International
Funds,
Inc. (the

registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940
(the
1940
Act).
The
Global
High
Income
Bond
Fund
(the
fund)
is a
diversified, open-end
management
investment
company
established
by
the
corporation. The
fund
seeks
high
income
and,
secondarily,
capital
appreciation.
The
fund
has three classes
of
shares:
the
Global
High
Income
Bond
Fund
(Investor
Class),
the
Global
High
Income
Bond
Fund–
Advisor
Class
(Advisor
Class)
and
the
Global
High
Income
Bond
Fund–I
Class
(I
Class).
Advisor
Class
shares
are
sold
only
through
various
brokers
and
other
financial
intermediaries.
I
Class
shares
require
a
$500,000
initial
investment
minimum,
although
the
minimum
generally
is
waived
or
reduced
for
financial
intermediaries,
eligible
retirement
plans,
and
certain
other
accounts.
The
Advisor
Class
operates
under
a
Board-approved
Rule
12b-1
plan
pursuant
to
which
the
class
compensates
financial
intermediaries
for
distribution,
shareholder
servicing,
and/or
certain
administrative
services;
the
Investor
and
I
Classes
do
not
pay
Rule
12b-1
fees. Each
class
has
exclusive
voting
rights
on
matters
related
solely
to
that
class;
separate
voting
rights
on
matters
that
relate
to
all
classes;
and,
in
all
other
respects,
the
same
rights
and
obligations

the
other
classes.

SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Basis
of
Preparation
The fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946
(ASC
946).
The
accompanying
financial
statements
were
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(GAAP),
including,
but
not
limited
to,
ASC
946.
GAAP
requires
the
use
of
estimates
made
by
management.
Management
believes
that
estimates
and
valuations
are
appropriate;
however,
actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates,
and
the
valuations
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
may
differ
from
the
value
ultimately
realized
upon
sale
or
maturity.
Investment
Transactions,
Investment
Income,
and
Distributions
Investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
basis.
Income
and
expenses
are
recorded
on
the
accrual
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
are
reported
on
the
identified
cost
basis. Premiums
and
discounts
on
debt
securities
are
amortized
for
financial
reporting
purposes. Income
tax-related
interest
and
penalties,
if
incurred,
are
recorded
as
income
tax
expense. Dividends
received
T.
ROWE

Global

from other
investment
companies are
reflected
as
dividend income;
capital
gain
distributions
are
reflected
as

income and
capital
gain
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date. Earnings
on
investments
recognized
as
partnerships
for
federal
income
tax
purposes
reflect
the

character
of
such

as
the

Subject

are
performed
by
its

on
valuation
matters.
Various
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
are
used
to
determine
the
fair

of
financial

GAAP
establishes
the

implied
volatilities,
and
credit
spreads)
Level
3
–
unobservable
inputs
(including
the Valuation
Designee’s assumptions
in
determining
fair
value)
Observable
inputs
are
developed
using
market
data,
such
as
publicly
available
information
about
actual
events
or
transactions,
and
reflect
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
Unobservable
inputs

which

GAAP
requires
valuation
techniques
to
maximize
the
use
of
relevant
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs.
When
multiple
inputs
are
used
to
derive
fair
value,
the
financial
instrument
is
assigned
to
the
level
within
the
fair
value
hierarchy
based
on
the
lowest-level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
of
the
financial
instrument.
Input
levels
are
not

an
indication

the
risk

liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level
but
rather
the
degree
of

used
in

Valuation
Techniques
Debt
securities
generally
are
traded
in
the over-the-
counter
(OTC)
market
and
are
valued
at
prices
furnished
by
independent
pricing
services
or
by
broker

who
make

When
valuing
securities,
the

services
consider
factors
such
as,
but
not
limited
to,
the
yield
or
price
of
bonds
of
comparable

The

Designee
has
adopted
methodologies

value
of
investments
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable,
including
the
use

sources.
Factors
used
in
determining
fair
value
vary
by
type
of
investment
and
may
include
market
or
investment
specific
considerations.
The
Valuation
Designee typically
will
afford
greatest
weight
to
actual
prices
in
arm’s
length
transactions,
to
the
extent
they
represent

between
market
participants,
transaction
information
can
be
reliably
obtained,
and
prices
are
deemed
representative
of
fair
value.
However,
the
Valuation
Designee may
also
consider
other
valuation
methods
such
as
market-based
valuation
multiples;
a

from

some
combination.
Fair

Because
any

DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS
During
the
six
months ended
June
30,
2024,
the
fund
invested
in
derivative
instruments.
As
defined
by
GAAP,
a
derivative
is
a
financial
instrument
whose
value
is
derived
from
an
underlying
security
price,
foreign
exchange
rate,
interest
rate,
index
of
prices
or
rates,
or
other
variable;
it
requires
little
or
no
initial
investment
and
permits
or
requires
net
settlement.
The
fund
invests
in
derivatives
only
if
the
expected
risks
and
rewards
are
consistent
with
its
investment
objectives,
policies,
and
overall
risk
profile,
as
described
in
its
prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
The
fund
may
use
derivatives
for
a
variety
of
purposes
and
may
use
them
to
establish
both
long
and
short
positions
within
the
fund’s
portfolio.
Potential
uses
include
to
hedge
against
declines
in
principal
value,
increase
yield,
invest
in
an
asset
with
greater

is
possible

The
risks
associated
with
the
use
of
derivatives
are

and
potentially
much
greater
than,
the
risks
associated
with
investing
directly
in
the
instruments
on
which
the
derivatives
are
based.
The
fund
values
its
derivatives
at
fair
value
and
recognizes
changes
in
fair
value
currently
in
its
results
of
operations.
Accordingly,
the
fund
does
not
follow
hedge
accounting,
even
for
derivatives
employed
as
economic
hedges.
Generally,
the
fund
accounts
for
its
derivatives
on
a
gross
basis.
It
does
not
offset
the
fair
value
of
derivative
liabilities
against
the
fair
value
of
derivative
assets
on

financial
statements,
nor
does

offset
the
fair

of
derivative
instruments
against
the
right
to

or

to
return
collateral.

and
the

on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Operations
is
summarized
in
the
following
table
by
primary
underlying
risk
exposure:
Counterparty
Risk
and
Collateral
The
fund
invests
in
derivatives,
such
as
non-cleared
bilateral
swaps,
forward
currency
exchange
contracts,
and/or
OTC
options,
that
are
transacted
and
settle
directly
with
a
counterparty
(bilateral
derivatives),
and
thereby
may
expose
the
fund
to
counterparty
risk.
To
mitigate
this
risk,
the
fund
has
entered
into
master
netting
arrangements
(MNAs)
with
certain
counterparties
that
permit
net
settlement
under
specified
conditions
and,
for
certain
counterparties,
also
require
the
exchange
of
collateral
to
cover
mark-to-market
exposure.
MNAs
may
be
in
the
form
of
International
Swaps
and
Derivatives
Association
master
agreements
(ISDAs)
or
foreign
exchange
letter
agreements
(FX
letters).
MNAs
govern
the
ability
to
offset
amounts
the
fund
owes
a
counterparty
against
amounts
the
counterparty
owes
the
fund
(net
settlement).
Both
ISDAs
and
FX
letters
generally
allow
termination
of
transactions
and
net
settlement
upon
the
occurrence
of
contractually
specified
events,
such
as
failure
to
pay
or
bankruptcy.
In
addition,
ISDAs
specify
other
events,
the
occurrence
of
which
would
allow
one
of
the
parties
to
terminate.
For
example,
a
downgrade
in
credit
rating
of
a
counterparty
below
a
specified
rating
would
allow
the
fund
to
terminate,
while
a

Upon
termination,
all
transactions
with
that
counterparty
would
be
liquidated
and
a
net
termination
amount
determined.
ISDAs
typically
include
collateral
agreements
whereas
FX
letters
do
not.
Collateral
requirements
are
determined
daily
based
on
the
net
aggregate
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
all
bilateral
derivatives
with
each
counterparty,
subject
to
minimum
transfer
amounts
that
typically
range
from
$100,000
to
$250,000.
Any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
typically
transferred
the
next
business
day.
Collateral may
be
in
the
form
of
cash
or
debt
securities
issued
by
the
U.S.
government
or
related
agencies,
although
other
securities
may
be
used
depending
on
the
terms
outlined
in
the
applicable
MNA.
Cash
posted
by
the
fund
is
reflected
as
cash
deposits
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
and
generally
is
restricted
from
withdrawal
by
the
fund;
securities
posted
by
the
fund
are
so
noted
in
the
accompanying
Portfolio
of
Investments;
both
remain
in
the
fund’s
assets.
Collateral
pledged
by
counterparties
is
not
included
in
the
fund’s
assets
because
the
fund
does
not
obtain
effective
control
over
those
assets.
For
bilateral
derivatives,
collateral
posted
or
received
by
the
fund
is
held
in
a
segregated
account
at
the
fund’s
custodian.
While
typically
not
sold
in
the
same
manner
as
equity
or
fixed
income
securities,
OTC
and
bilateral
derivatives
may
be
unwound
with
counterparties
or
transactions
assigned
to
other
counterparties
to
allow
the
fund
to
exit
the
transaction.
This
ability
is
subject
to
the
liquidity
of
underlying
positions. As
of
June
30,
2024,
no
collateral
had
been
posted
by
the
fund
to
counterparties
for
bilateral
derivatives. As
of
June
30,
2024,
collateral
pledged
by
counterparties
to
the
fund
for
bilateral
derivatives
consisted
of
securities
valued
at
$1,594,000.
Forward
Currency
Exchange
Contracts
The
fund
is
subject
to
foreign
currency
exchange
rate
risk
in
the
normal
course
of
pursuing
its
investment
objectives.
It may use
forward
currency
exchange
contracts
(forwards)
primarily
to
protect
its
non-U.S.
dollar-denominated
securities
from
adverse
currency
movements
or
to
increase
exposure
to
a
particular
foreign
currency,
to
shift
the
fund’s
foreign
currency
exposure
from
one
country
to
another,
or
to
enhance
the
fund’s
return.
A
forward
involves
an
obligation
to
purchase
or
sell
a
fixed
amount
of
a
specific
currency
on
a
future
date
at
a
price
set
at
the
time
of
the
contract.
Although
certain
forwards
may
be
settled
by
exchanging
only
the
net
gain
or
loss
on
the
contract,
most
forwards
are
settled
with
the
exchange
of
the
underlying
currencies
in
accordance
with
the
specified
terms.
Forwards

OTHER
INVESTMENT
TRANSACTIONS
Consistent
with
its
investment
objective, the
fund
engages
in
the
following
practices
to
manage
exposure
to
certain
risks
and/or
to
enhance
performance.
The
investment
objective,
policies,
program,
and
risk
factors
of the
fund
are
described
more
fully
in the
fund’s prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
Emerging
and
Frontier
Markets
The fund
invests,
either
directly
or
through
investments
in
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
in
securities
of
companies
located
in,
issued
by
governments
of,
or
denominated
in
or
linked
to
the
currencies
of
emerging
and
frontier
market
countries.
Emerging
markets,
and
to
a
greater
extent
frontier
markets, tend
to
have
economic
structures
that
are
less
diverse
and
mature,
less
developed
legal
and
regulatory
regimes,
and
political
systems
that
are
less
stable,
than
those
of
developed
countries.
These
markets
may
be
subject
to
greater
political,
economic,
and
social
uncertainty
and
differing
accounting
standards
and
regulatory
environments
that
may
potentially
impact
the
fund’s
ability
to
buy
or
sell
certain
securities
or
repatriate
proceeds
to
U.S.
dollars.
Emerging
markets
securities
exchanges
are
more
likely
to
experience
delays
with
the
clearing
and
settling
of
trades,
as
well
as
the
custody
of
holdings
by
local
banks,
agents,
and
depositories.
Such
securities
are
often
subject
to
greater
price
volatility,
less
liquidity,
and
higher
rates
of
inflation
than
U.S.
securities.
Investing
in
frontier
markets
is
typically
significantly
riskier
than
investing
in
other
countries,
including
emerging
markets.
Noninvestment-Grade
Debt
The
fund
invests,
either
directly
or
through
its
investment
in
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
in
noninvestment-grade
debt,
including
“high
yield”
or
“junk”
bonds
or
leveraged
loans.
Noninvestment-grade
debt
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Global
High
Income
Bond
Fund
issuers
are
more
likely
to
suffer
an
adverse
change
in
financial
condition
that
would
result
in
the
inability
to
meet
a
financial
obligation.
The
noninvestment-
grade
debt
market
may
experience
sudden
and
sharp
price
swings
due
to
a
variety
of
factors
that
may
decrease
the
ability
of
issuers
to
make
principal
and
interest
payments
and
adversely
affect
the
liquidity
or
value,
or
both,
of
such
securities.
Accordingly,
securities
issued
by
such
companies
carry
a
higher
risk
of
default
and
should
be
considered
speculative.
Restricted
Securities
The
fund
invests
in
securities
that
are
subject
to
legal
or
contractual
restrictions
on
resale.
Prompt
sale
of
such
securities
at
an
acceptable
price
may
be
difficult
and
may
involve
substantial
delays
and
additional
costs.
Bank
Loans
The
fund
invests
in
bank
loans,
which
represent
an
interest
in
amounts
owed
by
a
borrower
to
a
syndicate
of
lenders.
Bank
loans
are
generally
noninvestment
grade
and
often
involve
borrowers
whose
financial
condition
is
highly
leveraged.
The
fund
may
invest
in
fixed
and
floating
rate
loans,
which
may
include
senior
floating
rate
loans;
secured
and
unsecured
loans,
second
lien
or
more
junior
loans;
and
bridge
loans
or
bridge
facilities.
Certain
bank
loans
may
be
revolvers
which
are
a
form
of
senior
bank
debt,
where
the
borrower
can
draw
down
the
credit
of
the
revolver
when
it
needs
cash
and
repays
the
credit
when
the
borrower
has
excess
cash.
Certain
loans
may
be
“covenant-lite”
loans,
which
means
the
loans
contain
fewer
maintenance
covenants
than
other
loans
(in
some
cases,
none)
and
do
not
include
terms
which
allow
the
lender
to
monitor
the
performance
of
the
borrower
and
declare
a
default
if
certain
criteria
are
breached.
As
a
result
of
these
risks,
the
fund’s
exposure
to
losses
may
be
increased.
Bank
loans
may
be
in
the
form
of
either
assignments
or
participations.
A
loan
assignment
transfers
all
legal,
beneficial,
and
economic
rights
to
the
buyer,
and
transfer
typically
requires
consent
of
both
the
borrower
and
agent.
In
contrast,
a
loan
participation
generally
entitles
the
buyer
to
receive
the
cash
flows
from
principal,
interest,
and
any
fee
payments
on
a
portion
of
a
loan;
however,
the
seller
continues
to
hold
legal
title
to
that
portion
of
the
loan.
As
a
result,
the
buyer
of
a
loan
participation
generally
has
no
direct
recourse
against
the
borrower
and
is
exposed
to
credit
risk
of
both
the
borrower
and
seller
of
the
participation.
Bank
loans
often
have
extended
settlement
periods,
generally
may
be
repaid
at
any
time
at
the
option
of
the
borrower,
and
may
require
additional
principal
to
be
funded
at
the
borrowers’
discretion
at
a
later
date
(e.g.
unfunded
commitments
and
revolving
debt
instruments).
Until
settlement,
the
fund
maintains
liquid
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Global
High
Income
Bond
Fund
assets
sufficient
to
settle
its
unfunded

commitments.
The
fund
reflects
both
the
funded
portion
of
a
bank
loan
as
well
as
its
unfunded
commitment
in
the
Portfolio
of
Investments.
However,
if
a
credit
agreement
provides
no
initial

of
a
tranche,
and
funding
of
the
full
commitment
at
a
future
date(s)
is
at
the
borrower’s
discretion
and
considered
uncertain,
a
loan
is
reflected
in
the
Portfolio
of
Investments
only
if,
and
only
to
the
extent
that,
the
fund
has
actually
settled
a
funding
commitment.

FEDERAL
INCOME
TAXES
Generally,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
since
the
fund
intends
to continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
under
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
and
distribute
to
shareholders
all
of
its taxable
income
and
gains.
Distributions
determined
in
accordance
with
federal
income
tax
regulations
may
differ
in
amount
or
character
from
net
investment
income
and
realized
gains
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Financial
reporting
records
are
adjusted
for
permanent
book/tax
differences
to
reflect
tax
character
but
are
not
adjusted
for
temporary
differences.
The
amount
and
character
of
tax-basis
distributions
and
composition
of
net
assets
are
finalized
at
fiscal
year-end;
accordingly,
tax-basis
balances
have
not
been
determined
as
of
the
date
of
this
report.
The
fund
intends
to
retain
realized
gains
to
the
extent
of
available

Net
realized
capital
losses
may
be
carried
forward
indefinitely
to
offset

capital
gains.
As

TRANSACTIONS
The

subsidiaries,
to
provide
investment
advisory
services
to
the
fund.
The
investment
management
agreement
between
the
fund
and
Price
Associates
provides
for
an
annual
investment
management
fee,
which
is
computed
daily
and
paid
monthly. The
fee
consists
of
an
individual
fund
fee,
equal
to
0.27%
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets,
and
a
group
fee.
The
group
fee
rate
is
calculated
based
on
the
combined
net
assets
of
certain
mutual

billion
of
assets
to
0.260%
for
assets
in

The
fund’s
group
fee
is
determined
by
applying
the
group
fee
rate
to
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets. At

whom
they
met
separately.
In
providing
information
to
the
Board,
the
Adviser
was
guided
by
a
detailed
set
of
requests
for
information
submitted
by
independent
legal
counsel
on
behalf
of
the
independent
directors.
In
considering
and
approving
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contracts,
the
Board
considered
the
information
it
believed
was
relevant,
including,
but
not
limited
to,
the
information
discussed
below.
The
Board
considered
not
only
the
specific
information
presented
in
connection
with
the
Meeting,
but
also
the
knowledge
gained
over
time
through
interaction
with
the
Adviser
and
Subadvisers
about
various
topics.
The
Board
meets
regularly
and,
at
each
of
its
meetings,
covers
an
extensive
agenda
of
topics
and
materials
and
considers
factors
that
are
relevant
to
its
annual
consideration
of
the
renewal
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds’
advisory
contracts,
including
performance
and
the
services
and
support
provided
to
the
funds
and
their
shareholders.
Services
Provided
by
the
Adviser
and
Subadviser
The
Board
considered
the
nature,
quality,
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
to
the
fund
by
the
Adviser
and
Subadvisers.
These
services
included,
but
were
not
limited
to,
directing
the
fund’s
investments
in
accordance
with
its
investment
program
and
the
overall
management
of
the
fund’s
portfolio,
as
well
as
a
variety
of
related
activities
such
as
financial,
investment
operations,
and
administrative
services;
compliance;
maintaining
the
fund’s
records
and
registrations;
and
shareholder
communications.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
background
and
experience
of
the
Adviser’s
and
Subadvisers’
senior
management
teams
and
investment
personnel
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Global
High
Income
Bond
Fund
involved
in
the
management
of
the
fund,
as
well
as
the
Adviser’s
compliance
record.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
information
it
considered
with
respect
to
the
nature,
quality,
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
by
the
Adviser
and
Subadvisers,
as
well
as
the
other
factors
considered
at
the
Meeting,
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contracts.
Investment
Performance
of
the
Fund
The
Board
took
into
account
discussions
with
the
Adviser
and
detailed
reports
that
it
regularly
receives
throughout
the
year
on
relative
and
absolute
performance
for
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
In
connection
with
the
Meeting,
the
Board
reviewed
information
provided
by
the
Adviser
that
compared
the
fund’s
total
returns,
as
well
as
a
wide
variety
of
other
previously
agreed-upon
performance
measures
and
market
data,
against
relevant
benchmark
indexes
and
peer
groups
of
funds
with
similar
investment
programs
for
various
periods
through
December
31,
2023.
Additionally,
the
Board
reviewed
the
fund’s
relative
performance
information
as
of
September
30,
2023,
which
ranked
the
returns
of
the
fund’s
Investor
Class
for
various
periods
against
a
universe
of
funds
with
similar
investment
programs
selected
by
Broadridge,
an
independent
provider
of
mutual
fund
data.
In
the
course
of
its
deliberations,
the
Board
considered
performance
information
provided
throughout
the
year
and
in
connection
with
the
Advisory
Contract
review
at
the
Meeting,
as
well
as
information
provided
during
investment
review
meetings
conducted
with
portfolio
managers
and
senior
investment
personnel
during
the
course
of
the
year
regarding
the
fund’s
performance.
The
Board
also
considered
relevant
factors,
such
as
overall
market
conditions
and
trends
that
could
adversely
impact
the
fund’s
performance,
the
length
of
the
fund’s
performance
track
record,
and
how
closely
the
fund’s
strategies
align
with
its
benchmarks
and
peer
groups.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
information
it
considered
with
respect
to
the
fund’s
performance,
as
well
as
the
other
factors
considered
at
the
Meeting,
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contracts.
Costs,
Benefits,
Profits,
and
Economies
of
Scale
The
Board
reviewed
detailed
information
regarding
the
revenues
received
by
the
Adviser
under
the
Advisory
Contract
and
other
direct
and
indirect
benefits
that
the
Adviser
(and
its
affiliates,
including
the
Subadvisers)
may
have
realized
from
its
relationship
with
the
fund.
In
considering
soft-dollar
arrangements
pursuant
to
which
research
may
be
received
from
broker-dealers
that
execute
the
fund’s
portfolio
transactions,
the
Board
noted
that
during
2023
the
Adviser
paid
the
costs
of
research
services
for
all
client
accounts
that
it
advises,
including
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
However,
effective
January
1,
2024,
the
Adviser
will
begin
using
brokerage
commissions
in
connection
with
certain
T.
Rowe
Price
funds’
securities
transactions
to
pay
for
research
when
permissible.
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Global
High
Income
Bond
Fund
The
Board
received
information
on
the
estimated
costs
incurred
and
profits
realized
by
the
Adviser
from
managing
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
While
the
Board
did
not
review
information
regarding
profits
realized
from
managing
the
fund
in
particular
because
the
fund
had
either
not
achieved
sufficient
portfolio
asset
size
or
not
recognized
sufficient
revenues
to
produce
meaningful
profit
margin
percentages,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
Adviser’s
profits
were
reasonable
in
light
of
the
services
provided
to
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
Board
also
considered
whether
the
fund
benefits
under
the
fee
levels
set
forth
in
the
Advisory
Contract
or
otherwise
from
any
economies
of
scale
realized
by
the
Adviser.
Under
the
Advisory
Contract,
the
fund
pays
a
fee
to
the
Adviser
for
investment
management
services
composed
of
two
components—a
group
fee
rate
based
on
the
combined
average
net
assets
of
most
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
(including
the
fund)
that
declines
at
certain
asset
levels
and
an
individual
fund
fee
rate
based
on
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets—and
the
fund
pays
its
own
expenses
of
operations.
Under
each
Subadvisory
Contract,
the
Adviser
may
pay
the
Subadviser
up
to
60%
of
the
advisory
fees
that
the
Adviser
receives
from
the
fund.
The
group
fee
rate
decreases
as
total
T.
Rowe
Price
fund
assets
grow,
which
reduces
the
management
fee
rate
for
any
fund
that
has
a
group
fee
component
to
its
management
fee,
and
reflects
that
certain
resources
utilized
to
operate
the
fund
are
shared
with
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
thus
allowing
shareholders
of
those
funds
to
share
potential
economies
of
scale.
The
fund’s
shareholders
benefit
from
potential
economies
of
scale
through
a
decline
in
certain
operating
expenses
as
the
fund
grows
in
size.
However,
the
fund
is
also
subject
to
contractual
expense
limitations
that
require
the
Adviser
to
waive
its
fees
and/or
bear
any
expenses
that
would
otherwise
cause
the
expenses
of
a
share
class
of
the
fund
to
exceed
a
certain
percentage
based
on
the
class’s
net
assets.
The
expense
limitations
mitigate
the
potential
for
an
increase
in
operating
expenses
above
a
certain
level
that
could
impact
shareholders.
In
addition,
the
Board
noted
that
the
fund
potentially
shares
in
indirect
economies
of
scale
through
the
Adviser’s
and
Subadvisers’
ongoing
investments
in
their
business
in
support
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
including
investments
in
trading
systems,
technology,
and
regulatory
support
enhancements,
and
the
ability
to
possibly
negotiate
lower
fee
arrangements
with
third-party
service
providers.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
advisory
fee
structure
for
the
fund
provides
for
a
reasonable
sharing
of
benefits
from
any
economies
of
scale
with
the
fund’s
investors.
Fees
and
Expenses
The
Board
was
provided
with
information
regarding
industry
trends
in
management
fees
and
expenses.
Among
other
things,
the
Board
reviewed
data
for
peer
groups
that
were
compiled
by
Broadridge,
which
compared:
(i)
contractual
management
fees,
actual
management
fees,
nonmanagement
expenses,
and
total
expenses
of
the
Investor
Class
of
the
fund
with
a
group
of
competitor
funds
selected
by
Broadridge
(Investor
Class
Expense
Group);
(ii)
actual
management
fees
and
total
T.

expenses
of
the
Advisor
Class
of
the
fund
with
a
group
of
competitor
funds
selected
by
Broadridge
(Advisor
Class
Expense
Group);
and
(iii)
actual
management
fees,
nonmanagement
expenses,
and
total

of
the
Investor
Class
of
the
fund
with
a
broader
set
of
funds
within
the
Lipper
investment
classification
(Expense
Universe).
The
Board
considered
the
fund’s
contractual
management
fee
rate,
actual
management
fee
rate
(which
reflects
the
management
fees
actually
received
from
the
fund
by
the
Adviser
after
any
applicable
waivers,
reductions,
or
reimbursements),
operating
expenses,
and
total
expenses
(which
reflect
the
net
total
expense
ratio
of
the
fund
after
any
waivers,
reductions,
or reimbursements)
in
comparison
with
the
information
for
the
Broadridge
peer
groups.
Broadridge
generally
constructed
the
peer
groups
by
seeking
the
most
comparable
funds
based
on
similar
investment
classifications
and
objectives,
expense
structure,
asset
size,
and
operating
components
and
attributes
and
ranked
funds
into
quintiles,
with
the
first
quintile
representing
the
funds
with
the
lowest
relative
expenses
and
the
fifth
quintile
representing
the
funds
with
the
highest
relative
expenses.
The
information
provided
to
the
Board
indicated
that
the
fund’s
contractual
management
fee
ranked
in
the
first
quintile
(Investor
Class
Expense
Group),
the
fund’s
actual
management
fee
rate
ranked
in
the
first
quintile
(Investor
Class
Expense
Group,
Expense
Universe,
and
Advisor
Class
Expense
Group),
and
the
fund’s
total
expenses
ranked
in
the
third
quintile
(Investor
Class
Expense
Group
and
Expense
Universe)
and
first
quintile
(Advisor
Class
Expense
Group).
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
fee
schedules
for
other
investment
portfolios
with
similar
mandates
that
are
advised
or
subadvised
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates,
including
separately
managed
accounts
for
institutional
and
individual
investors;
subadvised
funds;
and
other
sponsored
investment
portfolios,
including
collective
investment
trusts
and
pooled
vehicles
organized
and
offered
to
investors
outside
the
United
States.
Management
provided
the
Board
with
information
about
the
Adviser’s
responsibilities
and
services
provided
to
subadvisory
and
other
institutional
account
clients,
including
information
about
how
the
requirements
and
economics
of
the
institutional
business
are
fundamentally
different
from
those
of
the
proprietary
mutual
fund
business.
The
Board
considered
information
showing
that
the
Adviser’s
mutual
fund
business
is
generally
more
complex
from
a
business
and
compliance
perspective
than
its
institutional
account
business
and
considered
various
relevant
factors,
such
as
the
broader
scope
of
operations
and
oversight,
more
extensive
shareholder
communication
infrastructure,
greater
asset
flows,
heightened
business
risks,
and
differences
in
applicable
laws
and
regulations
associated
with
the
Adviser’s
proprietary
mutual
fund
business.
In
assessing
the
reasonableness
of
the
fund’s
management
fee
rate,
the
Board
considered
the
differences
in
the
nature
of
the
services
required
for
the
Adviser
to
manage
its
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Global
High
Income
Bond
Fund
mutual
fund
business
versus
managing
a
discrete
pool
of
assets
as
a
subadviser
to
another
institution’s
mutual
fund
or
for
an
institutional
account
and
that
the
Adviser
generally
performs
significant
additional
services
and
assumes
greater
risk
in
managing
the
fund
and
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
than
it
does
for
institutional
account
clients,
including
subadvised
funds.
On
the
basis
of
the
information
provided
and
the
factors
considered,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
fees
paid
by
the
fund
under
the
Advisory
Contract
are
reasonable.
Approval
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contract
As
noted,
the
Board
approved
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contracts.
No
single
factor
was
considered
in
isolation
or
to
be
determinative
to
the
decision.
Rather,
the
Board
concluded,
in
light
of
a
weighting
and
balancing
of
all
factors
considered,
that
it
was
in
the
best
interests
of
the

for

approve
the
continuation
of

(including
