1 Fidelity VIP Real Estate Portfolio Key Takeaways The fund's share classes gained about 2% for the semiannual reporting period ending June 30, 2017, outperforming the Dow Jones U.S. Select Real Estate Securities Index SM, which gained 1.36%. Although the U.S. real estate investment trust (REIT) market benefited this period from generally favorable supply and demand characteristics, investors tended to favor faster-growing equities to steadier, income-oriented securities. Versus the Dow Jones index, the fund was helped the most by strong security selection across several categories, as well as a significant underweighting among retail REITs. Stock picking in this latter category, however, curbed results. During the period, Portfolio Manager Samuel Wald reduced the fund's exposure to the retail REIT sector, which he saw as facing a number of long-term challenges not likely to ease. At period end, amid generally healthy economic conditions and real estate fundamentals, Sam is maintaining his patient, diversified approach to managing the portfolio, paying close attention to both near- and long-term opportunity. MARKET RECAP The U.S. equity bellwether S&P 500 index returned 9.34% for the six months ending June 30, 2017, gaining strongly to begin the new year on optimism for President Trump's probusiness agenda. Equity markets leveled off in March, however, as the fledgling administration faced the first test of its domestic agenda. The index reacted with uncertainty to efforts by Congress to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and then turned upward through June 30. In a stark reversal from 2016, growthoriented stocks handily topped their value counterparts for the first half of Among sectors, information technology (+17%) fared best, surging as a handful of major index constituents posted stellar returns. Health care (+16%) was close behind, climbing in February and again in the second quarter, following the ACA's reprieve. Meanwhile, consumer staples (+8%) and utilities (+9%) fell just shy of the broader market amid investors' general preference for risk assets. Financials (+7%) lagged because sentiment regarding the potential for deregulation and lower taxes faded as the White House turned its attention to other initiatives. Rising interest rates hurt real estate (+6%) and dividend-rich telecommunication services (-11%), the latter of which was further hampered by increased competition. Lastly, lower oil prices sent energy (-13%) to the bottom of the sector performance rankings. Not FDIC Insured May Lose Value No Bank Guarantee

2 Q&A An interview with Portfolio Manager Samuel Wald Fund Facts Samuel Wald Portfolio Manager Start Date: November 06, 2002 Size (in millions): $ Investment Approach Fidelity VIP Real Estate Portfolio seeks above-average income and long-term capital growth, consistent with reasonable investment risk, by investing in securities of companies that own and, in most cases, operate commercial real estate properties. Investment in real estate securities has the potential to provide portfolio diversification, consistent income generation and the ability to outpace inflation. We believe real estate investment trusts (REITs) represent a balance between real estate and stocks, and that recognizing attributes of both is key to identifying opportunities to outperform. Through rigorous bottom-up research from both Fidelity's dedicated real estate team and the firm's broader research resources, we strive to add value through security selection within a disciplined risk framework. Our process seeks to determine the relative attractiveness of individual REITs and will try to take advantage of pricing discrepancies in the market. Q: Sam, how did the portfolio perform for the semiannual period ending June 30, 2017 The fund's share classes finished the period up about 2%, outpacing the 1.36% increase in the benchmark Dow Jones U.S. Select Real Estate Securities Index SM. The broader U.S. stock market, as measured by the S&P 500 index, was up 9.34%. The fund modestly lagged its peer group average. Compared with the Dow Jones index, the fund benefited from strong security selection across several categories. A significant underweighting in the retail real estate investment trust (REIT) category also added value, although stock picking here limited some of the upside. Although we normally focus on bottom-up stock picking, we view the long-term challenges in retail real estate as significant enough to warrant less exposure to this category. Looking out a bit further, for the 12 months ending June 30, the fund's share classes returned about -2% to -3%, about in line with the Dow Jones index, ahead of the peer group average, and falling well short of the S&P 500. Q: How would you describe the investment environment over the past six months REITs were up and down throughout the six months, even as their share prices remained in a narrow trading range. Although the market benefited this period from a generally solid supply/demand backdrop with a few notable exceptions investors often seemed more attracted to high-flying growth equities rather than their steadier, income-oriented counterparts, including REITs. Against this backdrop, I continued to stick to my investment philosophy, as I do in all kinds of market conditions. My approach starts with the recognition that REITs are a balance of stocks and real estate, behaving more like the former in the short term and more like the latter over longer periods. REITs are like stocks in that a portfolio manager can add value by correctly predicting earnings surprises, which correlate to short-term moves in the securities' prices. Longer-term, a manager can boost returns by concentrating on the value of a REIT's underlying assets 2 For definitions, fund risks and other important information, please see the Definitions and Important Information section of this Q&A.

3 and comparing that value to where the stock might be trading on any given day. This focus on the underlying assets provides an anchor point for my colleagues and me as we determine how REITs should be priced, allowing us to avoid getting sidetracked by day-to-day news. Second, my process involves in-depth research. With the help of Fidelity's highly capable team of analysts, we determine the relative attractiveness of individual REITs for the fund and will often take advantage of significant pricing discrepancies we see in the marketplace. Lastly, I generally believe that individual security selection and not sector allocation or market timing can provide the best opportunity for outperformance over time. Stock picking historically has been where I've had the most success during my career as both a portfolio manager and analyst. Q: What about managing risk Managing risk is a vital part of my approach. I think it's important to monitor risk every day, not simply react to unexpected challenges as they occur. I regularly review the portfolio's risk parameters to help establish and maintain appropriate position sizes and sector weightings, so as to try to make stock selection the primary driver of the fund's relative performance. I also try to limit unintended sources of risk, such as geographic or market-cap concentration, to try to reduce the fund's unintended outcomes. Of final note, I take part in quarterly meetings at Fidelity to review what went right in the portfolio and how we might replicate it, along with what went wrong and how best to strive to avoid it in the future. Q: Relative to the benchmark, which stocks especially influenced results this period As I mentioned, retail REITs struggled, and I significantly cut back the fund's exposure to the sector. In light of the category's challenges, the fund benefited from not owning a number of poor-performing benchmark components, especially Kimco Realty and Macerich. That said, retail remains a relatively large stake in the index, and we did maintain exposure to specific companies, even as we continued to underweight the sector. In the group, our relative overweights in DDR and Urban Edge Properties were notable detractors. Elsewhere, the fund benefited from out-of-benchmark holdings in data-center REITs CoreSite Realty and Equinix, both of which benefited from continued strong demand for specialized facilities to handle the growing need for data storage. However, we lacked exposure to benchmark component DuPont Fabros Technology, which in June agreed to be acquired at a premium by its larger competitor, Digital Realty Trust, a strong performer that we underweighted and did not hold at all at period end. Among industrial REITs, which have benefited from the global shift toward e-commerce and the corresponding demand for warehouse facilities, the fund's large overweighting in DCT Industrial Trust contributed to results. Tempering that contribution, however, was our meaningful underexposure to the largest industrial REIT, Prologis, whose risk/reward trade-off we found less appealing than DCT's and that of various other competitors. Q: Any closing thoughts, Sam As we significantly reduced the fund's retail-sector exposure, we redeployed the assets across several other categories. As a result of our bottom-up moves, we added exposure to the industrial sector, as demand has been increasing for specialized warehouse facilities. The fund's health care REIT allocation grew, partly reflecting my view that a number of stocks in the category may have become oversold in light of uncertainty surrounding possible Obamacare repeal. In addition, with supply increasing in the self-storage group, I saw better opportunity elsewhere and trimmed the fund's stake there. As of June 30, we are very far along in the current real estate cycle, now eight years or more in duration. As analysts and fund managers, our job is to worry about what could potentially go wrong, and we logically have more concerns in year eight of the cycle than we did in year two. Potential risks could include overly restrictive monetary policy from the Federal Reserve or concerns that getting close to full employment could affect demand for future offices or apartments. Despite these risks, the U.S. economy appears healthy today, while the supply/demand balance for real estate remains solid across most property types and geographic markets, with a few notable exceptions. In this environment, we continue to maintain a patient, diversified approach to managing the portfolio, with an eye solidly focused on both near-term opportunity and long-term trends. 3 For definitions, fund risks and other important information, please see the Definitions and Important Information section of this Q&A.

4 LARGEST CONTRIBUTORS VS. BENCHMARK Sam Wald on his approach to the retail REIT sector: "My investment strategy focuses on individual security selection, so I don't normally make topdown changes to the fund's sector allocations. But in recent months, I've made an exception with respect to the retail REIT sector. My decision to cut exposure here is based on my belief that retail real estate is facing some significant long-term headwinds. "I see at least four main long-term challenges weighing on the sector. First, in the U.S., we have significantly more retail space per capita than any other country in the world, meaning an adjustment could be in our future. Second, various retail tenants have already experienced bankruptcies this year, and with competition from e-commerce growing, this trend could continue or accelerate. Third, department stores have traditionally been big draws for malls, but many of these retailers are experiencing massive problems in their businesses, and the market has been speculating about additional possible bankruptcies. Lastly, millennials and younger generations appear to be more interested in accumulating experiences than things, and they are especially comfortable with the efficiency of online shopping two trends that are negative omens for retailers. "All told, I see the difficulties in retail as a series of big long-term challenges rather than short-term obstacles, and good reasons to stay underweight the sector."

6 PERFORMANCE SUMMARY Variable annuity contracts are issued by insurance companies through separate accounts that are part of the insurer. The value of a variable annuity contract depends on the values of units of subaccounts of the separate account. Each subaccount purchases shares of a corresponding mutual fund. Subaccount investment performance is based on the performance of the mutual fund in which it invests, less insurance company charges made against the assets of the separate account. A subaccount is not a mutual fund. The information provided in this Performance Summary contains performance information for the fund, or class, and each variable subaccount, with comparisons over different time periods to the fund's relevant benchmarks including an appropriate index as well as a group of similar funds whose average returns are compiled and monitored by an independent mutual fund research company. Figures for more than one year assume a steady compounded rate of return and are not a class' year-by-year results, which fluctuated over the periods shown. Fund performance numbers are net of all underlying fund operating expenses, but do not include any insurance charges imposed by your insurance company's separate account. If fund performance information included the effect of these additional charges, the total returns would have been lower. The performance table also contains performance information for certain insurance company subaccounts that invest in the fund. Each variable subaccount's performance, as shown, is net of all fees and expenses, including those charges imposed by your insurance company. Seeing the returns over different time periods can help you assess the performance against relevant measurements and across multiple market environments. The performance information includes average annual total returns and cumulative total returns and is further explained in this section.* Investing in a variable annuity involves risk of loss investment returns, contract value, and, for variable income annuities, payment amounts are not guaranteed and will fluctuate. Withdrawals of taxable amounts from an annuity are subject to ordinary income tax, and, if taken before age 59 1/2, may be subject to a 10% IRS penalty. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted below. An investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
