Eaton Vance Limited Duration Income Fund, Eaton Vance Senior Floating-Rate Trust, and Eaton Vance Senior Income Trust Announce Redemption of Remaining Auction Preferred SharesEaton Vance Limited Duration Income Fund (NYSE American: EVV), Eaton Vance Senior Floating-Rate Trust (NYSE: EFR), and Eaton Vance Senior Income Trust (NYSE: EVF) (each, a "Fund," and together, the "Funds") announced today that each Fund will redeem, at liquidation preference plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends, all remaining auction preferred shares ("APS"), pursuant to the terms of the Fund's By-Laws classifying and designating the APS. As previously announced, in voluntary tender offers completed in May 2026, approximately 98.6% of outstanding APS were tendered for EVV, approximately 99.3% of outstanding APS were tendered for EFR, and approximately 81.4% of outstanding APS were tendered for EVF. The remaining APS outstanding after the tenders were completed are 120 shares representing $3,000,000 in aggregate liquidation preference for EVV, 20 shares representing $500,000 in aggregate liquidation preference for EFR, and 280 shares representing $7,000,000 in aggregate liquidation preference for EVF. Due to the limited benefit from utilizing the remaining APS for leverage, ongoing costs to maintain the APS, and certain asset-testing requirements that remain in place for as long as a Fund has any APS outstanding, management recommended and the Board of Trustees of each Fund approved redeeming the remaining APS at 100% of liquidation preference ($25,000 per share) plus accumulated but unpaid dividends, up to their respective dates of redemption. The redemption of each series of APS will take place on September 15, 2026 (the "Redemption Date"). Dividends on each series of APS to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on the Redemption Date. APS holders will receive notices containing additional details regarding the redemption, including information regarding the place or places pursuant to which the APS are being redeemed. The APS to be redeemed by series are as follows:
