                 ISSUED BY SUN LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY OF CANADA (U.S.)


     Effective November 1, 1999, with the addition of a new Series -- the
Strategic Growth Series -- to the MFS/Sun Life Series Trust (the "Series
Fund"), you may allocate your money among 26 variable investment options
available under the MFS Regatta Platinum Variable and Fixed Annuity. Market
conditions will determine the value of an investment in the Strategic Growth
Series and any other Series of the Series Fund. The Strategic Growth Series
and the other Series of the Series Fund are described in the Series Fund
prospectus, as supplemented.

     As a result of the addition of the Strategic Growth Series, the Profile
dated May 1, 1999 (the "Profile") and the Prospectus dated May 1, 1999 (the
"Prospectus") are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

     1. The third paragraph of Section 1, The MFS Regatta Platinum Annuity,
of the Profile and the second paragraph on the cover page of the Prospectus
are each amended by deleting the first sentence in its entirety and replacing
it with the following:

     "You may choose among 26 variable investment options and a range of
fixed options."

     2. The list of the available investing options appearing in Section 4,
Allocation Options, of the Profile and on the cover page of the Prospectus is

</TABLE>

<PAGE>

          (4)  MFS has contractually agreed to bear the Series' expenses such
               that "Other Expenses" will not exceed 0.28% annually. This
               contractual arrangement will remain in effect until at least
               May 1, 2000, absent an earlier modification by the Series
               Fund's Board of Trustees.

               Additionally, the Series has an expenses offset arrangement
               which reduces its custodian fee based upon the amount of cash
               maintained by the Series with its custodian and dividend
               disbursing agent. The Series may enter into other similar
               arrangements and directed brokerage arrangements, which would
               also have the effect of reducing the Series' expenses. The
               Series' expenses do not take into account these expense
               reductions, and therefore do not represent the actual expenses
               of the Series. If these expense reductions had been taken
               into account, "Total Fund Expenses" for the Series would be
               1.00%.

     4. The "Examples" presented on page 6 of the Prospectus are supplemented
as follows:


     If you surrender your Contract at the end of the applicable time period,
you would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment, assuming a 5%
annual return:

     If you do NOT surrender your Contract, or if you annuitize at the end of
the applicable time period, you would pay the following expenses on a $1,000
investment, assuming a 5% annual return:

                               1 YEAR      3 YEAR       5 YEAR    10 YEARS

beginning on page 8 of the Prospectus, is supplemented as follows:


             "STRATEGIC GROWTH SERIES will seek capital appreciation."


THIS SUPPLEMENT IS NOT VALID UNLESS ACCOMPANIED OR PRECEDED BY THE CURRENT
PROSPECTUS OF MFS REGATTA PLATINUM VARIABLE AND FIXED ANNUITY, DATED MAY 1,

Item 26. PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH THE DEPOSITOR OR
         REGISTRANT

     No person is directly or indirectly controlled by the Registrant. The
Registrant is a separate account of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada
(U.S.), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life of Canada (U.S.) Holdings,
Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada -
U.S. Operations Holdings, Inc., which is in turn a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada.


     The organizational chart of Sun Life Assurance of Canada is included as
Exhibit 16 hereto.



<PAGE>

     None of the companies listed in Exhibit 16 hereto is a subsidiary of the
Registrant; therefore, the only financial statements being filed are those of
Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.).

Item 27. NUMBER OF CONTRACT OWNERS:

     As of August 31, 1999, there were 56,878 qualified and 111,072
non-qualified Contracts issued by the Registrant.

Item 28. INDEMNIFICATION

     Pursuant to Section 145 of the Delaware Corporation Law, Article 8 of
the By-laws of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.), a copy of which
was filed as Exhibit 3(b) to the Registration Statement of the Depositor on
Form S-1, File No. 33-29851, provides for the indemnification of directors,
officers and employees of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.).

     Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (U.S.) pursuant to the certificate of
incorporation, by-laws, or otherwise, Sun Life (U.S.) has been advised that
in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by Sun Life (U.S.) of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer, controlling person of Sun Life (U.S.) in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being registered, Sun Life (U.S.) will submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by them is against
public policy as expressed in the Act, unless in the opinion of their counsel
the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 29. PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITERS

     (a) Clarendon Insurance Agency, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Depositor, acts as general distributor for the Registrant, Sun Life of Canada
(U.S.) Variable Accounts C, D, E, G, H and I, Sun Life (N.Y.) Variable
Accounts A, B and C, and Money Market Variable Account, High Yield Variable
Account, Capital Appreciation Variable Account, Government Securities
Variable Account, World Governments Variable Account, Total Return Variable
Account, and Managed Sectors Variable Account.
