PROXY STATEMENT

     A proxy is enclosed with the foregoing Notice of the Annual Meetings of Shareholders of Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund II (the "Enhanced Equity Income Fund") and Eaton Vance Risk-Managed Diversified Equity Income Fund (the "Risk-Managed Fund") (collectively the "Funds"), to be held April 23, 2010, for the benefit of shareholders who do not expect to be present at the meeting. This proxy is solicited on behalf of the Board of Trustees of each Fund, and is revocable by the person giving it prior to exercise by a signed writing filed with the Funds’ Secretary, or by executing and delivering a later dated proxy, or by attending the meeting and voting the shares in person. If you attend the meeting in person, please be prepared to present photo identification. Each proxy will be voted in accordance with its instructions; if no instruction is given, an executed proxy will authorize the persons named as attorneys, or any of them, to vote in favor of the election of each Trustee. This proxy material is being mailed to shareholders on or about February 22, 2010.

     The Board of Trustees of each Fund has fixed the close of business on February 11, 2010 as the record date for the determination of the shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof. Shareholders at the close of business on the record date will be entitled to one vote for each share held. The number of Common Shares, $.01 par value per share, of each Fund outstanding on February 11, 2010, were as follows:

  No. of Common Shares 
Fund  Outstanding on February 11, 2010 
Enhanced Equity Income Fund  48,221,631 
Risk-Managed Fund  72,380,944 

Each Fund will vote separately on each item; votes of multiple Funds will not be aggregated.

     As of February 11, 2010, to each Fund’s knowledge, (i) no shareholder beneficially owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of a Fund; and (ii) the Trustees and officers of each Fund, individually and as a group, owned beneficially less than 1% of the outstanding shares of each Fund.

     The Board of Trustees of the Funds know of no business other than that mentioned in Item 1 of the Notice of Meeting which will be presented for consideration. If any other matters are properly presented, it is the intention of the persons named as attorneys in the enclosed proxy to vote the proxies in accordance with their judgment on such matters.

PROPOSAL 1. ELECTION OF TRUSTEES

     Each Fund’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust provides that a majority of the Trustees shall fix the number of the entire Board and that such number shall be at least two and no greater than fifteen. Each Board will fix the appropriate number of Trustees from time to time. Each Fund’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust further provides that the Board of Trustees shall be divided into three classes. The term of office of the Class III Trustees expires on the date of the 2010 Annual Meeting, and the term of office of the Class I and Class II Trustees will expire one and two years thereafter, respectively. Accordingly, only nominees for Class III Trustee are currently proposed for election. Class III Trustees chosen to succeed the Trustees whose terms are expiring will be elected for a three-year term. An effect of staggered terms is to limit the ability of entities or persons to acquire control of a Fund.

     Proxies will be voted for the election of the following Class III Trustee nominees: Heidi L. Steiger, Lynn A. Stout and Ralph F. Verni. Each nominee is currently serving as a Trustee and has consented to continue to so serve. In the event that a nominee is unable to serve for any reason (which is not now expected) when the election occurs, the accompanying Proxy will be voted for such other person or persons as the Board of Trustees may recommend. Election of Trustees is non-cumulative. Shareholders do not have appraisal rights in connection with the proposal in this proxy statement. The Trustees of each Fund shall be elected by the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares of the Fund entitled to vote. No nominee is a party adverse to the Funds or any of its affiliates in any material pending legal proceeding, nor does any nominee have an interest materially adverse to the Funds.

1


     The Class I Trustees serving until the 2011 Annual Meeting are Benjamin C. Esty, Thomas E. Faust, Jr. and Allen R. Freedman. The Class II Trustees serving until the 2012 Annual Meeting are William H. Park and Ronald A. Pearlman for each Fund. Helen Frame Peters for Risk-Managed Diversified Equity Income Fund and Heidi L. Steiger for Enhanced Equity Income Fund II.

     The nominees for Class III Trustee and each Fund’s current Class I and Class II Trustees and their principal occupations for at least the last five years are as described below.

Board Meetings and Committees

     During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, the Trustees of each Fund met seven times. Each Board of Trustees has several formal standing committees, an Audit Committee, a Contract Review Committee, a Governance Committee, a Portfolio Management Committee and a Compliance Reports and Regulatory Matters Committee. The Audit Committee met five times, the Contract Review Committee met eight times, the Governance Committee met three times, the Portfolio Management Committee met eight times and the Compliance Reports and Regulatory Matters Committee met eleven times during such period. Each Trustee attended at least 75% of such Board and Committee meetings on which he or she serves. None of the Trustees attended the Fund’s 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

     Each Committee of the Board of Trustees of each Fund is comprised of only those Trustees who are not “interested persons” as that term is defined under the 1940 Act (“Independent Trustees”). The respective duties and responsibilities of these Committees remain under the continuing review of the Governance Committee and the Board.

     Messrs. Park (Chair) and Verni, and Mmes. Steiger and Stout serve on the Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees of each Fund, such Audit Committee being established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Each Audit Committee member is independent under applicable listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. The purposes of the Audit Committee are to (i) oversee each Fund’s accounting and financial reporting processes, its internal control over financial reporting, and, as appropriate, the internal control over financial reporting of certain service providers; (ii) oversee or, as appropriate, assist Board oversight of the quality and integrity of each Fund’s financial statements and the independent audit thereof; (iii) oversee, or, as appropriate, assist Board oversight of, each Fund’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements that relate to the Fund’s accounting and financial reporting, internal control over financial reporting and independent audits; (iv) approve, prior to appointment, the engagement and, when appropriate, replacement of the independent auditors, and, if applicable, nominate independent auditors to be proposed for shareholder ratification in any proxy statement of each Fund; (v) evaluate the qualifications, independence and performance of the independent auditors and the audit partner in charge of leading the audit; and (vi) prepare, as necessary, such Audit Committee reports consistent with the requirements of applicable Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and stock exchange rules for inclusion in the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Fund. Each Fund’s Board of Trustees has adopted a written charter for its Audit Committee, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A. The written charter is also available on the Eaton Vance website, www.eatonvance.com, select "Individual Investors" followed by "Investor Resources" and then "Corporate Governance". The Audit Committee’s Report is set forth below under “Additional Information”. The Board of Trustees of each Fund have designated Mr. Park as the Fund’s Audit Committee financial expert.

     Messrs. Verni (Chair), Esty, Freedman, Park and Pearlman, and Ms. Peters serve on the Contract Review Committee of the Board of Trustees of each Fund. The purposes of the Contract Review Committee are to consider, evaluate and make recommendations to the Board of Trustees concerning the following matters: (i) contractual arrangements with each service provider to each Fund, including advisory, sub-advisory, transfer agency, custodial and fund accounting, distribution services (if any) and administrative services; (ii) any and all other matters in which any of each Fund’s service providers (including Eaton Vance or any affiliated entity thereof) has an actual or potential conflict of interest with the interests of the Fund or its shareholders; and (iii) any other matter appropriate for review by the Independent Trustees, unless the matter is within the responsibilities of the Audit Committee or the Governance Committee of each Fund.

     Messrs. Esty (Chair) and Freedman, and Ms. Peters are currently members of the Portfolio Management Committee of the Board of Trustees of each Fund. The purposes of the Portfolio Management Committee are to: (i) assist the Board of Trustees in its oversight of the portfolio management process employed by each Fund and their investment adviser and sub-adviser(s), if applicable, relative to the Funds’ stated objective(s), strategies and restrictions; (ii) assist the Board of Trustees in its oversight of the trading policies and procedures and risk management techniques applicable to the Funds; and (iii) assist the Board of Trustees in its monitoring of the performance results of all funds, giving special attention to the performance of certain funds that it or the Board of Trustees identifies from time to time.

     Mr. Pearlman (Chair) and Mmes. Steiger and Stout are currently members of the Compliance Reports and Regulatory Matters Committee of the Board of Trustees of each Fund. The purposes of the Compliance Reports and Regulatory Matters Committee are to: (i) assist the Board of Trustees in its oversight role with respect to compliance issues and certain other regulatory matters affecting the Funds; (ii) serve as a liaison between the Board of Trustees and the Funds’ Chief Compliance Officer; and (iii) serve as a “qualified legal compliance committee” within the rules promulgated by the SEC.

     Mmes. Stout (Chair), Peters and Steiger, and Messrs. Esty, Freedman, Park, Pearlman and Verni serve on the Governance Committee of the Board of Trustees of each Fund. Each Governance Committee member is independent under applicable listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. The purpose of the Governance Committee is to consider, evaluate and make recommendations to the Board of Trustees with respect to the structure, membership and operation of the Board of Trustees and

5


the Committees thereof, including the nomination and selection of Independent Trustees and a Chairperson of the Board and the compensation of Independent Trustees.

     Each Fund’s Board of Trustees has adopted a written charter for its Governance Committee, a copy of which is available on the Eaton Vance website, www.eatonvance.com, select "Individual Investors" followed by "Investor Resources" and then "Corporate Governance". The Governance Committee identifies candidates by obtaining referrals from such sources as it deems appropriate, which may include current Trustees, management of the Fund, counsel and other advisors to the Trustees, and shareholders of the Funds who submit recommendations in accordance with the procedures described in the Committee’s charter. In no event shall the Governance Committee consider as a candidate to fill any vacancy an individual recommended by management of the Funds, unless the Governance Committee has invited management to make such a recommendation. The Governance Committee will, when a vacancy exists or is anticipated, consider any nominee for Independent Trustee recommended by a shareholder if such recommendation is submitted in writing to the Governance Committee, contains sufficient background information concerning the candidate, including evidence the candidate is willing to serve as an Independent Trustee if selected for the position, and is received in a sufficiently timely manner. The Governance Committee’s procedures for identifying and evaluating candidates for the position of Independent Trustee, including the procedures to be followed by shareholders of a Fund wishing to recommend such candidates for consideration by the Governance Committee and the qualifications the Governance Committee will consider, are set forth in an appendix to the Committee’s charter.

Communications with the Board of Trustees

     Shareholders wishing to communicate with the Board may do so by sending a written communication to the Chairperson of the Board of Trustees, the Chairperson of any Committee of the Board of Trustees or to the Independent Trustees as a group, at the following address: Two International Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, c/o the Secretary of the applicable Fund.

Remuneration of Trustees

     Each Independent Trustee is compensated for his or her services according to a fee schedule adopted by each Board of Trustees, and receives a fee that consists of an annual retainer and a committee service component. Each Fund currently pays each Independent Trustee a pro rata share, as described below of: (i) an annual retainer of $170,000; (ii) an additional annual retainer of $115,000 for serving as the Chair of the Independent Trustees; (iii) an additional annual retainer of $40,000 for Committee Service; (iv) an additional annual retainer of $20,000 for serving as the Governance Committee Chair, the Audit Committee Chair, the Compliance Committee Chair or the Portfolio Management Committee Chair; and (v) out-of-pocket expenses. The pro rata share paid by each Fund is based on the Fund’s average net assets as a percentage of the average net assets of all the funds in the Eaton Vance Fund Complex. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, the Trustees of each Fund earned the compensation set forth below in their capacities as Trustees of each Fund. For the calendar year ended December 31, 2009, the Trustees earned the compensation set forth below in their capacities as Trustees of the funds in the Eaton Vance Fund Complex(1):

(3)      Includes deferred compensation as follows: Enhanced Equity Income Fund - $2,439 and Risk-Managed Fund - $4,804.
(4)      Includes $45,000 of deferred compensation.
(5)      Includes $162,500 of deferred compensation.

     Trustees of each Fund who are not affiliated with Eaton Vance may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of a Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Trustees’ Plan”). Under the Trustees’ Plan, an eligible Trustee may elect to have his or her deferred fees invested by each Fund in the shares of one or more funds in the Eaton Vance Fund Complex, and the amount paid to the Trustees under the Trustees’ Plan will be determined based upon the performance of such investments. Deferral of Trustees’ fees in accordance with the Trustees’ Plan will have a negligible effect on a Fund’s assets,

liabilities, and net income per share, and will not obligate a Fund to retain the services of any Trustee or obligate a Fund to pay any particular level of compensation to the Trustee. No Fund has a retirement plan for its Trustees.

The Board of Trustees recommends that shareholders vote FOR the election of the three Class III Trustee nominees.

NOTICE TO BANKS AND BROKER/DEALERS

     Each Fund has previously solicited all Nominee and Broker/Dealer accounts as to the number of additional proxy statements required to supply owners of shares. Should additional proxy material be required for beneficial owners, please call 1-866-439-6787, send an email to info@amstock.com or forward such requests to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 59 Maiden Lane, New York, NY 10038.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Audit Committee Report

     Each Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with Fund management. Each Audit Committee also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by SAS 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards), as modified or supplemented. Each Audit Committee received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), as modified or supplemented, and discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm their independence.

     Based on the review and discussions referred to above, each Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Trustees that the audited financial statements be included in the Fund’s annual report to shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 for filing with the SEC. As mentioned, the Audit Committee is currently comprised of Messrs. Park (Chair) and Verni, and Mmes. Steiger and Stout.

Auditors, Audit Fees and All Other Fees. Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”), 200 Berkeley Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02116, serves as the independent registered public accounting firm of each Fund. Deloitte is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, but if not, a representative will be available by telephone should the need for consultation arise. Representatives of Deloitte will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

     Aggregate audit, audit-related, tax, and other fees billed to each Fund by the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm for the relevant periods are set forth on Exhibit B hereto. Aggregate non-audit fees (i.e., fees for audit-related, tax, and other services) billed for the relevant periods to (i) each Fund by the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm; and (ii) the Eaton Vance Organization by the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm are also set forth on Exhibit B hereto.

     Each Fund’s Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures relating to the pre-approval of services provided by the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm (the “Pre-Approval Policies”). The Pre-Approval Policies establish a framework intended to assist the Audit Committee in the proper discharge of its pre-approval responsibilities. As a general matter, the Pre-Approval Policies (i) specify certain types of audit, audit-related, tax, and other services determined to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee; and (ii) delineate specific procedures governing the mechanics of the pre-approval process, including the approval and monitoring of audit and non-audit service fees. Unless a service is specifically pre-approved under the Pre-Approval Policies, it must be separately pre-approved by the Audit Committee. The Pre-Approval Policies and the types of audit and non-audit services pre-approved therein must be reviewed and ratified by each Fund’s Audit Committee at least annually. Each Fund’s Audit Committee maintains full responsibility for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the work of the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm.

     Each Fund’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision by the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm of non-audit services to the Fund’s investment adviser, as well as any of its affiliates that provide ongoing services to the Fund, that were not pre-approved pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(ii) of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence.

Investment Adviser and Administrator

     Eaton Vance Management, with its principal office at Two International Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, serves as the investment adviser and administrator to each Fund.

Proxy Solicitation and Tabulation

     The expense of preparing, printing and mailing this Proxy Statement and enclosures and the costs of soliciting proxies on behalf of the Board of Trustees of each Fund will be borne ratably by the Funds. Proxies will be solicited by mail and may be solicited in person or by telephone or facsimile by officers of a Fund, by personnel of its administrator, Eaton Vance, by the transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, or by broker-dealer firms. The expenses associated with the solicitation of these proxies and with any further proxies which may be solicited by a Fund’s officers, by Eaton Vance personnel, by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, or by broker-dealer firms, in person, or by telephone or by facsimile will be borne by that Fund. A written proxy may be delivered to a Fund or its transfer agent prior to the meeting by facsimile machine, graphic communication equipment or similar electronic transmission. A Fund will reimburse banks, broker-dealer firms, and other persons holding shares registered in their names or in the names of their nominees, for their expenses incurred in sending proxy material to and obtaining proxies from the beneficial owners of such shares. Total estimated proxy solicitation costs per Fund are approximately $81,969.

8


     All proxy cards solicited by the Board of Trustees that are properly executed and received by the Secretary prior to the meeting, and which are not revoked, will be voted at the meeting. Shares represented by such proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions thereon. If no specification is made on the proxy card with respect to Proposal 1, it will be voted FOR the matters specified on the proxy card. All shares that are voted and votes to ABSTAIN will be counted towards establishing a quorum, as will broker non-votes. (Broker non-votes are shares for which (i) the beneficial owner has not voted and (ii) the broker holding the shares does not have discretionary authority to vote on the particular matter.) Accordingly, abstentions and broker non-votes, which will be treated as shares that are present at the meeting but which have not been voted, will assist a Fund in obtaining a quorum but will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 1.

     A quorum requires the presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the outstanding shares of a Fund entitled to vote. In the event that a quorum is not present at the meeting, or if a quorum is present at the meeting but sufficient votes by the shareholders of a Fund in favor of the Proposal set forth in the Notice of this meeting are not received by April 23, 2010, the persons named as attorneys in the enclosed proxy may propose one or more adjournments of the meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of that Fund present in person or by proxy at the session of the meeting to be adjourned. The persons named as attorneys in the enclosed proxy will vote in favor of such adjournment those proxies which they are entitled to vote in favor of the Proposal for which further solicitation of proxies is to be made. They will vote against any such adjournment those proxies required to be voted against such Proposal. The costs of any such additional solicitation and of any adjourned session will be borne by the Funds. If any of the nominees are not elected by shareholders, the current Trustees may consider other courses of action.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

     Based solely upon a review of the copies of the forms received by the Funds, all of the Trustees and officers of each Fund, EVM and its affiliates and any person who owns more than ten percent of a Fund’s outstanding securities have made all filings required under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 regarding ownership of shares of the Funds for the Funds’ fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

     Each Fund will furnish without charge a copy of its most recent Annual Reports to any shareholder upon request. Shareholders desiring to obtain a copy of such reports should call 1-866-439-6787, send an email to info@amstock.com or write to the Fund c/o American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 59 Maiden Lane, New York, NY 10038. Shareholder reports are also available on the Eaton Vance website, www.eatonvance.com, by selecting "Individual Investors" followed by "Investor Resources" and then "Closed-End Funds".

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

     To be considered for presentation at a Fund’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, a shareholder proposal submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 must be received at the Fund’s principal office c/o the Secretary of the Fund no later than the close of business October 25, 2010. Written notice of a shareholder proposal submitted outside of the processes of Rule 14a-8 must be delivered to the Fund’s principal office c/o the Secretary of the Fund no later than the close of business January 24, 2011 and no earlier than December 24, 2010. In order to be included in the Fund’s proxy statement and form of proxy, a shareholder proposal must comply with all applicable legal requirements. Timely submission of a proposal does not guarantee that such proposal will be included.

EXHIBIT A

EATON VANCE FUNDS

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

I. Composition of the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee (the "Committee") of each registered investment company sponsored by Eaton Vance Management (each a “Fund”) shall be comprised of at least three Trustees appointed by the Board. All members of the Committee shall be Trustees who are not “interested persons” (as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any Fund or of the investment adviser or sub-adviser of any Fund (each, an “Independent Trustee” and collectively, the “Independent Trustees”). Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Trustees, the Chairperson of the Board of Trustees shall be a member of the Committee. A Chairperson of the Committee shall be appointed by the Board of Trustees on the recommendation of the Governance Committee.

The following requirements shall also be satisfied with respect to the membership and composition of the Committee:

(1)  each member of the Committee shall have been determined by the Board of Trustees to have no material relationship 
  that would interfere with the exercise of his or her independent judgment; 
(2)  no member of the Committee shall receive any compensation from a Fund except compensation for service as a 
  member or Chairperson of the Board of Trustees or of a committee of the Board of Trustees; 
(3)  each member of the Committee shall also satisfy the applicable Committee membership requirements imposed under 
  the rules of the NYSE Amex (formerly the American Stock Exchange) and New York Stock Exchange (and any other 
  national securities exchange on which a Fund’s shares are listed), as in effect from time to time, including with 
  respect to the member’s former affiliations or employment and financial literacy; 
(4)  at least one member of the Committee must have the accounting or related financial management expertise and 
  financial sophistication required under applicable rules of the NYSE Amex and New York Stock Exchange; and 
(5)  unless it determines that no member of the Committee qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in 
  Item 3 of Form N-CSR, the Board of Trustees will identify one (or in its discretion, more than one) member of the 
  Committee as an audit committee financial expert. 

II. Purposes of the Committee.

The purposes of the Committee are to: 
(1)  oversee each Fund’s accounting and financial reporting processes, its internal control over financial reporting, and, as 
  appropriate, the internal control over financial reporting of certain service providers; 
(2)  oversee or, as appropriate, assist Board of Trustees oversight of the quality and integrity of the Funds’ financial 
  statements and the independent audit thereof; 
(3)  oversee, or, as appropriate, assist Board of Trustees oversight of, the Funds’ compliance with legal and regulatory 
  requirements that relate to the Funds’ accounting and financial reporting, internal control over financial reporting and 
  independent audits; 
(4)  approve prior to appointment the engagement and, when appropriate, replacement of the independent registered 
  public accountants (“independent auditors”), and, if applicable, nominate independent auditors to be proposed for 
  shareholder ratification in any proxy statement of a Fund; 
(5)  evaluate the qualifications, independence and performance of the independent auditors and the audit partner in 
  charge of leading the audit; and 
(6)  prepare such audit committee reports consistent with the requirements of applicable Securities and Exchange 
  Commission, NYSE Amex and New York Stock Exchange rules for inclusion in the proxy statement for the annual 
  meeting of shareholders of a Fund. 

The primary function of the Committee is oversight. The Committee is not responsible for managing the Funds or for performing tasks that are delegated to the officers of any Fund, any investment adviser to a Fund, the custodian of a Fund, and other service

A-1


providers for the Funds, and nothing in this charter shall be construed to reduce the responsibilities or liabilities of management or the Funds’ service providers, including the independent auditors. It is management's responsibility to maintain appropriate systems for accounting and internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, management is responsible for: (1) the preparation, presentation and integrity of the financial statements of each Fund; (2) the maintenance of appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles and policies; and (3) the maintenance of internal control over financial reporting and other procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and related laws and regulations. The independent auditors are responsible for planning and carrying out an audit consistent with applicable legal and professional standards and the terms of their engagement letter, and shall report directly to the Committee. In performing its oversight function, the Committee shall be entitled to rely upon advice and information that it receives in its discussions and communications with management, the independent auditors and such experts, advisors and professionals as may be consulted by the Committee.

III. Meetings of the Committee.

Meetings of the Committee shall be held at such times (but not less frequently than annually), at such places and for such purposes (consistent with the purposes set forth in this charter) as determined from time to time by the Board of Trustees, the Chairperson of the Board of Trustees, the Committee or the Chairperson of the Committee. The Committee shall set its agenda and the places and times of its meetings. The Audit Committee may meet alone and outside the presence of management personnel with any auditor of a Fund, and shall periodically meet separately with management, with internal auditors (or other personnel responsible for internal control of financial reporting), with any independent auditors rendering reports to the Committee or the Board of Trustees and with legal counsel. A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting, and the decision of a majority of the members present and voting shall determine any matter submitted to a vote. The Committee may adopt such procedures or rules as it deems appropriate to govern its conduct under this charter. Each Independent Trustee of the Board of Trustees shall receive notice of all Committee meetings, and such meetings shall be open for any Independent Trustee to attend.

IV. Duties and Powers of the Committee.

To carry out its purposes, the Committee shall have the following duties and powers with respect to each Fund: 
(1)  To meet to review and discuss with management and the independent auditors the audited financial statements and 
  other periodic financial statements of the Fund (including the Fund’s specific disclosures under the item 
  “Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance”); provided that discussion with the independent auditors shall not 
  be required with respect to any periodic financial statement of the Fund that was not the subject of a review by such 
  auditors. 
(2)  To consider the results of the examination of the Fund’s financial statements by the independent auditors, the 
  independent auditors’ opinion with respect thereto, and any management letter issued by the independent auditors. 
(3)  To review and discuss with the independent auditors: (a) the scope of audits and audit reports and the policies 
  relating to internal auditing procedures and controls and the accounting principles employed in the Fund’s financial 
  reports and any proposed changes therein; (b) the personnel, staffing, qualifications and experience of the 
  independent auditors; and (c) the compensation of the independent auditors. 
(4)  To review and assess the performance of the independent auditors and to approve, on behalf of the Board of Trustees, 
  the appointment and compensation of the independent auditors. Approval by the Committee shall be in addition to 
  any approval required under applicable law by a majority of the members of the Board of Trustees who are not 
  “interested persons” of the Fund as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act. In performing this function, the 
  Committee shall: (a) consider whether there should be a regular rotation of the Fund’s independent auditing firm; (b) 
  discuss with the independent auditors matters bearing upon the qualifications of such auditors as “independent” 
  under applicable standards of independence established from time to time by the Securities and Exchange 
  Commission (“SEC”), the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and other regulatory authorities; and (c) shall 
  secure from the independent auditors the information required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, 
  Independence Discussions with Audit Committees, as in effect from time to time. The Committee shall actively 
  engage in a dialogue with the independent auditors with respect to any disclosed relationships or services that may 
  impact the objectivity and independence of the independent auditors. 
(5)  To pre-approve: (a) audit and non-audit services provided by the independent auditors to the Fund; and (b) non-audit 
  services provided by the independent auditors to the adviser or any other entity controlling, controlled by or under 
  common control with the adviser that provides on-going services to the Fund (“Adviser Affiliates”) if the engagement 
  of the independent auditors relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund, as contemplated by 
  the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) and the rules issued by the SEC in connection therewith 

A-2


  (except, in the case of non-audit services provided to the Fund or any Adviser Affiliate, those within applicable de 
  minimis statutory or regulatory exceptions), and to consider the possible effect of providing such services on the 
  independence of the independent auditors. 
(6)  To adopt, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Committee, policies and procedures for pre-approval of the audit or 
  non-audit services referred to above, including policies and procedures by which the Committee may delegate to one 
  or more of its members authority to grant such pre-approval on behalf of the Committee (subject to subsequent 
  reporting to the Committee). The Committee hereby delegates to each of its members the authority to pre-approve 
  any non-audit services referred to above between meetings of the Committee, provided that: (i) all reasonable efforts 
  shall be made to obtain such pre-approval from the Chairperson of the Committee prior to seeking such pre-approval 
  from any other member of the Committee; and (ii) all such pre-approvals shall be reported to the Committee not later 
  than the next meeting thereof. 
(7)  To consider the controls implemented by the independent auditors and any measures taken by management to 
  ensure that all items requiring pre-approval by the Committee are identified and referred to the Committee in a timely 
  fashion. 
(8)  To receive at least annually and prior to the filing with the SEC of the independent auditors’ report on the Fund’s 
  financial statements, a report from such independent auditors of: (i) all critical accounting policies and practices 
  used by the Fund (or, in connection with any update, any changes in such accounting policies and practices), (ii) all 
  material alternative accounting treatments within GAAP that have been discussed with management since the last 
  annual report or update, including the ramifications of the use of the alternative treatments and the treatment 
  preferred by the accounting firm, (iii) other material written communications between the independent auditors and 
  the management of the Fund since the last annual report or update, (iv) a description of all non-audit services 
  provided, including fees associated with the services, to any fund complex of which the Fund is a part since the last 
  annual report or update that was not subject to the pre-approval requirements as discussed above; and (v) any other 
  matters of concern relating to the Fund’s financial statements, including any uncorrected misstatements (or audit 
  differences) whose effects management believes are immaterial, both individually and in aggregate, to the financial 
  statements taken as a whole. If this information is not communicated to the Committee within 90 days prior to the 
  audit report’s filing with the SEC, the independent auditors will be required to provide an update, in the 90 day 
  period prior to the filing, of any changes to the previously reported information. 
(9)  To review and discuss with the independent auditors the matters required to be communicated with respect to the 
  Fund pursuant to Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 61 “Communication With Audit Committees,” as in 
  effect from time to time, and to receive such other communications or reports from the independent auditors (and 
  management’s responses to such reports or communications) as may be required under applicable listing standards 
  of the national securities exchanges on which the Fund’s shares are listed, including a report describing: (1) the 
  internal quality-control procedures of the independent auditors, any material issues raised by the most recent internal 
  quality-control review, or peer review, of the independent auditors, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental 
  or professional regulatory authorities, within the preceding five years, respecting one or more independent audits 
  carried out by the independent auditors, and any steps taken to deal with any such issues; and (2) all relationships 
  between the independent auditors and the Fund and any other relationships or services that may impact the 
  objectivity and independence of the independent auditors. To the extent unresolved disagreements exist between 
  management and the independent auditors regarding the financial reporting of the Fund, it shall be the responsibility 
  of the Committee to resolve such disagreements. 
(10)  To consider and review with the independent auditors any reports of audit problems or difficulties that may have 
  arisen in the course of the audit, including any limitations on the scope of the audit, and management’s response 
  thereto. 
(11)  To establish hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent auditors who will serve as officers 
  or employees of the Fund. 
(12)  With respect to each Fund the securities of which are listed on a national securities exchange, to: (a) provide a 
  recommendation to the Board of Trustees regarding whether the audited financial statements of the Fund should be 
  included in the annual report to shareholders of the Fund; and (b) to prepare an audit committee report consistent 
  with the requirements of Rule 306 of Regulation S-K for inclusion in the proxy statement for the Fund’s annual 
  meeting of shareholders. 
(13)  To discuss generally the Fund’s earnings releases, as well as financial information and guidance provided to analysts 
  and rating agencies, in the event a Fund issues any such releases or provides such information or guidance. Such 

                                                                                                        A-3


    discussions may include the types of information to be disclosed and the type of presentation to be made. The 
    Committee need not discuss in advance each earnings release or each instance in which earnings guidance may be 
    provided. 
  (14)  To consider the Fund’s major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control 
    such exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management 
    is undertaken. 
  (15)  To review and report to the Board of Trustees with respect to any material accounting, tax, valuation, or record- 
    keeping issues which may affect the Fund, its respective financial statements or the amount of their dividend or 
    distribution rates. 
  (16)  To establish procedures for: (a) the receipt, retention, and treatment of complaints received by the Fund regarding 
    accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters; and (b) the confidential, anonymous submission by 
employees of the Fund or its service providers (including its investment advisers, administrators, principal
    underwriters and any other provider of accounting related services to the Fund) of concerns regarding questionable 
    accounting or auditing matters. The Committee hereby establishes the procedures set forth in Appendix A hereto 
    with respect to such matters. 
  (17)  To direct and supervise investigations with respect to the following: (a) evidence of fraud or significant deficiencies in 
    the design or implementation of internal controls reported to the Committee by the principal executive or financial 
    officers of the Fund pursuant to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related rules; and (b) any other 
    matters within the scope of this charter, including the integrity of reported facts and figures, ethical conduct, and 
    appropriate disclosure concerning the financial statements of the Funds. 
  (18)  To review and recommend to the Board of Trustees policies and procedures for valuing portfolio securities of the Fund 
    and to make recommendations to the Board of Trustees with respect to specific fair value determinations and any 
    pricing errors involving such portfolio securities. 
  (19)  To coordinate its activities with the other committees of the Board of Trustees as necessary or appropriate and to 
    communicate with such other committees regarding any material concerns or questions such committees may wish 
    to consider in exercising their respective powers. 
  (20)  To act on such other matters as may be delegated to the Committee by the Board of Trustees from time to time. 
  (21)  To review the adequacy of this charter and evaluate the Committee’s performance of its duties and responsibilities 
    hereunder at least annually, and to make recommendations to the Board of Trustees for any appropriate changes or 
    other action. 
  (22)  To make recommendations to the Board of Trustees with respect to any of the above or such other matters as the 
    Committee may deem necessary or appropriate in connection therewith. 
V.  Reports to the Board of Trustees. 
  The Committee shall periodically report its activities to the Board of Trustees. 
VI.  Resources and Authority of the Audit Committee. 
  The Committee shall have the resources and authority appropriate to discharge its responsibilities, including the authority to 
  engage independent auditors for special audits, reviews and other procedures and to retain special counsel and other experts 
  or consultants at the expense of the Funds. The Committee may determine the appropriate levels of funding for payment of 
  compensation to such independent auditors, counsel, experts and consultants, and the ordinary administrative expenses of the 
  Committee necessary or appropriate in exercising its powers and fulfilling its responsibilities under this charter, including the 
  reasonable costs of specialized training for Committee members. The Committee shall have direct access to such officers and 
  employees of the Funds, Eaton Vance Management and any of its affiliated companies and the Funds’ other services providers 
  as it deems necessary or desirable.

APPENDIX A

EATON VANCE FUNDS

AUDIT COMMITTEE COMPLAINT PROCEDURES

This policy outlines the procedures that the Audit Committee (the "Committee") of each of the registered investment companies sponsored by Eaton Vance Management (each, a "Fund") shall employ with respect to complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters concerning each of the Funds ("Complaints"). Each Employee (as defined below) shall be provided with a copy of these procedures upon assuming his or her duties as an Employee, and annually thereafter.

I. Procedures for Receiving Complaints

All officers and employees of a Fund and, to the extent their duties relate to accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters for the Fund, the officers and employees of the Fund’s investment advisers, administrators, principal underwriters and any other provider of accounting related services to the Fund (collectively referred to herein as "Employees"), may make complaints anonymously and in a confidential manner as follows:

(1)      The complaining Employee may place a telephone call to the Chairperson of the Committee. During this phone call, the Employee should identify the source of his or her Complaint and the practices that are alleged to constitute an impropriety with respect to accounting, internal auditing controls or auditing matters relating to a Fund, providing as much detail as possible.
(2)      Alternatively, the Employee may submit to the Chairperson of the Committee (by hand, mail, e-mail or fax) a confidential memorandum which details the Employee’s Complaint and the practices that are alleged to constitute an improper accounting, internal auditing control or auditing matter, providing as much detail as possible.
(3)      The name an contact information for the current Chairperson of the Committee will be provided to Employees when they are provided with a copy of these procedures.

II. Procedures for Treating Complaints

The Chairperson of the Committee or another member of the Committee will conduct an initial evaluation of each Complaint received by the Committee as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt. In connection with the initial evaluation, the Chairperson of the Committee (or such other of the Committee) will determine whether the Complaint actually relates to the accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters of a Fund and, if not, whether it should be reviewed by a party other than the Committee. The Chairperson of the Committee shall also determine whether the Complaint requires investigation by the Committee.

After the initial evaluation is complete, all Complaints requiring investigation by the Committee will be discussed at the next regularly-scheduled meeting of the Committee, or a specially-scheduled meeting in advance thereof. The Committee shall investigate the Complaints as follows:
