objectives and policies.&nbsp;</B></FONT>Eaton Vance Senior Floating-Rate Trust (the &ldquo;Trust&rdquo;) is a diversified, closed-end
management investment company, which commenced operations on November 24, 2003. The Trust&rsquo;s investment objective is to provide
a high level of current income. The Trust may, as a secondary objective, also seek preservation of capital to the extent consistent
with its primary goal of high current income. The Trust will seek to achieve its investment objectives by investing primarily in
senior, secured floating-rate loans (&ldquo;Senior Loans&rdquo;). Floating-rate loans are loans in which the interest rate paid
fluctuates based on a reference rate. Under normal market conditions, Eaton Vance Management, the Trust's investment adviser, expects
the Trust to maintain an average duration of less than one year (including the effect of leverage).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Investment
Adviser.</B></FONT> The Trust&rsquo;s investment adviser is Eaton Vance Management (&ldquo;Eaton Vance&rdquo; or the &ldquo;Adviser&rdquo;).
As of December 31, 2019, Eaton Vance and its affiliates managed approximately $518.6 billion of fund and separate account assets
on behalf of clients, including approximately $34.2 billion in floating-rate income assets. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>The
Offering.</B></FONT> The Trust may offer, from time to time, in one or more offerings (each, an &ldquo;Offering&rdquo;), the Trust&rsquo;s
common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value (&ldquo;Common Shares&rdquo;). Common Shares may be offered at prices and
on terms to be set forth in one or more supplements to this Prospectus (each, a &ldquo;Prospectus Supplement&rdquo;). You should
read this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement carefully before you invest in Common Shares. Common Shares may be
offered directly to one or more purchasers, through agents designated from time to time by us, or to or through underwriters or
dealers. The Prospectus Supplement relating to the Offering will identify any agents, underwriters or dealers involved in the offer
or sale of Common Shares, and will set forth any applicable offering price, sales load, fee, commission or discount arrangement
between the Trust and its agents or underwriters, or among its underwriters, or the basis upon which such amount may be calculated,
net proceeds and use of proceeds, and the terms of any sale. The Trust may not sell any Common Shares through agents, underwriters
or dealers without delivery of a Prospectus Supplement describing the method and terms of the particular Offering of the Common
Shares. <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><I>(continued on inside cover page)</I></FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>The
Common Shares have traded both at a premium and a discount to net asset value (&ldquo;NAV&rdquo;).</B></FONT> The Trust cannot
predict whether Common Shares will trade in the future at a premium or discount to NAV. The provisions of the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the &ldquo;1940 Act&rdquo;), generally require that the public offering price of common shares (less any
underwriting commissions and discounts) must equal or exceed the NAV per share of a company&rsquo;s common stock (calculated within
48 hours of pricing). The Trust&rsquo;s issuance of Common Shares may have an adverse effect on prices in the secondary market
for the Trust&rsquo;s Common Shares by increasing the number of Common Shares available, which may put downward pressure on the
market price for the Trust&rsquo;s Common Shares. Shares of common stock of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at
a discount from NAV, which may increase investors&rsquo; risk of loss.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0"><FONT STYLE="color: windowtext">Investing in shares involves
certain risks, including that the Trust will invest substantial portions of its assets in below investment grade quality securities
with speculative characteristics. See &ldquo;Investment Objectives, Policies and Risks&rdquo; beginning at page 21.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (&ldquo;SEC&rdquo;)

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Portfolio
contents.</B></FONT> The Trust will pursue its objectives by investing its assets primarily in Senior Loans. Under normal market
conditions, the Trust will invest at least 80% of its total assets in Senior Loans of domestic and foreign borrowers that are denominated
in U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds, Swiss francs, Canadian dollars and Australian dollars (each, an &ldquo;Authorized Foreign
Currency&rdquo;). For the purposes of the 80% test, total assets is defined as net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes,
including any outstanding preferred shares. Senior Loans typically are secured with specific collateral and have a claim on the
assets and/or stock that is senior to subordinated debtholders and stockholders of the borrower. Senior Loans are made to corporations,
partnerships and other business entities (&ldquo;Borrowers&rdquo;) that operate in various industries and geographical regions,
including foreign Borrowers. Senior Loans pay interest at rates that are reset periodically on the basis of a floating base lending
rate plus a premium. Senior Loans typically are of below investment grade quality and have below investment grade credit ratings,
which ratings are associated with securities having high risk, speculative characteristics (sometimes referred to as &ldquo;junk&rdquo;).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Leverage.</B></FONT>
The Trust currently uses leverage created by issuing Auction Preferred Shares (&ldquo;APS&rdquo;) as well as by loans acquired
with borrowings. On January 26, 2004, the Trust issued 3,940 Series A APS, 3,940 Series B APS, 3,940 Series C APS and 3,940 Series
D APS, with a liquidation preference per share of $25,000 plus accumulated but unpaid dividends. On September 23, 2016, the Trust
repurchased 354 Series A APS, 354 Series B APS, 354 Series C APS and 354 Series D APS. On September 14, 2018, the Trust repurchased
220 Series A APS, 196 Series B APS, 221 Series C APS and 167 Series D APS. In addition, in connection with this repurchase, the
Trust has entered into a Credit Agreement (the &ldquo;Agreement&rdquo;) with a bank to borrow up to a limit of $255 million pursuant
to a 364-day revolving line of credit. The Trust is required to maintain certain net asset levels during the term of the Agreement.
As of October 31, 2019, the Trust had $218 million in outstanding borrowings, at an interest rate of 2.69%, in addition to outstanding
APS. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Adviser anticipates that the use of leverage (from the
issuance of APS and borrowings) will result in higher income to holders of Common Shares (&ldquo;Common Shareholders&rdquo;)
over time. Use of financial leverage creates an opportunity for increased income but, at the same time, creates special
risks. There can be no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful. The fee paid to Eaton Vance will be
calculated on the basis of the Trust&rsquo;s gross assets, including proceeds from the issuance of APS and borrowings, so the
fees will be higher when leverage is utilized. In this regard, holders of debt or preferred securities do not bear the
investment advisory fee. Rather, Common Shareholders bear the portion of the investment advisory fee attributable to the
assets purchased with the proceeds, which means that Common Shareholders effectively bear the entire advisory fee. See
&ldquo;Investment Objectives, Policies and Risks - Use of Leverage and Related Risks&rdquo; at page 33, &ldquo;Investment
Objectives, Policies and Risks - Additional Risk Considerations&rdquo; at page 36 and &ldquo;Description of Capital
Structure&rdquo; at page 47.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">THE TRUST</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Eaton Vance Senior Floating-Rate Trust (the &ldquo;Trust&rdquo;)
is a diversified, closed-end management investment company, which commenced operations on November 24, 2003. The Trust offers investors
the opportunity to receive a high level of current income, through a professionally managed portfolio investing primarily in senior,
secured floating-rate loans (&ldquo;Senior Loans&rdquo;), which are normally accessible only to financial institutions and large
corporate and institutional investors, and are not widely available to individual investors. To the extent consistent with this
objective, the Trust may also offer an opportunity for preservation of capital. Investments are based on Eaton Vance Management's
(&ldquo;Eaton Vance&rdquo; or the &ldquo;Adviser&rdquo;) internal research and ongoing credit analysis, which is generally not
available to individual investors. An investment in the Trust may not be appropriate for all investors. There is no assurance that
the Trust will achieve its investment objectives.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">THE OFFERING</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may offer, from time to time, in one or more offerings
(each, an &ldquo;Offering&rdquo;), up to 4,084,905 of the Trust&rsquo;s common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value (&ldquo;Common
Shares&rdquo;), on terms to be determined at the time of the Offering. The Common Shares may be offered at prices and on terms
to be set forth in one or more prospectus supplements. You should read this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement
carefully before you invest in Common Shares. Common Shares may be offered directly to one or more purchasers, through agents designated
from time to time by the Trust, or to or through underwriters or dealers. The Prospectus Supplement relating to the Offering will
identify any agents, underwriters or dealers involved in the offer or sale of Common Shares, and will set forth any applicable
offering price, sales load, fee, commission or discount arrangement between the Trust and its agents or underwriters, or among
its underwriters, or the basis upon which such amount may be calculated, net proceeds and use of proceeds, and the terms of any
sale. See &ldquo;Plan of Distribution.&rdquo; The Trust may not sell any of Common Shares through agents, underwriters or dealers
without delivery of a Prospectus Supplement describing the method and terms of the particular Offering of Common Shares.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, POLICIES AND RISKS</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust's investment objective is to provide a high level of
current income. The Trust may, as a secondary objective, also seek preservation of capital to the extent consistent with its primary
goal of high current income. Under normal market conditions, Eaton Vance expects the Trust to maintain a duration of less than
one year (including the effect of leverage). In comparison to maturity (which is the date on which a debt instrument ceases and
the issuer is obligated to repay the principal amount), duration is a measure of the price volatility of a debt instrument as a
result of changes in market rates of interest, based on the weighted average timing of the instrument's expected principal and
interest payments. Duration differs from maturity in that it considers a security's yield, coupon payments, principal payments
and call features in addition to the amount of time until the security finally matures. The Trust pursues its objectives by investing
primarily in Senior Loans. Senior Loans typically are secured with specific collateral and have a claim on the assets and/or stock
that is senior to subordinated debtholders and stockholders of the borrower. Senior Loans are loans in which the interest rate
paid fluctuates based on a reference rate. Senior Loans are made to corporations, partnerships and other business entities (&ldquo;Borrowers&rdquo;)
which operate in various industries and geographical regions. Senior Loans pay interest at rates that are reset periodically by
reference to a base lending rate, primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (&ldquo;LIBOR&rdquo;), plus a premium. Under normal
market conditions, at least 80% of the Trust's total assets will be invested in interests in Senior Loans of domestic and foreign
borrowers that are denominated in U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds, Swiss francs, Canadian dollars and Australian dollars (each
an &ldquo;Authorized Foreign Currency&rdquo;). For the purpose of the 80% test, total assets is defined as net assets plus any
borrowings for investment purposes, including any outstanding preferred shares. It is anticipated that the proceeds of the Senior
Loans in which the Trust will acquire interests primarily will be used to finance leveraged buyouts, recapitalizations, mergers,
acquisitions, stock repurchases, refinancing, and internal growth and for other corporate purposes of Borrowers.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may invest up to 20% of its total assets in (i) loan
interests which have (a) a second lien on collateral (&ldquo;Second Lien&rdquo;), (b) no security interest in the collateral, or
(c) lower than a senior claim on collateral; (ii) other income-producing securities, such as investment and non-investment grade
corporate debt securities and U.S. government and U.S. dollar-denominated foreign government or supranational debt securities;
and (iii) warrants and equity securities issued by a Borrower or its affiliates as part of a package of investments in the Borrower
or its affiliates. Corporate bonds of below investment grade quality (&ldquo;Non-Investment Grade Bonds&rdquo;), commonly referred
to as &ldquo;junk bonds,&rdquo; which are bonds that are rated below investment grade by each of the nationally recognized statistical
rating agencies (&ldquo;Rating Agencies&rdquo;) who cover the security, or, if unrated, are determined to be of comparable quality
by the Adviser. S&amp;P Global Ratings (&ldquo;S&amp;P&rdquo;) and Fitch Ratings (&ldquo;Fitch&rdquo;) consider securities rated </P>

Investors Service, Inc. (&ldquo;Moody&rsquo;s&rdquo;) considers securities rated below Baa3 to be below investment grade. The
Trust&rsquo;s credit quality policies apply only at the time a security is purchased, and the Trust is not required to
dispose of a security in the event of a downgrade of an assessment of credit quality or the withdrawal of a rating.
Securities rated in the lowest investment grade rating (BBB- or Baa3) may have certain speculative characteristics. Below
investment grade quality securities are considered to be predominantly speculative because of the credit risk of the issuers.
See &ldquo;Investment Objectives, Policies and Risks - Risk Considerations - Non-Investment Grade Bonds Risk.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Under normal market conditions, the Trust expects to maintain
an average duration of less than one year (including the effect of leverage). As the value of a security changes over time, so
will its duration. Prices of securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to interest rate changes than securities
with shorter durations. In general, a portfolio of securities with a longer duration can be expected to be more sensitive to interest
rate changes than a portfolio with a shorter duration.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Investing in loans involves investment risk. Some Borrowers default
on their loan payments. The Trust attempts to manage this credit risk through portfolio diversification and ongoing analysis and
monitoring of Borrowers. The Trust also is subject to market, liquidity, interest rate and other risks. See &ldquo;Investment Objectives,
Policies and Risks.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> William E. Holt, Catherine C. McDermott, Daniel P. McElaney,
Craig P. Russ and Andrew N. Sveen are Vice Presidents of Eaton Vance and are portfolio managers of the Trust. Mr. Russ has managed
the Trust since November 2003 and Messrs. Holt, McElaney and Sveen and Ms. McDermott have managed the Trust since March 2019. Messrs.
Holt, McElaney, Russ and Sveen and Ms. McDermott have been employed by Eaton Vance for more than five years and manage other Eaton
Vance funds. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust&rsquo;s investments are actively managed, and Senior
Loans and other securities may be bought or sold on a daily basis. The Adviser&rsquo;s staff monitors the credit quality and price
of Senior Loans and other securities held by the Trust, as well as other securities that are available to the Trust. The Trust
may invest in individual Senior Loans and other securities of any credit quality. Although the Adviser considers ratings when making
investment decisions, it generally performs its own credit and investment analysis and does not rely primarily on the ratings assigned
by the Rating Agencies. In evaluating the quality of particular Senior Loans or other securities, whether rated or unrated, the
Adviser will normally take into consideration, among other things, the issuer&rsquo;s financial resources and operating history,
its sensitivity to economic conditions and trends, the ability of its management, its debt maturity schedules and borrowing requirements,
and relative values based on anticipated cash flow, interest and asset coverage, and earnings prospects.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may invest up to 15% of net assets in Senior Loans
denominated in Authorized Foreign Currencies and may invest in other securities of non-United States issuers. The Trust&rsquo;s
investments may have significant exposure to certain sectors of the economy and thus may react differently to political or economic
developments than the market as a whole. The Trust may accept equity securities in connection with a debt restructuring or reorganization
of a Borrower either inside or outside of bankruptcy. The Trust may hold equity securities issued in exchange for a Senior Loan
or issued in connection with the debt restructuring or reorganization of a Borrower. The Trust may also acquire additional equity
securities of such Borrower or its affiliates if, in the judgment of the Adviser, such an investment may enhance the value of a
Senior Loan held or would otherwise be consistent with the Trust&rsquo;s investment policies.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust may purchase or sell derivative instruments (which
derive their value from another instrument, security or index) for risk management purposes, such as hedging against fluctuations
in Senior Loans and other securities prices or interest rates; diversification purposes; changing the duration of the Trust; or
leveraging the Trust. Transactions in derivative instruments may include the purchase or sale of futures contracts on securities,
indices and other financial instruments, credit-linked notes, tranches of collateralized loan obligations and/or collateralized
debt obligations, options on futures contracts, and exchange-traded and over-the-counter options on securities or indices, forward
foreign currency exchange contracts, and interest rate, total return and credit default swaps. Guidelines of any rating organization
that rates any preferred shares issued by the Trust may limit the Trust&rsquo;s ability to engage in such transactions. Subject
to the Trust&rsquo;s policy of investing at least 80% of its total assets in Senior Loans and subject to the thresholds on the
use of futures contracts and related options imposed by Rule 4.5 under the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the &ldquo;CEA&rdquo;)
as promulgated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (&ldquo;CFTC&rdquo;), the Trust may invest, without limitation, in the
foregoing derivative instruments for the purposes stated herein. </P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">LISTING</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> As of February 18, 2020, the Trust had 36,848,313 Common Shares
outstanding as well as 3,032 auction preferred shares (&ldquo;APS&rdquo;) outstanding. The Trust&rsquo;s Common Shares are listed

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">LEVERAGE</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Generally, leverage involves the use of proceeds from the
issuance of preferred shares or borrowed funds, or various financial instruments (such as derivatives). Leverage can increase both
the risk and return profile of the Trust. The Trust currently uses leverage created by issuing APS as well as by loans acquired
with borrowings. On January 26, 2004, the Trust issued 3,940 Series A APS, 3,940 Series B APS, 3,940 Series C APS and 3,940 Series
D APS, with a liquidation preference per share of $25,000 plus accumulated but unpaid dividends. As of December 31, 2012, 2,627
Series A APS, 2,627 Series B APS, 2,627 Series C APS and 2,627 Series D APS had been redeemed. The APS have seniority over the
Common Shares. On September 23, 2016, the Trust repurchased 354 Series A APS, 354 Series B APS, 354 Series C APS and 354 Series
D APS. On September 14, 2018, the Trust repurchased 220 Series A APS, 196 Series B APS, 221 Series C APS and 167 Series D APS.
In addition, in connection with this repurchase, the Trust has entered into a Credit Agreement (the &ldquo;Agreement&rdquo;) with
a bank to borrow up to a limit of $255 million pursuant to a 364-day revolving line of credit. Borrowings under the Agreement are
secured by the assets of the Trust. Interest is generally charged at a rate above London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and is
payable monthly. Under the terms of the Agreement, in effect through March 17, 2020, the Trust pays a facility fee of 0.15% on
the borrowing limit. In connection with the renewal of the Agreement on March 19, 2019, the Trust paid an upfront fee of $127,500,
which is being amortized to interest expense through March 17, 2020. The Trust is required to maintain certain net asset levels
during the term of the Agreement. As of October 31, 2019, the Trust had $218 million in outstanding borrowings, at an interest
rate of 2.69%, in addition to outstanding APS. The Adviser anticipates that the use of leverage (from such issuance of APS and
borrowings) may result in higher income to holders of Common Shares (&ldquo;Common Shareholders&rdquo;) over time. Use of financial
leverage creates an opportunity for increased income but, at the same time, creates special risks. There can be no assurance that
a leveraging strategy will be successful. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The costs of the financial leverage program (from any issuance
of preferred shares and any borrowings) are borne by Common Shareholders and consequently result in a reduction of the NAV of Common
Shares. During periods in which the Trust is using leverage, the fees paid to Eaton Vance for investment advisory services will
be higher than if the Trust did not use leverage because the fees paid will be calculated on the basis of the Trust&rsquo;s gross
assets, which include proceeds from the issuance of preferred shares and any borrowings. In this regard, holders of debt or preferred
securities do not bear the investment advisory fee. Rather, Common Shareholders bear the portion of the investment advisory fee
attributable to the assets purchased with the proceeds, which means that Common Shareholders effectively bear the entire advisory
fee. See &ldquo;Investment Objectives, Policies and Risks - Use of Leverage and Related Risks&rdquo; and &ldquo;Management of the
Trust - The Adviser.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Financial leverage may also be achieved through the purchase
of certain derivative instruments. The Trust&rsquo;s use of derivative instruments exposes the Trust to special risks. See &ldquo;Investment
Objectives, Policies and Risks - Additional Investment Practices&rdquo; and &ldquo;Investment Objectives, Policies and Risks -
Additional Risk Considerations.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Eaton Vance, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eaton Vance Corp.,
is the Trust's investment adviser and administrator. As of December 31, 2019, Eaton Vance and its affiliates managed approximately

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may sell the Common Shares being offered under this
Prospectus in any one or more of the following ways: (i) directly to purchasers; (ii) through agents; (iii) to or through underwriters;
or (iv) through dealers. The Prospectus Supplement relating to the Offering will identify any agents, underwriters or dealers involved
in the offer or sale of Common Shares, and will set forth any applicable offering price, sales load, fee, commission or discount
arrangement between the Trust and its agents or underwriters, or among its underwriters, or the basis upon which such amount may
be calculated, net proceeds and use of proceeds, and the terms of any sale.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may distribute Common Shares from time to time in one
or more transactions at: (i) a fixed price or prices that may be changed; (ii) market prices prevailing at the time of sale; (iii)
prices related to prevailing market prices; or (iv) negotiated prices; provided, however, that in each case the offering price
per Common Share (less any underwriting commission or discount) must equal or exceed the NAV per Common Share.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust from time to time may offer its Common Shares through
or to certain broker-dealers, including UBS Securities LLC, that have entered into selected dealer agreements relating to at-the-market
offerings.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may directly solicit offers to purchase Common Shares,
or the Trust may designate agents to solicit such offers. The Trust will, in a Prospectus Supplement relating to such Offering,
name any agent that could be viewed as an underwriter under the 1933 Act, and describe any commissions the Trust must pay to such
agent(s). Any such agent will be acting on a reasonable best efforts basis for the period of its appointment or, if indicated in
the applicable Prospectus Supplement or other offering materials, on a firm commitment basis. Agents, dealers and underwriters
may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for the Trust in the ordinary course of business.</P>

resell such Common Shares to the public at varying prices to be determined by such dealer at the time of resale.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may engage in at-the-market offerings to or through
a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise, in accordance with Rule 415(a)(4) under the 1933

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Agents, underwriters and dealers may be entitled under agreements
which they may enter into with the Trust to indemnification by the Trust against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities

of business.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In order to facilitate the Offering of Common Shares, any underwriters
may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of Common Shares or any other Common Shares the
prices of which may be used to determine payments on the Common Shares. Specifically, any underwriters may over-allot in connection
with the Offering, creating a short position for their own accounts. In addition, to cover over-allotments or to stabilize the
price of Common Shares or of any such other Common Shares, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, Common Shares or any such
other Common Shares in the open market. Finally, in any Offering of Common Shares through a syndicate of underwriters, the underwriting
syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing Common Shares in the Offering
if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed Common Shares in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization
transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of Common Shares above independent
market levels. Any such underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any
time.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may enter into derivative transactions with third parties,

Supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell Common Shares covered by this Prospectus
and the applicable Prospectus Supplement or other offering materials, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third parties
may use Common Shares pledged by the Trust or borrowed from the Trust or others to settle those sales or to close out any related
open borrowings of securities, and may use Common Shares received from the Trust in settlement of those derivatives to close out
any related open borrowings of securities. The third parties in such sale transactions will be underwriters and, if not identified
in this Prospectus, will be identified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement or other offering materials (or a post-effective
amendment).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Any underwriter, agent or dealer utilized in the initial Offering
of Common Shares will not confirm sales to accounts over which it exercises discretionary authority without the prior specific

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">DISTRIBUTIONS</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust intends to make monthly distributions of net investment
income to Common Shareholders, after payment of any dividends on any outstanding APS. The amount of each monthly distribution will
vary depending on a number of factors, including dividends payable on the Trust's preferred shares or other costs of financial
leverage. As portfolio and market conditions change, the rate of dividends on the Common Shares and the Trust's dividend policy
could change. Over time, the Trust will distribute all of its net investment income (after it pays accrued dividends on any outstanding
preferred shares) or other costs of financial leverage. In addition, at least annually, the Trust intends to distribute all or
substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any).
Distributions to Common Shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to preferred shareholders are recorded
daily and are payable at the end of each dividend period.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Beginning February&nbsp;13, 2008 and consistent with the patterns
in the broader market for auction-rate securities, the Trust&rsquo;s APS auctions were unsuccessful in clearing due to an imbalance
of sell orders over bids to buy the APS. As a result, the dividend rates of the APS were reset to the maximum applicable rates.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis
and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions
in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences
between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions
from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Common Shareholders may elect automatically to reinvest some
or all of their distributions in additional Common Shares under the Trust's dividend reinvestment plan. See &ldquo;Distributions&rdquo;
and &ldquo;Dividend Reinvestment Plan.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust has established a dividend reinvestment plan (the &ldquo;Plan&rdquo;).
Under the Plan, a Common Shareholder may elect to have all dividend and capital gain distributions automatically reinvested in
additional Common Shares either purchased in the open market, or newly issued by the Trust if the Common Shares are trading at
or above their net asset value. Common Shareholders may elect to participate in the Plan by completing the dividend reinvestment
plan application form. Common Shareholders who do not elect to participate in the Plan will receive all distributions in cash paid
by check mailed directly to them by American Stock Transfer &amp; Trust Company, LLC, as dividend paying agent. Common Shareholders
who intend to hold their Common Shares through a broker or nominee should contact such broker or nominee to determine whether or
how they may participate in the Plan. See &ldquo;Dividend Reinvestment Plan.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">CLOSED-END STRUCTURE</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Closed-end funds differ from open-end management investment companies
(commonly referred to as mutual funds) in that closed-end funds generally list their shares for trading on a securities exchange
and do not redeem their shares at the option of the shareholder. By comparison, mutual funds issue securities redeemable at NAV
at the option of the shareholder and typically engage in a continuous offering of their shares. Mutual funds are subject to continuous
asset in-flows and out-flows that can complicate portfolio management, whereas closed-end funds generally can stay more fully invested
in securities consistent with the closed-end fund's investment objective(s) and policies. In addition, in comparison to open-end
funds, closed-end funds have greater flexibility in the employment of financial leverage and in the ability to make certain types
of investments, including investments in illiquid securities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">However, shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount
from their net asset value. Since inception, the market price of the Common Shares has fluctuated and at times traded below the
Trust&rsquo;s NAV, and at times has traded above NAV. In recognition of the possibility that the Common Shares might trade at a
discount to net asset value and that any such discount may not be in the interest of Common Shareholders, the Trust's Board of
Trustees (the &ldquo;Board&rdquo;), in consultation with Eaton Vance, from time to time may review possible actions to reduce any
such discount. The Board might consider open market repurchases or tender offers for Common Shares at net asset value. There can
be no assurance that the Board will decide to undertake any of these actions or that, if undertaken, such actions would result
in the Common Shares trading at a price equal to or close to net asset value per Common Share. The Board might also consider the
conversion of the Trust to an open-end management investment company. The Board believes, however, that the closed-end structure
is desirable, given the Trust's investment objectives and policies. Investors should assume, therefore, that it is highly unlikely
that the Board would vote to convert the Trust to an open-end management investment company. Investors should note that any outstanding
preferred shares issued by the Trust could make a conversion to open-end form more difficult because of the voting rights of preferred
shareholders, the costs of redeeming preferred shares and other factors. See &ldquo;Description of Capital Structure.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0 0">SPECIAL RISK CONSIDERATIONS</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Risk is inherent in all investing. Investing in any investment
company security involves risk, including the risk that you may receive little or no return on your investment or even that you
may lose part or all of your investment.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Discount
From or Premium to NAV.</B></FONT> The Offering will be conducted only when Common Shares of the Trust are trading at a price equal
to or above the Trust&rsquo;s NAV per Common Share plus the per Common Share amount of commissions. As with any security, the market
value of the Common Shares may increase or decrease from the amount initially paid for the Common Shares. The Trust&rsquo;s Common
Shares have traded both at a premium and at a discount relative to net asset value. The shares of closed-end management investment
companies frequently trade at a discount from their NAV. This is a risk separate and distinct from the risk that the Trust&rsquo;s
NAV may decrease.</P>

Market for the Common Shares.</B></FONT> The issuance of Common Shares through the Offering may have an adverse effect on the secondary
market for the Common Shares. The increase in the amount of the Trust&rsquo;s outstanding Common Shares resulting from the Offering
may put downward pressure on the market price for the Common Shares of the Trust. Common Shares will not be issued pursuant to
the Offering at any time when Common Shares are trading at a price lower than a price equal to the Trust&rsquo;s NAV per Common
Share plus the per Common Share amount of commissions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust also issues Common Shares of the Trust through its
dividend reinvestment plan. See &ldquo;Dividend Reinvestment Plan.&rdquo; Common Shares may be issued under the plan at a discount
to the market price for such Common Shares, which may put downward pressure on the market price for Common Shares of the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">When the Common Shares are trading at a premium, the Trust may
also issue Common Shares of the Trust that are sold through transactions effected on the NYSE. The increase in the amount of the

Common Shares of the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The voting power of current shareholders will be diluted to the
extent that such shareholders do not purchase shares in any future Common Share offerings or do not purchase sufficient shares
to maintain their percentage interest. In addition, if the Adviser is unable to invest the proceeds of such offering as intended,
the Trust&rsquo;s per share distribution may decrease (or may consist of return of capital) and the Trust may not participate in
market advances to the same extent as if such proceeds were fully invested as planned.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Income
Risk.</B></FONT> The income investors receive from the Trust is based primarily on the interest it earns from its investments,
which can vary widely over the short and long-term. If prevailing market interest rates drop, investors&rsquo; income from the
Trust could drop as well. The Trust&rsquo;s income could also be affected adversely when prevailing short-term interest rates increase
and the Trust is utilizing leverage, although this risk is mitigated by the Trust&rsquo;s investment in Senior Loans, which pay
floating-rates of interest.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Market
Risk</B></FONT><B><FONT STYLE="font-family: NewsGoth Lt BT,sans-serif">.</FONT></B> The value of investments held by the Trust
may increase or decrease in response to economic, political and financial events (whether real, expected or perceived) in the U.S.
and global markets. The frequency and magnitude of such changes in value cannot be predicted. Certain securities and other investments
held by the Trust may experience increased volatility, illiquidity, or other potentially adverse effects in reaction to changing
market conditions.&nbsp; Actions taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve or foreign central banks to stimulate or stabilize economic
growth, such as decreases or increases in short-term interest rates, could cause high volatility in markets. No active trading
market may exist for certain investments, which may impair the ability of the Trust to sell or to realize the current valuation
of such investments in the event of the need to liquidate such assets.&nbsp; Fixed-income markets may experience periods of relatively
high volatility in an environment where U.S. treasury yields are rising.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Senior
Loans Risk.</B></FONT> The risks associated with Senior Loans are similar to the risks of Non-Investment Grade Bonds (discussed
below), although Senior Loans are typically senior and secured in contrast to Non-Investment Grade Bonds, which are often subordinated
and unsecured. Senior Loans&rsquo; higher standing has historically resulted in generally higher recoveries in the event of a corporate
reorganization or other restructuring. In addition, because their interest rates are adjusted for changes in short-term interest
rates, Senior Loans generally have less interest rate risk than Non-Investment Grade Bonds, which are typically fixed rate. The
Trust&rsquo;s investments in Senior Loans are typically below investment grade and are considered speculative because of the credit
risk of their issuers. Such companies are more likely to default on their payments of interest and principal owed to the Trust,
and such defaults could reduce the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value and income distributions. An economic downturn generally leads
to a higher non-payment rate, and a debt obligation may lose significant value before a default occurs. Moreover, any specific
collateral used to secure a loan may decline in value or lose all its value or become illiquid, which would adversely affect the
loan&rsquo;s value. &ldquo;Junior Loans&rdquo; are secured and unsecured subordinated loans, second lien loans and subordinate
bridge loans. Senior Loans and Junior Loans are referred to together herein as &ldquo;loans.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Loans and other debt securities are also subject to the risk
of price declines and to increases in prevailing interest rates, although floating-rate debt instruments are less exposed to this
risk than fixed-rate debt instruments. Interest rate changes may also increase prepayments of debt obligations and require the
Trust to invest assets at lower yields.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Loans are traded in a private, unregulated inter-dealer or
inter-bank resale market and are generally subject to contractual restrictions that must be satisfied before a loan can be bought
or sold. These restrictions may impede the Trust&rsquo;s ability to buy or sell loans (thus affecting their liquidity) and may
negatively impact the transaction price. See also &ldquo;Market Risk&rdquo; above. It also may take longer than seven days for
transactions in loans to settle. Due to the possibility of an extended loan settlement process, the Trust may hold cash, sell investments
or temporarily borrow from banks or other lenders to meet short-term liquidity needs. The types of covenants included in loan agreements
generally vary depending on market conditions, the creditworthiness of the issuer, the nature of the collateral securing the loan
and possibly other factors. Loans with fewer covenants that restrict activities of the borrower may provide the borrower with more
flexibility to take actions that may be detrimental to the loan holders and provide fewer investor protections in the event of
such actions or if covenants are breached. The Trust may experience relatively greater realized or unrealized losses or delays
and expense in enforcing its rights with respect to loans with fewer restrictive covenants. Loans to entities located outside of
the U.S. </P>

as compared to loans to U.S. entities and may involve greater risks. The Trust may have difficulties and incur expense enforcing
its rights with respect to non-U.S. loans and such loans could be subject to bankruptcy laws that are materially different than
in the U.S. Loans may be structured such that they are not securities under securities law, and in the event of fraud or misrepresentation
by a borrower, lenders may not have the protection of the anti-fraud provisions of the federal securities laws. Loans are also
subject to risks associated with other types of income investments, including credit risk and risks of lower rated investments. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Credit
Risk.</B></FONT> Investments in loans and other debt obligations (referred to below as &ldquo;debt instruments&rdquo;) are subject
to the risk of non-payment of scheduled principal and interest. Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances may reduce
the capacity of the party obligated to make principal and interest payments on such instruments and may lead to defaults. Such
non-payments and defaults may reduce the value of Trust shares and income distributions. The value of debt instruments also may
decline because of concerns about the issuer&rsquo;s ability to make principal and interest payments. In addition, the credit ratings
of debt instruments may be lowered if the financial condition of the party obligated to make payments with respect to such instruments
deteriorates. In the event of bankruptcy of the issuer of a debt instrument, the Trust could experience delays or limitations with
respect to its ability to realize the benefits of any collateral securing the instrument. In order to enforce its rights in the
event of a default, bankruptcy or similar situation, the Trust may be required to retain legal or similar counsel, which may increase
the Trust&rsquo;s operating expenses and adversely affect net asset value. The Trust is also exposed to credit risk when it engages
in certain types of derivatives transactions, such as writing credit default swaps or purchasing credit linked notes or options
and when it engages in transactions that expose the Trust to counterparty risk. See &ldquo;Derivatives.&rdquo; Due to their lower
place in the borrower&rsquo;s capital structure, Junior Loans involve a higher degree of overall risk than Senior Loans to the
same borrower. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> In evaluating the quality of a particular instrument, the
investment adviser may take into consideration, among other things, a credit rating assigned by a credit rating agency, the issuer&rsquo;s
financial resources and operating history, its sensitivity to economic conditions and trends, the ability of its management, its
debt maturity schedules and borrowing requirements, and relative values based on anticipated cash flow, interest and asset coverage,
and earnings prospects. Credit rating agencies are private services that provide ratings of the credit quality of certain investments.
Credit ratings issued by rating agencies are based on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the issuer&rsquo;s financial
condition and the rating agency&rsquo;s credit analysis, if applicable, at the time of rating. As such, the rating assigned to
any particular security is not necessarily a reflection of the issuer&rsquo;s current financial condition. The ratings assigned
are not absolute standards of credit quality and do not evaluate market risks or necessarily reflect the issuer&rsquo;s current
financial condition or the volatility or liquidity of the security. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> A credit rating may have a modifier (such as plus, minus or
a numerical modifier) to denote its relative status within the rating. The presence of a modifier does not change the security
credit rating (for example, BBB- and Baa3 are within the investment grade rating) for purposes of the Trust&rsquo;s investment
limitations, if any. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Interest
Rate Risk</B></FONT><B><FONT STYLE="font-family: NewsGoth Lt BT,sans-serif">.</FONT></B> In general, the value of income securities
will fluctuate based on changes in interest rates. The value of these securities is likely to increase when interest rates fall
and decline when interest rates rise. Duration measures the time-weighted expected cash flows of a fixed-income security, while
maturity refers to the amount of time until a fixed-income security matures. Generally, securities with longer durations or maturities
are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities with shorter durations or maturities, causing them to be more volatile.
Conversely, fixed-income securities with shorter durations or maturities will be less volatile but may provide lower returns than
fixed-income securities with longer durations or maturities. The impact of interest rate changes is significantly less for floating
rate instruments that have relatively short periodic rate resets (e.g., ninety days or less). In a rising interest rate environment,
the duration of income securities that have the ability to be prepaid or called by the issuer may be extended. In a declining interest
rate environment, the proceeds from prepaid or maturing instruments may have to be reinvested at a lower interest rate. Because
floating or variable rates on loans only reset periodically, changes in prevailing interest rates may cause some fluctuations in
the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value. Similarly, a sudden and significant increase in market interest rates may cause a decline in
the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value. A material decline in the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value may impair the Trust&rsquo;s ability
to maintain required levels of asset coverage. Certain instruments held by the Trust pay an interest rate based on the London Interbank
Offered Rate (&ldquo;LIBOR&rdquo;), which is the average offered rate for various maturities of short-term loans between certain
major international banks. LIBOR is expected to be phased out by the end of 2021. While the effect of the phase out cannot yet
be determined, it may result in, among other things, increased volatility or illiquidity in markets for instruments based on LIBOR
and changes in the value of such instruments. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>LIBOR
Transition and Associated Risk.</B></FONT> LIBOR is the average offered rate for various maturities of short-term loans between
major international banks who are members of the British Bankers Association (BBA). LIBOR is the most common benchmark interest
rate index used to make adjustments to variable-rate loans. It is used throughout global banking and financial industries to determine
interest rates for a variety of financial instruments (such as debt instruments and derivatives) and borrowing arrangements, and

manipulation allegations in 2012. Despite increased regulation and other corrective actions since that time, concerns have arisen
regarding its viability as a benchmark, due largely to reduced activity in the financial markets that it measures. In July 2017,
the Financial Conduct Authority (the &ldquo;FCA&rdquo;), the United Kingdom financial regulatory
body, announced a desire to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Although the period from the FCA announcement until the end
of 2021 is generally expected to be enough time for market participants to transition to the use of a different benchmark for new
securities and transactions, there remains uncertainty regarding the future utilization of LIBOR and the specific replacement rate
or rates. As such, the potential effect of a transition away from LIBOR on the Trust or the financial instruments held by the Trust
cannot yet be determined. The transition process may involve, among other things, increased volatility or illiquidity in markets
for instruments that currently rely on LIBOR. The transition may also result in a change in (i) the value of certain instruments
held by the Trust, (ii) the cost of borrowing or the dividend rate for preferred shares, or (iii) the effectiveness of related
Trust transactions such as hedges, as applicable. When LIBOR is discontinued, the LIBOR replacement rate may be lower than market
expectations, which could have an adverse impact on the value of preferred and debt-securities with floating or fixed-to-floating
rate coupons. Any such effects of the transition away from LIBOR, as well as other unforeseen effects, could result in losses to
the Trust. Since the usefulness of LIBOR as a benchmark could deteriorate during the transition period, these effects could occur
prior to the end of 2021. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Various financial industry groups have begun planning for
the transition away from LIBOR, but there are obstacles to converting certain longer term securities and transactions to a new
benchmark. In June 2017, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a group of large U.S. banks working with the Federal Reserve,
announced its selection of a new Secured Overnight Financing Rate (&ldquo;SOFR&rdquo;), which is intended to be a broad measure
of secured overnight U.S. Treasury repo rates, as an appropriate replacement for LIBOR. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York began
publishing the SOFR earlier in 2018, with the expectation that it could be used on a voluntary basis in new instruments and transactions.
Bank working groups and regulators in other countries have suggested other alternatives for their markets, including the Sterling
Overnight Interbank Average Rate (&ldquo;SONIA&rdquo;) in England. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Non-Investment
Grade Bonds Risk.</B></FONT> The Trust&rsquo;s investments in Non-Investment Grade Bonds, commonly referred to as &ldquo;junk
bonds,&rdquo; are predominantly speculative because of the credit risk of their issuers. While offering a greater potential opportunity
for capital appreciation and higher yields, Non-Investment Grade Bonds typically entail greater potential price volatility and
may be less liquid than higher-rated securities. Issuers of Non-Investment Grade Bonds are more likely to default on their payments
of interest and principal owed to the Trust, and such defaults will reduce the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value and income distributions.
The prices of these lower rated obligations are more sensitive to negative developments than higher rated securities. Adverse
business conditions, such as a decline in the issuer&rsquo;s revenues or an economic downturn, generally lead to a higher non-payment
rate. In addition, a security may lose significant value before a default occurs as the market adjusts to expected higher non-payment
rates.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Prepayment
Risk.</B></FONT> During periods of declining interest rates or for other purposes, Borrowers may exercise their option to prepay
principal earlier than scheduled. For fixed-income securities, such payments often occur during periods of declining interest rates,
forcing the Trust to reinvest in lower yielding securities. This is known as call or prepayment risk. Non-Investment Grade Bonds
frequently have call features that allow the issuer to redeem the security at dates prior to its stated maturity at a specified
price (typically greater than par) only if certain prescribed conditions are met (&ldquo;call protection&rdquo;). An issuer may
redeem a Non-Investment Grade Bond if, for example, the issuer can refinance the debt at a lower cost due to declining interest
rates or an improvement in the credit standing of the issuer. Senior Loans typically have no such call protection. For premium
bonds (bonds acquired at prices that exceed their par or principal value) purchased by the Trust, prepayment risk may be enhanced.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Lower
Rated Investments Risk.</B></FONT> Investments rated below investment grade and comparable unrated investments (sometimes referred
to as &ldquo;junk&rdquo;) have speculative characteristics because of the credit risk associated with their issuers. Changes in
economic conditions or other circumstances typically have a greater effect on the ability of issuers of lower rated investments
to make principal and interest payments than they do on issuers of higher rated investments. An economic downturn generally leads
to a higher non-payment rate, and a lower rated investment may lose significant value before a default occurs. Lower rated investments
typically are subject to greater price volatility and illiquidity than higher rated investments. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; color: windowtext"><B>Issuer
Risk.</B></FONT> The value of corporate income-producing securities held by the Trust may decline for a number of reasons, which
directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer&rsquo;s goods
and services.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Derivatives
Risk.</B></FONT> The Trust&rsquo;s exposure to derivatives involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks
associated with investing directly in securities and other investments. The use of derivatives can lead to losses because of adverse
movements in the price or value of the security, instrument, index, currency, commodity, economic indicator or event underlying
a derivative (&ldquo;reference instruments&rdquo;), due to failure of a counterparty or due to tax or regulatory constraints.
Derivatives may create leverage in the Trust, which represents a non-cash exposure to the reference instrument. Leverage can increase
both the risk and return potential of the Trust. Derivatives risk may be more significant when derivatives are used to enhance
return or as a substitute for a cash investment position, rather than solely to hedge the risk of a position held by the Trust.
Use of derivatives involves the exercise of specialized skill and judgment, and a transaction may be unsuccessful in whole or
in part because of market behavior or unexpected events. Changes in the value of a derivative (including one used for hedging)
may not correlate perfectly with the underlying reference instrument. Derivative instruments traded in over-the-counter markets
may be difficult to value, may be illiquid, and may be subject to wide swings in valuation caused by changes in the value of the
underlying reference instrument. If a derivative&rsquo;s counterparty is unable to honor its commitments, the value of Trust shares
may decline and the Trust could experience delays in the return of collateral or other assets held by the counterparty. The loss
on derivative transactions may substantially exceed the initial investment, particularly when there is no stated limit on the
Trust&rsquo;s use of derivatives. A derivative investment also involves the risks relating to the reference instrument underlying
the investment.&nbsp; </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Leverage
Risk.</B></FONT> Certain Trust transactions may give rise to leverage. Leverage can result from a non-cash exposure to an asset,
index, rate or instrument. Leverage can increase both the risk and return potential of the Trust. The Trust is required to segregate
liquid assets or otherwise cover the Trust&rsquo;s obligation created by a transaction that may give rise to leverage. The use
of leverage may cause the Trust to liquidate portfolio positions when it may not be advantageous to do so to satisfy its obligations
or to meet segregation requirements. Leverage may cause the Trust&rsquo;s share price to be more volatile than if it had not been
leveraged, as certain types of leverage may exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of the Trust&rsquo;s
portfolio securities. The loss on leveraged investments may substantially exceed the initial investment. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> As discussed above, the Trust currently uses leverage created
by issuing APS and borrowings. On January 26, 2004, the Trust issued 3,940 Series A APS, 3,940 Series B APS, 3,940 Series C APS
and 3,940 Series D APS, with a liquidation preference per share of $25,000 plus accumulated but unpaid dividends. As of December
31, 2012, 2,627 Series A APS, 2,627 Series B APS, 2,627 Series C APS and 2,627 Series D APS had been redeemed. On September 23,
2016, the Trust repurchased 354 Series A APS, 354 Series B APS, 354 Series C APS and 354 Series D APS. On September 14, 2018, the
Trust repurchased 220 Series A APS, 196 Series B APS, 221 Series C APS and 167 Series D APS. In addition, in connection with this
repurchase, the Trust has entered into an Agreement with a bank to borrow up to a limit of $255 million pursuant to a 364-day revolving
line of credit. The Trust is required to maintain certain net asset levels during the term of the Agreement. As of October 31,
2019, the Trust had $218 million in outstanding borrowings, at an interest rate of 2.69%, in addition to outstanding APS. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Adviser anticipates that the use of leverage (from the
issuance of APS and borrowings) may result in higher income to Common Shareholders over time. Leverage creates risks for Common
Shareholders, including the likelihood of greater volatility of NAV and market price of the Common Shares and the risk that fluctuations
in dividend rates on APS and costs of borrowings may affect the return to Common Shareholders.&#8194;<FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><U>See
also &ldquo;LIBOR Transition and Associated Risk.&rdquo;</U></FONT> To the extent the income derived from investments purchased
with funds received from leverage exceeds the cost of leverage, the Trust&rsquo;s distributions will be greater than if leverage
had not been used. Conversely, if the income from the investments purchased with such funds is not sufficient to cover the cost
of leverage, the amount available for distribution to Common Shareholders will be less than if leverage had not been used. In the
latter case, Eaton Vance, in its best judgment, may nevertheless determine to maintain the Trust&rsquo;s leveraged position if
it deems such action to be appropriate. While the Trust has preferred shares outstanding, an increase in short-term rates would
also result in an increased cost of leverage, which would adversely affect the Trust&rsquo;s income available for distribution.
There can be no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In addition, under current federal income tax law, the Trust
is required to allocate a portion of any net realized capital gains or other taxable income to APS holders. The terms of the Trust&rsquo;s
APS require the Trust to pay to any APS holders additional dividends intended to compensate such holders for taxes payable on any
capital gains or other taxable income allocated to such holders. Any such additional dividends will reduce the amount available
for distribution to Common Shareholders. As discussed under &ldquo;Management of the Trust,&rdquo; the fee paid to Eaton Vance
is calculated on the basis of the Trust&rsquo;s gross assets, including proceeds from the issuance of APS and borrowings, so the
fees will be higher when leverage is utilized. In this regard, holders of APS do not bear the investment advisory fee. Rather,
Common Shareholders bear the portion of the investment advisory fee attributable to the assets purchased with the proceeds, which
means that Common Shareholders effectively bear the entire advisory fee.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The APS have been rated AAA by Fitch and Aa3 by Moody's. The
Trust currently intends to seek to maintain this rating or an equivalent credit rating on the APS or any preferred shares it issues.
The Rating Agencies which rate the preferred shares and any bank lender in connection with a credit facility or commercial paper
program may also impose specific restrictions as a condition to borrowing. Such restrictions may include asset coverage or portfolio
composition requirements that are more stringent than those imposed on the Trust by the 1940 Act. These covenants or guidelines
do not currently and are not expected to impede Eaton Vance in managing the Trust&rsquo;s portfolio in accordance with its investment
objectives and policies and it is not anticipated that they will so impede Eaton Vance in the future. See &ldquo;Description of
Capital Structure - Preferred Shares.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Financial leverage may also be achieved through the purchase
of certain derivative instruments. The Trust&rsquo;s use of derivative instruments exposes the Trust to special risks. See &ldquo;Investment
Objectives, Policies and Risks - Additional Investment Practices&rdquo; and &ldquo;Investment Objectives, Policies, and Risks

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Foreign
Investment Risk.</B></FONT> Investments in foreign issuers could be affected by factors not present in the United States, including
expropriation, armed conflict, confiscatory taxation, lack of uniform accounting and auditing standards, less publicly available
financial and other information, and potential difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations. Because foreign issuers may not
be subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standard practices and requirements and regulatory measures
comparable to those in the United States, there may be less publicly available information about such foreign issuers. Settlements
of securities transactions in foreign countries are subject to risk of loss, may be delayed and are generally less frequent than
in the United States, which could affect the liquidity of the Trust&rsquo;s assets. Evidence of ownership of certain foreign investments
may be held outside the United States, and the Trust may be subject to the risks associated with the holding of such property overseas.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Foreign issuers may become subject to sanctions imposed by the
United States or another country, which could result in the immediate freeze of the foreign issuers&rsquo; assets or securities.
The imposition of such sanctions could impair the market value of the securities of such foreign issuers and limit the Trust&rsquo;s
ability to buy, sell, receive or deliver the securities. Trading in certain foreign markets is also subject to liquidity risks.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Political events in foreign countries may cause market disruptions.
In June 2016, the United Kingdom (&ldquo;UK&rdquo;) voted in a referendum to leave the European Union (&ldquo;EU&rdquo;) (&ldquo;Brexit&rdquo;).
Effective January 31, 2020, the UK ceased to be a member of the EU following a period of impasse within the UK Parliament, and
the holding of an early general election in December 2019 to break the deadlock. The European Parliament and UK Government are
expected to focus attention on the nature of the UK&rsquo;s future relationship with the EU during an agreed transitional period.
There is significant market uncertainty regarding Brexit&rsquo;s ramifications, and the range and potential implications of possible
political, regulatory, economic, and market outcomes in the UK, EU and beyond are difficult to predict. Brexit may cause greater
market volatility and illiquidity, currency fluctuations, deterioration in economic activity, a decrease in business confidence,
and increased likelihood of a recession in the UK. If one or more additional countries leave the EU or the EU dissolves, the world&rsquo;s
securities markets likely will be significantly disrupted. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Currency
Risk.</B></FONT> Exchange rates for currencies fluctuate daily. The value of foreign investments may be affected favorably or unfavorably
by changes in currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency markets generally are not as regulated as securities
markets and currency transactions are subject to settlement, custodial and other operational risks.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>U.S.
Government Securities Risk.</B></FONT> Although certain U.S. Government-sponsored agencies (such as the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation and the Federal National Mortgage Association) may be chartered or sponsored by acts of Congress, their securities
are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. U.S. Treasury securities generally have a lower return than other obligations
because of their higher credit quality and market liquidity.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Liquidity
Risk.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest without limitation in Senior Loans and other investments for which there is no readily available
trading market or which are otherwise illiquid. The Trust may not be able to dispose readily of such investments at prices that
approximate those at which the Trust could sell such investments if they were more widely traded and, as a result of such illiquidity,
the Trust may have to sell other investments or engage in borrowing transactions if necessary to raise cash to meet its obligations.
In addition, the limited liquidity could affect the market price of the investments, thereby adversely affecting the Trust's net
asset value and ability to make dividend distributions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Some loans are not readily marketable and may be subject to contractual
restrictions that must be satisfied before a loan can be bought or sold. Loans generally are not listed on any national securities
exchange or automated quotation system and no active trading market may exist for some of the loans in which the Trust will invest.
Where a secondary market exists, such market for some loans may be subject to irregular activity, wide bid/ask spreads and extended
trade settlement periods. Loans that are illiquid may impair the Trust&rsquo;s ability to realize the full value of its assets
in the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation of such assets and thus may cause a decline in the Trust&rsquo;s net asset
value. The Trust has no limitation on the amount of its assets which may be invested in securities which are not readily marketable
or are subject to restrictions on resale.</P>

price of the investments, thereby adversely affecting the Trust&rsquo;s NAV and ability to make dividend distributions. The
financial markets in general have in recent years experienced periods of extreme secondary market supply and demand
imbalance, resulting in a loss of liquidity during which market prices were suddenly and substantially below traditional
measures of intrinsic value. During such periods, some investments could be sold only at arbitrary prices and with
substantial losses. Periods of such market dislocation may occur again at any time. The Trust has no limitation on the amount

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Inflation
Risk.</B></FONT> Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be worth less in the future
as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the real value of the Common Shares and distributions thereon
can decline. In addition, during any periods of rising inflation, dividend rates of preferred shares would likely increase, which
would tend to further reduce returns to Common Shareholders. This risk is mitigated to some degree by the Trust's investments in
Senior Loans. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Management
Risk.</B></FONT> The Trust is subject to management risk because it is actively managed. Eaton Vance and the individual portfolio
managers invest the assets of the Trust as they deem appropriate in implementing the Trust&rsquo;s investment strategy. Accordingly,
the success of the Trust depends upon the investment skills and analytical abilities of Eaton Vance and the individual portfolio
managers to develop and effectively implement strategies that achieve the Trust&rsquo;s investment objective. There is no assurance
that Eaton Vance and the individual portfolio managers will be successful in developing and implementing the Trust&rsquo;s investment
strategy. Subjective decisions made by Eaton Vance and the individual portfolio managers may cause the Trust to incur losses or
to miss profit opportunities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Cybersecurity
Risk.</B></FONT> With the increased use of technologies by Trust service providers to conduct business, such as the Internet, the
Trust is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate
attacks or unintentional events. Cyber attacks include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems
(e.g., through &ldquo;hacking&rdquo; or malicious software coding) for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information,
corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Cyber attacks may also be carried out in a manner that does not require gaining
unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on websites (i.e., efforts to make network services unavailable
to intended users). Cybersecurity failures or breaches by the Trust&rsquo;s investment adviser or administrator and other service
providers (including, but not limited to, the custodian or transfer agent), and the issuers of securities in which the Trust invests,
have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with
the Trust&rsquo;s ability to calculate its net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of Trust shareholders to transact
business, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other
compensation costs, or additional compliance costs. While various Trust service providers have established business continuity
plans and risk management systems intended to identify and mitigate cyber attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans
and systems including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, the Trust cannot control the cybersecurity
plans and systems put in place by service providers to the Trust and issuers in which the Trust invests.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Regulatory
Risk.</B></FONT> To the extent that legislation or state or federal regulators that regulate certain financial institutions impose
additional requirements or restrictions with respect to the ability of such institutions to make loans, particularly in connection
with highly leveraged transactions, the availability of Senior Loans for investment may be adversely affected. Further, such legislation
or regulation could depress the market value of Senior Loans.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Market
Disruption.</B></FONT> Global instability, war, geopolitical tensions and terrorist attacks in the United States and around the
world have previously resulted, and may continue to result in market volatility and may have long-term effects on the United States
and worldwide financial markets and may cause further economic uncertainties in the United States and worldwide. The Trust cannot
predict the effects of significant future events on the global economy and securities markets. A similar disruption of the financial
markets could impact interest rates, auctions, secondary trading, ratings, credit risk, inflation and other factors relating to
the Common Shares. In particular, Non-Investment Grade Bonds and Senior Loans tend to be more volatile than higher rated fixed-income
securities so that these events and any actions resulting from them may have a greater impact on the prices and volatility of Non-Investment
Grade Bonds and Senior Loans than on higher rated fixed-income securities. </P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">TRADING AND NAV INFORMATION</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust&rsquo;s Common Shares have traded both at a premium
and a discount to NAV. The Trust cannot predict whether its shares will trade in the future at a premium or discount to NAV. The
provisions of the 1940 Act generally require that the public offering price of Common Shares (less any underwriting commissions
and discounts) must equal or exceed the NAV per share of a company&rsquo;s common stock (calculated within 48 hours of pricing).
The issuance of Common Shares may have an adverse effect on prices in the secondary market for the Trust&rsquo;s Common Shares
by increasing the number of Common Shares available, which may put downward pressure on the market price for the Trust&rsquo;s
Common Shares. Shares of common stock of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a discount from NAV. See &ldquo;Additional
Risk Considerations - Discount from or Premium to NAV&rdquo;.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In addition, the Trust&rsquo;s Board of Trustees has authorized
the Trust to repurchase up to 10% of its outstanding Common Shares as of the day of the prior calendar year-end at market prices
when shares are trading at a discount to net asset value. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Trust to purchase
a specific amount of shares. The results of the share repurchase program are disclosed in the Trust&rsquo;s annual and semi-annual
reports to shareholders.&nbsp; See &ldquo;Description of Capital Structure - Repurchase of Common Shares and Other Discount Measures.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The following table sets forth for each of the periods indicated
the high and low closing market prices for Common Shares on the NYSE, and the corresponding NAV per share and the premium or discount
to NAV per share at which the Trust&rsquo;s Common Shares were trading as of such date.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Subject to the remainder of this section, and unless otherwise
specified in a Prospectus Supplement, the Trust currently intends to invest substantially all of the net proceeds of any sales
of Common Shares pursuant to this Prospectus in accordance with its Trust&rsquo;s investment objectives and policies within three
months of receipt of such proceeds. Such investments may be delayed up to three months if suitable investments are unavailable
at the time or for other reasons, such as market volatility and lack of liquidity in the markets of suitable investments. Pending
such investment, the Trust anticipates that it will invest the proceeds in short-term money market instruments, securities with
remaining maturities of less than one year, cash or cash equivalents. A delay in the anticipated use of proceeds could lower returns
and reduce the Trust&rsquo;s distribution to Common Shareholders or result in a distribution consisting principally of a return
of capital.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust&rsquo;s investment objective is to provide a high level
of current income. The Trust will, as a secondary objective, also seek preservation of capital to the extent consistent with its
primary goal of high current income. Under normal market conditions, Eaton Vance expects the Trust to maintain a duration of less
than one year (including the effect of leverage). In comparison to maturity (which is the date on which a debt instrument ceases
and the issuer is obligated to repay the principal amount), duration is a measure of the price volatility of a debt instrument
as a result of changes in market rates of interest, based on the weighted average timing of the instrument's expected principal
and interest payments. Duration differs from maturity in that it considers a security's yield, coupon payments, principal payments
and call features in addition to the amount of time until the security finally matures. The Trust pursues its objectives by investing
its assets primarily in senior, secured floating-rate loans (&ldquo;Senior Loans&rdquo;). Senior Loans are loans in which the interest
rate paid fluctuates based on a reference rate. Investment in such floating-rate instruments is expected to minimize changes in
the underlying principal value of the Senior Loans, and therefore the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value, resulting from changes in
market interest rates. Senior Loans typically are secured with specific collateral and have a claim on the assets and/or stock
that is senior to subordinated debtholders and stockholders of the borrower. Senior Loans are made to corporations, partnerships
and other business entities (&ldquo;Borrowers&rdquo;) which operate in various industries and geographical regions. Senior Loans
pay interest at rates that are reset periodically by reference to a base lending rate, primarily the LIBOR, plus a premium.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">PRIMARY INVESTMENT POLICIES</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>General
Composition of the Trust.</B></FONT> Under normal market conditions, the Trust will invest at least 80% of its total assets in
Senior Loans of domestic and foreign borrowers that are denominated in U.S. dollars, euros, British pounds, Swiss francs, Canadian
dollars and Australian dollars (each, an &ldquo;Authorized Foreign Currency&rdquo;). For the purposes of the 80% test, total assets
is defined as net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes, including any outstanding preferred shares.&#8194;The Trust
may invest up to 20% of its total assets in (i) loan interests which have (a) a second lien on collateral, (b) no security interest
in the collateral, or (c) lower than a senior claim on collateral; (ii) other income-producing securities, such as investment and
non-investment grade corporate debt securities and U.S. government and U.S. dollar-denominated foreign government or supranational
debt securities; and (iii) warrants and equity securities issued by a Borrower or its affiliates as part of a package of investments
in the Borrower or its affiliates. During unusual market conditions, the Trust may invest up to 100% of assets in cash or cash
equivalents which may be inconsistent with its investment objectives and other policies. Corporate bonds of below investment grade
quality (&ldquo;Non-Investment Grade Bonds&rdquo;), commonly referred to as &ldquo;junk bonds,&rdquo; which are bonds that are
rated below investment grade by each of the Rating Agencies who cover the security, or, if unrated, are determined to be of comparable
quality by the Adviser. S&amp;P and Fitch consider securities rated below BBB- to be below investment grade and Moody&rsquo;s considers
securities rated</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">below Baa3 to be below investment grade. The Trust&rsquo;s credit
quality policies apply only at the time a security is purchased, and the Trust is not required to dispose of a security in the
event of a downgrade of an assessment of credit quality, the withdrawal of a rating, or in the event of a default. In determining
whether to retain or sell such a security, Eaton Vance may consider such factors as Eaton Vance&rsquo;s assessment of the credit
quality of the issuers of such security, the price at which such security could be sold and the rating, if any, assigned to such
security by other Rating Agencies. Securities rated in the lowest investment grade rating (BBB- or Baa3) may have certain speculative
characteristics. Below investment grade quality securities are considered to be predominantly speculative because of the credit
risk of the issuers. See &ldquo;Investment Objectives, Policies and Risks - Risk Considerations - Non-Investment Grade Bonds Risk.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust&rsquo;s policy of investing, under normal market conditions,
at least 80% of its total assets in Senior Loans is not considered to be fundamental by the Trust and can be changed without a
vote of the Trust&rsquo;s shareholders. However, this policy may only be changed by the Trust&rsquo;s Board following the provision
of 60 days prior written notice to the Trust&rsquo;s shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Under normal market conditions, the Trust expects to maintain
an average duration of less than one year (including the effect of leverage). As the value of a security changes over time, so
will its duration. Prices of securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to interest rate changes than securities
with shorter durations. In general, a portfolio of securities with a longer duration can be expected to be more sensitive to interest
rate changes than a portfolio with a shorter duration.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Adviser&rsquo;s staff monitors the credit quality and the
price of Senior Loans and other securities held by the Trust, as well as other securities that are available to the Trust. The
Trust may invest in Senior Loans and other securities of any credit quality. Although the Adviser considers ratings when making
investment decisions, it generally performs its own credit and investment analysis and does not rely primarily on the ratings assigned
by the Rating Agencies. In evaluating the quality of a particular security, whether rated or unrated, the Adviser will normally
take into consideration, among other things, the issuer&rsquo;s financial resources and operating history, its sensitivity to economic
conditions and trends, the ability of its management, its debt maturity schedules and borrowing requirements, and relative values
based on anticipated cash flow, interest and asset coverage, and earnings prospects. The Adviser will attempt to reduce the risks
of investing in lower rated or unrated debt instruments through active portfolio management, credit analysis and attention to current
developments and trends in the economy and the financial markets.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust is not required to dispose of a security in the event
that a Rating Agency downgrades its assessment of the credit characteristics of a particular issue or withdraws its assessment,
including in the event of a default. In determining whether to retain or sell such a security, Eaton Vance may consider such factors
as Eaton Vance's assessment of the credit quality of the issuers of such security, the price at which such security could be sold
and the rating, if any, assigned to such security by other Rating Agencies.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may invest up to 15% of net assets in Senior Loans
denominated in Authorized Foreign Currencies and may invest in other securities of non-United States issuers. The Trust&rsquo;s
investments may have significant exposure to certain sectors of the economy and thus may react differently to political or economic
developments than the market as a whole. The Trust may accept equity securities in connection with a debt restructuring or reorganization
of a Borrower either inside or outside of bankruptcy. The Trust may hold equity securities issued in exchange for a Senior Loan
or issued in connection with the debt restructuring or reorganization of a Borrower. The Trust may also acquire additional equity
securities of such Borrower or its affiliates if, in the judgment of the Adviser, such an investment may enhance the value of a
Senior Loan held or would otherwise be consistent with the Trust&rsquo;s investment policies.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may purchase shares of other investment companies,
including open- and closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, with a similar investment objective and policies
as permitted under the 1940 Act. Such investments are limited to 10% of total assets overall, with no more than 5% invested in
any one issuer. The value of shares of other closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds is affected by risks similar
to those of the Trust, such as demand for those securities regardless of the demand for the underlying portfolio assets. Investment
companies bear fees and expenses that the Trust will bear indirectly, so investors in the Trust will be subject to duplication
of fees. The Trust also may invest up to 5% of its total assets in structured notes with rates of return determined by reference
to the total rate of return on one or more Senior Loans referenced in such notes. The rate of return on the structured note may
be determined by applying a multiplier to the rate of total return on the referenced Senior Loan or Loans. Application of a multiplier
is comparable to the use of financial leverage, a speculative technique. Leverage magnifies the potential for gain and the risk
of loss; as a result, a relatively small decline in the value of a referenced Senior Loan could result in a relatively large loss
in the value of a structured note. Common Shares of other investment companies and structured notes as discussed above that invest
in Senior Loans or baskets of Senior Loans will be treated as Senior Loans for purposes of the Trust&rsquo;s policy of normally
investing at least 80% of its assets in Senior Loans, and may be subject to the Trust&rsquo;s leverage limitations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Senior
Loans.</B></FONT> Senior Loans hold a senior position in the capital structure of a Borrower, are typically secured with specific
collateral and have a claim on the assets and/or stock of the Borrower that is senior to that held by subordinated debt holders
and stockholders of the Borrower. The capital structure of a Borrower may include Senior Loans, senior and junior subordinated
debt, preferred stock and common stock issued by the Borrower, typically in descending order of seniority with respect to claims
on the Borrower&rsquo;s assets. Senior Loans are typically secured by specific collateral. As also discussed above, the proceeds
of Senior Loans primarily are used to finance leveraged buyouts, recapitalizations, mergers, acquisitions, stock repurchases, refinancing
and internal growth and for other corporate purposes.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Senior Loans in which the Trust will invest generally pay interest
at rates, which are reset periodically by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. Senior Loans typically have rates of
interest which are reset either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium
or credit spread. These base lending rates are primarily LIBOR, and secondarily the prime rate offered by one or more major United
States banks (the &ldquo;Prime Rate&rdquo;) and the certificate of deposit (&ldquo;CD&rdquo;) rate or other base lending rates
used by commercial lenders. Floating-rate loans typically have rates of interest which are re-determined daily, monthly, quarterly
or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. As floating-rate loans, the frequency of how often a loan
resets its interest rate will impact how closely such loans track current market interest rate. The Senior Loans held by the Trust
will have a dollar-weighted average period until the next interest rate adjustment of approximately 90 days or less. As a result,
as short-term interest rates increase, interest payable to the Trust from its investments in Senior Loans should increase, and
as short-term interest rates decrease, interest payable to the Trust from its investments in Senior Loans should decrease. The
Trust may utilize derivative instruments to shorten the effective interest rate redetermination period of Senior Loans in its portfolio.
Senior Loans typically have a stated term of between one and ten years. In the experience of the Adviser over the last decade,
however, the average life of Senior Loans has been two to four years because of prepayments. Junior Loans are secured and unsecured
subordinated loans, second lien loans and subordinate bridge loans. Senior Loans and Junior Loans are referred to together herein
as &ldquo;loans.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Loans may be primary, direct investments or investments in loan
assignments or participation interests.&nbsp; A loan assignment represents a portion of the entirety of a loan and a portion of
the entirety of a position previously attributable to a different lender. The purchaser of an assignment typically succeeds to
all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement and has the same rights and obligations as the assigning investor.&nbsp;
However, assignments through private negotiations may cause the purchaser of an assignment to have different and more limited rights
than those held by the assigning investor.&nbsp; Loan participation interests are interests issued by a lender or other entity
and represent a fractional interest in a loan. The Trust typically will have a contractual relationship only with the financial
institution that issued the participation interest. As a result, the Trust may have the right to receive payments of principal,
interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the financial institution and only upon receipt by such entity of such
payments from the borrower. In connection with purchasing a participation interest, the Trust generally will have no right to enforce
compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement, nor any rights with respect to any funds acquired by other investors
through set-off against the borrower and the Trust may not directly benefit from the collateral supporting the loan in which it
has purchased the participation interest. As a result, the Trust may assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the financial
institution issuing the participation interest. In the event of the insolvency of the entity issuing a participation interest,
the Trust may be treated as a general creditor of such entity. No active trading market may exist for certain loans, which may
impair the ability of the Trust to realize full value in the event of the need to sell a loan and which may make it difficult to
value the loan.&nbsp; To the extent that a secondary market does exist for certain loans, the market may be subject to irregular
trading activity, wide bid/ask spreads and extended trade settlement periods. Most loans are rated below investment grade or, if
unrated, are of similar credit quality.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Loan investments may be made at par or at a discount or premium
to par.&nbsp; The interest payable on a loan may be fixed or floating rate, and paid in cash or in-kind.&nbsp; In connection with
transactions in loans, the Trust may be subject to facility or other fees.&nbsp; Loans may be secured by specific collateral or
other assets of the borrower, guaranteed by a third party, unsecured or subordinated.&nbsp; During the term of a loan, the value
of any collateral securing the loan may decline in value, causing the loan to be under collateralized. Collateral may consist of
assets that may not be readily liquidated, and there is no assurance that the liquidation of such assets would satisfy fully a
borrower&rsquo;s obligations under the loan. In addition, if a loan is foreclosed, the Trust could become part owner of the collateral
and would bear the costs and liabilities associated with owning and disposing of such collateral.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">A lender&rsquo;s repayment and other rights primarily are determined
by governing loan, assignment or participation documents, which (among other things) typically establish the priority of payment
on the loan relative to other indebtedness and obligations of the borrower. A borrower typically is required to comply with certain
covenants contained in a loan agreement between the borrower and the holders of the loan. The types of covenants included in loan
agreements generally vary depending on market conditions, the creditworthiness of the issuer, and the nature of the collateral
securing the loan. Loans with fewer covenants that restrict activities of the borrower may provide the borrower with more flexibility
to take actions that may be detrimental to the loan holders and provide fewer investor protections in the event covenants</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">are breached. The Trust may experience relatively greater realized
or unrealized losses or delays and expense in enforcing its rights with respect to loans with fewer restrictive covenants. Loans
to entities located outside of the U.S. have substantially different lender protections and covenants as compared to loans to U.S.
entities and may involve greater risks. In the event of bankruptcy, applicable law may impact a lender&rsquo;s ability to enforce
its rights. Bankruptcy laws in foreign jurisdictions, including emerging markets, may differ significantly from U.S. bankruptcy
law and the Trust&rsquo;s rights with respect to a loan governed by the laws of a foreign jurisdiction may be more limited.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Loans may be originated by a lending agent, such as a financial
institution or other entity, on behalf of a group or &ldquo;syndicate&rdquo; of loan investors (the &ldquo;Loan Investors&rdquo;).&nbsp;
In such a case, the agent administers the terms of the loan agreement and is responsible for the collection of principal, and interest
payments from the borrower and the apportionment of these payments to the Loan Investors. Failure by the agent to fulfill its obligations
may delay or adversely affect receipt of payment by the Trust. Furthermore, unless under the terms of a loan agreement or participation
(as applicable) the Trust has direct recourse against the borrower, the Trust must rely on the agent and the other Loan Investors
to pursue appropriate remedies against the borrower.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust expects primarily to purchase Senior Loans by assignment
from a participant in the original syndicate of lenders or from subsequent assignees of such interests. The purchaser of an assignment
typically succeeds to all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement and has the same rights and obligations as the assigning
investor. However, assignments through private negotiations may cause the purchaser of an assignment to have different and more
limited rights than those held by the assigning investor. The Trust may also purchase participations in the original syndicate
making Senior Loans. Such indebtedness may be secured or unsecured. Loan participations typically represent direct participations
in a loan to a corporate borrower, and generally are offered by banks or other financial institutions or lending syndicates. The
Trust may participate in such syndications, or can buy part of a loan, becoming a part lender. When purchasing loan participations,
the Trust assumes the credit risk associated with the corporate Borrower and may assume the credit risk associated with an interposed
bank or other financial intermediary. The participation interests in which the Trust intends to invest may not be rated by any
Rating Agency.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may purchase and retain in its portfolio loans where
the Borrowers have experienced, or may be perceived to be likely to experience, credit problems, including default, involvement
in or recent emergence from bankruptcy reorganization proceedings or other forms of debt restructuring. At times, in connection
with the restructuring of a loan either outside of bankruptcy court or in the context of bankruptcy court proceedings, the Trust
may determine or be required to accept equity securities or junior debt securities in exchange for all or a portion of a loan.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may also purchase unsecured loans, other floating-rate
debt securities such as notes, bonds and asset-backed securities (such as special purpose trusts investing in bank loans), credit-linked
notes, tranches of collateralized loan obligations, investment grade fixed-income debt obligations and money market instruments,
such as commercial paper.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Loans are subject to the risk that a court, pursuant to fraudulent
conveyance or other similar laws, could subordinate a loan to presently existing or future indebtedness of the borrower, or take
other action detrimental to the holders of a loan including, in certain circumstances, invalidating the loans or causing interest
previously paid to be returned to the borrower.&nbsp; Any such actions by a court could negatively affect the Trust&rsquo;s performance.
Loans that are secured and senior to other debtholders of a borrower tend to have more favorable loss recovery rates as compared
to more junior types of below investment grade debt obligations. Due to their lower place in the borrower&rsquo;s capital structure
and, in some cases, their unsecured status, junior loans involve a higher degree of overall risk than senior loans of the same
borrower.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Investing in loans involves the risk of default by the borrower
or other party obligated to repay the loan.&nbsp; In the event of insolvency of the borrower or other obligated party, the Trust
may be treated as a general creditor of such entity unless it has rights that are senior to that of other creditors or secured
by specific collateral or assets of the borrower.&nbsp; Fixed rate loans are also subject to the risk that their value will decline
in a rising interest rate environment.&nbsp; This risk is mitigated for floating-rate loans, where the interest rate payable on
the loan resets periodically by reference to a base lending rate.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Many loans in which the Trust will invest may not be rated by
a Rating Agency, will not be registered with the SEC or any state securities commission and will not be listed on any national
securities exchange. In evaluating the creditworthiness of Borrowers, the Adviser will consider, and may rely in part, on analyses
performed by others. Borrowers may have outstanding debt obligations that are rated below investment grade by a Rating Agency.
Many of the loans held by the Trust will have been assigned ratings below investment grade by Rating Agencies. In the event loans
are not rated, they are likely to be the equivalent of below investment grade quality. Because of the protective features of Senior
Loans, the Adviser believes, based on its experience, that Senior Loans tend to have more favorable loss recovery rates as compared
to more junior types of below investment grade debt obligations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">U.S. federal securities laws afford certain protections against
fraud and misrepresentation in connection with the offering or sale of a security, as well as against manipulation of trading markets
for securities. The typical practice of a lender in relying exclusively or primarily on reports from the borrower may involve the
risk of fraud, misrepresentation, or market manipulation by the borrower. It is unclear whether U.S. federal securities law protections
are available to an investment in a loan. In certain circumstances, loans may not be deemed to be securities, and in the event
of fraud or misrepresentation by a borrower, lenders may not have the protection of the anti-fraud provisions of the federal securities
laws. However, contractual provisions in the loan documents may offer some protections, and lenders may also avail themselves of
common-law fraud protections under applicable state law.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In addition to the risks generally associated with debt instruments,
such as credit, market, interest rate and liquidity risks, loans are also subject to the risk that the value of any collateral
securing a loan may decline, be insufficient to meet the obligations of the borrower or be difficult to liquidate.&nbsp; The specific
collateral used to secure a loan may decline in value or become illiquid, which would adversely affect the loan&rsquo;s value.&nbsp;
The Trust&rsquo;s access to collateral may be limited by bankruptcy, other insolvency laws or by the type of loan the Trust has
purchased.&nbsp; For example, if the Trust purchases a participation instead of an assignment, it would not have direct access
to collateral of the borrower.&nbsp; As a result, a floating rate loan may not be fully collateralized and can decline significantly
in value.&nbsp; Additionally, collateral on loan instruments may not be readily liquidated, and there is no assurance that the
liquidation of such assets will satisfy a borrower&rsquo;s obligations under the investment.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">When interest rates decline, the value of a fund invested in
fixed-rate obligations can be expected to rise. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the value of a fund invested in fixed-rate
obligations can be expected to decline. Although changes in prevailing interest rates can be expected to cause some fluctuations
in the value of Senior Loans (due to the fact that floating-rates on Senior Loans only reset periodically), the value of Senior
Loans is less sensitive to changes in market interest rates than fixed-rate instruments. As a result, the Adviser expects the Trust&rsquo;s
policy of investing a portion of its assets in floating-rate Senior Loans will make the Trust less volatile and less sensitive
to changes in market interest rates than if the Trust invested exclusively in fixed-rate obligations. Similarly, a sudden and significant
increase in market interest rates may cause a decline in the value of these investments and in the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value.
Other factors (including, but not limited to, rating downgrades, credit deterioration, a large downward movement in stock prices,
a disparity in supply and demand of certain Senior Loans and other securities or market conditions that reduce liquidity) can reduce
the value of Senior Loans and other debt obligations, impairing the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Although the overall size and number of participants in the market
for loans has grown over the past decade, loans continue to trade in a private, unregulated inter-dealer or inter-bank secondary
market. The amount of public information available with respect to Senior Loans will generally be less extensive than that available
for registered or exchange listed securities. With limited exceptions, the adviser will take steps intended to ensure that it does
not receive material nonpublic information about the issuers of Senior Loans that also issue publicly traded securities. Therefore
the adviser may have less information than other investors about certain of the Senior Loans in which it seeks to invest. Purchases
and sales of loans are generally subject to contractual restrictions that must be satisfied before a loan can be bought or sold.
These restrictions may (i) impede the Trust&rsquo;s ability to buy or sell loans, (ii) negatively impact the transaction price,
(iii) impact the counterparty credit risk borne by the Trust, (iv) impede the Trust&rsquo;s ability to timely vote or otherwise
act with respect to loans, (v) expose the Trust to adverse tax or regulatory consequences and (vi) result in delayed settlement
of loan transactions. It may take longer than seven days for transactions in loans to settle. This is partly due to the nature
of loans and the contractual restrictions noted above, which require a written assignment agreement and various ancillary documents
for each transfer, and frequently require discretionary consents from both the borrower and the administrative agent. In light
of the foregoing, the Trust may hold cash, sell securities or temporarily borrow from banks or other lenders to meet short-term
liquidity needs due to the extended loan settlement process.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Adviser uses an independent pricing service to value most
loans and other debt securities at their market value. The Adviser may use the fair value method to value loans or other securities
if a security or a loan is not priced by a pricing service, a pricing service&rsquo;s price is deemed unreliable, or if events
occur after the close of a securities market (usually a foreign market) and before the Trust values its assets would materially
affect net asset value. A security that is fair valued may be valued at a price higher or lower than actual market quotations or
the value determined by other funds using their own fair valuation procedures. Because foreign securities trade on days when the
Common Shares are not priced, net asset value can change at times when Common Shares cannot be sold.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Second
Lien Loans and Debt Securities.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in loans and other debt securities that have the same characteristics
as Senior Loans except that such loans are second in lien priority rather than first. Such &ldquo;second lien&rdquo; loans and
securities like Senior Loans typically have adjustable floating-rate interest payments. Accordingly, the risks associated with
&ldquo;second lien&rdquo; loans are higher than the risks of loans with first priority over the collateral. In the event of default
on a &ldquo;second lien&rdquo; loan, the first priority lien holder has first claim to the underlying collateral of the loan. It
is possible that no collateral value would remain for the second priority lien holder, and therefore result in a loss of investment
to the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Collateralized
Loan Obligations (&ldquo;CLOs&rdquo;).</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in certain asset-backed securities as discussed below. Asset-backed
securities are payment claims that are securitized in the form of negotiable paper that is issued by a financing company (generically
called a Special Purpose Vehicle or &ldquo;SPV&rdquo;). These securitized payment claims are, as a rule, corporate financial assets
brought into a pool according to specific diversification rules. The SPV is a company founded solely for the purpose of securitizing
these claims and its only asset is the risk arising out of this diversified asset pool. On this basis, marketable securities are
issued which, due to the diversification of the underlying risk, generally represent a lower level of risk than the original assets.
The redemption of the securities issued by the SPV takes place at maturity out of the cash flow generated by the collected claims.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">A CLO is a structured credit security issued by an SPV that was
created to reapportion the risk and return characteristics of a pool of assets. The assets, typically Senior Loans, are used as
collateral supporting the various debt tranches issued by the SPV. The key feature of the CLO structure is the prioritization of
the cash flows from a pool of debt securities among the several classes of CLO holders, thereby creating a series of obligations
with varying rates and maturities appealing to a wide range of investors. CLOs generally are secured by an assignment to a trustee
under the indenture pursuant to which the bonds are issued of collateral consisting of a pool of debt instruments, usually, non-investment
grade bank loans. Payments with respect to the underlying debt securities generally are made to the trustee under the indenture.
CLOs are designed to be retired as the underlying debt instruments are repaid. In the event of sufficient early prepayments on
such debt instruments, the class or series of CLO first to mature generally will be retired prior to maturity. Therefore, although
in most cases the issuer of CLOs will not supply additional collateral in the event of such prepayments, there will be sufficient
collateral to secure their priority with respect to other CLO tranches that remain outstanding. The credit quality of these securities
depends primarily upon the quality of the underlying assets, their priority with respect to other CLO tranches and the level of
credit support and/or enhancement provided.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The underlying assets (e.g., loans) are subject to prepayments
which shorten the securities&rsquo; weighted average maturity and may lower their return. If the credit support or enhancement
is exhausted, losses or delays in payment may result if the required payments of principal and interest are not made. The value
of these securities also may change because of changes in market value, that is changes in the market&rsquo;s perception of the
creditworthiness of the servicing agent for the pool, the originator of the pool, or the financial institution or fund providing
the credit support or enhancement. The Trust will indirectly bear any management fees and expenses incurred by a CLO.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Collateralized
Debt Obligations (&ldquo;CDOs&rdquo;).</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in CDOs. A CDO is a structured credit security issued by
an SPV that was created to reapportion the risk and return characteristics of a pool of assets. The assets, typically non-investment
grade bonds, leveraged loans, and other asset-backed obligations, are used as collateral supporting the various debt and equity
tranches issued by the SPV. The key feature of the CDO structure is the prioritization of the cash flows from a pool of debt securities
among the several classes of CDO holders, thereby creating a series of obligations with varying rates and maturities appealing
to a wide range of investors. CDOs generally are secured by an assignment to a trustee under the indenture pursuant to which the
bonds are issued of collateral consisting of a pool of debt securities, usually, non-investment grade bonds. Payments with respect
to the underlying debt securities generally are made to the trustee under the indenture. CDOs are designed to be retired as the
underlying debt securities are repaid. In the event of sufficient early prepayments on such debt securities, the class or series
of CDO first to mature generally will be retired prior to maturity. Therefore, although in most cases the issuer of CDOs will not
supply additional collateral in the event of such prepayments, there will be sufficient collateral to secure CDOs that remain outstanding.
The credit quality of these securities depends primarily upon the quality of the underlying assets and the level of credit support
and/or enhancement provided. CDOs operate similarly to CLOs and are subject to the same inherent risks.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Foreign
Securities.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in Senior Loans and other debt securities of non-U.S. issuers. Investment in securities
of non-U.S. issuers involves special risks, including that non-U.S. issuers may be subject to less rigorous accounting and reporting
requirements than U.S. issuers, less rigorous regulatory requirements, differing legal systems and laws relating to creditors&rsquo;
rights, the potential inability to enforce legal judgments and the potential for political, social and economic adversity. The
willingness and ability of sovereign issuers to pay principal and interest on government securities depends on various economic
factors, including among others the issuer&rsquo;s balance of payments, overall debt level, and cash flow considerations related
to the availability of tax or other revenues to satisfy the issuer&rsquo;s obligations. The securities of some foreign issuers
are less liquid and at times more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers. Foreign settlement procedures and trade
regulations may involve certain risks (such as delay in the payment or delivery of securities and interest or in the recovery of
assets held abroad) and expenses not present in the settlement of domestic investments. Investments may include securities issued
by the governments of lesser-developed countries, which are sometimes referred to as &ldquo;emerging markets.&rdquo; There may
be a possibility of nationalization or expropriation of assets, imposition of currency exchange controls, confiscatory taxation,
political or financial instability, armed conflict and diplomatic developments which could affect the value of the Trust&rsquo;s
investments in certain foreign countries. Foreign issuers may become subject to sanctions imposed by the United States or another
country, which could result in the immediate freeze of the foreign issuers&rsquo; assets or securities. The imposition of such
sanctions could impair the market value of the securities of such foreign issuers and limit the Trust&rsquo;s ability to buy, sell,
receive or deliver the securities. Trading in certain foreign markets is also subject to liquidity risks.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The value of foreign assets and currencies as measured in U.S.
dollars may be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes in foreign currency rates and exchange control regulations, application
of foreign tax laws (including withholding tax), governmental administration of economic or monetary policies (in this country
or abroad), and relations between nations and trading.&nbsp; Foreign currencies also are subject to settlement, custodial and other
operational risks. Currency exchange rates can be affected unpredictably by intervention, or the failure to intervene, by U.S.
or foreign governments or central banks or by currency controls or political developments in the United States or abroad.&nbsp;
If the U.S. dollar rises in value relative to a foreign currency, a security denominated in that foreign currency will be worth
less in U.S. dollars. If the U.S. dollar decreases in value relative to a foreign currency, a security denominated in that foreign
currency will be worth more in U.S. dollars.&nbsp; A devaluation of a currency by a country&rsquo;s government or banking authority
will have a significant impact on the value of any investments denominated in that currency.&nbsp; Costs are incurred in connection
with conversions between currencies.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Political events in foreign countries may cause market disruptions.
In June 2016, the United Kingdom (&ldquo;UK&rdquo;) voted in a referendum to leave the European Union (&ldquo;EU&rdquo;) (&ldquo;Brexit&rdquo;).
Effective January 31, 2020, the UK ceased to be a member of the EU following a period of impasse within the UK Parliament, and
the holding of an early general election in December 2019 to break the deadlock. The European Parliament and UK Government are
expected to focus attention on the nature of the UK&rsquo;s future relationship with the EU during an agreed transitional period.
There is significant market uncertainty regarding Brexit&rsquo;s ramifications, and the range and potential implications of possible
political, regulatory, economic, and market outcomes in the UK, EU and beyond are difficult to predict. Brexit may cause greater
market volatility and illiquidity, currency fluctuations, deterioration in economic activity, a decrease in business confidence,
and increased likelihood of a recession in the UK. If one or more additional countries leave the EU or the EU dissolves, the world&rsquo;s
securities markets likely will be significantly disrupted. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Corporate
Bonds and Other Debt Securities.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in a wide variety of bonds, debentures and similar debt securities
of varying maturities and durations issued by corporations and other business entities, including limited liability companies.
Debt securities in which the Trust may invest may pay fixed or variable rates of interest. Bonds and other debt securities generally
are issued by corporations and other issuers to borrow money from investors. The issuer pays the investor a fixed or variable rate
of interest and normally must repay the amount borrowed on or before maturity. Certain debt securities are &ldquo;perpetual&rdquo;
in that they have no maturity date. The Trust may invest in bonds and other debt securities of any quality. As discussed below,
Non-Investment Grade Bonds, commonly known as &ldquo;junk bonds,&rdquo; are considered to be predominantly speculative in nature
because of the credit risk of the issuers.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Non-Investment
Grade Bonds.</B></FONT> As indicated above, Non-Investment Grade Bonds are those rated lower than investment grade (i.e., bonds
rated lower than Baa3 by Moody&rsquo;s and lower than BBB- by S&amp;P and Fitch) or are unrated and of comparable quality as determined
by the Adviser. Non-Investment Grade Bonds rated BB and Ba have speculative characteristics, while lower rated Non-Investment Grade
Bonds are predominantly speculative.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may hold securities that are unrated or in the lowest
rating categories (rated C by Moody&rsquo;s or D by S&amp;P or Fitch). Bonds rated C by Moody&rsquo;s are regarded as having extremely
poor prospects of ever attaining any real investment standing. Bonds rated D by S&amp;P or Fitch are in payment default or a bankruptcy
petition has been filed and debt service payments are jeopardized. In order to enforce its rights with defaulted securities, the
Trust may be required to retain legal counsel and/or a financial adviser. This may increase the Trust&rsquo;s operating expenses
and adversely affect net asset value.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The credit quality of most securities held by the Trust reflects
a greater than average possibility that adverse changes in the financial condition of an issuer, or in general economic conditions,
or both, may impair the ability of the issuer to make payments of interest and principal. The inability (or perceived inability)
of issuers to make timely payment of interest and principal would likely make the values of securities held by the Trust more volatile
and could limit the Trust&rsquo;s ability to sell its securities at favorable prices. In the absence of a liquid trading market
for securities held by it, the Trust may have difficulties determining the fair market value of such securities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Although the Adviser considers security ratings when making investment
decisions, it generally performs its own credit and investment analysis and does not rely primarily on the ratings assigned by
the rating agencies. In evaluating the quality of a particular investment, whether rated or unrated, the Adviser will normally
take into consideration, among other things, the issuer&rsquo;s financial resources and operating history, its sensitivity to economic
conditions and trends, the ability of its management, its debt maturity schedules and borrowing requirements, and relative values
based on anticipated cash flow, interest and asset coverage, and earnings prospects. Credit ratings are based largely on the issuer&rsquo;s
historical financial condition and a rating agency&rsquo;s investment analysis at the time of rating: the rating assigned to any
particular security is not necessarily a reflection of the issuer&rsquo;s current financial condition. The rating assigned to a
security or other instrument by a rating agency does not reflect assessment of the volatility of its market value or liquidity.
Credit quality in the sectors of the market can change from time to time, and recently issued credit ratings may not fully reflect
the actual risks posed by a particular investment.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Because of the greater number of investment considerations involved
in investing in investments that receive lower ratings, investing in lower rated investments depends more on the Adviser&rsquo;s
judgment and analytical abilities than may be the case for investing in investments with higher ratings. While the Adviser will
attempt to reduce the risks of investing in lower rated or unrated securities through active portfolio management, diversification,
credit analysis and attention to current developments and trends in the economy and the financial markets, there can be no assurance
that a broadly diversified portfolio of such securities would substantially lessen the risks of defaults brought about by an economic
downturn or recession.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Investments in obligations rated below investment grade and comparable
unrated securities (sometimes referred to as &ldquo;junk&rdquo;) generally entail greater economic, credit and liquidity risks
than investment grade securities. Lower rated investments have speculative characteristics because of the credit risk associated
with their issuers. Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances typically have a greater effect on the ability of issuers
of lower rated investments to make principal and interest payments than they do on issuers of higher rated investments. An economic
downturn generally leads to a higher non-payment rate, and a lower rated investment may lose significant value before a default
occurs. Lower rated investments generally are subject to greater price volatility and illiquidity than higher rated investments.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust&rsquo;s high yield securities may have fixed or variable
principal payments and all types of interest rate and dividend payment and reset terms, including fixed rate, adjustable rate,
zero coupon, contingent, deferred, and payment in kind features.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Convertible
Securities</B></FONT><B><FONT STYLE="font-family: NewsGoth Lt BT,sans-serif">.</FONT></B> The Trust may invest in convertible securities.
A convertible security is a bond, debenture, note, preferred security, or other security that entitles the holder to acquire common
stock or other equity securities of the same or a different issuer.&nbsp; A convertible security entitles the holder to receive
interest paid or accrued or dividends paid until the convertible security matures or is redeemed, converted or exchanged.&nbsp;
Before conversion, convertible securities have characteristics similar to nonconvertible income securities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Holders of convertible securities generally have a claim on the
assets of the issuer prior to the common stockholders but may be subordinated to other debt securities of the same issuer. Certain
convertible debt securities may provide a put option to the holder, which entitles the holder to cause the securities to be redeemed
by the issuer at a premium over the stated principal amount of the debt securities under certain circumstances.&nbsp; Certain convertible
securities may include loss absorption characteristics that make the securities more debt-like.&nbsp; This is particularly true
of convertible securities issued by companies in the financial services sector.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The value of a convertible security may be influenced by changes
in interest rates, with investment value declining as interest rates increase and increasing as interest rates decline. The credit
standing of the issuer and other factors also may have an effect on the convertible security&rsquo;s investment value. A convertible
security may be subject to redemption at the option of the issuer at a price established in the convertible security&rsquo;s governing
instrument.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Government
Securities.</B></FONT> U.S. Government securities include (1) U.S. Treasury obligations, which differ in their interest rates,
maturities and times of issuance: U.S. Treasury bills (maturities of one year or less), U.S. Treasury notes (maturities of one
year to ten years) and U.S. Treasury bonds (generally maturities of greater than ten years) and (2) obligations issued or guaranteed
by U.S. Government agencies and instrumentalities that are supported by any of the following: (a) the full faith and credit of
the U.S. Treasury, (b) the right of the issuer to borrow an amount limited to a specific line of credit from the U.S. Treasury,
(c) discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase certain obligations of the U.S. Government agency or instrumentality
or (d) the credit of the agency or instrumentality. The Trust may also invest in any other security or agreement collateralized
or otherwise secured by U.S. Government securities. Agencies and instrumentalities of the U.S. Government include but are not limited
to: Federal Land Banks, Federal Financing Banks, Banks for Cooperatives, Federal Intermediate Credit Banks, Farm Credit Banks,
Federal Home Loan Banks, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Federal National Mortgage Association, Government National Mortgage
Association, Student Loan Marketing Association, United States Postal Service, Small Business Administration, Tennessee Valley
Authority and any other enterprise established or sponsored by the U.S. Government. Because the U.S. Government generally is not
obligated to provide support to its instrumentalities, the Trust will invest in obligations issued by these instrumentalities only
if the Adviser determines that the credit risk with respect to such obligations is minimal.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The principal of and/or interest on certain U.S. Government securities
which may be purchased by the Trust could be (a) payable in foreign currencies rather than U.S. dollars or (b) increased or diminished
as a result of changes in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the value of foreign currencies. The value of such portfolio
securities may be affected favorably by changes in the exchange rate between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Because of their high credit quality and market liquidity, U.S.
Treasury and Agency Securities generally provide a lower current return than obligations of other issuers. While the U.S. Government
has provided financial support to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in the past, but there can be no assurance that it will support these
or other government-sponsored enterprises in the future.</P>

Paper.</B></FONT> Commercial paper represents short-term unsecured promissory notes issued in bearer form by corporations such
as banks or bank holding companies and finance companies. The rate of return on commercial paper may be linked or indexed to the
level of exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and a foreign currency or currencies.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Forward
Commitments and When-Issued Securities.</B></FONT> The Trust may purchase securities on a &ldquo;forward commitment&rdquo; or &ldquo;when-issued&rdquo;
basis (meaning securities are purchased or sold with payment and delivery taking place in the future). In such a transaction, the
Trust is securing what is considered to be an advantageous price and yield at the time of entering into the transaction.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The yield on a comparable security when the transaction is consummated
may vary from the yield on the security at the time that the forward commitment or when-issued transaction was made. From the time
of entering into the transaction until delivery and payment is made at a later date, the securities that are the subject of the
transaction are subject to market fluctuations. In forward commitment or when-issued transactions, if the seller or buyer, as the
case may be, fails to consummate the transaction, the counterparty may miss the opportunity of obtaining a price or yield considered
to be advantageous. Forward commitment or when-issued transactions may be expected to occur a month or more before delivery is
due. No payment or delivery is made, however, until payment is received or delivery is made from the other party to the transaction.
These transactions may create leverage in the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Restricted
and Illiquid Securities.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest without limitation in Senior Loans and other investments for which there
is no readily available trading market or are otherwise illiquid. Restricted securities include securities legally restricted as
to resale, such as commercial paper issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act, and securities eligible for resale pursuant
to Rule 144A thereunder, and securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers initially offered and sold outside the United States pursuant
to Regulation S thereunder. Such securities may, however, be treated as liquid by the Adviser after considering factors such as
trading activity, availability of market quotations and number of dealers willing to purchase the security. If the Trust invests
in Rule 144A securities, the level of portfolio illiquidity may be increased to the extent that eligible buyers become uninterested
in purchasing such securities. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">It may be difficult to sell such securities at a price representing
the fair value until such time as such securities may be sold publicly. Where registration is required, a considerable period may
elapse between a decision to sell the securities and the time when it would be permitted to sell. Thus, the Trust may not be able
to obtain as favorable a price as that prevailing at the time of the decision to sell. The Trust may incur additional expense when
disposing of restricted securities, including all or a portion of the costs to register the securities. The Trust may also acquire
securities through private placements under which it may agree to contractual restrictions on the resale of such securities. Such
restrictions might prevent their sale at a time when such sale would otherwise be desirable.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">At times, a portion of the Trust&rsquo;s assets may be invested
in securities as to which the Trust, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the investment adviser and its affiliates,
holds a major portion or all of such securities. Restricted and illiquid securities may be difficult to value properly and may
involve greater risks than liquid securities. It may be difficult to sell illiquid securities at a price representing fair value
until such time as the securities may be sold publicly.&nbsp; Under adverse market or economic conditions or in the event of adverse
changes in the financial condition of the issuer, the Trust could find it more difficult to sell such securities when the investment
adviser believes it advisable to do so or may be able to sell such securities only at prices lower than if such securities were
more widely held.&nbsp; It also may be more difficult to determine the fair value of such securities for purposes of computing
the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value.&nbsp; Even if determined to be liquid, holdings of restricted securities may increase the level
of Trust illiquidity if eligible buyers become uninterested in purchasing them. Restricted securities may involve a high degree
of business and financial risk which may result in substantial losses.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Derivatives.</B></FONT>
Generally, derivatives can be characterized as financial instruments whose performance is derived at least in part from the performance
of an underlying reference instrument. Derivative instruments may be acquired in the United States or abroad consistent with the
Trust&rsquo;s investment strategy and may include the various types of exchange-traded and over-the-counter (&ldquo;OTC&rdquo;)
instruments described herein and other instruments with substantially similar characteristics and risks. Trust obligations created
pursuant to derivative instruments may give rise to leverage, which would subject the Trust to the requirements described under
&ldquo;Asset Coverage&rdquo; in the Trust&rsquo;s SAI. The Trust may invest in a derivative transaction if it is permitted to own,
invest in, or otherwise have economic exposure to the reference instrument. Depending on the type of derivative instrument and
the Trust&rsquo;s investment strategy, a reference instrument could be a security, instrument, index, currency, commodity, economic
indicator or event (&ldquo;reference instruments&rdquo;). As described more specifically below, the Trust may purchase or sell
derivative instruments (which are instruments that derive their value from another instrument, security or index) to seek to hedge
against fluctuations in securities prices or interest rates or for the purpose of leveraging the Trust. The Trust&rsquo;s transactions
in derivatives instruments may include the purchase or sale of futures contracts on securities, indices and other financial instruments,
credit-linked notes, tranches of collateralized loan obligations and/or collateralized debt obligations, options on futures contracts,
forward foreign currency exchange contracts, and exchange-traded and over-the-counter options on securities or indices, index-linked
securities, and interest rate, total return and credit default swaps. The Trust may trade in the specific type(s) and/or combinations
of derivative transactions listed below. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Derivative instruments are subject to a number of risks, including
adverse or unexpected movements in the price of the reference instrument, and counterparty, credit, interest rate, liquidity, market,
tax and leverage risks. In addition, derivatives also involve the risk that changes in their value may not correlate perfectly
with the assets, rates, indices or instruments they are designed to hedge or closely track. Use of derivative instruments may cause
the realization of higher amounts of short-term capital gains (generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates) than if such instruments
had not been used. Success in using derivative instruments to hedge portfolio assets depends on the degree of price correlation
between the derivative instruments and the hedged asset. Imperfect correlation may be caused by several factors, including temporary
price disparities among the trading markets for the derivative instrument, the reference instrument and the Trust&rsquo;s assets.
To the extent that a derivative instrument is intended to hedge against an event that does not occur, the Trust may realize losses.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">OTC derivative instruments involve an additional risk in that
the issuer or counterparty may fail to perform its contractual obligations. Some derivative instruments are not readily marketable
or may become illiquid under adverse market conditions. In addition, during periods of market volatility, an option or commodity
exchange or swap execution facility or clearinghouse may suspend or limit trading in an exchange-traded derivative instrument,
which may make the contract temporarily illiquid and difficult to price. Commodity exchanges may also establish daily limits on
the amount that the price of a futures contract or futures option can vary from the previous day&rsquo;s settlement price. Once
the daily limit is reached, no trades may be made that day at a price beyond the limit. This may prevent the closing out of positions
to limit losses. The staff of the SEC takes the position that certain purchased OTC options, and assets used as cover for written
OTC options, are illiquid. The ability to terminate OTC derivative instruments may depend on the cooperation of the counterparties
to such contracts. For thinly traded derivative instruments, the only source of price quotations may be the selling dealer or counterparty.
In addition, certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &ldquo;Code&rdquo;), limit the use of derivative
instruments. Derivatives permit the Trust to increase or decrease the level of risk, or change the character of the risk, to which
its portfolio is exposed in much the same way as the Trust can increase or decrease the level of risk, or change the character
of the risk, of its portfolio by making investments in specific securities. There can be no assurance that the use of derivative
instruments will benefit the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The U.S. and non-U.S. derivatives markets have undergone substantial
change in recent years as a result of changes under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the &ldquo;Dodd-Frank
Act&rdquo;) in the United States and regulation changes in Europe, Asia and other non-U.S. jurisdictions. In particular, the Dodd-Frank
Act and related regulations require many derivatives to be cleared and traded on an exchange, expand entity registration requirements,
impose business conduct requirements on counterparties, and impose other regulatory requirements that will continue to change derivatives
markets as regulations are implemented. Additional future regulation of the derivatives markets may make the use of derivatives
more costly, may limit the availability or reduce the liquidity of derivatives, and may impose limits or restrictions on the counterparties
with which the Trust engages in derivative transactions. Trust management cannot predict the effects of any new governmental regulation
that may be implemented, and future regulation may impair the effectiveness of the Trust&rsquo;s derivative transactions and its
ability to achieve its investment objectives.</P>

Contracts.</I></B></FONT> Futures are standardized, exchange-traded contracts. Futures contracts on securities obligate a purchaser
to take delivery, and a seller to make delivery, of a specific amount of the financial instrument called for in the contract at
a specified future date at a specified price. An index futures contract obligates the purchaser to take, and a seller to deliver,
an amount of cash equal to a specific dollar amount times the difference between the value of a specific index at the close of
the last trading day of the contract and the price at which the agreement is made. No physical delivery of the underlying securities
in the index is made. It is the practice of holders of futures contracts to close out their positions on or before the expiration
date by use of offsetting contract positions, and physical delivery of financial instruments or delivery of cash, as applicable,
is thereby avoided. An option on a futures contract gives the holder the right to enter into a specified futures contract.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B><I>Credit-Linked
Notes.</I></B></FONT> The Trust may invest in credit-linked notes (&ldquo;CLN&rdquo;) for risk management purposes, including diversification.
A CLN is a type of hybrid instrument in which a special purpose entity issues a structured note (the &ldquo;Note Issuer&rdquo;)
with respect to which the reference instrument is a single bond, a portfolio of bonds or the unsecured credit of an issuer, in
general (each a &ldquo;Reference Credit&rdquo;). The purchaser of the CLN (the &ldquo;Note Purchaser&rdquo;) invests a par amount
and receives a payment during the term of the CLN that equals a fixed or floating rate of interest equivalent to a high-rated funded
asset (such as a bank certificate of deposit) plus an additional premium that relates to taking on the credit risk of the Reference
Credit. Upon maturity of the CLN, the Note Purchaser will receive a payment equal to: (i) the original par amount paid to the Note
Issuer, if there is no occurrence of a designated event of default, restructuring or other credit event (each a &ldquo;Credit Event&rdquo;)
with respect to the issuer of the Reference Credit; or (ii) the market value of the Reference Credit, if a Credit Event has occurred.
Depending upon the terms of the CLN, it is also possible that the Note Purchaser may be required to take physical delivery of the
Reference Credit in the event of Credit Event. Most CLNs use a corporate bond (or a portfolio of corporate bonds) as the Reference
Credit. However, almost any type of fixed-income security (including foreign government securities), index or derivative contract
(such as a credit default swap) can be used as the Reference Credit.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Swaps.</B></FONT>
Swap contracts may be purchased or sold to hedge against fluctuations in securities prices, interest rates or market conditions,
to change the duration of the overall portfolio, or to mitigate default risk. In a standard &ldquo;swap&rdquo; transaction, two
parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) to be exchanged or &ldquo;swapped&rdquo; between the
parties, which returns are calculated with respect to a &ldquo;notional amount,&rdquo; i.e., the return on or increase in value
of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate or in a &ldquo;basket&rdquo; of securities representing a
particular index.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><I>Interest
Rate Swaps.</I></FONT> The Trust will enter into interest rate and total return swaps only on a net basis, i.e., the two payment
streams are netted out, with the Trust receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments. Interest
rate swaps involve the exchange by the Trust with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest (e.g.,
an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating-rate payments). The Trust will only enter into interest rate swaps on a net basis.
If the other party to an interest rate swap defaults, the Trust&rsquo;s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that
the Trust is contractually entitled to receive. The net amount of the excess, if any, of the Trust&rsquo;s obligations over its
entitlements will be maintained in a segregated account by the Trust&rsquo;s custodian. The Trust will not enter into any interest
rate swap unless the claims-paying ability of the other party thereto is considered to be investment grade by the Adviser. If there
is a default by the other party to such a transaction, the Trust will have contractual remedies pursuant to the agreements related
to the transaction. These instruments are traded in the over-the-counter market.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">The Trust may use interest rate swaps for risk management
purposes only and not as a speculative investment and would typically use interest rate swaps to shorten the average interest rate
reset time of the Trust&rsquo;s holdings. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by the Trust with another party of their respective
commitments to pay or receive interest (e.g., an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating-rate payments). The use of interest
rate swaps is a highly specialized activity which involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with
ordinary portfolio securities transactions. If the Adviser is incorrect in its forecasts of market values, interest rates and other
applicable factors, the investment performance of the Trust would be unfavorably affected.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><I>Total
Return Swaps</I>.</FONT> As stated above, the Trust will enter into total return swaps only on a net basis. A total return swap
is a contract in which one party agrees to make periodic payments to another party based on the change in market value of a reference
instrument during the specified period, in return for periodic payments from the other party that are based on a fixed or variable
interest rate or the total return of the reference instrument or another reference instrument. Total return swap agreements may
be used to obtain exposure to a security or market without owning or taking physical custody of such security or investing directly
in such market.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><I>Credit
Default Swaps.</I></FONT> The Trust may enter into credit default swap contracts for risk management purposes, including diversification.
When the Trust is the buyer of a credit default swap contract, the Trust is entitled to receive the par (or other agreed-upon)
value of a referenced debt obligation from the counterparty to the contract in the event of a default by a third party, such as
a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer, on the debt obligation. In return, the Trust would pay the counterparty a periodic stream of
payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default has occurred. If no default occurs, the Trust would have
spent the stream of payments and received no benefit from the contract. When the Trust is the seller of a credit default swap contract,
it receives the stream of payments, but is obligated to pay upon default of the referenced debt obligation. As the seller, the
Trust would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Trust would be subject
to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. These transactions involve certain risks, including the risk that the
seller may be unable to fulfill the transaction.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">Credit default swap agreements (&ldquo;CDS&rdquo;)
enable the Trust to buy or sell credit protection on an individual issuer or basket of issuers (i.e., the reference instrument).
The Trust may enter into CDS to gain or short exposure to a reference instrument. Long CDS positions are utilized to gain exposure
to a reference instrument (similar to buying the instrument) and are akin to selling insurance on the instrument. Short CDS positions
are utilized to short exposure to a reference instrument (similar to shorting the instrument) and are akin to buying insurance
on the instrument.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">Under a CDS, the protection &ldquo;buyer&rdquo; in
a credit default contract is generally obligated to pay the protection &ldquo;seller&rdquo; an upfront or a periodic stream of
payments over the term of the contract, provided that no credit event, such as a default, on a reference instrument has occurred.
If a credit event occurs, the seller generally must pay the buyer the &ldquo;par value&rdquo; (full notional value) of the reference
instrument in exchange for an equal face amount of the reference instrument described in the swap, or the seller may be required
to deliver the related net cash amount, if the swap is cash settled. If the Trust is a buyer and no credit event occurs, the Trust
may recover nothing if the swap is held through its termination date. As a seller, the Trust generally receives an upfront payment
or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. The Trust&rsquo;s obligations
under a CDS will be accrued daily (offset against any amounts owed to the Trust).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">In response to market events, federal and certain
state regulators have proposed regulation of the CDS market. These regulations may limit the Trust&rsquo;s ability to use CDS and/or
the benefits of CDS. CDS may be difficult to value and generally pay a return to the party that has paid the premium only in the
event of an actual default by the issuer of the underlying obligation (as opposed to a credit downgrade or other indication of
financial difficulty). The Trust may have difficulty, be unable or may incur additional costs to acquire any securities or instruments
it is required to deliver under a CDS. The Trust may have limited ability to eliminate its exposure under a CDS either by assignment
or other disposition, or by entering into an offsetting swap agreement. The Trust also may have limited ability to eliminate its
exposure under a CDS if the reference instrument has declined in value.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Futures
and Options on Futures.</B></FONT> The Trust may purchase and sell various kinds of financial futures contracts and options thereon
to seek to hedge against changes in interest rates or for other risk management purposes. Futures contracts may be based on various
debt securities and securities indices. Such transactions involve a risk of loss or depreciation due to unanticipated adverse changes
in securities prices, which may exceed the Trust&rsquo;s initial investment in these contracts. The Trust will only purchase or
sell futures contracts or related options in compliance with the rules of the CFTC. These transactions involve transaction costs.
There can be no assurance that Eaton Vance&rsquo;s use of futures will be advantageous to the Trust. Rating Agency guidelines on
any preferred shares issued by the Trust, including APS, may limit use of these transactions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Options.</B></FONT>
Options may be traded on an exchange and OTC. By buying a put option on a particular instrument, the Trust acquires a right to
sell the underlying instrument at the exercise price. By buying a put option on an index, the Trust acquires a right to receive
the cash difference between the strike price of the option and the index price at expiration. A purchased put position also typically
can be sold at any time by selling at prevailing market prices. Purchased put options generally are expected to limit the Trust's
risk of loss through a decline in the market value of the underlying security or index until the put option expires. When buying
a put, the Trust pays a premium to the seller of the option. If the price of the underlying security or index is above the exercise
price of the option as of the option valuation date, the option expires worthless and the Trust will not be able to recover the
option premium paid to the seller. The Trust may purchase uncovered put options on securities, meaning it will not own the securities
underlying the option. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust may also write (i.e., sell) put options. The Trust
will receive a premium for selling a put option, which may increase the Trust's return. In selling a put option on a security,
the Trust has the obligation to buy the security at an agreed upon price if the price of such instrument decreases below the exercise
price. By selling a put option on an index, the Trust has an obligation to make a payment to the buyer to the extent that the value
of the index decreases below the exercise price as of the option valuation date. If the value of the underlying security or index
on the option&rsquo;s expiration date is above the exercise price, the option will generally expire worthless and the Trust, as
option seller, will have no obligation to the option holder. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust may purchase call options. By purchasing a call
option on a security, the Trust has the right to buy the security at the option&rsquo;s exercise price. By buying a call option
on an index, the Trust acquires the right to receive the cash difference between the market price of the index and strike price
at expiration. Call options typically can be exercised any time prior to option maturity or, sold at the prevailing market price.
</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust may also write (i.e., sell) a call option on a security
or index in return for a premium. A call written on a security obligates the Trust to deliver the underlying security at the option
exercise price. Written index call options obligate the Trust to make a cash payment to the buyer at expiration if the market price
of the index is above the option strike price. Calls typically can also be bought back by the Trust at prevailing market prices
and the Trust also may enter into closing purchase transactions with respect to written call options. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust&rsquo;s options positions are marked to market daily.
The value of options is affected by changes in the value and dividend rates of their underlying instruments, changes in interest
rates, changes in the actual or perceived volatility of the relevant index or market and the remaining time to the options&rsquo;
expiration, as well as trading conditions in the options market. The hours of trading for options may not conform to the hours
during which the underlying instruments are traded. To the extent that the options markets close before markets for the underlying
instruments, significant price and rate movements can take place in the markets that would not be reflected concurrently in the
options markets. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust's ability to sell the instrument underlying a call
option may be limited while the option is in effect unless the Trust enters into a closing purchase transaction. Uncovered call
options have speculative characteristics and are riskier than covered call options because there is no underlying instrument held
by the Trust that can act as a partial hedge. As the seller of a covered call option or an index call option, the Trust may forego,
during the option&rsquo;s life, the opportunity to profit from increases in the market value of the underlying instrument covering
the call option above the sum of the premium received by the Trust and the exercise price of the call. The Trust also retains the
risk of loss, minus the option premium received, should the price of the underlying instrument decline. </P>

same credit evaluation and regulatory oversight as are members of &ldquo;exchange-based&rdquo; markets. OTC option contracts generally
carry greater liquidity risk than exchange-traded contracts. This risk may be increased in times of financial stress, if the trading
market for OTC options becomes restricted. The ability of the Trust to transact business with any one or a number of counterparties
may increase the potential for losses to the Trust, due to the lack of any independent evaluation of the counterparties or their
financial capabilities, and the absence of a regulated market to facilitate settlement of the options. </P>

Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts.</B></FONT> A forward foreign currency exchange contract (&ldquo;currency forward&rdquo;) involves
an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date of
the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. These contracts may be bought or sold to protect
against an adverse change in the relationship between currencies or to increase exposure to a particular foreign currency. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Certain currency forwards may be individually negotiated and
privately traded, exposing them to credit and counterparty risks. The precise matching of the currency forward amounts and the
value of the instruments denominated in the corresponding currencies will not generally be possible. In addition, it may not be
possible to hedge against long-term currency changes. Currency forwards are subject to the risk of political and economic factors
applicable to the countries issuing the underlying currencies. Furthermore, unlike trading in most other types of instruments,
there is no systematic reporting of last sale information with respect to the foreign currencies underlying currency forwards.
As a result, available information may not be complete. </P>

Risk.</B></FONT> A financial institution or other counterparty with whom the Trust does business (such as trading or as a derivatives
counterparty), or that underwrites, distributes or guarantees any instruments that the Trust owns or is otherwise exposed to, may
decline in financial condition and become unable to honor its commitments. This could cause the value of Trust shares to decline
or could delay the return or delivery of collateral or other assets to the Trust. Counterparty risk is increased for contracts
with longer maturities. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Securities
Lending.</B></FONT> The Trust may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers and other institutional borrowers. During the
existence of a loan, the Trust will continue to receive the equivalent of the interest paid by the issuer on the securities loaned,
or all or a portion of the interest on investment of the collateral, if any. The Trust may pay lending fees to such borrowers.
Loans will only be made to firms that have been approved by the investment adviser, and the investment adviser or the securities
lending agent will periodically monitor the financial condition of such firms while such loans are outstanding. Securities loans
will only be made when the investment adviser believes that the expected returns, net of expenses, justify the attendant risks.
Securities loans currently are required to be secured continuously by collateral in cash, cash equivalents (such as money market
instruments) or other liquid securities held by the custodian and maintained in an amount at least equal to the market value of
the securities loaned. The Trust may engage in securities lending to generate income. Upon return of the loaned securities, the
Trust would be required to return the related collateral to the borrower and may be required to liquidate portfolio securities
in order to do so. The Trust may lend up to one-third of the value of its total assets or such other amount as may be permitted
by law.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">As with other extensions of credit, there are risks of delay
in recovery or even loss of rights in the securities loaned if the borrower of the securities fails financially. To the extent
that the portfolio securities acquired with such collateral have decreased in value, it may result in the Trust realizing a loss
at a time when it would not otherwise do so. As such, securities lending may introduce leverage into the Trust. The Trust also
may incur losses if the returns on securities that it acquires with cash collateral are less than the applicable rebate rates paid
to borrowers and related administrative costs.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Borrowings.</B></FONT>
The Trust may borrow money to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act as interpreted, modified or otherwise permitted by the regulatory
authority having jurisdiction. Under the 1940 Act, the Trust is not permitted to incur indebtedness, including through the issuance
of debt securities, unless immediately thereafter the total asset value of the Trust&rsquo;s portfolio is at least 300% of the
liquidation value of the outstanding indebtedness (i.e., such liquidation value may not exceed 33 1/3% of the Trust&rsquo;s total
assets). The Trust may also borrow money for temporary administrative purposes. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust has entered into a Credit Agreement (the &ldquo;Agreement&rdquo;)
with a bank to borrow up to a limit of $255 million pursuant to a 364-day revolving line of credit. Borrowings under the Agreement
are secured by the assets of the Trust. Interest is generally charged at a rate above LIBOR and is payable monthly. Under the terms
of the Agreement, in effect through March 17, 2020, the Trust pays a facility fee of 0.15% on the borrowing limit. In connection
with the renewal of the Agreement on March 19, 2019, the Trust paid an upfront fee of $127,500, which is being amortized to interest
expense through March 17, 2020. The Trust is required to maintain certain net asset levels during the term of the Agreement. As
of October 31, 2019, the Trust had borrowings outstanding under the Agreement of $218 million at an interest rate of 2.69%. The
carrying amount of the borrowings at October 31, 2019 approximated its fair value. For the year ended October 31, 2019, the average
borrowings under the Agreement and the average interest rate (excluding fees) were $223,676,712 and 3.18%, respectively. In addition,
the credit facility may in the future be replaced or refinanced by one or more credit facilities having substantially different
terms or by the issuance of preferred shares or debt securities. The interest rates at which the Trust may borrow are subject to
change, and such changes may increase the Trust&rsquo;s borrowing costs. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Repurchase
Agreements.</B></FONT> The Trust may enter into repurchase agreements (the purchase of a security coupled with an agreement to
resell at a higher price) with respect to its permitted investments. A repurchase agreement is the purchase by the Trust of securities
from a counterparty in exchange for cash that is coupled with an agreement to resell those securities to the counterparty at a
specified date and price. Repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days that the investment adviser believes may not be
terminated within seven days at approximately the amount at which the Trust has valued the agreements are considered illiquid securities.
When a repurchase agreement is entered into, the Trust typically receives securities with a value that equals or exceeds the repurchase
price, including any accrued interest earned on the agreement. The value of such securities will be marked to market daily, and
cash or additional securities will be exchanged between the parties as needed. Except in the case of a repurchase agreement entered
into to settle a short sale, the value of the securities delivered to the Trust will be at least equal to repurchase price during
the term of the repurchase agreement. The terms of a repurchase agreement entered into to settle a short sale may provide that
the cash purchase price paid by the Trust is more than the value of purchased securities that effectively collateralize the repurchase
price payable by the counterparty. Since in such a transaction the Trust normally will have used the purchased securities to settle
the short sale, the Trust will segregate liquid assets equal to the marked to market value of the purchased securities that it
is obligated to return to the counterparty under the repurchase agreement. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In the event of the insolvency of the counterparty to a repurchase
agreement, recovery of the repurchase price owed to the Trust may be delayed. In a repurchase agreement, such an insolvency may
result in a loss to the extent that the value of the purchased securities decreases during the delay or that value has otherwise
not been maintained at an amount equal to the repurchase price. Repurchase agreements may create leverage in the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Reverse
Repurchase Agreements.</B></FONT> While the Trust has no current intention to enter into reverse repurchase agreements, the Trust
reserves the right to enter into reverse repurchase agreements in the future, at levels that may vary over time. Under a reverse
repurchase agreement, the Trust temporarily transfers possession of a portfolio instrument to another party, such as a bank or
broker-dealer, in return for cash. At the same time, the Trust agrees to repurchase the instrument at an agreed upon time and price,
which reflects an interest payment. The Trust may enter into such agreements when it is able to invest the cash acquired at a rate
higher than the cost of the agreement, which would increase earned income. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In the event of the insolvency of the counterparty to a reverse
repurchase agreement, recovery of the securities sold by the Trust may be delayed. In a reverse repurchase agreement, the counterparty&rsquo;s
insolvency may result in a loss equal to the amount by which the value of the securities sold by the Trust exceeds the repurchase
price payable by the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">When the Trust enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, any
fluctuations in the market value of either the securities transferred to another party or the securities in which the proceeds
may be invested would affect the market value of the Trust&rsquo;s assets. As a result, such transactions may increase fluctuations
in the market value of the Trust&rsquo;s assets. While there is a risk that large fluctuations in the market value of the Trust&rsquo;s
assets could affect net asset value, this risk is not significantly increased by entering into reverse repurchase agreements, in
the opinion of the Adviser. Because reverse repurchase agreements may be considered to be the practical equivalent of borrowing
funds, they constitute a form of leverage. The SEC views reverse repurchase transactions as collateralized borrowings by a fund.
Such agreements will be treated as subject to investment restrictions regarding &ldquo;borrowings.&rdquo; If the Trust reinvests
the proceeds of a reverse repurchase agreement at a rate lower than the cost of the agreement, entering into the agreement will
lower the Trust&rsquo;s yield.</P>

Investment Vehicles.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in pooled investment vehicles. Pooled investment vehicles are open- and closed-end
investment companies unaffiliated with the investment adviser, open-end investment companies affiliated with the investment adviser
and exchange-traded funds (&ldquo;ETFs&rdquo;). The Trust will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any management fees and
other operating expenses paid by unaffiliated and certain affiliated pooled investment vehicles in which it invests. If such fees
exceed 0.01%, the costs associated with such investments will be reflected under Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses in the Trust&rsquo;s
Annual Fund Operating Expenses table(s) in its Trust Summary. Requirements of the 1940 Act may limit the Trust&rsquo;s ability
to invest in other investment companies, including ETFs. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Pooled investment vehicles are subject to the risks of investing
in the underlying securities or other instruments that they own. The market for common shares of closed-end investment companies

by the demand for those securities, regardless of the value of such fund&rsquo;s underlying securities. </P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">USE OF LEVERAGE AND RELATED RISKS</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Generally, leverage involves the use of proceeds from the
issuance of preferred shares or borrowed funds, or various financial instruments (such as derivatives). Leverage can increase both
the risk and return profile of the Trust. The Trust currently uses leverage created by issuing APS as well as by loans acquired
with borrowings. On January 26, 2004, the Trust issued 3,940 Series A APS, 3,940 Series B APS, 3,940 Series C APS and 3,940 Series
D APS, with a liquidation preference per share of $25,000 plus accumulated but unpaid dividends. As of December 31, 2012, 2,627
Series A APS, 2,627 Series B APS, 2,627 Series C APS and 2,627 Series D APS had been redeemed. The APS have seniority over the
Common Shares. On September 23, 2016, the Trust repurchased 354 Series A APS, 354 Series B APS, 354 Series C APS and 354 Series
D APS. On September 14, 2018, the Trust repurchased 220 Series A APS, 196 Series B APS, 221 Series C APS and 167 Series D APS.
In addition, in connection with this repurchase, the Trust has entered into an Agreement with a bank to borrow up to a limit of
$255 million pursuant to a 364-day revolving line of credit. Borrowings under the Agreement are secured by the assets of the Trust.
Interest is generally charged at a rate above LIBOR and is payable monthly. Under the terms of the Agreement, in effect through
March 17, 2020, the Trust pays a facility fee of 0.15% on the borrowing limit. In connection with the renewal of the Agreement
on March 19, 2019, the Trust paid an upfront fee of $127,500, which is being amortized to interest expense through March 17, 2020.
The Trust is required to maintain certain net asset levels during the term of the Agreement. As of October 31, 2019, the Trust
had $218 million in outstanding borrowings, at an interest rate of 2.69%, in addition to outstanding APS. The Adviser anticipates
that the use of leverage (from such issuance of APS and any borrowings) may result in higher income to Common Shareholders over
time. Use of financial leverage creates an opportunity for increased income but, at the same time, creates special risks. There
can be no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The costs of the financial leverage program (from any issuance
of preferred shares and any borrowings) are borne by Common Shareholders and consequently result in a reduction of the NAV of Common
Shares. During periods in which the Trust is using leverage, the fees paid to Eaton Vance for investment advisory services will
be higher than if the Trust did not use leverage because the fees paid will be calculated on the basis of the Trust&rsquo;s gross
assets, including proceeds from the issuance of preferred shares and any borrowings. In this regard, holders of debt or preferred
securities do not bear the investment advisory fee. Rather, Common Shareholders bear the portion of the investment advisory fee
attributable to the assets purchased with the proceeds, which means that Common Shareholders effectively bear the entire advisory
fee.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Leverage creates risks for holders of the Common Shares, including
the likelihood of greater volatility of NAV and market price of the Common Shares. There is a risk that fluctuations in the distribution
rates on any outstanding preferred shares may adversely affect the return to the holders of the Common Shares. If the income from
the investments purchased with the proceeds of leverage is not sufficient to cover the cost of leverage, the return on the Trust
will be less than if leverage had not been used, and, therefore, the amount available for distribution to Common Shareholders will
be reduced. The Adviser in its best judgment nevertheless may determine to maintain the Trust&rsquo;s leveraged position if it
deems such action to be appropriate in the circumstances.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Changes in the value of the Trust&rsquo;s investment portfolio
(including investments bought with the proceeds of leverage) will be borne entirely by the Common Shareholders. If there is a net
decrease (or increase) in the value of the Trust&rsquo;s investment portfolio, the leverage will decrease (or increase) the NAV
per Common Share to a greater extent than if the Trust were not leveraged. During periods in which the Trust is using leverage,
the fees paid to Eaton Vance for investment advisory services will be higher than if the Trust did not use leverage because the
fees paid will be calculated on the basis of the Trust&rsquo;s gross assets, including the proceeds from the issuance of preferred
shares and any borrowings. As discussed under &ldquo;Description of Capital Structure,&rdquo; the Trust&rsquo;s issuance of preferred
shares may alter the voting power of Common Shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Capital raised through leverage will be subject to distribution
and/or interest payments, which may exceed the income and appreciation on the assets purchased. The issuance of preferred shares
involves offering expenses and other costs and may limit the Trust&rsquo;s freedom to pay distributions on Common Shares or to
engage in other activities. The issuance of a class of preferred shares having priority over the Common Shares creates an opportunity
for greater return per Common Share, but at the same time such leveraging is a speculative technique that will increase the Trust&rsquo;s
exposure to capital risk. Unless the income and appreciation, if any, on assets acquired with offering proceeds exceed the cost
of issuing additional classes of securities (and other Trust expenses), the use of leverage will diminish the investment performance
of the Common Shares compared with what it would have been without leverage.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust is subject to certain restrictions on investments imposed
by guidelines of one or more Rating Agencies that issued ratings for preferred shares issued by the Trust. These guidelines impose
asset coverage or Trust composition requirements that are more stringent than those imposed on the Trust by the 1940 Act. These
covenants or guidelines do not currently and are not expected to impede Eaton Vance in managing the Trust&rsquo;s portfolio in
accordance with its investment objectives and policies and it is not anticipated that they will so impede Eaton Vance in the future.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Under the 1940 Act, the Trust is not permitted to issue preferred
shares unless immediately after such issuance the total asset value of the Trust&rsquo;s portfolio is at least 200% of the liquidation
value of the outstanding preferred shares plus the amount of any senior security representing indebtedness (i.e., such liquidation
value and amount of indebtedness may not exceed 50% of the Trust&rsquo;s total assets). In addition,
the Trust is not permitted to declare any cash distribution on its Common Shares unless, at the time of such declaration, the NAV
of the Trust&rsquo;s portfolio (determined after deducting the amount of such distribution) is at least 200% of such liquidation
value plus amount of indebtedness. The Trust </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">To qualify for federal income taxation as a &ldquo;regulated

net interest income and net short-term gain). The Trust also will be required to distribute annually substantially all of its income
and capital gain, if any, to avoid imposition of a nondeductible 4% federal excise tax. If the Trust is precluded from making distributions
on the Common Shares because of any applicable asset coverage requirements, the terms of the preferred shares may provide that
any amounts so precluded from being distributed, but required to be distributed for the Trust to meet the distribution requirements
for qualification as a regulated investment company, will be paid to the holders of the preferred shares as a special distribution.
This distribution can be expected to decrease the amount that holders of preferred shares would be entitled to receive upon redemption
or liquidation of the shares.</P>

the return to a holder of the Common Shares of leverage in the amount of approximately 35.5% of the Trust&rsquo;s gross assets,

increases the return to Common Shareholders when portfolio return is positive and greater than the cost of leverage and decreases

and actual returns may be greater or less than those appearing in the table. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Risk is inherent in all investing. Investing in any investment
company security involves risk, including the risk that you may receive little or no return on your investment or even that you

value of the Common Shares may increase or decrease from the amount initially paid for the Common Shares. The Trust&rsquo;s Common
Shares have traded both at a premium and at a discount relative to net asset value. The shares of closed-end management investment

may increase or decrease in response to economic, political and financial events (whether real, expected or perceived) in the U.S.
and global markets. The frequency and magnitude of such changes in value cannot be predicted. Certain securities and other investments
held by the Trust may experience increased volatility, illiquidity, or other potentially adverse effects in reaction to changing
market conditions.&nbsp; Actions taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve or foreign central banks to stimulate or stabilize economic
growth, such as decreases or increases in short-term interest rates, could cause high volatility in markets. No active trading
market may exist for certain investments, which may impair the ability of the Trust to sell or to realize the current valuation
of such investments in the event of the need to liquidate such assets.&nbsp; Fixed-income markets may experience periods of relatively
high volatility in an environment where U.S. treasury yields are rising.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Senior
Loans Risk.</B></FONT> The risks associated with Senior Loans are similar to the risks of Non-Investment Grade Bonds (discussed
below), although Senior Loans are typically senior and secured in contrast to Non-Investment Grade Bonds, which are often subordinated
and unsecured. Senior Loans&rsquo; higher standing has historically resulted in generally higher recoveries in the event of a corporate
reorganization or other restructuring. In addition, because their interest rates are adjusted for changes in short-term interest
rates, Senior Loans generally have less interest rate risk than Non-Investment Grade Bonds, which are typically fixed rate. The
Trust&rsquo;s investments in Senior Loans are typically below investment grade and are considered speculative because of the credit
risk of their issuers. Such companies are more likely to default on their payments of interest and principal owed to the Trust,
and such defaults could reduce the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value and income distributions. An economic downturn generally leads
to a higher non-payment rate, and a debt obligation may lose significant value before a default occurs. Moreover, any specific
collateral used to secure a loan may decline in value or lose all its value or become illiquid, which would adversely affect the
loan&rsquo;s value. &ldquo;Junior Loans&rdquo; are secured and unsecured subordinated loans, second lien loans and subordinate
bridge loans. Senior Loans and Junior Loans are referred to together herein as &ldquo;loans.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Loans and other debt securities are also subject to the risk
of price declines and to increases in prevailing interest rates, although floating-rate debt instruments are less exposed to this
risk than fixed-rate debt instruments. Interest rate changes may also increase prepayments of debt obligations and require the
Trust to invest assets at lower yields.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Loans are traded in a private, unregulated inter-dealer or inter-bank
resale market and are generally subject to contractual restrictions that must be satisfied before a loan can be bought or sold.
These restrictions may impede the Trust&rsquo;s ability to buy or sell loans (thus affecting their liquidity) and may negatively
impact the transaction price. See also &ldquo;Market Risk&rdquo; above. It also may take longer than seven days for transactions
in loans to settle. Due to the possibility of an extended loan settlement process, the Trust may hold cash, sell investments or
temporarily borrow from banks or other lenders to meet short-term liquidity needs. The types of covenants included in loan agreements
generally vary depending on market conditions, the creditworthiness of the issuer, the nature of the collateral securing the loan
and possibly other factors. Loans with fewer covenants that restrict activities of the borrower may provide the borrower with more
flexibility to take actions that may be detrimental to the loan holders and provide fewer investor protections in the event of
such actions or if</P>

greater realized or unrealized losses or delays and expense in enforcing its rights with respect to loans with fewer restrictive

to loans to U.S. entities and may involve greater risks. The Trust may have difficulties and incur expense enforcing its rights
with respect to non-U.S. loans and such loans could be subject to bankruptcy laws that are materially different than in the U.S.
Loans may be structured such that they are not securities under securities law, and in the event of fraud or misrepresentation
by a borrower, lenders may not have the protection of the anti-fraud provisions of the federal securities laws. Loans are also
subject to risks associated with other types of income investments, including credit risk and risks of lower rated investments. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Credit
Risk.</B></FONT> Investments in loans and other debt obligations (referred to below as &ldquo;debt instruments&rdquo;) are subject
to the risk of non-payment of scheduled principal and interest. Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances may reduce
the capacity of the party obligated to make principal and interest payments on such instruments and may lead to defaults. Such
non-payments and defaults may reduce the value of Trust shares and income distributions. The value of debt instruments also may
decline because of concerns about the issuer&rsquo;s ability to make principal and interest payments. In addition, the credit ratings
of debt instruments may be lowered if the financial condition of the party obligated to make payments with respect to such instruments
deteriorates. In the event of bankruptcy of the issuer of a debt instrument, the Trust could experience delays or limitations with
respect to its ability to realize the benefits of any collateral securing the instrument. In order to enforce its rights in the
event of a default, bankruptcy or similar situation, the Trust may be required to retain legal or similar counsel, which may increase
the Trust&rsquo;s operating expenses and adversely affect net asset value. The Trust is also exposed to credit risk when it engages
in certain types of derivatives transactions, such as writing credit default swaps or purchasing credit linked notes or options
and when it engages in transactions that expose the Trust to counterparty risk. See &ldquo;Derivatives.&rdquo; Due to their lower
place in the borrower&rsquo;s capital structure, Junior Loans involve a higher degree of overall risk than Senior Loans to the
same borrower. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> In evaluating the quality of a particular instrument, the
investment adviser may take into consideration, among other things, a credit rating assigned by a credit rating agency, the issuer&rsquo;s
financial resources and operating history, its sensitivity to economic conditions and trends, the ability of its management, its
debt maturity schedules and borrowing requirements, and relative values based on anticipated cash flow, interest and asset coverage,
and earnings prospects. Credit rating agencies are private services that provide ratings of the credit quality of certain investments.
Credit ratings issued by rating agencies are based on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the issuer&rsquo;s financial
condition and the rating agency&rsquo;s credit analysis, if applicable, at the time of rating. As such, the rating assigned to
any particular security is not necessarily a reflection of the issuer&rsquo;s current financial condition. The ratings assigned
are not absolute standards of credit quality and do not evaluate market risks or necessarily reflect the issuer&rsquo;s current
financial condition or the volatility or liquidity of the security. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> A credit rating may have a modifier (such as plus, minus or
a numerical modifier) to denote its relative status within the rating. The presence of a modifier does not change the security
credit rating (for example, BBB- and Baa3 are within the investment grade rating) for purposes of the Trust&rsquo;s investment
limitations, if any. </P>

Rate Risk</B></FONT><B><FONT STYLE="font-family: NewsGoth Lt BT,sans-serif">.</FONT></B> In general, the value of income securities
will fluctuate based on changes in interest rates. The value of these securities is likely to increase when interest rates fall
and decline when interest rates rise. Duration measures the time-weighted expected cash flows of a fixed-income security, while
maturity refers to the amount of time until a fixed-income security matures. Generally, securities with longer durations or maturities
are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities with shorter durations or maturities, causing them to be more volatile.
Conversely, fixed-income securities with shorter durations or maturities will be less volatile but may provide lower returns than
fixed-income securities with longer durations or maturities. The impact of interest rate changes is significantly less for floating
rate instruments that have relatively short periodic rate resets (e.g., ninety days or less). In a rising interest rate environment,
the duration of income securities that have the ability to be prepaid or called by the issuer may be extended. In a declining interest
rate environment, the proceeds from prepaid or maturing instruments may have to be reinvested at a lower interest rate. Because
floating or variable rates on loans only reset periodically, changes in prevailing interest rates may cause some fluctuations in
the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value. Similarly, a sudden and significant increase in market interest rates may cause a decline in
the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value. A material decline in the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value may impair the Trust&rsquo;s ability
to maintain required levels of asset coverage. Certain instruments held by the Trust pay an interest rate based on the London Interbank
Offered Rate (&ldquo;LIBOR&rdquo;), which is the average offered rate for various maturities of short-term loans between certain
major international banks. LIBOR is expected to be phased out by the end of 2021. While the effect of the phase out cannot yet
be determined, it may result in, among other things, increased volatility or illiquidity in markets for instruments based on LIBOR
and changes in the value of such instruments. </P>

rate index used to make adjustments to variable-rate loans. It is used throughout global banking and financial industries to determine
interest rates for a variety of financial instruments (such as debt instruments and derivatives) and borrowing arrangements, and
to determine dividend rates for preferred shares. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The use of LIBOR started to come under pressure following
manipulation allegations in 2012. Despite increased regulation and other corrective actions since that time, concerns have arisen
regarding its viability as a benchmark, due largely to reduced activity in the financial markets that it measures. In July 2017,
the Financial Conduct Authority (the &ldquo;FCA&rdquo;), the United Kingdom financial regulatory body, announced a desire to phase
out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Although the period from the FCA announcement until the end
of 2021 is generally expected to be enough time for market participants to transition to the use of a different benchmark for new
securities and transactions, there remains uncertainty regarding the future utilization of LIBOR and the specific replacement rate
or rates. As such, the potential effect of a transition away from LIBOR on the Trust or the financial instruments held by the Trust
cannot yet be determined. The transition process may involve, among other things, increased volatility or illiquidity in markets
for instruments that currently rely on LIBOR. The transition may also result in a change in (i) the value of certain instruments
held by the Trust, (ii) the cost of borrowing or the dividend rate for preferred shares, or (iii) the effectiveness of related
Trust transactions such as hedges, as applicable. When LIBOR is discontinued, the LIBOR replacement rate may be lower than market
expectations, which could have an adverse impact on the value of preferred and debt-securities with floating or fixed-to-floating
rate coupons. Any such effects of the transition away from LIBOR, as well as other unforeseen effects, could result in losses to
the Trust. Since the usefulness of LIBOR as a benchmark could deteriorate during the transition period, these effects could occur
prior to the end of 2021. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Various financial industry groups have begun planning for
the transition away from LIBOR, but there are obstacles to converting certain longer term securities and transactions to a new
benchmark. In June 2017, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a group of large U.S. banks working with the Federal Reserve,
announced its selection of a new Secured Overnight Financing Rate (&ldquo;SOFR&rdquo;), which is intended to be a broad measure
of secured overnight U.S. Treasury repo rates, as an appropriate replacement for LIBOR. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York began
publishing the SOFR earlier in 2018, with the expectation that it could be used on a voluntary basis in new instruments and transactions.
Bank working groups and regulators in other countries have suggested other alternatives for their markets, including the Sterling
Overnight Interbank Average Rate (&ldquo;SONIA&rdquo;) in England. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Non-Investment
Grade Bonds Risk.</B></FONT> The Trust&rsquo;s investments in Non-Investment Grade Bonds, commonly referred to as &ldquo;junk
bonds,&rdquo; are predominantly speculative because of the credit risk of their issuers. While offering a greater potential opportunity
for capital appreciation and higher yields, Non-Investment Grade Bonds typically entail greater potential price volatility and
may be less liquid than higher-rated securities. Issuers of Non-Investment Grade Bonds are more likely to default on their payments
of interest and principal owed to the Trust, and such defaults will reduce the Trust&rsquo;s net asset value and income distributions.
The prices of these lower rated obligations are more sensitive to negative developments than higher rated securities. Adverse
business conditions, such as a decline in the issuer&rsquo;s revenues or an economic downturn, generally lead to a higher non-payment
rate. In addition, a security may lose significant value before a default occurs as the market adjusts to expected higher non-payment
rates.&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Prepayment
Risk.</B></FONT> During periods of declining interest rates or for other purposes, Borrowers may exercise their option to prepay
principal earlier than scheduled. For fixed-income securities, such payments often occur during periods of declining interest rates,
forcing the Trust to reinvest in lower yielding securities. This is known as call or prepayment risk. Non-Investment Grade Bonds
frequently have call features that allow the issuer to redeem the security at dates prior to its stated maturity at a specified
price (typically greater than par) only if certain prescribed conditions are met (&ldquo;call protection&rdquo;). An issuer may
redeem a Non-Investment Grade Bond if, for example, the issuer can refinance the debt at a lower cost due to declining interest
rates or an improvement in the credit standing of the issuer. Senior Loans typically have no such call protection. For premium
bonds (bonds acquired at prices that exceed their par or principal value) purchased by the Trust, prepayment risk may be enhanced.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Lower
Rated Investments Risk.</B></FONT> Investments rated below investment grade and comparable unrated investments (sometimes referred
to as &ldquo;junk&rdquo;) have speculative characteristics because of the credit risk associated with their issuers. Changes in
economic conditions or other circumstances typically have a greater effect on the ability of issuers of lower rated investments
to make principal and interest payments than they do on issuers of higher rated investments. An economic downturn generally leads
to a higher non-payment rate, and a lower rated investment may lose significant value before a default occurs. Lower rated investments
typically are subject to greater price volatility and illiquidity than higher rated investments. </P>

of corporate income-producing securities held by the Trust may decline for a number of reasons, which directly relate to the issuer,

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Derivatives
Risk.</B></FONT> The Trust&rsquo;s exposure to derivatives involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks
associated with investing directly in securities and other investments. The use of derivatives can lead to losses because of adverse
movements in the price or value of the security, instrument, index, currency, commodity, economic indicator or event underlying
a derivative (&ldquo;reference instruments&rdquo;), due to failure of a counterparty or due to tax or regulatory constraints.
Derivatives may create leverage in the Trust, which represents a non-cash exposure to the reference instrument. Leverage can increase
both the risk and return potential of the Trust. Derivatives risk may be more significant when derivatives are used to enhance
return or as a substitute for a cash investment position, rather than solely to hedge the risk of a position held by the Trust.

may be difficult to value, may be illiquid, and may be subject to wide swings in valuation caused by changes in the value of the
underlying reference instrument. If a derivative&rsquo;s counterparty is unable to honor its commitments, the value of Trust shares
may decline and the Trust could experience delays in the return of collateral or other assets held by the counterparty. The loss
on derivative transactions may substantially exceed the initial investment, particularly when there is no stated limit on the

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Leverage
Risk.</B></FONT> Certain Trust transactions may give rise to leverage. Leverage can result from a non-cash exposure to an asset,
index, rate or instrument. Leverage can increase both the risk and return potential of the Trust. The Trust is required to segregate
liquid assets or otherwise cover the Trust&rsquo;s obligation created by a transaction that may give rise to leverage. The use
of leverage may cause the Trust to liquidate portfolio positions when it may not be advantageous to do so to satisfy its obligations
or to meet segregation requirements. Leverage may cause the Trust&rsquo;s share price to be more volatile than if it had not been
leveraged, as certain types of leverage may exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of the Trust&rsquo;s
portfolio securities. The loss on leveraged investments may substantially exceed the initial investment. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> As discussed above, the Trust currently uses leverage created
by issuing APS and borrowings. On January 26, 2004, the Trust issued 3,940 Series A APS, 3,940 Series B APS, 3,940 Series C APS
and 3,940 Series D APS, with a liquidation preference per share of $25,000 plus accumulated but unpaid dividends. As of December
31, 2012, 2,627 Series A APS, 2,627 Series B APS, 2,627 Series C APS and 2,627 Series D APS had been redeemed. On September 23,
2016, the Trust repurchased 354 Series A APS, 354 Series B APS, 354 Series C APS and 354 Series D APS. On September 14, 2018, the
Trust repurchased 220 Series A APS, 196 Series B APS, 221 Series C APS and 167 Series D APS. In addition, in connection with this
repurchase, the Trust has entered into an Agreement with a bank to borrow up to a limit of $255 million pursuant to a 364-day revolving
line of credit. The Trust is required to maintain certain net asset levels during the term of the Agreement. As of October 31,
2019, the Trust had $218 million in outstanding borrowings, at an interest rate of 2.69%, in addition to outstanding APS. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Adviser anticipates that the use of leverage (from the
issuance of APS and borrowings) may result in higher income to Common Shareholders over time. Leverage creates risks for Common
Shareholders, including the likelihood of greater volatility of NAV and market price of the Common Shares and the risk that fluctuations
in dividend rates on APS and costs of borrowings may affect the return to Common Shareholders.&#8194;<FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><U>See
also &ldquo;LIBOR Transition and Associated Risk.&rdquo;</U></FONT> To the extent the income derived from investments purchased
with funds received from leverage exceeds the cost of leverage, the Trust&rsquo;s distributions will be greater than if leverage
had not been used. Conversely, if the income from the investments purchased with such funds is not sufficient to cover the cost
of leverage, the amount available for distribution to Common Shareholders will be less than if leverage had not been used. In the
latter case, Eaton Vance, in its best judgment, may nevertheless determine to maintain the Trust&rsquo;s leveraged position if
it deems such action to be appropriate. While the Trust has preferred shares outstanding, an increase in short-term rates would
also result in an increased cost of leverage, which would adversely affect the Trust&rsquo;s income available for distribution.
There can be no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In addition, under current federal income tax law, the Trust
is required to allocate a portion of any net realized capital gains or other taxable income to APS holders. The terms of the Trust&rsquo;s
APS require the Trust to pay to any APS holders additional dividends intended to compensate such holders for taxes payable on any
capital gains or other taxable income allocated to such holders. Any such additional dividends will reduce the amount available
for distribution to Common Shareholders. As discussed under &ldquo;Management of the Trust,&rdquo; the fee paid to Eaton Vance
is calculated on the basis of the Trust&rsquo;s gross assets, including proceeds from the issuance of APS and borrowings, so the
fees will be higher when leverage is utilized. In this regard, holders of APS do not bear the investment advisory fee. Rather,
Common Shareholders bear the portion of the investment advisory fee attributable to the assets purchased with the proceeds, which
means that Common Shareholders effectively bear the entire advisory fee.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The APS have been rated AAA by Fitch and Aa3 by Moody's. The
Trust currently intends to seek to maintain this rating or an equivalent credit rating on the APS or any preferred shares it issues.
The Rating Agencies which rate the preferred shares and any bank lender in connection with a credit facility or commercial paper
program may also impose specific restrictions as a condition to borrowing. Such restrictions may include asset coverage or portfolio
composition requirements that are more stringent than those imposed on the Trust by the 1940 Act. These covenants or guidelines
do not currently and are not expected to impede Eaton Vance in managing the Trust&rsquo;s portfolio in accordance with its investment
objectives and policies and it is not anticipated that they will so impede Eaton Vance in the future. See &ldquo;Description of

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Financial leverage may also be achieved through the purchase
of certain derivative instruments. The Trust&rsquo;s use of derivative instruments exposes the Trust to special risks. See &ldquo;Investment
Objectives, Policies and Risks - Additional Investment Practices&rdquo; and &ldquo;Investment Objectives, Policies, and Risks
- Additional Risk Considerations.&rdquo;&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Foreign
Investment Risk.</B></FONT> Investments in foreign issuers could be affected by factors not present in the United States, including
expropriation, armed conflict, confiscatory taxation, lack of uniform accounting and auditing standards, less publicly available
financial and other information, and potential difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations. Because foreign issuers may not
be subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standard practices and requirements and regulatory measures
comparable to those in the United States, there may be less publicly available information about such foreign issuers. Settlements
of securities transactions in foreign countries are subject to risk of loss, may be delayed and are generally less frequent than
in the United States, which could affect the liquidity of the Trust&rsquo;s assets. Evidence of ownership of certain foreign investments
may be held outside the United States, and the Trust may be subject to the risks associated with the holding of such property overseas.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Foreign issuers may become subject to sanctions imposed by the
United States or another country, which could result in the immediate freeze of the foreign issuers&rsquo; assets or securities.
The imposition of such sanctions could impair the market value of the securities of such foreign issuers and limit the Trust&rsquo;s
ability to buy, sell, receive or deliver the securities. Trading in certain foreign markets is also subject to liquidity risks.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Political events in foreign countries may cause market disruptions.
In June 2016, the United Kingdom (&ldquo;UK&rdquo;) voted in a referendum to leave the European Union (&ldquo;EU&rdquo;) (&ldquo;Brexit&rdquo;).
Effective January 31, 2020, the UK ceased to be a member of the EU following a period of impasse within the UK Parliament, and
the holding of an early general election in December 2019 to break the deadlock. The European Parliament and UK Government are
expected to focus attention on the nature of the UK&rsquo;s future relationship with the EU during an agreed transitional period.
There is significant market uncertainty regarding Brexit&rsquo;s ramifications, and the range and potential implications of possible
political, regulatory, economic, and market outcomes in the UK, EU and beyond are difficult to predict. Brexit may cause greater
market volatility and illiquidity, currency fluctuations, deterioration in economic activity, a decrease in business confidence,
and increased likelihood of a recession in the UK. If one or more additional countries leave the EU or the EU dissolves, the world&rsquo;s
securities markets likely will be significantly disrupted. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Currency
Risk.</B></FONT> Exchange rates for currencies fluctuate daily. The value of foreign investments may be affected favorably or unfavorably
by changes in currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar. Currency markets generally are not as regulated as securities
markets and currency transactions are subject to settlement, custodial and other operational risks.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>U.S.
Government Securities Risk.</B></FONT> Although certain U.S. Government-sponsored agencies (such as the Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation and the Federal National Mortgage Association) may be chartered or sponsored by acts of Congress, their securities
are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. U.S. Treasury securities generally have a lower return than other obligations
because of their higher credit quality and market liquidity.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Liquidity
Risk.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest without limitation in Senior Loans and other investments for which there is no readily available
trading market or which are otherwise illiquid. The Trust may not be able to dispose readily of such investments at prices that
approximate those at which the Trust could sell such investments if they were more widely traded and, as a result of such illiquidity,
the Trust may have to sell other investments or engage in borrowing transactions if necessary to raise cash to meet its obligations.
In addition, the limited liquidity could affect the market price of the investments, thereby adversely affecting the Trust's net
asset value and ability to make dividend distributions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Some loans are not readily marketable and may be subject to contractual
restrictions that must be satisfied before a loan can be bought or sold. Loans generally are not listed on any national securities
exchange or automated quotation system and no active trading market may exist for some of the loans in which the Trust will invest.
Where a secondary market exists, such market for some loans may be subject to irregular activity, wide bid/ask spreads and extended
trade settlement periods. Loans that are illiquid may impair the Trust&rsquo;s ability to realize the full value of its assets
in the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation of such assets and thus may cause a decline in the Trust&rsquo;s net asset
value. The Trust has no limitation on the amount of its assets which may be invested in securities which are not readily marketable
or are subject to restrictions on resale.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In addition, the limited liquidity could affect the market price
of the investments, thereby adversely affecting the Trust&rsquo;s NAV and ability to make dividend distributions. The financial
markets in general have in recent years experienced periods of extreme secondary market supply and demand imbalance, resulting
in a loss of liquidity during which market prices were suddenly and substantially below traditional measures of intrinsic value.
During such periods, some investments could be sold only at arbitrary prices and with substantial losses. Periods of such market
dislocation may occur again at any time. The Trust has no limitation on the amount of its assets which may be invested in investments
which are not readily marketable or are subject to restrictions on resale.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Money
Market Instrument Risk.</B></FONT> Money market instruments may be adversely affected by market and economic events, such as a
sharp rise in prevailing short-term interest rates; adverse developments in the banking industry, which issues or guarantees many
money market instruments; adverse economic, political or other developments affecting issuers of money market instruments; changes
in the credit quality of issuers; and default by a counterparty.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Reinvestment
Risk.</B></FONT> Income from the Trust&rsquo;s portfolio will decline if and when the Trust invests the proceeds from matured,

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Inflation
Risk.</B></FONT> Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be worth less in the future
as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the real value of the Common Shares and distributions thereon
can decline. In addition, during any periods of rising inflation, dividend rates of preferred shares would likely increase, which
would tend to further reduce returns to Common Shareholders. This risk is mitigated to some degree by the Trust's investments in
Senior Loans. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Management
Risk.</B></FONT> The Trust is subject to management risk because it is actively managed. Eaton Vance and the individual portfolio
managers invest the assets of the Trust as they deem appropriate in implementing the Trust&rsquo;s investment strategy. Accordingly,
the success of the Trust depends upon the investment skills and analytical abilities of Eaton Vance and the individual portfolio
managers to develop and effectively implement strategies that achieve the Trust&rsquo;s investment objective. There is no assurance
that Eaton Vance and the individual portfolio managers will be successful in developing and implementing the Trust&rsquo;s investment
strategy. Subjective decisions made by Eaton Vance and the individual portfolio managers may cause the Trust to incur losses or
to miss profit opportunities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Cybersecurity
Risk.</B></FONT> With the increased use of technologies by Trust service providers to conduct business, such as the Internet, the
Trust is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate
attacks or unintentional events. Cyber attacks include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems
(e.g., through &ldquo;hacking&rdquo; or malicious software coding) for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information,
corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Cyber attacks may also be carried out in a manner that does not require gaining
unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on websites (i.e., efforts to make network services unavailable
to intended users). Cybersecurity failures or breaches by the Trust&rsquo;s investment adviser or administrator and other service
providers (including, but not limited to, the custodian or transfer agent), and the issuers of securities in which the Trust invests,
have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with
the Trust&rsquo;s ability to calculate its net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of Trust shareholders to transact
business, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other
compensation costs, or additional compliance costs. While various Trust service providers have established business continuity
plans and risk management systems intended to identify and mitigate cyber attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans
and systems including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, the Trust cannot control the cybersecurity
plans and systems put in place by service providers to the Trust and issuers in which the Trust invests.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Regulatory
Risk.</B></FONT> To the extent that legislation or state or federal regulators that regulate certain financial institutions impose
additional requirements or restrictions with respect to the ability of such institutions to make loans, particularly in connection
with highly leveraged transactions, the availability of Senior Loans for investment may be adversely affected. Further, such legislation
or regulation could depress the market value of Senior Loans.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Market
Disruption.</B></FONT> Global instability, war, geopolitical tensions and terrorist attacks in the United States and around the
world have previously resulted, and may continue to result in market volatility and may have long-term effects on the United States
and worldwide financial markets and may cause further economic uncertainties in the United States and worldwide. The Trust cannot
predict the effects of significant future events on the global economy and securities markets. A similar disruption of the financial
markets could impact interest rates, auctions, secondary trading, ratings, credit risk, inflation and other factors relating to
the Common Shares. In particular, Non-Investment Grade Bonds and Senior Loans tend to be more volatile than higher rated fixed-income
securities so that these events and any actions resulting from them may have a greater impact on the prices and volatility of Non-Investment
Grade Bonds and Senior Loans than on higher rated fixed-income securities. </P>

Provisions.</B></FONT> The Trust's Agreement and Declaration of Trust includes provisions that could have the effect of limiting
the ability of other persons or entities to acquire control of the Trust or to change the composition of its Board. These provisions
may have the effect of discouraging attempts to acquire control of the Trust, which attempts could have the effect of increasing
the expenses of the Trust and interfering with the normal operation of the Trust. See &ldquo;Description of Capital Structure -

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">THE ADVISER</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Eaton Vance acts as the Trust's investment adviser under an
Investment Advisory Agreement (the &ldquo;Advisory Agreement&rdquo;). The Adviser's principal office is located at Two International
Place, Boston, MA 02110. Eaton Vance, its affiliates and predecessor companies have been managing assets of individuals and institutions
since 1924 and of investment companies since 1931. As of December 31, 2019, Eaton Vance and its affiliates managed approximately
$518.6 billion of fund and separate account assets on behalf of clients, including approximately $34.2 billion in floating-rate
income assets. Eaton Vance is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eaton Vance Corp., a publicly-held holding company, which through its
subsidiaries and affiliates engages primarily in investment management, administration and marketing activities. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Under the general supervision of the Trust&rsquo;s Board, the
Adviser will carry out the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Trust, will furnish continuously an investment program
with respect to the Trust, will determine which securities should be purchased, sold or exchanged, and will implement such determinations.
The Adviser will furnish to the Trust investment advice and office facilities, equipment and personnel for servicing the investments
of the Trust. The Adviser will compensate all Trustees and officers of the Trust who are members of the Adviser&rsquo;s organization
and who render investment services to the Trust, and will also compensate all other Adviser personnel who provide research and
investment services to the Trust. In return for these services, facilities and payments, the Trust has agreed to pay the Adviser
as compensation under the Advisory Agreement a fee in the amount of 0.75% of the average daily gross assets of the Trust. Gross
assets of the Trust shall be calculated by deducting accrued liabilities of the Trust not including the amount of any preferred
shares&nbsp; outstanding or the principal amount of any indebtedness for money borrowed. During periods in which the Trust is using
leverage, the fees paid to Eaton Vance for investment advisory services will be higher than if the Trust did not use leverage because
the fees paid will be calculated on the basis of the Trust&rsquo;s gross assets, including proceeds from any borrowings and from
the issuance of preferred shares. The Trust is responsible for all expenses not expressly stated to be payable by another party
(such as the expenses required to be paid pursuant to an agreement with the investment adviser or administrator).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> William E. Holt, Catherine C. McDermott, Daniel P. McElaney,
Craig P. Russ and Andrew N. Sveen are Vice Presidents of Eaton Vance and are portfolio managers of the Trust. Mr. Russ has managed
the Trust since November 2003 and Messrs. Holt, McElaney and Sveen and Ms. McDermott have managed the Trust since March 2019. Messrs.
Holt, McElaney, Russ and Sveen and Ms. McDermott have been employed by Eaton Vance for more than five years and manage other Eaton
Vance funds. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust and the Adviser have adopted codes of ethics relating
to personal securities transactions (the &ldquo;Codes of Ethics&rdquo;). The Codes of Ethics permit Adviser personnel to invest

name any agent that could be viewed as an underwriter under the 1933 Act, and describe any commissions the Trust must pay to such
agent(s). Any such agent will be acting on a reasonable best efforts basis for the period of its appointment or, if indicated in
the applicable Prospectus Supplement or other offering materials, on a firm commitment basis. Agents, dealers and underwriters
may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for the Trust in the ordinary course of business.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">If any underwriters or agents are used in the sale of Common

a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise, in accordance with Rule 415(a)(4) under the 1933
Act. An at-the-market offering may be through an underwriter or underwriters acting as principal or agent for the Trust.</P>

of business.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In order to facilitate the Offering of Common Shares, any underwriters
may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of Common Shares or any other Common Shares the
prices of which may be used to determine payments on the Common Shares. Specifically, any underwriters may over-allot in connection
with the Offering, creating a short position for their own accounts. In addition, to cover over-allotments or to stabilize the
price of Common Shares or of any such other Common Shares, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, Common Shares or any such
other Common Shares in the open market. Finally, in any Offering of Common Shares through a syndicate of underwriters, the underwriting
syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allowed to an underwriter or a dealer for distributing Common Shares in the Offering
if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed Common Shares in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization
transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of Common Shares above independent
market levels. Any such underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any
time.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may enter into derivative transactions with third parties,

Supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell Common Shares covered by this Prospectus
and the applicable Prospectus Supplement or other offering materials, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third parties
may use Common Shares pledged by the Trust or borrowed from the Trust or others to settle those sales or to close out any related
open borrowings of securities, and may use Common Shares received from the Trust in settlement of those derivatives to close out
any related open borrowings of securities. The third parties in such sale transactions will be underwriters and, if not identified

income to Common Shareholders, after payment of any dividends on any outstanding APS. The amount of each monthly distribution will
vary depending on a number of factors, including dividends payable on the Trust's preferred shares or other costs of financial
leverage. As portfolio and market conditions change, the rate of dividends on the Common Shares and the Trust's dividend policy
could change. Over time, the Trust will distribute all of its net investment income (after it pays accrued dividends on any outstanding
preferred shares) or other costs of financial leverage. In addition, at least annually, the Trust intends to distribute all or
substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any).
Distributions to Common Shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to preferred shareholders are recorded
daily and are payable at the end of each dividend period.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Beginning February&nbsp;13, 2008 and consistent with the patterns
in the broader market for auction-rate securities, the Trust&rsquo;s APS auctions were unsuccessful in clearing due to an imbalance
of sell orders over bids to buy the APS. As a result, the dividend rates of the APS were reset to the maximum applicable rates.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis
and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions
in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences
between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions
from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Common Shareholders may elect automatically to reinvest some
or all of their distributions in additional Common Shares under the Trust's dividend reinvestment plan. See &ldquo;Distributions&rdquo;
and &ldquo;Dividend Reinvestment Plan.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">While there are any borrowings or preferred shares outstanding,

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust has elected to be treated as and intends to qualify
each year as a regulated investment company (&ldquo;RIC&rdquo;) under the Code. Accordingly, the Trust intends to satisfy certain
requirements relating to sources of its income and diversification of its assets and to distribute substantially all of its net
investment income, net tax-exempt interest income, if any, and capital gains, if any, (after reduction by any available capital
loss carryforwards) in accordance with the timing requirements imposed by the Code, so as to maintain its RIC status. If it qualifies
for treatment as a RIC and satisfies the above-mentioned distribution requirements, the Trust will not be subject to U.S. federal
income tax on income paid to its shareholders in the form of dividends. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> To qualify as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
the Trust must derive at least 90% of its annual gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to securities loans,
gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, or other income (including, but not limited
to, gains from options, futures or forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of investing in stock, securities and
currencies, and net income derived from an interest in a qualified publicly traded partnership. The Trust must also distribute
to its shareholders at least the sum of 90% of its investment company taxable income (as that term is defined in the Code, but
determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid) and 90% of its net tax-exempt interest income for each taxable year.
</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust must also satisfy certain requirements with respect
to the diversification of its assets. The Trust must have, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year, at least 50% of the
value of its total assets represented by cash and cash items, U.S. government securities, securities of other RICs, and other securities
that, in respect of any one issuer, do not represent more than 5% of the value of the assets of the Trust or more than 10% of the
voting securities of that issuer. In addition, at those times, not more than 25% of the value of the Trust&rsquo;s assets may be
invested, including through corporations in which the Trust owns a 20% or more voting stock interest, in securities (other than
U.S. Government securities or the securities of other RICs) of any one issuer, or of two or more issuers that the Trust controls
and which are engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses or related trades or businesses, or of one or more qualified
publicly traded partnerships.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In order to avoid incurring a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise
tax obligation, the Code requires that the Trust distribute (or be deemed to have distributed) by December&nbsp;31 of each calendar
year an amount at least equal to the sum of (i)&nbsp;98% of its ordinary income for such year, (ii)&nbsp;98.2% of its capital gain
net income, generally computed on the basis of the one-year period ending on October&nbsp;31 of such year, after reduction by any
available capital loss carryforwards and (iii)&nbsp;100% of any ordinary income and capital gain net income from the prior year
(as previously computed) that was not paid out during such year and on which the Trust paid no U.S. federal income tax.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">If the Trust does not qualify as a RIC for any taxable year,
the Trust&rsquo;s taxable income will be subject to corporate income taxes, and all distributions from earnings and profits, including
distributions of net capital gain (if any), will generally be taxable to the shareholder as ordinary income. Such distributions
will be treated as qualified dividend income with respect to shareholders who are individuals and will be eligible for the dividends
received deduction in the case of shareholders taxed as corporations, provided certain holding period and other requirements are
met. In order to requalify for taxation as a RIC, the Trust may be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay substantial taxes
and interest, and make substantial distributions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust intends to make monthly distributions of net investment
income after payment of dividends on any outstanding preferred shares or interest on any outstanding borrowings.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may also distribute its net realized capital gains,
if any, generally not more than once per year. Distributions of the Trust&rsquo;s net capital gains that are properly reported
(&ldquo;capital gain dividends&rdquo;), if any, are taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless of the length
of time shares have been held by shareholders. (Net capital gain is the excess (if any) of net long-term capital gain over net
short-term capital loss.) Dividends paid to shareholders out of the Trust&rsquo;s current and accumulated earnings and profits
will, except in the case of capital gain dividends, be taxable as ordinary income. Distributions, if any, in excess of the Trust&rsquo;s
earnings and profits will first reduce the adjusted tax basis of a holder&rsquo;s shares and, after that basis has been reduced
to zero, will constitute capital gains to the shareholder. Dividends paid by the Trust generally will not qualify for the reduced
tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income received by individual shareholders or the dividends received deduction generally
available to corporate shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Distributions will be treated in the manner described above regardless
of whether such distributions are paid in cash or invested in additional shares of the Trust. Shareholders receiving any distribution
from the Trust in the form of additional shares pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan will be treated as receiving a taxable
distribution in the amount they would have received if they had elected to receive the distribution in cash, unless the Trust issues
new shares that are trading at or above net asset value, in which case, such shareholders will be treated as receiving a distribution
in the amount equal to the fair market value of the shares received, determined as of the reinvestment date.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">As described in &ldquo;Distributions&rdquo; above, the Trust
may retain some or all of its net capital gain. If the Trust retains any net capital gain, it will be subject to tax at regular
corporate rates on the amount retained and will report the retained amount as undistributed capital gains as part of its annual
reporting to its shareholders who, if subject to U.S. federal income tax on long-term capital gains, (i)&nbsp;will be required
to include in income for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as long-term capital gain, their share of such undistributed amount;
(ii)&nbsp;will be entitled to credit their proportionate shares of the tax paid by the Trust on such undistributed amount against
their U.S. federal income tax liabilities, if any; and (iii)&nbsp;will be entitled to claim refunds to the extent the credit exceeds
such liabilities. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the tax basis of Common Shares owned by a Common Shareholder will be increased
by an amount equal to the difference between the amount of undistributed capital gains included in the shareholder&rsquo;s gross
income and the tax deemed paid by the Common Shareholder under clause (ii)&nbsp;of the preceding sentence.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Internal Revenue Service (&ldquo;IRS&rdquo;) currently
requires that a RIC that has two or more classes of stock allocate to each such class proportionate amounts of each type of its
income (such as ordinary income and capital gains) based on the percentage of total dividends paid to each class for the tax year.
Accordingly, if the Trust issues preferred shares, such as VRTP Shares, it will designate dividends made with respect to Common
Shares and preferred shares as consisting of particular types of income (e.g., net capital gain and ordinary income) in accordance
with the proportionate share of each class in the total dividends paid by the Trust during the year. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates
between the time the Trust accrues income or receivables or expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and
the time the Trust actually collects such income or receivables or pays such liabilities are generally treated as ordinary income
or loss. Transactions in foreign currencies, foreign currency-denominated debt securities and certain foreign currency options,
futures contracts, forward contracts and similar instruments (to the extent permitted) may give rise to ordinary income or loss
to the extent such income or loss results from fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency concerned.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust will inform shareholders of the source and tax status
of all distributions promptly after the close of each calendar year.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Selling Common Shareholders will generally recognize capital
gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the Common Shareholder&rsquo;s adjusted tax basis in the shares sold
and the sale proceeds. Any loss on a disposition of shares held for six months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss
to the extent of any capital gain dividends received (or amounts designated as undistributed capital gains) with respect to those
shares. For purposes of determining whether shares have been held for six months or less, the holding period is suspended for any
periods during which the</P>

income includes, among other things, interest, dividends, and gross income and capital gains derived from passive activities and

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Investments in foreign securities may be subject to foreign withholding
taxes or other foreign taxes with respect to income (possibly including, in some cases, capital gains) which may decrease the yield
on such securities. These taxes may be reduced or eliminated under the terms of an applicable tax treaty. Shareholders generally
will not be entitled to claim a credit or deduction with respect to foreign taxes paid by the Trust. In addition, investments in
foreign securities or foreign currencies may increase or accelerate the Trust&rsquo;s recognition of ordinary income and may affect
the timing or amount of the Trust&rsquo;s distributions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> An investor should be aware that, if shares are purchased
shortly before the record date for any taxable dividend (including a capital gain dividend), the purchase price likely will reflect
the value of the dividend and the investor then would receive a taxable distribution likely to reduce the trading value of such
shares, in effect resulting in a taxable return of some of the purchase price. Taxable distributions to individuals and certain
other non-corporate shareholders who have not provided their correct taxpayer identification number and other required certifications,
may be subject to &ldquo;backup&rdquo; U.S. federal income tax withholding. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">An investor should also be aware that the benefits of the reduced

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Certain foreign entities including foreign entities acting as
intermediaries may be subject to a 30% withholding tax on ordinary dividend income paid under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance
Act (&ldquo;FATCA&rdquo;). To avoid withholding, foreign financial institutions subject to FATCA must agree to disclose to the
relevant revenue authorities certain information regarding their direct and indirect U.S. owners and other foreign entities must
certify certain information regarding their direct and indirect U.S. owners to the Trust. In addition, the IRS and the Department
of Treasury have issued proposed regulations providing that these withholding rules will not be applicable to the gross proceeds

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust offers a dividend reinvestment plan (the &ldquo;Plan&rdquo;)
pursuant to which Common Shareholders may elect to have distributions automatically reinvested in Common Shares of the Trust. You
may elect to participate in the Plan by completing the Dividend Reinvestment Plan Application Form. If you do not participate,
you will receive all distributions in cash paid by check mailed directly to you by American Stock Transfer&nbsp;&amp; Trust&nbsp;Company,
LLC (&ldquo;AST&rdquo; or &ldquo;Plan Agent&rdquo;) as dividend paying agent. On the distribution payment date, if the net asset
value per Common Share is equal to or less than the market price per Common Share plus estimated brokerage commissions, then new
Common Shares will be issued. The number of Common Shares shall be determined by the greater of the net asset value per Common
Share or 95% of the market price. Otherwise, Common Shares generally will be purchased on the open market by the Plan Agent. Distributions
subject to income tax (if any) are taxable whether or not shares are reinvested.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust is an unincorporated business trust established under
the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the &ldquo;Declaration of Trust&rdquo;).
The Declaration of Trust provides that the Trustees of the Trust may authorize separate classes of shares of beneficial interest.
The Trustees have authorized an unlimited number of Common Shares. The Trust intends to hold annual meetings of shareholders in
compliance with the requirements of the NYSE.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">COMMON SHARES</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to issue an unlimited
number of full and fractional Common Shares. Each Common Share represents an equal proportionate interest in the assets of the
Trust with each other Common Share in the Trust. Holders of Common Shares will be entitled to the payment of dividends when, as
and if declared by the Board. The 1940 Act or the terms of any borrowings or preferred shares may limit the payment of dividends
to the holders of Common Shares. Each whole Common Share shall be entitled to one vote as to matters on which it is entitled to
vote pursuant to the terms of the Declaration of Trust on file with the SEC. Upon liquidation of the Trust, after paying or adequately
providing for the payment of all liabilities of the Trust and the liquidation preference with respect to any outstanding preferred
shares, and upon receipt of such releases, indemnities and refunding agreements as they deem necessary for their protection, the
Trustees may distribute the remaining assets of the Trust among the holders of the Common Shares. The Declaration of Trust provides
that shareholders are not liable for any liabilities of the Trust and permits inclusion of a clause to that effect in every agreement
entered into by the Trust and in coordination with the Trust's By-Laws indemnifies shareholders against any such liability. Although
shareholders of an unincorporated business trust established under Massachusetts law, in certain limited circumstances, may be
held personally liable for the obligations of the Trust as though they were general partners, the provisions of the Declaration
of Trust and By-Laws described in the foregoing sentence make the likelihood of such personal liability remote.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">While there are any borrowings or preferred shares outstanding,
the Trust may not be permitted to declare any cash dividend or other distribution on its Common Shares, unless at the time of such
declaration, (i) all accrued dividends on preferred shares or accrued interest on borrowings have been paid and (ii) the value
of the Trust's total assets (determined after deducting the amount of such dividend or other distribution), less all liabilities
and indebtedness of the Trust not represented by senior securities, is at least 300% of the aggregate amount of such securities
representing indebtedness and at least 200% of the aggregate amount of securities representing indebtedness plus the aggregate
liquidation value of the outstanding preferred shares (expected to equal the aggregate original purchase price of the outstanding
preferred shares plus redemption premium, if any, together with any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not earned
or declared and on a cumulative basis). In addition to the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Trust may be required to comply with
other asset coverage requirements as a condition of the Trust obtaining a rating of the preferred shares from a Rating Agency.
These requirements may include an asset coverage test more stringent than under the 1940 Act. This limitation on the Trust's ability
to make distributions on its Common Shares could in certain circumstances impair the ability of the Trust to maintain its qualification
for taxation as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes. The Trust intends, however, to the extent possible
to purchase or redeem preferred shares or reduce borrowings from time to time to maintain compliance with such asset coverage requirements
and may pay special dividends to the holders of the preferred shares in certain circumstances in connection with any such impairment
of the Trust's status as a regulated investment company. See &ldquo;Investment Objectives, Policies and Risks,&rdquo; &ldquo;Distributions&rdquo;
and &ldquo;Federal Income Tax Matters.&rdquo; Depending on the timing of any such redemption or repayment, the Trust may be required
to pay a premium in addition to the liquidation preference of the preferred shares to the holders thereof.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust has no present intention of offering additional Common
Shares, except as described herein. Other offerings of its Common Shares, if made, will require approval of the Board. Any additional
offering will not be sold at a price per Common Share below the then current NAV (exclusive of underwriting discounts and commissions)
except in connection with an offering to existing shareholders or with the consent of a majority of the Trust's outstanding Common
Shares. The Common Shares have no preemptive rights.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust will not issue Common Share certificates. Common Share
certificates that have been issued to an investor may be returned at any time.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0"> The Trust currently leverages through borrowings, and has
entered into an Agreement with a bank to borrow up to a limit of $255 million pursuant to a 364-day revolving line of credit. Borrowings
under the Agreement are secured by the assets of the Trust. Interest is generally charged at a rate above LIBOR and is payable
monthly. Under the terms of the Agreement, in effect through March 17, 2020, the Trust pays a facility fee of 0.15% on the borrowing
limit. In connection with the renewal of the Agreement on March 19, 2019, the Trust paid an upfront fee of $127,500, which is being
amortized to interest expense through March 17, 2020. The Trust is required to maintain certain net asset levels during the term
of the Agreement. As of October 31, 2019, the Trust had borrowings outstanding under the Agreement of $218 million at an interest
rate of 2.69%. The carrying amount of the borrowings at October 31, 2019 approximated its fair value. For the year ended October
31, 2019, the average borrowings under the Agreement and the average interest rate (excluding fees) were $223,676,712 and 3.18%,
respectively. In addition, upon the expiration of the term of the Trust&rsquo;s existing credit facility, the lender may not be
willing to extend further credit to the Trust, may reduce amounts available under the facility or may only be willing to lend at
an increased cost to the Trust. If the Trust is not able to extend its credit arrangement, it may be required to liquidate holdings
to repay amounts borrowed under the credit facility. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In addition, the credit facility/program contains covenants that,
among other things, limit the Trust's ability to pay dividends in certain circumstances, incur additional debt, change its fundamental
investment policies and engage in certain transactions, including mergers and consolidations, and may require asset coverage ratios
in addition to those required by the 1940 Act. The Trust is required to pledge its assets and to maintain a portion of its assets
in cash or high-grade securities as a reserve against interest or principal payments and expenses. The credit facility/program
contains customary covenant, negative covenant and default provisions. In addition, any such credit facility/program entered into
in the future may be replaced or refinanced by one or more credit facilities having substantially different terms or by the issuance
of preferred shares or debt securities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">REPURCHASE OF COMMON SHARES AND OTHER DISCOUNT MEASURES</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Because shares of closed-end management investment companies
frequently trade at a discount to their NAVs, the Board has determined that from time to time it may be in the interest of shareholders
for the Trust to take corrective actions. The Board, in consultation with Eaton Vance, will review at least annually the possibility
of open market repurchases and/or tender offers for the Common Shares and will consider such factors as the market price of the
Common Shares, the NAV of the Common Shares, the liquidity of the assets of the Trust, effect on the Trust's expenses, whether
such transactions would impair the Trust's status as a regulated investment company or result in a failure to comply with applicable
asset coverage requirements, general economic conditions and such other events or conditions which may have a material effect on
the Trust's ability to consummate such transactions. There are no assurances that the Board will, in fact, decide to undertake
either of these actions or if undertaken, that such actions will result in the Trust's Common Shares trading at a price which is
equal to or approximates their NAV. In recognition of the possibility that the Common Shares might trade at a discount to NAV and
that any such discount may not be in the interest of shareholders, the Board, in consultation with Eaton Vance, from time to time
may review possible actions to reduce any such discount.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Board of Trustees initially approved a share repurchase program
for the Trust on November 11, 2013. The Board of Trustees of the Trust has authorized the continuation of the share repurchase
program and the Trust is authorized to repurchase up to 10% of its outstanding Common Shares as of the day of the prior calendar
year-end at market prices when shares are trading at a discount to net asset value. The share repurchase program does not obligate
the Trust to purchase a specific amount of shares. Results of the share repurchase program will be disclosed in the Trust&rsquo;s
annual and semiannual reports to shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">PREFERRED SHARES</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Declaration of Trust authorizes the issuance of an unlimited
number of shares of beneficial interest with preference rights, including preferred shares, having a par value of $0.01 per share,
in one or more series, with rights as determined by the Board, by action of the Board without the approval of the Common Shareholders
On January 26, 2004, the Trust issued 3,940 Series A APS, 3,940 Series B APS, 3,940 Series C APS and 3,940 Series D APS, with a
liquidation preference per share of $25,000 plus accumulated but unpaid dividends. As of December 31, 2012, 2,627 Series A APS,
2,627 Series B APS, 2,627 Series C APS and 2,627 Series D APS had been redeemed. The APS have seniority over the Common Shares.
On September 23, 2016, the Trust repurchased 354 Series A APS, 354 Series B APS, 354 Series C APS and 354 Series D APS. On September
14, 2018, the Trust repurchased 220 Series A APS, 196 Series B APS, 221 Series C APS and 167 Series D APS. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Under the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Trust must, immediately
after the issuance of any preferred shares, have an &ldquo;asset coverage&rdquo; of at least 200%. Asset coverage means the ratio
which the value of the total assets of the Trust, less all liability and indebtedness not represented by senior securities (as
defined in the 1940 Act), bears to the aggregate amount of senior securities representing indebtedness of the Trust, if any, plus
the aggregate liquidation preference of the preferred shares. The liquidation value of the preferred shares is expected to equal
to their aggregate original purchase price plus the applicable redemption premium, if any, together with any accrued and unpaid
distributions thereon (on a</P>

of the preferred shares, including their distribution rate, voting rights, liquidation preference and redemption provisions, are
determined by the Board (subject to applicable law and the Trust&rsquo;s Declaration of Trust). The Trust may issue preferred shares
that provide for the periodic redetermination of the distribution rate at relatively short intervals through an auction or remarketing
procedure, although the terms of such preferred shares may also enable the Trust to lengthen such intervals. At times, the distribution
rate on any preferred shares may exceed the Trust&rsquo;s return after expenses on the investment of proceeds from the preferred
shares and the Trust&rsquo;s leverage structure, resulting in a lower rate of return to Common Shareholders than if the preferred
shares were not outstanding.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution
or winding up of the Trust, the terms of any preferred shares may entitle the holders of preferred shares to receive a preferential
liquidating distribution (expected to equal to the original purchase price per share plus the applicable redemption premium, if
any, together with accrued and unpaid distributions, whether or not earned or declared and on a cumulative basis) before any distribution
of assets is made to holders of Common Shares. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distribution to which they are
entitled, the preferred shareholders would not be entitled to any further participation in any distribution of assets by the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Holders of preferred shares, voting as a class, would be entitled
to elect two of the Trust&rsquo;s Trustees. The holders of both the Common Shares and the preferred shares (voting together as
a single class with each share entitling its holder to one vote) would be entitled to elect the remaining Trustees of the Trust.
Under the 1940 Act, if at any time distributions on any preferred shares are unpaid in an amount equal to two full years&rsquo;
distributions thereon, the holders of all outstanding preferred shares, voting as a class, will be allowed to elect a majority
of the Trust&rsquo;s Trustees until all distributions in arrears have been paid or declared and set apart for payment. In addition,
if required by a Rating Agency rating any preferred shares or if the Board determines it to be in the best interests of the Common
Shareholders, issuance of such preferred shares may result in more restrictive provisions than required by the 1940 Act being imposed.
In this regard, holders of any preferred shares may be entitled to elect a majority of the Trust&rsquo;s Board in other circumstances,
for example, if one payment on the preferred shares is in arrears. The differing rights of the holders of preferred and Common
Shares with respect to the election of Trustees do not affect the obligation of all Trustees to take actions they believe to be
consistent with the best interests of the Trust. All such actions must be consistent with (i) the obligations of the Trust with
respect to the holders of preferred shares (which obligations arise primarily from the contractual terms of the preferred shares,
as specified in the Declaration of Trust and By-laws of the Trust) and (ii) the fiduciary duties owed to the Trust, which include
the duties of loyalty and care.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The APS have been rated AAA by Fitch and Aa3 by Moody's. The
Trust currently intends to seek to maintain this rating or an equivalent credit rating on the APS or any preferred shares it issues.
The Rating Agencies which rate the preferred shares and any bank lender in connection with a credit facility or commercial paper
program may also impose specific restrictions as a condition to borrowing. Such restrictions may include asset coverage or portfolio
composition requirements that are more stringent than those imposed on the Trust by the 1940 Act. These covenants or guidelines
do not currently and are not expected to impede Eaton Vance in managing the Trust&rsquo;s portfolio in accordance with its investment
objectives and policies and it is not anticipated that they will so impede Eaton Vance in the future.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE DECLARATION OF TRUST</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">Anti-Takeover Provisions in the Declaration of Trust</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Declaration of Trust includes provisions that could have
the effect of limiting the ability of other entities or persons to acquire control of the Trust or to change the composition of
its Board, and could have the effect of depriving holders of Common Shares of an opportunity to sell their shares at a premium
over prevailing market prices by discouraging a third party from seeking to obtain control of the Trust. These provisions may have
the effect of discouraging attempts to acquire control of the Trust, which attempts could have the effect of increasing the expenses
of the Trust and interfering with the normal operation of the Trust. The Board is divided into three classes, with the term of
one class expiring at each annual meeting of holders of Common Shares and preferred shares. At each annual meeting, one class of
Trustees is elected to a three-year term. This provision could delay for up to two years the replacement of a majority of the Board.
A Trustee may be removed from office only for cause by a written instrument signed by the remaining Trustees or by a vote of the
holders of at least two-thirds of the class of shares of the Trust that elected such Trustee and are entitled to vote on the matter.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In addition, the Declaration of Trust requires the favorable
vote of the holders of at least 75% of the outstanding shares of each class of the Trust, voting as a class, then entitled to vote
to approve, adopt or authorize certain transactions with 5%-or-greater holders (&ldquo;Principal Shareholders&rdquo;) of a class
of shares and their associates, unless the Board shall by resolution have approved a memorandum of understanding with such holders,
in which case normal voting requirements would be in effect. For purposes of these provisions, a Principal Shareholder refers to
any person who, whether directly or indirectly and whether alone or together with its affiliates and associates, beneficially owns
5% or more of the outstanding shares of any class of beneficial interest of the Trust. The transactions subject to these special
approval requirements are: (i) the merger or consolidation of the Trust or any subsidiary of the Trust with or into any Principal
Shareholder; (ii) the issuance of any securities of the Trust to any Principal Shareholder for cash; (iii) the sale, lease or exchange
of all or any substantial part of the assets of the Trust to any Principal Shareholder (except assets having an aggregate fair
market</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Board has determined that provisions with respect to the
Board and the 75% voting requirements described above, which voting requirements are greater than the minimum requirements under

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may be converted to an open-end investment company
at any time if approved by the lesser of (i) two-thirds or more of the Trust&rsquo;s then outstanding Common Shares and preferred
shares, each voting separately as a class, or (ii) more than 50% of the then outstanding Common Shares and preferred shares, voting
separately as a class if such conversion is recommended by at least 75% of the Trustees then in office. If approved in the foregoing
manner, conversion of the Trust could not occur until 90 days after the Common Shareholders&rsquo; meeting at which such conversion
was approved and would also require at least 30 days&rsquo; prior notice to all Common Shareholders. Conversion of the Trust to
an open-end management investment company also would require the redemption of any outstanding preferred shares , including APS,
and could require the repayment of borrowings. The Board believes that the closed-end structure is desirable, given the Trust&rsquo;s
investment objectives and policies. Investors should assume, therefore, that it is unlikely that the Board would vote to convert
the Trust to an open-end management investment company.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0; text-align: center">ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT INFORMATION AND
RESTRICTIONS</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Primary investment strategies are described in the Prospectus.
The following is a description of the various investment practices that may be engaged in, whether as a primary or secondary strategy,
and a summary of certain attendant risks. The Adviser may not buy any of the following instruments or use any of the following
techniques unless it believes that doing so will help to achieve the Trust&#8217;s investment objectives.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">SENIOR LOANS</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Structure
of Senior Loans.</B></FONT> A Senior Loan is typically originated, negotiated and structured by a U.S. or foreign commercial bank,
insurance company, finance company or other financial institution (the &#8220;Agent&#8221;) for a group of loan investors (&#8220;Loan
Investors&#8221;). The Agent typically administers and enforces the Senior Loan on behalf of the other Loan Investors in the syndicate.
In addition, an institution, typically but not always the Agent, holds any collateral on behalf of the Loan Investors.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Senior Loans primarily include senior floating-rate loans to
corporations and secondarily institutionally traded senior floating-rate debt obligations issued by an asset-backed pool, and interests
therein. Loan interests primarily take the form of assignments purchased in the primary or secondary market. Loan interests may
also take the form of participation interests in a Senior Loan. Such loan interests may be acquired from U.S. or foreign commercial
banks, insurance companies, finance companies or other financial institutions who have made loans or are Loan Investors or from
other investors in loan interests.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust typically purchases &#8220;Assignments&#8221; from
the Agent or other Loan Investors. The purchaser of an Assignment typically succeeds to all the rights and obligations under the
Loan Agreement of the assigning Loan Investor and becomes a Loan Investor under the Loan Agreement with the same rights and obligations
as the assigning Loan Investor. Assignments may, however, be arranged through private negotiations between potential assignees
and potential assignors, and the rights and obligations acquired by the purchaser of an Assignment may differ from, and be more
limited than, those held by the assigning Loan Investor.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust also may invest in &#8220;Participations.&#8221; Participations
by the Trust in a Loan Investor&#8217;s portion of a Senior Loan typically will result in the Trust having a contractual relationship
only with such Loan Investor, not with the Borrower. As a result, the Trust may have the right to receive payments of principal,
interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the Loan Investor selling the Participation and only upon receipt by such
Loan Investor of such payments from the Borrower. In connection with purchasing Participations, the Trust generally will have no
right to enforce compliance by the Borrower with the terms of the loan agreement, nor any rights with respect to any funds acquired
by other Loan Investors through set-off against the Borrower and the Trust may not directly benefit from the collateral supporting
the Senior Loan in which it has purchased the Participation. As a result, the Trust may assume the credit risk of both the Borrower
and the Loan Investor selling the Participation. In the event of the insolvency of the Loan Investor selling a Participation, the
Trust may be treated as a general creditor of such Loan Investor. The selling Loan Investors and other persons interpositioned
between such Loan Investors and the Trust with respect to such Participations will likely conduct their principal business activities
in the banking, finance and financial services industries. Persons engaged in such industries may be more susceptible to, among
other things, fluctuations in interest rates, changes in the Federal Open Market Committee&#8217;s monetary policy, governmental
regulations concerning such industries and concerning capital raising activities generally and fluctuations in the financial markets
generally.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust generally will only acquire Participations if the
Loan Investor selling the Participation, and any other persons interpositioned between the Trust and the Loan Investor, at the
time of investment has outstanding debt or deposit obligations rated investment grade (BBB or A-3 or higher by S&amp;P Global Ratings
(&#8220;S&amp;P&#8221;) or Baa or P-3 or higher by Moody&#8217;s Investors Service, Inc. (&#8220;Moody&#8217;s&#8221;) or comparably
rated by another nationally recognized rating agency) or determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. Securities rated
Baa by Moody&#8217;s have speculative characteristics. Long-term debt rated BBB by S&amp;P is regarded by S&amp;P as having adequate
capacity to pay interest and repay principal and debt rated Baa by Moody&#8217;s is regarded by Moody&#8217;s as a medium grade
obligation, i.e., it is neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Commercial paper rated A-3 by S&amp;P indicates that S&amp;P
believes such obligations exhibit adequate protection parameters but that adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances
are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation and issues of
commercial paper rated P-3 by Moody&#8217;s are considered by Moody&#8217;s to have an acceptable ability for repayment of senior
short-term obligations. The effect of industry characteristics and market compositions may be more pronounced. Indebtedness of
companies whose creditworthiness is poor involves substantially greater risks, and may be highly speculative. Some companies may
never pay off their indebtedness, or may pay only a small fraction
of the amount owed. Consequently, when investing in indebtedness of companies with poor credit, the Trust bears a substantial risk
of losing the entire amount invested. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Loan
Collateral.</B></FONT> In order to borrow money pursuant to a Senior Loan, a Borrower will frequently, for the term of the Senior
Loan, pledge collateral, including but not limited to, (i) working capital assets, such as accounts receivable and inventory; (ii)
tangible fixed assets, such as real property, buildings and equipment; (iii) intangible assets, such as trademarks and patent rights
(but excluding goodwill); and (iv) security interests in shares of stock of subsidiaries or affiliates. In the case of Senior Loans
made to non-public companies, the company&#8217;s shareholders or owners may provide collateral in the form of secured guarantees
and/or security interests in assets that they own. In many instances, a Senior Loan may be secured only by stock in the Borrower
or its subsidiaries. Collateral may consist of assets that may not be readily liquidated, and there is no assurance that the liquidation
of such assets would satisfy fully a Borrower&#8217;s obligations under a Senior Loan.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Certain
Fees Paid to the Trust.</B></FONT> In the process of buying, selling and holding Senior Loans, the Trust may receive and/or pay
certain fees. These fees are in addition to interest payments received and may include facility fees, commitment fees, amendment
fees, commissions and prepayment penalty fees. When the Trust buys a Senior Loan it may receive a facility fee and when it sells
a Senior Loan it may pay a facility fee. On an ongoing basis, the Trust may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion
of the underlying line of credit portion of a Senior Loan. In certain circumstances, the Trust may receive a prepayment penalty
fee upon the prepayment of a Senior Loan by a Borrower. Other fees received by the Trust may include covenant waiver fees and covenant
modification fees.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Administration
of Loans.</B></FONT> In a typical Senior Loan, the Agent administers the terms of the Loan Agreement. In such cases, the Agent
is normally responsible for the collection of principal and interest payments from the Borrower and the apportionment of these
payments to the credit of all institutions that are parties to the Loan Agreement. The Trust will generally rely upon the Agent
or an intermediate participant to receive and forward to the Trust its portion of the principal and interest payments on the Senior
Loan. Furthermore, unless under the terms of a Participation Agreement the Trust has direct recourse against the Borrower, the
Trust will rely on the Agent and the other Loan Investors to use appropriate credit remedies against the Borrower. The Agent is
typically responsible for monitoring compliance with covenants contained in the Loan Agreement based upon reports prepared by the
Borrower. The seller of the Senior Loan usually does, but is often not obligated to, notify holders of Senior Loans of any failures
of compliance. The Agent may monitor the value of the collateral and, if the value of the collateral declines, may accelerate the
Senior Loan, may give the Borrower an opportunity to provide additional collateral or may seek other protection for the benefit
of the participants in the Senior Loan. The Agent is compensated by the Borrower for providing these services under a Loan Agreement,
and such compensation may include special fees paid upon structuring and funding the Senior Loan and other fees paid on a continuing
basis. With respect to Senior Loans for which the Agent does not perform such administrative and enforcement functions, the Trust
will perform such tasks on its own behalf, although a collateral bank will typically hold any collateral on behalf of the Trust
and the other Loan Investors pursuant to the applicable Loan Agreement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">A financial institution&#8217;s appointment as Agent may usually
be terminated in the event that it fails to observe the requisite standard of care or becomes insolvent, enters Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (&#8220;FDIC&#8221;) receivership, or, if not FDIC insured, enters into bankruptcy proceedings. A successor
Agent would generally be appointed to replace the terminated Agent, and assets held by the Agent under the Loan Agreement should
remain available to holders of Senior Loans. However, if assets held by the Agent for the benefit of the Trust were determined
to be subject to the claims of the Agent&#8217;s general creditors, the Trust might incur certain costs and delays in realizing
payment on a Senior Loan, or suffer a loss of principal and/or interest. In situations involving intermediate participants, similar
risks may arise.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Prepayments.</B></FONT>
Senior Loans will usually require, in addition to scheduled payments of interest and principal, the prepayment of the Senior Loan
from a portion of free cash flow, as defined above. The degree to which Borrowers prepay Senior Loans, whether as a contractual
requirement or at their election, may be affected by general business conditions, the financial condition of the Borrower and competitive
conditions among Loan Investors, among other factors. As such, prepayments cannot be predicted with accuracy. Upon a prepayment,
either in part or in full, the actual outstanding debt on which the Trust derives interest income will be reduced. However, the
Trust may receive both a prepayment penalty fee from the prepaying Borrower and a facility fee upon the purchase of a new Senior
Loan with the proceeds from the prepayment of the former. Prepayments generally will not materially affect the Trust&#8217;s performance
because the Trust typically is able to reinvest prepayments in other Senior Loans that have similar yields and because receipt
of such fees may mitigate any adverse impact on the Trust&#8217;s yield.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Other
Information Regarding Senior Loans.</B></FONT> From time to time the Adviser and its affiliates may borrow money from various banks
in connection with their business activities. Such banks may also sell interests in Senior Loans to or acquire them from the Trust
or may be intermediate participants with respect to Senior Loans in which the Trust owns interests. Such banks may also act as
Agents for Senior Loans held by the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may acquire interests in Senior Loans that are designed
to provide temporary or &#8220;bridge&#8221; financing to a Borrower pending the sale of identified assets or the arrangement of
longer-term loans or the issuance and sale of debt obligations. The Trust may also invest in Senior Loans of Borrowers that have
obtained bridge loans from other parties. A Borrower&#8217;s use of bridge loans involves a risk that the Borrower may be unable
to locate permanent financing to replace the bridge loan, which may impair the Borrower&#8217;s perceived creditworthiness.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust will be subject to the risk that collateral securing
a loan will decline in value or have no value. Such a decline, whether as a result of bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise, could
cause the Senior Loan to be undercollateralized or unsecured. In most credit agreements, there is no formal requirement to pledge
additional collateral. In addition, the Trust may invest in Senior Loans guaranteed by, or secured by assets of, shareholders or
owners, even if the Senior Loans are not otherwise collateralized by assets of the Borrower; provided, however, that such guarantees
are fully secured. There may be temporary periods when the principal asset held by a Borrower is the stock of a related company,
which may not legally be pledged to secure a Senior Loan. On occasions when such stock cannot be pledged, the Senior Loan will
be temporarily unsecured until the stock can be pledged or is exchanged for or replaced by other assets, which will be pledged
as security for the Senior Loan. However, the Borrower&#8217;s ability to dispose of such securities, other than in connection
with such pledge or replacement, will be strictly limited for the protection of the holders of Senior Loans and, indirectly, Senior
Loans themselves.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">If a Borrower becomes involved in bankruptcy proceedings, a court
may invalidate the Trust&#8217;s security interest in the loan collateral or subordinate the Trust&#8217;s rights under the Senior
Loan to the interests of the Borrower&#8217;s unsecured creditors or cause interest previously paid to be refunded to the Borrower.
If a court required interest to be refunded, it could negatively affect the Trust&#8217;s performance. Such action by a court could
be based, for example, on a &#8220;fraudulent conveyance&#8221; claim to the effect that the Borrower did not receive fair consideration
for granting the security interest in the loan collateral to the Trust. For Senior Loans made in connection with a highly leveraged
transaction, consideration for granting a security interest may be deemed inadequate if the proceeds of the Loan were not received
or retained by the Borrower, but were instead paid to other persons (such as shareholders of the Borrower) in an amount that left
the Borrower insolvent or without sufficient working capital. There are also other events, such as the failure to perfect a security
interest due to faulty documentation or faulty official filings, which could lead to the invalidation of the Trust&#8217;s security
interest in loan collateral. If the Trust&#8217;s security interest in loan collateral is invalidated or the Senior Loan is subordinated
to other debt of a Borrower in bankruptcy or other proceedings, the Trust would have substantially lower recovery, and perhaps
no recovery on the full amount of the principal and interest due on the Senior Loan.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Loans are also subject to the risk that their value will decline
in a rising interest rate environment. This risk is mitigated for floating-rate loans, where the interest rate payable on the loan
resets periodically by reference to a base lending rate. The base lending rate usually is the London Interbank Offered Rate (&#8220;LIBOR&#8221;),
the Federal Reserve federal funds rate, the prime rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders. LIBOR usually is
an average of the interest rates quoted by several designated banks as the rates at which they pay interest to major depositors
in the London interbank market on U.S. dollar-denominated deposits.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Many financial instruments use or may use a floating rate based
on LIBOR, which is the offered rate for short-term Eurodollar deposits between major international banks. On July 27, 2017, the
head of the United Kingdom&#8217;s Financial Conduct Authority announced a desire to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021.
Due to the recency of this announcement, there remains uncertainty regarding the future utilization of LIBOR and the nature of
any replacement rate. As such, the potential effect of a transition away from LIBOR on the Trust or the financial instruments in
which the Trust invests cannot yet be determined.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may acquire warrants and other equity securities as
part of a unit combining a Senior Loan and equity securities of a Borrower or its affiliates. The acquisition of such equity securities
will only be incidental to the Trust&#8217;s purchase of a Senior Loan. The Trust may also acquire equity securities or debt securities
(including non-dollar denominated debt securities) issued in exchange for a Senior Loan or issued in connection with the debt restructuring
or reorganization of a Borrower, if such acquisition, in the judgment of the Adviser, may enhance the value of a Senior Loan or
if such acquisition would otherwise be consistent with the Trust&#8217;s investment policies.</P>

Financing.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in debtor-in-possession financings (commonly called &#8220;DIP financings&#8221;). DIP
financings are arranged when an entity seeks the protections of the bankruptcy court under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
These financings allow the entity to continue its business operations while reorganizing under chapter 11. Such financings are
senior liens on unencumbered security (i.e., security not subject to other creditors&#8217; claims). There is a risk that the entity
will not emerge from chapter 11 and be forced to liquidate its assets under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. In such event, the
Trust&#8217;s only recourse will be against the property securing the DIP financing.</P>

such legislation or regulation could depress the market value of Senior Loans.</P>

Loans.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in secured and unsecured subordinated loans, second lien loans and subordinated bridge loans
(&#8220;Junior Loans&#8221;). Second lien loans are generally second in line in terms of repayment priority. A second lien loan
may have a claim on the same collateral pool as the first lien or it may be secured by a separate set of assets, such as property,
plants, or equipment. Second lien loans generally give investors priority over general unsecured creditors in the event of an asset
sale.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Junior Loans are subject to the same general risks inherent to
any loan investment, including credit risk, market and liquidity risk, and interest rate risk. Due to their lower place in the
Borrower&#8217;s capital structure and possible unsecured status, Junior Loans involve a higher degree of overall risk than Senior
Loans of the same Borrower.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may purchase Junior Loan interests either in the form
of an assignment or a loan participation. As the purchaser of an assignment, the Trust would typically succeed to all of the rights
and obligations of the assigning investor under the loan documents. In contrast, loan participations typically result in the purchaser
having a contractual relationship only with the seller of the loan interest, not with the Borrower. As a result, the loan is not
transferred to the loan participant. The loan participant&#8217;s right to receive payments from the Borrower derives from the
seller of the loan participation. The loan participant will generally have no right to enforce compliance by the Borrower with
the terms of the loan agreement. Lastly, the loan participant&#8217;s voting rights may be limited.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Bridge
Loans.</B></FONT> Bridge loans or bridge facilities are short-term loan arrangements (e.g., 12 to 18 months) typically made by
a Borrower in anticipation of intermediate-term or long-term permanent financing. Most bridge loans are structured as floating-rate
debt with step-up provisions under which the interest rate on the bridge loan rises the longer the loan remains outstanding. In
addition, bridge loans commonly contain a conversion feature that allows the bridge loan investor to convert its loan interest
into senior exchange notes if the loan has not been prepaid in full on or prior to its maturity date. Bridge loans may be subordinate
to other debt and may be secured or unsecured. Like any loan, bridge loans involve credit risk. Bridge loans are generally made
with the expectation that the Borrower will be able to obtain permanent financing in the near future. Any delay in obtaining permanent
financing subjects the bridge loan investor to increased risk. A Borrower&#8217;s use of bridge loans also involves the risk that
the Borrower may be unable to locate permanent financing to replace the bridge loan, which may impair the Borrower&#8217;s perceived
creditworthiness. From time to time, the Trust may make a commitment to participate in a bridge loan facility, obligating itself
to participate in the facility if it funds. In return for this commitment, the Trust receives a fee.</P>

Transition and Associated Risk.</B></FONT> The London Interbank Offered Rate (&#8220;LIBOR&#8221;) is the average offered rate
for various maturities of short-term loans between major international banks who are members of the British Bankers Association
(BBA). LIBOR is the most common benchmark interest rate index used to make adjustments to variable-rate loans. It is used throughout
global banking and financial industries to determine interest rates for a variety of financial instruments (such as debt instruments
and derivatives) and borrowing arrangements, and to determine dividend rates for preferred shares. However, the use of LIBOR started
to come under pressure following manipulation allegations in 2012. Despite increased regulation and other corrective actions since
that time, concerns have arisen regarding its viability as a benchmark, due largely to reduced activity in the financial markets
that it measures.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> In June 2017, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a
group of large U.S. banks working with the Federal Reserve, announced its selection of a new Secured Overnight Financing Rate (&#8220;SOFR&#8221;),
which is intended to be a broad measure of secured overnight U.S. Treasury repo rates, as an appropriate replacement for LIBOR.
The Federal Reserve Bank of New York began publishing the SOFR earlier in 2018, with the expectation that it could be used on a
voluntary basis in new instruments and transactions. Bank working groups and regulators in other countries have suggested other
alternatives for their markets, including the Sterling Overnight Interbank Average Rate (&#8220;SONIA&#8221;) in England. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the &#8220;FCA&#8221;),
the United Kingdom financial regulatory body, announced that after 2021 it will cease its active encouragement of UK banks to provide
the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR. That announcement suggests that LIBOR may cease to be published after that time.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Various financial industry groups have begun planning for
that transition, but there are obstacles to converting certain longer term securities and transactions to a new benchmark. Transition
planning is at an early stage, and neither the effect of the transition process nor its ultimate success can yet be known. The
transition process might lead to increased volatility and illiquidity in markets that currently rely on the LIBOR to determine
interest rates. Although the period from the FCA announcement until the end of 2021 is generally expected to be enough time for
market participants to transition to the use of a different benchmark for new securities and transactions, there remains uncertainty
regarding the future utilization of LIBOR and the specific replacement rate or rates. As such, the potential effect of a transition
away from LIBOR on the Trust or the financial instruments utilized by the Trust cannot yet be determined. The transition process
may involve, among other things, increased volatility or illiquidity in markets for instruments that currently rely on LIBOR. The
transition may also result in a change in (i) the value of certain instruments held by the Trust, (ii) the cost of borrowing or
the dividend rate for preferred shares, or (iii) the effectiveness of related Trust transactions such as hedges, as applicable.
When LIBOR is discontinued, the LIBOR replacement rate may be lower than market expectations, which could have an adverse impact
on the value of preferred and debt-securities with floating or fixed-to-floating rate coupons. Any such effects of the transition
away from LIBOR, as well as other unforeseen effects, could result in losses to the Trust. Since the usefulness of LIBOR as a benchmark
could deteriorate during the transition period, these effects could occur prior to the end of 2021. </P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">NON-INVESTMENT GRADE BONDS</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Investments in Non-Investment Grade Bonds generally provide greater
income and increased opportunity for capital appreciation than investments in higher quality securities, but they also typically
entail greater price volatility and principal and income risk, including the possibility of issuer default and bankruptcy. Non-Investment
Grade Bonds are regarded as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer&#8217;s continuing ability to meet principal and
interest payments. Debt securities in the lowest investment grade category also may be considered to possess some speculative characteristics
by certain rating agencies. In addition, analysis of the creditworthiness of issuers of Non-Investment Grade Bonds may be more
complex than for issuers of higher quality securities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Non-Investment Grade Bonds may be more susceptible to real or
perceived adverse economic and competitive industry conditions than investment grade securities. A projection of an economic downturn
or of a period of rising interest rates, for example, could cause a decline in Non-Investment Grade Bond prices because the advent
of recession could lessen the ability of an issuer to make principal and interest payments on its debt obligations. If an issuer
of Non-Investment Grade Bonds defaults, in addition to risking payment of all or a portion of interest and principal, the Trust
may incur additional expenses to seek recovery. In the case of Non-Investment Grade Bonds structured as zero-coupon, step-up or
payment-in-kind securities, their market prices will normally be affected to a greater extent by interest rate changes, and therefore
tend to be more volatile than securities that pay interest currently and in cash. Eaton Vance seeks to reduce these risks through
diversification, credit analysis and attention to current developments in both the economy and financial markets.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The secondary market on which Non-Investment Grade Bonds are
traded may be less liquid than the market for investment grade securities. Less liquidity in the secondary trading market could
adversely affect the net asset value of the Common Shares. Adverse publicity and investor perceptions, whether or not based on
fundamental analysis, may decrease the values and liquidity of Non-Investment Grade Bonds, especially in a thinly traded market.
When secondary markets for Non-Investment Grade Bonds are less liquid than the market for investment grade securities, it may be
more difficult to value the securities because such valuation may require more research, and elements of judgment may play a greater
role in the valuation because there is no reliable, objective data available. During periods of thin trading in these markets,
the spread between bid and asked prices is likely to increase significantly and the Trust may have greater difficulty selling these
securities. The Trust will be more dependent on Eaton Vance&#8217;s research and analysis when investing in Non-Investment Grade
Bonds. Eaton Vance seeks to minimize the risks of investing in all securities through in-depth credit analysis and attention to
current developments in interest rate and market conditions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">A general description of the ratings of securities by S&amp;P,
Fitch and Moody&#8217;s is set forth in Appendix A to this SAI. Such ratings represent these rating organizations&#8217; opinions
as to the quality of the securities they rate. It should be emphasized, however, that ratings are general and are not absolute
standards of quality. Consequently, debt obligations with the same maturity, coupon and rating may have different yields while
obligations with the same maturity and coupon may have the same yield. For these reasons, the use of credit ratings as the sole
method of evaluating Non-Investment Grade Bonds can involve certain risks. For example, credit ratings evaluate the safety or principal
and interest payments, not the market value risk of Non-Investment Grade Bonds. Also, credit rating agencies may fail to change
credit ratings in a timely fashion to reflect events since the security was last rated. Eaton Vance does not rely solely on credit
ratings when selecting securities for the Trust, and develops its own independent analysis of issuer credit quality.</P>

assessment of the credit characteristics of a particular issue, the Trust is not required to dispose of such security. In determining
whether to retain or sell a downgraded security, Eaton Vance may consider such factors as Eaton Vance&#8217;s assessment of the
credit quality of the issuer of such security, the price at which such security could be sold and the rating, if any, assigned
to such security by other rating agencies. However, analysis of the creditworthiness of issuers of Non-Investment Grade Bonds may
be more complex than for issuers of high quality debt securities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Convertible
Securities.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in convertible securities. A convertible security is a bond, debenture, note, preferred
security, or other security that entitles the holder to acquire common stock or other equity securities of the same or a different
issuer. A convertible security entitles the holder to receive interest paid or accrued or the dividend paid on such security until
the convertible security matures or is redeemed, converted or exchanged. Before conversion, convertible securities have characteristics
similar to nonconvertible income securities in that they ordinarily provide a stable stream of income with generally higher yields
than those of common stocks of the same or similar issuers, but lower yields than comparable nonconvertible securities. The value
of a convertible security is influenced by changes in interest rates, with investment value declining as interest rates increase
and increasing as interest rates decline. The credit standing of the issuer and other factors also may have an effect on the convertible
security&#8217;s investment value. A convertible security ranks senior to common stock in a corporation&#8217;s capital structure
but is usually subordinated to comparable nonconvertible securities. Convertible securities may be purchased for their appreciation
potential when they yield more than the underlying securities at the time of purchase or when they are considered to present less
risk of principal loss than the underlying securities. Generally speaking, the interest or dividend yield of a convertible security
is somewhat less than that of a non-convertible security of similar quality issued by the same company. A convertible security
may be subject to redemption at the option of the issuer at a price established in the convertible security&#8217;s governing instrument.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Convertible securities are issued and traded in a number of securities
markets. Even in cases where a substantial portion of the convertible securities held by the Trust are denominated in U.S. dollars,
the underlying equity securities may be quoted in the currency of the country where the issuer is domiciled. As a result, fluctuations
in the exchange rate between the currency in which the debt security is denominated and the currency in which the share price is
quoted will affect the value of the convertible security. With respect to convertible securities denominated in a currency different
from that of the underlying equity securities, the conversion price may be based on a fixed exchange rate established at the time
the securities are issued, which may increase the effects of currency risk.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Holders of convertible securities generally have a claim on the
assets of the issuer prior to the common stockholders but may be subordinated to other debt securities of the same issuer. Certain
convertible debt securities may provide a put option to the holder, which entitles the holder to cause the securities to be redeemed
by the issuer at a premium over the stated principal amount of the debt securities under certain circumstances. Certain convertible
securities may include loss absorption characteristics that make the securities more equity-like. This is particularly true of
convertible securities issued by companies in the financial services sector.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Synthetic convertible securities may include either cash-settled
convertibles or manufactured convertibles. Cash-settled convertibles are instruments that are created by the issuer and have the
economic characteristics of traditional convertible securities but may not actually permit conversion into the underlying equity
securities in all circumstances. As an example, a private company may issue a cash-settled convertible that is convertible into
common stock only if the company successfully completes a public offering of its common stock prior to maturity and otherwise pays
a cash amount to reflect any equity appreciation. Manufactured convertibles are created by the investment adviser or another party
by combining separate securities that possess one of the two principal characteristics of a convertible security, i.e., fixed-income
(&#8220;fixed-income component&#8221;) or a right to acquire equity securities (&#8220;convertibility component&#8221;). The fixed-income
component is achieved by investing in nonconvertible fixed-income securities, such as nonconvertible bonds, preferred securities
and money market instruments. The convertibility component is achieved by investing in call options, warrants, or other securities
with equity conversion features (&#8220;equity features&#8221;) granting the holder the right to purchase a specified quantity
of the underlying stocks within a specified period of time at a specified price or, in the case of a stock index option, the right
to receive a cash payment based on the value of the underlying stock index. A manufactured convertible differs from traditional
convertible securities in several respects. Unlike a traditional convertible security, which is a single security that has a unitary
market value, a manufactured convertible is comprised of two or more separate securities, each with its own market value. Therefore,
the total &#8220;market value&#8221; of such a manufactured convertible is the sum of the values of its fixed-income component
and its convertibility component. More flexibility is possible in the creation of a manufactured convertible than in the purchase
of a traditional convertible security. Because many corporations have not issued convertible securities, the investment adviser
may combine a fixed-income instrument and an equity feature with respect to the stock of the issuer of the fixed-income instrument
to create a synthetic convertible security otherwise unavailable in</P>

instrument of an issuer with an equity feature with respect to the stock of a different issuer when the investment adviser believes
such a manufactured convertible would better promote the Trust&#8217;s objective than alternative investments. For example, the
investment adviser may combine an equity feature with respect to an issuer&#8217;s stock with a fixed-income security of a different
issuer in the same industry to diversify the Trust&#8217;s credit exposure, or with a U.S. Treasury instrument to create a manufactured
convertible with a higher credit profile than a traditional convertible security issued by that issuer. A manufactured convertible
also is a more flexible investment in that its two components may be purchased separately and, upon purchasing the separate securities,
&#8220;combined&#8221; to create a manufactured convertible. For example, the Trust may purchase a warrant for eventual inclusion
in a manufactured convertible while postponing the purchase of a suitable bond to pair with the warrant pending development of
more favorable market conditions. The value of a manufactured convertible may respond to certain market fluctuations differently
from a traditional convertible security with similar characteristics. For example, in the event the Trust created a manufactured
convertible by combining a short-term U.S. Treasury instrument and a call option on a stock, the manufactured convertible would
be expected to outperform a traditional convertible of similar maturity that is convertible into that stock during periods when
Treasury instruments outperform corporate fixed-income securities and underperform during periods when corporate fixed-income securities
outperform Treasury instruments.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Fixed-Income
Securities.</B></FONT> Fixed-income securities include bonds, preferred, preference and convertible securities, notes, debentures,
asset-backed securities (including those backed by mortgages), loan participations and assignments, equipment lease certificates,
equipment trust certificates and conditional sales contracts. Generally, issuers of fixed-income securities pay investors periodic
interest and repay the amount borrowed either periodically during the life of the security and/or at maturity. Some fixed-income
securities, such as zero coupon bonds, do not pay current interest, but are purchased at a discount from their face values, and
values accumulate over time to face value at maturity. The market prices of fixed-income securities fluctuate depending on such
factors as interest rates, credit quality and maturity. In general, market prices of fixed-income securities decline when interest
rates rise and increase when interest rates fall. Fixed-income securities are subject to risk factors such as sensitivity to interest
rate and real or perceived changes in economic conditions, payment expectations, liquidity and valuation. Fixed-income securities
with longer maturities (for example, over ten years) are more affected by changes in interest rates and provide less price stability
than securities with short-term maturities (for example, one to ten years). Fixed-income securities bear the risk of principal
and interest default by the issuer, which will be greater with higher yielding, lower grade securities. During an economic downturn,
the ability of issuers to service their debt may be impaired. The rating assigned to a fixed-income security by a rating agency
does not reflect assessment of the volatility of the security&#8217;s market value or of the liquidity of an investment in the
securities. Credit ratings are based largely on the issuer&#8217;s historical financial condition and a rating agency&#8217;s investment
analysis at the time of rating, and the rating assigned to any particular security is not necessarily a reflection of the issuer&#8217;s
current financial condition. Credit quality can change from time to time, and recently issued credit ratings may not fully reflect
the actual risks posed by a particular high yield security. In addition to lower rated securities, the Trust may also invest in
higher rated securities. For a description of corporate ratings, see Appendix A.</P>

agreement, the Trust might experience delays in recovering its cash. To the extent that, in the meantime, the value of the securities
the Trust purchased may have decreased, the Trust could experience a loss. Repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days
that the investment adviser believes may not be terminated within seven days at approximately the amount at which the Trust has
valued the agreements are considered illiquid securities. The Trust&#8217;s repurchase agreements will provide that the value of

repurchase agreement, the Trust temporarily transfers possession of a portfolio instrument to another party, such as a bank or
broker-dealer, in return for cash. At the same time, the Trust agrees to repurchase the instrument at an agreed upon time and price,
which reflects an interest payment. The Trust may enter into such agreements when it is able to invest the cash acquired at a rate
higher than the cost of the agreement, which would increase earned income. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">When the Trust enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, any
fluctuations in the market value of either the securities transferred to another party or the securities in which the proceeds
may be invested would affect the market value of the Trust's assets. As a result, such transactions may increase fluctuations in
the market value of the Trust's assets. While there is a risk that large fluctuations in the market value of the Trust's assets
could affect net asset value, this risk is not significantly increased by entering into reverse repurchase agreements, in the opinion
of the Adviser. Because reverse</P>

of borrowing funds, they constitute a form of leverage. The SEC views reverse repurchase transactions as collateralized borrowings
by a fund. Such agreements will be treated as subject to investment restrictions regarding &#8220;borrowings.&#8221; If the Trust
reinvests the proceeds of a reverse repurchase agreement at a rate lower than the cost of the agreement, entering into the agreement

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Zero
Coupon and Deep Discount Bonds and Payment-in-Kind (&#8220;PIK&#8221;) Securities.</B></FONT> Zero coupon bonds are debt obligations
that do not require the periodic payment of interest and are issued at a significant discount from face value. The discount approximates
the total amount of interest the bonds will accrue and compound over the period until maturity at a rate of interest reflecting
the market rate of the security at the time of purchase. The effect of owning debt obligations that do not make current interest
payments is that a fixed yield is earned not only on the original investment but also, in effect, on all discount accretion during
the life of the debt obligation. This implicit reinvestment of earnings at a fixed rate eliminates the risk of being unable to
invest distributions at a rate as high as the implicit yield on the zero coupon bond, but at the same time eliminates the holder&#8217;s
ability to reinvest at higher rates in the future. Deep discount bonds also are issued at a discount from face value, but may make
periodic interest payments at a below market interest rate.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">PIK securities generally carry higher interest rates compared
to bonds that make cash payments of interest to reflect their payment deferral and increased credit risk. PIK interest has the
effect of generating investment income and increasing the incentive fees, if any, payable at a compounding rate. Generally, the
deferral of PIK interest increases the loan to value ratio.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Bonds and preferred stocks that make &#8220;in-kind&#8221; payments
and other securities that do not pay regular income distributions may experience greater volatility in response to interest rate
changes and issuer developments. PIK securities generally involve significantly greater credit risk than coupon loans because the
Trust receives no cash payments until the maturity date or a specified cash payment date. Even if accounting conditions are met
for accruing income payable at a future date under a PIK bond, the issuer could still default when the collection date occurs at
the maturity of or payment date for the PIK bond. PIK bonds may be difficult to value accurately because they involve ongoing judgments
as to the collectability of the deferred payments and the value of any associated collateral. If the issuer of a PIK security defaults,
the Trust may lose its entire investment.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust is required to accrue income from zero coupon and deep
discount bonds and PIK securities on a current basis, even though it does not receive that income currently in cash, and the Trust
is required to distribute that income for each taxable year. Such distributions could reduce the Trust&#8217;s cash position and
require it to sell securities and incur a gain or loss at a time it may not otherwise want to in order to provide the cash necessary
for these distributions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Indexed
Securities.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in securities that fluctuate in value with an index. Such securities generally will
either be issued by the U.S. Government or one of its agencies or instrumentalities or, if privately issued, collateralized by
mortgages that are insured, guaranteed or otherwise backed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The interest
rate or, in some cases, the principal payable at the maturity of an indexed security may change positively or inversely in relation
to one or more interest rates, financial indices, securities prices or other financial indicators (&#8220;reference prices&#8221;).
An indexed security may be leveraged to the extent that the magnitude of any change in the interest rate or principal payable on
an indexed security is a multiple of the change in the reference price. Thus, indexed securities may decline in value due to adverse
market changes in reference prices. Because indexed securities derive their value from another instrument, security or index, they
are considered derivative debt securities, and are subject to different combinations of prepayment, extension, interest rate and/or
other market risks.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Short
Sales.</B></FONT> The Trust may utilize short sales for hedging purposes. A short sale is effected by selling a security which
the Trust does not own, or, if the Trust does own the security, is not to be delivered upon consummation of the sale. The Trust
may engage in short sales &#8220;against the box&#8221; (i.e., short sales of securities the Trust already owns) for hedging purposes.
If the price of the security in the short sale decreases, the Trust will realize a profit to the extent that the short sale price
for the security exceeds the market price. If the price of the security increases, the Trust will realize a loss to the extent
that the market price exceeds the short sale price. Selling securities short runs the risk of losing an amount greater than the
initial investment therein.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Purchasing securities to close out the short position can itself
cause the price of the securities to rise further, thereby exacerbating the loss. Short-selling exposes the Trust to unlimited
risk with respect to that security due to the lack of an upper limit on the price to which an instrument can rise. Although the
Trust reserves the right to utilize short sales, the Adviser is under no obligation to utilize short-sales at all.</P>

Investments.</B></FONT> The Trust may invest in U.S. dollar denominated securities of non-U.S. issuers. Because foreign companies
are not subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards, practices and requirements comparable to those
applicable to U.S. companies, there may be less publicly available information about a foreign company than about a domestic company.
Volume and liquidity in most foreign debt markets is less than in the United States and securities of some foreign companies are
less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. There is generally less government supervision and
regulation of securities exchanges, broker-dealers and listed companies than in the United States. Mail service between the United
States and foreign countries may be slower or less reliable than within the United States, thus increasing the risk of delayed
settlements of portfolio transactions or loss of certificates for portfolio securities. Payment for securities before delivery
may be required. In addition, with respect to certain foreign countries, there is the possibility of expropriation or confiscatory
taxation, political or social instability, or diplomatic developments that could affect investments in those countries. Moreover,
individual foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross national
product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resource self-sufficiency and balance of payments position. Foreign securities
markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities
of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities
of comparable U.S. companies.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Political events in foreign countries may cause market disruptions.
In June 2016, the United Kingdom (&#8220;UK&#8221;) voted in a referendum to leave the European Union (&#8220;EU&#8221;) (&#8220;Brexit&#8221;).
Effective January 31, 2020, the UK ceased to be a member of the EU following a period of impasse within the UK Parliament, and
the holding of an early general election in December 2019 to break the deadlock. The European Parliament and UK Government are
expected to focus attention on the nature of the UK&#8217;s future relationship with the EU during an agreed transitional period.
There is significant market uncertainty regarding Brexit&#8217;s ramifications, and the range and potential implications of possible
political, regulatory, economic, and market outcomes in the UK, EU and beyond are difficult to predict. Brexit may cause greater
market volatility and illiquidity, currency fluctuations, deterioration in economic activity, a decrease in business confidence,
and increased likelihood of a recession in the UK. If one or more additional countries leave the EU or the EU dissolves, the world&#8217;s
securities markets likely will be significantly disrupted. </P>

evidencing ownership of shares of a foreign issuer and are alternatives to purchasing directly the underlying foreign securities
in their national markets and currencies. However, they continue to be subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly
in foreign securities. These risks include foreign exchange risk as well as the political and economic risks of the underlying
issuer&#8217;s country. ADRs, EDRs and GDRs may be sponsored or unsponsored. Unsponsored receipts are established without the participation

Instruments.</B></FONT> Derivative instruments (which are instruments that derive their value from another instrument, security,
index or currency) may be used to enhance income (in the case of written options), to hedge against fluctuations in securities
prices, currency exchange rates, to change the duration of the overall portfolio, or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of
securities or currencies. Such transactions may be in the U.S. or abroad and may include the purchase or sale of forward or futures
contracts securities (such as U.S. Government securities), indices, other financial instruments (such as certificates of deposit,
Eurodollar time deposits and economic indices); options on futures contracts; exchange-traded and over-the-counter options on securities,
indices or currencies; interest rate swaps, credit default swaps, and credit linked notes (described below); and forward foreign
currency exchange contracts. The Trust may enter into derivatives transactions with respect to any security or other instrument
in which it is permitted to invest. The Trust incurs costs in opening and closing derivatives positions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may use derivative instruments and trading strategies,
including the following:</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><I>Options
on Securities Indices and Currencies.</I></FONT> The Trust may engage in transactions in exchange traded and over-the-counter (&#8220;OTC&#8221;)
options. In general, exchange-traded options have standardized exercise prices and expiration dates and require the parties to
post margin against their obligations, and the performance of the parties' obligations in connection with such options is guaranteed
by the exchange or a related clearing corporation. OTC options have more flexible terms negotiated between the buyer and the seller,
but generally do not require the parties to post margin and are subject to greater credit risk. The ability of the Trust to transact
business with any one or any number of counterparties, the lack of any independent evaluation of the counterparties or their financial
capabilities and the absence of a regulated market to facilitate settlement, may increase the potential for losses to the Trust.
OTC options also involve greater liquidity risk. This risk may be increased in times of financial stress if the trading market
for OTC options becomes limited. The Staff of the SEC takes the position that certain purchased OTC options, and assets used as
cover for written OTC options, are illiquid.</P>

Options.</I></FONT> A purchased call option gives the Trust the right to buy, and obligates the seller to sell, the underlying
instrument at the exercise price at any time during the option period. The Trust also may purchase and sell call options on indices.
Index options are similar to options on securities except that, rather than taking or making delivery of securities underlying
the option at a specified price upon exercise, an index option gives the holder the right to receive cash upon exercise of the
option if the level of the index upon which the option is based is greater than the exercise price of the option.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">The Trust also is authorized to write (i.e., sell)
call options and to enter into closing purchase transactions with respect to certain of such options. A covered call option is
an option in which the Trust, in return for a premium, gives another party a right to buy specified securities owned by the Trust
at a specified future date and price set at the time of the contract.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">The principal reason for writing call options is the
attempt to realize, through the receipt of premiums, a greater return than would be realized on the securities alone. By writing
covered call options, the Trust gives up the opportunity, while the option is in effect, to profit from any price increase in the
underlying security above the option exercise price. In addition, the Trust's ability to sell the underlying security will be limited
while the option is in effect unless the Trust enters into a closing purchase transaction. A closing purchase transaction cancels
out the Trust's position as the writer of an option by means of an offsetting purchase of an identical option prior to the expiration
of the option it has written. Covered call options also serve as a partial hedge to the extent of the premium received against
the price of the underlying security declining.</P>

Options.</I></FONT> The Trust is authorized to purchase put options to seek to hedge against a decline in the value of its securities
or to enhance its return. By buying a put option, the Trust acquires a right to sell the underlying securities or instruments at
the exercise price, thus limiting the Trust's risk of loss through a decline in the market value of the securities or instruments
until the put option expires. The amount of any appreciation in the value of the underlying securities or instruments will be partially
offset by the amount of the premium paid for the put option and any related transaction costs. Prior to its expiration, a put option
may be sold in a closing sale transaction and profit or loss from the sale will depend on whether the amount received is more or
less than the premium paid for the put option plus the related transaction costs. A closing sale transaction cancels out the Trust's
position as the purchaser of an option by means of an offsetting sale of an identical option prior to the expiration of the option
it has purchased. The Trust also may purchase uncovered put options.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">The Trust also has authority to write (i.e., sell)
put options. The Trust will receive a premium for writing a put option, which increases the Trust's return. The Trust has the obligation
to buy the securities or instruments at an agreed upon price if the price of the securities or instruments decreases below the
exercise price. There are several risks associated with transactions in options on securities and indexes. For example, there are
significant differences between the securities and options markets that could result in an imperfect correlation between these
markets, causing a given transaction not to achieve its objectives. In addition, a liquid secondary market for particular options,
whether traded OTC or on a national securities exchange may be absent for reasons which include the following: there may be insufficient
trading interest in certain options; restrictions may be imposed by a national securities exchange on opening transactions or closing
transactions or both; trading halts, suspensions or other restrictions may be imposed with respect to particular classes or series
of options or underlying securities; unusual or unforeseen circumstances may interrupt normal operations on a national securities
exchange; the facilities of a national securities exchange or the Options Clearing Corporation (the &#8220;OCC&#8221;) may not
at all times be adequate to handle current trading volume; or one or more national securities exchanges could, for economic or
other reasons, decide or be compelled at some future date to discontinue the trading of options (or a particular class or series
of options), in which event the secondary market on that national securities exchange (or in that class or series of options) would
cease to exist, although outstanding options that had been issued by the OCC as a result of trades on that national securities
exchange would continue to be exercisable in accordance with their terms.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">Options positions are marked to market daily. The
value of options is affected by changes in the value and dividend rates of the securities underlying the option or represented
in the index underlying the option, changes in interest rates, changes in the actual or perceived volatility of the relevant index
or market and the remaining time to the options&#8217; expiration, as well as trading conditions in the options market. The hours
of trading for options may not conform to the hours during which the underlying securities are traded. To the extent that the options
markets close before the markets for the underlying securities, significant price and rate movements can take place in the underlying
markets that would not be reflected concurrently in the options markets.</P>

in futures and options on futures. Futures are standardized, exchange-traded contracts. Futures contracts on securities obligate
a purchaser to take delivery, and a seller to make delivery, of a specific amount of the financial instrument called for in the
contract at a specified future date at a specified price. An index futures contract obligates the purchaser to take, and a seller
to deliver an amount of cash equal to a specific dollar amount times the difference between the value of a specific index at the
close of the last trading day of the contract and the price at which the agreement is made. No physical delivery of the underlying
securities in the index</P>

contracts to close out their positions on or before the expiration date by use of offsetting contract positions, and physical delivery
of financial instruments or delivery of cash, as applicable, is thereby avoided. No price is paid upon entering into a futures
contract. Rather, upon purchasing or selling a futures contract the Trust is required to deposit collateral (&#8220;margin&#8221;)
equal to a percentage (generally less than 10%) of the contract value. Each day thereafter until the futures position is closed,
the Trust will pay additional margin representing any loss experienced as a result of the futures position the prior day or be
entitled to a payment representing any profit experienced as a result of the futures position the prior day. Futures involve substantial
leverage risk. The sale of a futures contract limits the Trust's risk of loss from a decline in the market value of portfolio holdings
correlated with the futures contract prior to the futures contract's expiration date. In the event the market value of the Trust
holdings correlated with the futures contract increases rather than decreases, however, the Trust will realize a loss on the futures
position and a lower return on the Trust holdings than would have been realized without the purchase of the futures contract.</P>

of selling the underlying futures contract in anticipation of a decrease in the market value of its securities. Similarly, the

in foreign currencies may be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes in foreign currency rates and exchange control regulations.
Currency exchange rates can also be affected unpredictably by intervention by U.S. or foreign governments or central banks, or
the failure to intervene, or by currency controls or political developments in the United States or abroad. If the U.S. dollar
rises in value relative to a foreign currency, a security denominated in that foreign currency will be worth less in U.S. dollars.
If the U.S. dollar decreases in value relative to a foreign currency, a security denominated in that foreign currency will be worth
more in U.S. dollars. A devaluation of a currency by a country&#8217;s government or banking authority will have a significant
impact on the value of any investments denominated in that currency. Foreign currency exchange transactions may be conducted on
a spot (i.e., cash) basis at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market or through entering into derivative
currency transactions. Currency transactions are subject to the risk of a number of complex political and economic factors applicable
to the countries issuing the underlying currencies. Furthermore, unlike trading in most other types of instruments, there is no
systematic reporting of last sale information with respect to the foreign currencies underlying the derivative currency transactions.
As a result, available information may not be complete. In an over-the-counter trading environment, there are no daily price fluctuation
limits.</P>

exchange transactions for purposes of hedging either a specific transaction or the Trust position or, to seek to enhance returns.
Proxy hedging is often used when the currency to which the Trust is exposed is difficult to hedge or to hedge against the dollar.
Proxy hedging entails entering into a forward contract to sell a currency whose changes in value are generally considered to be
linked to a currency or currencies in which some or all of the Trust's securities are, or are expected to be, denominated, and
to buy U.S. dollars. Proxy hedging involves some of the same risks and considerations as other transactions with similar instruments.
Currency transactions can result in losses to the Trust if the currency being hedged fluctuates in value to a degree or in a direction
that is not anticipated. In addition, there is the risk that the perceived linkage between various currencies may not be present
or may not be present during the particular time that the Trust is engaged in proxy hedging. The Trust may also cross-hedge currencies
by entering into forward contracts to sell one or more currencies that are expected to decline in value relative to other currencies
to which the Trust has or in which the Trust expects to have portfolio exposure. Some of the forward foreign currency contracts
entered into by the Trust are classified as non-deliverable forwards (&#8220;NDF&#8221;). NDFs are cash-settled, short-term forward
contracts that may be thinly traded or are denominated in non-convertible foreign currency, where the profit or loss at the time
at the settlement date is calculated by taking the difference between the agreed upon exchange rate and the spot rate at the time
of settlement, for an agreed upon notional amount of funds. NDFs are commonly quoted for time periods of one month up to two years,
and are normally quoted and settled in U.S. dollars. They are often used to gain exposure to and/or hedge exposure to foreign currencies
that are not internationally traded.</P>

Futures.</I></FONT> The Trust may also seek to enhance returns or hedge against the decline in the value of a currency through
use of currency futures or options thereon. Currency futures are similar to forward foreign exchange transactions except that futures
are standardized, exchange-traded contracts while forward foreign exchange transactions are traded in the OTC market. Currency
futures involve substantial currency risk, and also involve leverage risk.</P>

the use of currency options. Currency options are similar to options on securities. For example, in consideration for an option
premium the writer of a currency option is obligated to sell (in the case of a call option) or purchase (in the case of a put option)
a specified amount of a specified currency on or before the expiration date for a specified amount of another currency. The Trust
may engage in transactions in options on currencies either on exchanges or OTC markets. Currency options involve substantial currency
risk, and may also involve credit, leverage or liquidity risk.</P>

Factors in Hedging Foreign Currency.</I></FONT> Hedging transactions involving Currency Instruments involve substantial risks,
including correlation risk. Although Currency Instruments will be used with the intention of hedging against adverse currency movements,
transactions in Currency Instruments involve the risk that anticipated currency movements will not be accurately predicted and
that the Trust's hedging strategies will be ineffective. To the extent that the Trust hedges against anticipated currency movements
that do not occur, the Trust may realize losses and decrease its total return as the result of its hedging transactions. Furthermore,
the Trust will only engage in hedging activities from time to time and may not be engaging in hedging activities when movements
in currency exchange rates occur.</P>

Agreements.</I></FONT> Swap agreements are two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors for periods ranging
from a few weeks to more than one year. In a standard &#8220;swap&#8221; transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns
(or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on a particular predetermined reference instrument or instruments, which
can be adjusted for an interest rate factor. The gross returns to be exchanged or &#8220;swapped&#8221; between the parties are
generally calculated with respect to a &#8220;notional amount&#8221; (<I>i.e.</I>, the return on or increase in value of a particular
dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate or in a &#8220;basket&#8221; of securities representing a particular index).
Other types of swap agreements may calculate the obligations of the parties to the agreement on a &#8220;net basis.&#8221; Consequently,
a party&#8217;s current obligations (or rights) under a swap agreement will generally be equal only to the net amount to be paid
or received under the agreement based on the relative values of the positions held by each party to the agreement (the &#8220;net
amount&#8221;).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">Whether the use of swap agreements will be successful
will depend on the investment adviser's ability to predict correctly whether certain types of reference instruments are likely
to produce greater returns than other instruments. Swap agreements may be subject to contractual restrictions on transferability
and termination and they may have terms of greater than seven days. The Trust&#8217;s obligations under a swap agreement will be
accrued daily (offset against any amounts owed to the Trust under the swap). Developments in the swaps market, including government
regulation, could adversely affect the Trust&#8217;s ability to terminate existing swap agreements or to realize amounts to be
received under such agreements, as well as to participate in swap agreements in the future. If there is a default by</P>

the counterparty risk involved in swap agreements, the Trust will only enter into swap agreements with counterparties that meet
certain criteria. Although there can be no assurance that the Trust will be able to do so, the Trust may be able to reduce or eliminate
its exposure under a swap agreement either by assignment or other disposition, or by entering into an offsetting swap agreement
with the same party or another creditworthy party. The Trust may have limited ability to eliminate its exposure under a credit
default swap if the credit of the reference instrument has declined.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">The swaps market was largely unregulated prior to
the enactment of federal legislation known as the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the &#8220;Dodd-Frank
Act&#8221;), which was enacted in 2010 in response to turmoil in the financial markets and other market events. Among other things,
the Dodd-Frank Act sets forth a new regulatory framework for certain OTC derivatives, such as swaps, in which the Trust may invest.
The Dodd-Frank Act requires many swap transactions to be executed on registered exchanges or through swap execution facilities,
cleared through a regulated clearinghouse, and publicly reported. In addition, many market participants are now regulated as swap
dealers or major swap participants, and are, or will be, subject to certain minimum capital and margin requirements and business
conduct standards. The statutory requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act are being implemented primarily through rules and regulations
adopted by the SEC and/or the CFTC. There is a prescribed phase-in period during which most of the mandated rulemaking and regulations
are being implemented, and temporary exemptions from certain rules and regulations have been granted so that current trading practices
will not be unduly disrupted during the transition period.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in"> Currently, central clearing is only required for
certain market participants trading certain instruments, although central clearing for additional instruments is expected to be
implemented by the CFTC until the majority of the swaps market is ultimately subject to central clearing. In addition, uncleared
OTC swaps are subject to regulatory collateral requirements that may adversely affect the Trust&#8217;s ability to enter into swaps
in the OTC market. These developments may cause the Trust to terminate new or existing swap agreements or to realize amounts to
be received under such instruments at an inopportune time. Until the mandated rulemaking and regulations are implemented completely,
it will not be possible to determine the complete impact of the Dodd-Frank Act and related regulations on the Trust, and the establishment
of a centralized exchange or market for swap transactions may not result in swaps being easier to value or trade. However, it is
expected that swap dealers, major market participants, and swap counterparties will experience other new and/or additional regulations,
requirements, compliance burdens, and associated costs. The Dodd-Frank Act and rules promulgated thereunder may exert a negative
effect on the Trust&#8217;s ability to meet its investment objective, either through limits or requirements imposed on the Trust
or its counterparties. The swap market could be disrupted or limited as a result of this legislation, and the new requirements
may increase the cost of the Trust&#8217;s investments and of doing business, which could adversely affect the ability of the Trust
to buy or sell OTC derivatives. </P>

the contract, provided that no credit event, such as a default, on a reference instrument has occurred. If a credit event occurs,
the seller generally must pay the buyer the &#8220;par value&#8221; (full notional value) of the reference instrument in exchange
for an equal face amount of the reference instrument described in the swap, or the seller may be required to deliver the related
net cash amount, if the swap is cash settled. If the Trust is a buyer and no credit event occurs, the Trust may recover nothing
if the swap is held through its termination date. As a seller, the Trust generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate
of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. As the seller, the Trust would effectively add
leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Trust would be subject to investment exposure on the
notional amount of the swap. The determination of a credit event under the swap agreement will depend on the terms of the agreement

Rate Swaps, Caps and Floors.</I></FONT> Interest rate swaps are OTC contracts in which each party agrees to make a periodic interest
payment based on an index or the value of an asset in return for a periodic payment from the other party based on a different index
or asset. The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser, to the extent that a specified index falls below a predetermined
interest rate, to receive payments of interest on a notional principal amount from the party selling such interest rate floor.
The purchase of an interest rate cap entitles the purchaser, to the extent that a specified index rises above a predetermined interest
rate, to receive payments of interest on a notional principal amount from the party selling such interest rate cap. The Trust usually
will enter into interest rate swap transactions on a net basis (i.e., the two payment streams are netted out, with the Trust receiving
or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments). The net amount of the excess, if any, of the Trust&#8217;s
obligations over its entitlements with respect to each interest rate swap will be accrued on a daily basis. If the interest rate
swap transaction is entered into on other than a net basis, the full amount of the Trust&#8217;s obligations will be accrued on

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">The regulation of derivatives has undergone substantial
change in recent years and such change may continue. In particular, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
(the &#8220;Dodd-Frank Act&#8221;), and regulations proposed to be promulgated thereunder require many derivatives to be cleared
and traded on an exchange, expand entity registration requirements, impose business conduct requirements on dealers that enter
into swaps with a pension plan, endowment, retirement plan or government entity, and require banks to move some derivatives trading
units to a nonguaranteed affiliate separate from the deposit-taking bank or divest them altogether. Although the CFTC has released
final rules relating to clearing, reporting, recordkeeping, required margin and registration requirements under the legislation,
many of the provisions are subject to further final rule making, and thus its ultimate impact remains unclear. See also &#8220;Swap
Agreements&#8221; herein. New regulations and the implementation of existing regulations could, among other things, restrict the
Trust&#8217;s ability to engage in derivatives transactions (for example, by making certain types of derivatives transactions no
longer available to the Trust) and/or increase the costs of such derivatives transactions (for example, by increasing margin or
capital requirements), and the Trust may be unable to fully execute its investment strategies as a result.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">The SEC may propose regulations that, if adopted,
could significantly change the manner in which the Trust must segregate assets to cover its future obligations. A proposed regulation
may restrict the Trust&#8217;s ability to enter into derivative transactions for speculative or hedging purposes and may require
the Trust&#8217;s Board to adopt a derivative risk management and governance framework. These regulations could also limit the
ability of the Trust to use these instruments as part of its investment management strategy, increase the costs of using these
instruments or make them less effective. Limits or restrictions applicable to the counterparties with which the Trust engages in
derivative transactions also could prevent the Trust from using these instruments or affect the pricing or other factors relating
to these instruments, or may change the availability of certain investments.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">Regulatory bodies outside the U.S. have also passed,
proposed, or may propose in the future, legislation similar to Dodd-Frank Act or other legislation that could increase the costs
of participating in, or otherwise adversely impact the liquidity of, participating in the commodities markets.&nbsp; In addition,
regulations adopted by global prudential regulators that are now in effect require certain prudentially regulated entities and
certain of their affiliates and subsidiaries (including swap dealers) to include in their derivatives contracts, terms that delay
or restrict the rights of counterparties (such as the Trust) to terminate such contracts, foreclose upon collateral, exercise other
default rights or restrict transfers of credit support in the event that the prudentially regulated entity and/or its affiliates
are subject to certain types of resolution or insolvency proceedings. Similar regulations and laws have been adopted in non-U.S.
jurisdictions that may apply to the Trust&#8217;s counterparties located in those jurisdictions. It is possible that these requirements,
as well as potential additional related government regulation, could adversely affect the Trust&#8217;s ability to terminate existing
derivatives contracts, exercise default rights or satisfy obligations owed to it with collateral received under such contracts.</P>

loaned securities. The Trust may receive loan fees in connection with loans that are collateralized by securities or on loans of
securities for which there is special demand. The Trust may also seek to earn income on securities loans by reinvesting cash collateral
in mortgage-backed securities (&#8220;MBS&#8221;) or other securities consistent with its investment objectives and policies, seeking
to invest at rates that are higher than the &#8220;rebate&#8221; rate that it normally will pay to the borrower with respect to
such cash collateral. Any such reinvestment will be subject to the investment policies, restrictions and risk considerations described
in the Prospectus and in this SAI.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Senior Loans and other securities may result in delays in recovering,
or a failure of the borrower to return, the loaned securities. The defaulting borrower ordinarily would be liable to the Trust
for any losses resulting from such delays or failures, and the collateral provided in connection with the loan normally would also
be available for that purpose. Securities loans normally may be terminated by either the Trust or the borrower at any time. Upon
termination and the return of the loaned securities, the Trust would be required to return the related cash or securities collateral
to the borrower and it may be required to liquidate longer term portfolio securities in order to do so. To the extent that such
securities have decreased in value, this may result in the Trust realizing a loss at a time when it would not otherwise do so.
The Trust also may incur losses if it is unable to reinvest cash collateral at rates higher than applicable rebate rates paid to
borrowers and related administrative costs. These risks are substantially the same as those incurred through investment leverage,

is responsible for the overall management and supervision of the affairs of the Trust. The Board members and officers of the Trust
are listed below. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the last
five years. Each Trustee holds office until the annual meeting for the year in which his or her term expires and until his or her
successor is elected and qualified, subject to a prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal. Under the terms
of the Trust's current Trustee retirement policy, an Independent Trustee must retire and resign as a Trustee on the earlier of:
(i) the first day of July following his or her 74th birthday; or (ii), with limited exception, December 31st of the 20th year in
which he or she has served as a Trustee. However, if such retirement and resignation would cause the Trust to be out of compliance
with Section 16 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the &#8220;1940 Act&#8221;) or any other regulations or guidance
of the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#8220;SEC&#8221;), then such retirement and resignation will not become effective until
such time as action has been taken for the Trust to be in compliance therewith. The &#8220;noninterested Trustees&#8221; consist
of those Trustees who are not &#8220;interested persons&#8221; of the Trust, as that term is defined under the 1940 Act. The business
address of each Board member and officer is Two International Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02110. As used in this SAI, &#8220;EVC&#8221;
refers to Eaton Vance Corp., &#8220;EV&#8221; refers to Eaton Vance, Inc., &#8220;BMR&#8221; refers to Boston Management and Research
and &#8220;EVD&#8221; refers to Eaton Vance Distributors Inc. EVC and EV are the corporate parent and trustee, respectively, of
Eaton Vance and BMR. EVD is a wholly-owned subsidiary of EVC. Each officer affiliated with Eaton Vance may hold a position with

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Board has general oversight responsibility with respect to
the business and affairs of the Trust. The Board has engaged an investment adviser and (if applicable) a sub-adviser(s) (collectively
the &#8220;adviser&#8221;) to manage the&nbsp;Trust and an administrator to administer the&nbsp;Trust and is responsible for overseeing
such adviser and administrator and other service providers to the Trust. The Board is currently composed of eleven Trustees, including
ten Trustees who are not &#8220;interested persons&#8221; of the&nbsp;Trust, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (each a &#8220;noninterested
Trustee&#8221;). In addition to six regularly scheduled meetings per year, the Board holds special meetings or informal conference
calls to discuss specific matters that may require action prior to the next regular meeting. As discussed below, the Board has
established six committees to assist the Board in performing its oversight responsibilities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Board has appointed a noninterested Trustee to serve in the
role of Chairperson. The Chairperson&#8217;s primary role is to participate in the preparation of the agenda for meetings of the
Board and the identification of information to be presented to the Board with respect to matters to be acted upon by the Board.
The Chairperson also presides at all meetings of the Board and acts as a liaison with service providers, officers, attorneys, and
other Board members generally between meetings. The Chairperson may perform such other functions as may be requested by the Board
from time to time. In</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">addition, the Board may appoint a noninterested Trustee to serve
in the role of Vice-Chairperson. The Vice-Chairperson has the power and authority to perform any or all of the duties and responsibilities
of the Chairperson in the absence of the Chairperson and/or as requested by the Chairperson. Except for any duties specified herein
or pursuant to the Trust&#8217;s Declaration of Trust or By-laws, the designation of Chairperson or Vice-Chairperson does not impose
on such noninterested Trustee any duties, obligations or liability that is greater than the duties, obligations or liability imposed
on such person as a member of the Board, generally.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust is subject to a number of risks, including, among others,
investment, compliance, operational, and valuation risks. Risk oversight is part of the Board&#8217;s general oversight of the
Trust and is addressed as part of various activities of the Board and its Committees. As part of its oversight of the Trust, the
Board directly, or through a Committee, relies on and reviews reports from, among others, Trust management, the adviser, the administrator,
the principal underwriter, the Chief Compliance Officer (the &#8220;CCO&#8221;), and other Trust service providers responsible
for day-to-day oversight of Trust investments, operations and compliance to assist the Board in identifying and understanding the
nature and extent of risks and determining whether, and to what extent, such risks can or should be mitigated. The Board also interacts
with the CCO and with senior personnel of the adviser, administrator, principal underwriter and other Trust service providers and
provides input on risk management issues during meetings of the Board and its Committees. Each of the adviser, administrator, principal
underwriter and the other Trust service providers has its own, independent interest and responsibilities in risk management, and
its policies and methods for carrying out risk management functions will depend, in part, on its individual priorities, resources
and controls. It is not possible to identify all of the risks that may affect the&nbsp;Trust or to develop processes and controls
to eliminate or mitigate their occurrence or effects. Moreover, it is necessary to bear certain risks (such as investment-related
risks) to achieve the&nbsp;Trust&#8217;s goals.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Board, with the assistance of management and with input from
the Board's various committees, reviews investment policies and risks in connection with its review of Trust performance. The Board
has appointed a Trust CCO who oversees the implementation and testing of the Trust compliance program and reports to the Board
regarding compliance matters for the Trust and its principal service providers. In addition, as part of the Board&#8217;s periodic
review of the advisory, subadvisory (if applicable), distribution and other service provider agreements, the Board may consider
risk management aspects of their operations and the functions for which they are responsible. With respect to valuation, the Board
approves and periodically reviews valuation policies and procedures applicable to valuing the&nbsp;Trust&#8217;s shares. The administrator,
the investment adviser and the sub-adviser (if applicable) are responsible for the implementation and day-to-day administration
of these valuation policies and procedures and provides reports to the Audit Committee of the Board and the Board regarding these
and related matters. In addition, the Audit Committee of the Board or the Board receives reports periodically from the independent
public accounting firm for the Trust regarding tests performed by such firm on the valuation of all securities, as well as with
respect to other risks associated with mutual funds. Reports received from service providers, legal counsel and the independent
public accounting firm assist the Board in performing its oversight function.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust&#8217;s Declaration of Trust&nbsp;does not set forth
any specific qualifications to serve as a Trustee. The Charter of the Governance Committee also does not set forth any specific
qualifications, but does set forth certain factors that the Committee may take into account in considering noninterested Trustee
candidates. In general, no one factor is decisive in the selection of an individual to join the Board. Among the factors the Board
considers when concluding that an individual should serve on the Board are the following: (i) knowledge in matters relating to
the mutual fund industry; (ii) experience as a director or senior officer of public companies; (iii) educational background; (iv)
reputation for high ethical standards and professional integrity; (v) specific financial, technical or other expertise, and the
extent to which such expertise would complement the Board members&#8217; existing mix of skills, core competencies and qualifications;
(vi) perceived ability to contribute to the ongoing functions of the Board, including the ability and commitment to attend meetings
regularly and work collaboratively with other members of the Board; (vii) the ability to qualify as a noninterested Trustee for
purposes of the 1940 Act and any other actual or potential conflicts of interest involving the individual and the Trust; and (viii)
such other factors as the Board determines to be relevant in light of the existing composition of the Board.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Among the attributes or skills common to all Board members are
their ability to review critically, evaluate, question and discuss information provided to them, to interact effectively with the
other members of the Board, management, sub-advisers, other service providers, counsel and independent registered public accounting
firms, and to exercise effective and independent business judgment in the performance of their duties as members of the Board.
Each Board member&#8217;s ability to perform his or her duties effectively has been attained through the Board member&#8217;s business,
consulting, public service and/or academic positions and through experience from service as a member of the Boards of the Eaton
Vance family of funds (&#8220;Eaton Vance Fund Boards&#8221;) (and/or in other capacities, including for any predecessor funds),
public companies, or non-profit entities or other organizations as set forth below. Each Board member&#8217;s ability to perform
his or her duties effectively also has been enhanced by his or her educational background, professional training, and/or other
life experiences.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> It is possible that conflicts of interest may arise in connection
with a portfolio manager&#8217;s management of the Trust&#8217;s investments on the one hand and the investments of other accounts
for which a portfolio manager is responsible on the other. For example, a portfolio manager may have conflicts of interest in allocating
management time, resources and investment opportunities among the Trust and other accounts he or she advises. In addition, due
to differences in the investment strategies or restrictions between the Trust and the other accounts, the portfolio manager may
take action with respect to another account that differs from the action taken with respect to the Trust. In some cases, another
account managed by a portfolio manager may compensate the investment adviser based on the performance of the securities held by
that account. The existence of such a performance based fee may create additional conflicts of interest for the portfolio manager
in the allocation of management time, resources and investment opportunities. Whenever conflicts of interest arise, the portfolio
manager will endeavor to exercise his or her discretion in a manner that he or she believes is equitable to all interested persons.
The Adviser has adopted several policies and procedures designed to address these potential conflicts including a code of ethics
and policies that govern the investment adviser's trading practices, including among other things the aggregation and allocation
of trades among clients, brokerage allocations, cross trades and best execution. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><I>Compensation
Structure for Eaton Vance. </I></FONT> Compensation of the Adviser's portfolio managers and other investment professionals has
the following primary components: (1) a base salary, (2) an annual cash bonus, (3) annual non-cash compensation consisting of options
to purchase shares of EVC nonvoting common stock and/or restricted shares of EVC nonvoting common stock that generally are subject
to a vesting schedule, and (4) (for equity portfolio managers) a Deferred Alpha Incentive Plan, which pays a deferred cash award
tied to future excess returns in certain equity strategy portfolios. The Adviser&#8217;s investment professionals also receive
certain retirement, insurance and other benefits that are broadly available to the Adviser&#8217;s employees. Compensation of the
Adviser&#8217;s investment professionals is reviewed primarily on an annual basis. Cash bonuses, stock-based compensation awards,
and adjustments in base salary are typically paid or put into effect at or shortly after the October 31st fiscal year end of EVC. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> <FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><I>Method
to Determine Compensation.</I></FONT> The Adviser compensates its portfolio managers based primarily on the scale and complexity
of their portfolio responsibilities and the total return performance of managed funds and accounts versus the benchmark(s) stated
in the prospectus, as well as an appropriate peer group (as described below). In addition to rankings within peer groups of funds
on the basis of absolute performance, consideration may also be given to relative risk-adjusted performance. Risk-adjusted performance
measures include, but are not limited to, Sharpe ratio, which uses standard deviation and excess return to determine reward per
unit of risk. Performance is normally based on periods ending on the September 30th preceding fiscal year end. Fund performance
is normally evaluated primarily versus peer groups of funds as determined by Lipper Inc. and/or Morningstar, Inc. When a fund&#8217;s
peer group as determined by Lipper or Morningstar is deemed by the Adviser&#8217;s management not to provide a fair comparison,
performance may instead be evaluated primarily against a custom peer group or market index. In evaluating the performance of a
fund and its manager, primary emphasis is normally placed on three-year performance, with secondary consideration of performance
over longer and shorter periods. For funds that are tax-managed or otherwise have an objective of after-tax returns, performance
is measured net of taxes. For other funds, performance is evaluated on a pre-tax basis. For funds with an investment objective
other than total return (such as current income), consideration will also be given to the fund&#8217;s success in achieving its
objective. For managers responsible for multiple funds and accounts, investment performance is evaluated on an aggregate basis,
based on averages or weighted averages among managed funds and accounts. Funds and accounts that have performance-based advisory
fees are not accorded disproportionate weightings in measuring aggregate portfolio manager performance. Pursuant to the Deferred
Alpha Incentive Plan, a portion of the compensation payable to equity portfolio managers and investment professionals will be determined
based on the ability of one or more accounts managed by such manager, that are not advised by CRM, to achieve a specified target
average annual gross return over a three year period in excess of the account benchmark. The cash award to be payable at the end
of the three year term will be established at the inception of the term and will be adjusted positively or negatively to the extent
that the average annual gross return varies from the specified target return. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The compensation of portfolio managers with other job responsibilities
(such as heading an investment group or providing analytical support to other portfolios) will include consideration of the scope
of such responsibilities and the managers&#8217; performance in meeting them.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Adviser seeks to compensate portfolio managers commensurate
with their responsibilities and performance, and competitive with other firms within the investment management industry. The Adviser
participates in investment-industry compensation surveys and utilizes survey data as a factor in determining salary, bonus and
stock-based compensation levels for portfolio managers and other investment professionals. Salaries, bonuses and stock-based compensation
are also influenced by the operating performance of the Adviser and its parent company. The overall annual cash bonus pool is generally
based on a substantially fixed percentage of pre-bonus adjusted operating income. While the salaries of the Adviser&#8217;s portfolio
managers are comparatively fixed, cash bonuses and stock-based compensation may fluctuate significantly from year to year, based
on changes in manager performance and other factors as described herein. For a high performing portfolio manager, cash bonuses and stock-based
compensation may represent a substantial portion of total compensation.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Investments which are unable to be valued in accordance with
the foregoing methodologies are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the members
of the Board. Such methods may include consideration of relevant factors, including but not limited to (i) the type of security
and the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security&#8217;s disposition; (ii) the price and extent of public trading
in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities; (iii) quotations or relevant information obtained from
broker-dealers or other market participants; (iv) information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock
exchange (for exchange-traded securities); (v) an analysis of the company&#8217;s or entity&#8217;s financial statements; (vi)
an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold; (vii) any
transaction involving the issuer of such securities; and (viii) any other factors deemed relevant by the investment adviser. For
purposes of fair valuation, the portfolio managers of one Eaton Vance fund that invests in Senior and Junior Loans may not possess
the same information about a Senior or Junior Loan as the portfolio managers of another Eaton Vance fund. As such, at times the
fair value of a Loan determined by certain Eaton Vance portfolio managers may vary from the fair value of the same Loan determined
by other portfolio managers. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash
Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance. Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities
utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially
valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium.
If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same
manner as debt obligations described above.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust will acquire Senior Loans from major international
banks, selected domestic regional banks, insurance companies, finance companies and other financial institutions. In selecting
financial institutions from which Senior Loans may be acquired, the investment adviser will consider, among other factors, the
financial strength, professional ability, level of service and research capability of the institution. While these financial institutions
are generally not required to repurchase Senior Loans which they have sold, they may act as principal or on an agency basis in
connection with their sale by the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Decisions concerning the execution of portfolio security transactions,
including the selection of the market and the broker-dealer firm, are made by the investment adviser. The Trust is responsible
for the expenses associated with its portfolio transactions. The investment adviser is also responsible for the execution of transactions
for all other accounts managed by it. The investment adviser places the portfolio security transactions for execution with one
or more broker-dealer firms. The investment adviser uses its best efforts to obtain execution of portfolio security transactions
at prices which in the investment adviser&#8217;s judgment are advantageous to the client and at a reasonably competitive spread
or (when a disclosed commission is being charged) at reasonably competitive commission rates. In seeking such execution, the investment
adviser will use its best judgment in evaluating the terms of a transaction, and will give consideration to various relevant factors,
which may include, without limitation, the full range and quality of the broker-dealer firm&#8217;s services, responsiveness of
the firm to the investment adviser, the size and type of the transaction, the nature and character of the market for the security,
the confidentiality, speed and certainty of effective execution required for the transaction, the general execution and operational
capabilities of the broker-dealer firm, the reputation, reliability, experience and financial condition of the firm, the value
and quality of the services rendered by the firm in this and other transactions, and the amount of the spread or commission, if
any. In addition, the investment adviser may consider the receipt of Research Services (as defined below), provided it does not
compromise the investment adviser&#8217;s obligation to seek best overall execution for the&nbsp;Trust and is otherwise in compliance
with applicable law. The investment adviser may engage in portfolio brokerage transactions with a broker-dealer
firm that sells shares of Eaton Vance funds, provided such transactions are not directed to that firm as compensation for the promotion
or sale of such shares.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Transactions on stock exchanges and other agency transactions
involve the payment of negotiated brokerage commissions. Such commissions vary among different broker-dealer firms, and a particular
broker-dealer may charge different commissions according to such factors as the difficulty and size of the transaction and the
volume of business done with such broker-dealer. Transactions in foreign securities often involve the payment of brokerage commissions,
which may be higher than those in the United States. There is generally no stated commission in the case of securities traded in
the over-the-counter markets including transactions in fixed-income securities which are generally purchased and sold on a net
basis (i.e., without commission) through broker-dealers and banks acting for their own account rather than as brokers. Such firms
attempt to profit from such transactions by buying at the bid price and selling at the higher asked price of the market for such
obligations, and the difference between the bid and asked price is customarily referred to as the spread. Fixed-income transactions
may also be transacted directly with the issuer of the obligations. In an underwritten offering the price paid often includes a
disclosed fixed commission or discount retained by the underwriter or dealer. Although spreads or commissions paid on portfolio
security transactions will, in the judgment of the investment adviser, be reasonable in relation to the value of the services provided,
commissions exceeding those which another firm might charge may be paid to broker-dealers who were selected to execute transactions
on behalf of the investment adviser&#8217;s clients in part for providing brokerage and research services to the investment adviser
as permitted by applicable law.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Pursuant to the safe harbor provided in Section 28(e) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (&#8220;Section 28(e)&#8221;) and to the extent permitted by other applicable law,
a broker or dealer who executes a portfolio transaction on behalf of the investment adviser client may receive a commission that
is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if the investment
adviser determines in good faith that such compensation was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services
provided. This determination may be made on the basis of either that particular transaction or on the basis of the overall responsibility
which the investment adviser and its affiliates have for accounts over which they exercise investment discretion. &#8220;Research
Services&#8221; as used herein includes any and all brokerage and research services to the extent permitted by Section 28(e) and
other applicable law. Generally, Research Services may include, but are not limited to, such matters as research, analytical and
quotation services, data, information and other services products and materials which assist the investment adviser in the performance
of its investment responsibilities. More specifically, Research Services may include general economic, political, business and
market information, industry and company reviews, evaluations of securities and portfolio strategies and transactions, technical
analysis of various aspects of the securities markets, recommendations as to the purchase and sale of securities and other portfolio
transactions, certain financial, industry and trade publications, certain news and information services, and certain research oriented
computer software, data bases and services. Any particular Research Service obtained through a broker-dealer may be used by the
investment adviser in connection with client accounts other than those accounts which pay commissions to such broker-dealer, to
the extent permitted by applicable law. Any such Research Service may be broadly useful and of value to the investment adviser
in rendering investment advisory services to all or a significant portion of its clients, or may be relevant and useful for the
management of only one client&#8217;s account or of a few clients&#8217; accounts, or may be useful for the management of merely
a segment of certain clients&#8217; accounts, regardless of whether any such account or accounts paid commissions to the broker-dealer
through which such Research Service was obtained. The investment adviser evaluates the nature and quality of the various Research
Services obtained through broker-dealer firms and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, may attempt to allocate sufficient
portfolio security transactions to such firms to ensure the continued receipt of Research Services which the investment adviser
believes are useful or of value to it in rendering investment advisory services to its clients. The investment adviser may also
receive brokerage and Research Services from underwriters and dealers in fixed-price offerings, when permitted under applicable
law.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Research Services provided by (and produced by) broker-dealers
that execute portfolio transactions or from affiliates of executing broker-dealers are referred to as &#8220;Proprietary Research.&#8221;
Except for trades executed in jurisdictions where such consideration is not permissible, the investment adviser may and does consider
the receipt of Proprietary Research Services as a factor in selecting broker dealers to execute client portfolio transactions,
provided it does not compromise the investment adviser&#8217;s obligation to seek best overall execution. In jurisdictions where
permissible, the investment adviser also may consider the receipt of Research Services under so called &#8220;client commission
arrangements&#8221; or &#8220;commission sharing arrangements&#8221; (both referred to as &#8220;CCAs&#8221;) as a factor in selecting
broker dealers to execute transactions, provided it does not compromise the investment adviser&#8217;s obligation to seek best
overall execution. Under a CCA arrangement, the investment adviser may cause client accounts to effect transactions through a broker-dealer
and request that the broker-dealer allocate a portion of the commissions paid on those transactions to a pool of commission credits
that are paid to other firms that provide Research Services to the investment adviser. Under a CCA, the broker-</P>

credits from transactions executed through a particular broker-dealer to periodically pay for Research Services obtained from and

offer the potential to optimize the execution of trades and the acquisition of a variety of high quality Research Services that
the investment adviser might not be provided access to absent CCAs. The investment adviser will only enter into and utilize CCAs
to the extent permitted by Section 28(e) and other applicable law.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Fund trades executed by an affiliate of the investment adviser
licensed in the United Kingdom may implicate laws of the United Kingdom, including rules of the UK Financial Conduct Authority,
which govern client trading commissions and Research Services (&#8220;UK Law&#8221;). Broadly speaking, under UK Law the investment
adviser may not accept any good or service when executing an order unless that good or service either is directly related to the
execution of trades on behalf of its clients/customers or amounts to the provision of substantive research (as defined under UK
Law). These requirements may also apply with respect to orders in connection with which the investment adviser receives goods and
services under a CCA or other bundled brokerage arrangement. Fund trades may also implicate UK Law requiring the investment adviser
to direct any research portion of a brokerage commission to an account controlled by the investment adviser.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The investment companies sponsored by the investment adviser
or its affiliates also may allocate brokerage commissions to acquire information relating to the performance, fees and expenses
of such companies and other investment companies, which information is used by the members of the Board of such companies to fulfill
their responsibility to oversee the quality of the services provided to various entities, including the investment adviser, to
such companies. Such companies may also pay cash for such information.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Securities considered as investments for the Trust may also be
appropriate for other investment accounts managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates. Whenever decisions are made to buy
or sell securities by the Trust and one or more of such other accounts simultaneously, the investment adviser will allocate the
security transactions (including &#8220;new&#8221; issues) in a manner which it believes to be equitable under the circumstances.
As a result of such allocations, there may be instances where the Trust will not participate in a transaction that is allocated
among other accounts. If an aggregated order cannot be filled completely, allocations will generally be made on a pro rata basis.
An order may not be allocated on a pro rata basis where, for example: (i) consideration is given to portfolio managers who have
been instrumental in developing or negotiating a particular investment; (ii) consideration is given to an account with specialized
investment policies that coincide with the particulars of a specific investment; (iii) pro rata allocation would result in odd-lot
or de minimis amounts being allocated to a portfolio or other client; or (iv) where the investment adviser reasonably determines
that departure from a pro rata allocation is advisable. While these aggregation and allocation policies could have a detrimental
effect on the price or amount of the securities available to the Trust from time to time, it is the opinion of the members of the
Board that the benefits from the investment adviser organization outweigh any disadvantage that may arise from exposure to simultaneous
transactions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust has elected and intends to qualify each year to
be treated as a regulated investment company (&#8220;RIC&#8221;) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#8220;Code&#8221;).
Accordingly, the Trust intends to satisfy certain requirements relating to sources of its income and diversification of its assets
and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income, net tax-exempt income, if any, and net capital gains, if any,
(after reduction by any available capital loss carryforwards) in accordance with the timing requirements imposed by the Code, so
as to maintain its RIC status and to avoid paying any federal income or excise tax. To the extent it qualifies for treatment as
a RIC and satisfies the above-mentioned distribution requirements, the Trust will not be subject to federal income tax on income
paid to its shareholders in the form of dividends. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">To qualify as a RIC for federal income tax purposes, the Trust
must derive at least 90% of its annual gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to securities loans, gains
from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, or other income (including, but not limited to,
gains from options, futures or forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of investing in stock, securities and currencies,
and net income derived from an interest in a qualified publicly traded partnership. The Trust must also distribute to its shareholders
at least the sum of 90% of its investment company taxable income and 90% of its net tax-exempt interest income for each taxable
year.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust must also satisfy certain requirements with respect
to the diversification of its assets. The Trust must have, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year, at least 50% of the
value of its total assets represented by cash and cash items, U.S. government securities, securities of other RICs, and other securities
that, in respect of any one issuer, do not represent more than 5% of the value of the assets of the Trust or more than 10% of the
voting securities of that issuer. In addition, at those times, not more than 25% of the value of the Trust&#8217;s assets may be
invested, including through corporations in which the Trust owns a 20% or more voting stock interest, in securities (other than
U.S. Government securities or the securities of other RICs) of any one issuer, or of two or more issuers that the Trust controls
and which are engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses or related trades or businesses, or of one or more qualified
publicly traded partnerships. For purposes of asset diversification testing, obligations issued or guaranteed by certain agencies
or instrumentalities of the U.S. government are treated as U.S. government securities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust also seeks to avoid the imposition of a federal
excise tax on its ordinary income and capital gain net income. In order to avoid incurring a federal excise tax obligation, the
Code requires that a RIC distribute (or be deemed to have distributed) by December 31 of each calendar year (i) at least 98% of
its ordinary income (not including tax-exempt income) for such year, (ii) at least 98.2% of its capital gain net income (which
is the excess of its capital gains over its capital losses), generally computed on the basis of the one-year period ending on October
31 (or later if the Trust is permitted to elect and so elects) of such year, after reduction by any available capital loss carryforwards
and (iii) 100% of any income and capital gains from the prior year (as previously computed) that was not paid out during such year
and on which the Trust paid no federal income tax. If the Trust fails to meet these requirements it will be subject to a nondeductible
4% excise tax on the undistributed amounts. For the foregoing purposes, a RIC is treated as having distributed any amount on which
it is subject to income tax for any tax year ending in such calendar year and, if it so elects, the amounts on which qualified
estimated tax payments are made by it during such calendar year (in which case the amount it is treated as having distributed in
the following calendar year will be reduced.) </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">If the Trust does not qualify as a RIC for any taxable year,
the Trust&#8217;s taxable income will be subject to corporate income taxes, and all distributions from earnings and profits, including
distributions of net capital gain (if any), will be taxable to the shareholder as ordinary income. Such distributions may be eligible
to be treated as qualified dividend income with respect to shareholders who are individuals and may be eligible for the dividends
received deduction (&#8220;DRD&#8221;) in the case of shareholders taxed as corporations, provided, in both cases, the shareholder
meets certain holding period and other requirements in respect to the Trust&#8217;s shares. In order to requalify for taxation
as a RIC, the Trust may be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay substantial taxes and interest, and make substantial distributions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Distributions are taxable as described herein whether shareholders
receive them in cash or in additional shares of the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust intends to make monthly distributions of net investment
income after payment of dividends on any outstanding preferred shares or interest on any outstanding borrowings. The Trust will
distribute annually any net short-term capital gain (which is taxable as ordinary income) and any net capital gain. Distributions
of the Trust's net capital gains (&#8220;capital gain dividends&#8221;), if any, are generally taxable to shareholders as long-term
capital gains, regardless of the length of time shares have been held by shareholders. Dividends paid to shareholders out of the
Trust's current and accumulated earnings and profits, except in the case of capital gain dividends and certain dividends received
by individuals, will be taxable as ordinary income. Dividends with respect to the shares generally will not constitute &#8220;qualified
dividends&#8221; for federal income tax purposes and thus will not be eligible for the favorable long-term capital gains tax rates.

and (b) the Trust reports the failure pursuant to a schedule for the quarter filed as provided by the IRS and pays an excise tax.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates
between the time the Trust accrues income or receivables or expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and
the time the Trust actually collects such income or receivables or pays such liabilities are generally treated as ordinary income
or loss. Transactions in foreign currencies, foreign currency-denominated debt securities and certain foreign currency options,
futures contracts, forward contracts and similar instruments (to the extent permitted) may give rise to ordinary income or loss
to the extent such income or loss results from fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency concerned.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust may be subject to foreign withholding or other foreign
taxes with respect to income (possibly including, in some cases, capital gains) on certain foreign securities. These taxes may
be reduced or eliminated under the terms of an applicable U.S. income tax treaty. If more than 50% of the value of the total assets
of the Trust consists of securities issued by foreign issuers, the Trust may be eligible to pass through to shareholders its proportionate
share of any foreign taxes paid by the Trust, in which event shareholders will include in income, and will be entitled to take
any foreign tax credits or deductions for, such foreign taxes. It is not anticipated that the Trust will be eligible to make such
election.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust's investment in zero coupon and certain other securities
will cause it to realize income prior to the receipt of cash payments with respect to these securities. Such income will be accrued
daily by the Trust and, in order to avoid a tax payable by the Trust, the Trust may be required to liquidate securities that it
might otherwise have continued to hold in order to generate cash so that the Trust may make required distributions to its shareholders.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Any recognized gain or income attributable to market discount
on long-term debt obligations (i.e., on obligations with a term of more than one year except to the extent of a portion of the
discount attributable to original issue discount) purchased by the Trust is taxable as ordinary income. A long-term debt obligation
is generally treated as acquired at a market discount if purchased after its original issue at a price less than (i) the stated
principal amount payable at maturity, in the case of an obligation that does not have original issue discount or (ii) in the case
of an obligation that does have original issue discount, the sum of the issue price and any original issue discount that accrued
before the obligation was purchased, subject to a de minimis exclusion.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The Trust may invest a portion of its total assets in &#8220;high
yield&#8221; securities, commonly known as &#8220;junk bonds.&#8221; Investments in these types of securities may present special
tax issues for the Trust. U.S. federal income tax rules are not entirely clear about issues such as when the Trust may cease to
accrue interest, original issue discount or market discount, when and to what extent deductions may be taken for bad debts or worthless
securities, how payments received on obligations in default should be allocated between principal and income and whether exchanges
of debt obligations in a bankruptcy or workout context are taxable. These and other issues will be addressed by the Trust, in the
event it invests in such debt securities, in order to seek to preserve its status as a RIC and to not become subject to U.S. federal
income or excise tax. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust's investments in options, futures contracts, hedging
transactions, forward contracts (to the extent permitted) and certain other transactions will be subject to special tax rules (including
mark-to-market, constructive sale, straddle, wash sale, short sale and other rules), the effect of which may be to accelerate income
to the Trust, defer Trust losses, cause adjustments in the holding periods of securities held by the Trust, convert capital gain
into ordinary income and convert short-term capital losses into long-term capital losses. These rules could therefore affect the
amount, timing and character of distributions to shareholders. The Trust may be required to limit its activities in options and
futures contracts in order to enable it to maintain its RIC status.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Shareholders selling shares of the Trust will generally recognize
gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the shareholder's adjusted tax basis in the shares sold and the amount
received. If the shares are held as a capital asset, the gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Any loss on a disposition of shares held for six months or less
will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any capital gain dividends received with respect to those shares.
For purposes of determining whether shares have been held for six months or less, the holding period is suspended for any periods
during which the shareholder's risk of loss is diminished as a result of holding one or more other positions in substantially similar
or related property, or through certain options or short sales. Any loss realized on a sale or exchange of shares will be disallowed
to the extent those shares are replaced by other shares within a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days
after the date of disposition of the shares (whether through the reinvestment of distributions, which could occur, for example,
if the shareholder is a participant in the dividend reinvestment plan or otherwise). In that event, the basis of the replacement
shares will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Sales charges paid upon a purchase of shares cannot be taken
into account for purposes of determining gain or loss on a sale of the shares before the 91st day after their purchase to the extent
a sales charge is reduced or eliminated in a subsequent acquisition of shares of the Trust (or of another fund) during the period
beginning on the date of such sale and ending on January 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year that includes the
date of such sale pursuant to the reinvestment or exchange privilege. Any disregarded amounts will result in an adjustment to the
shareholder's tax basis in some or all of any other shares acquired.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Certain net investment income received by an individual having
adjusted gross income in excess of $200,000 (or $250,000 for married individuals filing jointly) will be subject to a tax of 3.8
percent. Undistributed net investment income of trusts and estates in excess of a specified amount also will be subject to this
tax. Dividends and capital gains distributed by the Trust, and gain realized on the sale of shares, will constitute investment
income of the type subject to this tax.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Dividends and distributions on the Trust's shares are generally
subject to U.S. federal income tax as described herein to the extent they do not exceed the Trust's realized income and gains,
even though such dividends and distributions may economically represent a return of a particular shareholder's investment. Such
distributions are likely to occur in respect of shares purchased at a time when the Trust's net asset value reflects gains that
are either unrealized, or realized but not distributed. Such realized gains may be required to be distributed even when the Trust's
net asset value also reflects unrealized losses. Certain distributions declared in October, November or December and paid in the
following January will be taxed to shareholders as if received on December 31 of the year in which they were declared. In addition,
certain other distributions made after the close of a taxable year of the Trust may be &#8220;spilled back&#8221; and treated as
paid by the Trust (except for purposes of the 4% excise tax) during such taxable year. In such case, shareholders will be treated
as having received such dividends in the taxable year in which the distributions were actually made. Dividends paid out of the
Trust's investment company taxable income are generally taxable to a shareholder as ordinary income to the extent of the Trust's
earnings and profits. Dividends with respect to the shares generally will not constitute &#8220;qualified dividends&#8221; for
federal income tax purposes and thus will not be eligible for the favorable long-term capital gains tax rates. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Amounts paid by the Trust to individuals and certain other shareholders
who have not provided the Trust with their correct taxpayer identification number (&#8220;TIN&#8221;) and certain certifications
required by the IRS as well as shareholders with respect to whom the Trust has received certain information from the IRS or a broker
may be subject to &#8220;backup&#8221; withholding of federal income tax arising from the Trust's taxable dividends and other distributions
as well as the gross proceeds of sales of shares. An individual's TIN is generally his or her social security number. Backup withholding
is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from payments made to a shareholder may be refunded
or credited against such shareholder's U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the required information is furnished
to the IRS and such shareholder makes a timely filing of an appropriate tax return or refund claim.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust will inform shareholders of the source and tax status
of all distributions promptly after the close of each calendar year. The IRS has taken the position that if a RIC has more than
one class of shares, it may designate distributions made to each class in any year as consisting of no more than that class's proportionate
share of particular types of income for that year, including ordinary income and net capital gain. A class's proportionate share
of a particular type of income for a year is determined according to the percentage of total dividends paid by the RIC during that
year to the class. Accordingly, the Trust intends to designate a portion of its distributions in capital gain dividends in accordance
with the IRS position.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust (or its administrative agent) is required to report
to the IRS and furnish to shareholders the cost basis information and holding period for shares purchased on or after January 1,
2012, and redeemed by the Trust on or after that date. The Trust will permit shareholders to elect from among several permitted
cost basis methods. In the absence of an election, the Trust will use a default cost basis method. The cost basis method a shareholder
elects may not be changed with respect to a redemption of shares after the settlement date of the redemption. Shareholders should
consult with their tax advisors to determine the best permitted cost basis method for their tax situation and to obtain more information
about how the cost basis reporting rules apply to them.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The foregoing discussion may not address the special tax rules
applicable to certain classes of investors, such as tax-exempt entities, foreign investors, insurance companies and financial institutions.
Shareholders should consult their own tax advisers with respect to special tax rules that may apply in their particular situations,
as well as the state, local, and, where applicable, foreign tax consequences of investing in the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Although the matter is not free from doubt, due to the absence
of direct regulatory or judicial authority, the Trust intends to take the position that under current law the manner in which the
Trust intends to allocate items of ordinary income and net capital gain among the Trust's Common Shares and Auction Preferred Shares
will be respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is possible that the IRS could disagree with this conclusion and attempt
to reallocate the Trust's net capital gain or other taxable income. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Under Treasury Regulations, if a shareholder realizes a loss
on disposition of the Trust&#8217;s shares of at least $2 million in any single taxable year or $4 million in any combination of
taxable years for an individual shareholder, or at least $10 million in any single taxable year or $20 million in any combination
of taxable years for a corporate shareholder, the shareholder must file with the IRS a disclosure statement on Form 8886. Direct
shareholders of portfolio securities are in many cases excepted from this reporting requirement, but under current guidance, shareholders
of a RIC are not excepted. The fact that a loss is reportable under these regulations does not affect the legal determination of
whether the Shareholder&#8217;s treatment of the loss is proper. Shareholders should consult their tax advisors to determine the
applicability of these regulations in light of their individual circumstances. Under certain circumstances, certain tax-exempt
entities and their managers may be subject to excise tax if they are parties to certain reportable transactions. </P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Compliance
with FATCA.</B></FONT> The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, Code Sections 1471 through 1474 and the U.S. Treasury Regulations
and IRS guidance issued thereunder (collectively, &#8220;FATCA&#8221;) generally require a Trust to obtain information sufficient
to identify the status of each of its shareholders under FATCA or under an applicable intergovernmental agreement (an &#8220;IGA&#8221;)
between the United States and a foreign government. If a shareholder of a Trust fails to provide the requested information or otherwise
fails to comply with FATCA or an IGA, the Trust may be required to withhold under FATCA at a rate of 30% with respect to that shareholder
on ordinary dividends it pays. The IRS and the Department of Treasury have issued proposed regulations providing that these withholding
rules will not apply to the gross proceeds of share redemptions or capital gain dividends the Trust pays. If a payment by the Trust
is subject to withholding under FATCA, the Trust is required to withhold even if such payment would otherwise be exempt from withholding
under the rules applicable to foreign shareholders described above (e.g., dividends attributable to qualified net interest income).
Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications of these requirements on their investment
in the Trust.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> The foregoing briefly summarizes some of the important U.S.
federal income tax consequences to Shareholders of investing in shares, reflects the federal tax law as of the date of this Statement
of Additional Information, and does not address special tax rules applicable to certain types of investors, such as tax-exempt
entities, corporate investors, foreign investors, insurance companies and financial institutions. This discussion is based upon
current provisions of the Code, the regulations promulgated thereunder, and judicial and administrative ruling authorities, all
of which are subject to change or differing interpretations by the courts or the IRS retroactively or prospectively. No attempt
has been made to present a complete explanation of the federal tax treatment of the Trust or the implications to Shareholders,

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Trust is an organization of the type commonly known as a
&#8220;Massachusetts business trust.&#8221; Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of such a trust may, in certain circumstances,
be held personally liable as partners for the obligations of the trust. The Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer
of shareholder liability in connection with the Trust property or the acts, obligations or affairs of the Trust. The Declaration
of Trust, in coordination with the Trust&#8217;s By-laws, also provides for indemnification out of the Trust property of any shareholder
held personally liable for the claims and liabilities to which a shareholder may become subject by reason of being or having been
a shareholder. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is limited to circumstances
in which the Trust itself is unable to meet its obligations. The Trust has been advised by its counsel that the risk of any shareholder
incurring any liability for the obligations of the Trust is remote.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Declaration of Trust provides that the Trustees will not
be liable for errors of judgment or mistakes of fact or law; but nothing in the Declaration of Trust protects a Trustee against
any liability to the Trust or its shareholders to which he or she would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance,
bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his or her office. Voting rights are
not cumulative, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the election of Trustees can elect 100%
of the Trustees and, in such event, the holders of the remaining less than 50% of the shares voting on the matter will not be able
to elect any Trustees.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Declaration of Trust provides that no person shall serve
as a Trustee if shareholders holding two-thirds of the outstanding shares have removed him from that office either by a written
declaration filed with the Trust&#8217;s custodian or by votes cast at a meeting called for that purpose. The Declaration of Trust
further provides that the Trustees of the Trust shall promptly call a meeting of the shareholders for the purpose of voting upon
a question of removal of any such Trustee or Trustees when requested in writing so to do by the record holders of not less than
10 per centum of the outstanding shares.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Issuer Ratings are opinions of the ability of entities to honor
senior unsecured debt and debt like instruments. As such, Issuer Ratings incorporate any external support that is expected to apply
to all current and future issuance of senior unsecured financial obligations and contracts, such as explicit support stemming from
a guarantee of all senior unsecured financial obligations and contracts, and/or implicit support for issuers subject to joint default
analysis (e.g. banks and government-related issuers). Issuer Ratings do not incorporate support arrangements, such as guarantees,
that apply only to specific (but not to all) senior unsecured financial obligations and contracts.</P>

RATINGS</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 9pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">SHORT-TERM OBLIGATION RATINGS</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">While the global short-term &#8216;prime&#8217; rating scale
is applied to US municipal tax-exempt commercial paper, these programs are typically backed by external letters of credit or liquidity
facilities and their short-term prime ratings usually map to the long-term rating of the enhancing bank or financial institution
and not to the municipality&#8217;s rating. Other short-term municipal obligations, which generally have different funding sources
for repayment, are rated using two additional short-term rating scales (i.e., the MIG and VMIG scales discussed below).</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Municipal Investment Grade (MIG) scale is used to rate US
municipal bond anticipation notes of up to three years maturity. Municipal notes rated on the MIG scale may be secured by either
pledged revenues or proceeds of a take-out financing received prior to note maturity. MIG ratings expire at the maturity of the
obligation, and the issuer&#8217;s long-term rating is only one consideration in assigning the MIG rating. MIG ratings are divided
into three levels&#8212;MIG 1 through MIG 3&#8212;while speculative grade short-term obligations are designated SG.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>MIG

This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Debt instruments in this category may lack sufficient margins of protection.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">Demand Obligation Ratings</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">In the case of variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs), a two-component
rating is assigned; a long or short-term rating and demand obligation rating. The first element represents Moody&#8217;s evaluation
of the degree of risk associated with scheduled principal and interest payments. The second element represents Moody&#8217;s evaluation
of the degree of risk associated with the ability to receive purchase price upon demand (&#8220;demand feature&#8221;), The second
element uses a rating from a variation of the MIG scale called the Variable Municipal Investment Grade (VMIG) scale. VMIG ratings
of demand obligations with unconditional liquidity support are mapped from the short-term debt rating (or counterparty assessment)
of the support provider, or the underlying obligor in the absence of third party liquidity support, with VMIG 1 corresponding to
P-1, VMIG 2 to P-2, VMIG 3 to P-3 and SG to not prime. Transitions of VMIG ratings of demand obligations with conditional liquidity
support, as shown in the diagram below, differ from transitions on the Prime scale to reflect the risk that external liquidity
support will terminate if to reflect the risk that external liquidity support will terminate if the issuer&#8217;s long-term rating
drops below investment grade.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">S&amp;P&#8217;s issue credit rating is a forward-looking opinion
about the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to a specific financial obligation, a specific class of financial obligations,
or a specific financial program (including ratings on medium-term note programs and commercial paper programs). It takes into consideration
the creditworthiness of guarantors, insurers, or other forms of credit enhancement on the obligation and takes into account the
currency in which the obligation is denominated. The opinion reflects S&amp;P&#8217;s view of the obligor's capacity and willingness
to meet its financial commitments as they come due, and may assess terms, such as collateral security and subordination, which
could affect ultimate payment in the event of default.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Issue credit ratings can be either long-term or short-term. Short-term
ratings are generally assigned to those obligations considered short-term in the relevant market. Short-term ratings are also used
to indicate the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to put features on long-term obligations. Medium-term notes are assigned
long-term ratings.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">LONG-TERM ISSUE CREDIT RATINGS:</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Issue credit ratings are based, in varying degrees, on S&amp;P&#8217;s

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Issue ratings are an assessment of default risk, but may incorporate
an assessment of relative seniority or ultimate recovery in the event of default. Junior obligations are typically rated lower
than senior obligations, to reflect the lower priority in bankruptcy, as noted above. (Such differentiation may apply when an entity
has both senior and subordinated obligations, secured and unsecured obligations, or operating company and holding company obligations.)</P>

</FONT>An obligor rated 'SD' (selective default) or 'D' is in default on one or more of its financial obligations including rated
and unrated financial obligations but excluding hybrid instruments classified as regulatory capital or in non-payment according
to terms. An obligor is considered in default unless S&amp;P believes that such payments will be made within five business days
of the due date in the absence of a stated grace period, or within the earlier of the stated grace period or 30 calendar days.
A 'D' rating is assigned when S&amp;P believes that the default will be a general default and that the obligor will fail to pay
all or substantially all of its obligations as they come due. An 'SD' rating is assigned when S&amp;P believes that the obligor
has selectively defaulted on a specific issue or class of obligations but it will continue to meet its payment obligations on other
issues or classes of obligations in a timely manner. An obligor's rating is lowered to 'D' or 'SD' if it is conducting a distressed
exchange offer.</P>

of the ability of insurance companies to repay punctually senior policyholder claims and obligations and also reflect the expected
financial loss suffered in the event of default. Specific obligations are considered unrated unless they are individually rated
because the standing of a particular insurance obligation would depend on an assessment of its relative standing under those laws

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">SD or D</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">An insurer rated 'SD' (selective default) or 'D' is in default
on one or more of its insurance policy obligations but is not under regulatory supervision that would involve a rating of 'R'.
The 'D' rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of similar action if payments on a policy
obligation are at risk. A 'D' rating is assigned when S&amp;P believes that the default will be a general default and that the
obligor will fail to pay substantially all of its obligations in full in accordance with the policy terms. An 'SD' rating is assigned
when S&amp;P believes that the insurer has selectively defaulted on a specific class of policies but it will continue to meet its
payment obligations on other classes of obligations. A selective default includes the completion of a distressed exchange offer.
Claim denials due to lack of coverage or other legally permitted defenses are not considered defaults.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">NR</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif"><B>Plus
(+) or Minus (-):</B></FONT> The ratings from &#8216;AA&#8217; to&#8217; CCC&#8217; may be modified by the addition of a plus (+)
or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">Fitch Insurer Financial Strength Rating</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Insurer Financial Strength (IFS) Rating provides an assessment
of the financial strength of an insurance organization. The IFS Rating is assigned to the insurance company's policyholder obligations,
including assumed reinsurance obligations and contract holder obligations, such as guaranteed investment contracts. The IFS Rating
reflects both the ability of the insurer to meet these obligations on a timely basis, and expected recoveries received by claimants
in the event the insurer stops making payments or payments are interrupted, due to either the failure of the insurer or some form
of regulatory intervention. In the context of the IFS Rating, the timeliness of payments is considered relative to both contract
and/or policy terms but also recognizes the possibility of reasonable delays caused by circumstances common to the insurance industry,
including claims reviews, fraud investigations and coverage disputes.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The IFS Rating does not encompass policyholder obligations residing
in separate accounts, unit-linked products or segregated funds, for which the policyholder bears investment or other risks. However,
any guarantees provided to the policyholder with respect to such obligations are included in the IFS Rating.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Expected recoveries are based on the agency's assessments of
the sufficiency of an insurance company's assets to fund policyholder obligations, in a scenario in which payments have ceased
or been interrupted. Accordingly, expected recoveries exclude the impact of recoveries obtained from any government sponsored guaranty
or policyholder protection funds. Expected recoveries also exclude the impact of collateralization or security, such as letters
of credit or trusteed assets, supporting select reinsurance obligations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">IFS Ratings can be assigned to insurance and reinsurance companies
in any insurance sector, including the life &amp; annuity, non-life, property/casualty, health, mortgage, financial guaranty, residual
value and title insurance sectors, as well as to managed care companies such as health maintenance organizations.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The IFS Rating does not address the quality of an insurer's claims
handling services or the relative value of products sold.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The IFS Rating uses the same symbols used by the agency for its
International and National credit ratings of long-term or short-term debt issues. However, the definitions associated with the
ratings reflect the unique aspects of the IFS Rating within an insurance industry context.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Obligations for which a payment interruption has occurred due
to either the insolvency or failure of the insurer or some form of regulatory intervention will generally be rated between 'B'
and 'C' on the Long-Term IFS Rating scales (both International and National). International Short-Term IFS Ratings assigned under
the same circumstances will align with the insurer's International Long-Term IFS Ratings.</P>

Act of 1940, as amended (the &#8220;1940 Act&#8221;), the Fund is required to file Form N-PX no later than August 31st of each

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The Board expects the Adviser, as a fiduciary to the Fund it
manages, to put the interests of the Fund and its shareholders above those of the Adviser. When required to vote a proxy for the
Fund, the Adviser may have material business relationships with the issuer soliciting the proxy that could give rise to a potential
material conflict of interest for the Adviser.<FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial Narrow, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; font-size: 9pt"><SUP>2</SUP></FONT>
In the event such a material conflict of interest arises, the Adviser, to the extent it is aware or reasonably should have been
aware of the material conflict, will refrain from voting any proxies related to companies giving rise to such material conflict
until it notifies and consults with the appropriate Board, or any committee, sub-committee or group of Independent Trustees identified
by the Board (as long as such committee, sub-committee or group contains at least two or more Independent Trustees) (the &#8220;Board
Members&#8221;), concerning the material conflict.<FONT STYLE="font-family: Arial Narrow, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; font-size: 9pt"><SUP>3</SUP></FONT>
For ease of communicating with the Board Members, the Adviser is required to provide the foregoing notice to the Fund&#8217;s Chief

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0"> Eaton Vance Management, Boston Management and Research, Eaton
Vance Investment Counsel, Eaton Vance Management (International) Limited, Eaton Vance Advisers International Ltd. and Eaton Vance
Trust Company (each an &#8220;Adviser&#8221; and collectively the &#8220;Advisers&#8221;) have each adopted and implemented policies
and procedures that each Adviser believes are reasonably designed to ensure that proxies are voted in the best interest of clients,
in accordance with its fiduciary duties and, to the extent applicable, Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940,
as amended. The Advisers&#8217; authority to vote the proxies of their clients is established by their advisory contracts or similar
documentation. These proxy policies and procedures are intended to reflect current requirements applicable to investment advisers
registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (&#8220;SEC&#8221;) . These procedures may change from time to time. </P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">II. Overview</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Each Adviser manages its clients&#8217; assets with the overriding
goal of seeking to provide the greatest possible return to such clients consistent with governing laws and the investment policies
of each client. In pursuing that goal, each Adviser seeks to exercise its clients&#8217; rights as shareholders of voting securities
to support sound corporate governance of the companies issuing those securities with the principle aim of maintaining or enhancing
the companies&#8217; economic value.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">The exercise of shareholder rights is generally done by casting
votes by proxy at shareholder meetings on matters submitted to shareholders for approval (for example, the election of directors
or the approval of a company&#8217;s stock option plans for directors, officers or employees). Each Adviser has established guidelines
(&#8220;Guidelines&#8221;) as described below and generally will utilize such Guidelines in voting proxies on behalf of its clients.
The Guidelines are largely based on those developed by the Agent (defined below) but also reflect input from the Global Proxy Group
(defined below) and other Adviser investment professionals and are believed to be consistent with the views of the Adviser on the
various types of proxy proposals. These Guidelines are designed to promote accountability of a company&#8217;s management and board
of directors to its shareholders and to align the interests of management with those of shareholders. The Guidelines provide a
framework for analysis and decision making but do not address all potential issues.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 6pt 0">Except as noted below, each Adviser will vote any proxies received
by a client for which it has sole investment discretion through a third-party proxy voting service (&#8220;Agent&#8221;) in accordance
with the Guidelines in a manner that is reasonably designed to eliminate any potential conflicts of interest, as described more
fully below. The Agent is currently Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. Where applicable, proxies will be voted in accordance
with client-specific guidelines or, in the case of an Eaton Vance Fund that is sub-advised, pursuant to the sub-adviser&#8217;s
proxy voting policies and procedures. Although an Adviser retains the services of the Agent for research and voting recommendations,
the Adviser remains responsible for proxy voting decisions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0">III. Roles and Responsibilities</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">A. Proxy Administrator</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">The Proxy Administrator and/or her designee coordinate
the consideration of proxies referred back to the Adviser by the Agent, and otherwise administers these Procedures. In the Proxy
Administrator&#8217;s absence, another employee of the Adviser may perform the Proxy Administrator&#8217;s responsibilities as
deemed appropriate by the Global Proxy Group. The Proxy Administrator also may designate another employee to perform certain of
the Proxy Administrator&#8217;s duties hereunder, subject to the oversight of the Proxy Administrator.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">If the Guidelines prescribe the manner in which the
proxy is to be voted, the Agent shall vote in accordance with the Guidelines, which for certain types of proposals, are recommendations
of the Agent made on a case-by-case basis.</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">2. Seek Guidance for a Referred Item or a Proposal
for which there is No Guideline</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">If (i) the Guidelines state that the proxy shall be
referred to the Adviser to determine the manner in which it should be voted or (ii) a proxy is received for a proposal for which
there is no Guideline, the Proxy Administrator and/or her designee shall consult with the analyst(s) covering the company subject
to the proxy proposal and shall instruct the Agent to vote in accordance with the determination of the analyst. The Proxy Administrator
and/or her designee will maintain a record of all proxy proposals that are referred by the Agent, as well as all applicable recommendations,
analysis and research received and the resolution of the matter. Where more than one analyst covers a particular company and the
recommendations of such analysts for voting a proposal subject to this Section IV.B.2 conflict, the Global Proxy Group shall review
such recommendations and any other available information related to the proposal and determine the manner in which it should be
voted, which may result in different recommendations for clients (including Funds).</P>

<P STYLE="font: bold 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">3. Votes Contrary to the Guidelines or Where
Agent is Conflicted</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">In the event an analyst with respect to companies
within his or her coverage area may recommend a vote contrary to the Guidelines, the Proxy Administrator and/or her designee will
provide the Global Proxy Group with the Agent&#8217;s recommendation for the Proposal along with any other relevant materials,
including a description of the basis for the analyst&#8217;s recommendation via email and the Proxy Administrator and/or designee

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">It shall generally be the policy of the Advisers to
take no action on a proxy for which no client holds a position or otherwise maintains an economic interest in the relevant security
at the time the vote is to be cast. In addition, the Advisers may determine not to vote (i) if the economic effect on shareholders'
interests or the value of the portfolio holding is indeterminable or insignificant (<I>e.g.,</I> proxies in connection with securities
no longer held in the portfolio of a client or proxies being considered on behalf of a client that is no longer in existence);
(ii) if the cost of voting a proxy outweighs the benefits (<I>e.g.,</I> certain international proxies, particularly in cases in
which share blocking practices may impose trading restrictions on the relevant portfolio security); (iii) in markets in which shareholders'
rights are limited; or (iv) the Adviser is unable to access or access timely ballots or other proxy information. Non-Votes may
also result in certain cases in which the Agent's recommendation has been deemed to be conflicted, as provided for herein.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 3pt 0 3pt 0.25in">When a fund client participates in the lending of
its securities and the securities are on loan at the record date for a shareholder meeting, proxies related to such securities
generally will not be forwarded to the relevant Adviser by the fund&#8217;s custodian and therefore will not be voted. In the event
that the Adviser determines that the matters involved would have a material effect on the applicable fund&#8217;s investment in
the loaned securities, the Adviser will make reasonable efforts to terminate the loan in time to be able to cast such vote or exercise
such consent. The Adviser shall instruct the fund&#8217;s security lending agent to refrain from lending the full position of any
security held by a fund to ensure that the Adviser receives notice of proxy proposals impacting the loaned security.</P>

the Advisers with such information as the Advisers deem reasonable and appropriate for use in determining material relationships
of the Agent that may pose a conflict of interest with respect to the Agent&#8217;s proxy analysis or recommendations. Such information
shall include, but is not limited to, a monthly report from the Agent detailing the Agent&#8217;s Corporate Securities Division
clients and related revenue data. The Advisers shall review such information on a monthly basis. The Proxy Administrator shall
instruct the Agent to refer any proxies for which a material conflict of the Agent is deemed to be present to the Proxy Administrator.
Any such proxy referred by the Agent shall be referred to the Global Proxy Group for consideration accompanied by the Agent&#8217;s
written analysis and voting recommendation. The Proxy Administrator will instruct the Agent to vote the proxy as recommended by
the Global Proxy Group.</P>

persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described in this Item 30, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that
in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment
by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant 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, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</P>

to Eaton Vance Senior Floating-Rate Trust (the &#8220;Trust&#8221;). I am admitted to practice law in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust pursuant to the Declaration of Trust dated August 5, 2003, as amended (the &#8220;Declaration

have the powers set forth in the Declaration of Trust, subject to the terms, provisions and conditions therein provided. As provided
in the Declaration of Trust, the Trustees may authorize one or more series or classes of shares and the number of shares of each
series or class authorized is unlimited. Under the Declaration of Trust, the Trustees may from time to time issue and sell or cause
to be issued and sold shares of the Trust for cash or for property. All such shares, when so issued, shall be fully paid and nonassessable
by the Trust.</P>

if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal
liability for the obligations of the Trust. The Trust&#8217;s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability
on the part of shareholders and the Trust&#8217;s By-laws provide that the Trust shall, upon request by the shareholder, assume
the defense of any claim made against any shareholder for any act or obligation of the Trust and satisfy any judgement thereon.
The Declaration of Trust also contains provisions limiting the liability of a series or class to that series or class. Moreover,
the Trust&#8217;s By-laws also provide for indemnification of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being
or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial
loss on account of shareholder liability is limited to circumstances in which the Trust itself would be unable to meet its obligations.</P>
