Advisors&#148;), each a wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, are referred to as the &#147;Fund complex,&#148; and all of the Boards of Directors or Trustees of the funds in the Fund complex, including the Existing Boards, are referred to

Boards oversee the open-end and closed-end funds in the Fund complex. It is proposed that the Boards be realigned and consolidated so that the open-end funds would be overseen by two new boards. One new board would oversee certain equity funds, all
fixed-income funds and all funds in the Fund complex designed for sale through insurance company separate accounts, and the other new board would oversee certain other equity funds and all money market funds in the Fund complex. It is also proposed
that a third new board would oversee the closed-end funds. (Each new board is referred to as a &#147;New Board&#148; and collectively as the &#147;New Boards.&#148;) The proposals for the open-end funds are covered in separate proxy statements. As
discussed below, this realignment and consolidation is expected to enable the New Boards to focus more attention on issues of particular relevance to the types of funds they oversee and to streamline and enhance the effectiveness of New Board
oversight of the Fund complex. Also, it is expected that having fewer Boards will facilitate communication between Fund management and the New Boards. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P

unless a proxy contains specific instructions to the contrary. Each Nominee&#146;s term of office will commence, if such Nominee is properly elected, on or about November&nbsp;1, 2007. The Board Members of certain Funds identified in
<I>Appendix&nbsp;A</I> (each, a &#147;Staggered Board Fund&#148;) are classified into three classes of Board Members: Class I, Class II and Class III. The term of office of these Board Members in Class I, Class II, and Class III will expire the
later of 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively, or until his or her successor is elected and qualifies or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement or removal. The term of office of the Board Members for all of the other Funds that are not
Staggered Board Funds will expire in 2008. For the Amending Funds (defined below) discussed in Proposal 2, the election of two of the Nominees (the &#147;Contingent Nominees&#148;) would be contingent upon shareholder approval of Proposal 2. The
Nominees who are &#147;interested persons&#148; under the 1940 Act, Richard S. Davis and Henry Gabbay, are the Contingent Nominees. If shareholders of an Amending Fund do not approve Proposal 2, the Contingent Nominees would not serve on that

Merrill Lynch&nbsp;&amp; Co., Inc. whereby Merrill Lynch&nbsp;&amp; Co., Inc.&#146;s investment management business, including Merrill Lynch Investment Managers, L.P. and certain affiliates (&#147;MLIM&#148;), combined with that of BlackRock to
create a new independent company that is one of the world&#146;s largest asset management firms with approximately $1.154 trillion in assets under management as of March&nbsp;31, 2007. Following the Transaction, BlackRock, in consultation with the
Board of each of the funds in the Fund complex, undertook a review of the investment advisory operations it had acquired and the operations of the funds formerly advised by MLIM with the goal of moving the funds to a more cohesive and rational
operating platform. BlackRock and the Boards each discussed certain proposals designed to achieve this goal. Specifically, the Boards discussed with BlackRock the possibility of consolidating the Boards. Discussions were held with each of the seven
Boards and ideas for consolidation were considered, including the appropriate number of Boards, the appropriate number of Board Members and which Board would be best suited to oversee specific types of funds (open-end equity, open-end fixed-income,
open-end money market funds and closed-end funds). These meetings were facilitated by outside counsel and were held among the Board Members who are not &#147;interested persons,&#148; as defined in the 1940 Act (the &#147;Independent Board
Members&#148;), as well as with management personnel from BlackRock. Over the course of several months and numerous such meetings, consensus was reached on the appropriate structure for the New Boards, the number of New Boards, and the composition
of those New Boards, as well as the funds each New Board would oversee, and these results were proposed for consideration at each Board&#146;s next in person meeting. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

election of a single Board intended to oversee certain equity funds, all fixed-income funds and all funds in the Fund complex designed for sale through insurance company separate accounts, a second Board intended to oversee the other equity funds
and all money market funds in the Fund complex and a third Board intended to oversee all closed-end funds. The proposals would result in a Fund complex overseen by three distinct New Boards. BlackRock, in consultation with the Boards, also proposed
that the number of Board Members who are &#147;interested persons&#148; of the Funds as defined in the 1940 Act consist of two (2)&nbsp;members of the New Board overseeing the closed-end funds and the New Board overseeing certain equity funds and
all money market funds in the Fund complex, and three (3) members of the New Board overseeing certain other equity funds, all fixed-income funds and all funds in the Fund complex designed for sale through insurance company separate accounts.

the Boards into a smaller number of Boards may provide benefits to shareholders of the funds. Each Board has reviewed the qualifications and backgrounds of the Nominees and believes that they are experienced in overseeing investment companies and
are familiar with the Fund complex and with BlackRock Advisors. In addition, the Board Members had the opportunity to meet their counterparts on other Boards in the Fund complex. The Board Members and BlackRock believe that: (i)&nbsp;a single New
Board overseeing funds of a specific type may enhance that New Board&#146;s efficiency by enabling Board Members to focus their attention on issues common to many of the funds overseen by the New Boards and to act to resolve these issues in a
shorter time frame; (ii)&nbsp;realigning the Boards into three New Boards may reduce certain fund expenses, such as costs associated with holding Board meetings, committee meetings and, to the extent necessary, shareholder meetings;
(iii)&nbsp;reducing the administrative costs and burden on fund management that are inherent in reporting to seven Boards may allow fund management to devote more time and resources to providing other services to the funds in the Fund complex,

and effective presentations at New Board meetings; and (vi)&nbsp;a smaller number of Boards may benefit the funds and their shareholders by enhancing the effectiveness of New Board oversight of the funds, their management and their other service
providers and may facilitate more uniform oversight of the funds in the Fund complex. The Funds do not expect to realize immediate savings on director compensation in the aggregate across all of the New Boards because the total number of Independent
Board Members will not change. There could be future savings, however, if (as is anticipated) normal retirements reduce Board size. Independent Board Member compensation has not yet been established by the New Boards. </FONT></P> <P

consolidation, focusing on, among other things, the significant reduction in the volume of Board materials required to be prepared by BlackRock Advisors and the funds&#146; other service providers for each of the seven quarterly Board meetings.
Additionally, the Boards focused on ensuring that portfolio management time dedicated to keeping the multiple Boards up to date on performance and portfolio management issues across the seven Boards could be efficiently managed. The Board noted, as
an example, that many senior portfolio managers currently attend seven Board meetings each quarter and that if the Board consolidation were approved, such portfolio managers would only have to attend three Board meetings each quarter. The Boards
also considered the benefits from a compliance perspective. In particular, the Boards considered that the seven Board structure resulted in the creation of four separate sets of compliance policies and procedures and compliance manuals, and that
while these compliance materials are broadly consistent across the Fund complex, consolidating the Boards into the New Board structure would promote the adoption of uniform compliance policies and procedures for the appropriate funds overseen by
each New Board. The Boards and BlackRock concluded that the Board consolidation would result in efficiencies in terms of compliance monitoring and oversight and would streamline New Board reporting and monitoring of fund compliance. </FONT></P> <P

liability to the Fund or its investors, it is finally adjudicated that they engaged in willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in their offices. The Funds organized under Massachusetts law

under Maryland law, indemnification is not permitted in the case of actions or omissions committed in bad faith or as a result of active and deliberate dishonesty, which are material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding, or with respect to
which an improper personal benefit in money, property or services was received or, in the case of a criminal proceeding, committed with reasonable cause to believe that the action or omission was unlawful. Indemnification provisions contained in a

properly executed proxy card or other authorization by a shareholder that does not specify how the shareholder&#146;s shares should be voted on a proposal may be deemed to authorize a service provider to vote such shares in favor of the proposal.

Audit Committee of each Fund has adopted policies and procedures with regard to the pre-approval of services. Audit, audit-related and tax compliance services provided to a Fund on an annual basis require specific pre-approval by the Fund&#146;s
Audit Committee. As noted above, the Audit Committee also must approve other non-audit services provided to a Fund and those non-audit services provided to the Fund&#146;s Affiliated Service Providers that relate directly to the operations and
financial reporting of the Fund. Certain of these non-audit services that the Audit Committee believes are (a)&nbsp;consistent with the Commission&#146;s auditor independence rules and (b)&nbsp;routine and recurring services that will not impair the
independence of the independent registered public accounting firm may be approved by the Audit Committee without consideration on a specific case-by-case basis (&#147;general pre-approval&#148;). However, for certain Funds such services will only be
deemed pre-approved provided that any individual project does not exceed $5,000 attributable to the Fund or $50,000 for the project as a whole. Any proposed services exceeding the pre-approved cost levels for those Funds will require specific
pre-approval by the Audit Committee of those Funds, as will any other services not subject to general pre-approval (<I>e.g.</I>, unanticipated but permissible services). The Audit Committee is informed of each service approved subject to general
pre-approval at the next regularly scheduled in-person board meeting. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="arial"

lead trustee for each Board plus an additional $60,000 per annum for his service as chairman of the Audit Committee. Messrs. Dixon and Fabozzi receive an additional $30,000 per annum from the Funds in the Fund complex for which they serve for their
service on the Audit Committee of such Funds. This additional compensation to Messrs. Cavanagh, Dixon and Fabozzi will be allocated among the Funds in the Fund complex for which they serve based on their relative net assets. Certain of the above
fees paid to the Independent Board Members will be subject to mandatory deferrals pursuant to such Funds&#146; deferred compensation plan. The Independent Board Members have agreed that at least $30,000 of their $190,000 retainer will be mandatorily
deferred pursuant to such deferred compensation plan. Also, members of the Audit Committee of the Funds in the Fund complex for which they serve will be required to defer $20,000 of the per annum fee they will receive for their services on the Audit
Committee pursuant to the deferred compensation plan. Under the deferred compensation plan, deferred amounts earn a return for the Independent Board Members as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in common shares of certain other
Funds in the Fund complex for which they serve selected by the Independent Board Members. This has approximately the same economic effect for the Independent Board Members as if they had invested the deferred amounts in such other Funds in the Fund
complex for which they serve. The deferred compensation plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of a Fund. A Fund may, however, elect to invest in common shares of those Funds
selected by the Independent Board Members in order to match its deferred compensation obligations.] </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"
