(1) The non-voting common stock share figures reported in this table for the
various selling stockholders are based on information supplied to us, as of
February 14, 2005, by the respective selling stockholders named in the
table. As of that date, these selling stockholders had supplied us with
information indicating that, collectively, they owned more than the
$110,945,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity of LYONs currently
outstanding (which amount would be exchangeable into a maximum 1,593,803
shares of non-voting common stock). This reflects, we believe, that one or
more selling stockholders supplied us with information for inclusion in the
table and then subsequently (i) exercised their right to require EVM to
repurchase their LYONs, in whole or in part, for cash on August 13, 2002,
pursuant to the terms of the Indenture governing the LYONs; and/or (ii)
sold their LYONs in transactions exempt from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to persons who also supplied us
information with respect to the shares deliverable upon exchange of the
same LYONs.
(2) The number of shares of non-voting common stock deliverable upon exchange
of the LYONs are subject to change under certain circumstances described in
the Indenture governing the LYONs. As a result, the number of shares of
non-voting common stock deliverable upon exchange of the LYONs may increase
or decrease at any time.
(3) Assumes that the full amount of LYONs reported as held by a selling
stockholder is exchanged for shares of non-voting common stock at an
exchange rate of 14.3657 shares of non-voting common stock per $1,000
principal amount at maturity of LYONs, and that all shares received upon
exchange are offered hereunder by that selling stockholder. Since exchange
of the LYONs for shares of non-voting common stock is conditioned upon the
occurrence of specified events, and since Eaton Vance Management has the
right to pay cash in lieu of delivering shares of non-voting common stock
upon exchange, there can be no assurance that any selling stockholder will
be able to exchange its LYONs, or that it will receive shares of non-voting
common stock upon any such exchange.
(4) Calculated based on Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) of the Exchange Act, using
66,635,780 shares of non-voting common stock outstanding as of October 31,
2004. In calculating this amount for each holder, we treated as outstanding
the number of shares of non-voting common stock deliverable upon exchange
of all of that holder's LYONs, but we did not assume exchange of any other
holder's LYONs.
(5) Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") is not aware
of any position, office, or directorship relationship with the company or
its affiliates; however, Merrill Lynch may or may not have, from time to
time, acted in a financial investment advisory capacity to the company or
its affiliates.

(6) The total non-voting common stock share figure above represents the maximum
number of shares deliverable upon exchange of the aggregate principal
amount at maturity of LYONs outstanding as of February 14, 2005.
Accordingly, this figure represents the maximum number of shares of
non-voting common stock that could be sold hereunder.
The Prospectus, together with all Prospectus Supplements, constitutes the
Prospectus required to be delivered by Section 5(b) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, with respect to offers and sales of non-voting common stock
deliverable upon exchange of the LYONs.
