Fund Summary

Investment Objective

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund’s (formerly Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund) objective is to seek long-term, after-tax returns for its shareholders.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund.


Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment)

Maximum Sales Charge (Load) (as a percentage of offering price)	None
Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (Load) (as a percentage of the lower of net asset value at purchase or redemption)	None
Redemption Fee (as a percentage of exchange price or amount redeemed or exchanged)	2.00%

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

Management Fees	0.45%
Other Expenses	0.50%
Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses⁽¹⁾	0.01%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	0.96%

(1)	These fees and expenses are not included in the Financial Highlights table. Accordingly, Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses do not correlate to the ratio of expenses to average daily net assets indicated in the Financial Highlights table in this Prospectus.

Example. This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:


	Expenses with Redemption				Expenses without Redemption

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years

Class I shares	$306	$531	$775	$1,475	$98	$306	$531	$1,178

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 11% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities of companies located in emerging market countries, which are those considered to be developing (the "80% Policy"). A company will be considered to be located in an emerging market country if it is domiciled in or derives more than 50% of its revenues or profits from emerging market countries. Emerging market countries are generally countries not considered to be developed market countries, and therefore not included in the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) World Index. Securities acquired by the Fund are typically listed on stock exchanges in emerging market countries, but also may include securities traded in markets outside these countries, including securities trading in the form of depositary receipts. For purposes of the Fund’s 80% Policy, depositary receipts are considered as being located in emerging markets if the company is domiciled in or derives more than 50% of its revenues or profits from emerging market countries. The Fund invests in companies with a broad range of market capitalizations including smaller companies. The Fund is ordinarily exposed to over 30 emerging market countries at all times and typically invests in more than 500 stocks. More than 25% of the Fund’s total assets may be denominated in any single currency. The Fund may invest directly in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest in other pooled investment ^vehicles and may lend its securities.

The Fund may engage in derivative transactions as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities or currencies or to attempt to mitigate the adverse effects of foreign currency fluctuations. Such transactions may include foreign currency exchange contracts, options and equity-linked securities (such as participation notes, equity swaps and zero strike calls and warrants).

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund

Prospectus dated November 1, 2010

In managing the Fund, the portfolio managers seek to balance investment considerations and tax considerations and taking into account the taxes payable by shareholders in connection with distributions of investment income and net realized gains. The Fund seeks to minimize income distributions and distributions of realized short-term gains that are taxed as ordinary income, as well as distributions of realized long-term gains (taxed as long-term capital gains). The Fund seeks to employ a top-down, disciplined and structured investment process that emphasizes broad exposure and diversification among emerging market countries, economic sectors and issuers. This strategy utilizes targeted allocation and periodic rebalancing to take advantage of certain quantitative and behavioral characteristics of emerging markets identified by the portfolio managers. The portfolio managers select and allocate across countries based on factors such as size, liquidity, level of economic development, local economic diversification, and perceived risk and potential for growth. The Fund maintains a bias to broad inclusion; that is, the Fund intends to allocate its portfolio holdings to more emerging market countries rather than fewer emerging market countries. Relative to capitalization-weighted country indexes, individual country allocation targets emphasize the less represented emerging market countries. The Fund’s country allocations are rebalanced to their target weights if they exceed a pre-determined overweight. This has the effect of reducing exposure to countries with strong relative performance and increasing exposure to countries which have underperformed. Within each country, the Fund seeks to maintain exposure across key economic sectors, such as industrial/technology, consumer, utilities, basic industry/resource and financial. Relative to capitalization-weighted country indexes, the portfolio managers target weights to these sectors to emphasize the less represented sectors. The portfolio managers select individual securities as representatives of their economic sectors and generally weight them by their relative capitalization within that sector.

Principal Risks

Equity Investing Risk. The Fund’s shares are sensitive to stock market volatility and the stocks in which the Fund invests may be more volatile than the stock market as a whole. The prices of stocks may decline in response to conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations, as well as issuer or sector specific events. Market conditions may affect certain types of stocks to a greater extent than other types of stocks. If the stock market declines, the value of Fund shares will also likely decline and although stock values can rebound, there is no assurance that values will return to previous levels.

Tax-Managed Investing Risk. Market conditions may limit the Fund’s ability to generate tax losses or to generate dividend income taxed at favorable tax rates. The Fund’s tax-managed strategy may cause the Fund to hold a security in order to achieve more favorable tax-treatment or to sell a security in order to create tax losses. The Fund’s ability to utilize various tax-management techniques may be curtailed or eliminated in the future by tax legislation or regulation. Tax code provisions applicable to tax-favored dividends are effective for taxable years beginning on or before December 31, 2010. Although the Fund expects that a smaller portion of its total return will consist of taxable distributions to shareholders as compared to equity mutual funds that are managed without regard to tax considerations, there can be no assurance about the size of taxable distributions to shareholders.

Foreign and Emerging Market Investment Risk. Because the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in foreign instruments, the value of Fund shares can be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates and political and economic developments abroad. In emerging or less developed countries, these risks can be more significant. Investment markets in emerging market countries are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than the major markets in developed countries, and as a result, Fund share values may be more volatile. Emerging market countries may have relatively unstable governments and economies. Emerging market investments often are subject to speculative trading, which typically contributes to volatility. Trading in foreign and emerging markets typically involves higher expense than trading in the United States. The Fund may have difficulties enforcing its legal or contractual rights in a foreign country. Depositary receipts are subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities including political and economic risks.

Small Companies Risk. Small and emerging companies are generally subject to greater price fluctuations, limited liquidity, higher transaction costs and higher investment risk. Small and emerging companies may have limited product lines, markets or financial resources, and they may be dependent on a limited management group, or lack substantial capital reserves or an established performance record. There is generally less publicly available information about such companies than for larger, more established companies. Stocks of these companies frequently have lower trading volumes, making them more volatile and potentially more difficult to value.

Derivatives Risk. The use of derivatives can lead to losses because of adverse movements in the price or value of the asset, index, rate or instrument underlying a derivative, due to failure of a counterparty or due to tax or regulatory constraints. Derivatives may create economic leverage in the Fund, which magnifies the Fund’s exposure to the underlying investment. Derivatives may be more significant when they are used to enhance return or as a substitute for a position or security, rather than solely to hedge the risk of a position or security held by the Fund. Derivatives for hedging purposes may not reduce risk if they are not sufficiently correlated to the position being hedged. A decision as to whether, when and how to use derivatives involves the exercise of specialized skill and judgment, and even a well-conceived transaction may be unsuccessful to some degree because of market behavior or unexpected events. Derivative instruments may be difficult to value, may be illiquid, and may be subject to wide swings in valuation caused by changes in the value of the underlying instrument. The loss on derivative transactions may substantially exceed the initial investment.

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund

Prospectus dated November 1, 2010

Securities Lending Risk. Securities lending involves possible delay in recovery of the securities or possible loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. As a result, the value of Fund shares may fall and there may be a delay in recovering the loaned securities. The value of Fund shares could also fall if a loan is called and the Fund is required to liquidate reinvested collateral at a loss or if the investment adviser is unable to reinvest cash collateral at rates which exceed the costs involved.

Risks Associated with Quantitative Management. The Fund relies on its investment adviser to achieve its investment objective. The investment adviser uses quantitative investment techniques and analyses in making investment decisions for the Fund, but there can be no assurance that these will achieve the desired results. The Fund’s strategy is highly dependent on a quantitatively-based country weighting process, a structured sector allocation and a proprietary disciplined rebalancing model that generally has not been independently tested or otherwise reviewed. Securities and exposures selected using this proprietary strategy may be weighted differently than in capitalization-weighted indices and therefore may differ in relative contribution to performance.

General Fund Investing Risks. The Fund is not a complete investment program and you may lose money by investing in the Fund. All investments carry a certain amount of risk and there is no guarantee that the Fund will be able to achieve its investment objective. In general, the Annual Fund Operating Expenses expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets will change as Fund assets increase and decrease, and the Fund’s Annual Fund Operating Expenses may differ in the future. Purchase and redemption activities by Fund shareholders may impact the management of the Fund and its ability to achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit in a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency, entity or person. You may lose money by investing in the Fund.

Performance

The following bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the Fund’s performance from year to year and how the Fund’s average annual returns over time compare with those of a broad-based securities market index. The Fund’s performance shown below includes the performance of its predecessor registered investment company. On February 6, 2004, the Fund merged with PIMCO PPA Tax-Efficient Structured Emerging Markets Fund (the "Predecessor Fund"), which was a series of PIMCO Funds: Multi-Manager Series, and assumed its operating history and performance record. The performance for any period prior to February 6, 2004 is that of the Predecessor Fund. The returns in the bar chart do not reflect any purchase or redemption fees. If these fees were reflected, returns would be lower. Past performance (both before and after taxes) is no guarantee of future results. Updated Fund performance information can be obtained by visiting www.eatonvance.com.

During the ten years ended December 31, 2009, the highest quarterly total return was 22.57% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, and the lowest quarterly total return was –16.56% for the quarter ended September 30, 2001. The Fund’s year-to-date total return through the end of the most recent calendar quarter (December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010) was 15.24%.


Average Annual Total Return as of December 31, 2009	One Year	Five Years	Ten Years

Return Before Taxes	64.87%	15.93%	12.42%
Return After Taxes on Distributions	64.88%	15.70%	11.87%
Return After Taxes on Distributions and the Sale of Fund Shares	42.76%	14.17%	10.89%
Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) Emerging Markets Index (reflects net dividends, which reflect the deduction of withholding taxes)	78.51%	15.51%	9.78%

These returns reflect the maximum 2% redemption fee. (Source for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index: Lipper, Inc.)

After-tax returns are calculated using the highest historical individual federal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on a shareholder’s tax situation and actual characterization of distributions, and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to shareholders who hold shares in tax-deferred accounts or to shares held by non-taxable entities. Return After Taxes on Distributions for a period may be the same as Return Before Taxes for that period because no taxable distributions were made during that period. Also, Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares for a period may be greater than or equal to Return After Taxes on Distributions for the same period because of losses realized on the sale of Fund shares.

Investment Objective & Principal Policies and Risks

A statement of the investment objective and principal investment policies and risks of the Fund is set forth above in Fund Summary. Set forth below is additional information about such policies and risks.

Foreign and Emerging Market Investments. Investments in foreign issuers could be affected by factors not present in the United States, including expropriation, armed conflict, confiscatory taxation, lack of uniform accounting and auditing standards, less publicly available financial and other information, and potential difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations. Because foreign issuers may not be subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standard practices and requirements and regulatory measures comparable to those in the U.S., there may be less publicly available information about such foreign issuers. Settlements of securities transactions in foreign countries are subject to risk of loss, may be delayed and are generally less frequent than in the U.S., which could affect the liquidity of the Fund’s assets. As an alternative to holding foreign-traded investments, the Fund may invest in dollar-denominated investments of foreign companies that trade on U.S. exchanges or in the U.S. over-the-counter market (including depositary receipts which evidence ownership in underlying foreign investments).

The foregoing risks of foreign investing can be more significant in less developed countries characterized as emerging market countries, which may offer higher potential for gains and losses than investments in the developed markets of the world. Political and economic structures in emerging market countries generally lack the social, political and economic stability of developed countries, which may affect the value of the Fund’s investments in these countries and also the ability of the Fund to access markets in such countries. Governmental actions can have a significant effect on the economic conditions in emerging market countries, which also may adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments. The laws of emerging market countries relating to limited liability of corporate shareholders, fiduciary duties of officers and directors, and the bankruptcy of state enterprises are generally less well developed than or different from such laws in the United States. It may be more difficult to obtain a judgment in the courts of these countries than it is in the United States. Disruptions due to work stoppages and trading improprieties in foreign securities markets have caused such markets to close. If extended closings were to occur in stock markets where the Fund is heavily invested, the Fund’s ability to redeem Fund shares could become impaired. In such circumstances, the Fund may have to sell more liquid securities than it would otherwise choose to sell. Emerging market countries are also subject to speculative trading which contributes to their volatility.

Tax-Managed Investing. Most mutual funds focus on pre-tax returns and largely ignore shareholder tax considerations. By contrast, the Fund approaches its investments from the perspective of a taxpaying shareholder. Taxes on investment are minimized by investing primarily in lower-yielding securities and/or stocks that pay dividends that qualify for favorable federal tax treatment. As a result of tax laws enacted in May 2003, qualified dividend income received by individual shareholders is taxed at rates equivalent to the federal long-term capital gains rate (currently at a maximum of 15%), rather than the tax rate applicable to ordinary income (currently at a maximum of 35%), provided certain holding periods and other conditions are satisfied. Qualified dividend income generally includes dividends from domestic corporations and dividends from foreign corporations that meet certain specified criteria. The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in stocks and other securities that generate income taxable at ordinary income rates. For any year, so long as the Fund’s fully taxable ordinary income and net realized short-term gains are offset by expenses of that Fund, all of that Fund’s income distributions would be characterized as tax-favored dividends. The provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to tax-favored dividends are effective for taxable years beginning on or before December 31, 2010. Thereafter, dividends will be taxable as ordinary income unless further legislative action is taken. Taxes on realized capital gains are minimized by minimizing the sale of securities’ holdings with large accumulated gains and avoiding net realized short-term capital gains. Other techniques may include selecting the most tax-favored share lots when selling appreciated stocks and when appropriate, selling stocks trading below cost to realize losses. Selective use of tax-advantaged hedging techniques as an alternative to taxable sales may also be used.

Foreign Currencies. The value of foreign assets and currencies as measured in U.S. dollars may be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes in foreign currency rates and exchange control regulations, application of foreign tax laws (including withholding tax), governmental administration of economic or monetary policies (in this country or abroad), and relations between nations and trading. Foreign currencies also are subject to settlement, custodial and other operational risks. Currency exchange rates can be affected unpredictably by intervention by U.S. or foreign governments or central banks, or the failure to intervene, or by currency controls or political developments in the United States or abroad. Costs are incurred in connection with conversions between currencies. The Fund may engage in spot transactions and forward foreign currency exchange contracts (collectively, "Currency Instruments") to hedge against the decline in the value of currencies in which its portfolio holdings are denominated against the U.S. dollar or to enhance returns. Use of Currency Instruments may involve substantial currency risk and may also involve counterparty, leverage or liquidity risk.

Derivatives. The Fund may enter into derivatives transactions with respect to any security or other instrument in which it is permitted to invest or any related security, instrument, index or economic indicator ("reference instruments"). Derivatives are financial instruments the value of which is derived from the underlying reference instrument. Derivatives typically allow the Fund

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund

Prospectus dated November 1, 2010

to increase or decrease the level of risk to which the Fund is exposed more quickly and efficiently than transactions in other types of instruments. The Fund incurs costs in connection with opening and closing derivatives positions. The Fund may engage in the derivative transactions set forth below, as well as in other derivative transactions with substantially similar characteristics and risks.

Options on Securities. The Fund may engage in transactions in exchange traded and over-the-counter (“OTC”) options. There are several risks associated with transactions in options such as imperfect correlation, counterparty risk and an insufficient liquid secondary market for particular options. The Fund may purchase call options which give the Fund the right to buy, and obligates the seller to sell, the underlying instrument at the exercise price at any time during the option period.

OTC options involve risk that the issuer or counterparty will fail to perform its contractual obligations. Participants in these markets are typically not subject to the same credit evaluation and regulatory oversight as are members of “exchange based” markets. By engaging in option transactions in these markets, the Fund may take a credit risk with regard to parties with which it trades and also may bear the risk of settlement default.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are individually negotiated and privately traded so they are dependent upon the creditworthiness of the counterparty. They are subject to the risk of political and economic factors applicable to the countries issuing the underlying currencies. Furthermore, unlike trading in most other types of instruments, there is no systematic reporting of last sale information with respect to the foreign currencies underlying forwards. As a result, available information may not be complete.

Equity Swaps. Equity swaps involve the exchange by the Fund with another party of their respective returns as calculated on a notional amount of an equity index (such as the S&P 500 Index), basket of equity securities, or individual equity security. The success of swap agreements is dependent on the investment adviser’s ability to predict correctly whether certain types of investments are likely to produce greater returns than other investments. Other risks include liquidity and counterparty risk.

Equity-Linked Securities. Equity-linked securities are primarily used as an alternative means to more efficiently and effectively access the securities markets of emerging market countries and may also be known as participation notes, equity swaps, and zero strike calls and warrants. The Fund deposits an amount of cash with its custodian (or broker, if legally permitted) in an amount near or equal to the selling price of the underlying security in exchange for an equity-linked security. Upon sale, the Fund receives cash from the broker or custodian equal to the value of the underlying security. Aside from market risk of the underlying security, there is the risk of default by the other party to the transaction. In the event of insolvency of the other party, the Fund might be unable to obtain its expected benefit. In addition, while the Fund will seek to enter into such transactions only with parties which are capable of entering into closing transactions with the Fund, there can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to close out such a transaction with the other party or obtain an offsetting position with any other party, at any time prior to the end of the term of the underlying agreement. This may impair the Fund’s ability to enter into other transactions at a time when doing so might be advantageous.

Pooled Investment Vehicles. Subject to applicable limitations, the Fund may invest in pooled investment vehicles, including open and closed-end investment companies unaffiliated with the investment adviser and exchange-traded funds. The market for common shares of closed-end investment companies, which are generally traded on an exchange, is affected by the demand for those securities regardless of the value of the fund’s underlying portfolio assets. The Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any management fees paid by pooled investment vehicles in which it invests. To the extent they exceed 0.01%, the costs associated with such investments will be reflected in Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses in the Annual Fund Operating Expenses in Fund Summary.

Illiquid Securities. The Fund may not invest more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities, which may be difficult to value properly and may involve greater risks than liquid securities. Illiquid securities include those legally restricted as to resale (such as those issued in private placements), and may include commercial paper issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A thereunder. Certain Section 4(2) and Rule 144A securities may be treated as liquid securities if the investment adviser determines that such treatment is warranted. Even if determined to be liquid, holdings of these securities may increase the level of Fund illiquidity if eligible buyers become uninterested in purchasing them.

Securities Lending. The Fund may seek to earn income by lending portfolio securities to broker-dealers or other institutional borrowers. As with other extensions of credit, there are risks of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in the securities loaned if the borrower of the securities fails financially. Loans will only be made to firms that have been approved by the investment adviser and the investment adviser or the securities lending agent will periodically monitor the financial condition of such organizations while any loans are outstanding. In addition, loans will only be made when the investment adviser believes the expected returns, net of expenses, justify the attendant risk. Securities loans currently are required to be secured continuously by collateral in cash, cash equivalents (such as money market instruments) or other liquid securities held by the custodian and maintained in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned. Distributions of any income realized from securities loans will be taxable as ordinary income. The Fund may lend up to one-third of the value of its total assets (including borrowings) or such other amount as is permitted under relevant law.

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund

Prospectus dated November 1, 2010

Borrowing. The Fund is authorized to borrow in accordance with applicable regulations, but currently intends to borrow only for temporary purposes (such as to satisfy redemption requests, to remain fully invested in anticipation of expected cash inflows and to settle transactions). The Fund will not purchase additional investment securities while outstanding borrowings exceed 5% of the value of its total assets.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its assets in cash or cash equivalents, including high quality short-term instruments or an affiliated investment vehicle that invests in such instruments.

General. Unless otherwise stated, the Fund’s investment objective and certain other policies may be changed without shareholder approval. Shareholders will receive 60 days’ notice of any material change in the investment objective. The Fund might not use all of the strategies and techniques or invest in all of the types of securities described in this Prospectus or the Statement of Additional Information. While at times the Fund may use alternative investment strategies in an effort to limit its losses, it may choose not to do so.

The Fund’s 80% Policy will not be changed unless shareholders are given at least 60 days’ written advance notice of the change and, for the purpose of such policy, net assets include any assets purchased with borrowings for investment purposes.

The Fund’s investment policies include a provision allowing the Fund to invest (i) all of its investable assets in an open-end management investment company with substantially the same investment objective, policies and restrictions as the Fund; or (ii) in more than one open-end management investment company sponsored by Eaton Vance or its affiliates, provided any such companies have investment objectives, policies and restrictions that are consistent with those of the Fund. Any such company or companies would be advised by the Fund’s investment adviser (or an affiliate) and the Fund would not pay directly any advisory fee with respect to the assets so invested. The Fund may initiate investments in one or more such investment companies at any time without shareholder approval.

Management and Organization

Management. The Fund’s investment adviser is Eaton Vance Management (“Eaton Vance”), with offices at Two International Place, Boston, MA 02110. Eaton Vance has been managing assets since 1924 and managing mutual funds since 1931. Eaton Vance and its subsidiaries currently manage over $180 billion on behalf of mutual funds, institutional clients and individuals.

The investment adviser manages the investments of the Fund. Under its investment advisory agreement with the Fund, Eaton Vance receives a monthly advisory fee equal to 0.45% annually of the average daily net assets of the Fund. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the effective annual rate of investment advisory fees paid to Eaton Vance was 0.45% of its average daily net assets. Pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement, Eaton Vance has delegated the investment management of the Fund to Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC (“Parametric”), a majority-owned affiliate of Eaton Vance Corp., with offices at 1151 Fairview Avenue N., Seattle, WA 98109. Eaton Vance pays Parametric a portion of the advisory fee for sub-advisory services provided to the Fund. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, Eaton Vance paid Parametric sub-advisory fees equivalent to 0.35% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

The Fund’s most recent shareholder report provides information regarding the basis of the Trustees’ approval of the Fund’s investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement.

The Fund is managed by a team of portfolio managers from Parametric, who are primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio. The members of the team are Thomas Seto and David M. Stein. Mr. Seto and Mr. Stein have been portfolio managers of the Fund since March 1, 2007. Mr. Seto has been Vice President and Director of Portfolio Management at Parametric for more than five years. Mr. Stein has been Managing Director and Chief Investment Officer at Parametric for more than five years. They both have managed other Eaton Vance funds since 2005.

The Statement of Additional Information provides additional information about each portfolio manager’s compensation, other accounts managed by each portfolio manager, and each portfolio manager’s ownership of Fund shares.

Eaton Vance serves as the administrator of the Fund, providing the Fund with administrative services and related office facilities. Under its administrative services agreement with the Fund, Eaton Vance receives a monthly administrative services fee equal to 0.50% annually of the average daily net assets of the Fund. Eaton Vance also pays all ordinary operating expenses of the Fund (except administrative services and advisory fees). Pursuant to a sub-administrative services agreement, Eaton Vance has delegated certain administrative services of the Fund to Parametric. Eaton Vance pays Parametric a portion of the administrative services fee for sub-administrative services provided to the Fund. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, Eaton Vance paid Parametric sub-administrative services fees equivalent to 0.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund

Prospectus dated November 1, 2010

Eaton Vance also serves as the sub-transfer agent for the Fund. For the sub-transfer agency services it provides, Eaton Vance receives an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses it incurs in the performance of sub-transfer agency services. This fee is paid to Eaton Vance by the Fund’s transfer agent from the fees the transfer agent receives from the Eaton Vance funds.

Organization. The Fund is a series of Eaton Vance Series Trust II, a Massachusetts business trust. The Fund does not hold annual shareholder meetings but may hold special meetings for matters that require shareholder approval (such as electing or removing trustees, approving management or advisory contracts or changing investment policies that may only be changed with shareholder approval).

Valuing Shares

The Fund values its shares once each day only when the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange") is open for trading (typically Monday through Friday), as of the close of regular trading on the Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m. eastern time). The purchase price of Fund shares is their net asset value. When purchasing or redeeming Fund shares through a financial intermediary, your financial intermediary must receive your order not later than 4:00 p.m. in order for the purchase price or the redemption price to be based on that day’s net asset value per share. It is the financial intermediary’s responsibility to transmit orders promptly. The Fund may accept purchase and redemption orders as of the time of their receipt by certain financial intermediaries (or their designated intermediaries).

The Trustees have adopted procedures for valuing investments and have delegated to the investment adviser the daily valuation of such investments. The investment adviser has delegated daily valuation of the Fund to the sub-adviser. Pursuant to the procedures, exchange-listed securities normally are valued at last sale or closing prices. The sub-adviser may use the fair value of a security if market prices are unavailable or are deemed unreliable, including if events occur after the close of a foreign securities market and before the Fund values its assets that would materially affect net asset value. In addition, for foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the securities held by the Fund. A security that is fair valued may be valued at a price higher or lower than actual market quotations or the value determined by other funds using their own fair valuation procedures. Because foreign securities trade on days when Fund shares are not priced, the value of securities held by the Fund can change on days when Fund shares cannot be redeemed. Eaton Vance has established a Valuation Committee that oversees the valuation of investments.

Purchasing Shares

Purchase orders will be executed at the net asset value next determined after their receipt in proper form (meaning that they are complete and contain all necessary information) by the Fund’s transfer agent. The Fund’s transfer agent or your financial intermediary must receive your purchase in proper form no later than the close of regular trading on the Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) for your purchase to be effected at that day’s net asset value. If you purchase shares through a financial intermediary, that intermediary may charge you a fee for executing the purchase for you. The Fund may suspend the sale of its shares at any time and any purchase order may be refused for any reason. The Fund does not issue share certificates.

Class I shares are offered to clients of financial intermediaries who (i) charge such clients an ongoing fee for advisory, investment, consulting or similar services, or (ii) have entered into an agreement with the principal underwriter to offer Class I shares through a no-load network or platform. Such clients may include individuals, corporations, endowments, foundations and qualified plans (including tax-deferred retirement plans and profit sharing plans). Class I shares are also offered to investment and institutional clients of Eaton Vance and its affiliates and certain persons affiliated with Eaton Vance and certain fund service providers. Your initial investment must be at least $50,000. Subsequent investments of any amount may be made at any time, including through automatic investment each month or quarter from your bank account. You may make automatic investments of $50 or more each month or each quarter from your bank account. You can establish bank automated investing on the account application or by providing written instructions. Please call 1-800-262-1122 Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (eastern time) for further information.

The minimum initial investment is waived for persons affiliated with Eaton Vance, its affiliates and certain Fund service providers (as described in the Statement of Additional Information). The initial minimum investment also is waived for individual accounts of a financial intermediary that charges an ongoing fee for its services or offers Class I shares through a no-load network or platform (in each case, as described above), provided the aggregate value of such accounts invested in Class I shares of the Fund is at least $50,000 (or is anticipated by the principal underwriter to reach $50,000) and for corporations, endowments, foundations and qualified plans with assets of at least $100 million.

Class I shares may be purchased through a financial intermediary, by mailing an account application form to the transfer agent (see back cover for address), or by requesting your bank to transmit immediately available funds (Federal Funds) by wire. To make an initial investment by wire, you must complete an account application and telephone the Shareholder Services Department at

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund

Prospectus dated November 1, 2010

1-800-262-1122 to be assigned an account number. You may request a current account application by calling 1-800-262-1122 Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (eastern time). The Shareholder Services Department must be advised by telephone of each additional investment by wire.

Restrictions on Excessive Trading and Market Timing. The Fund is not intended for excessive trading or market timing. Market timers seek to profit by rapidly switching money into a fund when they expect the share price of the fund to rise and taking money out of the fund when they expect those prices to fall. By realizing profits through short-term trading, shareholders that engage in rapid purchases and sales or exchanges of a fund’s shares may dilute the value of shares held by long-term shareholders. Volatility resulting from excessive purchases and sales or exchanges of fund shares, especially involving large dollar amounts, may disrupt efficient portfolio management. In particular, excessive purchases and sales or exchanges of a fund’s shares may cause a fund to have difficulty implementing its investment strategies, may force the fund to sell portfolio securities at inopportune times to raise cash or may cause increased expenses (such as increased brokerage costs, realization of taxable capital gains without attaining any investment advantage or increased administrative costs).

A fund that invests all or a portion of its assets in foreign securities may be susceptible to a time zone arbitrage strategy in which shareholders attempt to take advantage of Fund share prices that may not reflect developments in a foreign securities market that occur after the close of such market but prior to the pricing of Fund shares. In addition, a fund that invests in securities that are, among other things, thinly traded, traded infrequently or relatively illiquid (including restricted securities, emerging market securities and certain small-cap companies) is susceptible to the risk that the current market price for such securities may not accurately reflect current market values. A shareholder may seek to engage in short-term trading to take advantage of these pricing differences (commonly referred to as “price arbitrage”). The investment adviser and sub-adviser are authorized to use the fair value of a security if prices are unavailable or are deemed unreliable (see “Valuing Shares”). The use of fair value pricing, the redemption fee and the restrictions on excessive trading and market timing described below are intended to reduce a shareholder’s ability to engage in price or time zone arbitrage to the detriment of the Fund.

The Boards of Trustees of the Eaton Vance funds have adopted policies to discourage short-term trading and market timing and to seek to minimize their potentially detrimental effects. Pursuant to these policies, if an investor (through one or more accounts) makes more than one round-trip exchange (exchanging from one fund to another fund and back again) within 90 days, it will be deemed to constitute market timing or excessive trading. Under the policies, the Fund or its principal underwriter will reject or cancel a purchase order, suspend or terminate the exchange privilege or terminate the ability of an investor to invest in the Eaton Vance funds if the Fund or the principal underwriter determines that a proposed transaction involves market timing or excessive trading that it believes is likely to be detrimental to the Fund. The Fund and its principal underwriter use reasonable efforts to detect market timing and excessive trading activity, but they cannot ensure that they will be able to identify all cases of market timing and excessive trading. The Fund or its principal underwriter may also reject or cancel any purchase order (including an exchange) from an investor or group of investors for any other reason. Decisions to reject or cancel purchase orders (including exchanges) in the Fund are inherently subjective and will be made in a manner believed to be in the best interest of a Fund’s shareholders. No Eaton Vance fund has any arrangement to permit market timing.

The following fund share transactions generally are exempt from the market timing and excessive trading policy described above because the Fund and the principal underwriter believe they generally do not raise market timing or excessive trading concerns:

transactions made pursuant to a systematic purchase plan or as the result of automatic reinvestment of dividends or distributions, or initiated by the Fund (e.g., for failure to meet applicable account minimums);
transactions made by participants in employer sponsored retirement plans involving participant payroll or employer contributions or loan repayments, redemptions as part of plan terminations or at the direction of the plan, mandatory retirement distributions, or rollovers;
transactions made by asset allocation and wrap programs where the adviser to the program directs transactions in the accounts participating in the program in concert with changes in a model portfolio; or
transactions in shares of Eaton Vance U.S. Government Money Market Fund and Eaton Vance Tax Free Reserves.

It may be difficult for the Fund or the principal underwriter to identify market timing or excessive trading in omnibus accounts traded through financial intermediaries. The Fund and the principal underwriter have provided guidance to financial intermediaries (such as banks, broker-dealers, insurance companies and retirement administrators) concerning the application of the Eaton Vance funds’ market timing and excessive trading policies to Fund shares held in omnibus accounts maintained and administered by such intermediaries, including guidance concerning situations where market timing or excessive trading is considered to be detrimental to the Fund. The Fund or its principal underwriter may rely on a financial intermediary’s policy to restrict market timing and excessive trading if it believes that policy is likely to prevent market timing that is likely to be detrimental to the Fund. Such policy may be more or less restrictive than the Fund’s policy. Although the Fund or the principal underwriter reviews trading activity at the omnibus account level for activity that indicates potential market timing or excessive trading activity, the Fund and the principal

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund

Prospectus dated November 1, 2010

underwriter typically will not request or receive individual account data unless suspicious trading activity is identified. The Fund and the principal underwriter generally rely on financial intermediaries to monitor trading activity in omnibus accounts in good faith in accordance with their own or Fund policies. The Fund and the principal underwriter cannot ensure that these financial intermediaries will in all cases apply the policies of the Fund or their own policies, as the case may be, to accounts under their control.

Payments to Financial Intermediaries. The principal underwriter, out of its own resources, may make cash payments to certain financial intermediaries who provide marketing support, transaction processing and/or administrative services and, in some cases, include some or all Eaton Vance funds in preferred or specialized selling programs. Payments made by the principal underwriter to a financial intermediary may be significant and are typically in the form of fees based on Fund sales, assets, transactions processed and/or accounts attributable to that financial intermediary. Financial intermediaries also may receive amounts from the principal underwriter in connection with educational or due diligence meetings that include information concerning Eaton Vance funds. The principal underwriter may pay or allow other promotional incentives or payments to financial intermediaries to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations.

Certain financial intermediaries that maintain fund accounts for the benefit of their customers provide sub-accounting, recordkeeping and/or administrative services to the Eaton Vance funds and are compensated for such services by the funds. As used in this Prospectus, the term “financial intermediary” includes any broker, dealer, bank (including bank trust departments), registered investment adviser, financial planner, a retirement plan and/or its administrator, their designated intermediaries and any other firm having a selling, administration or similar agreement with the principal underwriter or its affiliates.

Redeeming Shares

You can redeem shares in any of the following ways:


By Mail	Send your request to the transfer agent along with any certificates and stock powers. The request must be signed exactly as your account is registered (for instance, a joint account must be signed by all registered owners to be accepted) and a Medallion signature guarantee may be required. You can obtain a Medallion signature guarantee at banks, savings and loan institutions, credit unions, securities dealers, securities exchanges, clearing agencies and registered securities associations that participate in The Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program, Inc. (STAMP, Inc.). Only Medallion signature guarantees issued in accordance with STAMP, Inc. will be accepted. You may be asked to provide additional documents if your shares are registered in the name of a corporation, partnership or fiduciary.

By Telephone	Certain shareholders can redeem by calling 1-800-262-1122 Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (eastern time). Proceeds of a telephone redemption are generally limited to $100,000 per account (which may include shares of one or more Eaton Vance funds) and can be sent only to the account address or to a bank pursuant to prior instructions.

By Internet	Certain shareholders can redeem by logging on to the Eaton Vance website at www.eatonvance.com. Proceeds of internet redemptions are generally limited to $100,000 per account (which may include shares of one or more Eaton Vance funds) and can be sent only to the account address or to a bank pursuant to prior instructions.

For Additional Information	Please call 1-800-262-1122 Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (eastern time).

Through a Financial Intermediary	Your financial intermediary is responsible for transmitting the order promptly. A financial intermediary may charge a fee for this service.

Class I shares acquired on or after April 1, 2005 are subject to a 2% redemption fee if redeemed or exchanged and other shares may be subject to a 1% redemption fee (see "Fund Redemption Fee" below for more information). If you redeem shares, your redemption price will be based on the net asset value per share next computed after the redemption request is received in proper form (meaning that it is complete and contains all necessary information) by the Fund’s transfer agent or your financial intermediary. Your redemption proceeds normally will be paid in cash within seven days, reduced by the amount of any applicable redemption fee and any federal income tax required to be withheld. Payments will be sent by regular mail. However, if you have given complete written authorization in advance, you may request that the redemption proceeds be wired directly to your bank account. The bank designated may be any bank in the United States. The request may be made by calling 1-800-262-1122 or by sending a Medallion

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund

Prospectus dated November 1, 2010

signature guaranteed letter of instruction to the transfer agent (see back cover for address). Certain redemption requests including those involving shares held by certain corporations, trusts or certain other entities and shares that are subject to certain fiduciary arrangements may require additional documentation and may be redeemed only by mail. You may be required to pay the costs of such transaction by the Fund or your bank. No costs are currently charged by the Fund. However, charges may apply for expedited mail delivery services. The Fund may suspend or terminate the expedited payment procedure upon at least 30 days’ notice.

If you recently purchased shares, the proceeds of a redemption will not be sent until the purchase check (including a certified or cashier’s check) has cleared. If the purchase check has not cleared, redemption proceeds may be delayed up to 15 days from the purchase date. If your account value falls below $50,000 (other than due to market decline), you may be asked either to add to your account or redeem it within 60 days. If you take no action, your account will be redeemed and the proceeds sent to you.

While redemption proceeds are normally paid in cash, redemptions may be paid by distributing marketable securities. If you receive securities, you could incur brokerage or other charges in converting the securities to cash.

Shareholder Account Features

Distributions. You may have your Fund distributions paid in one of the following ways:


•Full Reinvest Option	Distributions are reinvested in additional shares. This option will be assigned if you do not specify an option.

•Partial Reinvest Option •Cash Option •Exchange Option	Dividends are paid in cash and capital gains are reinvested in additional shares. Distributions are paid in cash. Distributions are reinvested in additional shares of any class of another Eaton Vance fund chosen by you, subject to the terms of that fund’s prospectus. Before selecting this option, you must obtain a prospectus of the other fund and consider its objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully.

Information about the Fund. From time to time, you may receive the following:

Semiannual and annual reports containing a list of portfolio holdings as of the end of the second and fourth fiscal quarters, respectively, performance information and financial statements.
Periodic account statements, showing recent activity and total share balance.
Tax information needed to prepare your income tax returns.
Proxy materials, in the event a shareholder vote is required.
Special notices about significant events affecting your Fund.

Most fund information (including semiannual and annual reports, prospectuses and proxy statements) as well as your periodic account statements can be delivered electronically. For more information please go to www.eatonvance.com/edelivery.

The Fund will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a list of its portfolio holdings as of the end of the first and third fiscal quarters on Form N-Q. The Fund’s annual and semiannual reports (as filed on Form N-CSR) and each Form N-Q may be viewed on the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov). The most recent fiscal quarter end holdings may also be viewed on the Eaton Vance website (www.eatonvance.com). Portfolio holdings information that is filed with the SEC is posted on the Eaton Vance website approximately 60 days after the end of the quarter to which it relates. Portfolio holdings information as of each month end is posted to the website 30 days after such month end. The Fund also posts information about certain portfolio characteristics (such as top ten holdings and asset allocation) as of the most recent month end on the Eaton Vance website approximately ten business days after the most recent month end.

The Eaton Vance funds have established policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of portfolio holdings and other information concerning Fund characteristics. A description of these policies and procedures is provided in the Statement of Additional Information. Such policies and procedures regarding disclosure of portfolio holdings are designed to prevent the misuse of material, non-public information about the funds.

Withdrawal Plan. You may redeem shares on a regular periodic basis by establishing a systematic withdrawal plan.

Redemption Fee. Class I shares acquired on or after April 1, 2005 are subject to a redemption fee, at the time of exchange or redemption, equal to 2% of the net asset value of the shares exchanged or redeemed. This fee is not paid separately but is deducted automatically from the amount received in connection with a redemption or exchange. The redemption fee is retained by the Fund to defray the costs associated with the sale of portfolio securities to satisfy an exchange or redemption request. Shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions paid to shareholders by the Fund are not subject to

Eaton Vance Parametric Tax-Managed Emerging Markets Fund

Prospectus dated November 1, 2010

the redemption fee. Prior to April 1, 2005, Class I shares were subject to both a purchase fee, at the time of purchase, and a redemption fee, at the time of exchange or redemption, equal to 1% of the net asset value of the shares purchased, exchanged or redeemed. Shareholders who held shares on March 31, 2005 are subject to only the 1% redemption fee on the sale or exchange of those shares because they paid the 1% purchase fee at the time those shares were purchased. Shareholders who purchased shares of the Predecessor Fund on or before June 30, 1998 and exchanged those shares for shares of the Fund in the February 6, 2004 merger of the Predecessor Fund into the Fund are not subject to the 1% redemption fee on the sale or exchange of those shares.

Tax-Deferred Retirement Plans. Distributions will be invested in additional shares for all tax-deferred retirement plans.

Exchange Privilege. You may exchange your Class I shares for other Eaton Vance fund Class I shares. Exchanges are made at net asset value (subject to any applicable redemption fee). Before exchanging, you should read the prospectus of the new fund carefully. Exchanges are subject to the terms applicable to purchases of the new fund’s shares as set forth in its prospectus. If you wish to exchange shares, write to the transfer agent (see back cover for address), log on to your account at www.eatonvance.com or call 1-800-262-1122. The exchange privilege may be changed or discontinued at any time. You will receive at least 60 days’ notice of any material change to the privilege. This privilege may not be used for “market timing” and may be terminated for market timing accounts or for any other reason. For additional information, see "Restrictions on Excessive Trading and Market Timing" under "Purchasing Shares".

Telephone and Electronic Transactions. You can redeem or exchange shares by telephone as described in this Prospectus. In addition, certain transactions may be conducted through the Eaton Vance website. The transfer agent and the principal underwriter have procedures in place to authenticate telephone and electronic instructions (such as using security codes or verifying personal account information). As long as the transfer agent and principal underwriter follow reasonable procedures, they will not be responsible for unauthorized telephone or electronic transactions and you bear the risk of possible loss resulting from these transactions. You may decline the telephone redemption option on the account application. Telephone instructions are recorded.

“Street Name” Accounts. If your shares are held in a “street name” account at a financial intermediary, that intermediary (and not the Fund or its transfer agent) will perform all recordkeeping, transaction processing and distribution payments. Because the Fund will have no record of your transactions, you should contact your financial intermediary to purchase, redeem or exchange shares, to make changes in your account, or to obtain account information. You will not be able to utilize a number of shareholder features, such as telephone transactions, directly with the Fund. If you transfer shares in a “street name” account to an account with another financial intermediary or to an account directly with the Fund, you should obtain historical information about your shares prior to the transfer.

Procedures for Opening New Accounts. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each new customer who opens a Fund account and to determine whether such person’s name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists or terrorist organizations. When you open an account, the transfer agent or your financial intermediary will ask you for your name, address, date of birth (for individuals), residential or business street address (although post office boxes are still permitted for mailing) and social security number, taxpayer identification number, or other government-issued identifying number. You also may be asked to produce a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other identifying documents in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic databases. Other information or documents may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities. Federal law prohibits the Fund and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information described above. If a person fails to provide the information requested, any application by that person to open a new account will be rejected. Moreover, if the transfer agent or the financial intermediary is unable to verify the identity of a person based on information provided by that person, it may take additional steps including, but not limited to, requesting additional information or documents from the person, closing the person’s account or reporting the matter to the appropriate federal authorities. If your account is closed for this reason, your shares may be automatically redeemed at the net asset value next determined. If the Fund’s net asset value has decreased since your purchase, you will lose money as a result of this redemption. The Fund has also designated an anti-money laundering compliance officer.

Account Questions. If you have any questions about your account or the services available, please call Eaton Vance Shareholder Services at 1-800-262-1122 Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (eastern time), or write to the transfer agent (see back cover for address).

More information is available free of charge on the Eaton Vance website at www.eatonvance.com and in the Statement of Additional Information. Please consult the Eaton Vance website before making a purchase of Fund shares.

Additional Tax Information

While the Fund attempts to minimize taxable distributions, there can be no assurance that taxable distributions can be avoided. Distributions of investment income and net short-term capital gains will be taxable as ordinary income. Distributions of any long-term capital gains are taxable at long-term capital gains rates. Taxes on distributions of capital gains are determined by how long the Fund owned the investments that generated them, rather than how long a shareholder has owned his or her shares in the Fund. The Fund expects to pay any required distributions at least once annually and intends to distribute any net realized capital gains annually. The Fund expects that its distributions will consist primarily of capital gains (which may be taxable at different rates depending on how long the Fund owned the investment that generated them). The Fund’s distributions will be taxable as described above whether they are paid in cash or reinvested in additional shares. The Fund’s distributions will generally not qualify for the dividends-received deduction for corporations.

For taxable years beginning on or before December 31, 2010, distributions of investment income designated by the Fund as derived from "qualified dividend income" will be taxed in the hands of individuals at rates applicable to long-term capital gains provided the holding period and other requirements are met at both the shareholder and Fund level.

Investors who purchase shares at a time when the Fund’s net asset value reflects gains that are either unrealized or realized but undistributed will pay the full price for the shares and then may receive some portion of the purchase price back as a taxable distribution. Certain distributions paid in January may be taxable to shareholders as if received on December 31 of the prior year. A redemption of Fund shares, including an exchange for shares of another fund, is a taxable transaction.

The Fund’s investments in foreign securities may be subject to foreign withholding taxes, which would decrease the Fund’s return on such securities. Under certain circumstances, shareholders may be entitled to claim a credit or deduction with respect to foreign taxes paid by the Fund. In addition, investments in foreign securities or foreign currencies may increase or accelerate the Fund’s recognition of ordinary income and may affect the timing or amount of the Fund’s distributions.

The Fund may be required to withhold, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a portion of the dividends, distributions and redemption proceeds payable to shareholders who fail to provide the Fund with their correct taxpayer identification number or to make required certifications, or who have been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that they are subject to backup withholding. Certain shareholders are exempt from backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amount withheld may be credited against a shareholder’s U.S. federal income tax liability.

Shareholders should consult with their advisers concerning the applicability of federal, state, local, foreign and other taxes to an investment.
