ETFs are bought and sold at market prices, not NAV. Investors generally incur the cost of the spread between the prices at which shares are bought and sold. Buying and selling shares may result in brokerage commissions, which will reduce returns.

Consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of the T. Rowe Price mutual funds carefully before investing. For a prospectus or, if available, a summary prospectus containing this and other information, visit troweprice.com or contact your financial professional. Read it carefully.

The T. Rowe Price model portfolios are a nondiscretionary investment management program provided by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. T. Rowe Price mutual funds are distributed by T. Rowe Price Investment Services, Inc. T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., and T. Rowe Price Investment Services, Inc., are affiliated companies. The T. Rowe Price group of companies, including its affiliates, receive revenue from T. Rowe Price investment products and services.

This material is provided for informational purposes only; it is not personalized investment advice, a recommendation concerning investments, investment strategies, or account types by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., or any of its affiliates (T. Rowe Price), and it is not intended to suggest that any particular investment action is appropriate for you, nor is it intended to serve as the primary basis for investment decision-making. T. Rowe Price’s role is limited to providing your financial professional with nondiscretionary investment advice in the form of model portfolios. The T. Rowe Price model portfolios are only available through financial professionals, and your financial professional is responsible for determining if these portfolios and the mutual funds utilized in them are appropriate for you. T. Rowe Price’s role is limited to providing your advisor with nondiscretionary investment advice in the form of model portfolios. The implementation of these model portfolios and any securities selected for your account is at the full discretion of your financial professional.

Risks: All investments are subject to risk, including possible loss of principal. The model portfolios are subject to the risks of the underlying mutual funds utilized in the model. Fixed income securities are subject to credit risk, liquidity risk, call risk, and interest rate risk. As interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall. International, mid-cap, and small-cap investing are subject to additional risks and volatility. These risks are generally greater for investments in emerging markets. Diversification does not assure a profit nor protect against a loss in a declining market.

Active investing may have higher costs than passive investing and may underperform the broad market or passive peers with similar objectives. Passive investments seek to match the performance of their benchmark; therefore, holdings generally are not reallocated based on changes in market conditions. As a result, the investment's performance may lag the performance of actively managed investments.

Municipal securities will be highly impacted by events tied to the overall municipal securities markets, which can be very volatile and significantly affected by unfavorable legislative or political developments and adverse changes in the financial conditions of municipal securities issuers and the economy. Some income may be subject to state and local taxes and the federal alternative minimum tax. Capital gains, if any, are generally taxable.
