Leverage achieved through the issuance of APS. Use of financial
leverage creates an opportunity for increased income, but at the
same time creates special risks (including the likelihood of
greater volatility of net asset value and market prices of common
shares). Please see note above entitled "Leverage" for further
information on these percentages. + Beginning in May 2008 through
August 2008, the Fund redeemed in full its APS. Each Municipal
Income Trust paid a monthly dividend on September 17, 2009 to
shareholders of record on September 10, 2009. Each Insured
Municipal Bond Fund paid a monthly dividend on September 30, 2009
to shareholders of record on September 23, 2009. As portfolio and
market conditions change, the rate of future distributions may
change. DATASOURCE: Eaton Vance Management CONTACT: Investors,
