With respect to Item 1, each Trust will vote separately. This means that for each Trust, the votes of shareholders of all Funds that are series of that Trust will be voted together as a single class.
The mailing address of each Trust and of each Fund is 500 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02116. In addition to soliciting proxies by mail, the Trustees of the Trusts and employees of Massachusetts Financial Services Company (“MFS”), the Funds’ investment adviser and administrator, may solicit proxies in person or by telephone. The expenses of the preparation of proxy statements and related materials, including printing and delivery costs, and vote solicitation are borne equally by the Funds and MFS.
The Trusts have engaged Computershare Fund Services to provide shareholder meeting services including the distribution of this Proxy Statement and related materials to shareholders as well as vote solicitation and tracking. It is anticipated that the cost of these services will be $3,233,627 and may increase substantially in the event that any vote is contested or increased solicitation efforts are required.
A copy of each Fund’s most recent annual report and semi-annual report may be obtained without charge at www.MFS.com or by contacting MFS Service Center, Inc., each Fund’s transfer and shareholder servicing agent, at 500 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02116, or by telephoning toll-free (800) 225-2606. Directions to the meeting in order to vote in person are available by telephoning (800) 225-2606.
ITEM 1 — ELECTION OF TRUSTEES
The Board, which oversees each Fund, provides broad supervision over the affairs of each Fund. MFS is responsible for the investment management of each Fund’s assets and for providing a variety of other administrative services to each Fund. The officers of each Fund are responsible for its operations.
Effective January 1, 2010, the Board has fixed the number of Trustees of each Trust at twelve. The Nomination and Compensation Committee of each Board makes recommendations concerning the nominees for Trustees and consists solely of Trustees who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)) of the Funds or of MFS. Those Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Funds or of MFS are referred to as “Independent Trustees” throughout this Proxy Statement. Each Nomination and Compensation Committee has recommended that the Board nominate for election by shareholders the nominees described in the following pages, and each Board has nominated such individuals. The Board recommends that you vote in favor of the election of the nominees.
The Funds do not hold annual shareholder meetings for the purpose of electing Trustees, and Trustees are not elected for fixed terms. This means that each Trustee will be elected to hold office until his or her successor is chosen and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement or removal. It is intended that proxies not limited to the contrary will be voted in favor of electing Robert E. Butler, Lawrence H. Cohn, M.D., Maureen R. Goldfarb, David H. Gunning, William R. Gutow, Michael Hegarty, John P. Kavanaugh, Robert J. Manning, Robert C. Pozen, J. Dale Sherratt, Laurie J. Thomsen and Robert W. Uek as Trustees of each Trust.
Each nominee has agreed to serve as a Trustee of each Trust if elected. If, before the Meeting, any nominee refuses or is unable to serve, or if any of the nominees is unavailable at the time of the Meeting, and such refusal or inability to serve or unavailability is not anticipated, the Trustees may vote for other nominees at their discretion, or the Trustees may fix the number of Trustees at fewer than twelve for a Trust. Under the terms of each Trust’s retirement policy, the Trustees have a mandatory retirement age of
12
73 years. Mr. Cohn and Mr. Sherratt will reach the Trusts’ mandatory retirement age in 2010 and 2011, respectively. Each of Mr. Cohn and Mr. Sherratt is expected to retire as a Trustee of each Trust as of December 31 in the year in which he reaches the Trust’s mandatory retirement age. The Board may appoint a replacement Trustee or choose to decrease the size of the Board at that time. For each Trust, the twelve nominees for election as Trustees who receive the greatest number of shareholder votes will be elected as Trustees of the Trust.
The following table presents certain information regarding the nominees and current Trustees of each Trust, including their principal occupations, which, unless specific dates are shown, are of more than five years duration, although the titles may not have been the same throughout.

The Committee is also responsible for establishing procedures for the receipt, retention, and treatment of complaints received by the Trust regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters and the confidential, anonymous submission of concerns regarding questionable Trust accounting matters by officers of the Trust and employees of the Trust’s investment adviser, administrator, principal underwriter or any other provider of accounting-related services to the Trust. | | Butler*, Kavanaugh*, Sherratt*, Thomsen*, and Uek* |

The Trustees generally hold at least eight regular meetings each calendar year. These regular meetings take place over a two-day period. The performance and operations of each of the Funds is reviewed by the Trustees at each meeting and more in-depth reviews of particular Funds are conducted by the Trustees throughout the year. The Board of Trustees of each Trust held twelve meetings during the calendar year ended December 31, 2008. Each Trustee attended at least 75% of the Board and applicable committee meetings for each Trust during such Trust’s most recently completed fiscal year.
Nomination and Compensation Committee
The Trustees have adopted a written charter for the Nomination and Compensation Committee, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 1 to this Proxy Statement. The Trusts currently do not maintain a website on which the charter is available. Each Trust’s Nomination and Compensation Committee consists only of Independent Trustees.
The Nomination and Compensation Committee requires that Trustee candidates have a college degree or equivalent business experience, but has not otherwise established specific, minimum qualifications that must be met by an individual to be considered by the Committee for nomination as a Trustee. The Nomination and Compensation Committee may take into account a wide variety of factors in considering Trustee candidates, including, but not limited to: (i) availability and commitment of a candidate to attend meetings and perform his or her responsibilities to the Board; (ii) relevant industry and related experience; (iii) educational background; (iv) financial expertise; (v) experience with corporate governance matters; (vi) an assessment of the candidate’s ability, judgment and expertise; (vii) overall diversity of the composition of the Board; (viii) the percentage of the Board represented by Independent Trustees and whether a candidate would qualify as an Independent Trustee under the 1940 Act; and (ix) such other factors as the Committee deems appropriate. The Nomination and Compensation Committee may consider candidates for Trustee recommended by each Trust’s current Trustees, officers or shareholders or by MFS or any other source deemed appropriate by the Nomination and Compensation Committee. The Nomination and Compensation Committee may, but is not required to, retain a third-party search firm at the applicable Trust’s expense to identify potential candidates.
The Nomination and Compensation Committee will review and consider nominees recommended by shareholders to serve as Trustee, provided that the recommending shareholder follows the Procedures for Shareholders to Submit Nominee Candidates, which are set forth as Appendix B to the Trusts’ Nomination and Compensation Committee Charter, attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit 1. Among other
21
requirements, these procedures provide that the recommending shareholder must submit any recommendation in writing to the Trust, to the attention of the Trust’s Secretary, at the address of the principal executive offices of the Trust. Any recommendation must include certain biographical information and other information regarding the candidate and the recommending shareholder, and must include a written and signed consent of the candidate to be named as a nominee and to serve as a Trustee if elected. The foregoing description is only a summary.
The Nomination and Compensation Committee has full discretion to reject nominees recommended by shareholders, and there is no assurance that any such person properly recommended and considered by the Committee will be nominated for election to the Board of a Trust.

Shareholder Communications with the Board
The Board of each Trust has adopted procedures by which shareholders may send communications to the Board. Shareholders may mail written communications to the Board of Trustees, [Name of Fund], c/o Massachusetts Financial Services Company, 500 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02116, Attention: Frank Tarantino, Independent Chief Compliance Officer. Shareholder communications must (i) be in writing and be signed by the shareholder, (ii) identify the Fund to which they relate and (iii) identify the class and number of shares held by the shareholder. The Funds’ Independent Chief Compliance Officer (“ICCO”) is responsible for reviewing all properly submitted shareholder communications. The ICCO shall either (i) provide a copy of each properly submitted shareholder communication to the Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting or (ii) if the ICCO determines that the communication requires more immediate attention, forward the communication to the Chair of the Trustees promptly after receipt. The ICCO may, in good faith, determine that a shareholder communication should not be provided to the Board because it is ministerial in nature (such as a request for Fund literature, share data or financial information). The ICCO may in such cases forward the communication to the appropriate party or parties at MFS. These procedures do not apply to (i) any communication from an officer or Trustee of a Trust, (ii) any communication from an employee or agent of a Fund, unless such communication is made solely in such employee’s or agent’s capacity as a shareholder or (iii) any shareholder proposal submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any communication made in connection with such a proposal. Each Trust’s Trustees are not required to attend the Funds’ shareholder meetings or to otherwise make themselves available to shareholders for communications, other than pursuant to the aforementioned procedures.
Each Trust’s Declaration of Trust currently provides that the Trust will indemnify its Trustees and officers against liabilities and expenses incurred in connection with litigation in which they may be involved
23
because of their offices with the Trust, unless it is finally adjudicated or, in case of a settlement, has been determined by Trustees not involved in the matter or independent legal counsel, that they have not acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that their actions were in the best interests of the Trust or that they engaged in willful misfeasance or acted with bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of their offices.
Trustee Compensation Table
The tables below show (i) the cash compensation paid to the Trustees by each Fund for its most recently completed fiscal year and (ii) the total cash compensation received by each Trustee from the MFS fund complex for calendar year 2008. Interested Trustees receive no compensation from the Funds for their services as Trustees. The table includes information for Mr. Ives, who is not standing for reelection.

Retirement Benefit Deferral Plan — Under a Retirement Benefit Deferral Plan, certain Trustees have deferred benefits from a prior retirement plan. The value of the benefits is periodically readjusted as though the Trustee had invested an equivalent amount in Class A shares of the Fund(s) designated by such Trustee. The value of the deferred benefits will be paid to the Trustees upon retirement or thereafter. The plan does not obligate a Fund to retain the services of any Trustee or pay any particular level of compensation to any Trustee. The plan is not funded and a Fund’s obligation to pay the Trustee’s deferred compensation is a general unsecured obligation.
Lawrence T. Perera retired on December 31, 2008 and has received the following payments in 2009 under the Retirement Benefit Deferral Plan:
| | |
Fund | | Payment Amount |
MFS High Income Fund | | $17,721 |

FUND INFORMATION
This section provides certain information about each Fund, including information about its investment adviser, principal underwriter and administrator, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, executive officers and the identity of persons holding more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of any Fund.
Investment Adviser, Principal Underwriter and Administrator
Each Fund engages as its investment adviser and administrator MFS, a Delaware corporation with offices at 500 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02116. Each Fund engages as its principal underwriter MFS Fund Distributors, Inc. (“MFD”), a Delaware corporation with offices at 500 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02116. MFS is a majority owned subsidiary of Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Financial Services Holdings, Inc., which in turn is a majority-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Financial (U.S.) Holdings, Inc., 500 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02116, which in turn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada — U.S. Operations Holdings, Inc., One Sun Life Executive Park, Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts 02481 (“Sun Life U.S. Operations”). Sun Life U.S. Operations is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Financial Corp., 150 King Street West, Toronto, Canada MSH 1J9, which in turn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Financial Inc.
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and fiscal year end for each Fund are listed in Schedule A.
No Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm has a direct or material indirect interest in a Fund.
The Funds do not expect representatives of Ernst & Young LLP or Deloitte & Touche LLP to be present at the Meetings, but they will have the opportunity to make a statement if they wish, and they will be available should any matter arise requiring their presence.
To the extent required by applicable regulations, pre-approval by the Audit Committee of the Board is needed for all audit and permissible non-audit services rendered by the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm to each Fund and all permissible non-audit services rendered by the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm to MFS and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with MFS that provides ongoing services to a Fund (including MFS Service Center, Inc.) (each, a “Service Affiliate”) if the services relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of such Fund. Pre-approval is currently on an engagement-by-engagement basis. In the event pre-approval of such services is necessary between regular meetings of the Audit Committee and it is not practical to wait to seek pre-approval at the next regular meeting of the Audit Committee, pre-approval of such services may be referred to the Chair of the Audit Committee; provided that the Chair may not pre-approve any individual engagement for such services exceeding $50,000 or multiple engagements for such services in the aggregate exceeding $100,000 between such regular meetings of the Audit Committee. Any engagement pre-approved by the Chair between regular meetings of the Audit Committee shall be presented for ratification by the entire Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
Schedule B attached hereto includes tables that set forth for each Fund (in order of fiscal year end), for each Fund’s two most recent fiscal years, the fees billed by each Fund’s Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for (a) all audit and non-audit services provided directly to the Fund and (b) those
37
non-audit services provided to the Fund’s Service Affiliates that relate directly to the Fund’s operations and financial reporting under the following captions:
| (i) | | Audit Fees — fees related to the audit and review of the financial statements included in annual reports and registration statements, and other services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements. |
| (ii) | | Audit-Related Fees — fees related to assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of financial statements, but not reported under “Audit Fees,” including accounting consultations, agreed-upon procedure reports, attestation reports, comfort letters and internal control reviews. |
| (iii) | | Tax Fees — fees associated with tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning, including services relating to the filing or amendment of federal, state or local income tax returns, regulated investment company qualification reviews and tax distribution and analysis reviews. |
| (iv) | | All Other Fees — fees for products and services provided to the Fund by the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm other than those reported under “Audit Fees,” “Audit-Related Fees” and “Tax Fees.” |
Schedule B attached hereto also sets forth the aggregate fees billed by each Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, for each Fund’s two most recent fiscal years, for non-audit services rendered to each Fund and to each Fund’s Service Affiliates.
The Audit Committee has considered whether the provision by a Fund’s Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm of non-audit services to the Fund’s Service Affiliates that were not pre-approved by the Audit Committee (because such services did not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund) was compatible with maintaining the independence of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm as the Fund’s principal auditor.

FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT VOTING AND THE MEETING
Manner of Voting Proxies
All proxies received by management will be voted on all matters presented at the Meeting, and if not limited to the contrary, will be voted FOR the election of Robert E. Butler, Lawrence H. Cohn, M.D., Maureen R. Goldfarb, David H. Gunning, William R. Gutow, Michael Hegarty, John P. Kavanaugh, Robert J. Manning, Robert C. Pozen, J. Dale Sherratt, Laurie J. Thomsen and Robert W. Uek as Trustees of the Trust (if still available for election).
All proxies received, including proxies that reflect (i) broker non-votes (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees as to which (a) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or the persons entitled to vote, and (b) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power on a particular matter), (ii) abstentions or (iii) the withholding of authority to vote, will be counted as shares that are present on a particular matter for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for that matter. Shares representing a majority of a Trust’s voting power entitled to be cast at the Meeting that are present in person or represented by proxy constitutes a quorum. With respect to the election of Trustees, neither abstentions nor withholding authority to vote have any effect on the outcome of the voting.
Each shareholder of a Fund is entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value (number of shares of the Fund owned by such shareholder, times net asset value per share) of the Fund that such shareholder owns at the close of business on November 13, 2009, on each matter on which the shareholder is entitled to vote. Each fractional dollar amount is entitled to a proportionate fractional vote.
Each Fund will reimburse the record holders of its shares for their expenses incurred in sending proxy material to and obtaining voting instructions from beneficial owners.
Each Fund knows of no other matters to be brought before the Meeting. If, however, because of any unexpected occurrence, any nominee is not available for election or if any other matters properly come before the Meeting, it is each Fund’s intention that proxies not limited to the contrary will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy.
Instructions for Voting Proxies
The giving of a proxy will not affect a shareholder’s right to vote in person should the shareholder decide to attend the Meeting. To vote by mail, please mark, sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card following the instructions printed on the card. Please refer to your proxy card for instructions on voting by telephone or internet.
Submission of Proposals
Each of the Funds is part of a Massachusetts business trust, and as such is not required to hold annual meetings of shareholders. However, the Trustees may from time to time schedule special meetings. Shareholder proposals for inclusion in a Fund’s proxy statement for any subsequent meeting must be received by the applicable Fund a reasonable period of time prior to any such meeting.
41
Additional Information
Because all shareholders of Funds that are series of the same Trust will vote together as a single class with respect to the election of Trustees, the Meeting of shareholders of each Fund is called to be held at the same time as the Meeting of shareholders of each of the other Funds. It is anticipated that all Meetings will be held simultaneously.
Each of the MFS Aggressive Growth Allocation Fund, the MFS Conservative Allocation Fund, the MFS Growth Allocation Fund, the MFS Moderate Allocation Fund, the MFS International Diversification Fund, the MFS Lifetime Retirement Income Fund, the MFS Lifetime 2010 Fund, the MFS Lifetime 2020 Fund, the MFS Lifetime 2030 Fund and the MFS Lifetime 2040 Fund (collectively, the “MFS Allocation Funds”) own shares of certain other MFS Funds (each, an “underlying fund”). Each MFS Allocation Fund will vote its shares of each underlying fund (other than the MFS Global Real Estate Fund) in the same proportion as those underlying fund shareholders unaffiliated with the MFS Allocation Funds.
With regard to a proposal other than the election of Trustees (if any), if any shareholder at the Meeting objects to the holding of simultaneous Meetings and moves for an adjournment of that Meeting to a time promptly after the simultaneous Meetings, the persons named as proxies will vote in favor of such adjournment with respect to such other proposals.
Half of the expense of the preparation, printing and mailing of the enclosed form of proxy, the Notice and this Proxy Statement, and any tabulation costs, will be borne on a proportional basis by the Funds. The remaining half of the expenses will be borne by MFS.
Only one copy of this Proxy Statement may be mailed to you if you hold multiple accounts within a Fund. If you need additional copies of this Proxy Statement and you are the holder of record of your shares, please contact Computershare Fund Services at 1-866-880-8631.

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT PROXIES BE RETURNED PROMPTLY

MFS Funds Board
Nomination and Compensation Committee Charter
(Adopted as of July 20, 2004)
The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of each of the Trusts listed in Appendix A hereto, as the same may be periodically updated (each a “Trust” and, collectively, the “Trusts”), has adopted this Charter to govern the activities of the Nomination and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the particular Board on behalf of each series of a Trust and each Trust which is itself a single series (each such series a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”). This Charter applies separately to each Trust and its particular Board and Committee, and shall be interpreted accordingly.
Statement of Purposes and Responsibilities
The Committee is responsible for (i) determining requisite standards or qualifications for nominees to serve as trustees on the Board, (ii) identifying possible candidates to become members of the Board in the event that a trustee position is vacated or created and/or in contemplation of a shareholders’ meeting at which one or more trustees is to be elected, and (iii) considering and evaluating such candidates and recommending trustee nominees for the Board’s approval.
In addition, the Committee is responsible for recommending for approval by the Board the structure and levels of compensation and other related benefits to be paid or provided by the Funds to Board members (“Independent Trustees”) who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).
Organization and Governance
The Committee shall be comprised of all of the Independent Trustees on the Board, and shall not include any members who are not Independent Trustees.
One or more members of the Committee may be designated by the Board as the Committee’s chair or co-chair, as the case may be. The Committee may delegate any portion of it authority or responsibilities to a sub-committee of one or more members.
The Committee will not have regularly scheduled meetings. Committee meetings shall be held as and when the Committee or the Board determines necessary or appropriate in accordance with the Trust’s By-Laws. The Chair of the Trustees, the chair or vice-chair of the Committee or a majority of the members of the Committee are authorized to call a meeting of the Committee and send notice thereof or direct that such notice be sent.
A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the Committee. The action of a majority of the members of the Committee present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the action of the Committee. The Committee may also take action by written consent of a majority of the Committee members. The Committee may meet by means of a telephone conference circuit or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other.
44
Committee Duties and Responsibilities
The duties and responsibilities of the Committee include:
Nomination
1. To determine requisite standards or qualifications for trustees nominees. The Committee currently requires at minimum that trustee candidates have a college degree or equivalent business and related industry experience.
2. To identify potential candidates to become members of the Board in the event that a trustee position is vacated or created and/or in contemplation of a shareholders’ meeting at which one or more trustees is to be elected. The Committee may consider candidates recommended by one or more of the following sources: (i) the Fund’s current Trustees, (ii) the Fund’s officers, (iii) the Fund’s investment adviser(s), (iv) the Fund’s shareholders (see 4. below) and (v) any other source the Committee deems to be appropriate. The Committee may, but is not required to, retain a third party search firm at the Fund’s expense to identify potential candidates.
3. To consider and evaluate candidates identified in 2. above and recommend trustee nominees for the Board’s approval. In considering and evaluating candidates, the Committee may take into account a wide variety of factors, including (but not limited to): (i) availability and commitment of a candidate to attend meetings and perform his or her responsibilities on the Board, (ii) relevant business and related industry experience, (iii) educational background, (iv) financial expertise, (v) experience with corporate governance matters, (vi) an assessment of the candidate’s ability, judgment and expertise, (vii) overall diversity of the Board’s composition, (viii) the percentage of the Board represented by Independent Trustees and whether a candidate would qualify as an Independent Trustee under the 1940 Act, and (ix) such other factors as the Committee deems appropriate.
4. To consider and evaluate nominee candidates properly submitted by shareholders on the same basis as it considers and evaluates candidates recommended by other sources. Appendix B to this Charter, as it may be amended from time to time by the Committee, sets forth procedures that must be followed by shareholders to properly submit a nominee candidate to the Committee (recommendations not properly submitted in accordance with Appendix B will not be considered by the Committee).
Compensation
1. To recommend for approval by the Board the structure and levels of compensation and any related benefits to be paid or provided by the Funds to the Independent Trustees for their services on the Board and any Committees of the Board.
2. In formulating the Committee’s recommendations in 1. above, to periodically (and at least annually) review and assess the compensation and any related benefits paid or provided by the Funds to the Independent Trustees based upon facts and circumstances applicable to the Funds, relevant industry practice, the goal of attracting and retaining highly qualified individuals to serve as Independent Trustees and such other factors that the Committee deems appropriate.
General
1. To make such other recommendations and reports to the Board within the scope of the Committee’s functions.
2. To discharge any other duties or responsibilities delegated to the Committee by the Board from time to time.

(ii) the written and manually signed consent of the candidate to be named as a nominee and to serve as a Trustee if elected;
(iii) the recommending shareholder’s name as it appears on the Trust’s books and the class or series and number of all shares of the Trust owned beneficially and of record by the recommending shareholder (as evidenced to the Committee’s satisfaction by a recent brokerage or account statement); and
(iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the recommending shareholder and the candidate and any other person or persons (including their names) pursuant to which the recommendation is being made by the recommending shareholder.
In addition, the Committee may require the candidate to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require or deem necessary to determine the eligibility of such candidate to serve on the Board and information regarding the candidate that would be required to be disclosed if the candidate were a nominee in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with solicitation of proxies for election of Trustees.
