If you are already signed up to receive shareholder reports by email, you will not be affected by this change and you need not take any action.

If you invest directly with the fund, you can call 1-800-637-2304 to let the fund know that you wish to continue receiving paper copies of your shareholder reports. Your election to receive reports in paper will apply to all funds held in your account if you invest through your financial intermediary or all funds held with the MFS fund complex if you invest directly.

LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN
Dear Shareholders:
Markets experienced a bout of volatility in late 2018 as a result of higher interest rates, international trade friction, and geopolitical uncertainty surrounding issues such as
Brexit. Those concerns dissipated in the early months of 2019 due to the more dovish posture of the U.S. Federal Reserve and other global central banks, reported progress toward a trade pact between the United States and China, and action against ano-deal Brexit by the British Parliament. However, a last-minute breakdown in negotiations between the U.S. and China derailed the market’s momentum and increased concerns over the future pace of global growth. Compounding Brexit uncertainty was the resignation of British Prime Minister Theresa May, potentially ushering in a harder form of Brexit than she had advocated. U.S. equities have continued to outperform their global peers due in
part to fiscal stimulus undertaken in late 2017 and early 2018, which contributed to the continuation of relatively healthy levels of U.S. economic output against a backdrop of slower global growth. Inflation remains largely subdued globally, which is encouraging for asset markets. Rising incomes in many developed and emerging markets are supportive of gains in consumption, though a challenging environment for global trade has hindered manufacturing in most regions. Interest rates have fallen as a result of these challenges, and easier central bank policies are anticipated by markets.
Since launching the first U.S.open-end mutual fund in 1924, MFS® has been committed to a single purpose: to create value by allocating capital responsibly for clients. Through our powerful global investment platform, we combine collective expertise, thoughtful risk management, and long-term discipline to uncover what we believe are the best investment opportunities in the market.
Respectfully,

Average Effective Maturity (m) | | | 15.9 yrs. | |
(a) | For all securities other than those specifically described below, ratings are assigned to underlying securities utilizing ratings from Moody’s, Fitch, and Standard & Poor’s rating agencies and applying the following hierarchy: If all three agencies provide a rating, the middle rating (after dropping the highest and lowest ratings) is assigned; if two of the three agencies rate a security, the lower of the two is assigned. Ratings are shown in the S&P and Fitch scale (e.g., AAA). Securities rated BBB or higher are considered investment grade. All ratings are subject to change. Not Rated includes fixed income securities and fixed income derivatives, which have not been rated by any rating agency. The fund may or may not have held all of these instruments on this date. The fund is not rated by these agencies. |

Portfolio Composition – continued
(d) | Duration is a measure of how much a bond’s price is likely to fluctuate with general changes in interest rates, e.g., if rates rise 1.00%, a bond with a5-year duration is likely to lose about 5.00% of its value due to the interest rate move. This calculation is based on net assets applicable to common shares as of May 31. 2019. |
(i) | For purposes of this presentation, the components include the value of securities, and reflect the impact of the equivalent exposure of derivative positions, if any. These amounts may be negative from time to time. Equivalent exposure is a calculated amount that translates the derivative position into a reasonable approximation of the amount of the underlying asset that the portfolio would have to hold at a given point in time to have the same price sensitivity that results from the portfolio’s ownership of the derivative contract. When dealing with derivatives, equivalent exposure is a more representative measure of the potential impact of a position on portfolio performance than value. The bond component will include any accrued interest amounts. |
(m) | In determining each instrument’s effective maturity for purposes of calculating the fund’s dollar-weighted average effective maturity, MFS uses the instrument’s stated maturity or, if applicable, an earlier date on which MFS believes it is probable that a maturity-shortening device (such as a put,pre-refunding or prepayment) will cause the instrument to be repaid. Such an earlier date can be substantially shorter than the instrument’s stated maturity. This calculation is based on gross assets, which consists of net assets applicable to common shares plus the value of preferred shares, as of May 31, 2019. |
Cash & Cash Equivalents includes any cash, investments in money market funds, short-term securities, and other assets less liabilities. Please see the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for additional information related to the fund’s cash position and other assets and liabilities.
Cash & Cash Equivalents is negative due to the aggregate liquidation value of variable rate municipal term preferred shares.
Other includes equivalent exposure from currency derivatives and/or any offsets to derivative positions and/or the leverage created through the issuance of self-deposited inverse floaters and may be negative.
Percentages are based on net assets applicable to common shares as of May 31, 2019.
The portfolio is actively managed and current holdings may be different.

PORTFOLIO MANAGERS’ PROFILES
| | | | | | |
Portfolio Manager | | Primary Role | | Since | | Title and Five Year History |
Michael Dawson | | Portfolio Manager | | 2007 | | Investment Officer of MFS; employed in the investment management area of MFS since 1998. |
| | | |
Geoffrey Schechter | | Portfolio Manager | | 2007 | | Investment Officer of MFS; employed in the investment management area of MFS since 1993. |
OTHER NOTES
The fund’s shares may trade at a discount or premium to net asset value. When fund shares trade at a premium, buyers pay more than the net asset value underlying fund shares, and shares purchased at a premium would receive less than the amount paid for them in the event of the fund’s concurrent liquidation.
The fund’s monthly distributions may include a return of capital to shareholders to the extent that distributions are in excess of the fund’s net investment income and net capital gains, determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations. Distributions that are treated for federal income tax purposes as a return of capital will reduce each shareholder’s basis in his or her shares and, to the extent the return of capital exceeds such basis, will be treated as gain to the shareholder from a sale of shares. Returns of shareholder capital may have the effect of reducing the fund’s assets and increasing the fund’s expense ratio.
In accordance with Section 23(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, the fund hereby gives notice that it may from time to time repurchase common and/or preferred shares of the fund in the open market at the option of the Board of Trustees and on such terms as the Trustees shall determine.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(1) Business and Organization
MFS Investment Grade Municipal Trust (the fund) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversifiedclosed-end management investment company.
The fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies.
(2) Significant Accounting Policies
General– The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the preparation of these financial statements, management has evaluated subsequent events occurring after the date of the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities through the date that the financial statements were issued. The fund invests primarily in municipal instruments, which generally trade in theover-the-counter market. The value of municipal instruments can be affected by changes in their actual or perceived credit quality. The credit quality of, and the ability to pay principal and interest when due by, an issuer of a municipal instrument depends on the credit quality of the entity supporting the municipal instrument, how essential any services supported by the municipal instrument are, the sufficiency of any revenues or taxes that support the municipal instrument, and/or the willingness or ability of the appropriate government entity to approve any appropriations necessary to support the municipal instrument. Municipal instruments may be supported by insurance which typically guarantees the timely payment of all principal and interest due on the underlying municipal instrument. The value of a municipal instrument can be volatile and significantly affected by adverse tax changes or court rulings, legislative or political changes, changes in specific or general market and economic conditions in the region where the instrument is issued, and the financial condition of municipal issuers and of municipal instrument insurers of which there are a limited number. Also, because many municipal instruments are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in certain industries can significantly affect the fund and the overall municipal market. If the Internal Revenue Service determines an issuer of a municipal instrument has not complied with the applicable tax requirements, interest from the security could become taxable, the security could decline in value, and distributions made by the fund could be taxable to shareholders. The fund invests in high-yield securities rated below investment grade. Investments in below investment grade quality securities can involve a substantially greater risk of default or can already be in default, and their values can decline significantly. Below investment grade quality securities tend to be more sensitive to adverse news about the issuer, or the market or economy in general, than higher quality debt instruments.

In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) – Restricted Cash (“ASU2016-18”), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The fund adopted ASU2016-18 effective with the beginning of the current reporting period, which resulted in changes to the presentation of restricted cash in the fund’s Statement of Cash Flows and additional disclosures regarding the nature of the restrictions on cash and restricted cash.
In March 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic310-20) – Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities (“ASU2017-08”). For entities that purchased callable debt securities at a premium, ASU2017-08 requires that the premium be amortized to the earliest call date. ASU2017-08 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management has evaluated the potential impacts of ASU2017-08 and believes that adoption of ASU2017-08 will not have a material effect on the fund’s overall financial position or its overall results of operations.
Balance Sheet Offsetting– The fund’s accounting policy with respect to balance sheet offsetting is that, absent an event of default by the counterparty or a termination of the agreement, the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) Master Agreement, or similar agreement, does not result in an offset of reported amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities across transactions between the fund and the applicable counterparty. The fund’s right to setoff may be restricted or prohibited by the bankruptcy or insolvency laws of the particular jurisdiction to which a specific master netting agreement counterparty is subject. Balance sheet offsetting disclosures, to the extent applicable to the fund, have been included in the fund’s Significant Accounting Policies note under the captions for each of the fund’sin-scope financial instruments and transactions.
Investment Valuations– Debt instruments and floating rate loans, including restricted debt instruments, are generally valued at an evaluated or composite bid as provided by a third-party pricing service. Short-term instruments with a maturity at issuance of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities and other assets generally valued on the basis of information from a third-party pricing service may also be valued at a broker/dealer bid quotation. In determining values, third-party pricing services can utilize both transaction data and market information such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other market data.
The Board of Trustees has delegated primary responsibility for determining or causing to be determined the value of the fund’s investments (including any fair valuation) to the adviser pursuant to valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board. If the adviser determines that reliable market quotations are not readily available, investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the adviser in accordance with such procedures under the oversight of the Board of Trustees. Under the fund’s valuation policies and procedures, market quotations are not considered to be readily available for most types of debt instruments and floating rate loans and many types of derivatives. These investments are generally valued at fair value based on information
44
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) – continued
from third-party pricing services. In addition, investments may be valued at fair value if the adviser determines that an investment’s value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the exchange or market on which the investment is principally traded (such as foreign exchange or market) and prior to the determination of the fund’s net asset value, or after the halt of trading of a specific security where trading does not resume prior to the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded. The adviser generally relies on third-party pricing services or other information (such as the correlation with price movements of similar securities in the same or other markets; the type, cost and investment characteristics of the security; the business and financial condition of the issuer; and trading and other market data) to assist in determining whether to fair value and at what value to fair value an investment. The value of an investment for purposes of calculating the fund’s net asset value can differ depending on the source and method used to determine value. When fair valuation is used, the value of an investment used to determine the fund’s net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same investment. There can be no assurance that the fund could obtain the fair value assigned to an investment if it were to sell the investment at the same time at which the fund determines its net asset value per share.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund’s assets or liabilities. These inputs are categorized into three broad levels. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fund’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment. Level 1 includes unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes other significant observable market-based inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speed, and credit risk). Level 3 includes unobservable inputs, which may include the adviser’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments. The following is a summary of the levels used as of May 31, 2019 in valuing the fund’s assets or liabilities:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | |
Financial Instruments | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | | | Total | |
Municipal Bonds | | | $— | | | | $149,417,781 | | | | $— | | | | $149,417,781 | |
For further information regarding security characteristics, see the Portfolio of Investments.
Inverse Floaters– The fund invests in municipal inverse floating rate securities which are structured by the issuer (known as primary market inverse floating rate securities) or by the fund utilizing the fund’s municipal bonds which have already been issued (known as self-deposited secondary market inverse floating rate securities) to have variable rates of interest which typically move in the opposite direction of short-term interest rates. A self-deposited secondary market inverse floating rate security is created when the fund transfers a fixed rate municipal bond to a special purpose trust (“the trust”), and causes the trust to (a) issue floating rate certificates to third parties, in an amount equal to a fraction of the par amount of the deposited bonds (these certificates usually paytax-exempt interest at short-term interest rates that typically
45
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) – continued
reset weekly; and the certificate holders typically, on seven days notice, have the option to tender their certificates to the trust or another party for redemption at par plus accrued interest), and (b) issue inverse floating rate certificates (sometimes referred to as “inverse floaters”) which are held by the fund. Such self-deposited inverse floaters held by the fund are accounted for as secured borrowings, with the municipal bonds reflected in the investments of the fund and amounts owed to the holders of the floating rate certificates under the provisions of the trust, which amounts are paid solely from the assets of the trust, reflected as liabilities of the fund in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities under the caption, “Payable to the holders of the floating rate certificates”. The carrying value of the fund’s payable to the holders of the floating rate certificates as reported in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities approximates its fair value. The value of the payable to the holders of the floating rate certificates as of the reporting date is considered level 2 under the fair value hierarchy disclosure. At May 31, 2019, the fund’s payable to the holders of the floating rate certificates was $5,925,150 and the weighted average interest rate on the settled floating rate certificates issued by the trust was 1.67%. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, the average payable to the holders of the settled floating rate certificates was $5,971,375 at a weighted average interest rate of 1.73%. Interest expense and fees include interest payments made to the holders of certain floating rate certificates and associated fees, both of which are made from trust assets. Interest expense and fees are recorded as incurred. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, interest expense and fees related to self-deposited inverse floaters amounted to $74,136 and are included in “Interest expense and fees” in the Statement of Operations.
Statement of Cash Flows– Information on financial transactions which have been settled through the receipt or disbursement of cash or restricted cash is presented in the Statement of Cash Flows. Cash as presented in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities includes cash on hand at the fund’s custodian bank and does not include any short-term investments. Restricted cash is presented in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as restricted cash for uncleared derivatives and/or deposits with brokers for cleared derivatives and represents cash that has been segregated or delivered to cover the fund’s collateral or margin obligations under derivative contracts.
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and restricted cash reported within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities with that shown in the Statement of Cash Flows:
| | | | |
| |
| | 5/31/19 | |
Cash | | | $174,547 | |
Restricted cash | | | — | |
Restricted cash included in deposits with brokers | | | — | |
| |
Total cash and restricted cash in the Statement of Cash Flows | | | $174,547 | |
The beginning of period cash and restricted cash balance in the Statement of Cash Flows is comprised of cash of $1,196,532, restricted cash of $0, and restricted cash included in deposits with brokers of $0.
Indemnifications– Under the fund’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business,
46
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) – continued
the fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The fund’s maximum exposure under these agreements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the fund that have not yet occurred.
Investment Transactions and Income– Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. All premium and discount is amortized or accreted for financial statement purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Interest payments received in additional securities are recorded on theex-interest date in an amount equal to the value of the security on such date. Debt obligations may be placed onnon-accrual status or set to accrue at a rate of interest less than the contractual coupon when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful. Interest income for those debt obligations may be further reduced by thewrite-off of the related interest receivables when deemed uncollectible.
The fund may receive proceeds from litigation settlements. Any proceeds received from litigation involving portfolio holdings are reflected in the Statement of Operations in realized gain/loss if the security has been disposed of by the fund or in unrealized gain/loss if the security is still held by the fund. Any other proceeds from litigation not related to portfolio holdings are reflected as other income in the Statement of Operations.
Legal fees and other related expenses incurred to preserve and protect the value of a security owned are added to the cost of the security; other legal fees are expensed. Capital infusions made directly to the security issuer, which are generallynon-recurring, incurred to protect or enhance the value of high-yield debt securities, are reported as additions to the cost basis of the security. Costs that are incurred to negotiate the terms or conditions of capital infusions or that are expected to result in a plan of reorganization are reported as realized losses. Ongoing costs incurred to protect or enhance an investment, or costs incurred to pursue other claims or legal actions, are expensed.
Tax Matters and Distributions– The fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, and to distribute all of its taxable andtax-exempt income, including realized capital gains. As a result, no provision for federal income tax is required. The fund’s federal tax returns, when filed, will remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a three year period. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken on federal and state tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.
Distributions to shareholders are recorded on theex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Certain capital accounts in the financial statements are periodically adjusted for permanent differences in order to reflect their tax character. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or net asset value per share. Temporary differences which arise from recognizing certain items of income, expense, gain or loss in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes will reverse at some time in the future. Distributions in excess of net
47
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) – continued
investment income or net realized gains are temporary overdistributions for financial statement purposes resulting from differences in the recognition or classification of income or distributions for financial statement and tax purposes.
Book/tax differences primarily relate to defaulted bonds, expiration of capital loss carryforwards, amortization and accretion of debt securities, andnon-deductible expenses that result from the treatment of VMTPS as equity for tax purposes.
The tax character of distributions made during the current period will be determined at fiscal year end. The tax character of distributions declared to shareholders for the last fiscal year is as follows:
| | | | |
| |
| | Year ended 11/30/18 | |
Ordinary income (including any short-term capital gains) | | | $98,250 | |
Tax-exempt income | | | 5,513,980 | |
| |
Total distributions | | | $5,612,230 | |
The federal tax cost and the tax basis components of distributable earnings were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
As of 5/31/19 | | | |
| |
Cost of investments | | | $132,930,931 | |
Gross appreciation | | | 10,873,111 | |
| |
Gross depreciation | | | (311,411 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | | | $10,561,700 | |
| |
As of 11/30/18 | | | |
| |
Undistributed ordinary income | | | 80,893 | |
Undistributedtax-exempt income | | | 859,995 | |
Capital loss carryforwards | | | (266,825 | ) |
Other temporary differences | | | (127,727 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | | | 6,123,264 | |
The aggregate cost above includes prior fiscal year end tax adjustments, if applicable.
Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”), net capital losses recognized for fund fiscal years beginning after November 30, 2011 may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term and/or long-term losses (“post-enactment losses”). Previously, net capital losses were carried forward for eight years and treated as short-term losses(“pre-enactment losses”). As a transition rule, the Act requires that all post-enactment net capital losses be used beforepre-enactment net capital losses.
As of November 30, 2018, the fund had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized gains. Suchpre-enactment losses expire as follows:

(3) Transactions with Affiliates
Investment Adviser– The fund has an investment advisory agreement with MFS to provide overall investment management and related administrative services and facilities to the fund. The management fee is computed daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.65% of the fund’s average daily net assets (including the value of preferred shares). The investment adviser has agreed in writing to reduce its management fee to 0.63% of the fund’s average daily net assets (including the value of preferred shares). This written agreement will continue until modified by the fund’s Board of Trustees, but such agreement will continue at least until November 30, 2019. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, this management fee reduction amounted to $14,270, which is included in the reduction of total expenses in the Statement of Operations. The management fee incurred for the six months ended May 31, 2019 was equivalent to an annual effective rate of 0.63% of the fund’s average daily net assets (including the value of preferred shares).
The investment adviser has agreed in writing to pay a portion of the fund’s total annual operating expenses, excluding interest expense on VMTPS, amortization of debt issuance costs on VMTPS, taxes, extraordinary expenses, brokerage and transaction costs, other interest expense, and investment-related expenses (including interest expense and fees associated with investments in inverse floating rate instruments), such that total fund operating expenses do not exceed 0.78% annually of the fund’s average daily net assets (including the value of preferred shares). This written agreement will continue until modified by the fund’s Board of Trustees, but such agreement will continue at least until November 30, 2019. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, this reduction amounted to $40,062, which is included in the reduction of total expenses in the Statement of Operations.
Transfer Agent– The fund engages Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“Computershare”) as the sole transfer agent for the fund’s common shares. MFS Service Center, Inc. (MFSC) monitors and supervises the activities of Computershare for an agreed upon fee approved by the Board of Trustees. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, these fees paid to MFSC amounted to $1,695.
Administrator– MFS provides certain financial, legal, shareholder communications, compliance, and other administrative services to the fund. Under an administrative services agreement, the fund reimburses MFS the costs incurred to provide these services. The fund is charged an annual fixed amount of $17,500 plus a fee based on average daily net assets (including the value of preferred shares). The administrative services fee incurred for the six months ended May 31, 2019 was equivalent to an annual effective rate of 0.0211% of the fund’s average daily net assets (including the value of preferred shares).
Trustees’ and Officers’ Compensation– The fund pays compensation to independent Trustees in the form of a retainer, attendance fees, and additional compensation to Board and Committee chairpersons. The fund does not pay compensation directly to Trustees or officers of the fund who are also officers of the investment adviser, all of whom receive remuneration from MFS for their services to the fund. Certain officers and Trustees of the fund are officers or directors of MFS and MFSC.
49
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) – continued
Other– This fund and certain other funds managed by MFS (the funds) have entered into a service agreement (the ISO Agreement) which provides for payment of fees solely by the funds to Tarantino LLC in return for the provision of services of an Independent Senior Officer (ISO) for the funds. Frank L. Tarantino serves as the ISO and is an officer of the funds and the sole member of Tarantino LLC. The funds can terminate the ISO Agreement with Tarantino LLC at any time under the terms of the ISO Agreement. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, the fee paid by the fund under this agreement was $83 and is included in “Miscellaneous” expense in the Statement of Operations. MFS has agreed to bear all expenses associated with office space, other administrative support, and supplies provided to the ISO.
(4) Portfolio Securities
For the six months ended May 31, 2019, purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $14,149,617 and $13,795,495, respectively.
(5) Shares of Beneficial Interest
The fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest. The fund reserves the right to repurchase shares of beneficial interest of the fund subject to Trustee approval.
On March 12, 2018, the fund commenced a cash tender offer for up to 7.5% of the fund’s outstanding common shares at a price per share equal to 98% of the fund’s net asset value per share calculated at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the expiration date of the offer. This tender offer expired on May 2, 2018, at which time the offer was oversubscribed. The fund purchased the maximum number of shares offered in the tender offer (738,668 common shares representing 7.5% of the fund’s then outstanding common shares). The purchase price of the properly tendered shares was equal to $10.084 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $7,448,728. As a result of this tender offer, payment was made by the fund on May 7, 2018, at which time 738,668 common shares outstanding were retired.
During the six months ended May 31, 2019 and the year ended November 30, 2018, the fund did not repurchase any additional shares other than through this tender offer and there were no other transactions in fund shares.
(6) Line of Credit
The fund and certain other funds managed by MFS participate in a $1.25 billion unsecured committed line of credit, subject to a $1 billion sublimit, provided by a syndicate of banks under a credit agreement. Borrowings may be made for temporary financing needs. Interest is charged to each fund, based on its borrowings, generally at a rate equal to the highest of one month LIBOR, the Federal Funds Effective Rate and the Overnight Bank Funding Rate, plus an agreed upon spread. A commitment fee, based on the average daily, unused portion of the committed line of credit, is allocated among the participating funds. In addition, the fund and other funds managed by MFS have established unsecured uncommitted borrowing arrangements with certain banks for temporary financing needs. Interest is charged to each fund, based on its borrowings, at rates equal to customary reference rates plus an agreed upon spread. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, the fund’s commitment fee and interest expense were $278 and $0, respectively, and are included in “Interest expense and fees” in the Statement of Operations.
50
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) – continued
(7) Preferred Shares
The fund has 1,950 shares issued and outstanding of VMTPS. The outstanding VMTPS are redeemable at the option of the fund in whole or in part at the liquidation preference of $25,000 per share, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends, but generally solely for the purpose of decreasing the leverage of the fund. The VMTPS are subject to a mandatory term redemption date of October 31, 2021, as extended, unless further extended through negotiation with the private holders of the VMTPS. There is no assurance that the term of the VMTPS will be extended or that the VMTPS will be replaced with any other preferred shares or other form of leverage upon the redemption of the VMTPS. Two months prior to the term redemption date of the VMTPS, the fund is required to begin to segregate liquid assets with the fund’s custodian to fund the redemption. Dividends on the VMTPS are cumulative and are reset weekly to a fixed spread against the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) Municipal Swap Index. During the six months ended May 31, 2019, the VMTPS dividend rates ranged from 2.43% to 3.45%. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, the average dividend rate was 2.77%.
In the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities, the VMTPS aggregate liquidation preference is shown as a liability since they have a stated mandatory redemption date. Dividends paid to the VMTPS are treated as interest expense and recorded as incurred. For the six months ended May 31, 2019, interest expense related to the dividends paid to VMTPS amounted to $700,485 and is included in “Interest expense and fees” in the Statement of Operations. Costs directly related to the issuance of the VMTPS are considered debt issuance costs. Debt issuance costs are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability and are being amortized into interest expense over the life of the VMTPS. Theperiod-end carrying value for the VMTPS in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities is its liquidation value less any unamortized debt issuance costs, which approximates its fair value. Its fair value would be considered level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.
Under the terms of a purchase agreement between the fund and the investor in the VMTPS, the fund is subject to various investment restrictions. These investment-related requirements are in various respects more restrictive than those to which the fund is otherwise subject in accordance with its investment objectives and policies. In addition, the fund is subject to certain restrictions on its investments imposed by guidelines of the rating agencies that rate the VMTPS, which guidelines may be changed by the applicable rating agency, in its sole discretion, from time to time. These guidelines may impose asset coverage or portfolio composition requirements that are more stringent than those imposed on the fund by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”).
The fund is required to maintain certain asset coverage with respect to the VMTPS as defined in the fund’s governing documents and the 1940 Act. One of a number of asset coverage-related requirements is that the fund is not permitted to declare or pay common share dividends unless immediately thereafter the fund has a minimum asset coverage ratio of 200% with respect to the VMTPS after deducting the amount of such common share dividends.
51
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) – continued
The 1940 Act requires that the preferred shareholders of the fund, voting as a separate class, have the right to elect at least two trustees at all times, and elect a majority of the trustees at any time when dividends on the preferred shares are unpaid for two full years. Unless otherwise required by law or under the terms of the preferred shares, each preferred share is entitled to one vote and preferred shareholders will vote together with common shareholders as a single class.
Leverage involves risks and special considerations for the fund’s common shareholders. To the extent that investments are purchased by the fund with proceeds from the issuance of preferred shares, the fund’s net asset value will increase or decrease at a greater rate than a comparable unleveraged fund. Changes in the value of the fund’s portfolio will be borne entirely by the common shareholders. It is possible that the fund will be required to sell assets at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so in order to redeem preferred shares to comply with asset coverage or other restrictions including those imposed by the 1940 Act and the rating agencies that rate the preferred shares. There is no assurance that the fund’s leveraging strategy will be successful.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of MFS Investment Grade Municipal Trust:
We have reviewed the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of MFS Investment Grade Municipal Trust (the Fund), including the portfolio of investments, as of May 31, 2019, and the related statements of operations, changes in net assets, cash flows and financial highlights for thesix-month period ended May 31, 2019. These interim financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management.
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements and financial highlights for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the statement of changes in net assets for the year ended November 30, 2018 and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended November 30, 2018, and in our report dated January 17, 2019, we expressed an unqualified opinion on such statement of changes in net assets and financial highlights.
