PARAMETRIC TAX-MANAGED INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND Supplement to Statement of Additional Information Dated March 1, 2021 PARAMETRIC TAX-MANAGED INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND Supplement to Statement of Additional Information dated March 1, 2021 1. The following replaces the first paragraph under “Fund Management.” in “Management and Organization”: Fund Management. The Trustees of the Trust are responsible for the overall management and supervision of the affairs of the Trust. The Trustees of the Portfolio are responsible for the overall management and supervision of the Portfolio. The Board members and officers of the Trust and Portfolio are listed below. Except as indicated, each individual has held the office shown or other offices in the same company for the last five years. Board members hold indefinite terms of office. Each Trustee holds office until his or her successor is elected and qualified, subject to a prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal. Under the terms of the Fund’s and the Portfolio’s current Trustee retirement policy, an Independent Trustee must retire and resign as a Trustee on the earlier of: (i) the first day of July following his or her 74th birthday; or (ii), with limited exception, December 31st of the 20th year in which he or she has served as a Trustee. However, if such retirement and resignation would cause the Fund or Portfolio to be out of compliance with Section 16 of the 1940 Act or any other regulations or guidance of the SEC, then such retirement and resignation will not become effective until such time as action has been taken for the Fund or Portfolio to be in compliance therewith. The “noninterested Trustees” consist of those Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust and the Portfolio, as that term is defined under the 1940 Act. The business address of each Board member and officer is Two International Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02110. As used in this SAI, “EVC” refers to Eaton Vance Corp., “EV” refers to Eaton Vance, Inc., “Eaton Vance” refers to Eaton Vance Management and “EVD” refers to Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (see “Principal Underwriter” under “Other Service Providers”). EV is the trustee of each of Eaton Vance and BMR. Effective March 1, 2021, each of Eaton Vance, BMR, EVD and EV are indirect whollyowned subsidiaries of Morgan Stanley. Each officer affiliated with Eaton Vance may hold a position with other Eaton Vance affiliates that is comparable to his or her position with Eaton Vance listed below. 2.

The following replaces the first and second paragraphs under “Investment Advisory Services.” in “Investment Advisory and Administrative Services”: Investment Advisory Services. As described in the Prospectus, upon the closing of the transaction by which Morgan Stanley acquired EVC (the “Transaction”), the Fund and the Portfolio entered into a new investment advisory agreement with Eaton Vance or BMR, as applicable, and Eaton Vance or BMR, as applicable, entered into a new investment sub-advisory agreement with Parametric. Each investment adviser manages the investments and affairs of the Portfolio and the Fund and provides related office facilities and personnel subject to the supervision of the Trust's Board, in the case of the Fund, or the Portfolio’s Board. Each investment adviser and sub-adviser furnishes investment research, advice and supervision, furnishes an investment program and determines what securities will be purchased, held or sold by the Portfolio and the Fund and what portion, if any, of the Portfolio’s, and the Fund’s assets will be held uninvested. Each Investment Advisory Agreement and Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement requires the investment adviser or sub-adviser to pay the compensation and expenses of all officers and Trustees who are members of the investment adviser's or sub-adviser’s organization and all personnel of the investment adviser or sub-adviser performing services relating to research and investment activities. As described in the Prospectus, Eaton Vance serves as investment adviser for the Fund effective March 1, 2021. For a description of the compensation that the Portfolio or the Fund pays the investment adviser under its investment advisory agreement, see the Prospectus. 4. The following replaces the last paragraph under “Investment Advisory Services.” in “Investment Advisory and Administrative Services”: Each Investment Advisory Agreement and Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement with the investment adviser or sub-adviser continues in effect through and including the second anniversary of its execution and shall continue in full force and effect indefinitely thereafter, but only so long as such continuance after such second anniversary is specifically approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of the noninterested Trustees of the Trust, in the case of the Fund, or the Portfolio, in the case of the Portfolio, cast in person at a meeting specifically called for the purpose of voting on such approval and (ii) by the Board of the Trust, in the case of the Fund, or the Portfolio, in the case of the Portfolio, or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio or Fund. Each Agreement may be terminated at any time without penalty on sixty (60) days’ written notice by either party, or by vote of the majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio or Fund, and each Agreement will terminate automatically in the event of its assignment. Each Agreement provides that the investment adviser or sub-adviser may render services to others. Each Agreement also provides that the investment adviser or sub-adviser shall not be liable for any loss incurred in connection with the performance of its duties, or action taken or omitted under the Agreement, in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties thereunder, or for any losses sustained in the acquisition, holding or disposition of any security or other investment. Each Agreement is not intended to, and does not, confer upon any person not a party to it any right, benefit or remedy of any nature, except that the new sub-advisory agreement with Parametric (as described above) states that the Fund is a third party beneficiary of such agreement. 5. The following replaces “Information About BMR and Eaton Vance.” in “Investment Advisory and Administrative Services”: Information About BMR and Eaton Vance.

    July 2021 Longleaf Partners International Fund Commentary 2Q21 Longleaf Partners International Fund added 1.19% in the quarter and 8.00% year-to- date, trailing the MSCI EAFE Index’s 5.17% and 8.83% for the same periods. US markets continued the monetary liquidity fueled run to ever sillier valuation levels, while non-US lagged relatively. The majority of our holdings were positive in the quarter. The Fund’s exposure to China and Hong Kong (including Netherlands-listed Prosus, whose business is driven by the Chinese consumer) was the biggest geographic headwind. FX was a moderate contributor to the Fund, as well as the MSCI EAFE index. Despite relative underperformance, it was a solid period for value per share growth at our holdings. “Value” had a (we believe temporary) pullback vs. “growth” in the second quarter on the back of lower interest rates and various other factors. Over the last year, we have seen interest rate consensus go from “low rates forever” for most of 2020 to “rates are definitely going up” in February/March of 2021 to what now feels like magical goldilocks thinking for growth stocks in the 1-2% US 10-year range. While we cannot predict precisely what rates will do in the near term, we welcome increased volatility on this all- Average Annual Total Returns for the Longleaf Partners International Fund (6/30/21): Since Inception (10/26/98): 7.45%, Ten Year: 4.50%, Five Year: 10.64%, One Year: 34.82%.
