This notice supersedes all previously issued privacy disclosures.
For more information about Eaton Vance's Privacy Policy, please call 1-800-262-1122.
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 (if applicable) will file a schedule of its 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 www.eatonvance.com, by calling Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122 or in the EDGAR database on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Form N-Q may also be reviewed and copied at the SEC's 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 SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Income Trust as of November 30, 2005
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION OF TRUST PERFORMANCE
The Trust
Performance for the Six Months ended November 30, 2005
Based on its November 2005 monthly dividend of $0.115 and a closing share price of $17.09, Eaton Vance Floating Rate Income Trust (the Trust), a closed-end fund traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) under the ticker symbolEFT, had a market yield of 8.07%.(1)
Based on the NYSE share price, the Trust had a total return of -1.86% for the six months ended November 30, 2005. That return was the result of a decrease in share price to $17.09 on November 30, 2005 from $18.07 on May 31, 2005 and the reinvestment of $0.656 in regular monthly dividends.(2)
Based on net asset value (NAV), the Trust had a total return of 3.77% for the six months ended November 30, 2005. That return was the result of no change in NAV per share from $18.84 on May 31, 2005 to November 30, 2005 and the reinvestment of all distributions.(2)
For performance comparison, the S&P/LSTALeveraged Loan Index had a total return of 3.03% for the six months ended November 30, 2005.(3)
The Trusts Investments
The Trusts investment objective is to provide a high level of current income. The Trust will, as a secondary objective, also seek preservation of capital consistent with its primary goal of high current income. The Trust invests primarily in senior, secured floating rate loans. The Trust currently employs leverage in the form of Auction Preferred Shares.(4)
The Trusts investments included 365 borrowers at November 30, 2005, with an average loan size of just 0.24% of total investments. Health care, building and development (including manufacturers of building products and companies that manage/own apartments, shopping malls and commercial office buildings, among others), chemicals and plastics, leisure goods/activities/movies and cable/satellite television were the largest industry weightings.(5)
The loan market performed well, as short-term interest rates rose throughout the fiscal year. The London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) thebenchmark over which loan interest rates are typically set kept pace with the Federal Reserves rate hikes; and, yield spreads narrowed to just below their historical range.
In the wake of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, management identified several companies that were directly impacted by the storms. While these loans suffered very little price impact, management nonetheless reduced exposure to the hardest-hit companies, generally at prices above par. The hurricanes had little initial overall impact on the Trust.
The Trusts share price traded at a discount versus its NAV, as have many fixed-income, closed-end funds that employ leverage. However, most of these funds buy fixed-rate investments and often use shorter and/or floating-rate liabilities, which, in a rising interest rate environment, can cause NAV declines and impair a closed-end funds ability to earn and pay dividends. For this reason, closed-end bond funds may trade lower in a rising rate climate such as that we have recently experienced. In contrast, EFT invests primarily in floating rate instruments, which help limit declines in NAV and may add income in a rising rate environment. While it is difficult to attribute EFTs market share price decline to one factor, we believe the most likely cause has been an overall market perception that rising rates impair the net asset values of fixed-rate, closed-end bond funds. If this were the cause, the market has failed to distinguish the floating rate nature of most of the Trusts assets. The Trusts income and dividends have risen in each month during the six-month period ended November 30, 2005.
At November 30, 2005, the Trust had leverage in the amount of approximately 38% of the Trusts total assets. The Trust currently employs leverage through the issuance of Auction Preferred Shares (APS). Use of financial leverage creates an opportunity for increased income, but, at the same time, creates special risks (including the likelihood of greater volatility of net asset value and market price of common shares). The cost of leverage rises and falls with changes in short-term interest rates. Such increases in cost of the Trusts leverage may be offset by increased income from the Trusts senior loan investments.
The views expressed in 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 Eaton Vance disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and, because investment decisions for an Eaton Vance fund are based on many factors, may not be relied on as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund.
Trust 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. Yield will vary.
(1) The Trusts market yield is calculated by dividing the most recent dividend per share by the share market price at the end of the period and annualizing the result.
(2) Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in share price or net asset value, as applicable, with all distributions reinvested. Performance results reflect the effect of leverage resulting from the Trusts issuance of Auction Preferred Shares.
(3) It is not possible to invest directly in an Index. The Indexs total return reflects changes in value of the loans comprising the Index and accrual of interest and does not reflect the expenses that would have been incurred if an investor individually purchased or sold the loans represented in the Index. Unlike the Trust, the Indexs return does not reflect the effect of leverage, such as the issuance of Auction Preferred Shares.
(4) In the event of a rise in long-term interest rates, the value of the Trusts investment portfolio could decline, which would reduce the asset coverage for its Auction Preferred Shares.
(5) Holdings and industry weightings are subject to change due to active management.

In the event of a rise in long-term interest rates, the value of the Trusts investment portfolio could decline, which would reduce the asset coverage for its Auction Preferred Shares.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value or share price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. 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 Trusts current performance may be lower or higher than the quoted return.

PIK - Payment In Kind.
(1) Senior floating-rate interests often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. However, it is anticipated that the senior floating-rate interests will have an expected average life of approximately two to three years. The stated interest rate represents the weighted average interest rate of all contracts within the senior loan facility. Senior Loans typically have rates of interest which are redetermined either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are primarily the London-Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), and secondarily the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks (the "Prime Rate") and the certificate of deposit ("CD") rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders.
(2) Unfunded loan commitments. See Note 1E for description.
(3) Non-income producing security.
(4) Defaulted security. Currently the issuer is in default with respect to interest payments.
(5) Security valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Trust.
(6) Security exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At November 30, 2005, the aggregate value of the securities is $32,574,428 or 4.6% of the Trust's net assets.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Income Trust (the Trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a closed-end management investment company. The Trust, which was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on April 28, 2004, seeks to provide a high level of current income. The Trust will, as a secondary objective, also seek preservation of capital to the extent consistent with its primary goal of high current income. The Trust pursues its objectives by investing primarily in senior, secured floating rate loans (Senior Loans). The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Trust. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation Certain Senior Loans are deemed to be liquid because reliable market quotations are readily available for them. Liquid Senior Loans are valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service. Other Senior Loans are valued at fair value by the Trust's investment adviser, Eaton Vance Management (EVM), under procedures approved by the Trustees. In connection with determining the fair value of a Senior Loan, the investment adviser makes an assessment of the likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the Senior Loan. The primary factors considered by the investment adviser when making this assessment are (i) the creditworthiness of the borrower, (ii) the value of the collateral backing the Senior Loan, and (iii) the priority of the Senior Loan versus other creditors of the borrower. If, based on its assessment, the investment adviser believes there is a reasonable likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the Senior Loan, the investment adviser will determine the fair value of the Senior Loan using a matrix pricing approach that considers the yield on the Senior Loan relative to yields on other loan interests issued by companies of comparable credit quality. If, based on its assessment, the investment adviser believes there is not a reasonable likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the Senior Loan, the investment adviser will determine the fair value of the Senior Loan using analyses that include, but are not limited to (i) a comparison of the value of the borrower's outstanding equity and debt to that of comparable public companies; (ii) a discounted cash flow analysis; or (iii) when the investment adviser believes it is likely that a borrower will be liquidated or sold, an analysis of the terms of such liquidation or sale. In certain cases, the investment adviser will use a combination of analytical methods to determine fair value, such as when only a portion of a borrower's assets are likely to be sold. In conducting its assessment and analyses for purposes of determining fair value of a Senior Loan, the investment adviser will use its discretion and judgment in considering and appraising such factors, data and information and the relative weight to be given thereto as it deems relevant, including without limitation, some or all of the following: (i) the fundamental characteristics of and fundamental analytical data relating to the Senior Loan, including the cost, size, current interest rate, maturity and base lending rate of the Senior Loan, the terms and conditions of the Senior Loan and any related agreements, and the position of the Senior Loan in the Borrower's debt structure; (ii) the nature, adequacy and value of the collateral securing the Senior Loan, including the Trust's rights, remedies and interests with respect to the collateral; (iii) the creditworthiness of the Borrower, based on an evaluation of, among other things, its financial condition, financial statements and information about the Borrower's business, cash flows, capital structure and future prospects; (iv) information relating to the market for the Senior Loan, including price quotations for and trading in the Senior Loan and interests in similar Senior Loans and the market environment and investor attitudes towards the Senior Loan and interests in similar Senior Loans; (v) the experience, reputation, stability and financial condition of the agent and any intermediate participants in the Senior Loan; and (vi) general economic and market conditions affecting the fair value of the Senior Loan.
Debt obligations (other than short-term obligations maturing in sixty days or less), including listed securities and securities for which price quotations are available and forward contracts, will normally be valued on the basis of market valuations furnished by dealers or pricing services. Financial futures contracts and options thereon listed on commodity exchanges are valued at closing settlement prices. Over-the-counter options are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices provided by dealers. Marketable securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. The value of interest rate swaps will be based upon a dealer quotation. Short-term obligations and money market securities maturing in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost which approximates value. Investments for which reliable market quotations are unavailable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Trust. Occasionally, events affecting the value of foreign securities may occur between the time trading is completed abroad and the close of the Exchange which will not be reflected in the computation of the Trust's net asset value (unless the Trust deems that such event would materially affect its net asset value in which case an adjustment would be made
26
Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Income Trust as of November 30, 2005
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONT'D
and reflected in such computation). The Trust may rely on an independent fair valuation service in making any such adjustment as to the value of foreign equity securities.
B Income Interest income from Senior Loans is recorded on the accrual basis at the then-current interest rate, while all other interest income is determined on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities.
C Federal Taxes The Trust'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 taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. At May 31, 2005, the Trust, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryover of $1,477,364 which will reduce the Trust's taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Trust of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryover will expire on May 31, 2013.
Additionally, at May 31, 2005, the Trust had net capital losses of $2,081,954 attributable to security transactions incurred after October 31, 2004. These are treated as arising on the first day of the Trust's current taxable year.
D Investment Transactions Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from such transactions are determined using the specific identification method. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the transaction date. The securities so purchased are subject to market fluctuations during this period. To the extent that when-issued or delayed delivery purchases are outstanding, the Trust instructs the custodian to segregate assets in a separate account, with a current value at least equal to the amount of its purchase commitments.
E Unfunded Loan Commitments The Trust may enter into certain credit agreements all or a portion of which may be unfunded. The Trust is obligated to fund these commitments at the Borrower's discretion. These commitments are disclosed in the accompanying Portfolio of Investments.
F Offering Costs Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with the offering of the common shares and preferred shares were recorded as a reduction of capital paid in excess of par applicable to common shares.
G Expense Reduction Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT) serves as custodian of the Trust. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, IBT receives a fee reduced by credits which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Trust maintains with IBT. All credit balances used to reduce the Trust's custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses on the Statement of Operations.
H Written Options Upon the writing of a call or a put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Trust 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 value of the option written in accordance with the Trust's 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 is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Trust. The Trust, as writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities 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 underlying the written option.
I Purchased Options Upon the purchase of a call or put option, the premium paid by the Trust is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment. The amount of the investment is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased, in accordance with the Trust's policies on investment valuations discussed above. If an option which the Trust has purchased expires on the stipulated expiration date, the Trust will realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. If the Trust enters into a closing sale transaction, the Trust 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. If the Trust exercises a put option, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. If the Trust exercises a call option, the cost of the security which the Trust purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONT'D
J Financial Futures Contracts Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Trust is required to deposit an amount (initial margin) either in cash or securities equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price indicated in the financial futures contract. Subsequent payments are made or received by the Trust (margin maintenance) each day, dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying securities, and are recorded for book purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Trust.
If the Trust enters into a closing transaction, the Trust will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the financial futures contract to sell and the financial futures contract to buy. The Trust's investment in financial futures contracts is designed only to hedge against anticipated future changes in interest rates. Should interest rates move unexpectedly, the Trust may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss.
K Reverse Repurchase Agreements The Trust may enter into reverse repurchase agreements. Under such an agreement, the Trust temporarily transfers possession, but not ownership, of a security to a counterparty, in return for cash. At the same time, the Trust agrees to repurchase the security at an agreed-upon price and time in the future. The Trust may enter into reverse repurchase agreements for temporary purposes, such as to Trust withdrawals, or for use as hedging instruments where the underlying security is denominated in a foreign currency. As a form of leverage, reverse repurchase agreements may increase the risk of fluctuation in the market value of the Trust's assets or in its yield. Liabilities to counterparties under reverse repurchase agreements are recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities at the same time at which cash is received by the Trust. The securities underlying such agreements continue to be treated as owned by the Trust and remain in the Portfolio of Investments. Interest charged on amounts borrowed by the Trust under reverse repurchase agreements is accrued daily.
L Total Return Swaps The Trust may enter into swap contracts to hedge against fluctuations in securities prices, interest rates or market conditions; to change the duration of the overall portfolio; to mitigate default risk; or for other risk management purposes. Pursuant to these agreements, the Trust makes monthly payments at a rate equal to a predetermined spread to the one-month LIBOR. In exchange, the Trust receives payments based on the rate of return of a benchmark industry index. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains and losses. Payments received or made at the end of the measurement period are recorded as realized gains and losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between the rate of interest and the benchmark industry index. The Trust is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. However, the Trust does not anticipate non-performance by the counterparty. Risk may also arise from the unanticipated movements in value of interest rates or the index.
M Credit Default Swaps The Trust may enter into credit default swap contracts for risk management purposes, including diversification. When the Trust is the buyer of a credit default swap contract, the Trust is entitled to receive the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation from the counterparty to the contract in the event of a default by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer, on the debt obligation. In return, the Trust would pay the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default has occurred. If no default occurs, the Trust would have spent the stream of payments and received no benefit from the contract. When the Trust is the seller of a credit default swap contract, it receives the stream of payments, but is obligated to pay upon default of the referenced debt obligation. As the seller, the Trust would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Trust would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. The Trust will segregate assets in the form of cash and cash equivalents in an amount equal to the aggregate market value of the credit default swaps of which it is the seller, marked to market on a daily basis. These transactions involve certain risks, including the risk that the seller may be unable to fulfill the transaction.
N 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.
O Indemnifications Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust, and shareholders are indemnified against personal liability for obligations of the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into agreements with service
28
Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Income Trust as of November 30, 2005
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONT'D
providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred.
P Interim Financial Statements The interim financial statements relating to November 30, 2005 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by an Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, but in the opinion of the Trust's management reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.
2 Auction Preferred Shares
The Trust issued 3,480 shares of Auction Preferred Shares (APS) Series A, 3,480 shares of Auction Preferred Shares (APS) Series B, 3,480 shares of Auction Preferred Shares (APS) Series C, 3,480 shares of Auction Preferred Shares (APS) Series D, and 3,480 shares of Auction Preferred Shares (APS) Series E on September 16, 2004 in a public offering. The underwriting discount and other offering costs were recorded as a reduction of the capital of the common shares. Dividends on the APS Series A, Series B, and Series C, which accrue daily, are cumulative at a rate which was established at the offering of the APS and have been reset every 7 days thereafter by an auction. Dividends on the APS Series D and Series E, which accrue daily, are cumulative at a rate which was established at the offering of the APS and have been reset every 28 days thereafter by an auction. Dividend rates ranged from 2.80.% to 3.95% for Series A shares, 3.00% to 3.94% for Series B shares, 3.00% to 3.94% for Series C shares, 3.25% to 4.00% for Series D shares, and 3.30% to 4.00% for Series E shares.
The APS are redeemable at the option of the Trust, at a redemption price equal to $25,000 per share, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends on any dividend payment date. The APS are also subject to mandatory redemption at a redemption price equal to $25,000 per share, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends, if the Trust is in default for an extended period on its asset maintenance requirements with respect to the APS. If the dividends on the APS shall remain unpaid in an amount equal to two full years' dividends, the holders of the APS as a class have the right to elect a majority of the Board of Trustees. In general, the holders of the APS and the common shares have equal voting rights of one vote per share, except that the holders of the APS, as a separate class, have the right to elect at least two members of the Board of Trustees. The APS have a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends. The Trust is required to maintain certain asset coverage with respect to the APS as defined in the Trust's By-Laws and the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Trust pays an annual fee equivalent to 0.25% of the preferred shares' liquidation value for the remarketing efforts associated with the preferred auctions.
3 Distribution to Shareholders
The Trust intends to make monthly distributions of net investment income, after payment of any dividends on any outstanding APS. In addition, at least annually, the Trust intends to distribute net capital gain, if any. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to preferred shareholders are recorded daily and are payable at the end of each dividend period. Each dividend payment period for the APS is generally seven or twenty-eight days. The applicable dividend rate for the APS on November 30, 2005 was 3.95%, 3.94%, 3.94%, 4.00%, and 4.00.%, for Series A, Series B, Series C, Series D, and Series E Shares, respectively. For the period ended November 30, 2005, the Trust paid dividends to APS shareholders amounting to $1,462,768, $1,512,213 $1,518,660, $1,553,453 and $1,571,616 for Series A, Series B, Series C, Series D, and Series E Shares, respectively, representing an average APS dividend rate for such period of 3.414%, 3.418%, 3.433%, 3.623%, and 3.622%, respectively.
The Trust distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principals 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. These differences relate primarily to the method for amortizing premiums.
4 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
EVM serves as the investment adviser and administrator of the Trust. EVM currently receives no compensation for providing administrative services to the Trust. The investment adviser fee is earned by EVM, as compensation for management and investment advisory services rendered to the Trust. Under the advisory agreement, EVM receives a monthly advisory fee in the amount equal to 0.75% annually of average daily gross assets of the Trust. For the six months ended November 30, 2005, the advisory fee amounted to $4,294,900.
In addition, EVM has contractually agreed to reimburse the Trust for fees and other expenses in the amount of 0.20%
29

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) CONT'D
of the average daily gross assets of the Trust for the first five full years of the Trust's operations, 0.15% of average daily gross assets in year six, 0.10% in year seven and 0.05% in year eight. For the six months ended November 30, 2005, EVM waived $1,145,309 of its advisory fee.
Certain officers and Trustees of the Trust are officers of the above organization.
5 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations and including paydowns, aggregated $265,150,987 and $288,521,106 respectively, for the six months ended November 30, 2005.
6 Common Shares of Beneficial Interest

8 Financial Instruments
The Trust 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, financial futures contracts, and swaps 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 Trust 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.

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
The Trust offers a dividend reinvestment plan (the Plan) pursuant to which shareholders may elect to have dividends and capital gains distributions reinvested in common shares (the Shares) of the Trust. You may elect to participate in the Plan by completing the Dividend Reinvestment Plan Application Form. If you do not participate, you will receive all distributions in cash paid by check mailed directly to you by PFPC Inc., as dividend paying agent. On the distribution payment date, if the net asset value per Share is equal to or less than the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions then new Shares will be issued. The number of Shares shall be determined by the greater of the net asset value per Share or 95% of the market price. Otherwise, Shares generally will be purchased on the open market by the Plan Agent. Distributions subject to income tax (if any) are taxable whether or not shares are reinvested.
If your shares are in the name of a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee, you can ask the firm or nominee to participate in the Plan on your behalf. If the nominee does not offer the Plan, you will need to request that your shares be re-registered in your name with the Trust's transfer agent, PFPC, Inc., or you will not be able to participate.
The Plan Agent's service fee for handling distributions will be paid by the Trust. Each participant will be charged their pro rata share of brokerage commissions on all open-market purchases.
Plan participants may withdraw from the Plan at any time by writing to the Plan Agent at the address noted on the following page. If you withdraw, you will receive shares in your name for all Shares credited to your account under the Plan. If a participant elects by written notice to the Plan Agent to have the Plan Agent sell part or all of his or her Shares and remit the proceeds, the Plan Agent is authorized to deduct a $5.00 fee plus brokerage commissions from the proceeds.
If you wish to participate in the Plan and your shares are held in your own name, you may complete the form on the following page and deliver it to the Plan Agent.
Any inquiries regarding the Plan can be directed to the Plan Agent, PFPC, Inc., at 1-800-331-1710.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES' ANNUAL APPROVAL OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
The investment advisory agreement between Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Income Trust (the "Fund") and the investment adviser, Eaton Vance Management ("Eaton Vance"), provides that the advisory agreement will continue in effect from year to year so long as its continuance is approved at least annually (i) by a vote of a majority of the noninterested Trustees of the Fund cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval and (ii) by the Trustees of the Fund or by vote of a majority of the outstanding interests of the Fund.
In considering the annual approval of the investment advisory agreement between the Fund and the investment adviser, the Special Committee considered information that had been provided throughout the year at regular Board meetings, as well as information furnished for a series of meetings held in February and March in preparation for a Board meeting held on March 21, 2005 to specifically consider the renewal of the investment advisory agreement. Such information included, among other things, the following:
An independent report comparing the advisory fees of the Fund with those of comparable funds;
An independent report comparing the expense ratio of the Fund to those of comparable funds;
Information regarding Fund investment performance (including on a risk-adjusted basis) in comparison to relevant peer groups of funds and appropriate indices;
The economic outlook and the general investment outlook in relevant investment markets;
Eaton Vance's results and financial condition and the overall organization of the investment adviser;
The procedures and processes used to determine the fair value of Fund assets including in particular the valuation of senior loan portfolios and actions taken to monitor and test the effectiveness of such procedures and processes;
Eaton Vance's management of the relationship with the custodian, subcustodians and fund accountants;
The resources devoted to compliance efforts undertaken by Eaton Vance on behalf of the funds it manages and the record of compliance with the investment policies and restrictions and with policies on personal securities transactions;
The quality, nature, cost and character of the administrative and other non-investment management services provided by Eaton Vance and its affiliates; and
The terms of the advisory agreement and the reasonableness and appropriateness of the particular fee paid by the Fund for the services described therein.
The Special Committee also considered the investment adviser's portfolio management capabilities, including information relating to the education, experience, and number of investment professionals and other personnel who provide services under the investment advisory agreement. Specifically, the Special Committee considered the investment adviser's experience in managing senior loan portfolios. The Special Committee noted the experience of the 26 bank loan investment professionals and other personnel who would provide services under the investment advisory agreement, including four portfolio managers and 15 analysts. Many of these portfolio managers and analysts have previous experience working for commercial banks and other lending institutions. The Special Committee also took into account the time and attention to be devoted by senior management to the Fund and the other funds in the complex. The Special Committee evaluated the level of skill required to manage the Fund and concluded that the human resources available at the investment adviser were appropriate to fulfill its duties on behalf of the Fund.
In its review of comparative information with respect to the Fund's investment performance (including on a risk-adjusted basis), the Special Committee noted the Fund's limited operating history and concluded that it was appropriate to allow additional time to fully evaluate the Fund's performance record. With respect to its review of investment advisory fees, the Special Committee concluded that the fees paid by the Fund are within the range of those paid by comparable funds within the mutual fund industry. In reviewing the information regarding the expense ratio of the Fund, the Special Committee concluded that the Fund's expense ratio is within a range that is competitive with comparable funds.
In addition to the factors mentioned above, the Special Committee reviewed the level of the investment adviser's profits in providing investment management and administration services for the Fund and for all Eaton Vance funds as a group. The Special Committee noted in particular that the Fund benefits from a contractual waiver of advisory fees and other expenses effective during the first five years of the Fund's operations. In addition, the Special Committee considered the fiduciary duty assumed by the investment adviser in

connection with the services rendered to the Fund and the business reputation of the investment adviser and its financial resources. The Trustees concluded that in light of the services rendered, the profits realized by the investment adviser are not unreasonable. The Special Committee also considered the fact that the Fund is not continuously offered and concluded that, in light of the level of the investment adviser's profits with respect to the Fund, the implementation of breakpoints is not appropriate.
The Special Committee did not consider any single factor as controlling in determining whether or not to renew the investment advisory agreement. Nor are the items described herein all the matters considered by the Special Committee. In assessing the information provided by Eaton Vance and its affiliates, the Special Committee also took into consideration the benefits to shareholders of investing in a fund that is a part of a large family of funds which provides a large variety of shareholder services.
Based on its consideration of the foregoing factors and conclusions, and such other factors and conclusions as it deemed relevant, and assisted by independent counsel, the Special Committee concluded that the renewal of the investment advisory agreement, including the fee structure, is in the interests of shareholders.

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. The investment adviser will generally support company management on proposals relating to environmental and social policy issues, on matters regarding the state of organization of the company and routine matters related to corporate administration which are not expected to have a significant economic impact on the company or its shareholders. On all other matters, the investment adviser will review each matter on a case-by-case basis and reserves the right to deviate from the Policies guidelines when it believes the situation
warrants such a deviation. The Policies include voting guidelines for matters relating to, among other things, the election of directors, approval of independent auditors, executive compensation, corporate structure and anti-takeover defenses. 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.
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 members of senior management of the investment adviser identified in the Policies. Such members of senior management will determine if a conflict exists. If a 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.
