Nonpayment of premium;

Discovery of fraud or material misrepresentation in obtaining this Bond or in the presentation of a claim thereunder;

Conviction of the ASSURED of a crime arising out of acts increasing the hazard insured against;

Material change in the risk which increases the risk of loss after insurance coverage has been issued or renewed, except to the extent that the COMPANY should reasonably have foreseen the change, or contemplated the risk when the contract was written;

Determination by the Commissioner that the continuation of the Bond would jeopardize a COMPANY’S solvency or would place the COMPANY in violation of the insurance laws of any state;

Determination by the Commissioner that continuation of the present premium volume of the COMPANY would jeopardize the COMPANY’S policyholders, creditors or the public;

Such other reasons that are approved by the Commissioner;

Determination by the Commissioner that the COMPANY no longer has adequate reinsurance to meet the ASSUREDS needs;

10.

Substantial breaches of contractual duties, conditions or warranties; or

11.

Unfavorable underwriting facts, specific to the ASSURED, existing that were not present at the inception of the Bond.

If this Bond has been in effect for sixty (60) days or less, and it is not a renewal Bond, the COMPANY may terminate for any reason by providing written notice of termination at least sixty (60) days before the effective date of termination.

Notice Of Termination

Notice of termination under this Section shall be mailed or delivered, by certified mail, return receipt provided by the United States Postal Service, to the ASSURED and to the authorized agent or broker, if any, at least sixty (60) days prior to the effective date of cancellation at the address shown on the DECLARATIONS of this Bond.

All notice of cancellation shall state the reason(s) for cancellation.

There is no liability on the part of, and no cause of action of any nature shall arise against, the COMPANY, its authorized representatives, its employees, or any firm, person or corporation furnishing to the COMPANY, information relating to the reasons for cancellation or nonrenewal, for any statement made by them in complying or enabling the COMPANY to comply with this Section, for the provision of information pertaining thereto, or for statements made or evidence submitted at any hearings conducted in connection therewith, if such information was provided in good faith and without malice.

Notice Of Nonrenewal

If the COMPANY elects not to renew this Bond, the COMPANY shall mail or deliver written notice, by certified mail, return receipt, provided by the United States Postal Service, to the ASSURED, at his last known address, at least sixty (60) days before the expiration date or before the anniversary date, if this Bond has been written for a term of more than one (1) year.

Such notice shall contain all of the following:

Return Premium Calculations

Any unearned premiums which have been paid by the ASSURED shall be refunded to the ASSURED on a pro rata basis if terminated by the COMPANY or the ASSURED. The unearned premiums shall be refunded to the ASSURED within forty-five (45) days of receipt of the request for cancellation or the effective date of cancellation, whichever is later.

Conditional Renewal

If the COMPANY offers or purports to renew the Bond, but on less favorable terms or at higher rates, the new terms or higher premiums may take effect on the renewal date, if the COMPANY mails or delivers by certified mail, return receipt provided by the United States Postal Service, to the ASSURED, notice of the new terms or premiums at least sixty (60) days prior to the renewal date. If the COMPANY notifies the ASSURED within sixty (60) days prior to the renewal date, the new terms or premiums do not take effect until sixty (60) days after the notice is mailed or delivered, in which case, the ASSURED may elect to cancel the renewal Bond within the sixty (60) day period. If the COMPANY does not notify the ASSURED of the new terms or premiums, the COMPANY shall continue the Bond at the expiring terms and premiums until notice is given or until the effective date of replacement coverage is obtained by the ASSURED, whichever occurs first.”

2.	It is further understood and agreed that for the purposes of Section 13., Termination, any occurrence listed in this Section shall be considered to be a request by the ASSURED to immediately terminate this Bond.

This Endorsement applies to loss discovered after 12:01 a.m. on November 1, 2009.

POLICYHOLDER DISCLOSURE NOTICE OF

TERRORISM INSURANCE COVERAGE

(for policies with no terrorism exclusion or sublimit)

You are hereby notified that, under the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (the “Act”), effective December 26, 2007, this policy makes available to you insurance for losses arising out of certain acts of terrorism. Terrorism is defined as any act certified by the Secretary of the Treasury, in concurrence with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General of the United States, to be an act of terrorism; to be a violent act or an act that is dangerous to human life, property or infrastructure; to have resulted in damage within the United States, or outside the United States in the case of an air carrier or vessel or the premises of a United States Mission; and to have been committed by an individual or individuals as part of an effort to coerce the civilian population of the United States or to influence the policy or affect the conduct of the United States Government by coercion.

You should know that the insurance provided by your policy for losses caused by acts of terrorism is partially reimbursed by the United States under the formula set forth in the Act. Under this formula, the United States pays 85% of covered terrorism losses that exceed the statutorily established deductible to be paid by the insurance company providing the coverage.

However, if aggregate insured losses attributable to terrorist acts certified under the Act exceed $100 billion in a Program Year (January 1 through December 31), the Treasury shall not make any payment for any portion of the amount of such losses that exceeds $100 billion.

If aggregate insured losses attributable to terrorist acts certified under the Act exceed $100 billion in a Program Year (January 1 through December 31) and we have met our insurer deductible under the Act, we shall not be liable for the payment of any portion of the amount of such losses that exceeds $100 billion, and in such case insured losses up to that amount are subject to pro rata allocation in accordance with procedures established by the Secretary of the Treasury.

The portion of your policy’s annual premium that is attributable to insurance for such acts of terrorism is: $ -0-.

If you have any questions about this notice, please contact your agent or broker.

Re:	Financial Strength

Insuring Company: FEDERAL INSURANCE COMPANY

Dear MASSACHUSETTS FINANCIAL SERVICES COMPANY DBA MFS INVESTMENT

Chubb continues to deliver strong financial performance. Our financial strength, as reflected in our published reports and our ratings, should give you peace of mind that Chubb will be there for you when you need us most.

•

Chubb’s financial results during calendar year 2009 stand out in the industry.

•

Chubb’s balance sheet is backed with investments that we believe emphasize quality, safety, and liquidity, with total invested assets of $42.0 billion as of September 30, 2009.

•

With 127 years in the business, Chubb is here for the long term, which is why we vigorously guard our financial strength and take what we believe is a prudent approach to assuming risk - on both the asset and liability sides of our balance sheet.

•

Chubb is one of the most highly rated property and casualty companies in the industry, which is a reflection of our overall quality, strong financial condition, and strong capital position.

•

Chubb’s financial strength rating is “A++” from A.M. Best Company, “AA” from Fitch, “Aa2” from Moody’s, and “AA” from Standard & Poor’s – the leading independent evaluators of the insurance industry.

•

Chubb’s senior unsecured corporate debt rating from Standard & Poor’s was upgraded from “A” to “A+” on December 15, 2008. Standard & Poor’s also reaffirmed all of Chubb’s ratings with a “stable” outlook.

•

A.M. Best, Fitch, and Moody’s recently affirmed all of Chubb’s ratings with a “stable” outlook. (For reference, A.M. Best reaffirmed us on 12/23/08, Fitch on 2/13/09, and Moody’s on 2/4/09.)

•

For more than 50 years, Chubb has remained part of an elite group of insurers that have maintained A.M. Best’s highest ratings.

•

Chubb was named to Standard & Poor’s list of S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats, one of 52 companies in the S&P 500 index that have increased dividends every year for at least 25 consecutive years.

•

Chubb’s investment portfolio has held up extremely well. Chubb takes what we believe is a conservative approach to selecting and managing our assets. Furthermore, Chubb does not have any direct exposure to the subprime mortgage-backed securities market, and we stopped doing new credit derivative business in 2003 and put existing business in runoff.

Rarely has Chubb’s business philosophy – to underwrite conservatively and invest judiciously – been more important than it is today. By adhering to this philosophy, we now have the capacity and flexibility to respond to opportunities, especially when you engage us in fully understanding your business risks.

We want you to know that Chubb is well-positioned to continue serving your needs with our underwriting expertise; broad underwriting appetite across all property, casualty, and specialty lines; and claim services. If you have any questions, feel free to call your agent or broker or your local Chubb underwriter. As always, we appreciate the trust you place in us as your insurance partner.

ZURICH AGENT/BROKER COMPENSATION DISCLOSURE

Dear Policyholder:

On behalf of Zurich, we are glad you have chosen us as your insurance company. We look forward to meeting your insurance needs and want you to understand clearly our business relationship with the agent or broker you chose to represent your company’s interests in the placement of insurance coverages.

As is the case with many insurance companies in the United States, Zurich distributes many of its insurance products through agents or brokers. This means that your agent or broker is not employed by Zurich and, in fact, may represent many insurance companies. Because we do not employ your agent or broker, the way they are compensated may vary. We recommend you discuss these arrangements with your agent or broker.

Many insurance representatives are compensated for their services by insurance companies with whom they place the insurance that they sell to their customers. Some customers choose to compensate their representatives directly with a fee. In certain situations, we may pay a commission to representatives who are also directly compensated by their customers, but only if the customer has agreed to it and only where it is permitted by law.

In consideration of payment of the premium and in reliance upon all statements made and information furnished to the Zurich American Insurance Company ( herein called the Underwriter ) and to the Insurers of the Underlying Insurance, including the statements made in the application and its attachments and any material submitted therewith, all of which are made a part hereof, and subject to the Declarations and the limitations, conditions, provisions, and other terms of this policy (including any endorsements hereto), the Underwriter, the Parent Company and the Insureds agree as follows:

I.	INSURING CLAUSE

The Underwriter shall provide the Insureds with insurance coverage during the Policy Period excess of the Underlying Insurance. Coverage under this policy shall attach only after all of the Limit(s) of Liability of Underlying Insurance has been exhausted by the actual payment of loss(es). Except as otherwise provided herein, coverage under this policy shall then apply in conformance with and subject to the warranties, limitations, conditions, provisions, and other terms of the Primary Policy as in effect the first day of the Policy Period, together with the warranties and limitations of any other Underlying Insurance. In no event shall coverage under this policy be broader than coverage under any Underlying Insurance.

II.	DEFINITIONS

When used in this policy:

Insured, either in the singular or plural, means those organizations designated as insureds under the Primary Policy.

Parent Company means the organization designated in Item 1 of the Declarations of this policy.

Policy Period means the period of time specified in Item 4 of the Declarations of this policy, subject to prior termination in accordance with Subsection III.H. of this policy. If this period is less than or greater than one year, the Limit of Liability specified in Item 2 of the Declarations of this policy shall be the Underwriter’s maximum limit of liability under this policy for the entire period.

Primary Policy means the policy designated in Item 3(A) of the Declarations of this policy.

Underlying Insurance means all of those policy(ies) designated in Item 3 of the Declarations of this policy.

III.	GENERAL CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS

MAINTENANCE OF UNDERLYING INSURANCE

The Limit(s) of Liability of the Underlying Insurance scheduled in Item 3 of the Declarations of this policy shall be maintained during the Policy Period in full effect with solvent insurers except for any reduction or exhaustion of the aggregate Limit(s) of Liability available under the Underlying Insurance solely by reason of actual payment of loss(es) thereunder. Failure to comply with the foregoing shall not invalidate this policy but the Underwriter shall not be liable to a greater extent than if this condition had been complied with. To the extent that any Underlying Insurance is not so maintained, then the Insureds shall be deemed to be self-insured for the amount of the Limit(s) of Liability of any such Underlying Insurance.

In the event of a change to any Underlying Insurance by rewrite, endorsement or otherwise, coverage under this policy shall become subject to such change only if and to the extent the Underwriter’s consent to such change is endorsed in writing to this policy. If such consent is not endorsed in writing on to this policy, the Underwriter shall not be liable to a greater extent than it would have been in the absence of such change to the Underlying Insurance.

REDUCTION/EXHAUSTION OF UNDERLYING LIMITS

In the event and only in the event of the reduction or exhaustion of the Limit(s) of Liability of the Underlying Insurance solely as the result of actual payment of loss covered thereunder, this policy shall: (i) in the event of reduction, pay excess of the reduced Limit(s) of Liability of the Underlying Insurance, and (ii) in the event of exhaustion, continue in force as primary insurance excess of the retention applicable in the Primary Policy, which retention shall be applied to any subsequent loss as specified in the Primary Policy.

Notwithstanding any of the terms of this policy which might be construed otherwise, this policy shall drop down only in the event of reduction or exhaustion of the Underlying Insurance by the actual payment of loss and shall not drop down for any other reason including, but not limited to, uncollectibility (in whole or in part) of any Underlying Insurance. The risk of uncollectibility of such Underlying Insurance (in whole or in part) whether because of financial impairment or insolvency of the underlying insurer or for any other reason, is expressly retained by the Insureds and is not in any way or under any circumstances insured or assumed by the Underwriter.

LIMIT OF LIABILITY

The amount set forth in Item 2 of the Declarations is the maximum aggregate liability of the Underwriter under this policy with respect to all loss covered by the Underlying Insurance in effect during the Policy Period.

INVESTIGATION

The Underwriter may, at its sole discretion, elect to participate in the investigation of any matter covered by this policy even if the Underlying Insurance has not been exhausted and the Insureds shall give the Underwriter such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require.

SUBROGATION

In that this policy is “Excess Coverage,” the Insureds’ right of recovery against any person or entity may not be exclusively subrogated to the Underwriter. Therefore, in the event of any payment under this policy, the Underwriter will act in concert with all other interests (including the Insureds’) concerned in the exercise of such rights of recovery. The apportioning of amounts which may be so recovered shall follow the principle that any interests (including the Insureds’) that shall have paid an amount over and above any payment hereunder, shall first be reimbursed up to the amount paid by them; the Underwriter is then to be reimbursed out of any balance then remaining up to the amount paid hereunder; lastly the interests (including the Insureds’) of which this coverage is in excess are entitled to claim the residue, if any. Expenses necessary to the recovery of any such amounts shall be apportioned between the interests (including the Insureds’) concerned, in the ratio of their respective recoveries as finally settled.

NOTICE AND PROOF OF LOSS

The Insureds shall, as a condition precedent to exercising their rights under this policy, give to the Underwriter written notice of loss or of an occurrence which may become a loss and proof of loss in the same manner required by the terms and conditions of the Primary Policy.

The Underwriter shall be given notice in writing as soon as practicable in the event of (a) the termination of any Underlying Insurance, (b) any additional or return premiums charged or allowed in connection with any Underlying Insurance, or (c) any change to the Underlying Insurance by rewrite, endorsement or otherwise. Written notice to the Underwriter shall be given to Zurich American Insurance Company, One Liberty Plaza, 30th Floor, New York, New York 10006, Attention: Executive Assurance Department.

ALTERATION

No change in, modification of, or assignment of interest under this policy shall be effective except when made by a written endorsement to this policy which is signed by an authorized representative of the Underwriter.

POLICY TERMINATION

This policy shall terminate at the earliest of the following times:

the effective date of termination specified in written prior notice by the Parent Company to the Underwriter,

ninety (90) days after receipt by the Parent Company of a written notice of termination from the Underwriter.

upon expiration of the Policy Period as set forth in Item 4 of the Declarations,

ten (10) days after receipt by the Parent Company of a written notice of termination from the Underwriter for failure to pay a premium when due,

at such time as may be agreed upon by the Underwriter and the Parent Company.

The Underwriter shall refund the unearned premium computed at customary short rates if the policy is terminated by the Parent Company. Under any other circumstances the refund shall be computed pro rata.

IMPORTANT NOTICE – In Witness Clause

In return for the payment of premium, and subject to the terms of this policy, coverage is provided as stated in this policy.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Company has executed and attested these presents and, where required by law, has caused this policy to be countersigned by its duly Authorized Representative(s).

FIDELITY BOND CLAIM AGREEMENT

THIS MASTER FIDELITY BOND CLAIM AGREEMENT dated November 1, 1993, as amended and restated June 12, 2002, as amended and restated March 1, 2008, by and among (i) each of the funds listed from time to time in Exhibit A (collectively, the “Funds” or “Fund Parties”) and (ii) Massachusetts Financial Services Company (“MFS”), MFS Service Center, Inc. (“MFSC”), MFS Fund Distributors, Inc. (“MFD”), MFS Heritage Trust Company, MFS Institutional Advisors, Inc., and MFS International Ltd., (collectively, the “MFS Parties”).

WHEREAS, MFS or certain other MFS Parties act as investment adviser to all of the Funds and certain other clients, MFD acts as distributor for certain of the Funds and MFSC acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for certain of the Funds; and from time to time hereafter each may act in the same capacities with respect to other clients including other investment companies;

WHEREAS, all the parties hereto are named insureds under broker’s blanket bonds issued by each of the insurance companies listed from time to time in Exhibit B, and/or such other insurance companies as from time to time may insure parties hereto as such bonds may be amended and/or restated from time to time (collectively the “Bonds”);

WHEREAS, the parties desire to establish (i) the criteria by which the premium for the Bonds shall be allocated among the parties, (ii) the basis on which additional investment companies for which MFS, or any subsidiary thereof, may hereafter act as investment adviser and/or for which MFD may act as distributor, and additional affiliates of MFS may from time to time be added as named insureds under the Bonds and (iii) the criteria by which losses in excess of the face amounts of the Bonds shall be allocated among the parties.

NOW THEREFORE, it is agreed as follows:

1. Each of the Funds shall pay a portion of each premium which shall be determined as of a specified date (the “Date”) which is the same date for all Fund Parties by calculating the proportion which the minimum amount of fidelity bond coverage required for such Fund (calculated in accordance with Rule 17g-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (“Rule 17g-1”)) bears to the total amount of coverage provided for under the Bonds and applying said proportion to the total annual premium. The amount remaining after calculating the portions of the premium to be paid by the Funds shall be paid by MFS or such MFS Parties as MFS shall determine.

2. If one or more of the insurance companies listed in Exhibit B (or such other insurers as from time to time may insure the parties hereto) are willing without additional premium until the next renewal date to add, as an insured under any of the Bonds, (i) any investment company permitted to be included on the Bonds pursuant to Rule 17g-1 for which MFS (or any subsidiary thereof) may act as investment adviser

and/or for which MFD may act as distributor, or (ii) any affiliate of MFS permitted to be included on the Bonds pursuant to Rule 17g-1, the parties hereto agree (a) that such addition may be made, (b) that such investment company shall become a party to this Agreement and be included within the terms “Funds” and “Fund Parties” and (c) that such affiliate shall become a party to this Agreement and be included within the term “MFS Parties.”

3. In the event that the claims of loss of two or more insureds under the Bonds are so related that the insurer is entitled to assert that the claims must be aggregated with the result that the claims exceed the face amount of the Bonds but the total amount payable on such claims is limited to the face amount of the Bonds, the following rules for determining, as among such insureds, the priority of satisfaction of the claims under the Bonds shall apply:

A. All claims of Funds which have been duly proved and established under the Bonds shall be satisfied in full before satisfaction of any claims of MFS or other MFS Parties, if any.

B. If the claims of Funds which have been duly proved and established under the Bonds exceed the face amount of the Bonds, the insurance proceeds shall be applied to those claims in the following manner:

(i)

first, the insurance proceeds shall be applied to the claim of each Fund up to its respective minimum fidelity bond requirement as determined pursuant to paragraph one above with respect to the Funds; and

(ii)

the remaining amount of insurance proceeds then shall be applied to the unsatisfied claims of the Funds in proportion to their respective minimum fidelity bond requirements as determined pursuant to paragraph one above with respect to the Funds.

C. If after giving effect to Paragraph A there remains a portion of the insurance under the Bonds available for the satisfaction of claims of MFS or other MFS Parties, if any, which have been duly proved and established under the Bonds, such remainder shall be applied as MFS shall determine.

4. This Agreement hereby supercedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements among the parties hereto (or any two or more of them) (which other agreements may include other parties) relating to the subject matter hereof.

5. The Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

6. Exhibit A hereto may be amended from time to time to reflect the changes in the funds insured under the Bonds.

7. Exhibit B hereto may be amended from time to time to reflect the changes in the insurance companies issuing the Bonds.

8. A copy of the Declaration of Trust of each Fund is on file with the Secretary of State of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Each party hereto acknowledges that the obligations of or arising out of this Agreement are not binding upon any of the Fund’s Trustees, officers, employees, agents or shareholders individually, but are binding solely upon the assets and property of the Fund. If this Agreement is executed by the Fund on behalf of one or more series of the Fund, each party hereto further acknowledges that the assets and liabilities of each series are separate and distinct and that the obligations of or arising out of this Agreement concerning a series are binding solely upon the assets or property of such series and not upon the assets or property of any other series.

9. This Agreement may be amended or modified only with the prior written consent of the parties hereto.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed and delivered in their names and on their behalf by the undersigned officers, thereunto duly authorized, all as of the first day of March 2008.
