Eaton Vance Enhanced Equity Income Fund II (NYSE: EOS) today announced important information concerning its distribution declared in July 2010.  This press release is issued as required by the Fund's managed distribution plan (Plan) and an exemptive order received from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Board of Trustees has approved the implementation of the Plan to make monthly cash distributions to common shareholders, stated in terms of a fixed amount per common share. This information is sent to you for informational purposes only and is an estimate of the sources of the July distribution.  It is not determinative of the tax character of the Fund's distributions for the 2010 calendar year. Shareholders should note that the Fund's total regular distribution amount is subject to change as a result of market conditions or other factors.

The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this notice are estimates, are not being provided for tax reporting purposes and the distribution may later be determined to be from other sources including realized short-term gains, long-term gains, to the extent permitted by law, and return of capital. The actual amounts and sources for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations.  The Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

The following table sets forth an estimate of the sources of the Fund's July distribution and its cumulative distributions paid this fiscal year to date.  Amounts are expressed on a per common share basis and as a percentage of the distribution amount.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE:  You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Fund's Plan.  The Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with 'yield' or 'income.'  The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this Notice are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes.  The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for accounting and/or tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

Set forth in the table below is information relating to the Fund's performance based on its net asset value (NAV) for certain periods.    

The Fund is managed by Eaton Vance Management, a subsidiary of Eaton Vance Corp. (NYSE: EV), based in Boston, one of the oldest investment management firms in the United States, with a history dating back to 1924. Eaton Vance and its affiliates managed $165.4 billion in assets as of June 30, 2010, offering individuals and institutions a broad array of investment strategies and wealth management solutions.  The Company's long record of providing exemplary service and attractive returns through a variety of market conditions has made Eaton Vance the investment manager of choice for many of today's most discerning investors.  For more information about Eaton Vance, visit www.eatonvance.com.

Federated Premier Municipal Income Fund (NYSE: FMN) and Federated Premier Intermediate Municipal Income Fund (NYSE: FPT) today announced earnings for the six-month period ended May 31, 2010.  Established in 2002, the funds seek to provide investors with income that is exempt from federal income tax, including alternative minimum tax (AMT), by investing in municipal securities from different sectors, states and issuers across the country.

For the six-month period, FMN had net investment income of $3.25 million or $0.53 per common share.  From this amount, FMN paid dividends on preferred shares of $0.04 million, resulting in net investment income after the preferred dividends of $3.21 million or $0.52 per common share.  Net realized and unrealized gains were $3.8 million or $0.61 per common share.  At May 31, 2010, FMN had an undistributed income reserve of $0.101 per common share, down from $0.109 per common share at Nov. 30, 2009.  Total managed assets of FMN were $121.8 million and the net asset value per common share was $13.85.  

For the six-month period, FPT had net investment income of $3.01 million or $0.43 per common share.  From this amount, FPT paid dividends on preferred shares of $0.04 million, resulting in net investment income after the preferred dividends of $2.97 million or $0.42 per common share.  Net realized and unrealized gains were $1.7 million or $0.25 per common share.  At May 31, 2010, FPT had an undistributed income reserve of $0.045 per common share, down from $0.066 per common share at Nov. 30, 2009.  Total managed assets of FPT were $137.2 million and the net asset value per common share was $13.68.

Both FMN and FPT have paid monthly tax-free dividends since their first dividend declaration in February 2003.  In March 2010, the funds reduced their respective monthly common dividends with FMN's dividend declining to $0.087 per share from $0.090 and FPT's dividend declining to $0.070 per share from $0.079.  The dividend reductions reflect a drop in income as the current yields on portfolio assets are lower than the levels that prevailed during the prior fiscal year, reflecting lower yields generally available in the market.
