In order to consummate the Reorganization (as defined in Section 1(b) below) and in consideration of the promises and the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound, Eaton Vance National Municipal Income Trust (FEV), a Massachusetts business trust and a registered closed-end investment company, File No. 811-09143 (the “Acquired Fund”) and Eaton Vance Municipal Income Trust (EVN) (the “Acquiring Fund” and together with the Acquired Fund, the “Funds”), a Massachusetts business trust and a registered closed-end investment company, File No. 811-09141, each hereby agree as follows:


1.	Representations and Warranties of the Acquiring Fund.

The Acquiring Fund represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Acquired Fund that:

(a)	The Acquiring Fund is a Massachusetts business trust, with transferable shares, duly organized,
	validly existing under, and in good standing in conformity with, the laws of The Commonwealth
	of Massachusetts, and has the power to own all of its assets and to carry out its obligations under
	this Agreement. The Acquiring Fund has all necessary federal, state and local authorizations to
	carry on its business as it is now being conducted and to carry out this Agreement.

(b)	The Acquiring Fund is duly registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
	(the “1940 Act”) as a diversified, closed-end management investment company and such

	has elected and qualified for the special tax treatment afforded regulated investment companies
	(“RICs”) under Section 851 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) at
	all times since its inception and intends to continue to so qualify until consummation of the
	reorganization contemplated hereby (the “Reorganization”) and thereafter.

(c)	The Acquiring Fund has furnished the Acquired Fund with the Acquiring Fund’s Annual Report
	to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008, and the audited financial statements
	appearing therein, having been audited by Deloitte & Touche, LLP, independent registered public
	accounting firm, fairly present the financial position of the Acquiring Fund as of the respective
	dates indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
	applied on a consistent basis.

(d)	An unaudited statement of assets, liabilities and capital of the Acquiring Fund and an unaudited
	schedule of investments of the Acquiring Fund, each as of the Valuation Time (as defined in
	Section 3(e) of this Agreement), will be furnished to the Acquired Fund, at or prior to the Closing
	Date (as defined in Section 7(a) herein), for the purpose of determining the number of Acquiring
	Fund Common Shares and Acquiring Fund APS Shares (each as defined in Section 1(e) herein) to
	be issued pursuant to Section 3(a) of this Agreement; each will fairly present the financial
	position of the Acquiring Fund as of the Valuation Time in conformity with generally accepted
	accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.

(e)	The Acquiring Fund has full power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under
	this Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement has been duly
	authorized by all necessary action of its Board of Trustees, and this Agreement constitutes a valid
	and binding contract enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of
	bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and similar laws relating to or
	affecting creditors’ rights generally and court decisions with respect thereto.


(f)	There are no material legal, administrative or other proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of
	the Acquiring Fund, threatened against it which assert liability on the part of the Acquiring Fund
	or which materially affect its financial condition or its ability to consummate the Reorganization.
	The Acquiring Fund is not charged with or, to the best of its knowledge, threatened with any
	violation or investigation of any possible violation of any provisions of any federal, state or local
	law or regulation or administrative ruling relating to any aspect of its business material to the
	Reorganization.

(g)	The Acquiring Fund is not obligated under any provision of its Declaration of Trust dated
	December 10, 1998, as amended, or its by-laws, as amended, and is not a party to any contract or
	other commitment or obligation, and is not subject to any order or decree, which would be
	violated by its execution of or performance under this Agreement, except insofar as the Funds
	have mutually agreed to amend such contract or other commitment or obligation to cure any
	potential violation as a condition precedent to the Reorganization.

(h)	There are no material contracts outstanding to which the Acquiring Fund is a party that have not
	been disclosed in the N-14 Registration Statement (as defined in subsection (k) below) or that
	will not otherwise be disclosed to the Acquired Fund prior to the Valuation Time.

(i)	The Acquiring Fund has no known liabilities of a material amount, contingent or otherwise, other
	than those shown on its statements of assets, liabilities and capital referred to in subsection (c)
	above, those incurred in the ordinary course of its business as an investment company, and those
	incurred in connection with the Reorganization. As of the Valuation Time, the Acquiring Fund
	will advise the Acquired Fund in writing of all known liabilities, contingent or otherwise, whether
	or not incurred in the ordinary course of business, existing or accrued as of such time, except to
	the extent disclosed in the financial statements referred to in subsection (c) above.

(j)	No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or government authority or self-
	regulatory organization is required for the consummation by the Acquiring Fund of the
	Reorganization, except such as may be required under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange
	(“NYSE”), Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of
	1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) and the 1940 Act or state securities laws (which term as used
	herein shall include the laws of the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico).

(k)	The registration statement filed by the Acquiring Fund on Form N-14, which includes the proxy
	statement of the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund with respect to the transactions
	contemplated herein (the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), and any supplement or
	amendment thereto or to the documents therein (as amended or supplemented, the “N-14
	Registration Statement”), on its effective date, at the time of the shareholders’ meetings referred
	to in Section 8(a) and Section 9(a) of this Agreement and at the Closing Date, insofar as it relates
	to the Acquiring Fund, (i) complied or will comply in all material respects with the provisions of
	the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act and the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, and (ii) did
	not or will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
	required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and the
	Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus included therein did not or will not contain any untrue
	statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements
	therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided,
	however, that the representations and warranties in this subsection only shall apply to statements
	in or omissions from the N-14 Registration Statement made in reliance upon and in conformity
	with information furnished by the Acquiring Fund for use in the N-14 Registration Statement.


(l)	The Acquiring Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares of beneficial
	interest, no par value (the “Acquiring Fund Common Shares”), and an unlimited number of
	preferred shares of beneficial interest, no par value. The Board of Trustees of the Acquiring Fund
	has designated 806 preferred shares as Auction Rate Preferred Shares, Series C (“Acquiring Fund
	APS”). Each outstanding Acquiring Fund Common Share and each Acquiring Fund APS share is
	fully paid and nonassessable, and has full voting rights and no shareholder of the Acquiring Fund
	shall be entitled to any preemptive or other similar rights. In regard to the statement that the
	Acquiring Fund Common Shares and Acquiring Fund APS are non-assessable, it is noted that the
	Acquiring Fund is an entity of the type commonly known as a “Massachusetts business trust.”
	Under Massachusetts law, shareholders could, under certain circumstances, be held personally
	liable for the obligations of the Acquiring Fund.

(m)	The Acquiring Fund Common Shares and the Acquiring Fund APS to be issued to the Acquired
	Fund pursuant to this Agreement will have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered
	pursuant to this Agreement, will be legally and validly issued and will be fully paid and,
	nonassessable and will have full voting rights, and no shareholder of the Acquiring Fund will
	have any preemptive right of subscription or purchase in respect thereof.

(n)	At or prior to the Closing Date, the Acquiring Fund Common Shares to be transferred to the
	Acquired Fund for distribution to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund on the Closing Date will
	be duly qualified for offering to the public in all states of the United States in which the sale of
	shares of the Funds presently are qualified, and there will be a sufficient number of such shares
	registered under the 1933 Act and, as may be necessary, with each pertinent state securities
	commission to permit the transfers contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated.

(o)	At or prior to the Closing Date, the Acquiring Fund APS to be transferred to the Acquired Fund
	on the Closing Date will be duly qualified for offering to the public in all states of the United
	States in which the sale of APS of the Acquired Fund presently are qualified, and there are a
	sufficient number of Acquiring Fund APS registered under the 1933 Act and with each pertinent
	state securities commission to permit the transfers contemplated by this Agreement to be
	consummated.

(p)	At or prior to the Closing Date, the Acquiring Fund will have obtained any and all regulatory,
	trustee and shareholder approvals necessary to issue the Acquiring Fund Common Shares and the
	Acquiring Fund APS to the Acquired Fund.

(q)	The Acquiring Fund has filed, or intends to file, or has obtained extensions to file, all federal,
	state and local tax returns which are required to be filed by it, and has paid or has obtained
	extensions to pay, all federal, state and local taxes shown on said returns to be due and owing and
	all assessments received by it, up to and including the taxable year in which the Closing Date
	occurs. All tax liabilities of the Acquiring Fund have been adequately provided for on its books,
	and no tax deficiency or liability of the Acquiring Fund has been asserted and no question with
	respect thereto has been raised by the Internal Revenue Service or by any state or local tax
	authority for taxes in excess of those already paid, up to and including the taxable year in which
	the Closing Date occurs.

(r)	The Acquiring Fund has elected to qualify and has qualified as a RIC as of and since its
	inception; has been a RIC under the Code at all times since the end of its first taxable year when it
	so qualified; qualifies and will continue to qualify as a RIC under the Code; and has satisfied the
	distribution requirements imposed by the Code for each of its taxable years. The Acquiring Fund


	has not at any time since its inception been liable for, and is not now liable for, and will not be
	liable for on the Closing Date, any material income or excise tax pursuant to Section 852 or
	Section 4982 of the Code.

(j)	The Acquired Fund has no known liabilities of a material amount, contingent or otherwise, other
	than those shown on its statements of assets, liabilities and capital referred to above, those

	incurred in the ordinary course of business, existing or accrued as of such time.

(k)	The Acquired Fund has filed, or intends to file, or has obtained extensions to file, all federal, state
	and local tax returns which are required to be filed by it, and has paid or has obtained extensions

	Share is fully paid and nonassessable, and has full voting rights and no person is entitled to any
	preemptive or other similar rights with respect to Acquired Fund Common Shares and Acquired
	Fund APS Shares. In regard to the statement that Acquired Fund Common Shares and Acquired

	Shares or Acquiring Fund APS to be received in the Reorganization, except in distribution to the
	shareholders of the Acquired Fund, as provided in Section 3 of this Agreement.

(s)	The Acquired Fund has elected to qualify and has qualified as a “RIC” under the Code as of and
	since its inception; has been a RIC under the Code at all times since the end of its first taxable
	year when it so qualified; qualifies and will continue to qualify as a RIC under the Code for its
	taxable year ending upon its liquidation; and has satisfied the distribution requirements imposed
	by the Code for each of its taxable years. The Acquired Fund has not at any time since its
	inception been liable for, is not now liable for, and will not be liable for on the Closing Date, any
	material income or excise tax under Section 852 or Section 4982 of the Code.

3.	The Reorganization.

(a)	Subject to receiving the requisite approvals of the shareholders of the Acquired Fund, and to the
	other terms and conditions contained herein, the Acquired Fund agrees to convey, transfer and
	deliver to the Acquiring Fund and the Acquiring Fund agrees to acquire from the Acquired Fund,
	on the Closing Date, all of the Acquired Fund Investments (including interest accrued as of the
	Valuation Time on debt instruments), including the assumption of substantially all of the
	liabilities of the Acquired Fund, in exchange for that number of Acquiring Fund Common Shares
	and Acquiring Fund APS provided in Section 4 of this Agreement. Pursuant to this Agreement,
	as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund will distribute all Acquiring


	Fund Common Shares and Acquiring Fund APS received by it to its shareholders constructively
	in exchange for their Acquired Fund Common Shares and Acquired Fund APS Shares. Such
	distributions shall be accomplished by the opening of shareholder accounts on the share ledger
	records of the Acquiring Fund in the amounts due the shareholders of the Acquired Fund based
	on their respective holdings in the Acquired Fund as of the Valuation Time.

(b)	If it is determined that the portfolios of the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund, when
	aggregated, would contain investments exceeding certain percentage limitations imposed upon
	the Acquiring Fund with respect to such investments, the Acquired Fund, if requested by the
	Acquiring Fund, will dispose of a sufficient amount of such investments as may be necessary to
	avoid violating such limitations as of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a)
	nothing herein will require the Acquired Fund to dispose of any portfolio securities or other
	investments, if, in the reasonable judgment of the Acquired Fund’s Trustees or investment
	adviser, such disposition would adversely affect the tax-free nature of the Reorganization for
	federal income tax purposes or would otherwise not be in the best interests of the Acquired Fund,
	and (b) nothing will permit the Acquired Fund to dispose of any portfolio securities or other
	investments if, in the reasonable judgment of the Acquiring Fund’s Trustees or investment
	adviser, such disposition would adversely affect the tax-free nature of the Reorganization for
	federal income tax purposes or would otherwise not be in the best interests of the Acquiring
	Fund.

(c)	Prior to the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund shall declare a dividend or dividends which,
	together with all such previous dividends, shall have the effect of distributing to their respective
	shareholders all of their respective net investment company taxable income to and including the
	Closing Date, if any (computed without regard to any deduction for dividends paid), and all of its
	net capital gain, if any, realized to and including the Closing Date.

(d)	The Acquired Fund will pay or cause to be paid to the Acquiring Fund any interest the Acquired
	Fund receives on or after the Closing Date with respect to any of the Acquired Fund Investments
	transferred to the Acquiring Fund hereunder.

(e)	The Valuation Time shall be the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchanges,
	normally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the business day prior to the Closing Date, or such earlier or
	later day and time as may be mutually agreed upon in writing (the “Valuation Time”).

(f)	Recourse for liabilities assumed from the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund in the
	Reorganization will be limited to the assets acquired by the Acquiring Fund. The known
	liabilities of the Acquired Fund, as of the Valuation Time, shall be confirmed to the Acquiring
	Fund pursuant to Section 2(j) of this Agreement.

(g)	The Acquired Fund will be terminated following the Closing Date by terminating its registration
	under the 1940 Act and its organization under Massachusetts law and will withdraw its authority
	to do business in any state where it is required to do so.

(h)	The Acquiring Fund will file with the Secretary of State of The Commonwealth of
	Massachusetts, as required, any amendment to its Declaration of Trust and By-Laws establishing
	the powers, rights and preferences of the Acquiring Fund APS prior to the closing of the
	Reorganization.


4.	Issuance and Valuation of Acquiring Fund Common Shares and Acquiring Fund APS in the
	Reorganization.

(a)	Acquiring Fund Common Shares and Acquiring Fund APS of an aggregate net asset value or
	aggregate liquidation preference, as the case may be, equal to the value of the Acquired Fund
	Investments acquired in the Reorganization determined as hereinafter provided, shall be issued by
	the Acquiring Fund to the Acquired Fund in exchange for such Acquired Fund Investments. The
	Acquiring Fund will issue to the Acquired Fund (i) a number of Acquiring Fund Common Shares,
	the aggregate net asset value of which will equal the aggregate net asset value of the Acquired
	Fund Common Shares, determined as set forth below, and (ii) a number of Acquiring Fund APS,
	the aggregate liquidation preference and value of which will equal the aggregate liquidation
	preference and value of the Acquired Fund APS Shares, determined as set forth below.

(b)	The net asset value of the Funds’ Common Shares and the liquidation preference and value of the
	Acquired Fund APS Shares and the Acquiring Fund APS shall be determined as of the Valuation
	Time in accordance with the regular procedures of the investment adviser, and no formula will be
	used to adjust the net asset value so determined of any Fund to take into account differences in
	realized and unrealized gains and losses. Values in all cases shall be determined as of the
	Valuation Time. The value of the Acquired Fund Investments to be transferred to the Acquiring
	Fund shall be determined pursuant to the regular procedures of the investment adviser.

(c)	Such valuation and determination shall be made by the Acquiring Fund in cooperation with the
	Acquired Fund and shall be confirmed in writing by the Acquiring Fund to the Acquired Fund.
	The net asset value per share of the Acquiring Fund Common Shares and the liquidation
	preference and value per share of the Acquiring Fund APS shall be determined in accordance
	with such procedures and the Acquiring Fund shall certify the computations involved. For
	purposes of determining the net asset value of each Acquired Fund Common Share and Acquiring
	Fund Common Share, the value of the securities held by the applicable Fund, plus any cash or
	other assets (including interest accrued but not yet received), minus all liabilities (including
	accrued expenses) and the aggregate liquidation value of the outstanding shares of Acquired Fund
	APS Shares or Acquiring Fund APS, as the case may be, shall be divided by the total number of
	Acquired Fund Common Shares or Acquiring Fund Common Shares, as the case may be,
	outstanding at such time.

(d)	The Acquiring Fund shall issue to the Acquired Fund Acquiring Fund Common Shares and the
	Acquiring Fund APS, each registered in the name of the Acquired Fund. The Acquired Fund
	shall then distribute the Acquiring Fund Common Shares and the Acquiring Fund APS to the
	holders of Acquired Fund Common Shares and Acquired Fund APS Shares by establishing open
	accounts for each Acquired Fund shareholder on the share ledger records of the Acquiring Fund.
	Certificates representing Acquiring Fund Common Shares and Acquiring Fund APS will not be
	issued to Acquired Fund shareholders. With respect to any Acquired Fund shareholder holding
	certificates evidencing ownership of Acquired Fund Common Shares as of the Closing Date, and
	subject to the Acquiring Fund being informed thereof in writing by the Acquired Fund, the
	Acquiring Fund will not permit such shareholder to receive Acquiring Fund Common Shares or
	Acquiring Fund APS, exchange Acquiring Fund Common Shares or Acquiring Fund APS
	credited to such shareholder’s account for shares of other investment companies managed by the
	Adviser or any of its affiliates, or pledge or redeem such Acquiring Fund Common Shares or
	Acquiring Fund APS, in any case, until notified by the Acquired Fund or its agent that such
	shareholder has surrendered his or her outstanding certificates evidencing ownership of Acquired
	Fund Common Shares or Acquired Fund APS Shares or, in the event of lost certificates, posted
	adequate bond. The Acquired Fund, at its own expense, will request its shareholders to surrender


	their outstanding certificates evidencing ownership of Acquired Fund Common Shares or
	Acquired Fund APS Shares, as the case may be, or post adequate bond therefor.

5.	Payment of Expenses.

(a)	Except as otherwise agreed between the parties, the Acquired Fund will bear its own costs of the
	Reorganization, including those associated with the solicitation of its shareholders, legal costs and
	costs associated with the issuance of Acquiring Fund APS, and the Acquiring Fund will bear its
	own costs of the Reorganization, including legal costs and costs associated with the solicitation of
	its shareholders.

(b)	Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, if for any reason the transactions
	contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated, neither the Acquiring Fund nor the
	Acquired Fund shall be liable to the other for any damages resulting therefrom, including, without
	limitation, consequential damages, except as specifically set forth above.

(c)	Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, costs and expenses will in any event be paid by the party
	directly incurring them if and to the extent that the payment by another party of such costs and
	expenses would result in the disqualification of such party as a “regulated investment company”
	within the meaning of Subchapter M of the Code.

6.	Covenants of the Funds.

(a)	Each Fund covenants to operate its business as presently conducted in the ordinary course of
	business between the date hereof and the Closing Date, it being understood that such ordinary
	course of business will include regular and customary dividends and distributions.

(b)	The Acquired Fund agrees that following the consummation of the Reorganization, it will
	terminate in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and any other
	applicable law, it will not make any distributions of any Acquiring Fund Common Shares or
	Acquiring Fund APS other than to its respective shareholders and without first paying or
	adequately providing for the payment of all of its respective liabilities not assumed by the
	Acquiring Fund, if any, and on and after the Closing Date it shall not conduct any business except
	in connection with its termination.

(c)	The Acquired Fund undertakes that if the Reorganization is consummated, it will file an
	application pursuant to Section 8(f) of the 1940 Act for an order declaring that the Acquired Fund
	has ceased to be a registered investment company.

(d)	The Acquiring Fund will file the N-14 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange
	Commission (the “Commission”) and will use its best efforts to provide that the N-14
	Registration Statement becomes effective as promptly as practicable. Each Fund agrees to
	cooperate fully with the other, and each will furnish to the other the information relating to itself
	to be set forth in the N-14 Registration Statement as required by the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act the
	1940 Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder and the state securities laws.

(e)	The Acquiring Fund has no plan or intention to sell or otherwise dispose of the Acquired Fund
	Investments, except for dispositions made in the ordinary course of business.

(f)	Each of the Funds agrees that by the Closing Date all of its federal and other tax returns and
	reports required to be filed on or before such date shall have been filed and all taxes shown as due


	on said returns either have been paid or adequate liability reserves have been provided for the
	payment of such taxes.

(g)	The intention of the parties is that the transaction contemplated by this Agreement will qualify as
	a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Neither the
	Acquiring Fund nor the Acquired Fund shall take any action or cause any action to be taken
	(including, without limitation, the filing of any tax return) that is inconsistent with such treatment
	or results in the failure of the transaction to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of
	Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. At or prior to the Closing Date, the Acquiring Fund
	and the Acquired Fund will take such action, or cause such action to be taken, as is reasonably
	necessary to enable K&L Gates LLP (“K&L Gates”), special counsel to the Funds, to render the
	tax opinion required herein (including, without limitation, each party’s execution of
	representations reasonably requested by and addressed to K&L Gates).

(h)	In connection with the covenant in subsection (f) above, the Funds agree to cooperate with each
	other in filing any tax return, amended return or claim for refund, determining a liability for taxes
	or a right to a refund of taxes or participating in or conducting any audit or other proceeding in
	respect of taxes. The Acquiring Fund agrees to retain for a period of ten (10) years following the
	Closing Date all returns, schedules and work papers and all material records or other documents
	relating to tax matters of the Acquired Fund for each of such Fund’s taxable period first ending
	after the Closing Date and for all prior taxable periods.

(i)	After the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund shall prepare, or cause its agents to prepare, any
	federal, state or local tax returns required to be filed by such fund with respect to its final taxable
	year ending with its complete liquidation and for any prior periods or taxable years and further
	shall cause such tax returns to be duly filed with the appropriate taxing authorities.
	Notwithstanding the aforementioned provisions of this subsection, any expenses incurred by the
	Acquired Fund (other than for payment of taxes) in connection with the preparation and filing of
	said tax returns after the Closing Date shall be borne by such Fund.

(j)	The Acquired Fund agrees to mail to its shareholders of record entitled to vote at the meeting of
	shareholders at which action is to be considered regarding this Agreement, in sufficient time to
	comply with requirements as to notice thereof, a combined proxy statement and prospectus which
	complies in all material respects with the applicable provisions of Section 14(a) of the 1934 Act
	and Section 20(a) of the 1940 Act, and the rules and regulations, respectively, thereunder.

(k)	Following the consummation of the Reorganization, the Acquiring Fund will continue its
	business as a diversified, closed-end management investment company registered under the 1940
	Act.

7.	Closing Date.

(a)	Delivery of the Acquired Fund Investments, and of the Acquiring Fund Common Shares and
	Acquiring Fund APS to be issued as provided in this Agreement, shall be made at such place and
	time as the Funds shall mutually agree on the next full business day following the Valuation
	Time, or at such other time and date agreed to by the Funds, the date and time upon which such
	delivery is to take place being referred to herein as the “Closing Date.” To the extent that any
	Acquired Fund Investments, for any reason, are not transferable on the Closing Date, the
	Acquired Fund shall cause such Acquired Fund Investments to be transferred to the Acquiring
	Fund’s account with its custodian at the earliest practicable date thereafter.


(b)	The Acquired Fund will deliver to the Acquiring Fund on the Closing Date confirmation or other
	adequate evidence as to the tax basis of the Acquired Fund Investments delivered to the
	Acquiring Fund hereunder.

(c)	As soon as practicable after the close of business on the Closing Date, the Acquired Fund shall
	deliver to the Acquiring Fund a list of the names and addresses of all of the shareholders of record
	of the Acquired Fund on the Closing Date and the number of Acquired Fund Common Shares and
	Acquired Fund APS Shares owned by each such shareholder, certified to the best of its
	knowledge and belief by the transfer agent for the Acquired Fund or by its President.

	by the Board of Trustees of the Acquired Fund and by the affirmative vote of the holders of a
	majority (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the outstanding Acquired Fund Common Shares and of
	the outstanding Acquired Fund APS Shares, voting together as a single class; and the Acquired
	Fund shall have delivered to the Acquiring Fund a copy of the resolution approving this

	together with a schedule of such Fund’s investments, all as of the Valuation Time, certified on the
	Acquiring Fund’s behalf by its President (or any Vice President) or its Treasurer, and a certificate
	signed by the Fund’s President (or any Vice President) and its Treasurer, dated as of the Closing
	Date, certifying that as of the Valuation Time and as of the Closing Date there has been no
	material adverse change in the financial position of the Acquiring Fund since the date of such
	Fund’s most recent Annual or Semiannual Report, as applicable, other than changes in its
	portfolio securities since that date or changes in the market value of its portfolio securities.

(c)	That the Acquiring Fund shall have furnished to the Acquired Fund a certificate signed by the
	Acquiring Fund’s President (or any Vice President) or its Treasurer, dated as of the Closing Date,
	certifying that, as of the Valuation Time and as of the Closing Date, all representations and
	warranties of the Acquiring Fund made in this Agreement are true and correct in all material
	respects with the same effect as if made at and as of such dates, and that the Acquiring Fund has
	complied with all of the agreements and satisfied all of the conditions on its part to be performed
	or satisfied at or prior to each of such dates.

(d)	That there shall not be any material litigation pending with respect to the matters contemplated by
	this Agreement.

(e)	The Acquired Fund shall have received the opinion of K&L Gates, counsel for the Acquiring

	to the effect that:

		organization;


	(ii)	the Acquiring Fund is registered as a closed-end, management investment company under
		the 1940 Act;

	(iii)	this Agreement and the Reorganization provided for herein and the execution of this
		Agreement have been duly authorized and approved by all requisite action of the
		Acquiring Fund, and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
		Acquiring Fund and (assuming this Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of the
		other party hereto) is a valid and binding obligation of the Acquiring Fund;

	(iv)	neither the execution or delivery by the Acquiring Fund of this Agreement nor the

		commonly known as a “Massachusetts business trust.” Under Massachusetts’s law,
		shareholders could, under certain circumstances, be held personally liable for the
		obligations of the Acquiring Fund; and

	(vi)	to their knowledge and subject to the qualifications set forth below, the execution and
		delivery by the Acquiring Fund of this Agreement and the consummation of the

		qualification or order of, or filing with, any court or governmental agency or body
		(except such as have been obtained). Counsel need express no opinion, however, as to
		any such consent, approval, authorization, registration, qualification, order or filing
		which may be required as a result of the involvement of other parties to this Agreement in
		the transactions herein contemplated because of their legal or regulatory status or because
		of any other facts specifically pertaining to them.

	Revenue Code.

(g)	That all proceedings taken by each of the Funds and its counsel in connection with the

	Acquiring Fund, be contemplated by the SEC.

		qualification or order of, or filing with, any court or governmental agency or body
		(except such as have been obtained under the 1933 Act, 1934 Act, the 1940 Act or the
		rules and regulations thereunder). Counsel need express no opinion, however, as to any
		such consent, approval, authorization, registration, qualification, order or filing which

	by such rating agency to the existing Acquiring Fund APS, and (ii) the Acquiring Fund APS to be
	issued pursuant to the Reorganization will carry the same ratings as the existing Acquiring Fund
	APS.

10.	Termination, Postponement, Amendment and Waivers.

(a)	Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement may be
	terminated and the Reorganization abandoned at any time (whether before or after adoption


	thereof by the shareholders of the Fund) prior to the Closing Date, or the Closing Date may be

	Trustees of the Acquired Fund if any condition of the Acquired Fund’s obligations set forth in
	Section 8 of this Agreement has not been fulfilled or waived by such Board, or (iii) by the Board
	of Trustees of the Acquiring Fund if any condition of the Acquiring Fund’s obligations set forth

	parties hereto may, by written agreement and without shareholder approval, amend any of the
	provisions of this Agreement; and (ii) either party may waive without such approval any default
	by the other party or the failure to satisfy any of the conditions to its obligations (such waiver to
	be in writing); provided, however, that following shareholder approval, no such amendment may
	have the effect of changing the provisions for determining the number of Acquiring Fund
	Common Shares or Acquiring Fund APS to be issued to the Acquired Fund’s shareholders under
	this Agreement to the detriment of such shareholders without their further approval. The failure
	of a party hereto to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be
	construed to be a waiver of any such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of this
	Agreement or any part hereof or the right of any party thereafter to enforce each and every such
	provision. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to be a waiver of any other or
	subsequent breach.

(e)	The respective representations and warranties contained in Sections 1 and 2 of this Agreement
	shall expire with, and be terminated by, the consummation of the Reorganization, and neither
	Fund nor any of its officers, trustees, agents or shareholders shall have any liability with respect
	to such representations or warranties after the Closing Date. This provision shall not protect any
	officer, trustee, agent or shareholder of either Fund against any liability to the entity for which
	that officer, trustee, agent or shareholder so acts or to its shareholders, to which that officer,
	trustee, agent or shareholder otherwise would be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
	faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties in the conduct of such office.

(f)	If any order or orders of the Commission with respect to this Agreement shall be issued prior to
	the Closing Date and shall impose any terms or conditions which are determined by action of the
	Boards of Trustees of the Funds to be acceptable, such terms and conditions shall be binding as if
	a part of this Agreement without further vote or approval of the shareholders of the Funds unless
	such terms and conditions shall result in a change in the method of computing the number of
	Acquiring Fund Common Shares or Acquiring Fund APS to be issued to the Acquired Fund, in
	which event, unless such terms and conditions shall have been included in the proxy solicitation
	materials furnished to the shareholders of the Funds prior to the meetings at which the
	Reorganization shall have been approved, this Agreement shall not be consummated and shall
	terminate unless the Funds promptly shall call a special meeting of shareholders at which such
	conditions so imposed shall be submitted for approval.


11.	Other Matters.

	certificates delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to have been material and relied
	upon by each of the parties, notwithstanding any investigation made by them or on their behalf.

	parties regarding the Reorganization, constitutes the only understanding with respect to the
	Reorganization and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of The
	Commonwealth of Massachusetts applicable to agreements made and to be performed in said
	state.

(d)	It is expressly agreed that the obligations of the Acquiring Fund and the Acquired Fund hereunder
	shall not be binding upon any of their respective trustees, shareholders, nominees, officers,
	agents, or employees personally, but shall bind only the trust property of the respective Fund as
	provided in such Fund’s Declaration of Trust. A copy of the Declaration of Trust of each of the
	Acquiring Fund and the Acquired Fund is on file with the Secretary of State of The
	Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement has been
	authorized by the trustees of each Fund and signed by authorized officers of each Fund, acting as
	such, and neither such authorization by such trustees, nor such execution and delivery by such
	officers shall be deemed to have been made by any of them individually or to impose any liability
	on any of them personally, but shall bind only the trust property of each Fund as provided in such
	Fund’s Declaration of Trust.

(e)	It is further expressly agreed that this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and
	governed by the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

(f)	This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when executed
	and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original but all such counterparts together shall constitute
