MFS INVESTMENT GRADE MUNICIPAL TRUST ANNOUNCES FINAL RESULTS OF TENDER OFFER
BOSTON (November 13, 2023) – MFS® Investment Grade Municipal Trust (the “Fund”) (NYSE: CXH) announced today that, in accordance with its tender offer for up to 10% of the Fund’s outstanding common shares (the “Shares”), which expired at 5:00 P.M., Eastern Standard Time, on November 6, 2023, the Fund has accepted 911,025 Shares, representing 10% of Shares, for payment on or about November 15, 2023.

A total of 3,875,017.30 Shares were properly tendered and not withdrawn by November 6, 2023, the final date for withdrawals.
