P lease note that any ordinary income dividends that the fund may pay are not included in these estimates. These estimates only provide estimates of capital gain distributions. Actual distributions will be affected by a number of factors:  These estimates are computed through part of the year and do not reflect the full measurement period.  Portfolio trading over the next several weeks may affect the estimates; remember that these are actively managed funds.  Significant market movement and/or subscription/redemption activity can have a significant impact on these estimates.  These estimates do not reflect all required tax adjustments. Actual capital gain distributions will be affected by all required tax adjustments and may be substantially different from these estimates.  Because these are estimates, some of these funds may pay capital gains above or below these estimated ranges, and funds not currently expected to pay capital gains could be required to do so. MFS provides these estimates for informational purposes. Please remember that they are based on preliminary information and are subject to change.
