Applicant's Representations
1. Applicant is an open-end, non-diversified management investment
company organized as a New York trust. Applicant is a master fund in a
master-feeder structure.
2. On August 19, 1994, applicant registered under the Act and filed
a registration statement on Form N-1A. No registration was filed under
the Securities Act of 1933 (``Securities Act'') because applicant's
beneficial interests were issued solely in private placement
transactions that did not involve any public offering within the
meaning of section 4(2) of the Securities Act.
3. Applicant's sole feeder fund terminated its operations and,
therefore, applicant is doing the same. On November 20, 1995,
applicant's Board of Trustees unanimously approved the liquidation of
applicant, effective January 31, 1996. No shareholder approval was
required by the Declaration of Trust of Applicant, or by applicable
law.
4. By March 7, 1996, applicant redeemed both of its beneficial
interests which were held by Eaton Vance North Carolina Limited
Maturity Municipals Fund, a series of Eaton Vance Investment Trust, and
Eaton Vance Management. Each interest holder received cash equal to the
net asset value of its interest in applicant.
5. Applicant has no securityholders, liabilities or assets.
Applicant is not a party to any litigation or administrative
proceeding. Applicant is not now engaged, nor does it propose to
engage, in any business activities other than those necessary for the
winding up of its affairs.
6. Applicant will take all required actions to terminate its
existence as a New York trust upon receipt of an order from the SEC
that it has ceased to be an investment company.
For the SEC, by the Division of Investment Management, under
delegated authority.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
