INVESTMENT UPDATE

[PICTURE] Investment Environment
----------------------
The Economy
-- On the last day of June, the Federal Reserve Bank announced that
it would raise the federal funds rate (the rate at which banks
lend money to each other overnight) by 0.25% to 5.0%. The
attention of Chairman Alan Greenspan has been increasingly focused
on the domestic labor market, looking for nascent signs of inflationary
pressures arising from tight labor market conditions.
- -- During the just-ended second quarter, U.S. economic growth continued, aided
by the beginning of a recovery in the manufacturing sector. While slower than
the 4.6% annual growth rate in gross domestic product in the first quarter,
the 2.3% growth rate of GDP in the second quarter indicates that the U.S.
economy remains healthy.
The Stock Market
- -- In the first half of 1999, the U.S. stock market advanced to record highs,
benefiting from continued strength in the U.S. economy and the easing of
fears about the impact of the Asian financial crises of 1998.
- -- Following the pattern of 1998, performance in the first quarter was led by
the large-capitalization growth stocks that dominate the S&P 500(1) and, to
a lesser extent, the holdings of Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio.
- -- Starting in early April, the U.S. equity market experienced a pronounced
change in market leadership. At that time, value stocks began to
outperform growth stocks and small-capitalization stocks began to outperform
large-cap stocks. The performance of large-cap growth stocks was hurt by
rising interest rates and high valuations. Cyclical stocks benefited from
rising expectations for global economic growth. Technology stocks were
generally strong performers throughout the first half of 1999.
The Fund
--------
The Past Six Months
- -- During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Fund's Class A shares had a
total return of 8.74%.(2) This return was the result of an increase in net
asset value (NAV) to $21.14 on June 30, 1999 from $19.44 on
December 31, 1998.
- -- The Fund's Class B shares had a total return of 8.32%(2) during the period,
the result of an increase in NAV to $20.69 from $19.10.
- -- The Fund's Class C shares had a total return of 8.22%(2) during the period,
the result of an increase in NAV to $19.89 from $18.38.
- -- For comparison, during the six months ended June 30, 1999, the average return
of the funds in the Lipper Growth Fund category was 11.64%.(1)
Management Discussion
- -- Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio invests in a broadly diversified selection of
stocks, with an emphasis on high-quality growth companies. The Portfolio is
managed toward an objective of long-term, after-tax returns.
- -- The Portfolio's performance during the first half of 1999 benefited from the
broad advance in U.S. stocks. Weakness in the overweighted financial and
healthcare sectors largely accounted for the underperformance versus
comparative benchmarks experienced in the first half of 1999. Management's
strategy is to be a patient investor and to emphasize investments that we
believe will generate consistent earnings growth and good long-term returns.
- -- As stocks reach ever-higher valuations, we continue to be vigilant in
identifying prudent new acquisitions. In an increasingly volatile market
environment, our analysts seek stocks with attractive risk/reward
situations that they believe can provide better returns over the long term.

(1) It is not possible to invest directly in an Index or a Lipper Category.
The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index commonly used as a measure of
U.S. stock market performance.
(2) These returns do not include the 5.75% maximum sales charge for the
Fund's Class A shares or the applicable contingent deferred sales charges
(CDSC) for Class B and Class C shares. (3) Returns are historical and are
calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value with
all distributions reinvested. SEC returns for Class A reflect the maximum
5.75% sales charge. SEC returns for Class B reflect the applicable CDSC
based on the following schedule: 5% - 1st and 2nd years; 4% - 3rd year;
3% - 4th year; 2% - 5th year; 1% - 6th year. SEC 1-Year return for Class C
reflects 1% CDSC. (4) Ten largest equity holdings accounted for 16.5% of
the Portfolio's net assets. Holdings are subject to change.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and
principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth
more or less than their original cost.

EATON VANCE TAX-MANAGED GROWTH FUND AS OF JUNE 30, 1999
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1 Significant Accounting Policies
- -------------------------------------------
Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Growth Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of
Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is an entity of the
type commonly known as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company. The Fund has five classes of shares. Class A shares are
generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B
and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are subject to a
contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 6). Class S shares were issued in
connection with the acquisition of a private investment company (see Note 8)
and are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Class S
shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 6).
Institutional Shares (which commenced July 1, 1999) are offered at net asset
value and are not subject to a contingent deferred sales charge. Each class
represents a pro rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on
class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses.
Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income, other
than class specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares
based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the
Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other
class specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in
interests in the Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio (the Portfolio), a New York
Trust, having the same investment objective as the Fund. The value of the
Fund's investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund's proportionate interest
in the net assets of the Portfolio (43.5% at June 30, 1999). The performance
of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The
financial statements of the Portfolio, including the Portfolio of
Investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in
conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
A Investment Valuation -- Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed
in Note 1A of the Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements, which are
included elsewhere in this report.
B Income -- The Fund's net investment income consists of the Fund's pro rata
share of the net investment income the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued
expenses of the Fund determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.
C Federal Taxes -- The Fund's policy is to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute to shareholders, each year, all of its net investment income, and
any net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income
or excise tax is necessary. At December 31, 1998 the Fund for federal income
tax purposes, had a capital loss carryover of $58,599,934 which will reduce
taxable income arising from future net realized gains, 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. A portion of such
capital loss carryover was acquired through the Fund Reorganization (see Note
8) and may be subject to certain limitations. Such capital loss carryover
will expire on December 31, 2006 ($56,075,499) and December 31, 2005
($2,524,435).
D Deferred Organization Expenses -- Costs incurred by the Fund in connection
with its organization are being amortized on the straight-line basis over
five years.
E Other -- Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
F Use of Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
G Interim Financial Statements -- The interim financial statements relating to
June 30, 1999 and for the six month period then ended have not been audited
by independent certified public accountants, but in the opinion of the Fund's
management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) CONT'D
2 Distributions to Shareholders
- -------------------------------------------
The Fund's policy is to distribute annually (normally in December)
substantially all of the net investment income allocated to the Fund by the
Portfolio (less the Fund's direct expenses) and to distribute annually all or
substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by any available
capital loss carryforwards from prior years) allocated by the Portfolio to
the Fund, if any. Distributions are paid in the form of additional shares of
the Fund or, at the election of the shareholder, in cash. The Fund
distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting
basis. Generally accepted accounting principles require that only
distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the
financial statements as a return of capital. Differences in the recognition
or classification of income between the financial statements and tax earnings
and profits which result in temporary over distributions for financial
statement purposes only are classified as distributions in excess of net
investment income or accumulated net realized gains. Permanent differences
between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to
paid-in capital.
3 Shares of Beneficial Interest
- -------------------------------------------
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of
full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such
shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and
classes. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

5 Distribution and Service Plans
- -------------------------------------------
The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for the Fund's Class A shares (the "Class
A Plan") that is designed to meet the service fee requirements of the sales
charge rule of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. The Class
A Plan provides that the Fund may make service fee payments for personal
services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts to EVD, financial
service firms ("investment dealers") and other persons in amounts not
exceeding 0.25% of average daily net assets for Class A shares for any fiscal
year. The Trustees have initially implemented the Class A Plan by authorizing
Class A to make quarterly service fee payments to the EVD and investment
dealers in amounts not expected to exceed 0.25% of the average daily net
assets for any fiscal year which is based on the value of Class A shares sold
by such persons and remaining outstanding for at least twelve months. The
Fund paid or accrued service fees to or payable to EVD for the six months
ended June 30, 1999, in the amount of $427,209 for Class A shares.
Pursuant to a servicing agreement, the Fund will make service fee payments in
the amount of 0.20% (annualized) of the value of Class S shares to EVD, one
half of which will be paid to a subagent commencing in the thirteenth month
after the issuance of Class S shares. The Fund paid or accrued service fees
to or payable to EVD for the period from May 14, 1999 to June 30, 1999 in the
amount of $13,113.
The Fund has also adopted distribution plans ("Class B Plan" and "Class C
Plan", collectively "the Plans") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. The Plans, which are approved annually, require the Fund
to pay EVD amounts equal to 1/365 of 0.75% of the Fund's Class B and Class C
daily net assets, for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities
to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during
any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges,
which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 5% and 6.25% of the aggregate amount
received by the Fund for the Class B and Class C shares sold, respectively,
plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing
prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of
EVD of each respective class reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent
deferred sales charges (see Note 6) and daily distribution fees theretofore
paid to EVD by each respective class. For the six months ended June 30, 1999,
the Fund paid or accrued $9,376,212 and $2,857,194 to or payable to EVD
representing 0.75% (annualized) of average daily net assets of Class B and
Class C shares, respectively. At June 30, 1999, the amount of Uncovered
Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Plans was approximately
$101,554,000 and $47,650,000 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
In addition, the Plans authorize the Fund to make payments of service fees to
EVD, investment dealers and other persons in amounts not exceeding 0.25% of
their average daily net assets for each fiscal year. Service fee payments are
made for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts.
Under the Class B Plan, this fee is paid quarterly in arrears based on the
value of Class B shares sold by such persons and remaining outstanding for at
least twelve months. Under the Class C Plan EVD currently expects to pay to
an investment dealer (a) a service fee (except on exchange transactions and
reinvestments) at the time of sale equal to 0.25% of the purchase price of
the Class C shares sold by such Firm and (b) monthly service fees
approximately equivalent to 1/12 of 0.25% of the value of Class C shares sold
by such Firm and remaining outstanding for at least one year. During the
first year after a purchase of Class C shares, EVD will retain the service
fee as reimbursement for the service fee payment made to investment dealers
at the time of sale. The Fund paid or accrued service fees to or payable to
EVD for the six months ended June 30, 1999, in the amounts of $1,318,103 and
$952,398 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively. Service fees are
separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees
payable by the Fund to EVD, and, as such are not subject to automatic
discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges
of EVD.
Certain officers and Trustees of the fund are officers of the above
organizations.
6 Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
- -------------------------------------------
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions
of Class B shares made within six years of purchase, on redemptions of Class
C shares made within one year of purchase and on redemptions of Class S
shares made within two years of issuance. Generally, the CDSC is based upon
the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase or
issuance. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends
or capital gains distributions. Class B CDSC is imposed at declining rates
that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year
after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C
shares will be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase.
Class S shares will be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of
issuance and
9
<PAGE>
EATON VANCE TAX-MANAGED GROWTH FUND AS OF JUNE 30, 1999
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) CONT'D
a 0.50% CDSC if redeemed during the second year after issuance. No CDSC is
levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their
respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited
conditions. CDSC charges on redemptions of Class B and Class C shares are
paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated
under each Fund's Distribution Plan (see Note 5). CDSC charges received when
no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist will be credited to the Fund. EVD
received approximately $3,211,000, $197,000 and $7,000 of CDSC paid by
shareholders for Class B shares, Class C shares and Class S shares,
respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
7 Investment Transactions
- -------------------------------------------

30, 1999. In addition, investments were distributed in payment for Fund
shares redeemed resulting in realized capital gains for book purposes of
$11,333,006 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
8 Transfer of Assets
- -------------------------------------------
On November 1, 1997, the EV Marathon Tax-Managed Growth Fund acquired the net
assets of the EV Traditional Tax-Managed Growth Fund and EV Classic
Tax-Managed Growth Fund pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization
dated June 23, 1997. In accordance with the agreement, EV Marathon
Tax-Managed Growth Fund, at the closing, issued 13,757,199 Class A shares and
10,607,729 Class C shares of the Fund having an aggregate value of
$201,987,148 and $148,819,397, respectively. As a result, the Fund issued one
Class A share and one Class C share for each share of EV Traditional
Tax-Managed Growth Fund and EV Classic Tax-Managed Growth Fund, respectively.
The transaction was structured for tax purposes to qualify as a tax free
reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code. The EV Traditional
Tax-Managed Growth Fund's and EV Classic Tax-Managed Growth Fund's net assets
at the date of the transaction were $201,987,148 and $148,819,397,
respectively, including $22,188,108 and $13,057,866 of unrealized
appreciation. Directly after the merger, the combined net assets of the Eaton
Vance Tax-Managed Growth Fund (formerly "EV Marathon Tax-Managed Growth
Fund") were $925,546,524 with a net asset value of $14.68, $14.55 and $14.03
for Class A, Class B and Class C, respectively.
On May 14, 1999, the Tax-Managed Growth Fund acquired a private investment
company (the "Company"). Under the terms of the acquisition the Company
transferred substantially all of its assets to the Fund in exchange for Class
S shares of beneficial interest in the Fund and the assumption by the Fund of
certain of the Company's liabilities. The assets transferred to the Fund by
the Company consisted of investment securities. The Fund immediately
exchanged such securities into the Portfolio for an interest in the
Portfolio. In connection with the acquisition the Fund exchanged 2,504,915
Class S shares with a net asset value of $21.00 per share for investment
securities with a value of $55,256,692 (including $53,429,791 of unrealized
appreciation) and assumed liabilities totaling $2,653,469. The transaction
was structured for tax purposes to qualify as a tax free reorganization under
the Internal Revenue Code. Immediately after the acquisition, the combined
net assets of the Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Growth Fund were $4,697,128,097
with a net asset value of $20.60, $20.19, $19.40 and $21.00 for Class A,
Class B, Class C and Class S, respectively.

TAX-MANAGED GROWTH PORTFOLIO AS OF JUNE 30, 1999
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1 Significant Accounting Policies
- -------------------------------------------
Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio (the Portfolio) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. The Portfolio, which was organized as a trust
under the laws of the State of New York on December 1, 1995, seeks to provide
long-term after-tax returns by investing in a diversified portfolio of equity
securities. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests
in the Portfolio. The following is a summary of significant accounting
policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its
financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
A Investment Valuations -- Marketable securities, including options, that are
listed on foreign or U.S. securities exchanges or in the NASDAQ National
Market System are valued at closing sale prices, on the exchange where such
securities are principally traded. Futures positions on securities or
currencies are generally valued at closing settlement prices. Unlisted or
listed securities for which closing sale prices are not available are
generally valued at the mean between the latest bid and asked prices.
Short-term debt securities with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates value. Other fixed income and
debt securities, including listed securities and securities for which price
quotations are available, will normally be valued on the basis of valuations
furnished by a pricing service. Over-the counter options are normally valued
at the mean between the latest bid and asked price. Investments for which
valuations or market quotations are unavailable are valued at fair value
using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the
Trustees.
B Income Taxes -- The Portfolio is treated as a partnership for Federal tax
purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on
any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is
ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of such
income. Since some of the Portfolio's investors are regulated investment
companies that invest all or substantially all of their assets in the
Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of
income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in
order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at
least annually among its investors, each investor's distributive share of the
Portfolio's net investment income, net realized capital gains, and any other
items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
C Deferred Organization Expenses -- Costs incurred by the Portfolio in
connection with its organization, are being amortized on the straight-line
basis over five years.
D Futures Contracts -- Upon the entering of a financial futures contract, the
Portfolio is required to deposit either in cash or securities an amount
("initial margin") equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price
indicated in the financial futures contract. Subsequent payments are made or
received by the Portfolio ("margin maintenance") each day, dependent on daily
fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, and are recorded for
book purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. The Portfolio's
investment in financial futures contracts is designed to hedge against
anticipated future changes in price of current or anticipated portfolio
positions. Should prices move unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the
anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a
loss.
E Put Options -- Upon the purchase of a put option by the Portfolio, the
premium paid is recorded as an investment, the value of which is
marked-to-market daily. When a purchased option expires, the Portfolio will
realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. When the Portfolio
enters into a closing sale transaction, the Portfolio will realize a gain or
loss depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale
transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. When the
Portfolio exercises a put option, settlement is made in cash. The risk
associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid.
F Securities Sold Short -- The Portfolio may sell securities it does not own in
anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities or in order
to hedge portfolio positions. The Portfolio will generally borrow the
security sold in order to make delivery to the buyer. Upon executing the
transaction, the Portfolio records the proceeds as deposits with brokers in
the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and establishes an offsetting payable
for securities sold short for the securities due on settlement. The proceeds
are retained by the broker as collateral for the short position. The
liability is marked to market and the Portfolio is required to pay the
lending broker any dividend or interest income earned while the short
position is open. A gain or loss is recorded when the security is delivered
to the broker. The Portfolio may recognize a loss on the transaction if the
market value of the securities sold increases before the securities are
delivered.

<PAGE>
TAX-MANAGED GROWTH PORTFOLIO AS OF JUNE 30, 1999
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) CONT'D
G Other -- Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the
investments are purchased or sold. Dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain
dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed
of the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.
H Use of Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
I Interim Financial Statements -- The interim financial statements relating to
June 30, 1999 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by
independent certified public accountants, but in the opinion of the
Portfolio's management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial
statements.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
- -------------------------------------------
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR),
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eaton Vance Management (EVM), as compensation
for management and investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio.
Under the advisory agreement, BMR receives a monthly advisory fee of 5/96 of
1% (0.625% annually) of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio up to
$500,000,000, and at reduced rates as daily net assets exceed that level. For
the six months ended June 30, 1999, the adviser fee was 0.46% (annualized) of
the Portfolio's average net assets. Except for Trustees of the Portfolio who
are not members of EVM's or BMR's organization, officers and Trustees receive
remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of such investment
adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio that are not affiliated with the
Investment Adviser 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 period ended June 30, 1999, no significant amounts
have been deferred.
Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above
organizations.
3 Investment Transactions
- -------------------------------------------
For the six-month period ended June 30, 1999, purchases and sales of
investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $1,047,848,386,
and $293,580,788, respectively. In addition, investments having an aggregate
market value of $78,848,865 at dates of withdrawal were distributed in
payment for capital withdrawals resulting in capital gains for book purposes
of $74,028,808. During the six months ended June 30, 1999, investors
contributed securities with a value of $1,162,781,246.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investment
- -------------------------------------------
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in value of the
investments owned at June 30, 1999, as computed on a federal income tax
basis, are as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
AGGREGATE COST $ 4,260,394,031
- ---------------------------------------------------------
Gross unrealized appreciation $ 7,353,013,289
Gross unrealized depreciation (13,231,416)
- ---------------------------------------------------------
NET UNREALIZED APPRECIATION $ 7,339,781,873
- ---------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>
5 Financial Instruments
- -------------------------------------------
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk
in the normal course of its investing activities to assist in managing
exposure to various market risks. These financial instruments include written
options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and financial futures
contracts 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 Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments
and does not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk.
The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful
only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
The Portfolio did not have any open obligations under these financial
instruments at June 30, 1999.
6 Line of Credit
- -------------------------------------------
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by BMR and
EVM and its affiliates in a $130 million unsecured line of credit agreement
with a group of banks. The Portfolio may temporarily borrow
26
<PAGE>
TAX-MANAGED GROWTH PORTFOLIO AS OF JUNE 30, 1999
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) CONT'D
from the line of credit to satisfy redemption requests or settle investment
transactions. Interest is charged to each portfolio or fund based on its
borrowings at the Eurodollar rate or federal funds rate. In addition, a fee
computed at an annual rate of 0.10% on the daily unused portion of the line
of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the
end of each quarter. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or
allocated fees during the six-month period ended June 30, 1999.
7 Fiscal Year End Change
- -------------------------------------------
Effective November 1, 1998, the Portfolio changed its fiscal year-end to
December 31.
