## ITEM 1
— ELECTION OF TRUSTEES

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”), which oversees each Trust, provides broad
supervision over the affairs of each Trust. Those Trustees who are not “interested persons” (as defined
in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)) of your Trust or of MFS are referred
to as “Independent Trustees” throughout this Proxy Statement. MFS is responsible for the investment
management of each Trust’s assets and for providing a variety of other administrative services to each
Trust. The officers of each Trust are responsible for its operations.

The Board currently
consists of 12 Trustees, 11 of whom are Independent Trustees. An Independent Trustee serves as Chair
of the Board. Taking into account the number, the diversity, and the complexity of the MFS Funds (as
defined below) overseen by the Board and the aggregate amount of assets under management in the Trusts,
the Board has determined that the efficient conduct of its affairs makes it desirable to delegate responsibility
for certain specific matters to Committees of the Board. Each of the seven standing Committees of the
Board, to which the Board has delegated certain authority and oversight responsibilities, consists exclusively
of Independent Trustees. In connection with each of the Board’s regular meetings, the Independent Trustees
meet separately from MFS with their counsel. The Independent Trustees also meet regularly with the Trusts’
Chief Compliance Officer (who is also MFS’ Chief Compliance Officer) to receive reports regarding the
compliance of the Trusts with the federal securities laws and the Trusts’ compliance policies and procedures.
The Board reviews its leadership structure periodically and believes that its structure is appropriate
to enable the Board to exercise its oversight of the Trusts.

The
Trusts have retained MFS as their investment adviser and administrator. MFS provides the Trusts with
investment advisory services, and is responsible for day-to-day administration of the Trusts and management
of the risks that arise from the Trusts’ investments and operations. Certain employees of MFS serve
as
