MFS Conservative Allocation R3
Investment Strategy
The investment seeks a high level of total return consistent with a conservative level of risk relative to the other MFS Asset Allocation Funds. The fund is designed to provide diversification among different asset classes by investing its assets in other mutual funds advised by the adviser, referred to as underlying funds. Within the stock fund allocations, the adviser seeks to diversify by geography (by including domestic and international underlying funds), in terms of market capitalization (by including large, mid, and small capitalization underlying funds), and by style (by including both growth and value underlying funds).Investment Expenses, Sales Charges, and Fees

Impact of Expenses and Fees
The table below assumes the investor invests $10,000 on the first day of year one and that the original investment earns a continuous 5% return. In addition, it assumes the
investor reinvests all earnings, and makes no additional contributions. The 5% rate of return is hypothetical and used only to illustrate the respective impacts of different fee
amounts on each investment. It is not intended to predict future investment returns.
Calculations are done by the 403bCompare site in an effort to provide a standardized comparison of the impact of all fees associated with an investment option. This includes all
required 403(b) product-level fees, and investment-level fees. For more information on fees or expenses associated with a 403(b) product or investment option, please refer
