Eaton Vance Closed-end Equity Funds Declare Early Monthly Distributions

BOSTON, Dec. 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Eaton Vance Management, the Boston-based investment adviser, announced the monthly distributions declared on the common shares of three of its closed-end equity funds (the "Funds"). The record date for the distributions is December 30, 2011, and the payable date is January 11, 2012. The ex-date is December 28, 2011.  The declaration, record and payment dates of the regular January distribution have been accelerated to allow the Funds to meet their 2011 distribution requirements for federal excise tax purposes.  The Funds expect to declare their next regular monthly distribution in the middle of February for payment at the end of February. The distribution per share each Fund is as follows:

	Distribution
Fund	Per Share
Eaton Vance Tax-Advantaged Dividend Income Fund  (NYSE: EVT)	$0.1075
Eaton Vance Tax-Advantaged Global Dividend Income Fund  (NYSE: ETG)	$0.1025
Eaton Vance Tax-Advantaged Global Dividend Opportunities Fund  (NYSE: ETO)	$0.1167

At this time the Funds believe that a portion of the January distributions may be comprised of amounts from sources other than net investment income.  If that is the case, you will be notified in writing.  Further information will be available prior to the payment date at   http://funds.eatonvance.com.  The final determination of tax characteristics of each Fund's distributions will occur after the end of the year, at which time it will be reported to the shareholders.
