[Eaton Vance Telephone Script for Automated Voicemail - The Importance of Voting Your Proxy]
Hello. I’m Tom Faust, Chairman and CEO of Eaton Vance.
I’d like to talk about the importance of voting the fund shareholder proxy materials you receive.
These votes cover important matters about the fund. As a shareholder, you have the right to be heard.
If sufficient shareholders to constitute a quorum don’t vote, then we must actively solicit additional votes through follow-up mailings and phone calls.
The cost of a lengthy proxy solicitation can be substantial, and is typically an expense of the fund.
So ultimately it is you, the shareholder, who pays for it.
That’s why it’s so important to vote, and to vote early.
So please – if you have not done so already cast your vote today.
Thank you.
