**********
The correction described below relates to the Proxy Statement furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the Joint Special Meeting of Shareholders to be held on February 18, 2021. Capitalized terms herein have the meanings provided in the Proxy Statement.
Appendix D – Investment Advisory Agreements: Compensation
As stated in the Proxy Statement, the investment advisory fee rates of the Funds will not change as a result of the Transaction. The contractual advisory fee rate under a Fund’s proposed investment advisory agreement will remain the same as the contractual advisory fee rate under that Fund’s existing investment advisory agreement. With respect to the New IAA Series, no increase in advisory fees will result from the proposed investment advisory agreements because Eaton Vance will not charge an advisory fee with respect to New IAA Series assets invested in an underlying Portfolio or other investment company for which Eaton Vance or its affiliates serve as an investment adviser and receive an advisory fee.
The investment advisory fee information included in Appendix D for Eaton Vance Short Duration Government Income Fund contained a typographical error in the column titled “Advisory Fee Schedule (annual asset rate)” at the $5 billion and over breakpoint. Accordingly, the following replaces in its entirety the row for Eaton Vance Short Duration Government Income Fund under “Appendix D – Investment Advisory Agreements: Compensation – Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust”:
| Fund/Portfolio | Adviser | Advisory Fee Schedule (annual asset rate) 1 | Advisory Fee Schedule (daily income rate)1 | Amount of Advisory Fee Paid in the Most Recent Fiscal Year (after applicable waivers and reimbursements, if any) ($) | Fiscal Year End | Annual Rate at which Advisory Fees were Paid | Assets on Which Advisory Fee is Charged |
| Eaton Vance Short Duration Government Income Fund | Boston Management and Research | Up to $1 billion: 0.500% $1 billion but less than $2.5 billion: 0.475% $2.5 billion but less than $5 billion: 0.455% $5 billion and over: 0.440% | None | $25,600,809 | 10/31 | 0.46% | Fees are based on average daily net assets.

1 Including incorporation of existing fee reduction agreements where applicable.
