be made more than three years from the date such amounts were initially waived or reimbursed. The fund
may only make repayments to T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., if such repayment does not cause the class’
expense ratio (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed the lesser of: (1) the expense limitation
in place at the time such amounts were waived; or (2) the class’ current expense limitation.
c T.
Rowe Price Associates, Inc., has contractually agreed (through April 30, 2022) to pay the operating expenses
of the fund’s I Class excluding management fees; interest; expenses related to borrowings, taxes,
and brokerage; nonrecurring, extraordinary expenses; and acquired fund fees and expenses (“I Class
Operating Expenses”), to the extent the I Class Operating Expenses exceed 0.05% of the class’ average
daily net assets. The agreement may only be terminated at any time after April 30, 2022, with approval
by the fund’s Board of Directors. Any expenses paid under this agreement (and a previous limitation
of 0.05%) are subject to reimbursement to T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., by the fund whenever the fund’s
I Class Operating Expenses are below 0.05%. However, no reimbursement will be made more than three years
from the date such amounts were initially waived or reimbursed. The fund may only make repayments to T. Rowe
Price Associates, Inc., if such repayment does not cause the I Class Operating Expenses (after the repayment
is taken into account) to exceed the lesser of: (1) the limitation on I Class Operating Expenses in
place at the time such amounts were waived; or (2) the current expense limitation on I Class Operating
Expenses.
d T. Rowe Price Associates,
Inc., has contractually agreed to waive and/or bear all the Z Class’ expenses (excluding interest;
expenses related to borrowings, taxes, and brokerage; nonrecurring, extraordinary expenses; and acquired
fund fees and expenses) in their entirety. T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., expects this fee waiver and/or
expense reimbursement arrangement to remain in place indefinitely, and the agreement may only be amended
or terminated with approval by the fund’s Board of Directors.
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. The example also assumes that any current expense limitation arrangement
remains in place for the period noted in the table above; therefore, the figures have been adjusted to
reflect fee waivers or expense reimbursements only in the periods for which the expense limitation arrangement
is expected to continue. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions
your costs would be:
| | | | |
| 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | 10 years |
Investor
Class | $29 | $170 | $893 | $2,823 |
I
Class | 89 | 733 | 1,402 | 3,193 |
Z Class | 1 | 3 | 6 | 13 |
