    Eaton Vance Municipal Bond Fund (NYSE:EIM) (the "Fund") announced today the final results of the Fund's cash tender offer for the following amount of its outstanding common shares (the "Tender Offer"). The Tender Offer expired at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on January 10, 2025.

    The final results of the Tender Offer based on a count by Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, the depositary for the Tender Offer, are provided in the table below.

    Common Shares Offered to Purchase Pursuant to the Tender Offer

    Common Shares Properly Tendered

    Common Shares to be Purchased

    Pro-Ration

    Factor*

    Purchase Price**

    Number of Outstanding Common Shares after Giving Effect to Tender Offer

    2,846,127

    18.565785%

    $10.7664

    54,076,420

    * The number of common shares to be purchased divided by the number of common shares properly tendered. The pro-ration factor is subject to rounding adjustment to avoid the purchase of fractional shares.

    ** Equal to 98% of the relevant Fund's net asset value ("NAV") per share as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on January 10, 2025 (the date the Tender Offer expired).

    Under the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, if the number of common shares properly tendered exceeded the number of common shares offered to purchase, the Fund will purchase common shares properly tendered on a pro-rata basis (disregarding fractional shares). As indicated above, the Fund will purchase 18.565785% of the common shares properly tendered. The Fund will purchase the common shares accepted for payment as promptly as practicable.

    The information agent for the Tender Offer is EQ Fund Solutions, LLC. Any questions with regard to the Tender Offer may be directed to the information agent toll-free at 1-877-732-3614.

    In addition, EIM announced that, in connection with the recent close of the Fund's Tender Offer on January 10, 2025, the Fund will commence a fourth-month measurement period, beginning March 10, 2025 through July 9, 2025, whereby if, during such period, the Fund's common shares trade at an average discount to NAV of more than 7.5% (based upon the average of the difference between its volume-weighted average market price and NAV each business day during the period, as measured at the close of the period) (the "Second Trigger Event"), the Fund will conduct a tender offer (the "Second Conditional Tender Offer") within 20 business days of the date on which the Second Trigger Event occurs. The Second Conditional Tender Offer will be for up to 5% of the Fund's then-outstanding common shares at 98% of NAV per share as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the date the tender offer expires.

    If the conditions of the Second Trigger Event are met, then additional terms and conditions of the Second Conditional Tender Offer will be set forth in the Fund's offering materials filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which will be distributed to the Fund's common shareholders, and in additional press releases, as applicable. If the number of common shares tendered in the Second Conditional Tender Offer exceeds the maximum amount of the Second Conditional Tender Offer, the Fund will purchase shares from tendering shareholders on a pro-rata basis (disregarding fractional common shares). Accordingly, there is no assurance that the Fund will purchase all of a shareholder's common shares tendered in the Second Conditional Tender Offer. The Fund may determine not to accept shares tendered in the Second Conditional Tender Offer under various circumstances, as will be set forth in the offering materials. Further information about the Second Conditional Tender Offer will be announced in future press releases and the Fund's offering materials.

    About the Fund

    Except for sales of shares pursuant to a tender offer, common shares of the Fund are available for purchase or sale only through secondary market trading at their current market price. Shares of closed-end funds (such as the Fund) often trade at a discount from their NAV. The market price of Fund shares may vary from NAV based on factors affecting the supply and demand for shares, such as Fund distribution rates relative to similar investments, investors' expectations for future distribution changes, the clarity of the Fund's investment strategy and future return expectations, and investors' confidence in the underlying markets in which the Fund invests. Fund shares are subject to investment risk, including possible loss of principal invested. Fund shares are not FDIC-insured and are not deposits or other obligations of, or guaranteed by, any bank. The Fund is not a complete investment program and you may lose money investing in the Fund. An investment in the Fund may not be appropriate for all investors. Before investing in the Fund, prospective investors should consider carefully the Fund's investment objective, strategies, risks, charges and expenses.
