Dear Shareholder:
As you may be aware, Eaton Vance has entered into a definitive
agreement to be acquired by Morgan Stanley. By combining the capabilities and resources of Eaton Vance and Morgan Stanley, we seek
to better serve Fund shareholders and our other clients.
In connection with the proposed transaction, Fund shareholders
are being asked to approve new investment advisory agreements for the Funds. Approval of the new agreements will provide continuity
of each Fund’s investment program and help ensure that Fund operations continue uninterrupted after the close of the transaction.
The Funds’ joint special meeting of shareholders to consider the new agreements is scheduled for January 7, 2021. To
this point, we have not received your vote. Please take the time to vote your WHITE proxy card(s) now.
You may receive proxy materials from Saba Capital Management,
L.P., a hedge fund manager, and certain of its affiliates (Saba), including a GOLD or other non-white proxy card, seeking your
vote against your Fund’s investment advisory agreement and unilateral discretion for Saba to decide not to vote your shares
at the meeting. The Boards of Trustees of the Funds urge you NOT to sign any proxy card sent to you by Saba or by any
person other than the Funds.
We encourage you to utilize one of the following easy options
for voting today:
· By telephone: Call the toll-free number printed on the enclosed WHITE proxy card(s) and follow the instructions.
|
· By internet: Access the website address printed on the enclosed WHITE proxy card(s) and follow the directions on the website.
|
· By mail: Complete, sign, and date the WHITE proxy card(s) you received and return in the self-addressed, postage-paid envelope.
|
By casting your proxy vote on the WHITE
proxy card now, you ensure your shares are represented and that we won’t contact you further regarding this matter.
If you have any questions or would like to
receive a copy of your Fund’s proxy statement, please contact AST Fund Solutions at (866) 416-0552. You may also view your
Fund’s proxy statement online at: https://funds.eatonvance.com/closed-end-fund-and-term-trust-documents.php
