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.

		Automated Phone System Insuring Clause
		Loss resulting directly from the ASSURED having transferred funds on the faith of any Automated

		unauthorized or fraudulent and is made with the intent to deceive. In order for coverage to apply under
		this Insuring Clause the ASSURED shall maintain and follow all APS Designated Procedures with
		respect to APS Transactions. The isolated failure of the ASSURED to maintain and follow a particular

		Phone System Insuring Clause subject to the exclusions herein and in this Bond.
(2	)	For purposes of this endorsement, the following terms shall apply:
		Automated Phone System or APS means an automated system which receives and converts to
		executable instructions transmissions over the telephone through use of a touch-tone keypad or other

		use of a telephone keypad or voice recognition system. These features include account statements,

		telephone balance consent and change of address.
		APS Exchange means any exchange of shares in a registered account of one Fund into shares in an
		account with the same tax identification number and same ownership-type code of another Fund in the
		same complex pursuant to exchange privileges of the two Funds, which exchange is requested over the
		telephone by means of information transmitted by an Individual caller through use of a telephone
		keypad or voice recognition system.
		APS Designated Procedures means all of the following procedures:

		and the records shall be retained for at least six (6) months. Information contained in the records
		shall be capable of being retrieved and produced within a reasonable time after retrieval of
		specific information is requested, at a success rate of no less than 85 percent.
(3	)	Identity Test: The caller in any request for an APS Transaction, must first input his/her account
		number, the last four digits of his/her social security number, and finally, his/her personal
		identification number (“PIN”). It is proposed that in addition to this procedure, a customer may:
		(a)	begin by saying or pressing his/her account number, then say or press his/her PIN, or
		(b)	begin by saying or pressing his/her social security number, then say or press his/her PIN
and lastly, say name of fund or account number (or press account number).

			attempts, the caller must not be allowed additional attempts during the same telephone call
			to enter the PIN. The caller may either be instructed to redial a customer service
representative or may be immediately connected to such a representative.
		(d)	Written Confirmation: A written confirmation of any APS Purchase, Redemption, Exchange
			or change of address shall be mailed to the shareholder(s) to whose account such
			transaction relates, at the record address, by the end of the ASSURED’S next regular
			processing cycle, but in no event later than five (5) business days following such APS
			Transaction.
		(e)	Access to APS Equipment: Access to the equipment which permits the entity receiving the
			APS Transaction request to process and effect the transaction shall be limited in the
			following manner: The Shareholder Services Group, Inc., accesses the hardware housing
			the Mutual Fund On-Line system which effects transactions.
(3) With respect to the coverage afforded pursuant to the Automated Phone Systems Insuring Clause, this
Bond does not directly or indirectly cover any loss resulting from:
(1	)	the redemption of shares, where the proceeds of such redemption are made payable to other than
		(i) the shareholder of record, or (ii) a person designated to receive redemption proceeds, or (iii) a
		bank account designated to receive redemption proceeds; or

		redemption, or (ii) designated, or (iii) verified by any other procedures, if such procedures are
		stated below in this Endorsement; or
(3	)	the redemption of shares, where the proceeds of such redemption are paid by wire transfer to
		other than the shareholders designated bank account of record; or
(4	)	the intentional failure to adhere to one or more APS Designated Procedures.

						of their ability electronically record all voice instructions or advices received over
						telephone. The ASSURED or its agent(s) warrant that they shall make their best
						efforts to maintain the electronic recording system on a continuous basis.
						Nothing, however, in this endorsement shall bar the ASSURED from recovery
						where no recording is available because of mechanical failure of the device

						Employee(s) or agent(s) of the ASSURED.
		(B)		Loss resulting by reason of the ASSURED having transferred, paid, or delivered
				any funds or property, established any credit, debited any account or given any value

				or acknowledging the transfer, payment, delivery or receipt of funds or property which
				instructions were transmitted over the Internet directly to the ASSURED and
				fraudulently purport to have been sent by a customer, an office of the ASSURED or

				modified during transmission over the Internet to the ASSURED.

		“Computer System” means:

			prepare, supply service, write or implement programs for the ASSURED'S Computer
			System. This exclusion shall only apply to that customer's account.

4	.	The coverage afforded by this endorsement applies only to loss discovered by the ASSURED
		during the period this endorsement is in force.
5	.	All loss or series of losses involving the fraudulent activity in which one individual is
		implicated, whether or not that individual is specifically identified, shall be treated as one
		loss. A series of losses involving unidentified individuals but arising from the same method of
		operation may be deemed by the COMPANY to involve the same individual and in that event
		shall be treated as one loss.
6	.	The COMPANY’S maximum Limit of Liability for this Computer Systems And Voice Instructions
		Insuring Clause is $9,000,000., and is subject to a deductible of $50,000, which applies to
		each and every loss.
7	.	If any loss is covered under this Insuring Clause and any other Insuring Clause or Coverage,
		the maximum amount payable for such loss shall not exceed the largest amount available under
		anyone Insuring Clause or Coverage.
8	.	Coverage under this endorsement shall terminate upon termination or cancellation of the bond
		to which this endorsement is attached. Coverage under this endorsement may also be
		terminated or cancelled without cancelling the bond as an entirety:
		(a)	ninety (90) days after receipt by the ASSURED of written notice from the COMPANY

			to terminate or cancel coverage under this endorsement.
		The COMPANY shall refund to the ASSURED the unearned premium for this coverage under

		and
		Limitations of this bond is amended by adding the following
		sentence:
			Proof of loss resulting from voice instructions or advices covered under this bond
shall include electronic recordings of such voice instructions or advices.
10	.	Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, coverage afforded by this endorsement is not
		designed to provide protection against loss covered under a separate Electronic and
		Computer Crime Policy by whatever title assigned or written by any insurer. Any loss which is
		covered under such separate Policy is excluded from coverage under this bond; and the
		ASSURED agrees to make claim for such loss under its separate Policy.
The title and any headings in this endorsement/rider are solely for convenience and form no part of the

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.

10-02-1281 (Ed. 1/2003)

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-.

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.

$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.
