EATON VANCE NEW YORK MUNICIPAL INCOME TRUST (EVY)
Two International Place

Trustee, Eaton Vance New York Municipal Income Trust
Dear Valued Shareholder:
The special meeting of shareholders of Eaton Vance
New York Municipal Income Trust has been adjourned to July 27, 2021.
The Fund’s Board of Trustees recommends
that you vote “FOR” the proposal to liquidate the Fund. Please consider supporting your Board’s recommendation
by voting “FOR” the liquidation proposal on the enclosed proxy card. It is important that you vote your shares promptly to
ensure an orderly liquidation and termination of the Fund.
Upon liquidation, the Fund would make a cash payment
to you equal to your proportionate share of the Fund’s net assets. As of July 12, 2021, the Fund’s net asset value per share
was $15.29, which exceeds the Fund’s market closing price per share of $15.14 on the same date by approximately 1.00%. If
the Fund’s shares continue to trade at a discount to net asset value, liquidating the Fund would entitle you to cash proceeds that
exceed what you could receive in the market for selling your shares. The Fund’s net asset value and market trading price
per share are subject to change, and may be higher or lower upon liquidation.
Voting is easy and fast. You can vote your proxy using one of the options
below:
• Online
or touchtone: Visit the website indicated on the proxy card
• Phone:
Call (800) 791-3319. You can speak to a live operator if you need assistance
• Mail:
Sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided.
If you have any questions about these proposals, you
may contact your financial advisor or AST Fund Solutions at (800) 791-3319.
Sincerely,
Thomas E. Faust Jr.
