Item 2. Code of Ethics
As of the end of the period covered by this report, Eagle Point Enhanced Income Trust (the “registrant”) has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions, regardless of whether these individuals are employed by the registrant or a third party (the “SOX Code of Ethics”). The registrant did not amend, or grant any waivers from, any provisions of the SOX Code of Ethics during the period covered by this report. The registrant’s SOX Code of Ethics is available upon request to any person without charge. Such requests should be submitted to the registrant’s Chief Compliance Officer at (203) 340-8500, toll free (844) 810-6501 or cco@eaglepointcredit.com.
Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert
The registrant’s board of trustees has determined that the registrant has at least one “audit committee financial expert” (as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR) serving on its Audit Committee. The board of trustees has determined that Jeffrey L. Weiss satisfies the requirements of an audit committee financial expert. Mr. Weiss is “independent” within the meaning of that term used in Form N-CSR.
Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services
| (a) | Audit Fees. The aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), the registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm, for the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, were $160,076 and $167,000, respectively. |
| (b) | Audit-Related Fees. The aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services by KPMG that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the registrant’s financial statements and not reported under paragraph (a) of this Item 4 in the fiscal years ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, were $6,500, and $26,000, respectively. The fees incurred in the 2025 and 2024 fiscal years were in connection with the registrant’s filing of its registration statements. |
| (c) | Tax Fees. The aggregate fees billed for professional services by KPMG for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning in the fiscal years ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, were $89,986 and $99,467, respectively. These fees were in connection with the preparation of the registrant’s regulated investment company tax compliance and related tax advice. |
| (d) | All Other Fees. The aggregate fees billed for all other services not listed in (a) through (c) above by KPMG in the fiscal years ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, were $0 and $0, respectively. |
| (e) | (1) The registrant’s Audit Committee has adopted written policies relating to the pre-approval of audit and permitted non-audit services to be performed by the registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm. Under the policies, on an annual basis, the registrant’s Audit Committee reviews and pre-approves proposed audit and permitted non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm on behalf of the registrant. |
In addition, the registrant’s Audit Committee pre-approves annually any permitted non-audit services (including audit-related services) to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to the registrant’s investment adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the registrant’s investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant (together, the “Service Affiliates”), provided, in each case, that the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant. Although the Audit Committee does not pre-approve all services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to Service Affiliates (for instance, if the engagement does not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant), the Audit Committee receives an annual report showing the aggregate fees paid by Service Affiliates for such services.
The registrant’s Audit Committee may also from time to time pre-approve individual non-audit services to be provided to the registrant or a Service Affiliate that were not pre-approved as part of the annual process described above. The Audit Committee may form and delegate authority to subcommittees consisting of one (1) or more members when appropriate, including the authority to grant pre-approvals of audit and permitted non-audit services, provided that any decisions of such subcommittee to grant pre-approvals shall be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
The pre-approval policies provide for waivers of the requirement that the Audit Committee pre-approve permitted non-audit services provided to the registrant pursuant to de minimis exceptions described in Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and applicable regulations.
(2) None of the independent accountant’s expenses described in paragraphs (b) through (d) of this item were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X as all such expenses were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.
| (f) | Not Applicable |
| (g) | For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, the aggregate fees billed by KPMG for non-audit services rendered to the registrant and for non-audit services rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser and/or to any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the registrant’s investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant were $96,486 and $125,467, respectively. For the years ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, these fees were for the services rendered in connection with advisory, tax compliance, tax advice, tax planning and filing of registration statements during the period for the registrant and for the registrant’s investment adviser. These fees exclude any fees paid by Eagle Point Credit Management LLC, Eagle Point Income Management LLC, Eagle Point Enhanced Income Management LLC and Eagle Point Defensive Income Management LLC. |
| (h) | The registrant’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the investment adviser and/or to any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the registrant’s investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not required to be pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining KPMG’s independence. |

Item 12. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies
The registrant has delegated its proxy voting responsibility to Eagle Point Enhanced Income Management LLC (the “Adviser”). The Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures of the Adviser are set forth below. The guidelines will be reviewed periodically by the Adviser and the registrant’s independent trustees, and, accordingly, are subject to change.
Introduction
An investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), has a fiduciary duty to act solely in the best interests of its clients. As part of this duty, the Adviser recognizes that it must vote client securities in a timely manner free of conflicts of interest and in the best interests of the Adviser’s clients.
These policies and procedures for voting proxies for the Adviser’s investment advisory clients are intended to comply with Section 206 of, and Rule 206(4)-6 under, the Advisers Act.
Proxy Policies
Based on the nature of the registrant’s investment strategy, the Adviser does not expect to receive proxy proposals but may from time to time receive amendments, consents or resolutions applicable to investments held by the registrant. The Adviser’s general policy is to exercise voting or consult authority in a manner that serves the interests of the registrant’s stockholders. The Adviser may occasionally be subject to material conflicts of interest in voting proxies due to business or personal relationships it maintains with persons having an interest in the outcome of certain votes. If at any time the Adviser becomes aware of a material conflict of interest relating to a particular proxy proposal, the Adviser’s Chief Compliance Officer will review the proposal and determine how to vote the proxy in a manner consistent with interests of the registrant’s stockholders.
Proxy Voting Records
Information regarding how the Adviser voted proxies relating to the registrant’s portfolio securities is available: (1) without charge, upon request, by calling toll free (844) 810-6501; and (2) on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. You may also obtain information about how the Adviser voted proxies by making a written request for proxy voting information to: Eagle Point Enhanced Income Management LLC, 600 Steamboat Road, Suite 202, Greenwich, CT 06830 or cco@eaglepointcredit.com.
Item 13. Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Investment Companies
Information pertaining to the portfolio managers of the registrant, and information relating to the registrant’s investment adviser, is set forth below as of September 30, 2025.
The management of the registrant’s investment portfolio is the responsibility of the Adviser pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (“Investment Advisory Agreement”). Certain of the Adviser’s affiliates provide investment advisory services to pooled investment vehicles, separately managed accounts, and the registrant (collectively, the “Accounts”). The terms and conditions of the Accounts may vary depending on the type of services provided or the type of client, and these terms and conditions may also vary from client to client.
There are no restrictions on the ability of the Adviser and certain of its affiliates to manage accounts for multiple clients, including accounts for affiliates of the Adviser or their directors, officers or employees, following the same, similar or different investment objectives, philosophies and strategies as those used by the Adviser for the registrant’s account. In those situations, the Adviser and its affiliates may have conflicts of interest in allocating investment opportunities between the registrant and any other account managed by the Adviser or an affiliate. Such conflicts of interest would be expected to be heightened where the Adviser manages an account for an affiliate or its directors, officers or employees. In addition, certain of these accounts may provide for higher management fees or have incentive fees or may allow for higher expense reimbursements, all of which may contribute to a conflict of interest and create an incentive for the Adviser to favor such other accounts. Further, accounts managed by the Adviser or certain of its affiliates hold, and may in the future be allocated, certain investments in collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), such as debt tranches, which conflict with the positions held by other accounts in such CLOs, such as the registrant. In these cases, when exercising the rights of each account with respect to such investments, the Adviser and/or its affiliates will have a conflict of interest as actions on behalf of one account may have an adverse effect on another account managed by the Adviser or such affiliate, including the registrant. In such cases, such conflicts may not be resolved in a manner that is always or exclusively in our best interests.
In addition, certain of the Adviser’s affiliates (and the investment funds that they manage) may also invest in companies that compete with the Adviser and that therefore manage other accounts and funds that compete for investment opportunities with the registrant. The registrant’s executive officers and trustees, as well as other current and potential future affiliated persons, officers and employees of the Adviser and certain of its affiliates, may serve as officers, directors or principals of, or manage the accounts for, other entities with investment strategies that substantially or partially overlap with the strategy that the registrant pursues. Accordingly, they may have obligations to investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which obligations may not be in the best interests of the registrant or the registrant’s common stockholders.
Further, the professional staff of the Adviser will devote as much time to the registrant as such professionals deem appropriate to perform their duties in accordance with the Investment Advisory Agreement. However, such persons are also committed to providing investment advisory and other services for other clients and engage in other business ventures in which the registrant has no interest. Certain of the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ senior personnel and ultimate managers serve and may serve as officers, directors, managers or principals of other entities that operate in the same or a related line of business as the Adviser, and its affiliates, or that are service providers to firms or entities such as the Adviser, the registrant, CLOs or other similar entities. Accordingly, such persons may have obligations to investors in those entities the fulfillment of which may not be in the registrant’s best interest. In addition, certain of such persons hold direct and indirect personal investments in various companies, including certain investment advisers and other operating companies, some of which do or may provide services to the Adviser, the registrant, or other accounts serviced by the Adviser or its affiliates, or to any issuer in which the registrant may invest. The registrant may pay fees or other compensation to any such operating company or financial institution for services received. Further, these relationships may result in conflicts of interest that may not be foreseen or may not be resolved in a manner that is always or exclusively in the registrant’s best interest. As a result of these separate business activities and payment structures, the Adviser has conflicts of interest in allocating management time, services and functions among the registrant and its affiliates and other business ventures or clients.
As a fiduciary, the Adviser owes a duty of loyalty to its clients, including the registrant, and must treat each client fairly. When the Adviser purchases or sells securities for more than one account, the trades must be allocated in a manner consistent with its fiduciary duties. To this end, the Adviser has adopted and reviewed policies and procedures pursuant to which it allocates investment opportunities appropriate for more than one client account in a manner deemed appropriate in its sole discretion to achieve a fair and equitable result over time. Pursuant to these policies and procedures, when allocating investment opportunities, the Adviser may take into account regulatory, tax or legal requirements applicable to an account. In allocating investment opportunities, the Adviser may use rotational, percentage or other allocation methods provided that doing so is consistent with the Adviser’s internal conflict of interest and allocation policies and the requirements of the Advisers Act, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and other applicable laws. In addition, an account managed by the Adviser, such as the registrant, is expected to be considered for the allocation of investment opportunities together with other accounts managed by affiliates of the Adviser. There is no assurance that investment opportunities will be allocated to any particular account equitably in the short-term or that any such account, including the registrant, will be able to participate in all investment opportunities that are suitable for it.
In the ordinary course of business, the registrant may enter into transactions with persons who are affiliated with the registrant by reason of being under common control of the Adviser or its affiliates. In order to ensure that the registrant does not engage in any prohibited transactions with any affiliated persons, the registrant has implemented certain policies and procedures whereby its executive officers screen each of its transactions for any possible affiliations between the registrant, the Adviser and its affiliates and the registrant’s employees, officers and directors. The registrant will not enter into any such transactions unless and until it is satisfied that doing so is consistent with the 1940 Act, applicable SEC exemptive rules, interpretations or guidance, or the terms of the registrant’s exemptive order (discussed below), as applicable. The registrant’s affiliations may require it to forgo attractive investment opportunities.
The registrant may co-invest on a concurrent basis with other accounts managed by the Adviser and may do so with other accounts managed by certain of our Adviser’s affiliates subject to compliance with applicable regulations and regulatory guidance and applicable written allocation procedures. The registrant has received exemptive relief from the SEC that permits it to participate in certain negotiated co-investments alongside other accounts managed by the Adviser and certain of its affiliates, subject to certain conditions. The Adviser may determine not to allocate certain potential co-investment opportunities to the registrant after taking into account regulatory requirements or other considerations. A copy of the registrant’s application for exemptive relief, including all of the conditions, and the related order are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
In order to address such conflicts of interest, the registrant has adopted a Code of Ethics. Similarly, the Adviser has separately adopted a Code of Ethics (“Code”). The Adviser’s Code requires the officers and employees of the Adviser to act in the best interests of its client accounts (including the registrant), act in good faith and in an ethical manner, avoid conflicts of interests with the client accounts to the extent reasonably possible and identify and manage conflicts of interest to the extent that they arise. Personnel subject to each code of ethics may invest in securities for their personal investment accounts, including securities that may be purchased or held by us, so long as such investments are made in accordance with the code’s requirements. The registrant’s trustees and officers, and the officers and employees of the Adviser, are also required to comply with applicable provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws and make prompt reports to supervisory personnel of any actual or suspected violations of law.
In addition, the Adviser has built a professional working environment, firm-wide compliance culture and compliance procedures and systems designed to protect against potential incentives that may favor one account over another. The Adviser has adopted policies and procedures that address the allocation of investment opportunities, execution of portfolio transactions, personal trading by employees and other potential conflicts of interest that are designed to ensure that all client accounts are treated equitably over time.
Investment Personnel. The senior investment team of the Adviser is primarily responsible for the registrant’s day-to-day investment management and the implementation of the registrant’s investment strategy and process, with oversight provided by the Adviser’s board of managers.

* Total Assets are estimated and unaudited and may vary from final audited figures. Total assets exclude amounts invested in the equity of another investment vehicle managed by the portfolio manager so as to avoid double counting.
Compensation.
The Adviser’s investment professionals are paid out of the total revenues of the Adviser and certain of its affiliates, including the advisory fees earned with respect to providing advisory services to the registrant. Professional compensation is structured so that key professionals benefit from strong investment performance generated on the accounts that the Adviser and such affiliates manage and from their longevity with the Adviser. Each member of the senior investment team has indirect equity ownership interests in the Adviser and related long-term incentives. Members of the senior investment team also receive a fixed base salary and an annual market and performance-based cash bonus. The bonus is determined by the Adviser’s board of managers and is based on both quantitative and qualitative analysis of several factors, including the profitability of the Adviser and its affiliates, and the contribution of the individual employee. Many of the factors considered by management in reaching its compensation determinations will be impacted by the registrant’s long-term performance and the value of the registrant’s assets as well as the portfolios managed for the Adviser’s and such affiliates’ other clients.
