NOTICES
Managed Distribution Plan. On March 10, 2009,
the Fund received authorization from the Securities and Exchange
Commission to distribute long-term capital gains to shareholders
more frequently than once per year. In this connection, the
Board of Trustees formally approved the implementation of a
Managed Distribution Plan (MDP) to make monthly cash
distributions to common shareholders, stated in terms of a fixed
amount per common share.
The Fund intends to pay monthly cash distributions equal to
$0.12 per share. You should not draw any conclusions about the
Funds investment performance from the amount of these
distributions or from the terms of the MDP. The MDP will be
subject to regular periodic review by the Funds Board of
Trustees.
With each distribution, the Fund will issue a notice to
shareholders and an accompanying press release which will
provide detailed information required by the Funds
exemptive order. The Funds Board of Trustees may amend or
terminate the MDP at any time without prior notice to Fund
shareholders. However, at this time there are no reasonably
foreseeable circumstances that might cause the termination of
the MDP.
Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities
and Exchange Commission (the SEC) permits funds to
deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including
prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund
investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post
office box address. This practice is often called
householding and it helps eliminate duplicate
mailings to shareholders.
Eaton Vance, or your financial adviser, may household the
mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Eaton
Vance, or your financial adviser, otherwise. If you would
prefer that your Eaton Vance documents not be householded,
please contact Eaton Vance at
1-800-262-1122,
or contact your financial adviser. Your instructions that
householding not apply to delivery of your Eaton Vance documents
will be effective within 30 days of receipt by Eaton Vance
or your financial adviser.
Portfolio Holdings. Each Eaton Vance Fund and its
underlying Portfolio(s) (if applicable) will file a schedule of
portfolio holdings on
Form N-Q
with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal
year. The
Form N-Q
will be available on the Eaton Vance website at
www.eatonvance.com, by calling Eaton Vance at
1-800-262-1122
or in the EDGAR database on the SECs website at
www.sec.gov.
Form N-Q
may also be reviewed and copied at the SECs public
reference room in Washington, D.C. (call
1-800-732-0330
for information on the operation of the public reference room).
Proxy Voting. From time to time, funds are required
to vote proxies related to the securities held by the funds. The
Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable)
vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures
approved by the Funds and Portfolios Boards. You may
obtain a description of these policies and procedures and
information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies
relating to portfolio securities during the most recent
12 month period ended June 30, without charge, upon
request, by calling
1-800-262-1122.
This description is also available on the SECs website at
www.sec.gov.
Additional Notice to Shareholders. The Fund may
purchase shares of its common stock in the open market when they
trade at a discount to net asset value or at other times if the
Fund determines such purchases are advisable. There can be no
assurance that the Fund will take such action or that such
purchases would reduce the discount.

cover of this report for an important notice about
the privacy policies adopted by the Eaton Vance
organization.

Economic and Market Conditions
|
|
Extreme volatility defined the equity markets during the six months ending June 30, 2010, amid a
flurry of unsettling developments around the globe. Concerns about European sovereign debt, credit
tightening in China and a disastrous oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, among other events, blunted
the positive returns of the periods first three months, as many investors reduced their exposure
to risk-sensitive assets and returned to the sidelines. These disruptive events contributed to a
sharp sell-off in May. Domestic equities regained some ground in early June, but for the period
overall, the S&P 500 Index dipped 6.64%, the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 5.00% and
the technology-heavy NASDAQ Composite Index slid 6.61%. |
|
|
|
In spite of the markets May correction, the U.S. economy showed some signs of gradual recovery,
albeit less robust than many had hoped. Inflation remained subdued. Earnings trends saw
improvements, and employment data, while weaker than expected, were moving in the right direction. |
|
|
|
Value stocks outperformed growth stocks across all market capitalization categories. Mid- and
small-cap stocks outperformed large-caps, although returns were negative across all categories. The
S&P MidCap 400 Index dropped 1.36%, the small-cap Russell 2000 Index fell 1.95% and the large-cap
Russell 1000 Index declined 6.40%. |
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by
determining the percentage change in net asset value or market price (as applicable) with all
distributions reinvested. The Funds performance at market price will differ from its results at
NAV. Although market price performance generally reflects investment results over time, during
shorter periods, returns at market price can also be affected by factors such as changing
perceptions about the Fund, market conditions, fluctuations in supply and demand for the Funds
shares, or changes in Fund distributions. The Fund has no current intention to utilize leverage,
but may do so in the future through borrowings and/or other permitted methods. Investment return
and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their
original cost. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Funds
current performance may be lower or higher than the quoted return. For performance as of the most
recent month end, please refer to www.eatonvance.com.
Fund shares are not insured by the FDIC and are not deposits or other obligations of, or guaranteed
by, any depository institution. Shares are subject to investment risks, including possible loss of
principal invested.
Management Discussion
|
|
The Fund is a closed-end fund that trades on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbol
EOS. At net asset value (NAV) for the six months ending June 30, 2010, the Fund outperformed the
Russell 1000 Growth Index, the CBOE S&P 500 BuyWrite Index and the CBOE NASDAQ-100 BuyWrite Index,
as well as its Lipper peer
group.1 The Funds market price traded at a 3.00% premium to NAV as of period end. |
|
|
|
The Funds primary
objective is to provide current income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. The
Fund pursues its investment objectives by investing primarily in a portfolio of mid- and
large-capitalization common stocks, seeking to invest mostly in companies with above-average growth
and financial strength potential. Under normal market conditions, the Fund seeks to generate
current earnings in part by employing an options strategy of writing (selling) covered call options
on a substantial portion of its portfolio securities. During the extremely volatile six months
ending June 30, 2010, the Fund generated a higher level of option premium earnings than in the
previous period, which helped it outperform the Russell 1000 Growth Index, and it continued to
provide shareholders with attractive monthly distributions. |

It is not possible to invest directly in an Index or a Lipper Classification. The
Indices total returns do not reflect commissions or expenses that would have been incurred if an
investor individually purchased or sold the securities represented in the Indices. The Lipper total
return is the average total return, at net asset value, of the funds that are in the same Lipper
Classification as the Fund. |
|

|
Six-month returns are cumulative. |
|

|
The Distribution Rate is based on the Funds last regular distribution per share
(annualized) in the period divided by the Funds NAV or market price at the end of the period. The
Funds distributions may be comprised of ordinary income, net realized capital gains and return of
capital. |

INVESTMENT UPDATE
|
|
sector weightings on June 30, 2010, were in information technology (IT), consumer discretionary and
consumer staples. Sector allocation and stock selection both helped the Fund outperform versus the
Russell index. The Funds holdings in the Internet software/services, health care
equipment/supplies and household durables industries all contributed to the relative
outperformance, as did an underweighting of the consumer staples sector and a moderate position in
cash, which helped in a falling market environment. On the downside, security selection in pockets
of the IT and industrials sectors detracted from relative performance. |
|
|
|
As of June 30, 2010, the Fund had written call options on approximately 61% of its equity
holdings. The Fund seeks current earnings in part from option premiums, which can vary with
investors expectations of the future volatility (implied volatility) of the Funds underlying
assets. During the first three months of 2010, there were relatively low levels of implied
volatility, with correspondingly low levels of actual volatility in the equity markets. However,
the latter half of the six-month period saw a significant increase in volatility levels. For the
period as a whole, the Fund received increased option premiums compared with the previous period,
and this helped the Funds relative return. |
The views expressed throughout this report are those of the portfolio managers and are current only
through the end of the period of the report as stated on the cover. These views are subject to
change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and the investment adviser disclaims any
responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and,
because investment decisions for a fund are based on many factors, may not be relied on as an
indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. Portfolio information provided in
the report may not be representative of the Funds current or future investments and may change due
to active management.

Eaton Vance
Enhanced Equity Income
Fund II as
of June 30, 2010
NOTES TO FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1 Significant
Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund II (the Fund) is a
Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a
diversified, closed-end management investment company. The
Funds primary investment objective is to provide current
income, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. The
Fund pursues its investment objectives by investing primarily in
a portfolio of mid- and large-capitalization common stocks,
seeking to invest primarily in companies with above-average
growth and financial strength. Under normal market conditions,
the Fund seeks to generate current earnings from option premiums
by selling covered call options on a substantial portion of its
portfolio securities.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of
the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
A Investment
Valuation Equity securities (including common
shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S.
securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale price
on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date,
at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore
on the exchange where such securities are principally traded.
Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select
Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing
price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales
prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the
mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in
the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or
traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing
service that will use various techniques that consider factors
including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities
with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer
quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as
well as industry and economic events. Exchange-traded options
are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices at
valuation time, as reported by the Options Price Reporting
Authority for U.S. listed options or by the relevant exchange or
board of trade for
non-U.S.
listed options.
Over-the-counter
options are valued by a third party pricing service using
techniques that consider factors including the value of the
underlying instrument, the volatility of the underlying
instrument and the time until option expiration. Short-term debt
securities purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or
less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates
market value. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in
U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations
supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service
uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs
to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask
spreads. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign
securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on
the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events
occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may
result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to
more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of
regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing
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 fair-valued securities. Investments for which valuations
or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed
unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in
good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Fund in
a manner that most fairly reflects the securitys value, or
the amount that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive for
the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each
such determination is based on a consideration of all relevant
factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to
another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the
type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions
on the securitys disposition, the price and extent of
public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of
comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant
information obtained from broker-dealers or other market
participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts,
and/or the
appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an
analysis of the companys or entitys financial
condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the
issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and
sold.
The Fund may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash
Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by
Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally
values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost
valuation technique in accordance with
Rule 2a-7
under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a
portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a
constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If
amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash
Reserves Fund may value its investment securities based on
available market quotations provided by a third party pricing
service.
B Investment
Transactions Investment transactions for
financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date
basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are
determined on the basis of identified cost.

Eaton Vance
Enhanced Equity Income
Fund II as
of June 30, 2010
NOTES TO FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONTD
C Income
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for
dividends received in cash
and/or
securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain
dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Fund is
informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign
dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance
with the Funds understanding of the applicable
countries tax rules and rates. Interest income is recorded
on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of
premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal
Taxes The Funds policy is to comply
with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to
regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders
each year substantially all of its net investment income, and
all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains.
Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is
necessary.
At December 31, 2009, the Fund, for federal income tax
purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $182,309,138 which
will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized
gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent
permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the
amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise
be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal
income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire
on December 31, 2016 ($22,378,226) and December 31,
2017 ($159,930,912).
Additionally, at December 31, 2009, the Fund had a net
capital loss of $6,003,360 attributable to security transactions
incurred after October 31, 2009. This net capital loss is
treated as arising on the first day of the Funds taxable
year ending December 31, 2010.
As of June 30, 2010, the Fund had no uncertain tax
positions that would require financial statement recognition,
de-recognition, or disclosure. Each of the Funds federal
tax returns filed in the
3-year
period ended December 31, 2009 remains subject to
examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
E Expense
Reduction State Street Bank and
Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund.
Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced
by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash
balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if
any, used to reduce the Funds custodian fees are reported
as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Foreign
Currency Translation Investment valuations,
other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign
currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars
based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of
foreign investment securities and income and expenses
denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the
respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or
losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in
foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial
statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on
investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on
investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use
of Estimates The preparation of the financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
H Indemnifications
Under the Funds organizational documents, its
officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain
liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their
duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain
conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business
trust (such as the Fund) could be deemed to have personal
liability for the obligations of the Fund. However, the
Funds Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer
of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws
provide that the Fund shall assume the defense on behalf of any
Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for
indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held
personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a
shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability.
Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters
into agreements with service providers that may contain
indemnification clauses. The Funds maximum exposure under
these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future
claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet
occurred.
I Written
Options Upon the writing of a call or a put
option, the premium received by the Fund is included in the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount
of the liability is subsequently
marked-to-market
to reflect the current market value of the option written, in
accordance with the Funds policies on investment
valuations discussed above. Premiums received from writing
options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums
received from writing options which are exercised or are closed
are added to or offset against the proceeds or amount paid on
the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. If a put
option on a security is
13
Eaton Vance
Enhanced Equity Income
Fund II as
of June 30, 2010
NOTES TO FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONTD
exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities
purchased by the Fund. The Fund, as a writer of an option, may
have no control over whether the underlying securities or other
assets may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result,
bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of
the securities or other assets underlying the written option.
The Fund may also bear the risk of not being able to enter into
a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not
exist.
J Interim
Financial Statements The interim financial
statements relating to June 30, 2010 and for the six months
then ended have not been audited by an independent registered
public accounting firm, but in the opinion of the Funds
management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of
the financial statements.
2 Distributions
to Shareholders
Subject to its Managed Distribution Plan, the Fund intends to
make monthly distributions from its cash available for
distribution, which consists of the Funds dividends and
interest income after payment of Fund expenses, net option
premiums and net realized and unrealized gains on stock
investments. The Fund intends to distribute all or substantially
all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available
capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any).
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund
distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a
financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America require that only
distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be
reported in the financial statements as a return of capital.
Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating
to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax
purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are
considered to be from ordinary income. Distributions in any year
may include a substantial return of capital component. For the
six months ended June 30, 2010, the amount of distributions
estimated to be a tax return of capital was approximately
$33,600,000. The final determination of tax characteristics of
the Funds distributions will occur at the end of the year,
at which time it will be reported to the shareholders.
3 Investment
Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by EVM as compensation for
management and investment advisory services rendered to the
Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 1.00% of the
Funds average daily gross assets and is payable monthly.
Gross assets as referred to herein represent net assets plus
obligations attributable to investment leverage, if any. Prior
to its liquation in February 2010, the portion of the
adviser fee payable by Cash Management Portfolio, an affiliated
investment company, on the Funds investment of cash
therein was credited against the Funds investment adviser
fee. The Fund currently invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund.
EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services
provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the six months ended
June 30, 2010, the Funds investment adviser fee
totaled $3,074,106 of which $989 was allocated from Cash
Management Portfolio and $3,073,117 was paid or accrued directly
by the Fund. EVM also serves as administrator of the Fund, but
receives no compensation.
Except for Trustees of the Fund who are not members of
EVMs organization, officers and Trustees receive
remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the
investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Fund who are not
affiliated with EVM may elect to defer receipt of all or a
percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of
the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the six months
ended June 30, 2010, no significant amounts have been
deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund are officers
of EVM.
4 Purchases
and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term
obligations, aggregated $102,261,419 and $140,681,637,
respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

7 Financial Instruments
The Fund may trade in financial instruments with off-balance
sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities.
These financial instruments may include written options and may
involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the
amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The
notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent
the investment the Fund

At June 30, 2010, the Fund had sufficient cash
and/or
securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
The Fund is subject to equity price risk in the normal course of
pursuing its investment objectives. The Fund generally intends
to write covered call options on individual stocks above the
current value of the stock to generate premium income. In
writing call options on individual stocks, the Fund in effect,
sells potential appreciation in the value of the applicable
stock above the exercise price in exchange for the option
premium received. The Fund retains the risk of loss, minus the
premium received, should the price of the underlying stock
decline. The Fund is not subject to counterparty credit risk
with respect to its written options as the Fund, not the
counterparty, is obligated to perform under
such derivatives.
The fair value of derivative instruments (not considered to be
hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) and
whose primary underlying risk exposure is equity price risk at
June 30, 2010 was as follows:

8 Fair
Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value
measurements, a
three-tier
hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs,
is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The
three-tier
hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels
listed below.
|
|
|
|
|
Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for
identical investments
|
|
|
|
Level 2 other significant observable inputs
(including quoted prices for similar investments, interest
rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
|
|
|
|
Level 3 significant unobservable inputs
(including a funds own assumptions in determining the fair
value of investments)
|
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not
necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing
in those securities.
At June 30, 2010, the inputs used in valuing the
Funds investments, which are carried at value, were as
follows:

BOARD OF TRUSTEES ANNUAL
CONTRACT APPROVAL
Overview
of the Contract Review Process
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940
Act), provides, in substance, that each investment
advisory agreement between a fund and its investment adviser
will continue in effect from year to year only if its
continuance is approved at least annually by the funds
board of trustees, including by a vote of a majority of the
trustees who are not interested persons of the fund
(Independent Trustees), cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of considering such approval.

Eaton Vance Funds) held on April 26, 2010, the
Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, voted
to approve continuation of existing advisory and
sub-advisory
agreements for the Eaton Vance Funds for an additional
one-year
period. In voting its approval, the Board relied upon the
affirmative recommendation of the Contract Review Committee of
the Board, which is a committee comprised exclusively of

BOARD OF TRUSTEES ANNUAL
CONTRACT
APPROVAL CONTD
In addition to the information identified above, the Contract
Review Committee considered information provided from time to
time by each adviser throughout the year at meetings of the
Board and its committees. Over the course of the twelve-month
period ended April 30, 2010, with respect to one or more
Funds, the Board met ten times and the Contract Review
Committee, the Audit Committee, the Governance Committee, the
Portfolio Management Committee and the Compliance Reports and
Regulatory Matters Committee, each of which is a Committee
comprised solely of Independent Trustees, met nine, thirteen,
three, eight and fifteen times, respectively. At such meetings,
the Trustees received, among other things, presentations by the
portfolio managers and other investment professionals of each
adviser relating to the investment performance of each fund and
the investment strategies used in pursuing the funds
investment objective including, where relevant, the use of
derivative instruments, as well as trading policies and
procedures and risk management techniques.
For funds that invest through one or more underlying portfolios,
the Board considered similar information about the portfolio(s)
when considering the approval of advisory agreements. In
addition, in cases where the funds investment adviser has
engaged a
sub-adviser,
the Board considered similar information about the
sub-adviser
when considering the approval of any
sub-advisory
agreement.
The Contract Review Committee was assisted throughout the
contract review process by Goodwin Procter LLP, legal counsel
for the Independent Trustees. The members of the Contract Review
Committee relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own
business judgment in determining the material factors to be
considered in evaluating each advisory and
sub-advisory
agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The
conclusions reached with respect to each advisory and
sub-advisory
agreement were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all the
information provided and not any single factor. Moreover, each
member of the Contract Review Committee may have placed varying
emphasis on particular factors in reaching conclusions with
respect to each advisory and
sub-advisory
agreement.
Results
of the Process
Based on its consideration of the foregoing, and such other
information as it deemed relevant, including the factors and
conclusions described below, the Contract Review Committee
concluded that the continuance of the investment advisory
agreement of Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund II
(the Fund), with Eaton Vance Management (the
Adviser), including its fee structure, is in the
interests of shareholders and, therefore, the Contract Review
Committee recommended to the Board approval of the agreement.
The Board accepted the recommendation of the Contract Review
Committee as well as the factors considered and conclusions
reached by the Contract Review Committee with respect to the
agreement. Accordingly, the Board, including a majority of the
Independent Trustees, voted to approve continuation of the
investment advisory agreement for the Fund.
Nature,
Extent and Quality of Services
In considering whether to approve the investment advisory
agreement of the Fund, the Board evaluated the nature, extent
and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Adviser.
The Board considered the Advisers management capabilities
and investment process with respect to the types of investments
held by the Fund, including the education, experience and number
of its investment professionals and other personnel who provide
portfolio management, investment research, and similar services
to the Fund. The Board evaluated, where relevant, the abilities
and experience of such investment personnel in analyzing factors
such as credit risk, and special considerations relevant to
investing in particular markets or industries and implementing
the Funds options strategy. The Board considered the
Advisers in-house research capabilities as well as other
resources available to personnel of the Adviser. The Board also
took into account the resources dedicated to portfolio
management and other services, including the compensation
methods to recruit and retain investment personnel, and the time
and attention devoted to the Fund by senior management.
The Board also reviewed the compliance programs of the Adviser
and relevant affiliates thereof. Among other matters, the Board
considered compliance and reporting matters relating to personal
trading by investment personnel, selective disclosure of
portfolio holdings, late trading, frequent trading, portfolio
valuation, business continuity and the allocation of investment
opportunities. The Board also evaluated the responses of the
Adviser and its affiliates to requests in recent years from
regulatory authorities such as the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.
The Board considered shareholder and other administrative
services provided or managed by the Adviser and its affiliates,
including transfer agency and accounting services. The Board
evaluated the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund
that is a part of a large family of funds.
After consideration of the foregoing factors, among others, the
Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services
provided by the Adviser, taken as a whole, are appropriate and
consistent with the terms of the investment advisory agreement.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES ANNUAL
CONTRACT
APPROVAL CONTD
Fund Performance
The Board compared the Funds investment performance to a
relevant universe of comparable funds identified by an
independent data provider as well as a peer group of similarly
managed funds and appropriate benchmark indices. The Board
reviewed comparative performance data for the
one- and
three-year
periods ended September 30, 2009 for the Fund. The Board
concluded that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory.
Management
Fees and Expenses
The Board reviewed contractual investment advisory fee rates
payable by the Fund (referred to as management
fees). As part of its review, the Board considered the
management fees and the Funds total expense ratio for the
year ended September 30, 2009, as compared to a group of
similarly managed funds selected by an independent data
provider. The Board also considered factors that had an impact
on Fund expense ratios, as identified by management in response
to inquiries from the Contract Review Committee, as well as
actions being taken to reduce expenses at the Eaton Vance fund
complex level.
After reviewing the foregoing information, and in light of the
nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the
Adviser, the Board concluded that the management fees charged
for advisory and related services are reasonable.
Profitability
The Board reviewed the level of profits realized by the Adviser
and relevant affiliates thereof in providing investment advisory
and administrative services to the Fund and to all Eaton Vance
Funds as a group. The Board considered the level of profits
realized with and without regard to revenue sharing or other
payments by the Adviser and its affiliates to third parties in
respect of distribution services. The Board also considered
other direct or indirect benefits received by the Adviser and
its affiliates in connection with its relationship with the
Fund, including the benefits of research services that may be
available to the Adviser as a result of securities transactions
effected for the Fund and other investment advisory clients.
The Board concluded that, in light of the foregoing factors and
the nature, extent and quality of the services rendered, the
profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates are
reasonable.
Economies
of Scale
In reviewing management fees and profitability, the Board also
considered the extent to which the Adviser and its affiliates,
on the one hand, and the Fund, on the other hand, can expect to
realize benefits from economies of scale as the assets of the
Fund increase. The Board acknowledged the difficulty in
accurately measuring the benefits resulting from the economies
of scale with respect to the management of any specific fund or
group of funds. The Board also considered the fact that the Fund
is not continuously offered and concluded that, in light of the
level of the Advisers profits with respect to the Fund,
the implementation of breakpoints in the advisory fee schedule
is not appropriate at this time. Based upon the foregoing, the
Board concluded that the benefits from economies of scale are
currently being shared equitably by the Adviser and its
affiliates and the Fund.

Item 6. Schedule of Investments
Please see schedule of investments contained in the Report to Stockholders included under Item 1 of

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies
The Board of Trustees of the Trust has adopted a proxy voting policy and procedure (the Fund
Policy), pursuant to which the Trustees have delegated proxy voting responsibility to the Funds
investment adviser and adopted the investment advisers proxy voting policies and procedures (the
Policies) which are described below. The Trustees will review the Funds proxy voting records
from time to time and will annually consider approving the Policies for the upcoming year. In the
event that a conflict of interest arises between the Funds shareholders and the investment
adviser, the administrator, or any of their affiliates or any affiliate of the Fund, the investment
adviser will generally refrain from voting the proxies related to the companies giving rise to such
conflict until it consults with the Boards Special Committee except as contemplated under the Fund
Policy. The Boards Special Committee will instruct the investment adviser on the appropriate
course of action.
The Policies are designed to promote accountability of a companys management to its shareholders
and to align the interests of management with those shareholders. An independent proxy
voting service (Agent), currently Institutional Shareholder Services, Inc., has been retained to
assist in the voting of proxies through the provision of vote analysis, implementation and
recordkeeping and disclosure services. The investment adviser will generally vote proxies through
the Agent. The Agent is required to vote all proxies and/or refer then back to the investment
adviser pursuant to the Policies. It is generally the policy of the investment adviser to vote in
accordance with the recommendation of the Agent. The Agent shall refer to the investment adviser
proxies relating to mergers and restructurings, and the disposition of assets, termination,
liquidation and mergers contained in mutual fund proxies. The investment adviser will normally
vote against anti-takeover measures and other proposals designed to limit the ability of
shareholders to act on possible transactions, except in the case of closed-end management
investment companies. The investment adviser generally supports management on social and
environmental proposals. The investment adviser may abstain from voting from time to time where it
determines that the costs associated with voting a proxy outweighs the benefits derived from
exercising the right to vote or the economic effect on shareholders interests or the value of the
portfolio holding is indeterminable or insignificant.
In addition, the investment adviser will monitor situations that may result in a conflict of
interest between the Funds shareholders and the investment adviser, the administrator, or any of
their affiliates or any affiliate of the Fund by maintaining a list of significant existing and
prospective corporate clients. The investment advisers personnel responsible for reviewing and
voting proxies on behalf of the Fund will report any proxy received or expected to be received from
a company included on that
list to the personal of the investment adviser identified in the Policies. If such personnel
expects to instruct the Agent to vote such proxies in a manner inconsistent with the guidelines of
the Policies or the recommendation of the Agent, the personnel will consult with members of senior
management of the investment adviser to determine if a material conflict of interests exists. If
it is determined that a material conflict does exist, the investment adviser will seek instruction
on how to vote from the Special Committee.
Information on how the Fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent
12 month period ended June 30 is available (1) without charge, upon request, by calling
1-800-262-1122, and (2) on the Securities and Exchange Commissions website at http://www.sec.gov.
