Information provided in, and presentation of, this document are for informational and educational purposes only and are not a recommendation to take any particular action, or any

action at all, nor an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any securities or services presented. It is not investment advice. Fidelity does not provide legal or tax advice.

Before making any investment decisions, you should consult with your own professional advisers and take into account all of the particular facts and circumstances of your individual

situation. Fidelity and its representatives may have a conflict of interest in the products or services mentioned in these materials because they have a financial interest in them, and

receive compensation, directly or indirectly, in connection with the management, distribution, and/or servicing of these products or services, including Fidelity funds, certain thirdparty funds and products, and certain investment services.

Fidelity has prepared this material for, and only intends to provide it to, institutional, sophisticated, and/or qualified investors. Do not distribute or reproduce this material.

This information is current as of the date indicated and may change based on market and other conditions.

The value of a strategy's investments will vary in response to many factors, including adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market or economic developments. The value of an individual

security or a particular type of security can be more volatile than and perform differently from the market as a whole. Nearly all accounts are subject to volatility in non-U.S. markets,

either through direct exposure or indirect effects on U.S. markets from events abroad, including fluctuations in foreign currency exchanges rates and, in the case of less developed

markets, currency illiquidity. Developments that disrupt global economies and financial markets, such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health

issues, recessions or other events may magnify factors that affect performance. In addition, some countries experience low or negative interest rates, from time to time, which may

magnify interest rate risk for the markets as a whole and for the funds or accounts. The discontinuation and replacement of LIBOR (an indicative measure of the average interest rate

at which major global banks could borrow from one another) and other benchmark rates may have a significant impact on the financial markets and may adversely impact fund or

account performance. Additionally, funds or accounts that pursue debt investments are subject to risks of prepayment or default, as well as changes to bankruptcy or debtor relief

laws, which may impede collection efforts or alter timing and amount of collections.

Current performance may substantially differ from, and could be significantly lower than, performance shown due to recent significant market volatility. Please contact FIAM for

updated performance numbers after the tenth business day following quarter end.

This strategy¡¯s performance will change daily based on changes in interest rates and market conditions and in response to other economic, political or financial developments. Debt

securities are sensitive to changes in interest rates depending on their maturity, and may involve the risk that their prices may decline if interest rates rise or, conversely, if interest

rates decline, their prices may increase. Debt securities carry the risk of default, prepayment risk, and inflation risk. Changes specific to an issuer, such as its financial condition or

its economic environment, can affect the credit quality or value of an issuer's securities. Lower-quality debt securities (those of less than investment-grade quality, also referred to as

high-yield debt securities) and certain types of other securities are more volatile, speculative and involve greater risk due to increased sensitivity to adverse issuer, political, regulatory

and market developments, especially in periods of general economic difficulty. The value of mortgage securities may change due to shifts in the market's perception of issuers and

changes in interest rates, regulatory, or tax changes.

Tracking Error and Information Ratio are provided for illustrative purposes and are not intended to represent performance of the strategy. They are presented gross of any fees and

expenses that would apply to an investment in the strategy. Historical risk metrics do not necessarily guarantee future risk profile of the strategy.

Derivatives may be volatile and involve significant risk, including but not limited to credit risk, currency risk, leverage risk, counterparty risk, leverage risk, valuation risk, and liquidity

risk. Using derivatives can disproportionately increase losses and reduce opportunities for gains in certain circumstances. Derivatives involve leverage because they can provide

investment exposure in an amount exceeding the initial investment. Leverage can magnify investment risks and cause losses to be realized more quickly. A small change in the

underlying asset, instrument, or index can lead to a significant loss. Assets segregated to cover these transactions may decline in value and are not available to meet redemptions.

Government legislation or regulation could affect the use of these transactions and could limit the ability to pursue such investment strategies.

Stable Value is not a mutual fund. It is a commingled pool of the Fidelity Group Trust for Employee Benefit Plans and managed by Fidelity Management Trust Company, a

Massachusetts trust company.
