Eaton Vance closed-end funds (the “Funds”) declared distributions
These Funds make distributions in accordance with a managed distribution plan. Under the managed distribution plan, a Fund issues a notice to shareholders and a press release containing information about the amount and sources of the distribution and other related information on payment date of the distribution. A Fund’s distributions in any period may be more or less than the net return earned by the Fund on its investments, and therefore should not be used as a measure of performance or confused with “yield” or “income.” Distributions in excess of Fund returns will cause its net asset value to erode. Investors should not draw any conclusions about a Fund’s investment performance from the amount of its distribution or from the terms of its managed distribution plan.
The Distribution Rate at Market Price is based on the Fund’s most recent regular distribution per share (annualized) divided by the Fund’s market price at the end of the period. The Fund’s distribution may be comprised of ordinary income, net realized capital gains and returns of capital. A Fund’s distribution rate may be affected by numerous factors, counting changes in realized and projected market returns, Fund performance and other factors. There can be no assurance that an unanticipated change in market conditions or other unforeseen factors will not result in a change in a Fund’s distribution rate at a future time.
