Rowe Price, located at 1307 Point Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21231. There are several items on the agenda. We ask you to read the enclosed information carefully and to submit your vote.<br>|

---

The following matters will be considered and acted upon at the Shareholder Meeting. More information on each proposal is included in the enclosed materials.

● Change the diversification policy from diversified to nondiversified for each of the following Funds: T. Rowe Price Emerging Markets Stock Fund, T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Fund, T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Portfolio, T. Rowe Price Institutional Emerging Markets Equity Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Efficient Equity Fund, T. Rowe Price U.S. Equity Research ETF, T. Rowe Price U.S. Equity Research Fund, and T. Rowe Price U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund.

● Change the 80% investment policy for each of the following Funds: T. Rowe Price California Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Georgia Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Intermediate Tax-Free High Yield Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Short-Term Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Tax-Free Money Fund, T. Rowe Price New Jersey Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price New York Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Income Fund, T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Intermediate Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free High Yield Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Income Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Short-Intermediate Fund, and T. Rowe Price Virginia Tax-Free Bond Fund.

● Eliminate the alternative minimum tax (AMT) fundamental policy for each of the following Funds: T. Rowe Price California Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Georgia Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Intermediate Tax-Free High Yield Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Short-Term Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Tax-Free Money Fund, T. Rowe Price New Jersey Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price New York Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free High Yield Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Income Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Short-Intermediate Fund, and T. Rowe Price Virginia Tax-Free Bond Fund.

● Transact such other business as may properly come before the Shareholder Meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof.

Each of these policies is a fundamental policy, which means that a change to the policy requires approval by the Fund's Board of Directors and its shareholders. The Funds' Boards of Directors have determined that each proposal is in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders because it provides greater flexibility to implement the Funds' investment strategies. As a result, the directors have approved each proposal and recommend that shareholders vote in favor of each proposal.

We ask you to read the information carefully and to submit your vote. You are receiving these combined proxy materials for any Fund(s) that you own. We have combined all of the above proposals into this single proxy statement to reduce Fund expenses associated with separate mailings for each impacted Fund. You are being asked to vote only on a particular proposal if you hold shares of a Fund that is impacted by that proposal.

We realize that it may be difficult for most shareholders to attend the Shareholder Meeting and vote their shares in person. However, we do need your vote in order to reach quorum at the Shareholder Meeting with respect to each Fund. Whether or not you plan to be present at the Shareholder Meeting, your vote is very important. If you do not plan to attend the Shareholder Meeting, you can vote online, by telephone, or by signing, dating, and mailing the enclosed proxy card promptly as described on your proxy card and in the enclosed materials. **By voting promptly, you can help the Funds avoid the expense of additional mailings.**

If you have questions, please call one of our service representatives at 1-800-638-8790. Your participation in this vote is extremely important.

Sincerely,

![](trowepre14a003.jpg)

**Who is eligible to vote?**

Shareholders of record at the close of business on March 27, 2026 (the "**Record Date**") of each Fund are hereby notified of the Shareholder Meeting and are entitled to one vote for each full share and a proportionate vote for each fractional share of each Fund they held as of the Record Date.

You will need a control number, which is included on the enclosed proxy card, in order to vote your shares.

● Change the diversification policy from diversified to non-diversified for the T. Rowe Price Emerging Markets Stock Fund, T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Fund, T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Portfolio, T. Rowe Price Institutional Emerging Markets Equity Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Efficient Equity Fund, T. Rowe Price U.S. Equity Research ETF, T. Rowe Price U.S. Equity Research Fund, and T. Rowe Price U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund (each a "**Diversification Policy Change Fund**" and collectively, the "**Diversification Policy Change Funds** ").

● Change the 80% investment policy for the T. Rowe Price California Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Georgia Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Intermediate Tax-Free High Yield Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Short-Term Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Tax-Free Money Fund, T. Rowe Price New Jersey Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price New York Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Income Fund, T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Intermediate Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free High Yield Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Income Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Short-Intermediate Fund, and T. Rowe Price Virginia Tax-Free Bond Fund (each an "**80% Investment Policy Change Fund**" and collectively, the "**80% Investment Policy Change Funds** ").

● Eliminate the alternative minimum tax (AMT) fundamental policy for the T. Rowe Price California Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Georgia Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Intermediate Tax-Free High Yield Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Short-Term Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Maryland Tax-Free Money Fund, T. Rowe Price New Jersey Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price New York Tax-Free Bond Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free High Yield Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Income Fund, T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Short-Intermediate Fund, and T. Rowe Price Virginia Tax-Free Bond Fund (each an "**AMT Policy Change Fund**" and collectively, the "**AMT Policy Change Funds** ").

While the Boards have approved these proposals, each policy is considered a fundamental policy, which means that the policy can only be changed with shareholder approval. As a result, the Boards have also approved submitting these proposals to the Funds' shareholders for their approval.

**What vote is required to approve each proposal?**

For each Fund, the proposal must be approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("**1940 Act**"). The 1940 Act defines such vote as the lesser of: (1) 67% or more of the relevant Fund's shares represented at the Shareholder Meeting if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares are present in person or by proxy; or (2) more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares. Shareholders of all share classes of a particular Fund vote together on any proposal affecting the Fund, unless the matter submitted for approval applies only to a particular share class.

**Who is eligible to vote and what happens if shareholders do not approve a particular proposal?**

Shareholders of a Fund are entitled to vote on each proposal only with respect to that Fund and not with respect to any other Fund of which they do not own any shares as of the Record Date. Accordingly, you are only being asked to vote on the Fund(s) of which you hold shares. If any Fund's shareholders do not approve a particular proposal at the Shareholder Meeting, that Fund's Board may choose to postpone and adjourn the meeting for that Fund and continue to solicit shareholder votes in an effort to achieve quorum and obtain shareholder approval. The adjournment date for the Shareholder Meeting, if needed, is expected to be on or around July 24, 2026.

Shareholders of each respective Fund will be voting separately on a Fund-by-Fund basis. For each proposal, there are multiple Funds seeking shareholder approval of that proposal. If one Fund's shareholders do not approve a particular proposal, that will not impact another Fund whose shareholders approve the same proposal for that Fund. If a Fund's shareholders do not pass a proposal at the Shareholder Meeting or any adjournments thereof, that Fund will not be able to implement the change associated with that proposal and will remain subject to its current fundamental policy.

**What did the Boards consider in recommending that shareholders approve the proposal for each Fund?**

Implementing the change associated with each proposal has been unanimously approved by each Fund's Board and is now subject to approval by each Fund's shareholders. The Boards considered information and recommendations by the Funds' investment adviser, T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. ("**T. Rowe Price**"), in approving each of the proposals. More detailed information about each proposal and the relevant factors considered by the Boards in approving each proposal can be found on the following pages under the heading "MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSALS AND THE BOARDS' CONSIDERATIONS."

**The Boards of the Funds, including the Funds' independent directors, recommend that shareholders of each Fund vote FOR the proposal to change each Fund's fundamental investment policy.**

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSALS AND THE BOARDS' CONSIDERATIONS

**PROPOSAL NO. 1 – Diversification Policy Change**

**Summary of Proposed Changes**

At a meeting on March 11, 2026, the Boards approved submitting a proposal to shareholders to change the diversification policy for each Diversification Policy Change Fund.

● Mutual funds and exchange-traded funds ()"**ETFs**") must be classified under the 1940 Act as either diversified or nondiversified.

● Each Diversification Policy Change Fund is currently classified as diversified, which requires managing its portfolio so that its holdings meet certain thresholds governing portfolio concentration and equity ownership.

● If the proposal is approved, the Diversification Policy Change Funds would be permitted to invest a larger percentage of their assets in a smaller number of issuers.

**Reasons for the Diversification Policy Changes**

● Increased levels of issuer concentration in the Diversification Policy Change Funds' benchmarks have presented challenges for portfolio managers because operating as diversified has limited their ability to overweight certain holdings consistent with the benchmark or caused them to underweight certain holdings relative to their desired allocation.

● The switch to nondiversified status will benefit the Diversification Policy Change Funds and their shareholders through increased investment flexibility, greater ability to stay aligned with benchmarks, and the potential to generate better performance.

● If the proposal is approved, each Diversification Policy Change Fund would continue to be subject to specific tax diversification requirements that apply to all registered investment companies.

**More Detailed Information about the Proposed Changes**

Under the 1940 Act, mutual funds and ETFs are required to be registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("**SEC**") as either diversified or nondiversifed and a fund's diversification policy is required to be a fundamental policy, meaning that it can only be changed with shareholder approval. Each Diversification Policy Change Fund is currently classified as diversified and therefore must operate in compliance with the 1940 Act diversification requirements.

As a diversified fund, each Diversification Policy Change Fund is currently more limited in its ownership of securities of any single issuer than nondiversified funds. Funds that are registered as diversified under the 1940 Act may not: (i) purchase a security if, as a result, with respect to 75% of the value of the fund's total assets, more than 5% of the value of the fund's total assets would be invested in the securities of a single issuer, except for cash, securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities and securities of other investment companies; and (ii) purchase a security if, as a result, with respect to 75% of the value of the fund's total assets, more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any issuer would be held by the fund (other than obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities, or investments in securities of other investment companies).

Nondiversified funds, on the other hand, are not subject to the diversification limits described above and can hold a greater percentage of their assets in the securities of a single issuer. Under applicable SEC guidance, if a nondiversified fund operates as diversified for more than three consecutive years, the fund would automatically convert to a diversified fund for 1940 Act diversification purposes, which would then require shareholder approval to switch back to nondiversified status.

If shareholders approve the proposal, the switch to nondiversified status will allow the Diversification Policy Change Funds to invest a larger percentage of their assets in a smaller number of issuers, which will provide the Diversification Policy Change Funds' portfolio managers with increased investment flexibility and the potential for better investment performance.

In addition, if shareholders approve the proposal, each Diversification Policy Change Fund would continue to be subject to diversification tests under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code ("**IRC**") that apply to regulated investment companies. To qualify under the IRC, among other requirements, each Diversification Policy Change Fund will still be required to limit its investments so that, at the close of each quarter of the taxable year: (i) not more than 25% of a fund's total assets will be invested in the securities of a single issuer; and (ii) with respect to 50% of its total assets, not more than 5% of its total assets will be invested in the securities of a single issuer and a fund will not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of a single issuer.

Although the Diversification Policy Change Funds are not index funds, they are nevertheless managed with an awareness of particular holdings and sectors represented in their benchmarks and other indexes used to evaluate their performance. Markets have recently been operating at all-time highs in terms of index concentration levels in the largest positions. In particular, many large-cap growth indexes and other indexes with higher weightings to technology stocks have become much more concentrated at the individual stock level. For example, the average concentration level of the top 10 holdings in the S&P 500 Index over the last 50 years was 22%. Whereas, as of the end of January 2026, the top 10 positions in the S&P 500 Index represented approximately 40% of the index. Although issuer concentration levels have historically fluctuated in many indexes, T. Rowe Price believes that the trend toward increased issuer concentrations in indexes is likely to persist.

The T. Rowe Price Emerging Markets Stock Fund and T. Rowe Price Institutional Emerging Markets Equity Fund ("**EM Funds**") utilize the MSCI Emerging Markets Index to measure their performance. The index has seen an increase in the concentration of large positions, particularly driven by one position, Taiwan Semiconductor, which is a company held in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index at a weighting of nearly 13% as of the end of January 2026. The EM Funds have an overweight position in this company, as well as overweight positions (above 5%) in three other companies that represent slightly less than 5% of the index (Samsung Electronics, Tencent, and SK Hynix) but could exceed 5% of the index in the near future. Changing the EM Funds to nondiversified would allow the portfolio managers to continue to maintain these overweight positions against a benchmark that has seen increasing concentration in some of these larger positions. The EM Funds previously changed to nondiversified in 2021 but, because they did not operate as nondiversified for a three-year period, they reverted to diversified. However, T. Rowe Price believes it will be challenging for the EM Funds to operate effectively as diversified because the index has become far more concentrated, particularly in the positions noted above.

The T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Fund and T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Portfolio ("**Health Sciences Funds**") are sector-focused funds that have a narrower investment universe than more broadly diversified funds. Because of this, many of the T. Rowe Price funds that focus on a particular sector or industry already are registered and operate as nondiversified. As of the end of January 2026, approximately 28% of the Health Sciences Funds' benchmark, the Russell 3000 Health Care® Index, included holdings greater than 5% of the index (Eli Lilly, Johnson & Johnson, and AbbVie), and the index has other holdings that were also greater than 5% in recent months (United Health Care and Merck). While the Health Sciences Funds are each currently operating under the 25% limit on aggregate holdings in positions that exceed 5% of the Fund, the Health Sciences Funds have approached this limit in recent months when positions in Stryker, Intuitive Surgical, and United Health Group were also above 5%. Changing the Health Sciences Funds to nondiversified would allow the portfolio manager to manage those holdings at appropriate levels relative to the benchmark.

The T. Rowe Price Tax-Efficient Equity Fund ("**Tax-Efficient Fund**") utilizes the Russell 3000 Growth® Index to measure its performance. As of the end of January 2026, nearly 40% of the index was comprised of holdings that were greater than 5% (Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, and Alphabet). Also of note, two additional index constituents (Amazon and Broadcom) were below 5% at the end of January 2026 but have been above 5% in recent months. The index concentration has been persistent and changing the Tax-Efficient Fund to nondiversified will allow the portfolio manager to operate with greater flexibility and express appropriate conviction in these large companies.

The T. Rowe Price U.S. Equity Research ETF, T. Rowe Price U.S. Equity Research Fund, and T. Rowe Price U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund ("**U.S. Core Funds**") utilize the S&P 500 Index, which has demonstrated increasing concentration in its largest positions, to measure their performance. As of the end of January 2026, 25.7% of the S&P 500 Index included holdings that were greater than 5% positions in the benchmark (Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, and Alphabet). This represents a significant increase from one year ago when only 18.9% of the index included holdings greater than 5%. Changing the U.S. Core Funds to nondiversified would allow the portfolio managers greater flexibility to initiate overweight positions in certain stocks when they feel that is appropriate. This is especially important for the T. Rowe Price U.S. Equity Research ETF and T. Rowe Price U.S. Equity Research Fund, which involve a structured, benchmark aware, investment process, but this increased flexibility would also be beneficial for the T. Rowe Price U.S. Large-Cap Core Fund.

Due to the 1940 Act diversification requirements, the Diversification Policy Change Funds may be underweighting certain holdings relative to their weights in their respective benchmarks even if the portfolio managers find them to be attractive investment opportunities. In practice, this means that the Diversification Policy Change Funds may not be able to invest in certain issuers to the extent the portfolio managers desire as a result of the need to comply with the 1940 Act diversification requirements.

Some of the Diversification Policy Change Funds are currently over the 25% limit for diversified funds due to market appreciation, which is permissible because the diversification limits apply at the time of purchase. However, the Diversification Policy Change Funds above the 25% limit currently are restricted from making additional purchases of any issuer that currently represents more than 5% of the Fund's portfolio, unless the total of those 5% positions is reduced below 25%.

T. Rowe Price and the Boards believe that reclassifying each Diversification Policy Change Fund as nondiversified is in the best interests of each Diversification Policy Change Fund and its shareholders because the nondiversified status will provide the Diversification Policy Change Funds' portfolio managers with increased investment flexibility and the potential to generate better investment performance. This additional flexibility is important given the weightings of the largest holdings in the Diversification Policy Change Funds' respective benchmarks and the appreciation of some of the Diversification Policy Change Funds' largest holdings.

T. Rowe Price recognizes that a nondiversified fund typically presents a greater degree of investment risk due to its ability to make more concentrated investments. Because a nondiversified fund can invest more of its assets in a smaller number of issuers, it is more exposed to the risks associated with an individual issuer than a diversified fund that invests more broadly across many issuers. For example, poor performance by a single large holding of a nondiversified fund could adversely affect the fund's performance more than if the fund were invested in a larger number of issuers. If approved, the heightened risks associated with a nondiversified fund would be clearly disclosed in each Diversification Policy Change Fund's prospectus.

For the reasons set forth above, the Boards are seeking your approval to change the diversification policy applicable to each Diversification Policy Change Fund. The Boards considered all relevant factors, including the potential impact of the proposal on the Diversification Policy Change Funds and their shareholders. Following consideration of these matters, the Boards unanimously approved the proposed change to reclassify each Diversification Policy Change Fund as nondiversified.

**Effective Date for the Changes**

If the proposal is approved by shareholders of all Diversification Policy Change Funds at the Shareholder Meeting, the switch from diversified to nondiversified is expected to become effective for all Diversification Policy Change Funds on or about July 1, 2026, and each Diversification Policy Change Fund's prospectus and SAI will be revised accordingly.

If the Shareholder Meeting needs to be adjourned or postponed with respect to any Diversification Policy Change Fund, it is expected that any Diversification Policy Change Fund that has already received shareholder approval will still implement the policy change on July 1, 2026. However, the effective date may be delayed if the Shareholder Meeting needs to be adjourned or postponed for a particular Diversification Policy Change Fund and it is determined to be prudent to implement the proposal at the same time for all Diversification Policy Change Funds. As a result, it is possible that the effective date of the proposal may be delayed for certain Diversification Policy Change Funds until all Diversification Policy Change Funds have received shareholder approval.

**The Boards of the Diversification Policy Change Funds, including the Diversification Policy Change Funds' independent directors, recommend that shareholders of each Diversification Policy Change Fund vote FOR the proposal to change each Diversification Policy Change Fund's policy from diversified to nondiversified.**

**PROPOSAL NO. 2 – 80% Investment Policy Change**

**Summary of Proposed Changes**

At a meeting on March 11, 2026, the Boards approved submitting a proposal to shareholders to change the 80% investment policy for each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund. At the same meeting, the Boards approved other changes described below (some of which do not require shareholder approval) that will impact the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds:

● **Name Changes.** Most of the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds currently use "tax-free" or "tax-exempt" in their names. The Boards approved changing these terms to "municipal" to better align with industry standards and provide more investment flexibility. Two of the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds already reference "municipal" in their name, but their names are also being changed.

● **Elimination of AMT Policy.** Most of the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds currently have a policy that limits or prohibits investments in bonds subject to the federal alternative minimum tax ()"**AMT** "). Eliminating this policy will allow for greater investment flexibility.

The name changes will take effect for each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund on August 1, 2026, regardless of whether shareholders approve the proposed 80% investment policy changes. All but two of the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds have a fundamental policy relating to AMT, for which the Board has approved submitting a separate proposal to shareholders to change that policy. (More details on that proposed change can be found under Proposal No. 3.)

**Reasons for the Name Changes**

Industry practice generally favors using "municipal" in names of funds that are focused on investments in municipal bonds. Under SEC guidance, funds named "tax-free" or "tax-exempt" cannot count AMT bonds toward compliance with their 80% investment policy, but funds using "municipal" can. T. Rowe Price believes that being able to invest more in AMT bonds, when appropriate, could add value for shareholders without increasing overall risk, although portfolio managers will still carefully manage AMT exposure.

**Reasons for the 80% Investment Policy Changes**

Currently, the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds use a mix of asset-based and income-based approaches to comply with the requirements of Rule 35d-1 under the 1940 Act ("**Names Rule**"). The Boards are asking shareholders to approve new 80% investment policies that would enable moving to a single asset-based approach to compliance monitoring. This approach is easier to monitor, reduces compliance risks, and aligns the policies with the new names of the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds. Other key points regarding the proposal include:

● The new policies will reference "municipal bonds" to match the new names.

● The policies will be monitored based only on assets as opposed to future income, making compliance simpler.

● The changes are not expected to materially affect how the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds are managed but will give portfolio managers more flexibility and better align with industry standards.

● The new policies will remove unnecessary references to certain terms and update other terms to more closely align with regulatory requirements.

**More Detailed Information about the Proposed Changes**

At the March 11, 2026 meeting where the Boards approved submitting the 80% investment policy change proposal to shareholders for approval, the Boards also approved a change to the name of each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund, as well as the elimination of any operating policy or fundamental policy applicable to an 80% Investment Policy Change Fund that limits the purchases of bonds subject to AMT. Changes to operating policies require Board approval whereas changes to fundamental policies generally require Board approval and shareholder approval. Accordingly, the name changes and elimination of an AMT operating policy require only Board approval while the elimination of an AMT fundamental policy also requires shareholder approval. As a result, the name changes and elimination of an AMT operating policy will occur regardless of whether shareholder approval is successfully obtained to also change the 80% investment policy for each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund.

Most of the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds include either the term "tax-free" or "tax-exempt" in their name. Across the industry, however, T. Rowe Price's research shows that the term "municipal" has become the dominant naming convention for funds that focus their investments on tax-exempt investments such as municipal bonds. Further, under current SEC guidance, funds that use the term "tax-exempt" or "tax-free" in their names may not count securities that generate income subject to the AMT toward their 80% investment requirement pursuant to the Names Rule, whereas funds that use the term "municipal" are permitted to count such securities toward their 80% investment requirement.

As a result, the Boards have approved changing the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds' names to replace "tax-free" and "tax-exempt" with "municipal" in an effort to better align with industry naming standards and provide increased investment flexibility. (We note that two of the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds already reference the term "municipal" in their name, but there will be other changes to those Funds' names, including the removal of the term "Summit.")

In connection with the name changes, the Boards also approved changing the 80% investment policy required by the Names Rule for each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund to align with its new name (e.g., by referencing "municipal bonds" specifically in the policy) and provide greater portfolio management flexibility.

While funds may normally elect to make an 80% investment policy adopted to comply with the Names Rule a non-fundamental policy (requiring 60 days' notice to shareholders of any change) or a fundamental policy, such policies are required by the Names Rule to be fundamental policies for funds with names suggesting that the fund's distributions are tax-exempt like the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds.

The Names Rule requires a fund with a name suggesting that the fund's distributions are exempt from Federal income tax or from both Federal and State income tax to adopt a fundamental policy to: (i) invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the value of its assets in investments the income from which is exempt, as applicable, from Federal income tax or from both Federal and State income tax; or (ii) invest, under normal circumstances, its assets so that at least 80% of the income that it distributes will be exempt, as applicable, from Federal income tax or from both Federal and State income tax.

Based on this Names Rule requirement, a tax-exempt fund (whether the fund includes the term tax-free, tax-exempt, or municipal in its name) may adopt either an asset-based 80% investment policy (i.e., based on the current values of holdings that are tax-exempt) **or** an income-based 80% investment policy (i.e., based on the tax-exempt income that will be distributed), but the Names Rule does not require both. However, many of the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds have adopted both an asset-based 80% investment policy **and** an income-based 80% investment policy, and several other 80% Investment Policy Change Funds have adopted just an income-based 80% investment policy. Industry standards for tax-exempt funds, regardless of whether their name includes the term tax-free, tax-exempt, or municipal, typically take one of two approaches to adopting 80% investment policies pursuant to the Names Rule: (i) a policy that is solely asset-based; or (ii) a policy that can be either asset-based or income-based. Tax-exempt funds prefer asset-based policies because they can be easily monitored for Names Rule compliance on a current basis, whereas monitoring income-based policies typically involves sourcing data from multiple systems and is based on future income. In addition, certain amendments to the Names Rule that will be going into effect could make monitoring and compliance even more challenging for funds with income-based policies.

As a result, the Boards recommend that shareholders take this opportunity to change the 80% investment policy for each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund to a policy that more closely aligns with industry standards, provides for solely asset-based monitoring, and specifically references municipal bonds and any other term in the Funds' new names that is in scope for the Names Rule. These revised 80% investment policies are not expected to result in any material changes to how the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds are managed. Whether or not the proposed changes to the 80% investment policies are approved by shareholders, the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds would be permitted to increase their exposure to bonds subject to the AMT as a result of the name changes (i.e., the flexibility to include bonds subject to AMT toward an 80% Investment Policy Change Fund's 80% basket due to "municipal" being added to the name) and approvals to eliminate the AMT-related operating policies. T. Rowe Price and the Boards believe that shareholders will benefit from changes to the 80% investment policies through greater portfolio management flexibility, more closely aligning the policies with specific Names Rule requirements, aligning the policies with the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds' new names to avoid potential confusion in the marketplace, and reduced compliance risks by eliminating income-based policies in favor of asset-based policies for all 80% Investment Policy Change Funds.

The Names Rule requires a fund whose name suggests a focus on a particular type of investment or a geographic region to adopt a policy to invest at least 80% of the value of its assets in the type of investment or geographic region suggested by the fund's name. As a result, the term municipal and any specific state referenced in an 80% Investment Policy Change Fund's name are in scope for the Names Rule and either or both of these terms are appropriately included in the recommended revised 80% investment policies.

Typically, the term "high yield" is in scope for the Names Rule and requires the adoption of an 80% investment policy relating to below investment-grade corporate bonds. Under current SEC guidance, funds that use the term "high-yield" in conjunction with the term "municipal," "tax-exempt," or similar in their names are not required to invest at least 80% in below investment-grade municipal securities in recognition that the market for below investment-grade municipal bonds is smaller and relatively less liquid than its taxable counterpart. As a result, the T. Rowe Price Intermediate Tax-Free High Yield Fund (to be renamed the T. Rowe Price Intermediate High Yield Municipal Bond Fund) and the T. Rowe Price Tax-Free High Yield Fund (to be renamed the T. Rowe Price High Yield Municipal Bond Fund) are seeking to adopt 80% investment policies relating to municipal bonds but not to high yield or below investment-grade bonds. The inclusion of such terms in the policy would unnecessarily constrain portfolio management and increase these Funds' risk profile for shareholders.

There are also certain 80% Investment Policy Change Funds that reference "total assets" instead of "net assets" (the Names Rule defines "assets" to mean net assets plus the amounts of any borrowings for investment purposes), reference "investment-grade" even though it is not in scope for the Names Rule, and have a higher investment threshold than 80% as part of their policy. We seek to revise these policies to remove unnecessary terms and update terms that will bring the policies more in line with specific Names Rule requirements.

Finally, we believe it is prudent to include the term "regular" as a modifier before the term "federal income taxes" in the policies. Many other tax-exempt funds with municipal in their name take a similar approach to constructing their 80% investment policies, and we believe that including this additional term may make it clearer to the marketplace that bonds subject to AMT may be included toward compliance with each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund's revised policy.

For the reasons set forth above, the Boards are seeking your approval to change the 80% investment policy applicable to each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund as follows (the new name that will become effective on August 1, 2026 for each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund is included for reference):

The Boards considered all relevant factors, including the potential impact of the proposal on the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds and their shareholders. Following consideration of these matters, the Boards unanimously approved the proposed change to the 80% investment policy for each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund.

**Effective Date for the Changes**

If the proposal is approved by shareholders of an 80% Investment Policy Change Fund at the Shareholder Meeting or at a subsequent shareholder meeting due to any adjournments or postponements, the change to the 80% investment policy is expected to become effective for all 80% Investment Policy Change Funds that have received shareholder approval on or about August 1, 2026. Consistent with the effective date of the change, each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund's prospectus and SAI will be revised accordingly.

**The Boards of the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds, including the 80% Investment Policy Change Funds' independent directors, recommend that shareholders of each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund vote FOR the proposal to change each 80% Investment Policy Change Fund's policy to the new 80% investment policy that has been approved by the Boards.**

**PROPOSAL NO. 3 – AMT Fundamental Policy Elimination**

**Summary of Proposed Changes**

At a meeting on March 11, 2026, the Boards approved submitting a proposal to shareholders to eliminate the AMT fundamental policy for each AMT Policy Change Fund. At the same meeting, the Boards approved other changes described below (some of which do not require shareholder approval) that impact each AMT Policy Change Fund:

● **Name Changes.** Each AMT Policy Change Fund currently references either "tax-free" or "tax-exempt" in its name. The Boards approved changing these terms to "municipal" to better align with industry standards and provide more investment flexibility.

● **Elimination of AMT Operating Policy.** The T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Income Fund and T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund currently have an operating policy that prohibits or limits investments in bonds subject to AMT. These operating policies will be eliminated, effective May 1, 2026, allowing for greater flexibility.

Although these AMT operating policies will be eliminated for the T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund and T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Income Fund, each AMT Policy Change Fund (including the T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund and T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Income Fund) is subject to a fundamental policy that allows only up 20% of income to be derived from securities subject to AMT. The name changes will take effect for each AMT Policy Change Fund on August 1, 2026, regardless of whether shareholders approve the proposed elimination of the AMT fundamental policy.

**Reasons for the AMT Policy Elimination**

As a result of the name changes, the AMT Policy Change Funds will no longer require a 20% limit on bonds subject to AMT because funds with "municipal" in their name can count AMT bonds toward compliance with their 80% investment policy. T. Rowe Price believes that being able to invest more in AMT bonds, when appropriate, could add value for shareholders without increasing overall risk, although portfolio managers will still carefully manage AMT exposure.

Other key points regarding the proposal include:

● The policy elimination will better align with the policies of other "municipal" funds once the new names become effective.

● The policy elimination would provide the potential to generate better performance with minimal impact on overall duration or credit risk.

● The changes are not expected to materially affect how the AMT Policy Change Funds are managed but will give portfolio managers more flexibility and better align with industry standards.

● If approved, portfolio managers would still appropriately limit the amount of AMT exposure based on market conditions and AMT policies.

**More Detailed Information about the Proposed Changes**

At the March 11, 2026 meeting where the Boards approved submitting the AMT fundamental policy elimination proposal to shareholders for approval, the Boards also approved a change to the name of each AMT Policy Change Fund, as well as the elimination of an operating policy applicable to the T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund that prohibits purchases of bonds subject to AMT and an operating policy applicable to the T. Rowe Price Tax-Free Income Fund that limits purchases of bonds subject to AMT to less than 20%. The name changes and elimination of the AMT operating policies require only Board approval and do not also require shareholder approval.

However, each AMT Policy Change Fund is subject to a fundamental policy that allows only up 20% of an AMT Policy Change Fund's income to be derived from securities subject to AMT, even though such a policy is not required to be a fundamental policy under the 1940 Act. The Boards have approved eliminating this AMT fundamental policy, which will also require shareholder approval. Regardless of whether shareholder approval is successfully obtained to change the AMT fundamental policy for each AMT Policy Change Fund, the name changes will become effective on August 1, 2026, and the elimination of the AMT operating policies will become effective on May 1, 2026.

Each AMT Policy Change Fund currently includes either the term "tax-free" or "tax-exempt" in its name. Across the industry, however, T. Rowe Price's research shows that the term "municipal" has become the dominant naming convention for funds that focus their investments in tax-exempt investments such as municipal bonds. As a result, the Boards have approved changing the AMT Policy Change Funds' names to replace "tax-free" and "tax-exempt" with "municipal" in an effort to better align with industry naming standards and provide increased investment flexibility. This increased investment flexibility results in part from current SEC guidance, which does not allow funds that use the term "tax-exempt" or "tax-free" in their names to count securities that generate income subject to the AMT toward their 80% investment requirement pursuant to the Names Rule, whereas funds that use the term "municipal" are permitted to count such securities toward their 80% investment requirement.

Most of the AMT Policy Change Funds currently invest in AMT Bonds to varying degrees. However, notwithstanding the AMT fundamental policy, the current names of the AMT Policy Change Funds create an implied 20% limit on AMT bonds due to their inability to include any AMT bonds toward their 80% investment policy. The name changes alone would offer the flexibility to invest greater than 20% in AMT bonds regardless of whether the proposed 80% investment policy change is also approved by shareholders, but that increased flexibility cannot be realized without the corresponding elimination of the AMT fundamental policy.

Many bonds that are subject to AMT currently offer a yield advantage over bonds that are not subject to AMT, even though the bonds tend to have similar features and risk profiles. T. Rowe Price believes that an increased allocation to AMT bonds, where appropriate, could be an additional source of alpha for the AMT Policy Change Funds with little added duration and no increase in overall credit risk. If the proposal to eliminate the AMT fundamental policy is approved by shareholders, the AMT Policy Change Funds' portfolio managers intend to appropriately limit the amount of AMT exposure based on the particular strategy and market conditions, including monitoring the yield advantage that may be available through AMT bonds and any changes to tax laws or policies that could impact shareholders. In addition, there are only certain sectors of the municipal market that issue bonds subject to AMT, and T. Rowe Price strives to manage the AMT Policy Change Funds to be diversified across many sectors when possible, so T. Rowe Price believes it would be impractical for any AMT Policy Change Funds to have significant allocations to AMT bonds even with the fundamental policy elimination.

T. Rowe Price's research shows that most competitor funds with "municipal" in their name do not have similar policies that limit AMT exposure. Notably, the T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Income Fund and T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Intermediate Fund (as well as all T. Rowe Exchange-Traded Funds with "municipal" in their name) have never been subject to any fundamental policy or operating policy restrictions on AMT and are permitted to invest without limit in AMT bonds even though such exposure has rarely exceeded 20%. Although the AMT Policy Change Funds may increase their exposure to AMT bonds as a result of the name changes, T. Rowe Price believes that the AMT Policy Change Funds will be at a competitive disadvantage if they are required to continue to limit overall AMT exposure to 20%, which could constrain portfolio management and be detrimental to shareholders. Even if the AMT Policy Change Funds are ultimately able to increase their overall investments in AMT bonds above 20%, such increase is not anticipated to materially impact the portion of any AMT Policy Change Fund's overall tax-exempt dividends it distributes that would be subject to AMT. The AMT Policy Change Funds' portfolio managers would remain mindful of any future shifts in governmental policy or tax law changes that would make increased investments in AMT bonds less desirable for shareholders, including those shareholders who are subject to the AMT.

As a result, the Boards recommend that shareholders take this opportunity to eliminate the AMT fundamental policy for each AMT Policy Change Fund to more closely align with industry standards. The elimination of the AMT fundamental policy is not expected to result in any material changes to how the AMT Policy Change Funds are managed. T. Rowe Price and the Boards believe that shareholders will benefit from the elimination of the AMT fundamental policy through increased portfolio management flexibility, the potential to generate better performance, and more closely aligning with the AMT Policy Change Funds' new names and policies and practices of similar funds in the marketplace.

For the reasons set forth above, the Boards are seeking your approval to eliminate the AMT fundamental policy applicable to each AMT Policy Change Fund. The Boards considered all relevant factors, including the potential impact of the proposal on the AMT Policy Change Funds and their shareholders. Following consideration of these matters, the Boards unanimously approved the proposed elimination of the AMT fundamental policy for each AMT Policy Change Fund.

**Effective Date for the Changes**

If the proposal is approved by shareholders of an AMT Policy Change Fund at the Shareholder Meeting or at a subsequent shareholder meeting due to any adjournments or postponements, the change to the AMT fundamental policy is expected to become effective for all AMT Policy Change Funds that have received shareholder approval on or about August 1, 2026. Consistent with the effective date of the change, each AMT Policy Change Fund's prospectus and SAI will be revised accordingly.

**The Boards of the AMT Policy Change Funds, including the AMT Policy Change Funds' independent directors, recommend that shareholders of each AMT Policy Change Fund vote FOR the proposal to eliminate each AMT Policy Change Fund's fundamental policy that currently limits the ability to invest in securities subject to the AMT.**

FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT VOTING AND THE SHAREHOLDER MEETING

**What is the required quorum?**

To hold a shareholder meeting for the Funds, one-third of a Fund's shares entitled to be voted must have been received by proxy or be present at the meeting. In the event that a quorum is present but sufficient votes in favor of a proposal are not received by the Shareholder Meeting date, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments to permit further solicitation of proxies. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present at the Shareholder Meeting or by proxy at the Shareholder Meeting to be adjourned. Shares voted against a proposal will be voted against the proposed adjournment. The persons named as proxies will vote in favor of such adjournment if they determine that additional solicitation is reasonable and in the interests of a Fund's shareholders.

**How are the votes counted?**

The individuals named as proxies (or their substitutes) on the enclosed proxy card (or cards, if you have multiple Funds or accounts) will vote according to your directions if your proxy is received properly executed, or in accordance with your instructions given when voting online or by telephone. If you properly execute your proxy card and give no voting instructions, or submit your vote online or by telephone without voting instructions, your shares will be voted FOR the proposal.

Abstentions and "broker nonvotes" are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum has been achieved for purposes of convening the Shareholder Meeting. Broker nonvotes are shares held by a broker or nominee for which an executed proxy is received by the Fund but are not voted as to one or more proposals because instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote, and the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power. Because the proposals must be approved by a percentage of voting securities that have been received by proxy or present at the Shareholder Meeting, or a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares, abstentions and broker nonvotes will be considered to be voting securities that are present and will have the effect of being counted as votes against the applicable proposal.

For shares of a Fund held in an Individual Retirement Account ("**IRA**") or Coverdell education savings account ("**ESA**") that is sponsored by T. Rowe Price Trust Company and for which T. Rowe Price Trust Company serves as custodian, T. Rowe Price Trust Company shall, without written direction from the investor, vote shares for which no voting instructions are timely received in the same proportion as shares for which voting instructions from other shareholders are timely received. In cases where another T. Rowe Price sponsored mutual fund owns shares of one or more of the Funds, T. Rowe Price as the investing fund's investment adviser, will mirror vote the Fund's shares held by the investing fund in the same proportion as shares for which voting instructions from other shareholders of the Fund are property and timely received.

For shares of the T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Portfolio held by insurance company separate accounts for which the insurance company has not received timely voting instructions, as well as shares the insurance company owns, those shares shall be voted in the same proportion as shares for which voting instructions from other contract holders are timely received.

**Can additional matters be acted upon at the Shareholder Meeting?**

T. Rowe Price knows of no other business that may come before the Shareholder Meeting. However, if any additional matters are properly presented at the Shareholder Meeting, it is intended that the persons named in the enclosed proxy, or their substitutes, will vote on such matters in accordance with their judgment.

**Can I change my vote after I mail my proxy?**

Any proxy, including those given online or by telephone, may be revoked at any time before the votes have been submitted for tabulation at the Shareholder Meeting by filing a written notice of revocation with a Fund, by delivering a properly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the Shareholder Meeting and voting. If you vote via telephone or online, you can change your vote up until 7:59 a.m. ET on June 25, 2026.

**Are the Funds required to hold annual meetings?**

Under Maryland law, the Funds are not required to hold annual meetings of shareholders. The Boards have determined that the Funds will avoid the significant expenses associated with holding an annual meeting of shareholders, including legal, accounting, printing, and mailing fees incurred in preparing proxy materials. Accordingly, no annual meeting of shareholders shall be held in any year in which a meeting is not otherwise required to be held under the 1940 Act or Maryland law, unless the Boards determine otherwise. However, special meetings of shareholders will be held in accordance with applicable law or when otherwise determined by the Boards.

If a shareholder wishes to present a proposal to be included in a proxy statement for a subsequent shareholder meeting, the proposal must be submitted in writing and received by Fran Pollack-Matz, Secretary of the Funds, 1307 Point Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21231, within a reasonable time before a Fund begins to print and mail its proxy materials for the meeting. The timely submission of a proposal does not guarantee its consideration at a shareholder meeting.

**How are proxies delivered and votes recorded?**

This Proxy Statement was mailed along with a proxy voting card and prepaid envelope. You may record your votes on the enclosed proxy card and mail it in the accompanying prepaid envelope to Proxy Tabulator, P.O. Box 43131, Providence, RI 02940-3131. Any mailed proxies sent to this address will be delivered to Computershare Fund Services ("**Computershare**"), which T. Rowe Price has retained to tabulate the votes. In addition, the Funds have arranged through Computershare to have votes recorded online or by telephone. The online and telephone voting procedures are reasonably designed to authenticate shareholders' identities, to allow shareholders to authorize the voting of their shares in accordance with their instructions, and to confirm that their instructions have been properly recorded. Computershare is also responsible for assisting T. Rowe Price in determining whether quorum is achieved for a particular Fund and whether sufficient votes are received to approve a proposal.

Some shareholders will not automatically receive a copy of this entire Proxy Statement in the mail, but will instead receive a notice that informs them of how to access all of the proxy materials on a publicly available website (commonly referred to as "notice and access"). Shareholders who receive such a notice will not be able to return the notice to have their vote recorded. However, they can access the proxy materials at <u>www.proxydirect.com/trp-34974</u> to vote eligible shares or may use the instructions on the notice to request a paper or email copy of the proxy materials at no charge.

The SEC has adopted rules that permit investment companies, such as the Funds, and intermediaries to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those shareholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as "householding," could result in extra convenience and cost savings for the Funds and their shareholders. Unless a Fund has received contrary instructions, only one copy of this Proxy Statement will be mailed to two or more shareholders who share an address. If you need additional copies, do not want your mailings to be "householded," or would like to request a single copy if multiple copies are being received, please call 1-800-225-5132 or write us at P.O. Box 17630, Baltimore, Maryland 21297-1630.

**How can proxies be solicited?**

Directors and officers of a Fund, or employees of T. Rowe Price (and its affiliates) may solicit proxies by mail, in-person, electronically (assuming that applicable requirements are met), or by telephone. In the event that votes are solicited by telephone, shareholders would be called at the telephone number T. Rowe Price has in its records for their accounts, and would be asked for certain identifying information, such as their address. The shareholders would then be given an opportunity to authorize proxies to vote their shares at the Shareholder Meeting in accordance with their instructions. To ensure that shareholders' instructions have been recorded correctly, confirmation of the instructions is also mailed and a special toll-free number provided in case the information contained in the confirmation is incorrect.

To help ensure that sufficient shares are represented at the Shareholder Meeting to permit approval of the proposals outlined in the Proxy Statement, the Funds will also use the solicitation services of Computershare to assist them in soliciting proxies.

**Who pays for the costs involved with the proxy?**

For managing the Funds' overall proxy campaign, Computershare will receive a fee plus reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses. Computershare will also receive fees in connection with the printing, preparing, assembling, mailing, and transmitting of proxy materials on behalf of the Funds, tabulating those votes that are received, and any solicitation of additional votes. The fees received by Computershare will vary by Fund based on the number of accounts and proxy statements that need to be prepared and delivered and the level of solicitation necessary to achieve quorum and obtain shareholder approval. In addition to the fees paid to Computershare, additional fees will be incurred in connection with delivery and tabulation relating to financial intermediaries, and securities brokers, custodians, fiduciaries, and other persons holding shares as nominees will be reimbursed, upon request, for their reasonable expenses in sending solicitation materials to the principals of the accounts.

All costs of the Shareholder Meeting and the proxy campaign, including the use of Computershare and the reimbursement to others for solicitation and the preparation and delivery of proxy materials, will be charged to each Fund generally in proportion to the number of proxy statements and level of solicitation. However, such expenses will ultimately be borne by T. Rowe Price for any Funds that have an all-inclusive fee that includes proxy expenses or are operating above a contractual expense limitation.

The total fees for these services, including printing, postage, tabulation and solicitation services, are estimated for each Fund as follows:
