* | Certain Trusts estimate that they have distributed more than the amount of earned income and net realized gains; therefore, a portion of the distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s investment in a Trust is returned to the shareholder. A return of capital does not necessarily reflect a Trust’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income.’ When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Trust’s net asset value per share.

Section 19(a) notices for the Trusts, as applicable, are available on the BlackRock website http://www.blackrock.com.

Section 19(b) Disclosure

The Trusts, acting pursuant to a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) exemptive order and with the approval of each Trust’s Board of Trustees/Directors (the “Board”), each have adopted a plan, consistent with its investment objectives and policies to support a level distribution of income, capital gains and/or return of capital (the “Plan”). In accordance with the Plans, the Trusts distribute the following fixed amounts per share on a monthly basis as of June 30, 2016:

|  | Exchange Symbol |  |  |  | Amount Per Common Share |  |
|  |  |  | BGR |  |  |  | $0.0776 |  |
|  |  |  | CII |  |  |  | $0.1000 |  |
|  |  |  | BDJ |  |  |  | $0.0467 |  |
|  |  |  | BOE |  |  |  | $0.0970 |  |
|  |  |  | BME |  |  |  | $0.2000 |  |
|  |  |  | BGY |  |  |  | $0.0490 |  |
|  |  |  | BCX |  |  |  | $0.0446 |  |
|  |  |  | BST |  |  |  | $0.1000 |  |
|  |  |  | BUI |  |  |  | $0.1210 |  |

The fixed amounts distributed per share are subject to change at the discretion of each Trust’s Board. Under its Plan, each Trust will distribute all available investment income to its shareholders, consistent with its primary investment objectives and as required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If sufficient investment income is not available on a monthly basis, the Trusts will distribute long-term capital gains and/or return of capital to shareholders in order to maintain a level distribution. Each monthly distribution to shareholders is expected to be at the fixed amount established by the Board, except for extraordinary distributions and potential distribution rate increases or decreases to enable the Trusts to comply with the distribution requirements imposed by the Code.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about each Trust’s investment performance from the amount of these distributions or from the terms of the Plan. Each Trust’s total return performance on net asset value is presented in its financial highlights table.

The Board may amend, suspend or terminate a Trust’s Plan at any time without prior notice to the Trust’s shareholders if it deems such actions to be in the best interests of the Trust or its shareholders. The suspension or termination of the Plan could have the effect of creating a trading discount (if the Trust’s stock is trading at or above net asset value) or widening an existing trading discount. The Trusts are subject to risks that could have an adverse impact on their ability to maintain level distributions. Examples of potential risks include, but are not limited to, economic downturns impacting the markets, decreased market volatility, companies suspending or decreasing corporate dividend distributions and changes in the Code. Please refer to each Trust’s prospectus for a more complete description of its risks.

The Markets in Review

Dear Shareholder,

Uneven economic outlooks and divergence of monetary policies across regions have been the overarching themes driving financial markets over the past couple of years. In the latter half of 2015, as U.S. growth outpaced other developed markets, investors were focused largely on the timing of the Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed”) decision to end its near-zero interest rate policy. The Fed ultimately hiked rates in December, whereas the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan took additional steps to stimulate growth, even introducing negative interest rates. The U.S. dollar had strengthened considerably ahead of these developments, causing profit challenges for U.S. companies that generate revenues overseas, and pressuring emerging market currencies and commodities prices.

Also during this time period, oil prices collapsed due to excess global supply. China, one of the world’s largest consumers of oil, was another notable source of stress for financial markets as the country showed signs of slowing economic growth and took measures to devalue its currency. Declining confidence in the country’s policymakers stoked investors’ worries about the potential impact of China’s weakness on the global economy. Global market volatility increased and risk assets (such as equities and high yield bonds) suffered in this environment.

The elevated market volatility spilled over into 2016, but as the first quarter wore on, fears of a global recession began to fade, allowing markets to calm and risk assets to rebound. Central bank stimulus in Europe and Japan, combined with a more tempered outlook for rate hikes in the United States, helped bolster financial markets. A softening in U.S. dollar strength brought relief to U.S. exporters and emerging market economies. Oil prices rebounded as the world’s largest producers agreed to reduce supply.

Volatility spiked again in late June when the United Kingdom shocked investors with its vote to leave the European Union. Uncertainty around how the British exit might affect the global economy and political landscape long term drove investors to high quality assets, pushing already-low global yields to even lower levels.

At BlackRock, we believe investors need to think globally, extend their scope across a broad array of asset classes and be prepared to adjust accordingly as market conditions change over time. We encourage you to talk with your financial advisor and visit blackrock.com for further insight about investing in today’s markets.

Sincerely,

Rob Kapito

The Benefits and Risks of Option Over-Writing |  |  |  |

In general, the goal of each of the Trusts is to provide total return through a combination of current income and realized and unrealized gains (capital appreciation). The Trusts seek to pursue this goal primarily by investing in a portfolio of equity securities and utilizing an option over-writing strategy in an effort to enhance the Trusts’ distribution rate and total return performance. However, these objectives cannot be achieved in all market conditions.

The Trusts primarily write single stock covered call options, and may also from time to time write single stock put options. When writing (selling) a covered call option, the Trust holds an underlying equity security and enters into an option transaction which allows the counterparty to purchase the equity security at an agreed-upon price (“strike price”) within an agreed-upon time period. The Trusts receive cash premiums from the counterparties upon writing (selling) the option, which along with net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are generally available to support current or future distributions paid by the Trusts. During the option term, the counterparty may elect to exercise the option if the market value of the equity security rises above the strike price, and the Trust is obligated to sell the equity security to the counterparty at the strike price, realizing a gain or loss. Premiums received increase gains or reduce losses realized on the sale of the equity security. If the option remains unexercised upon its expiration, the Trusts realize gains equal to the premiums received. Alternatively, an option may be closed out by an offsetting purchase or sale of an option prior to expiration. The Trust realizes a capital gain from a closing purchase or sale transaction if the premium paid is less than the premium received from writing the option. The Trust realizes a capital loss from a closing purchase or sale transaction if the premium received is less than the premium paid to purchase the option.

Writing covered call options entails certain risks, which include, but are not limited to, the following: an increase in the value of the underlying equity security above the strike price can result in the exercise of a written option (sale by the Trust to the counterparty) when the Trust might not otherwise have sold the security; exercise of the option by the counterparty may result in a sale below the current market value and a gain or loss being realized by the Trust; and limiting the potential appreciation that could be realized on the underlying equity security to the extent of the strike price of the option. As such, an option over-writing strategy may outperform the general equity market in flat or falling markets but underperform in rising markets.

Each Trust employs a plan to support a level distribution of income, capital gains and/or return of capital. The goal of the plan is to provide shareholders with consistent and predictable cash flows by setting distribution rates based on expected long-term returns of the Trusts. Such distributions, under certain circumstances, may exceed a Trust’s total return performance. When total distributions exceed total return performance for the period, the difference reduces the Trust’s total assets and net asset value per share (“NAV”) and, therefore, could have the effect of increasing the Trust’s expense ratio and reducing the amount of assets, the Trust has available for long term investment. In order to make these distributions, a Trust may have to sell portfolio securities at less than opportune times.

The final tax characterization of distributions is determined after the fiscal year and is reported in the Trust’s annual report to shareholders. Distributions can be characterized as ordinary income, capital gains and/or return of capital. The Trust’s taxable net investment income or net realized capital gains (“taxable income”) may not be sufficient to support the level of distributions paid. To the extent that distributions exceed the Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, the excess may be treated as a non-taxable return of capital. Distributions that exceed a Trust’s taxable income but do not exceed the Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, may be classified as ordinary income which are taxable to shareholders. Such distributions are reported as distributions in excess of net investment income.

A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect a Trust’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income.’ A return of capital is a return of a portion of an investor’s original investment. A return of capital is not taxable, but it reduces a shareholder’s tax basis in his or her shares, thus reducing any loss or increasing any gain on a subsequent disposition by the shareholder of his or her shares. It is possible that a substantial portion of the distributions paid during a calendar year may ultimately be classified as return of capital or as distributions in excess of net investment income for income tax purposes when the final determination of the source and character of the distributions is made.

To illustrate these concepts, assume the following: (1) a common stock purchased at and currently trading at $37.15 per share; (2) a three-month call option is written by a Trust with a strike price of $40 (i.e., 7.7% higher than the current market price); and (3) the Trust receives $2.45, or 6.6% of the common stock’s value, as a premium. If the stock price remains unchanged, the option expires and there would be a 6.6% return for the three-month period. If the stock were to decline in price by 6.6% (i.e., decline to $34.70 per share), the option strategy would “break-even” from an economic perspective resulting in neither a gain nor a loss. If the stock were to climb to a price of $40 or above, the option would be exercised and the stock would return 7.7% coupled with the option premium received of 6.6% for a total return of 14.3%. Under this scenario, the Trust loses the benefit of any appreciation of the stock above $40, and thus is limited to a 14.3% total return. The premium from writing the call option serves to offset some of the unrealized loss on the stock in the event that the price of the stock declines, but if the stock were to decline more than 6.6% under this scenario, the Trust’s downside protection is eliminated and the stock could eventually become worthless.

Each Trust intends to write covered call options to varying degrees depending upon market conditions. Please refer to each Trust’s Schedule of Investments and the Notes to Financial Statements for details of written options.

Trust Summary as of June 30, 2016 |  |  | BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust |

Trust Overview

BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust’s (BGR) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide total return through a combination of current income, current gains and long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its total assets in equity securities of energy and natural resources companies and equity derivatives with exposure to the energy and natural resources industry. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. The Trust seeks to pursue this goal primarily by investing in a portfolio of equity securities and utilizing an option over-writing strategy in an effort to seek total return performance and enhance distributions.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.

Performance and Portfolio Management Commentary

Returns for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were as follows:

|  | Returns Based On
|  | Market Price |  | Net Asset Value
BGR1,2 |  | 18.02% |  | 14.30%
Lipper Natural Resources Funds3 |  | 22.22% |  | 19.55%

| 1 |  | All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions.

| 2 |  | The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV.

| 3 |  | Average return.

The following discussion relates to the Trust’s absolute performance based on NAV:

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | After experiencing a significant downturn in 2015, natural resources stocks staged a sizable rally in the first half of this year. An improving balance of supply and demand, together with the increasingly accommodative monetary policies of the world’s central banks, led to a rebound in commodity prices and fueled strong gains across the natural resources sector.

• |  | The Trust’s position in the U.S. exploration & production (E&P) company ConocoPhillips, which lagged following its announcement of a dividend cut early in the year, was among the largest detractors from performance. The Trust’s position in U.S. E&P Devon Energy Corp. was also a key detractor. The stock underperformed after the company announced it had agreed to acquire $1.9 billion of Woodford shale assets from a private E&P company. While the investment advisor believed the deal was strategically sensible for Devon Energy, the market became concerned about the debt burden the company took on to finance the deal.

• |  | Royal Dutch Shell PLC and BG Energy Holdings Ltd. completed a merger in February, whereby the Trust’s position in the latter stock contributed positively. Natural gas stocks, particularly those with assets based in the Marcellus shale also performed well during the period. These producers,

| which included Trust holdings such as Cabot Oil & Gas Corp. and EQT Corp., benefited from colder weather earlier in the period. In addition, a number of pipeline projects came online, leading to a narrowing of the price gap between the Henry Hub gas price (priced in Louisiana) and the Leidy Hub gas price (priced in Pennsylvania).

• |  | The Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The option overlay strategy had a negative impact on performance given the strength in the overall sector.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | After having maintained an underweight position in refining stocks for much of 2015, the investment advisor moved to reduce this underweight at the beginning of the period by adding positions in Valero Energy Corp. and Tesoro Corp., both of which have benefited from strong U.S. gasoline consumption.

• |  | The Trust sold out of the U.S.-based E&P Carrizo Oil & Gas Inc. and California Resources Corp. based on their relative valuations. The Fund also rotated its exposure within the oil services industry, exiting Halliburton Co. and initiating a position in Baker Hughes, Inc. In addition, the Trust reduced its position in the European integrated oil producer Total SA on the basis of its relative valuation.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | The Trust’s higher-quality bias translated to an emphasis on producers with low-cost assets, the ability and willingness to reduce costs, and the financial flexibility to adapt to low oil prices. This approach led the investment advisor to favor certain independent E&P stocks over integrated producers. Companies in the former group tend to have lower-cost assets, and they continued to demonstrate an ability to innovate and reduce costs. The Trust was underweight in the oil services sub-sector, reflecting the investment advisor’s view that industry remained under pressure from producers’ effort to scale back spending.

The views expressed reflect the opinions of BlackRock as of the date of this report and are subject to change based on changes in market, economic or other conditions. These views are not intended to be a forecast of future events and are no guarantee of future results.

The following discussion relates to the Trust’s relative performance based on the index cited above:

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | The Trust generated a negative return through its stock selection across several sectors, in particular financials, consumer discretionary and health care. An underweight to telecommunication (telecom) services and utilities also weighed on results.

• |  | Financials was the prime detractor from relative performance. Bank holdings, including Bank of America Corp. and Citigroup Inc., underperformed early in 2016 on speculation that low commodity prices would weigh further on inflation expectations and credit markets. At the same time, market volatility and uncertainty led to a sharp slowdown in mergers & acquisitions, equity & debt underwriting and trading activity, which resulted in negatively revised expectations for bank earnings reports. More recently, the group experienced weakness as the Brexit result exacerbated the concern around lower long-term rates and the perpetual Fed waiting game. Elsewhere in the sector, insurance was a drag, as was an underweight to real estate investment trusts (REITs).

• |  | Cruise operator Carnival Corp. and auto components holding Lear Corp. were the top detractors in consumer discretionary. Carnival underperformed as rising oil prices are expected to modestly pressure the company’s near-term earnings. At the same time, recent terrorist incidents have continued to weigh on US-sourced demand for European cruises. Lear underperformed on concerns around peaking domestic auto sales.

• |  | Within health care, the position in Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. weighed on results. The broader generics space has been under extreme pressure, with rival companies seeing high rates of deflation in their businesses, which has caused

|  | contagion to Teva. Concerns that the acquisition of Allergan’s generics unit will be delayed also dampened sentiment for the shares, though the timing has little fundamental impact as long as the deal closes.

• |  | Finally, the Trust’s long-standing underweight to defensive stocks, especially telecom services and utilities, proved disadvantageous in the six months. The sectors significantly outperformed amid the broad flight to safety in the period, with investors’ search for yield in the ongoing low interest rate environment lending additional support.

• |  | On the positive side, select holdings within the consumer sectors added value. Media name Comcast Corp. outperformed on better than expected earnings results. The company delivered the best subscriber growth numbers (in both Video and High Speed Data) in over eight years, confirming it is gaining share despite fears that competition from over-the-top (internet-based distribution) is driving accelerated “cord cutting”. In addition, Comcast’s operations, profits and free cash flow generation were increasingly attractive to investors seeking stability and total yield. Tobacco holding Altria Group Inc. gained as the company delivered solid earnings upside and maintained 2016 earnings growth guidance of 7-9%. The stock was also a beneficiary of the broader flight to high-yielding dividend growers in the period.

• |  | Additional contributions came from managed-care holdings UnitedHealth Group Inc. and Aetna Inc. Managed-care stocks broadly performed well on continued strong fundamentals. The companies appear to be managing cost trends well, and pricing remains solid in the majority of businesses. Though the healthcare exchanges continue to struggle, UnitedHealth has almost entirely withdrawn from these markets and Aetna has made a number of changes, including significantly raising prices, which should stabilize the business and remove this headwind. Positive developments in its services arm, Optum, further supported UnitedHealth shares as the unit won several high-profile contracts from CVS, aided by its new partnership with Walgreens Boots Alliance. Meanwhile, anticipation around the closing of its proposed merger with Humana further supported Aetna shares in the period (albeit sentiment reversed in July amid renewed uncertainty of the acquisition receiving regulatory approval).

• |  | The Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The Trust’s option writing strategy had a positive impact on performance during the reporting period.

Performance and Portfolio Management Commentary (concluded)

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | Due to a combination of portfolio trading activity and market movement during the six-month period, the Trust’s exposure to the industrials and consumer staples sectors increased, largely with respect to aerospace & defense, airlines and food & staples retailing. The primary reductions were made in financials, namely banks and insurance, and consumer discretionary, in particular internet & catalog retail.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | Relative to the S&P 500® Index, the Trust ended the period with its largest sector overweights in IT, consumer discretionary and health care. The Trust’s most notable underweights were in telecommunication services, utilities and industrials.

N/A—Not applicable as the index does not have a market price.

The following discussion relates to the Trust’s relative performance based on the index cited above:

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | The largest detractor from relative performance came from a combination of stock selection and portfolio allocation decisions in the financials sector. Falling U.S. interest rates negatively impacted overweight positions in life insurers MetLife, Inc. and Prudential Financial, Inc. as well as overweights in banks, notably Citigroup, Inc., Wells Fargo & Co. and JPMorgan Chase & Co. An underweight to real estate investment trusts also weighed on relative returns within the sector. Elsewhere, stock selection in consumer staples hindered relative performance as the grocery store operator Kroger Co. lagged due in part to concerns that food price deflation could hurt the company’s same-store sales. Additionally, stock selection in the materials and information technology sectors detracted from relative returns.

• |  | The largest contribution to relative performance for the six-month period came from stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector. Notably, the

|  | non-benchmark holding Dollar General Corp. outperformed its peers after exceeding consensus earnings estimates during successive quarters. The company has benefited from same-store sales gains and new store productivity. In industrials, a combination of stock selection and an overweight in the aerospace & defense industry boosted relative performance, as did the Trust’s non-benchmark holding United Parcel Service, Class B. Lastly, stock selection in the utilities sector outperformed the benchmark for the period.

• |  | The Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The Trust’s option writing strategy had a negative effect on performance.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | During the six-month period, the Trust’s exposure to the information technology and energy sectors was increased. Within technology, the Trust initiated a new position in QUALCOMM Inc., and added to holdings in Oracle Corp. and Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. Within energy, the Trust initiated new positions in Hess Corp., Suncor Energy, Inc., Marathon Petroleum Corp. and Anadarko Petroleum Corp. Conversely, the Trust’s allocation to the financials sector was reduced through the elimination of a position in Chubb Ltd., as well as by trimming exposure to Citigroup, Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells Fargo & Co. The Trust reduced its consumer staples allocation by exiting positions in Kimberly-Clark Corp. and General Mills, Inc., as well as by trimming its holdings in Procter & Gamble Co.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | The Trust’s largest overweight positions were in the health care, consumer discretionary and industrials sectors. Conversely, the Trust’s largest underweights were in the financials, energy and telecommunication services sectors.

N/A—Not applicable as the index does not have a market price.

The following discussion relates to the Trust’s relative performance based on the index cited above:

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | Stock selection decisions in the internet software & services sub-industry of the information technology (“IT”) sector led detractors. In particular, the Trust’s position in Hortonworks, Inc. weighed on returns after investors rotated out of higher growth names for what they perceived as safer relative investments during the first quarter of 2016. The Trust sold the position during the period and rotated into more attractive opportunities. Stock selection in the construction machinery & heavy trucks sub-industry of the industrials sector was the next largest detractor. In particular, global growth concerns centered around China-based manufacturing, impacted the Trust’s position in CRRC Corp. Ltd. The Trust exited its position.

• |  | The Trust’s underweight positioning within the automobile manufacturers sub-industry of the consumer discretionary sector led gains for the period

|  | after the group traded broadly lower. The investment advisor believes that global growth concerns could continue to hamper demand within the automobile manufacturers sub-industry, and the Trust remains underweight there. The other notable contributor to relative returns came from stock selection decisions within the oil & gas exploration & production sub-industry of the energy sector after the Trust’s position in Encana Corp. traded higher helped by recent increases in the price of oil.

• |  | Also, during the period, the Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The Trust’s options writing strategy had a positive impact on performance during the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | The Trust trimmed positions within the industrials and health care sectors, while increasing exposure to the consumer staples and materials sectors. Regionally, these sector decisions resulted in increased exposure to Europe and the Pacific Basin, and decreased exposure to the emerging markets.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | Relative to the MSCI All Country World Index, the Fund ended the period with its largest overweight positions in the IT and consumer staples sectors, and underweight positions in the financials and industrials sectors. Regionally, this resulted in overweight positions in Europe, and underweights in the emerging markets, North America and the Pacific Basin.

The views expressed reflect the opinions of BlackRock as of the date of this report and are subject to change based on changes in market, economic or other conditions. These views are not intended to be a forecast of future events and are no guarantee of future results.

The following discussion relates to the Trust’s relative performance based on the index cited above:

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | Health care stocks posted a loss and underperformed the broader U.S. equity market during the first half of 2016. Investors’ gravitation to value stocks, together with concerns about increased government scrutiny on drug-pricing practices and tax-inversion transactions, weighed on the performance of the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries.

• |  | The Trust’s negative return was largely driven by its positions in the biotechnology industry. General market weakness and heightened risk aversion in January and February pressured the performance of the Trust’s higher-beta, small- to medium-capitalization holdings in the industry. In addition, positions in a number of large-cap biotechnology holdings — including Celgene Corp., Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Gilead Sciences, Inc. and Biogen, Inc. — weighed on absolute performance. The Fund’s allocation to the pharmaceuticals

|  | sub-sector also hampered performance due to the weak showing of several holdings in specialty pharmaceutical area, such as Allergan PLC, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., Mylan NV and Shire PLC.

• |  | The medical devices & supplies sub-sector was the largest contributor to performance. Many of the Trust’s holdings in the health care equipment industry reported solid financial results, including Boston Scientific Corp., Medtronic PLC, Stryker Corp., Edwards Lifesciences Corp., C.R. Bard, Inc., St. Jude Medical, Inc. and Becton, Dickinson & Co. The health care providers & services sub-sector also contributed to results, led by the robust gain for UnitedHealth Group, Inc.

• |  | The Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. Given the negative absolute performance for the health care sector, written individual stock options made a positive contribution to returns.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | The Trust reduced its allocations to the biotechnology and pharmaceutical sub-sectors, while it boosted its weightings in the medical devices & supplies and health care providers & services sub-sectors. These allocations were the by-product of the Trust’s bottom-up, fundamental investment process.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | Believing political rhetoric will continue to fuel volatility in the healthcare sector through the U.S. elections, the investment advisor sought to build a balanced and broadly diversified portfolio.

Performance and Portfolio Management Commentary

Returns for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were as follows:

|  | Returns Based On
|  | Market Price |  | Net Asset Value
BGY1,2 |  | (3.08)% |  | (3.61)%3
MSCI All Country World Index ex-US |  | N/A |  | (1.02)%

| 1 |  | All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends and/or distributions.

| 2 |  | The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV.

| 3 |  | Performance results do not reflect adjustments related to valuation and income recognition for financial reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and therefore differ from the return reported in the Financial Highlights on page 124.

N/A—Not applicable as the index does not have a market price.

The following discussion relates to the Trust’s relative performance based on the index cited above:

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | The Trust’s underweight positioning in the gold sub-industry of the materials sector led detractors for the period. Despite a technical bounce-back in gold prices, the Trust remains structurally underweight there because of demand concerns from China, which drove the most recent downward market cycle. Stock selection in the construction machinery & heavy trucks sub-industry of the industrials sector was the next largest detractor. There, global growth worries, particularly regarding manufacturing based in China, negatively impacted the Trust’s position in CRRC Corp. Ltd. The Trust exited its position.

• |  | The Trust’s underweight position within the automobile manufacturers sub-industry of the consumer discretionary sector led gains for the period after the group traded broadly lower. The investment advisor believes that global growth concerns could continue to hamper demand, and the Trust remains underweight to the sub-industry. The other notable contributor was the Trust’s cash position, which served as a buffer during periods of market volatility over the six-month period.

• |  | Also, during the period, the Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The Trust’s options writing strategy had a positive impact on performance during the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | During the six-month period, the Trust trimmed positions in the industrials and consumer discretionary sectors and increased exposure in the consumer staples and energy sectors. Regionally, these sector decisions resulted in increased exposure to Europe and reduced exposure to the emerging markets.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | Relative to the MSCI All Country World Index ex-US, the Trust ended the period with overweight positions in the consumer staples and telecommunication services sectors, and underweights in materials and industrials. Regionally, the Trust remains overweight in Europe and North America, and underweight in the Pacific Basin and emerging markets.

Trust Summary as of June 30, 2016 |  |  | BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust |

Trust Overview

BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust’s (BCX) (the “Trust”) primary investment objective is to seek high current income and current gains, with a secondary objective of capital appreciation. The Trust will seek to achieve its investment objectives, under normal market conditions, by investing at least 80% of its total assets in equity securities issued by commodity or natural resources companies, derivatives with exposure to commodity or natural resources companies or investments in securities and derivatives linked to the underlying price movement of commodities or natural resources. While permitted, the Trust does not currently expect to invest in securities and derivatives linked to the underlying price movement of commodities or natural resources. The Trust seeks to pursue this goal primarily by investing in a portfolio of equity securities and utilizing an option over-writing strategy in an effort to seek total return performance and enhance distributions.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objectives will be achieved.

| 2 |  | The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV.

The following discussion relates to the Trust’s absolute performance based on NAV:

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | After experiencing a significant downturn in 2015, natural resources stocks staged a sizable rally in the first half of this year. An improving balance of supply and demand, together with the increasingly accommodative monetary policies of the world’s central banks, led to a rebound in commodity prices and fueled strong gains across the natural resources sector.

• |  | The Trust’s position in the U.S. exploration & production (E&P) company ConocoPhillips, which lagged following its announcement of a dividend cut early in the year, was among the largest detractors from performance.

• |  | The fertilizer producers CF Industries Holding, Inc. and OCI NV abandoned their proposed merger speculation due to the U.S. government’s crackdown

|  | on “tax inversion” transactions. The Trust’s position in CF Industries, which came under pressure on this news, detracted from performance.

• |  | The Trust’s position in the copper producer First Quantum Minerals Ltd. was also a top contributor in the semi-annual period. The company announced the sale of its Kevitsa mine for a price that exceeded the market’s expectations. The investment advisor believes the sale helps illustrate the company’s progress in improving its balance sheet.

• |  | The Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The option overlay strategy had a negative impact on performance given the strength in the overall sector.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | Early in the period, the investment advisor increased the Trust’s exposure to gold mining stocks on the strength of an increasingly positive outlook for the industry. In addition, it initiated a position in the food processing company Ingredion, Inc. on the basis of its positive view regarding the company’s specialty ingredients business. The Trust also exited its position in the European integrated oil producer Total SA based on its relative valuation, and it rotated the proceeds into Royal Dutch Shell PLC.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | The agriculture sector was the Trust’s largest allocation, followed by energy and metals & mining stocks, respectively.

The following discussion relates to the Trust’s relative performance based on the index cited above:

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | Stock selection within the real estate industry led gainers for the period, driven by the Trust’s position in Digital Realty Trust, Inc., which manages technology-based real estate, as the company reported strong financial results. The Trust trimmed the position on strength but still holds the name. Also within real estate, the Trust’s position in Equinix, Inc., a global data center company, traded higher after reporting strong earnings. The Trust added to the position during the period given positive industry trends and the company’s specific competitive advantages.

• |  | Conversely, stock selection in the semiconductor industry detracted due to the Trust’s position in Macom Technology Solutions, Inc., which sold off following the surprise outcome of the U.K.’s referendum on European Union membership. The Trust’s position in Imperva, Inc. was another

|  | large detractor after the company reported a weaker-than-expected earnings forecast. Given a more challenging environment for both of these companies, the Trust reduced the positions.

• |  | Also, during the period, the Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The Trust’s option writing strategy had a positive impact on relative returns.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | Over the six-month period, the Trust trimmed exposure within the software & services and telecommunication services industries and increased exposure to semiconductors & semiconductor equipment. Regionally, these transactions resulted in decreased exposure to Europe and the emerging markets and additional exposure to the Pacific Basin and North America.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | The Trust held its largest allocation within the software & services sector, particularly idiosyncratic opportunities in the internet software & services and data processing & outsourced services sub-industries. The Trust also held large positions in more stable cash flow businesses within the semiconductor & semiconductor equipment and technology hardware & equipment industries. Regionally, the Trust maintained most of its exposure in North America, followed by smaller weights in the emerging markets, the Pacific Basin and Europe.

Trust Summary as of June 30, 2016 |  |  | BlackRock Utility and Infrastructure Trust |

Trust Overview

BlackRock Utility and Infrastructure Trust’s (BUI) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide total return through a combination of current income, current gains and long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities issued by companies that are engaged in the Utilities and Infrastructure business segments anywhere in the world and by utilizing an option writing (selling) strategy in an effort to seek total return performance and enhance distributions. The Trust considers the “Utilities” business segment to include products, technologies and services connected to the management, ownership, operation, construction, development or financing of facilities used to generate, transmit or distribute electricity, water, natural resources or telecommunications and the “Infrastructure” business segment to include companies that own or operate infrastructure assets or that are involved in the development, construction, distribution or financing of infrastructure assets. Under normal circumstances, the Trust invests a substantial amount of its total assets in foreign issuers, issuers that primarily trade in a market located outside the United States or issuers that do a substantial amount of business outside the United States. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.

No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.

Performance and Portfolio Management Commentary

Returns for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were as follows:

|  | Returns Based On
|  | Market Price |  | Net Asset Value
BUI1,2 |  |  |  | 26.23 | % |  |  |  | 12.36 | %
Lipper Utility Funds3 |  |  |  | 20.89 | % |  |  |  | 17.96 | %

| 2 |  | The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV.

| 3 |  | Average return.

The following discussion relates to the Trust’s absolute performance based on NAV:

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | The largest detractors from absolute returns were the Trust’s positions in construction & engineering and transportation infrastructure. Broadly, European construction and infrastructure companies underperformed after the U.K. vote to exit from the European Union (“Brexit”), given the political and economic uncertainty resulting from the referendum. Notable detractors from performance included Ferrovial SA, a Spanish construction operator which specializes in large infrastructure projects, and Atlantia SpA, which constructs and manages airports and highways in Italy and abroad. Lastly, infrastructure operators in France, including Groupe Eurotunnel SA and Aéroports de Paris, also negatively impacted returns for the period.

• |  | Utilities performed strongly during the semiannual period, as central bank policy decisions and historically low U.S. interest rates created a strong demand for higher-yielding equities. The Trust’s exposure to the electric utilities industry was the largest contributor to performance, led by regulated utility operators NextEra Energy, Inc., Duke Energy Corp., and Exelon Corporation. The Trust’s exposure to the multi-utilities industry also benefited performance, as CMS Energy Corporation and Dominion Resources Inc. performed strongly. Finally, the Trust’s exposure to master limited partnerships (“MLPs”) within the energy sector contributed positively, led by pipeline operators Enbridge Inc. and Enterprise Products Partners LP.

• |  | Also, during the period, the Trust made use of options, principally written call options on individual stocks, in order to seek enhanced income returns while continuing to participate in the performance of the underlying equities. The Trust’s option writing strategy had a negative impact on returns for the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | Consistent with the Trust’s long-term investment horizon, few changes were made to the portfolio’s sector and industry allocations during the six-month period. Within the utilities sector, the Trust reduced exposure to strong performers and reallocated capital to investments viewed as more attractively priced. Notably, the Trust exited its position in utilities operator ITC Holdings Corp. and trimmed its position in WEC Energy Group Inc. on the basis of valuation. Proceeds from these transactions were used to increase exposure to CMS Energy Corporation, NextEra Energy, Inc., and Sempra Energy. Lastly, the Trust exited its position in telecommunications operator Frontier Communications Corporation, and initiated a new position in tower operator Crown Castle International Corporation during the period.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | At period end, the utilities sector accounted for approximately 57% of the Trust’s assets, with holdings concentrated in U.S. electric and multi-utilities. Against a backdrop of historically low interest rates, the demand for equity yield has led to valuations for U.S. utilities that are high relative to their historical levels, placing even greater importance on stock selection. As such, the Trust was focused on owning companies with strong management teams that offer the potential for above-sector growth in earnings and dividends. The Trust had a preference for regulated utilities over their non-regulated counterparts given their existing barriers to entry, strong balance sheets, and lower sensitivity to commodity prices.

• |  | Additionally, over 40% of the Trust’s assets were in global infrastructure operators and MLPs at period end, based on the healthy dividend yields and potential long-term capital growth they offer, along with diversification across geographies, economies and industries globally.

Derivative Financial Instruments |  |  |  |

The Trusts may invest in various derivative financial instruments. These instruments are used to obtain exposure to a security, commodity, index, market, and/or other asset without owning or taking physical custody of securities, commodities and/or other referenced assets to manage market, equity, credit, interest rate, foreign currency exchange rate, commodity and/or other risks. Derivative financial instruments may give rise to a form of economic leverage and involve risks, including the imperfect correlation between the value of a derivative financial instrument and the underlying asset, possible default of the counterparty to the transaction

or illiquidity of the instrument. The Trusts’ successful use of a derivative financial instrument depends on the investment adviser’s ability to predict pertinent market movements accurately, which cannot be assured. The use of these instruments may result in losses greater than if they had not been used, may limit the amount of appreciation a Trust can realize on an investment and/or may result in lower distributions paid to shareholders. The Trusts’ investments in these instruments, if any, are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

The following table summarizes the valuation techniques used and unobservable inputs utilized by the BlackRock Global Valuation Methodologies Committee (the “Global Valuation Committee”) to determine the value of certain of the Trust’s Level 3 investments as of period end.

|  | Value |  |  | Valuation Techniques |  |  | Unobservable Inputs |  |  | Range of Unobservable Inputs Utilized |
Assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Total |  |  | $2,963,564 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

| 1 |  | Decrease in unobservable input may result in a significant increase to value, while an increase in the unobservable input may result in a significant decrease to value.

| 2 |  | The Trust fair values certain of its Level 3 investments using acquisition cost, although the transaction may not have occurred during the current reporting period. These investments are generally privately held investments. There may not be a secondary market, and/or there are a limited number of investors. The determination to fair value such investments at cost is based upon factors consistent with the principles of fair value measurement that are reasonably available to the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate. Valuations are reviewed utilizing available market information to determine if the carrying value should be adjusted. Such market data may include, but is not limited to, observations of the trading multiples of public companies considered comparable to the private companies being valued, financial or operational information released by the company, and/or news or corporate events that affect the investment. Valuations may be adjusted to account for company-specific issues, the lack of liquidity inherent in a nonpublic investment and the fact that comparable public companies are not identical to the investments being fair valued by the Trust.

| 3 |  | Increase in unobservable input may result in a significant increase to value, while a decrease in the unobservable input may result in a significant decrease to value.

| 4 |  | During the period ended June 30, 2016, the valuation technique for a certain investment classified as preferred stocks changed to merger terms. The investment was previously valued at acquisition cost. Merger Terms became a more relevant measure of fair value for this investment.

| 6 |  | Total returns based on market price, which can be significantly greater or less than the net asset value, may result in substantially different returns. Where applicable, excludes the effects of any sales charges and assumes the reinvestment of distributions.

| 10 |  | Includes reorganization costs associated with the Trust’s merger. Without these costs, total expenses and total expenses after fees waived would have been 1.26% and 1.06%, respectively.

1. Organization:

The following are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as closed-end management investment companies and are referred to herein collectively as the “Trusts” or individually, as a “Trust”:

Fund Name |  | Herein Referred To As |  |  |  | Organized |  |  |  |  |  | Diversification Classification |
BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust |  | BGR |  |  |  |  | Delaware |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Non-diversified |

BlackRock Global Opportunities Equity Trust |  | BOE |  |  |  |  | Delaware |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Diversified |
BlackRock Health Sciences Trust |  | BME |  |  |  |  | Delaware |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Non-diversified |
BlackRock International Growth and Income Trust |  | BGY |  |  |  |  | Delaware |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Non-diversified |
BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust |  | BCX |  |  |  |  | Delaware |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Non-diversified |
BlackRock Science and Technology Trust |  | BST |  |  |  |  | Delaware |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Non-diversified |
BlackRock Utility and Infrastructure Trust |  | BUI |  |  |  |  | Delaware |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Non-diversified |

The Boards of Directors/Boards of Trustees of the Trusts are collectively referred to throughout this report as the “Board of Trustees” or the “Board”, and the directors/trustees thereof are collectively referred to throughout this report as “Trustees.” The Trusts determine and make available for publication the NAVs of their shares on a daily basis.

The Trusts, together with certain other registered investment companies advised by BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”) or its affiliates, are included in a complex of closed-end funds referred to as the Closed-End Complex.

Basis of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements of BCX include the accounts of BlackRock Cayman Resources & Commodities Strategy Fund, Ltd. (the “Subsidiary”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of BCX and primarily invests in commodity-related instruments. The Subsidiary enables BCX to hold these commodity-related instruments and satisfy regulated investment company tax requirements. BCX may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, there were no transactions in the Subsidiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions, if any, have been eliminated. The Subsidiary is subject to the same investment policies and restrictions that apply to BCX, except that the Subsidiary may invest without limitation in commodity-related instruments.

2. Significant Accounting Policies:

The Trusts’ financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Each Trust is considered an investment company under U.S. GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:

Foreign Currency: The Trusts’ books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Purchases and sales of investments are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Generally, when the U.S. dollar rises in value against a foreign currency, the investments denominated in that currency will lose value; the opposite effect occurs if the U.S. dollar falls in relative value.

Each Trust does not isolate the portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the exchange rates from the changes in the market prices of investments held or sold for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the effects of changes in exchange rates on investments are not segregated in the Statements of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those investments but are included as a component of net realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investments. Each Trust reports realized currency gains (losses) on foreign currency related transactions as components of net realized gain (loss) for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are generally treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

Segregation and Collateralization: In cases where a Trust enters into certain investments (e.g., futures contracts, options written and forward foreign currency exchange contracts), that would be treated as “senior securities” for 1940 Act purposes, such Trust may segregate or designate on its books and records cash or liquid assets having a market value at least equal to the amount of its future obligations under such investments. Doing so allows the investment to be excluded from treatment as a “senior security.” Furthermore, if required by an exchange or counterparty agreement, a Trust may be required to deliver/deposit cash and/or securities to/with an exchange, or broker-dealer or custodian as collateral for certain investments or obligations.

128 |  | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT |  | JUNE 30, 2016 |  |

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |  |  |  |

Investment Transactions and Investment Income: For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are recorded on the dates the transactions are entered into (the trade dates). Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are subsequently recorded when the Trust is informed of the ex-dividend date. Under the applicable foreign tax laws, a withholding tax at various rates may be imposed on capital gains, dividends and interest. Upon notification from issuers, some of the dividend income received from a real estate investment trust may be redesignated as a reduction of cost of the related investment and/or realized gain. Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on debt securities, is recognized on the accrual basis.

Distributions: Distributions paid by the Trusts are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Subject to each Trust’s level distribution plan, each Trust intends to make monthly cash distributions to shareholders, which may consist of net investment income, net options premium, net realized and unrealized gains on investments, and/or return of capital.

Portions of return of capital distributions under U.S. GAAP may be taxed at ordinary income rates.

The character of distributions is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. The portion of distributions that exceeds a Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, which are measured on a tax basis, will constitute a non-taxable return of capital. Realized net capital gains can be offset by capital losses carried forward from prior years. However, certain Trusts have capital loss carryforwards from pre-2012 tax years that offset realized net capital gains but do not offset current earnings and profits. Consequently, if distributions in any tax year are less than a Trust’s current earnings and profits but greater than net investment income and net realized capital gains (taxable income), distributions in excess of taxable income are not treated as non-taxable return of capital, but rather may be taxable to shareholders at ordinary income rates. Under certain circumstances, taxable excess distributions could be significant.

Net income and realized gains from investments held by the Subsidiary are treated as ordinary income for tax purposes. If a net loss is realized by the Subsidiary in any taxable year, the loss will generally not be available to offset the Trusts’ ordinary income and/or capital gains for that year.

Deferred Compensation Plan: Under the Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) approved by each Trust’s Board, the independent Trustees (“Independent Trustees”) may defer a portion of their annual complex-wide compensation. Deferred amounts earn an approximate return as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in common shares of certain other BlackRock Closed-End Funds selected by the Independent Trustees. This has the same economic effect for the Independent Trustees as if the Independent Trustees had invested the deferred amounts directly in certain other BlackRock Closed-End Funds.

The Plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of each Trust, if applicable. Deferred compensation liabilities are included in officer’s and trustees fees payable in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and will remain as a liability of the Trusts until such amounts are distributed in accordance with the Plan.

Indemnifications: In the normal course of business, the Trusts enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnification. The Trusts’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because it involves future potential claims against the Trust, which cannot be predicted with any certainty.

Other: Expenses directly related to a Trust are charged to that Trust. Other operating expenses shared by several Trusts are prorated among those Trusts on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods.

The Trusts have an arrangement with custodian whereby fees may be reduced by credits earned on uninvested cash balances, which, if applicable, are shown as fees paid indirectly in the Statements of Operations. The custodian imposes fees on overdrawn cash balances, which can be offset by accumulated credits earned or may result in additional custody charges.

Correction of Previously Issued Financial Statements: For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Distributions in excess of net investment income was overstated by $168,242 within the section “Net Assets Consist of” on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for BGY. As a result, there was a corresponding understatement of Net Assets within this section. In addition, the Statements of Changes in Net Assets and the Financial Highlights reflected the immaterial error in the Distributions in excess of net investment income and Net Assets amounts, respectively. The affiliated income disclosed in the Notes to the Schedule of Investments was overstated by $168,242 as well. Management elected to revise the financial statements to correct these errors. The corrections have no impact on the amounts previously reported for net investment income, performance or net asset value per share. In addition, there is no impact to reports previously filed for other interim or annual periods.

3. Investment Valuation and Fair Value Measurements:

Investment Valuation Policies: The Trusts’ investments are valued at fair value (also referred to as “market value” within the financial statements) as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price the Trusts would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Trusts determine the fair values of its financial instruments using various independent dealers or pricing services under policies approved by the Board of Trustees of each Trust. The BlackRock Global Valuation Methodologies Committee (the “Global Valuation Committee”) is the committee formed by management to develop global pricing policies and procedures and to oversee of the pricing function for all financial instruments.

Fair Value Inputs and Methodologies: The following methods (or “techniques”) and inputs are used to establish the fair value of the each Trust’s assets and liabilities:

• |  | Equity investments traded on a recognized securities exchange are valued at the official closing price each day, if available. For equity investments traded on more than one exchange, the official close price on the exchange where the stock is primarily traded is used. Equity investments traded on a recognized exchange for which there were no sales on that day may be valued at the last available bid (long positions) or ask (short positions) price. Generally, trading in foreign instruments is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of business on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the values of such instruments may occur between the foreign market close and the close of business on the NYSE that may not be reflected in the computation of the Trust’s net assets. Each business day, the Trust’s use a pricing service to assist with the valuation of certain foreign exchange-traded equity securities and foreign exchange-traded and over-the-counter (“OTC”) options (the “Systematic Fair Value Price”). Using current market factors, the Systematic Fair Value Price is designed to value such foreign securities and foreign options at fair value as of the close of business on the NYSE, which follows the close of the local markets.

• |  | Investments in open-end registered investment companies are valued at net asset value (“NAV”) each business day.

• |  | Each Trust values its investment in BlackRock Liquidity Series, LLC, Money Market Series (the “Money Market Series”) at fair value, which is ordinarily based upon its pro rata ownership in the underlying fund’s net assets. The Money Market Series seeks current income consistent with maintaining liquidity and preserving capital. Although the Money Market Series is not registered under the 1940 Act, its investments will follow the parameters of investments by a money market fund that is subject to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. The Trusts may withdraw up to 25% of its investment daily, although the manager of the Money Market Series, in its sole discretion, may permit an investor to withdraw more than 25% on any one day.

• |  | Futures contracts traded on exchanges are valued at their last sale price.

• |  | Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates determined as of the close of business on the NYSE. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at the mean between the bid and ask prices and are determined as of the close of business on the NYSE. Interpolated values are derived when the settlement date of the contract is an interim date for which quotations are not available.

• |  | Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the last bid and ask prices at the close of the options market in which the options trade. An exchange-traded option for which there is no mean price is valued at the last bid (long positions) or ask (short positions) price. If no bid or ask price is available, the prior day’s price will be used, unless it is determined that the prior day’s price no longer reflects the fair value of the option. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) options and options on swaps (“swaptions”) are valued by an independent pricing service using a mathematical model, which incorporates a number of market data factors, such as the trades and prices of the underlying instruments.

If events (e.g., a company announcement, market volatility or a natural disaster) occur that are expected to materially affect the value of such instruments, or in the event that the application of these methods of valuation results in a price for an investment that is deemed not to be representative of the market value of such investment, or if a price is not available, the investment will be valued by the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, in accordance with a policy approved by the Board as reflecting fair value (“Fair Valued Investments”). When determining the price for Fair Valued Investments, the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, seeks to determine the price that each Trust might reasonably expect to receive or pay from the current sale or purchase of that asset or liability in an arm’s-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon all available factors that the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, deems relevant consistent with the principles of fair value measurement, which include the market approach, income approach and/or in the case of recent investments, the cost approach, as appropriate. The market approach generally consists of using comparable market transactions. The income approach generally is used to discount future cash flows to present value and is adjusted for liquidity as appropriate. These factors include but are not limited to: (i) attributes specific to the investment or asset; (ii) the principal market for the investment or asset; (iii) the customary participants in the principal market for the investment or asset; (iv) data assumptions by market participants for the investment or asset, if reasonably available; (v) quoted prices for similar investments or assets in active markets; and (vi) other factors, such as future cash flows, interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, recovery rates, liquidation amounts and/or default rates. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such investments, the fair values may differ from the values that would have been used had an active market existed. The Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, employs various methods for calibrating

130 |  | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT |  | JUNE 30, 2016 |  |

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |  |  |  |

valuation approaches for investments where an active market does not exist, including regular due diligence of each Trust’s pricing vendors, regular reviews of key inputs and assumptions, transactional back-testing or disposition analysis to compare unrealized gains and losses to realized gains and losses, reviews of missing or stale prices and large movements in market values and reviews of any market related activity. The pricing of all Fair Valued Investments is subsequently reported to the Board or a committee thereof on a quarterly basis.

Fair Value Hierarchy: Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a fair value hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows:

• |  | Level 1 — unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that each Trust has the ability to access

• |  | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market– corroborated inputs)

• |  | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including each Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments)

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The significant unobservable inputs used by the Global Valuation Committee in determining the price for Fair Valued Investments are typically categorized as Level 3. The fair value hierarchy for each Trust’s investments and derivative financial instruments have been included in the Schedules of Investments.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the hierarchy. In accordance with each Trust’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investments and derivative financial instruments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.

4. Securities and Other Investments:

Preferred Stock: Preferred stock has a preference over common stock in liquidation (and generally in receiving dividends as well) but is subordinated to the liabilities of the issuer in all respects. As a general rule, the market value of preferred stock with a fixed dividend rate and no conversion element varies inversely with interest rates and perceived credit risk, while the market price of convertible preferred stock generally also reflects some element of conversion value. Because preferred stock is junior to debt securities and other obligations of the issuer, deterioration in the credit quality of the issuer will cause greater changes in the value of a preferred stock than in a more senior debt security with similar stated yield characteristics. Unlike interest payments on debt securities, preferred stock dividends are payable only if declared by the issuer’s board of directors. Preferred stock also may be subject to optional or mandatory redemption provisions.

Securities Lending: Certain Trusts may lend their securities to approved borrowers, such as brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges and maintains with the Trusts collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government. The initial collateral received by each Trust is required to have a value of at least 102% of the current value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities. The collateral is maintained thereafter, at a value equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of each business day of the Trust and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Trust, or excess collateral returned by the Trust, on the next business day. During the term of the loan, the Trusts are entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

The market value of any securities on loan, all of which were classified as common stocks in the Trusts’ Schedules of Investments, and the value of any related collateral are shown separately in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a component of investments at value — unaffiliated, and collateral on securities loaned at value, respectively. As of period end, any securities on loan were collateralized by cash. The cash collateral invested by the securities lending agent, BlackRock Investment Management, LLC (“BIM”), if any, is disclosed in the Schedules of Investments.

Securities lending transactions are entered into by the Trusts under Master Securities Lending Agreements (each an “MSLA”) which provide the right, in the event of default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate a net exposure to the

|  | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT |  | JUNE 30, 2016 |  | 131

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |  |  |  |

defaulting party or request additional collateral. In the event that a borrower defaults, the Trusts as lender, would offset the market value of the collateral received against the market value of the securities loaned. When the value of the collateral is greater than that of the market value of the securities loaned, the lender is left with net amount payable to the defaulting party. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of an MSLA counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency. Under the MSLA, absent an event of default the borrower can resell or re-pledge the loaned securities, and the Trust can reinvest cash collateral received in connection with loaned securities. Upon an event of default, the parties, obligations to return the securities or collateral to the other party are extinguished, and the parties can resell or re-pledge the loaned securities or the collateral received in connection with the loaned securities in order to satisfy the defaulting party’s met payment obligation for all transactions under the MSLA. The defaulting party remains liable for any deficiency.

As of period end, the following table is a summary of the Trusts’ securities lending agreements by counterparty which are subject to offset under an MSLA:

Collateral received in excess of the value of securities loaned from the individual counterparty is not shown for financial reporting purposes in the table above.

The risks of securities lending include the risk that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due. To mitigate these risks, the Trusts benefit from a borrower default indemnity provided by BIM. BIM’s indemnity allows for full replacement of the securities loaned if the collateral received does not cover the value on the securities loaned in the event of borrower default. The Trusts could suffer a loss if the value of an investment purchased with cash collateral falls below the market value of loaned securities or if the value of an investment purchased with cash collateral falls below the value of the original cash collateral received.

5. Derivative Financial Instruments:

The Trusts engage in various portfolio investment strategies using derivative contracts both to increase the returns of the Trusts and/or to manage their exposure to certain risks such as equity risk. Derivative financial instruments categorized by risk exposure are included in the Schedule of Investments. These contracts may be transacted on an exchange or OTC.

Futures Contracts: Certain Trusts invest in long and/or short positions in futures and options on futures contracts to gain exposure to, or manage exposure to, changes in the value of equity securities (equity risk).

Futures contracts are agreements between the Trusts and a counterparty to buy or sell a specific quantity of an underlying instrument at a specified price and on a specified date. Depending on the terms of a contract, it is settled either through physical delivery of the underlying instrument on the settlement date or by payment of a cash amount on the settlement date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Trusts are required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities in an amount that varies depending on a contract’s size and risk profile. The initial margin deposit must then be maintained at an established level over the life of the contract.

Securities deposited as initial margin are designated in the Schedules of Investments and cash deposited, if any, is shown as cash pledged for futures contracts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Pursuant to the contract, the Trusts agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in market value of the contract (“variation margin”). Variation margin is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and, if any, shown as variation margin receivable or payable on futures contracts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. When the contract is closed, a realized gain or loss is recorded in the Statements of Operations equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The use of futures contracts involves the risk of an imperfect correlation in the movements in the price of futures contracts and interest foreign currency exchange rates or underlying assets.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: Certain Trusts enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to gain or deduce exposure, to foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk).

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set exchange rate on a specified date. These contracts help to manage the overall exposure to the currencies in which some of the investments held by the Trusts are denominated and in some cases, may be used to obtain exposure to a particular market.

The contract is marked to market daily and the change in market value is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. When a contract is closed, a realized gain or loss is recorded in the Statements of Operations equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency. The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk that the value of a forward foreign currency exchange contract changes unfavorably due to movements in the value of the referenced foreign currencies.

Options: Certain Trusts purchase and write call and put options to increase or decrease their exposure to underlying instruments (including equity risk and/or commodity price risk) and/or, in the case of options written, to generate gains from options premiums.

A call option gives the purchaser (holder) of the option the right (but not the obligation) to buy, and obligates the seller (writer) to sell (when the option is exercised), the underlying instrument at the exercise or strike price at any time or at a specified time during the option period. A put option gives the holder the right to sell and obligates the writer to buy the underlying instrument at the exercise or strike price at any time or at a specified time during the option period.

Premium paid on option purchased (and premium received on options written) as well as the daily fluctuation in market value, are included in investments at value — unaffiliated and options written at value, respectively, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. When an instrument is purchased or sold through the exercise of an option, the premium is offset against the cost or proceeds of the underlying instrument. When an option expires a realize a gain or loss is recorded in the Statements of Operations to the extent of the premiums received or paid. When an option is closed or sold, a gain or loss is recorded in the Statements of Operations to the extent the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premiums received or paid). When the Trusts write a call option, such option is typically “covered,” meaning that the they hold the underlying instrument subject to being called by the option counterparty. When the Trusts write a put option, such option is covered by cash in an amount sufficient to cover the obligation.

In purchasing and writing options, the Trusts bear the risk of an unfavorable change in the value of the underlying instrument or the risk that the Trusts may not be able to enter into a closing transaction due to an illiquid market. Exercise of a written option could result in the Trusts purchasing or selling a security when it otherwise would not, or at a price different from the current market value.

Master Netting Arrangements: In order to define their contractual rights and to secure rights that will help them mitigate their counterparty risk, the Trusts may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with their counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between each Trust and a counterparty that governs certain OTC derivatives and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, each Trust may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. Bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may restrict or prohibit the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events. In addition, certain ISDA Master Agreements allow counterparties to terminate derivative contracts prior to maturity in the event the Trusts’ net assets decline by a stated percentage or the Trusts fail to meet the terms of their ISDA Master Agreements. The result would cause the Trusts to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty.

Collateral Requirements: For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by a Trust and the counterparty.

Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Trusts and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged as collateral and cash received as collateral, respectively. Non-cash collateral pledged by the Trusts, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a counterparty is subject to a certain minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer is required, which is determined at the close of business of the Trusts. Any additional required collateral is delivered to/pledged by the Trusts on the next business day. Typically, a Trust’s counterparty is not permitted to sell, re-pledge or use cash and non-cash collateral it receives A Trust generally agrees not to use non-cash collateral that it receives but may, absent default or certain other circumstances defined in the underlying ISDA Master Agreement, be permitted to use cash collateral received. In such cases, interest may be paid pursuant to the collateral arrangement with the counterparty. To the extent amounts due to the Trusts from their counterparties are not fully collateralized, they bear the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. Likewise, to the extent the Trusts have delivered collateral to a counterparty and stand ready to perform under the terms of their agreement with such counterparty, they bear the risk of loss from a counterparty in the amount of the value of the collateral in the event the counterparty fails to return such collateral. Based on the terms of agreements, collateral may not be required for all derivative contracts.

For financial reporting purposes, the Trusts do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements, if any, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

6. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. is the largest stockholder and an affiliate of BlackRock for 1940 Act purposes.

Investment Advisory

Each Trust entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), the Trusts’ investment adviser, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, to provide investment advisory and administration services. The Manager is responsible for the management of each Trust’s portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services to the operations of each Trust. For such services, each Trust, except BCX and BST, pays the Manager a monthly fee at the following annual rates:

Average weekly value of each Trust’s net assets:
BGR |  | 1.20%
BDJ |  | 0.80%
BOE |  | 1.00%
BME |  | 1.00%

Average daily value of each Trust’s net assets:
CII |  | 0.85%
BGY |  | 1.00%
BUI |  | 1.00%

BCX pays the Manager a monthly fee of 1.00% of the sum of the average daily value of the net assets of the Fund (excluding the value of the Fund’s interest in its subsidiary) and the average daily value of the net assets of its subsidiary, which fee is allocated pro rata between the Fund and its subsidiary based on the average daily value of their respective net assets (excluding, in the case of the Fund, the value of the Fund’s interest in its subsidiary).

134 |  | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT |  | JUNE 30, 2016 |  |

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |  |  |  |

BST pays the Manager a monthly fee of 1.00% of its average daily managed assets. “Managed Assets” mean the total assets of the Trust (including any assets attributable to money borrowed for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Trust’s accrued liabilities (other than money borrowed for investment purposes).

Expense Limitations/Waivers/Reimbursements/Recoupments

The Manager has agreed to waive a portion of the investment advisory fees on BST as a percentage of its average daily managed assets as follows:

|  |  |  | Expiration Date |
BST |  | 0.20% |  |  | December 31, 2018 |
|  | 0.15% |  |  | December 31, 2019 |
|  | 0.10% |  |  | December 31, 2020 |
|  | 0.05% |  |  | December 31, 2021 |

The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of its investment advisory fees on the following Trusts as a percentage of average weekly net assets as follows:

BGR |  | 0.050%
BDJ |  | 0.025%
BOE |  | 0.050%

The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive 0.10% of BGY’s investment advisory fees as a percentage of its average daily net assets.

These voluntary waivers may be reduced or discontinued at any time without notice.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, investment advisory fees waived which is included in fees waived by the Manager in the Statements of Operations were as follows:

BGR |  | $ | 105,139 |
BDJ |  | $ | 198,537 |
BOE |  | $ | 229,414 |
BGY |  | $ | 353,859 |
BST |  | $ | 410,856 |

The Manager provides investment management and other services to BCX’s Subsidiary. The Manager does not receive separate compensation from the Subsidiary for providing investment management or administrative services. However, BCX pays the Manager based on the Trust’s net assets which includes the assets of the Subsidiary.

The Manager voluntarily agreed to waive its investment advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees each Trust pays to the Manager indirectly through its investment in affiliated money market funds. These amounts are included in fees waived by the Manager in the Statements of Operations. However, the Manager does not waive its investment advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees paid in connection with each Trust’s investment in other affiliated investment companies, if any. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the amounts waived pursuant to this arrangement were as follows:

BGR |  | $ | 3,297 |
CII |  | $ | 6,779 |
BDJ |  | $ | 2,785 |
BOE |  | $ | 10,521 |
BME |  | $ | 4,978 |
BGY |  | $ | 26,792 |
BCX |  | $ | 5,825 |
BST |  | $ | 862 |
BUI |  | $ | 3,216 |

The Manager entered into separate sub-advisory agreements with BlackRock International Limited (“BIL”), an affiliate of the Manager, to serve as sub-advisor for BGR and BCX. The Manager pays BIL for services it provides to each Trust, a monthly fee that is a percentage of the investment advisory fees paid by each Trust to the Manager.

BME has entered into a Distribution Agreement with BlackRock Investments, LLC (“BRIL”), an affiliate of the Manager, to provide for distribution of BME common shares on a reasonable best efforts basis through an equity shelf offering (a “Shelf Offering”) (the “Distribution Agreement”). Pursuant to the

|  | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT |  | JUNE 30, 2016 |  | 135

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |  |  |  |

Distribution Agreement, BME compensates BRIL with respect to sales of common shares at a commission rate of 1.00% of the gross proceeds of the sale of BME’s common shares and a portion of such commission is re-allowed to broker-dealers engaged by BRIL.

Securities Lending

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has issued an exemptive order which permits BIM, an affiliate of the Manager, to serve as securities lending agent for the Trusts, subject to applicable conditions. As securities lending agent, BIM bears all operational costs directly related to securities lending. The Trusts are responsible for expenses in connection with the investment of cash collateral received for securities on loan (the “collateral investment expenses”). The cash collateral is invested in a private investment company managed by the Manager or its affiliates. However, BIM has agreed to cap the collateral investment expenses of the private investment company to an annual rate of 0.04%. The investment adviser to the private investment company will not charge any advisory fees with respect to shares purchased by the Trusts.

Securities lending income is equal to the total of income earned from the reinvestment of cash collateral, net of fees and other payments to and from borrowers of securities, and less the collateral investment expenses. Each Trust retains a portion of securities lending income and remits a remaining portion to BIM as compensation for its services as securities lending agent. Pursuant to a securities lending agreement effective January 1, 2015, BIM may lend securities only when the difference between the borrower rebate rate and the risk free rate exceeds a certain level (such securities, the “specials only securities”).

Pursuant to such agreement, each Trust retains 80% of securities lending income. In addition, commencing the business day following the date that the aggregate securities lending income earned across the Closed-End Complex in a calendar year exceeds the breakpoint dollar threshold applicable in the given year as set forth in the securities lending agreement, each Trust, pursuant to the securities lending agreement, will retain for the remainder of the calendar year securities lending income in an amount equal to 85% of securities lending income.

The share of securities lending income earned by each Trust is shown as securities lending — affiliated — net in the Statements of Operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, each Trust paid BIM the following amounts for securities lending agent services:

BGR |  | $ | 225 |
CII |  | $ | 172 |
BDJ |  | $ | 4 |
BOE |  | $ | 3,796 |
BME |  | $ | 387 |
BGY |  | $ | 3,956 |
BCX |  | $ | 8,323 |
BST |  | $ | 4,813 |
BUI |  | $ | 2,537 |

Officers and Trustees

Certain officers and/or trustees of the Trusts are officers and/or trustees of BlackRock or its affiliates. The Trusts reimburse the Manager for a portion of the compensation paid to the Trusts’ Chief Compliance Officer, which is included in Officer and Trustees in the Statements of Operations.

Other Transactions

The Trusts may purchase securities from, or sell securities to, an affiliated fund provided the affiliation is due solely to having a common investment adviser, common officers, or common trustees. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the purchase and sale transactions which resulted in net realized gains (losses) with an affiliated fund in compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act were as follows:

|  | Purchases |  | Sales
BCX |  | $435,002 |  | —

8. Income Tax Information:

It is the Trusts’ policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute substantially all of their taxable income to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

The Trusts file U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on each Trust’s U.S. federal tax returns generally remains open for the year ended December 31, 2015, the period ended December 31, 2014 and each of the three years ended October 31, 2014 with the exception of BST and BUI. The statutes of limitations on BUI’s U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the year ended December 31, 2015, the period ended December 31, 2014, the two years ended October 31, 2014 and the period ended October 31, 2012. The statutes of limitations on BST’s U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the year ended December 31, 2015 and the period ended December 31, 2014. The statute of limitations on each Trust’s state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.

Management has analyzed tax laws and regulations and their application to the Trusts’ as of June 30, 2016, inclusive of the open tax years and does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability in the Trusts’ financial statements.

As of December 31, 2015, the Trusts had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains through the indicated expiration dates as follows:

9. Principal Risks:

In the normal course of business, the Trusts invest in securities and enter into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the issuer to meet all its obligations, including the ability to pay principal and interest when due (issuer credit risk). The value of securities held by the Trusts may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers of securities owned by the Trusts. Changes arising from the general economy; the overall market and local, regional or global political or/and social or instability; as well as currency, interest rate and price fluctuations also affect the securities’ value.

Counterparty Credit Risk: Similar to issuer credit risk, the Trusts may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments related to unsettled or open transactions. The Trusts manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that the Manager believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Trusts to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Trust’s exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is approximately their value recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Trusts.

A derivative contract may suffer a mark-to-market loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. Losses can also occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

The Trust’s risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on OTC derivatives is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized gain less the value of any collateral held by the Trust.

For OTC options purchased, each Trust bears the risk of loss in the amount of the premiums paid plus the positive change in market values net of any collateral held by the Trusts should the counterparty fail to perform under the contracts. Options written by the Trusts do not typically give rise to counterparty credit risk, as options written generally obligate the Trusts, and not the counterparty, to perform. The Trusts may be exposed to counterparty credit risk with respect to options written to the extent the Trusts deposit collateral with its counterparty to a written option.

With exchange-traded options purchased, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Trusts since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, a Trust does not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency). Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange-traded options with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a clearing broker’s customer accounts. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be allocated on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Trusts.

Concentration Risk: As of period end, the Trusts listed below invested a significant portion of their assets in securities in the following sectors:

Energy |  | BGR, BCX |  |
Health Care |  | BME |  |
Information Technology |  | BST |  |
Utilities |  | BUI |  |
Materials |  | BCX |  |

Changes in economic conditions affecting these sectors would have a greater impact on these Trusts and could affect the value, income and/or liquidity of positions in such securities.

BOE and BGY invest a substantial amount of their assets in issuers located in a single country or a limited number of countries. When a Trust concentrates its investments in this manner, it assumes the risk that economic, political and social conditions in those countries may have a significant impact on their investment performance. Foreign issuers may not be subject to the same uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and practices as used in the U.S. Foreign securities markets may also be less liquid, more volatile, and less subject to governmental supervision not typically associated with investing in United States securities. Investment percentages in specific countries are presented in the Schedule of Investments.

138 |  | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT |  | JUNE 30, 2016 |  |

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |  |  |  |

BOE, BGY and BCX invests a significant portion of their assets in securities of issuers located in Europe or with significant exposure to European issuers or countries. The European financial markets have recently experienced volatility and adverse trends due to concerns about economic downturns in, or rising government debt levels of, several European countries. These events may spread to other countries in Europe and may affect the value and liquidity of certain of the Funds’ investments.

The United Kingdom has voted to withdraw from the European Union on June 23, 2016, which may introduce significant new uncertainties and instability in the financial markets across Europe.

As of period end, BOE’s and BGY’s investments had the following industry classifications:

Industry |  | BOE |  | BGY
Banks |  | 7% |  | 11%
Internet Software & Services |  | 7% |  | 2%
Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels |  | 7% |  | 7%
Beverages |  | 5% |  | 7%
Pharmaceuticals |  | 5% |  | 10%
Diversified Telecommunication Services |  | 3% |  | 5%

| * |  | All other industries held were each less than 5%.

10. Capital Share Transactions:

There are an unlimited number of $0.001 par value common shares of beneficial interest authorized for each Trust, with the exception of CII. CII is authorized to issue 200 million shares of $0.10 par value shares, all of which were initially classified as Common Shares. The Board is authorized, however, to reclassify any unissued Common Shares to Preferred Shares without approval of Common Shareholders.

For the periods shown, shares issued and outstanding increased by the following amounts as a result of shares issued through the Shelf Offering:

|  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 |  |  |  | Year Ended December 31, 2015
BME |  | — |  |  |  | 252,980

For the periods shown, shares issued and outstanding increased by the following amounts as a result of dividend reinvestments:

|  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 |  |  |  | Year Ended December 31, 2015
BGR |  | — |  |  |  | 59,109
BME |  | 25,472 |  |  |  | 117,681

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, BGR, CII, BDJ, BOE, BGY, BCX, BST and BUI and for the year ended December 31, 2015, CII, BDJ, BOE, BGY, BCX, BST and BUI, shares issued and outstanding remained constant.

On June 9, 2016, BME filed a final prospectus with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) allowing it to issue an additional

2,500,000 Common Shares through a Shelf Offering. Under the Shelf Offering, BME, subject to market conditions, may raise additional equity capital from time to time in varying amounts and utilizing various offering methods at a net price at or above BME’s net asset value (“NAV”) per Common Share (calculated within 48 hours of pricing). As of period end, 2,500,000 Common Shares remain available for issuance under the Shelf Offering. From August 12, 2015 to June 9, 2016, BME was authorized to issue 453,000 Common Shares under a previous Shelf Offering. See Additional Information — Shelf Offering Program for additional information about the Shelf Offering.

Costs incurred by BME in connection with the Shelf Offering are recorded as a deferred charge and amortized over 12 months.

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements |  |  |  |

The Board of Directors or Trustees, as applicable (each, a “Board,” collectively, the “Boards,” and the members of which are referred to as “Board Members”), of BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust (“BGR”), BlackRock Enhanced Capital and Income Fund, Inc. (“CII”), BlackRock Enhanced Equity Dividend Trust (“BDJ”), BlackRock Global Opportunities Equity Trust (“BOE”), BlackRock Health Sciences Trust (“BME”), BlackRock International Growth and Income Trust (“BGY”), BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust (“BCX”), BlackRock Utility and Infrastructure Trust (“BUI”) and BlackRock Science and Technology Trust (“BST” and together with BGR, CII, BDJ, BOE, BME, BGY, BCX and BUI, each a “Trust,” and, collectively, the “Trusts”) met in person on April 28, 2016 (the “April Meeting”) and June 9-10, 2016 (the “June Meeting”) to consider the approval of each Trust’s investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), each Trust’s investment advisor. The Board of each of BGR and BCX also considered the approval of the sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) among the Manager, BlackRock International Limited (the “Sub-Advisor”), and the Trust. The Manager and the Sub-Advisor are referred to herein as “BlackRock”. The Advisory Agreements and the Sub-Advisory Agreements are referred to herein as the “Agreements.”

Activities and Composition of the Board

On the date of the June Meeting, the Board of each Trust consisted of eleven individuals, nine of whom were not “interested persons” of the Trust as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) (the “Independent Board Members”). The Board Members are responsible for the oversight of the operations of its Trust and perform the various duties imposed on the directors of investment companies by the 1940 Act. The Independent Board Members have retained independent legal counsel to assist them in connection with their duties. The Chair of each Board is an Independent Board Member. Each Board has established five standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Governance and Nominating Committee, a Compliance Committee, a Performance Oversight Committee, and an Executive Committee, each of which is chaired by an Independent Board Member and composed of Independent Board Members (except for the Executive Committee, which also has one interested Board Member).

The Agreements

Pursuant to the 1940 Act, each Board is required to consider the continuation of the Advisory Agreement for its Trust, and with respect to BGR and BCX, the Sub-Advisory Agreement, on an annual basis. Each Board has four quarterly meetings per year, each extending over two days, a fifth one-day meeting to consider specific information surrounding the consideration of renewing the Agreement(s) for its Trust and additional in-person and telephonic meetings as needed. In connection with this year-long deliberative process, each Board assessed, among other things, the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to its Trust by BlackRock, BlackRock’s personnel and affiliates, including, as applicable; investment management, administrative, and shareholder services; the oversight of fund service providers; marketing; risk oversight; compliance; and ability to meet applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Each Board, acting directly and through its committees, considers at each of its meetings, and from time to time as appropriate, factors that are relevant to its annual consideration of the renewal of the Agreement(s) for its Trust, including the services and support provided by BlackRock to the Trust and its shareholders. BlackRock also furnished additional information to each Board in response to specific questions from the Board. This additional information is discussed further below in the section titled “Board Considerations in Approving the Agreements.” Among the matters each Board considered were: (a) investment performance for one-year, three-year, five-year, ten-year, and/or since inception periods, as applicable, against peer funds, applicable benchmarks, and performance metrics, as applicable, as well as senior management’s and portfolio managers’ analysis of the reasons for any over-performance or underperformance relative to its peers, benchmarks, and other performance metrics, as applicable; (b) fees, including advisory, administration, if applicable, paid to BlackRock and its affiliates by the Trust for services; (c) Trust operating expenses and how BlackRock allocates expenses to the Trust; (d) the resources devoted to, risk oversight of, and compliance reports relating to, implementation of the Trust’s investment objective(s), policies and restrictions, and meeting regulatory requirements; (e) the Trust’s compliance with its compliance policies and procedures; (f) the nature, cost and character of non-investment management services provided by BlackRock and its affiliates; (g) BlackRock’s and other service providers’ internal controls and risk and compliance oversight mechanisms; (h) BlackRock’s implementation of the proxy voting policies approved by the Board; (i) the use of brokerage commissions and execution quality of portfolio transactions; (j) BlackRock’s implementation of the Trust’s valuation and liquidity procedures; (k) an analysis of management fees for products with similar investment mandates across the open-end fund, closed-end fund and institutional account product channels, as applicable, and the similarities and differences between these products and the services provided as compared to the Trust; (l) BlackRock’s compensation methodology for its investment professionals and the incentives and accountability it creates, along with investment professionals’ investments in the fund(s) they manage; and (m) periodic updates on BlackRock’s business.

Board Considerations in Approving the Agreements

The Approval Process: Prior to the April Meeting, each Board requested and received materials specifically relating to the Agreement(s) for its Trust. Each Board is continuously engaged in a process with its independent legal counsel and BlackRock to review the nature and scope of the information provided to better assist its deliberations. The materials provided to the Board of each Trust in connection with the April Meeting included (a) information independently compiled and prepared by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) on Trust fees and expenses as compared with a peer group of funds as determined by Broadridge (“Expense Peers”) and the investment performance of the Trust as compared with a peer

|  | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT |  | JUNE 30, 2016 |  | 141

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements (continued) |  |  |  |

group of funds as determined by Broadridge,1 as well as the performance of the Trust as compared with its custom benchmark; (b) information on the profits realized by BlackRock and its affiliates pursuant to the Trust’s Agreement(s) and a discussion of fall-out benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates; (c) a general analysis provided by BlackRock concerning investment management fees charged to other clients, such as institutional clients, sub-advised mutual funds, and open-end funds, under similar investment mandates, as applicable; (d) review of non-management fees; (e) the existence, impact and sharing of potential economies of scale; and (f) a summary of aggregate amounts paid by the Trust to BlackRock.

At the April Meeting, each Board reviewed materials relating to its consideration of the Agreement(s) for its Trust. As a result of the discussions that occurred during the April Meeting, and as a culmination of each Board’s year-long deliberative process, each Board presented BlackRock with questions and requests for additional information. BlackRock responded to these requests with additional written information in advance of the June Meeting.

At the June Meeting, each Board, including the Independent Board Members, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Manager and its Trust for a one-year term ending June 30, 2017. The Board of each of BGR and BCX, including the Independent Board Members, also unanimously approved the continuation of the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the Sub-Advisor, with respect to its Trust, for a one-year term ending June 30, 2017. In approving the continuation of the Agreement(s) for its Trust, each Board considered: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by BlackRock; (b) the investment performance of the Trust; (c) the advisory fee and the cost of the services and profits to be realized by BlackRock and its affiliates from their relationship with the Trust; (d) the Trust’s costs to investors compared to the costs of Expense Peers and performance compared to the relevant performance metrics as previously discussed; (e) the sharing of potential economies of scale; (f) fall-out benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Trust; and (g) other factors deemed relevant by the Board Members.

Each Board also considered other matters it deemed important to the approval process, such as other payments made to BlackRock or its affiliates relating to securities lending and cash management, services related to the valuation and pricing of Trust portfolio holdings, and advice from independent legal counsel with respect to the review process and materials submitted for the Board’s review. Each Board noted the willingness of BlackRock personnel to engage in open, candid discussions with the Board. Each Board did not identify any particular information as determinative, and each Board Member may have attributed different weights to the various items considered.

A. Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services Provided by BlackRock: Each Board, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed the nature, extent and quality of services provided by BlackRock, including the investment advisory services and the resulting performance of its Trust. Throughout the year, each Board compared its Trust’s performance to the performance of a comparable group of closed-end funds, relevant benchmark, and performance metrics, as applicable. Each Board met with BlackRock’s senior management personnel responsible for investment activities, including the senior investment officers. Each Board also reviewed the materials provided by its Trust’s portfolio management team discussing the Trust’s performance and the Trust’s investment objective(s), strategies and outlook.

Each Board considered, among other factors, with respect to BlackRock: the number, education and experience of investment personnel generally and its Trust’s portfolio management team; BlackRock’s research capabilities; investments by portfolio managers in the funds they manage; portfolio trading capabilities; use of technology; commitment to compliance; credit analysis capabilities; risk analysis and oversight capabilities; and the approach to training and retaining portfolio managers and other research, advisory and management personnel. Each Board engaged in a review of BlackRock’s compensation structure with respect to the Trust’s portfolio management team and BlackRock’s ability to attract and retain high-quality talent and create performance incentives.

In addition to investment advisory services, each Board considered the quality of the administrative and other non-investment advisory services provided to its Trust. BlackRock and its affiliates provide each Trust with certain administrative, shareholder, and other services (in addition to any such services provided to the Trust by third parties) and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the operations of the Trust. In particular, BlackRock and its affiliates provide each Trust with administrative services including, among others: (i) preparing disclosure documents, such as the prospectus and the statement of additional information in connection with the initial public offering, and with respect to BME, registration statements in connection with BME’s equity shelf program, and periodic shareholder reports; (ii) preparing communications with analysts to support secondary market trading of the Trust; (iii) preparing periodic filings with regulators; (iv) oversight of daily accounting and pricing; (v) preparing periodic filings with regulators and stock exchanges; (vi) overseeing and coordinating the activities of other service providers; (vii) organizing Board meetings and preparing the materials for such Board meetings; (viii) providing legal and compliance support; (ix) furnishing analytical and other support to assist the Board in its consideration of strategic issues such as the merger, consolidation or repurposing of certain closed-end funds; and (x) performing other administrative

142 |  | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT |  | JUNE 30, 2016 |  |

functions necessary for the operation of the Trust, such as tax reporting, fulfilling regulatory filing requirements and call center services. Each Board reviewed the structure and duties of BlackRock’s fund administration, shareholder services, and legal & compliance departments and considered BlackRock’s policies and procedures for assuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

B. The Investment Performance of the Trusts and BlackRock: Each Board, including the Independent Board Members, also reviewed and considered the performance history of its Trust. In preparation for the April Meeting, the Board of each Trust was provided with reports independently prepared by Broadridge, which included a comprehensive analysis of the Trust’s performance. Each Board also reviewed a narrative and statistical analysis of the Broadridge data that was prepared by BlackRock. In connection with its review, the Board of each Trust received and reviewed information regarding the investment performance, based on net asset value (NAV), of the Trust as compared to other funds in its applicable Broadridge category and the performance of the Trust as compared with its custom benchmark. Each Board was provided with a description of the methodology used by Broadridge to select peer funds and periodically meets with Broadridge representatives to review its methodology. Each Board was provided with information on the composition of the Broadridge performance universes and expense universes. Each Board and its Performance Oversight Committee regularly review, and meet with Trust management to discuss, the performance of its Trust throughout the year.

In evaluating performance, each Board recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. Further, each Board recognized that it is possible that long-term performance can be adversely affected by even one period of significant underperformance so that a single investment decision or theme has the ability to affect long-term performance disproportionately.

The Board of BST noted that for each of the one-year and since-inception periods reported, BST exceeded its customized benchmark. BlackRock believes that performance relative to the customized benchmark is an appropriate performance metric for BST.

The Board of each of BCX and BUI noted that for each of the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods reported, its Trust exceeded its customized benchmark. The since inception period for BCX and BUI is as of the customized benchmark creation date. BlackRock believes that performance relative to the customized benchmark is an appropriate performance metric for BCX and BUI.

The Board of BME noted that for the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods reported, BME exceeded, exceeded and underperformed its customized benchmark. The since inception period for BME is as of the customized benchmark creation date. BlackRock believes that performance relative to the customized benchmark is an appropriate performance metric for BME.

The Board of BGR noted that for each of the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods reported, BGR underperformed its customized benchmark. The since inception period for BGR is as of the customized benchmark creation date. BlackRock believes that performance relative to the customized benchmark is an appropriate performance metric for BGR. The Board and BlackRock reviewed and discussed the reasons for BGR’s underperformance during these periods. The Board was informed that, among other things, poor sub-sector allocation decisions was a primary detractor, coupled with the portfolio management team’s decision to increase BGR’s oil price sensitivity.

The Board of CII noted that for the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods reported, CII exceeded, underperformed and underperformed, respectively, its customized benchmark. The since inception period for CII is as of the customized benchmark creation date. BlackRock believes that performance relative to the customized benchmark is an appropriate performance metric for CII. The Board also noted CII’s improved performance during the one-year period. The Board and BlackRock reviewed and discussed the reasons for CII’s underperformance during the three-year and since-inception periods. The Board was informed that, among other things, poor stock selection was the key driver of underperformance relative to the customized benchmark.

The Board of BDJ noted that for the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods reported, BDJ exceeded, underperformed and underperformed its customized benchmark. The since inception period for BDJ is as of the customized benchmark creation date. BlackRock believes that performance relative to the customized benchmark is an appropriate performance metric for BDJ. The Board also noted BDJ’s improved performance during the one-year period. The Board and BlackRock reviewed and discussed the reasons for BDJ’s underperformance during the three-year and since-inception periods. The Board was informed that, among other things, the largest detractor from relative performance was BDJ’s underweight and stock selection in healthcare and information technology sectors.

The Board of BOE noted that for the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods reported, BOE exceeded, underperformed and underperformed its customized benchmark. The since inception period for BOE is as of the customized benchmark creation date. BlackRock believes that performance relative to the customized benchmark is an appropriate performance metric for BOE. The Board also noted BOE’s improved performance during the one-year period. The Board and BlackRock reviewed and discussed the reasons for BOE’s underperformance during the three-year and since-inception

|  | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT |  | JUNE 30, 2016 |  | 143

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements (continued) |  |  |  |

periods. The Board was informed that, among other things, BOE’s overweight positions in developed markets and volatility stocks coupled with underweight positions in emerging markets and value stocks hindered performance during the three-year and since-inception periods.

The Board of BGY noted that for the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods reported, BGY exceeded, underperformed, and underperformed its customized benchmark. The since inception period for BGY is as of the customized benchmark creation date. BlackRock believes that performance relative to the customized benchmark is an appropriate performance metric for BGY. The Board also noted BGY’s improved performance during the one-year period. The Board and BlackRock reviewed and discussed the reasons for BGY’s underperformance during the three-year and since-inception periods. The Board was informed that, among other things, BGY’s overweight positions in developed markets and volatility stocks coupled with underweight positions in emerging markets and value stocks hindered performance during the three-year and since-inception periods.

The Board of each of BGR, CII, BDJ, BOE and BGY and BlackRock discussed BlackRock’s strategy for improving its Trust’s investment performance. Discussions covered topics such as: investment risks undertaken by the Trust; performance attribution; the Trust’s investment personnel; and the resources appropriate to support the Trust’s investment processes. Each such Board and BlackRock also discussed BlackRock’s active equity platform, and it was noted that BlackRock has recruited a Head of Global Active Equity, and has appointed a Chief Performance Officer to provide analysis of investment performance to senior management and the Board.

BlackRock and the Board of each of CII and BDJ previously had concurred, given each Trust’s poor historical performance, in making changes within the portfolio management team. Both BlackRock and the Board of each of CII and BDJ are hopeful that these changes will result in improved performance going forward, although there can be no assurance that will be the case. The Board of each of CII and BDJ will continue to monitor its Trust’s performance.

C. Consideration of the Advisory/Management Fees and the Cost of the Services and Profits to be Realized by BlackRock and its Affiliates from their Relationship with the Trusts: Each Board, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed its Trust’s contractual management fee rate compared with the other funds in its Broadridge category. The contractual management fee rate represents a combination of the advisory fee and any administrative fees, before taking into account any reimbursements or fee waivers. Each Board also compared its Trust’s total expense ratio, as well as its actual management fee rate as a percentage of total assets, to those of other funds in its Broadridge category. The total expense ratio represents a fund’s total net operating expenses, excluding any investment related expenses. The total expense ratio gives effect to any expense reimbursements or fee waivers that benefit a fund, and the actual management fee rate gives effect to any management fee reimbursements or waivers that benefit a fund. Each Board considered the services provided and the fees charged by BlackRock and its affiliates to other types of clients with similar investment mandates, as applicable, including institutional accounts and sub-advised mutual funds (including mutual funds sponsored by third parties).

Each Board received and reviewed statements relating to BlackRock’s financial condition. Each Board reviewed BlackRock’s profitability methodology and was also provided with a profitability analysis that detailed the revenues earned and the expenses incurred by BlackRock for services provided to its Trust. Each Board reviewed BlackRock’s profitability with respect to its Trust and other funds the Board currently oversees for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to available aggregate profitability data provided for the prior two years. Each Board reviewed BlackRock’s profitability with respect to certain other U.S. fund complexes managed by the Manager and/or its affiliates. Each Board reviewed BlackRock’s assumptions and methodology of allocating expenses in the profitability analysis, noting the inherent limitations in allocating costs among various advisory products. Each Board recognized that profitability may be affected by numerous factors including, among other things, fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the Manager, the types of funds managed, precision of expense allocations and business mix. As a result, calculating and comparing profitability at individual fund level is difficult.

Each Board noted that, in general, individual fund or product line profitability of other advisors is not publicly available. Each Board reviewed BlackRock’s overall operating margin, in general, compared to that of certain other publicly-traded asset management firms. Each Board considered the differences between BlackRock and these other firms, including the contribution of technology at BlackRock, BlackRock’s expense management, and the relative product mix.

In addition, each Board considered the cost of the services provided to its Trust by BlackRock, and BlackRock’s and its affiliates’ profits relating to the management of its Trust and the other funds advised by BlackRock and its affiliates. As part of its analysis, each Board reviewed BlackRock’s methodology in allocating its costs of managing its Trust, to the Trust. Each Board may receive and review information from independent third parties as part of its annual evaluation. Each Board considered whether BlackRock has the financial resources necessary to attract and retain high quality investment management personnel to perform its obligations under the Trust’s Agreement(s) and to continue to provide the high quality of services that is expected by the Board. Each Board further considered factors including but not limited to BlackRock’s commitment of time, assumption of risk, and liability profile in servicing its Trust in contrast to what is required of BlackRock with respect to other products with similar investment mandates across the open-end fund, ETF, closed-end fund, sub-advised mutual fund and institutional account product channels, as applicable.

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements (continued) |  |  |  |

The Board of each of CII and BUI noted that its Trust’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the first quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio each ranked in the first quartile, relative to the Expense Peers.

The Board of BCX noted that BCX’s contractual management fee rate ranked first out of four funds, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio each ranked in the first quartile, relative to the Expense Peers.

The Board of each of BME and BST noted that its Trust’s contractual management fee rate ranked second out of four funds, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio ranked in the second and first quartiles, respectively, relative to the Expense Peers.

The Board of BGR noted that BGR’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the third quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio each ranked in the first quartile, relative to the Expense Peers. In addition, the Board noted that BlackRock had voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the advisory fee payable by BGR. This waiver was implemented on July 1, 2015. After discussions between the Board, including the Independent Board Members, and BlackRock, the Board and BlackRock agreed to an increase to the voluntary advisory fee waiver. This increase was implemented on July 1, 2016.

The Board of BDJ noted that BDJ’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the first quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio each ranked in the first quartile, relative to the Expense Peers. In addition, the Board noted that BlackRock had voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the advisory fee payable by BDJ. This waiver was implemented on July 1, 2015. After discussions between the Board, including the Independent Board Members, and BlackRock, the Board and BlackRock agreed to remove the voluntary advisory fee waiver. This adjustment was implemented on July 1, 2016.

The Board of BOE noted that BOE’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the second quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio each ranked in the second quartile relative to the Expense Peers. In addition, the Board noted that BlackRock had voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the advisory fee payable by BOE. This waiver was implemented on July 1, 2015. After discussions between the Board, including the Independent Board Members, and BlackRock, the Board and BlackRock agreed to a continuation of the voluntary advisory fee waiver.

The Board of BGY noted that BGY’s contractual management fee rate ranked in the first quartile, and that the actual management fee rate and total expense ratio each ranked in the first quartile, relative to the Expense Peers. The Board also noted that BlackRock had voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the advisory fee payable by BGY. The Board further noted that BlackRock had agreed to an increase to the voluntary advisory fee waiver. This waiver increase was implemented on July 1, 2015. After discussions between the Board, including Independent Board Members, and BlackRock, the Board and BlackRock agreed to a continuation of the voluntary advisory fee waiver.

D. Economies of Scale: Each Board, including the Independent Board Members, considered the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as the assets of its Trust increase. Each Board also considered the extent to which its Trust benefits from such economies in a variety of ways, and whether there should be changes in the advisory fee rate or breakpoint structure in order to enable the Trust to more fully participate in these economies of scale. Each Board considered its Trust’s asset levels and whether the current fee was appropriate.

Based on each Board’s review and consideration of the issue, each Board concluded that most closed-end funds do not have fund level breakpoints because closed-end funds generally do not experience substantial growth after the initial public offering. They are typically priced at scale at a fund’s inception. The Board of BME noted that although BME may from time-to-time make additional share offerings pursuant to its equity shelf program, the growth of BME’s assets will occur primarily through the appreciation of its investment portfolio.

E. Other Factors Deemed Relevant by the Board Members: Each Board, including the Independent Board Members, also took into account other ancillary or “fall-out” benefits that BlackRock or its affiliates may derive from their respective relationships with its Trust, both tangible and intangible, such as BlackRock’s ability to leverage its investment professionals who manage other portfolios and risk management personnel, an increase in BlackRock’s profile in the investment advisory community, and the engagement of BlackRock’s affiliates as service providers to the Trust, including for administrative, securities lending and cash management services. Each Board also considered BlackRock’s overall operations and its efforts to expand the scale of, and improve the quality of, its operations. Each Board also noted that BlackRock may use and benefit from third party research obtained by soft dollars generated by certain registered fund transactions to assist in managing all or a number of its other client accounts. Each Board further noted that it had considered the investment by BlackRock’s funds in affiliated exchange traded funds (i.e., ETFs) without any offset against the management fees payable by the funds to BlackRock.

In connection with its consideration of the Agreement(s) for its Trust, each Board also received information regarding BlackRock’s brokerage and soft dollar practices. Each Board received reports from BlackRock which included information on brokerage commissions and trade execution practices throughout the year.

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements (concluded) |  |  |  |

Each Board noted the competitive nature of the closed-end fund marketplace, and that shareholders are able to sell their Trust shares in the secondary market if they believe that the Trust’s fees and expenses are too high or if they are dissatisfied with the performance of the Trust.

Each Board also considered the various notable initiatives and projects BlackRock performed in connection with its closed-end fund product line. These initiatives included the redemption of AMPS for the BlackRock closed-end funds with AMPS outstanding; developing equity shelf programs; efforts to eliminate product overlap with fund mergers; ongoing services to manage leverage that has become increasingly complex; periodic evaluation of share repurchases and other support initiatives for certain BlackRock funds; and continued communications efforts with shareholders, fund analysts and financial advisers. With respect to the latter, the Independent Board Members noted BlackRock’s continued commitment to supporting the secondary market for the common shares of its closed-end funds through a comprehensive secondary market communication program designed to raise investor and analyst awareness and understanding of closed-end funds. BlackRock’s support services included, among other things: continuing communications concerning the redemption efforts related to AMPS; sponsoring and participating in conferences; communicating with closed-end fund analysts covering the BlackRock funds throughout the year; providing marketing and product updates for the closed-end funds; and maintaining and enhancing its closed-end fund website.

Conclusion

Each Board, including the Independent Board Members, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Manager and its Trust for a one-year term ending June 30, 2017. The Board of each of BGR and BCX, including the Independent Board Members, also unanimously approved the continuation of the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the Sub-Advisor, with respect to its Trust, for a one-year term ending June 30, 2017. Based upon its evaluation of all of the aforementioned factors in their totality, as well as other information, each Board, including the Independent Board Members, was satisfied that the terms of Agreement(s) for its Trust were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of the Trust and its shareholders. In arriving at its decision to approve the Agreement(s) for its Trust, each Board did not identify any single factor or group of factors as, all-important or controlling, but considered all factors together, and different Board Members may have attributed different weights to the various factors considered. The Independent Board Members were also assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel in making this determination. The contractual fee arrangements for each Trust reflect the results of several years of review by the Trust’s Board Members and predecessor Board Members, and discussions between such Board Members (and predecessor Board Members) and BlackRock. As a result, the Board Members’ conclusions may be based in part on their consideration of these arrangements in prior years.

General Information

The Trusts do not make available copies of their Statements of Additional Information because the Trusts’ shares, except for BME, are not continuously offered, which means that the Statements of Additional Information of each Trust have not been updated after completion of the respective Trust’s offerings and the information contained in each Trust’s Statement of Additional Information may have become outdated.

The prospectus for BME includes additional information about the Trustees of the Trusts and is available, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-882-0052.

During the period, there were no material changes in the Trusts’ investment objectives or policies or to the Trusts’ charters or by-laws that would delay or prevent a change of control of the Trusts that were not approved by the shareholders or in the principal risk factors associated with investment in the Trusts. Other than as described on page 142, there have been no changes in the persons who are primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Trusts’ portfolios.

This practice is commonly called “householding” and is intended to reduce expenses and eliminate duplicate mailings of shareholder documents.

General Information (concluded)

Availability of Trust Updates

BlackRock will update performance and certain other data for the Trusts on a monthly basis on its website in the “Closed-end Funds” section of http://www.blackrock.com. Investors and others are advised to periodically check the website for updated performance information and the release of other material information about the Trusts. This reference to BlackRock’s website is intended to allow investors public access to information regarding the Trusts and does not, and is not intended to, incorporate BlackRock’s website in this report.

Shelf Offering Program

From time-to-time, each Trust may seek to raise additional equity capital through an equity shelf program (a “Shelf Offering”). In a Shelf Offering, a Trust may, subject to market conditions, raise additional equity capital by issuing new Common Shares from time to time in varying amounts at a net price at or above the Trust’s net asset value (“NAV”) per Common Share (calculated within 48 hours of pricing). While any such Shelf Offering may allow a Trust to pursue additional investment opportunities without the need to sell existing portfolio investments, it could also entail risks — including that the issuance of additional Common Shares may limit the extent to which the Common Shares are able to trade at a premium to NAV in the secondary market.

On August 12, 2015 and June 9, 2016, BME filed a final prospectus with the SEC in connection with its Shelf Offering. This report and the prospectus of BME are not offers to sell BME Common Shares or solicitations of an offer to buy BME Common Shares in any jurisdiction where such offers or sales are not permitted. The prospectus of BME contains important information about the Fund, including its investment objective, risks, charges and expenses. Investors are urged to read the prospectus of BME carefully and in its entirety before investing. Copies of the final prospectus for BME can be obtained from BlackRock at http://www.blackrock.com.

Dividend Policy

Each Trust’s dividend policy is to distribute all or a portion of its net investment income to its shareholders on a monthly basis. In order to provide shareholders with a more stable level of dividend distributions, the dividends paid by the Trusts for any particular month may be more or less than the amount of net investment income earned by the Trusts during such month. The portion of dividend distributions that exceeds a Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, which are measured on a tax basis, will constitute a nontaxable return of capital. Dividend distributions in excess of a Trust’s taxable income and net capital gains, but not in excess of a Trust’s earnings and profits, will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income and will not constitute a nontaxable return of capital. The Trusts’ current accumulated but undistributed net investment income, if any, is disclosed in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, which comprises part of the financial information included in this report.
