The Markets in Review |

Dear Shareholder,

Market volatility, while remaining below the long-term average level, increased over the course of 2014 and into 2015, driven largely by higher valuations in risk assets (such as equities and high yield bonds), geopolitical risks, uneven global economic growth and uncertainty around policy moves from the world’s largest central banks. As the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) gradually reduced its bond buying program (which ultimately ended in October 2014), U.S. interest rates surprisingly trended lower during the period.

The first half of 2014 was generally a strong period for most asset classes; however, volatility ticked up in the summer as geopolitical tensions intensified in Ukraine and the Middle East and investors feared that better U.S. economic indicators may compel the Fed to increase short-term interest rates sooner than previously anticipated. Global credit markets tightened as the U.S. dollar strengthened versus other currencies, ultimately putting a strain on investor flows, and financial markets broadly weakened in the third quarter.

Several themes dominated the markets in the fourth quarter that resulted in the strong performance of U.S. markets versus other areas of the world. Economic growth strengthened considerably in the United States while the broader global economy showed signs of slowing. The European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan took aggressive measures to stimulate growth while the Fed moved toward tighter policy, causing further strengthening in the U.S. dollar. Fixed income investors piled into U.S. Treasuries where yields remained persistently low, but were comparatively higher than yields on international sovereign debt, while equity investors favored the relative stability of U.S.-based companies amid rising global risks.

Oil prices, which had been gradually declining since mid-summer, plummeted in the fourth quarter due to a global supply-and-demand imbalance. Energy-related assets sold off sharply and emerging markets struggled as many of those economies rely heavily on oil exports. Conversely, the consumer sectors benefited from lower oil prices as savings at the gas pumps freed up discretionary income for other goods and services.

These trends shifted in early 2015. U.S. equities underperformed international markets given high valuations and the anticipation of a rate hike from the Fed. Oil prices showed signs of stabilizing as suppliers became more disciplined in their exploration and production efforts. Markets in Europe and Japan rebounded, driven largely by central bank policy accommodation and improving economic data.

At BlackRock, we believe investors need to think globally, extend their scope across a broad array of asset classes and be prepared to move freely 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

Trust Summary as of February 28, 2015 | BlackRock Core Bond Trust

Trust Overview

BlackRock Core Bond Trust’s (BHK) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide current income and capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 75% of its assets in bonds that are investment grade quality at the time of investment. The Trust’s investments will include a broad range of bonds, including corporate bonds, U.S. government and agency securities and mortgage-related securities. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.

On June 6, 2014, the Boards of the Trust, BlackRock Income Opportunity Trust, Inc. (“BNA”) and BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. (“BKT”) approved the reorganizations of BKT and BNA into the Trust, with the Trust continuing as the surviving fund after the reorganizations. At a special meeting of shareholders on September 30, 2014, the shareholders of the Trust and BNA approved the reorganization of BNA into the Trust, which was completed on November 10, 2014. The reorganization of BKT into the Trust was not approved by BKT shareholders.

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

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

• |  | For the six-month period ended February 28, 2015, the Trust returned 5.79% based on market price and 4.37% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Corporate BBB-Rated Debt Funds (Leveraged) category posted an average return of 1.34% based on market price and 0.78% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. 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. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | The main contributors to the Trust’s performance were its exposure to investment grade corporate credit, particularly within industrials and financials, U.S. Treasuries and high yield and supra-sovereign securities (supranational entities formed by two or more central governments to promote economic development for the member countries). Other contributors included non-U.S. dollar exposure and positions in commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), agency mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) 30-year pass-throughs and asset-backed securities (“ABS”).

• |  | There were no material detractors from performance during the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | For the most part, the Trust’s allocations remained consistent throughout the six-month period, with its largest positions in investment grade and high yield corporate credit, followed by allocations in securitized credits, specifically ABS and CMBS. The largest position change came in form of increasing the Trust’s exposure to U.S. Treasuries.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | At period end, the Trust maintained diversified exposure to mainly non-government spread sectors, including investment grade credit, high yield credit, CMBS, ABS and non-agency residential MBS. The Trust also held exposure to government-related sectors including U.S. Treasury securities, agency debt and agency MBS. The Trust ended the period with a long duration profile.

Trust Summary as of February 28, 2015 | BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc.

Trust Overview

BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc.’s (HYT) (the “Trust”) primary investment objective is to provide shareholders with current income. The Trust’s secondary investment objective is to provide shareholders with capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its objectives by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in domestic and foreign high yield securities, including high yield bonds (commonly referred to as “junk” bonds), corporate loans, convertible debt securities and preferred securities which are below investment grade quality. 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 objectives will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

• |  | For the six-month period ended February 28, 2015, the Trust returned 0.11% based on market price and (0.17)% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper High Yield Funds (Leveraged) category posted an average return of (2.46)% based on market price and (1.60)% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. 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. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | The high yield market was essentially flat for the full six months, declining through December before recovering its losses late in the period. However, the Trust’s allocation to floating-rate high yield loans contributed positively to performance, as that segment rose modestly near the end of the period. Exposure to the equity of high yield companies detracted from returns.

• |  | The Trust’s exposure to the energy sector was the leading detractor as the price of oil finished the period significantly lower, from about $100 a barrel at the beginning to about $50 a barrel at the end. This led to declines in energy-related high-yield issues. Holdings within metals & mining also detracted as those commodities also came under pressure in the face of slower growth prospects. The Trust’s use of leverage acted to magnify losses in both sectors.

• |  | The Trust’s most commonly used derivative strategy is to utilize short positions in equity futures in order to reduce overall risk in the portfolio and manage the volatility of its equity holdings. Those positions detracted given the positive performance of the overall equity market during the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | During the period, the Trust reduced risk modestly in the portfolio, based on the view that the market is likely to see increased volatility, making its overall risk-return profile less attractive. The Trust also modestly reduced its equity holdings and increased the size of its equity futures. In addition, the Trust increased its holdings in more liquid high yield positions, such as its allocation to high yield index ETFs.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | At period end, the Trust held the majority of its total portfolio in corporate bonds, with the next significant allocation being in floating rate loan interests (bank loans), and a modest percentage in common stocks. The remainder was invested in preferred stocks and other interests. The Trust was broadly diversified with holdings in more than 450 companies, while the top 25 highest conviction holdings represented about one-quarter of overall portfolio assets.

|  | 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.

Trust Summary as of February 28, 2015 | BlackRock Income Trust, Inc.

Trust Overview

BlackRock Income Trust, Inc.’s (BKT) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to manage a portfolio of high-quality securities to achieve both preservation of capital and high monthly income. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 65% of its assets in mortgage-backed securities.

The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.

On June 6, 2014, the Boards of the Trust, BlackRock Income Opportunity Trust, Inc. (“BNA”) and BlackRock Core Bond Trust (“BHK”) approved the reorganizations of the Trust and BNA into BHK, with BHK continuing as the surviving fund after the reorganizations.

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

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

• |  | For the six-month period ended February 28, 2015, the Trust returned 3.31% based on market price and 1.88% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper US Mortgage Funds category posted an average return of 1.53% based on market price and 1.58% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. 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. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

• |  | The Trust’s exposure to agency collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) and U.S. agency debt contributed positively to performance. The Trust continued to benefit from exposure to Alt-A (riskier than prime, but less risky than subprime) and prime non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”), as well as commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”).

• |  | The Trust’s duration positioning, as well as its exposure to agency MBS, detracted from performance.

• |  | The Trust uses interest rate derivatives, including futures and swaps, mainly for the purpose of managing duration, convexity (the rate at which duration changes in response to interest rate movements) and yield curve positioning. During the period, the Trust held short positions on U.S. Treasuries in order to manage the duration profile of the portfolio. These positions were beneficial to the Trust’s performance during certain periods of rising interest rates. However, for the period as a whole, the Trust’s derivatives holdings had a negative impact on returns.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• |  | During the six-month period, the Trust marginally decreased overall exposure to agency MBS, with most of the reduction coming from the allocation to 30-year pass-throughs. The Trust also retained its selective allocations in asset-backed securities, CMBS and non-agency MBS based on a increasing yields and continued improvement in underlying fundamentals.

Describe portfolio positioning at period end.

• |  | At period end, the Trust maintained exposure to high quality agency MBS with varying maturities and coupon rates. The Trust continued to be overweight agency CMOs while holding an underweight to 15- and 30-year agency pass-throughs. The Trust continued to hold small allocations in non-agency MBS and CMBS. The Trust also maintained a relatively neutral duration compared with the benchmark.

6 |  | For financial reporting purposes, credit quality ratings shown above reflect the highest rating assigned by either S&P or Moody’s if ratings differ. These rating agencies are independent, nationally recognized statistical rating organizations and are widely used. Investment grade ratings are credit ratings of BBB/Baa or higher. Below investment grade ratings are credit ratings of BB/Ba or lower. Investments designated N/R are not rated by either rating agency. Unrated investments do not necessarily indicate low credit quality. Credit quality ratings are subject to change.

The Benefits and Risks of Leveraging |

The Trusts may utilize leverage to seek to enhance the yield and net asset value (“NAV”) of their common shares (“Common Shares”). However, these objectives cannot be achieved in all interest rate environments.

In general, the concept of leveraging is based on the premise that the financing cost of leverage, which will be based on short-term interest rates, will normally be lower than the income earned by a Trust on its longer-term portfolio investments purchased with the proceeds from leverage. To the extent that the total assets of the Trust (including the assets obtained from leverage) are invested in higher-yielding portfolio investments, the Trust’s shareholders will benefit from the incremental net income. The interest earned on securities purchased with the proceeds from leverage is paid to shareholders in the form of dividends, and the value of these portfolio holdings is reflected in the per share NAV.

To illustrate these concepts, assume a Trust’s Common Shares capitalization is $100 million and it utilizes leverage for an additional $30 million, creating a total value of $130 million available for investment in longer-term income securities. If prevailing short-term interest rates are 3% and longer-term interest rates are 6%, the yield curve has a strongly positive slope. In this case, the Trust’s financing costs on the $30 million of proceeds obtained from leverage are based on the lower short-term interest rates. At the same time, the securities purchased by the Trust with the proceeds from leverage earn income based on longer-term interest rates. In this case, the Trust’s costs of leverage are significantly lower than the income earned on the Trust’s longer-term investments acquired from leverage proceeds, and therefore the holders of Common Shares (“Common Shareholders”) are the beneficiaries of the incremental net income.

However, in order to benefit Common Shareholders, the return on assets purchased with leverage proceeds must exceed the ongoing costs associated with the leverage. If interest and other costs of leverage exceed the Trust’s return on assets purchased with leverage proceeds, income to shareholders will be lower than if the Trust had not used leverage. Furthermore, the value of the Trust’s portfolio investments generally varies inversely with the direction of long-term interest rates, although other factors can influence the value of portfolio investments. In contrast, the

value of the Trust’s obligations under its leverage arrangement generally does not fluctuate in relation to interest rates. As a result, changes in interest rates can influence the Trust’s NAVs positively or negatively. Changes in the future direction of interest rates are very difficult to predict accurately, and there is no assurance that a Trust’s intended leveraging strategy will be successful.

Leverage also will generally cause greater changes in the Trusts’ NAVs, market prices and dividend rates than comparable portfolios without leverage. In a declining market, leverage is likely to cause a greater decline in the net asset value and market price of a Trust’s Common Shares than if the Trust were not leveraged. In addition, the Trust may be required to sell portfolio securities at inopportune times or at distressed values in order to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to the use of leverage or as required by the terms of leverage instruments, which may cause the Trust to incur losses. The use of leverage may limit the Trust’s ability to invest in certain types of securities or use certain types of hedging strategies. The Trust will incur expenses in connection with the use of leverage, all of which are borne by Common Shareholders and may reduce income to the Common Shares.

Each Trust may utilize leverage through a credit facility or reverse repurchase agreements as described in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), the Trust is permitted to issue debt up to 331⁄3% of its total managed assets. A Trust may voluntarily elect to limit its leverage to less than the maximum amount permitted under the 1940 Act. In addition, a Trust may also be subject to certain asset coverage, leverage or portfolio composition requirements imposed by its credit facility, which may be more stringent than those imposed by the 1940 Act.

If a Trust segregates or designates on its books and records cash or liquid assets having values not less than the value of the Trust’s obligations under the reverse repurchase agreement (including accrued interest), then such transaction will not be considered a senior security and will not be subject to the foregoing limitations and requirements under the 1940 Act.

Derivative Financial Instruments |

The Trusts may invest in various derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments are used to obtain exposure to a security, index and/or market without owning or taking physical custody of securities or to manage commodity, market, equity, credit, interest rate, foreign currency exchange rate and/or other risks. Derivative financial instruments may give rise to a form of economic leverage. Derivative financial instruments also 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 derivative

financial instrument. The Trusts’ ability to use a derivative financial instrument successfully depends on the investment advisor’s ability to predict pertinent market movements accurately, which cannot be assured. The use of derivative financial 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 and, investment that it might otherwise sell. The Trusts’ investments in these instruments are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

• |  |  |  | For Trust compliance purposes, the Trust’s industry classifications refer to any one or more of the industry sub-classifications used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or rating group indexes, and/or as defined by investment advisor. These definitions may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine such industry sub-classifications for reporting ease.
• |  |  |  | Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial statement purposes. 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 categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instrument and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

• |  |  |  | Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the 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 the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments)

|  |  |  | Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Trust’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments, refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

2 |  | As of August 31, 2014, the Trust used significant unobservable inputs in determining the value of certain investments.

4 |  | Any difference between Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation and Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments still held at February 28, 2015 is generally due to investments no longer held or categorized as Level 3 at period end.

5 |  | Includes investments acquired in the reorganization.

|  |  |  | The Trust’s investments that are categorized as Level 3 were valued utilizing third party pricing information without adjustment. Such valuations are based on unobservable inputs.

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015 | 39

Consolidated Schedule of Investments (continued) | BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc. (HYT)

• |  |  |  | Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial statement purposes. 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 categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instrument and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

• |  |  |  | Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the 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 the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments)

|  |  |  | Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Trust’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period.
|  |  |  | As of February 28, 2015, the following tables summarize the Trust’s investments and derivative financial instruments categorized in the disclosure hierarchy:

1 |  | As of August 31, 2014, the Trust used significant unobservable inputs in determining the value of certain investments. As of February 28, 2015, the Trust used observable inputs in determining the value of the same investments. As a result, investments with a beginning of period value of $33,758,282 transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 in the disclosure hierarchy.

2 |  | Included in the related net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

3 |  | Any difference between Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation and Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments still held at February 28, 2015 is generally due to investments no longer held or categorized as Level 3 at period end.

|  |  |  | 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 and derivative financial instruments as of February 28, 2015. The table does not include Level 3 investments and derivative financial instruments with values based upon unadjusted third party pricing information. A significant change in third party pricing information could result in a significantly lower or higher value of such Level 3 investments and derivative financial instruments. The value of Level 3 investments and derivative financial instruments derived using third party pricing information is $66,474,788.

• |  |  |  | Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial statement purposes. 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 categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instrument and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

• |  |  |  | Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the 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 the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments)

|  |  |  | Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Trust’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period.
|  |  |  | The following tables summarize the Trust’s investments and derivative financial instruments categorized in the disclosure hierarchy as of February 28, 2015:

1. Organization:

The following are registered under the 1940 Act as closed-end management investment companies and referred to herein collectively as the “Trusts”:

Trust Name |  |  |  | Herein Referred To As |  | Organized |  | Diversification Classification
BlackRock Core Bond Trust |  |  |  |  | BHK |  |  |  | Delaware |  |  |  | Diversified |
BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc. |  |  |  |  | HYT |  |  |  | Maryland |  |  |  | Diversified |
BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. |  |  |  |  | BKT |  |  |  | Maryland |  |  |  | Diversified |

The Boards of Directors and Board 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 Common Shares on a daily basis.

Reorganizations: The Board and shareholders of BHK and the Board and shareholders of BlackRock Income Opportunity Trust, Inc. (“BNA” and the “Target Fund”) approved the reorganization of the Target Fund into BHK pursuant to which BHK acquired substantially all of the assets and substantially all of the liabilities of the Target Fund in exchange for an equal aggregate value of newly-issued Common Shares of BHK. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two funds managed by BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”) with the same or substantially similar (but not identical) investment objectives, investment policies, strategies, risks and restrictions. The reorganization was a tax-free event and was effective on November 10, 2014.

Each Common Shareholder of the Target Fund received Common Shares of BHK in an amount equal to the aggregate net asset value of such Common Shareholder’s Target Fund Common Shares, as determined at the close of business on November 7, 2014, less the costs of the Target Fund’s reorganization. Cash was distributed for any fractional shares.

The reorganization was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of shares of BHK in the following amount and at the following conversion ratio:

Target Fund |  |  |  | Shares Prior to Reorganization |  | Conversion Ratio |  | Shares of BHK
BNA |  |  |  |  | 34,456,370 |  |  |  | 0.78050585 |  |  |  | 26,893,279 |

BNA’s net assets and composition of net assets on November 7, 2014, the valuation date of the reorganization, was as follows:

|  |  |  | BNA
Net assets |  |  |  | $ | 399,904,994 |
Paid-in capital |  |  |  | $ | 384,183,174 |
Distributions in excess of net investment income |  |  |  | $ | (65,119 | )
Accumulated net realized loss |  |  |  | $ | (14,090,276 | )
Net unrealized appreciation/depreciation |  |  |  | $ | 29,877,215 |

For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by BHK were recorded at fair value. However, the cost basis of the investments received from the Target Fund were carried forward to maintain ongoing reporting of BHK’s realized and unrealized gains and losses distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.

The net assets of BHK before the acquisition were $402,115,685. The aggregate net assets of BHK immediately after the acquisition amounted to $802,021,725. The Target Fund’s fair value and cost of investments prior to the reorganization were as follows:

Target Fund |  |  |  | Fair Value of Investments |  | Cost of Investments
BNA |  |  |  | $ | 587,549,607 |  |  | $ | 557,681,213 |

Assuming the acquisition had been completed on September 1, 2014 the beginning of the fiscal reporting period of BHK, the pro forma results of operations for the six months ended February 28, 2015, are as follows:

• |  | Net investment income/loss: $23,584,216

• |  | Net realized and change in unrealized gain/loss on investments: $7,794,708

• |  | Net increase/decrease in net assets resulting from operations: $31,378,924

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Target Fund that have been included in BHK’s Consolidated Statement of Operations since November 10, 2014.

Reorganization costs incurred in connection with the reorganization were expensed by BHK.

The Board and shareholders of HYT and the Board and shareholders of each of BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc. (COY), BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund III, Inc. (CYE), BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund V, Inc. (HYV), BlackRock High Income Shares (HIS) and BlackRock High Yield Trust (BHY) (individually a “HYT Target Fund” and collectively the “HYT Target Funds”) approved the reorganizations of each HYT Target Fund into HYT pursuant to which HYT acquired substantially all of the assets and substantially all of the liabilities of each HYT Target Fund in exchange for an equal aggregate value of newly-issued Common Shares of HYT. On February 28, 2014, HYT changed its name from BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund VI, Inc. to BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc. The purpose of these transactions was to combine six funds managed the Manager with the same or substantially similar (but not identical) investment objectives, investment policies, strategies, risks and restrictions. Each reorganization was a tax-free event and was effective on November 18, 2013.

Each Common Shareholder of a HYT Target Fund received Common Shares of HYT in an amount equal to the aggregate net asset value of such shareholders HYT Target Fund shares, as determined at the close of business on November 15, 2013, less the costs of the Target Fund’s reorganization. Cash was distributed for any fractional shares.

The reorganizations were accomplished by a tax-free exchange of shares of HYT in the following amounts and at the following conversion ratios:

Target Fund |  |  |  | Shares Prior to Reorganization |  | Conversion Ratio |  | Shares of HYT
COY |  |  |  |  | 35,027,459 |  |  |  | 0.59633674 |  |  |  | 20,888,115 |
CYE |  |  |  |  | 37,552,995 |  |  |  | 0.61218457 |  |  |  | 22,989,338 |

BHY |  |  |  |  | 6,431,296 |  |  |  | 0.58941105 |  |  |  | 3,790,663 |

Each HYT Target Fund’s net assets and composition of net assets on November 15, 2013, the valuation date of the reorganization, were as follows:

|  |  |  | Target Funds
|  |  |  | COY |  | CYE |  | HYV |  | HIS |  | BHY
Net assets |  |  |  | $ | 269,933,969 |  |  | $ | 297,104,927 |  |  | $ | 438,025,175 |  |  | $ | 124,291,816 |  |  | $ | 48,986,675 |

For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by HYT were recorded at fair value. However, the cost basis of the investments received from the HYT Target Fund were carried forward to maintain ongoing reporting of HYT’s realized and unrealized gains and losses distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.

The net assets of HYT before the acquisition were $457,705,742. The aggregate net assets of HYT immediately after the acquisition amounted to $1,636,048,304. Each HYT Target Fund’s fair value and cost of investments and derivative financial instruments prior to the reorganization were as follows:

Target Fund |  |  |  | Fair Value of Investments |  | Cost of Investments
COY |  |  |  | $ | 390,967,349 |  |  | $ | 384,382,845 |

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015 | 59

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

Assuming the acquisition had been completed on September 1, 2013 the beginning of the fiscal reporting period of HYT, the pro forma results of operations for the year ended August 31, 2014, are as follows:

• |  | Net investment income: $124,066,786

• |  | Net realized and change in unrealized gain/loss on investments: $114,665,188

• |  | Net increase/decrease in net assets resulting from operations: $238,731,974

Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the HYT Target Funds that have been included in HYT’s Consolidated Statement of Operations since November 18, 2013.

Reorganization costs incurred in connection with the reorganizations were expensed by HYT.

Basis of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements of HYT include the accounts of BLK HYT (Luxembourg) Investments, S.a.r.l., BLK HYV (Luxembourg) Investments, S.a.r.l., BLK COY (Luxembourg) Investments, S.a.r.l. and BLK CYE (Luxembourg) Investments, S.a.r.l. (the “Taxable Subsidiaries”), all of which are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Trust which hold shares of private Canadian companies, Laricina Energy Ltd., Osum Oil Sands Corp. and Seven Generations Energy Ltd. Such shares are held in the Taxable Subsidiaries in order to realize benefits under the Double Tax Avoidance Convention between Canada and Luxembourg, the result of which is gains on the sale of such shares will not be subject to capital gains taxes in Canada. Income earned on the investments held by the Taxable Subsidiaries may be taxable to such subsidiaries in Luxembourg. An income tax provision, if any, is included in expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The net assets of the Taxable Subsidiaries as of February 28, 2015 were $7,695,108, which is 0.5% of HYT’s consolidated net assets. Intercompany accounts and transactions, if any, have been eliminated. The Taxable Subsidiaries are subject to the same investment policies and restrictions that apply to HYT.

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 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 the significant accounting policies followed by the Trusts:

Valuation: The Trusts’ investments are valued at fair value as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) (or if the reporting date falls on a day the NYSE is closed, investments are valued at fair value as of the report date). 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 value of their financial instruments at market value using independent dealers or pricing services under policies approved by the Board. 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 provide oversight of the pricing function for the Trusts for all financial instruments.

Bond investments are valued on the basis of last available bid prices or current market quotations provided by dealers or pricing services. Floating rate loan interests are valued at the mean of the bid prices from one or more brokers or dealers as obtained from a pricing service. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments, various relationships observed in the market between investments and calculated yield measures. Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are valued by independent pricing services using models that consider estimated cash flows of each tranche of the security, establish a benchmark yield and develop an estimated tranche-specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche. Financial futures contracts traded on exchanges are valued at their last sale price. To-be-announced (“TBA”) commitments are valued on the basis of last available bid prices or current market quotations provided by pricing services. Swap agreements are valued utilizing quotes received daily by the Trusts’ pricing service or through brokers, which are derived using daily swap curves and models that incorporate a number of market data factors, such as discounted cash flows, trades and values of the underlying reference instruments. Certain centrally cleared swaps are valued at the price determined by the relevant exchange or clearinghouse. Investments in open-end registered investment companies are valued at NAV each business day.

60 | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

Municipal investments (including commitments to purchase such investments on a “when-issued” basis) are valued on the basis of prices provided by dealers or pricing services. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments and information with respect to various relationships between investments.

Equity investments traded on a recognized exchange are valued at the official close 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 are valued at the last available bid (long positions) or ask (short positions) 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.

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 Value Investments”). When determining the price for Fair Value 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 valuation approaches for investments where an active market does not exist, including regular due diligence of the Trusts’ 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 Value Investments is subsequently reported to the Board or a committee thereof on a quarterly basis.

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 each Trust’s net assets. If events (e.g., a company announcement, market volatility or a natural disaster) occur during such periods that are expected to materially affect the value of such instruments, those instruments may be Fair Value Investments and be valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, using a pricing service and/or policies approved by the Board. Each business day, the Trusts use a pricing service to assist with the valuation of certain foreign exchange-traded equity securities and foreign exchange-traded and 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.

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

The Trusts do not isolate the portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in the market prices of investments held or sold for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the effects of changes in foreign currency 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

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015 | 61

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

net realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investments. The Trusts report 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., dollar rolls, TBA sale commitments, financial futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, options written, swaps and short sales) or certain borrowings (e.g., reverse repurchase transactions and treasury roll transactions) that would be “senior securities” for 1940 Act purposes, each Trust may segregate or designate on its books and records cash or liquid securities having a market value at least equal to the amount of each Trust’s future obligations under such investments or borrowings. Doing so allows the investment or borrowing to be excluded from treatment as a “senior security.” Furthermore, if required by an exchange or counterparty agreement, the 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.

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 date. Dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are subsequently recorded when the Trusts are 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 from net investment income are declared and paid monthly. Distributions of capital gains are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The character and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.

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. 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.

Recent Accounting Standard: In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance to improve the financial reporting of reverse repurchase agreements and other similar transactions. The guidance will require expanded disclosure for entities that enter into reverse repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. It is effective for financial statements with fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is evaluating the impact, if any, of this guidance on the Trusts’ financial statement disclosures.

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

The Trusts have an arrangement with the 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.

3. Securities and Other Investments:

Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed Securities: Certain Trusts may invest in asset-backed securities. Asset-backed securities are generally issued as pass-through certificates, which represent undivided fractional ownership interests in an underlying pool of assets, or as debt instruments, which are also known as collateralized obligations, and are generally issued as the debt of a special purpose entity organized solely for the purpose of owning such assets and issuing such debt. Asset-backed securities are often backed by a pool of assets representing the obligations of a number of different parties. The yield characteristics of certain asset-backed securities may differ from traditional debt securities. One such major difference is that all or a principal part of the obligations may be prepaid at any time because the underlying assets (i.e., loans) may be prepaid at any time. As a result, a decrease in interest rates in the market may result in increases in the level of prepayments as borrowers, particularly mortgagors, refinance and repay their loans. An increased

62 | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

prepayment rate with respect to an asset-backed security subject to such a prepayment feature will have the effect of shortening the maturity of the security. In addition, the Trusts may subsequently have to reinvest the proceeds at lower interest rates. If the Trusts have purchased such an asset-backed security at a premium, a faster than anticipated prepayment rate could result in a loss of principal to the extent of the premium paid.

Certain Trusts may purchase certain mortgage pass-through securities. There are a number of important differences among the agencies and instrumentalities of the U.S. Government that issue mortgage-related securities and among the securities that they issue. For example, mortgage-related securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae are guaranteed as to the timely payment of principal and interest by Ginnie Mae and such guarantee is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. However, mortgage-related securities issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, including Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae guaranteed mortgage pass-through certificates, which are solely the obligations of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, are not backed by or entitled to the full faith and credit of the United States, but are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury.

Collateralized Debt Obligations: Certain Trusts may invest in collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”), which include collateralized bond obligations (“CBOs”) and collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”). CBOs and CLOs are types of asset-backed securities. A CDO is an entity that is backed by a diversified pool of debt securities (CBOs) or syndicated bank loans (CLOs). The cash flows of the CDO can be split into multiple segments, called “tranches,” which will vary in risk profile and yield. The riskiest segment is the subordinated or “equity” tranche. This tranche bears the greatest risk of defaults from the underlying assets in the CDO and serves to protect the other, more senior, tranches from default in all but the most severe circumstances. Since it is shielded from defaults by the more junior tranches, a “senior” tranche will typically have higher credit ratings and lower yields than their underlying securities, and often receive investment grade ratings from one or more of the nationally recognized rating agencies. Despite the protection from the more junior tranches, senior tranches can experience substantial losses due to actual defaults, increased sensitivity to future defaults and the disappearance of one or more protecting tranches as a result of changes in the credit profile of the underlying pool of assets.

Multiple Class Pass-Through Securities: Certain Trusts may invest in multiple class pass-through securities, including collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) and commercial mortgage-backed securities. These multiple class securities may be issued by Ginnie Mae, U.S. Government agencies or instrumentalities or by trusts formed by private originators of, or investors in, mortgage loans. In general, CMOs are debt obligations of a legal entity that are collateralized by, and multiple class pass-through securities represent direct ownership interests in, a pool of residential or commercial mortgage loans or mortgage pass-through securities (the “Mortgage Assets”), the payments on which are used to make payments on the CMOs or multiple pass-through securities. Classes of CMOs include interest only (“IOs”), principal only (“POs”), planned amortization classes and targeted amortization classes. IOs and POs are stripped mortgage-backed securities representing interests in a pool of mortgages, the cash flow from which has been separated into interest and principal components. IOs receive the interest portion of the cash flow while POs receive the principal portion. IOs and POs can be extremely volatile in response to changes in interest rates. As interest rates rise and fall, the value of IOs tends to move in the same direction as interest rates. POs perform best when prepayments on the underlying mortgages rise since this increases the rate at which the principal is returned and the yield to maturity on the PO. When payments on mortgages underlying a PO are slower than anticipated, the life of the PO is lengthened and the yield to maturity is reduced. If the underlying Mortgage Assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the Trusts may not fully recoup its initial investment in IOs.

Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities: Certain Trusts may invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities issued by the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities. Stripped mortgage-backed securities are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest (IOs) and principal (POs) distributions on a pool of Mortgage Assets. The Trusts also may invest in stripped mortgage-backed securities that are privately issued.

Zero-Coupon Bonds: Certain Trusts may invest in zero-coupon bonds, which are normally issued at a significant discount from face value and do not provide for periodic interest payments. Zero-coupon bonds may experience greater volatility in market value than similar maturity debt obligations which provide for regular interest payments.

Capital Trusts and Trust Preferred Securities: Certain Trusts may invest in capital trusts and/or trust preferred securities. These securities are typically issued by corporations, generally in the form of interest-bearing notes with preferred securities characteristics, or by an affiliated business trust of a corporation, generally in the form of beneficial interests in subordinated debentures or similarly structured securities. The securities can be structured as either fixed or adjustable coupon securities that can have either a perpetual or stated maturity date. For trust preferred securities, the issuing bank or corporation will pay interest to the trust, which will then be distributed to holders of the trust preferred securities as a dividend. Dividends can be deferred without creating an event of default or acceleration, although maturity cannot take place unless all cumulative payment obligations have been met. The deferral of payments does not affect the purchase or sale of these securities in the open market. Payments on these securities are treated as interest rather than dividends for federal income tax purposes. These securities generally are rated below that of the issuing company’s senior debt securities and are freely callable at the issuer’s option.

Preferred Stock: Certain Trusts may invest in 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,

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015 | 63

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

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.

Floating Rate Loan Interests: Certain Trusts may invest in floating rate loan interests. The floating rate loan interests held by the Trusts are typically issued to companies (the “borrower”) by banks, other financial institutions, and privately and publicly offered corporations (the “lender”). Floating rate loan interests are generally non-investment grade, often involve borrowers whose financial condition is troubled or uncertain and companies that are highly leveraged. The Trusts may invest in obligations of borrowers who are in bankruptcy proceedings. Floating rate loan interests may include fully funded term loans or revolving lines of credit. Floating rate loan interests are typically senior in the corporate capital structure of the borrower. Floating rate loan interests generally pay interest at rates that are periodically determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. The base lending rates are generally the lending rate offered by one or more European banks, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), the prime rate offered by one or more U.S. banks or the certificate of deposit rate. Floating rate loan interests may involve foreign borrowers, and investments may be denominated in foreign currencies. The Trusts consider these investments to be investments in debt securities for purposes of its investment policies.

When a Trust purchases a floating rate loan interest, it may receive a facility fee and when it sells a floating rate loan interest, it may pay a facility fee. On an ongoing basis, the Trusts may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit amount of a floating rate loan interest. Facility and commitment fees are typically amortized to income over the term of the loan or term of the commitment, respectively. Consent and amendment fees are recorded to income as earned. Prepayment penalty fees, which may be received by the Trusts upon the prepayment of a floating rate loan interest by a borrower, are recorded as realized gains. The Trusts may invest in multiple series or tranches of a loan. A different series or tranche may have varying terms and carry different associated risks.

Floating rate loan interests are usually freely callable at the borrower’s option. The Trusts may invest in such loans in the form of participations in loans (“Participations”) or assignments (“Assignments”) of all or a portion of loans from third parties. Participations typically will result in the Trusts having a contractual relationship only with the lender, not with the borrower. The Trusts will have the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the Participation and only upon receipt by the lender of the payments from the borrower. In connection with purchasing Participations, the Trusts generally will have no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement, nor any rights of offset against the borrower, and the Trusts may not benefit directly from any collateral supporting the loan in which it has purchased the Participation. As a result, the Trusts will assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the Participation. The Trusts’ investment in loan participation interests involves the risk of insolvency of the financial intermediaries who are parties to the transactions. In the event of the insolvency of the lender selling the Participation, the Trusts may be treated as a general creditor of the lender and may not benefit from any offset between the lender and the borrower. Assignments typically result in the Trusts having a direct contractual relationship with the borrower, and the Trusts may enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement.

In connection with floating rate loan interests, the Trusts may also enter into unfunded floating rate loan interests (“commitments”). In connection with these commitments, the Trusts earn a commitment fee, typically set as a percentage of the commitment amount. Such fee income, which is included in interest income in the Statements of Operations, is recognized ratably over the commitment period. Unfunded floating rate loan interests are marked-to-market daily, and any unrealized appreciation or depreciation is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and Statements of Operations. As of February 28, 2015, the Trusts had no outstanding unfunded floating rate loan interests.

Forward Commitments and When-Issued Delayed Delivery Securities: Certain Trusts may purchase securities on a when-issued basis and may purchase or sell securities on a forward commitment basis. Settlement of such transactions normally occurs within a month or more after the purchase or sale commitment is made. The Trusts may purchase securities under such conditions with the intention of actually acquiring them, but may enter into a separate agreement to sell the securities before the settlement date. Since the value of securities purchased may fluctuate prior to settlement, the Trusts may be required to pay more at settlement than the security is worth. In addition, the Trusts are not entitled to any of the interest earned prior to settlement. When purchasing a security on a delayed delivery basis, the Trusts assume the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. In the event of default by the counterparty, the Trusts’ maximum amount of loss is the unrealized appreciation of unsettled when-issued transactions, which is shown in the Schedules of Investments.

TBA Commitments: Certain Trusts may enter into TBA commitments. TBA commitments are forward agreements for the purchase or sale of mortgage-backed securities for a fixed price, with payment and delivery on an agreed upon future settlement date. The specific securities to be delivered are not identified at the trade date. However, delivered securities must meet specified terms, including issuer, rate and mortgage terms. When entering into TBA commitments, the Trusts may take possession of or deliver the underlying mortgage-backed securities but can extend the settlement or roll the transaction. TBA commitments involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased or sold declines or increases, respectively, prior to settlement date.

64 | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

In order to better define contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Trusts mitigate their counterparty risk, TBA commitments may be entered into by the Trusts under Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreements (each, an “MSFTA”). An MSFTA typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of default and/or termination event. 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 the collateral currently pledged by a Trust and the counterparty. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover the obligations of a Trust and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged as collateral for TBA commitments or cash received as collateral for TBA commitments, respectively. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Trust, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments. Typically, the Trusts are permitted to sell, repledge or use the collateral they receive; however, the counterparty is not permitted to do so. To the extent amounts due to the Trusts are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Trusts bear the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance.

Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions: Certain Trusts may sell TBA mortgage-backed securities and simultaneously contract to repurchase substantially similar (i.e., same type, coupon and maturity) securities on a specific future date at an agreed upon price. During the period between the sale and repurchase, the Trusts will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities sold. The Trusts account for mortgage dollar roll transactions as purchases and sales and realizes gains and losses on these transactions. These transactions may increase the Trusts’ portfolio turnover rate. Mortgage dollar rolls involve the risk that the market value of the securities that the Trusts are required to purchase may decline below the agreed upon repurchase price of those securities.

Borrowed Bond Agreements: Certain Trusts may enter into borrowed bond agreements. In a borrowed bond agreement, the Trusts borrow a bond from a counterparty in exchange for cash collateral. The borrowed bond agreement contains a commitment that the security and the cash will be returned to the counterparty and the Trusts at a mutually agreed upon date. Certain agreements have no stated maturity and can be terminated by either party at any time. Borrowed bond agreements are entered into primarily in connection with short sales of bonds. Earnings on cash collateral and compensation to the lender of the bond are based on agreed upon rates between the Trusts and the counterparty. The value of the underlying cash collateral approximates the market value and accrued interest of the borrowed bond. To the extent that a borrowed bond transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the cash collateral in the possession of the counterparty is monitored on a daily basis to ensure the adequacy of the collateral. As the market value of the borrowed bond changes, the cash collateral is periodically increased or decreased with a frequency and in amounts prescribed in the borrowed bond agreement. The Trusts may also experience delays in gaining access to the collateral.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements: Certain Trusts may enter into reverse repurchase agreements with qualified third party broker-dealers. In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Trusts sell securities to a bank or broker-dealer and agree to repurchase the same securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price. During the term of the reverse repurchase agreement, the Trusts continue to receive the principal and interest payments on the securities sold. Certain agreements have no stated maturity and can be terminated by either party at any time. Interest on the value of the reverse repurchase agreements issued and outstanding is based upon competitive market rates determined at the time of issuance. The Trusts may utilize reverse repurchase agreements when it is anticipated that the interest income to be earned from the investment of the proceeds of the transaction is greater than the interest expense of the transaction. Reverse repurchase agreements involve leverage risk and also the risk that the market value of the securities to be repurchased may decline below the repurchase price.

For financial reporting purposes, cash received in exchange for securities delivered plus accrued interest due to the counterparty is recorded as a liability in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities at face value including accrued interest. Due to the short-term nature of the reverse repurchase agreements, face value approximates fair value. Interest payments made by the Trusts to the counterparties are recorded as a component of interest expense in the Statements of Operations. In periods of increased demand for the security, the Trusts may receive a fee for use of the security by the counterparty, which may result in interest income to the Trusts.

Treasury Roll Transactions: Certain Trusts may enter into treasury roll transactions. In a treasury roll transaction, the Trusts sell a Treasury security to a counterparty with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same security at an agreed upon price and future settlement date. The Trusts receive cash from the sale of the Treasury security to use for other investment purposes. The difference between the sale price and repurchase price represents net interest income or net interest expense reflective of an agreed upon rate between the Trusts and the counterparty over the term of the borrowing. For U.S. GAAP purposes, a treasury roll transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and not as a purchase or sale. During the term of the borrowing, interest income from the Treasury security and the related interest expense on the secured borrowing is recorded by the Trusts on an accrual basis. The Trusts will benefit from the transaction if the income earned on the investment purchased with the cash received in the treasury roll transaction exceeds the interest expense incurred by the Trusts. If the interest expense exceeds the income earned, the Trusts’ net investment income and dividends to shareholders may be adversely impacted. Treasury roll transactions involve the risk that the market value of the securities that the Trusts are required to repurchase may decline below the agreed upon repurchase price of those securities.

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015 | 65

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

For the six months ended February 28, 2015, the average amount of reverse repurchase agreements and treasury roll transactions outstanding and the daily weighted average interest rates were as follows:

|  |  |  | Average Amount Outstanding |  | Daily Weighted Average Interest Rate
BHK |  |  |  | $ | 267,444,068 |  |  |  | 0.28% |
BKT |  |  |  | $ | 203,403,774 |  |  |  | 0.19% |

Borrowed bond agreements and reverse repurchase transactions are entered into by the Trusts under Master Repurchase Agreements (each, an “MRA”), which permit the Trusts, under certain circumstances, including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables under the MRA with collateral held and/or posted to the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from the Trusts. With borrowed bond agreements and reverse repurchase transactions typically the Trusts and the counterparties are permitted to sell, re-pledge, or use the collateral associated with the transaction. Bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of the MRA counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency. Pursuant to the terms of the MRA, the Trusts receive or post securities as collateral with a market value in excess of the repurchase price to be paid or received by the Trusts upon the maturity of the transaction. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, the Trusts are considered an unsecured creditor with respect to excess collateral and, as such, the return of excess collateral may be delayed.

As of February 28, 2015, the following table is a summary of the Trusts’ open borrowed bond and reverse repurchase agreements by counterparty which are subject to offset under an MRA on a net basis:

66 | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

Short Sales: Certain Trusts may enter into short sale transactions in which the Trusts sell a security they do not hold in anticipation of a decline in the market price of that security. When the Trusts make a short sale, they will borrow the security sold short (borrowed bond) and deliver the security to the counterparty to which they sold the security short. An amount equal to the proceeds received by the Trusts is reflected as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the market value of the short sale. The Trusts are required to repay the counterparty interest on the security sold short, which is shown as interest expense in the Statements of Operations. The Trusts are exposed to market risk based on the amount, if any, that the market value of the security increases beyond the market value at which the position was sold. Thus, a short sale of a security involves the risk that instead of declining, the price of the security sold short will rise. The short sale of securities involves the possibility of a theoretically unlimited loss since there is a theoretically unlimited potential for the market price of the security sold short to increase. A gain, limited to the price at which the Trusts sold the security short, or a loss, unlimited as to the dollar amount, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale if the market price is either less than or greater than the proceeds originally received. There is no assurance that the Trusts will be able to close out a short position at a particular time or at an acceptable price.

4. 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 economically hedge their exposure to certain risks such as credit risk, equity risk, interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk. These contracts may be transacted on an exchange or OTC.

Financial Futures Contracts: The Trusts invest in long and/or short positions in financial futures contracts and options on financial futures contracts to gain exposure to, or economically hedge against, changes in interest rates (interest rate risk), changes in the value of equity securities (equity risk) or foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk). Financial 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 at a specified date. Depending on the terms of the particular contract, financial futures contracts are settled either through physical delivery of the underlying instrument on the settlement date or by payment of a cash settlement amount on the settlement date.

Upon entering into a financial 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 on the Schedules of Investments and cash deposited, if any, is recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged for financial futures contracts. 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 value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin. Variation margin is recorded by the Trusts as unrealized appreciation or depreciation and, if applicable, as a receivable or payable for variation margin in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

When the contract is closed, the Trusts record a realized gain or loss 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 financial futures contracts involves the risk of an imperfect correlation in the movements in the price of financial futures contracts, interest or foreign currency exchange rates and the underlying assets.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The Trusts enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts as an economic hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio instruments or to obtain exposure to, or hedge exposure away from, 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 future date. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts, when used by the Trusts, help to manage the overall exposure to the currencies in which some of the investments held by the Trusts are denominated. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Trusts as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed, the Trusts record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. 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: The Trusts purchase and write call and put options to increase or decrease their exposure to underlying instruments including equity risk and interest rate 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. When the Trusts purchase (write) an option, an amount equal to the premium paid (received) by the Trusts is reflected as an asset (liability). The amount of the asset (liability) is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased (written). When an instrument is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the instrument acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the instrument sold. When an option expires (or the Trusts enter into a closing transaction), the Trusts realize a gain or loss on the option to the

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015 | 67

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

extent of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss 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 “covered,” meaning that the Trusts 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.

Options on swaps (“swaptions”) are similar to options on securities except that instead of selling or purchasing the right to buy or sell a security, the writer or purchaser of the swaptions is granting or buying the right to enter into a previously agreed upon interest rate or credit default swap agreement (interest rate risk and/or credit risk) at any time before the expiration of the option.

The Trusts also purchase or sell listed or OTC foreign currency options, foreign currency futures and related options on foreign currency futures as a short or long hedge against possible variations in foreign exchange rates or to gain exposure to foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk). When foreign currency is purchased or sold through an exercise of a foreign currency option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the foreign currency acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the foreign currency sold (receipts from the foreign currency purchased). Such transactions may be effected with respect to hedges on non-U.S. dollar denominated instruments owned by the Trusts but not yet delivered, or committed or anticipated to be purchased by the Trusts.

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.

1 |  | Amount shown is in the currency in which the transaction was denominated.

Swaps: The Trusts enter into swap agreements in which the Trusts and a counterparty agree either to make periodic net payments on a specified notional amount or a net payment upon termination. Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the OTC market and may be entered into as a bilateral contract (“OTC swaps”) or centrally cleared (“centrally cleared swaps”). Swaps are marked-to-market daily and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation).

For OTC swaps, any upfront premiums paid are recorded as assets and any upfront fees received are recorded as liabilities and are shown as swap premiums paid and swap premiums received, respectively, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and amortized over the term of the OTC swap. Payments received or made by the Trusts for OTC swaps are recorded in the Statements of Operations as realized gains or losses, respectively. When an OTC swap is terminated, the Trusts will record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Trusts’ basis in the contract, if any. Generally, the basis of the contract is the premium received or paid.

In a centrally cleared swap, immediately following execution of the swap agreement, the swap agreement is novated to a central counterparty (the “CCP”) and the Trusts’ counterparty on the swap agreement becomes the CCP. The Trusts are required to interface with the CCP through a broker. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, 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 the size and risk profile of the particular swap. Securities deposited as initial margin are designated on the Schedules of Investments and cash deposited is recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged for centrally cleared swaps. The daily change in valuation of centrally cleared swaps is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Payments received from (paid to) the counterparty, including at termination, are recorded as realized gain (loss) in the Statements of Operations.

Swap transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of interest rate, credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of the contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates and/or market values associated with these transactions.

• |  | Credit default swaps — The Trusts enter into credit default swaps to manage their exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market, to reduce their risk exposure to defaults of corporate and/or sovereign issuers or to create exposure to corporate and/or sovereign issuers to which they are not otherwise exposed (credit risk). The Trusts may either buy or sell (write) credit default swaps on single-name issuers (corporate or sovereign), a combination or basket of single-name issuers or traded indexes. Credit default swaps on single-name issuers are agreements in which the protection buyer pays fixed periodic payments to the seller in consideration for a guarantee from the protection seller to make a specific payment should a negative credit event take place with respect to the referenced entity (e.g., bankruptcy, failure to pay, obligation accelerators, repudiation, moratorium or restructuring). Credit default swaps on traded indexes are agreements in which the buyer pays fixed periodic payments to the seller in consideration for a guarantee from the seller to make a specific payment should a write-down, principal or interest shortfall or default of all or individual underlying securities included in the index occur. As a buyer, if an underlying credit event occurs, the Trusts will either (i) receive from the seller an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced security or underlying securities comprising the index, or (ii) receive a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising the index. As a seller (writer), if an underlying credit event occurs, the Trusts will either pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced security or underlying securities comprising the index or pay a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising the index.

• |  | Interest rate swaps — The Trusts enter into interest rate swaps to gain or reduce exposure to interest rates or to manage duration, the yield curve or interest rate risk by economically hedging the value of the fixed rate bonds, which may decrease when interest rates rise (interest rate risk). Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating, for another party’s stream of interest payments, either fixed or floating, on the same notional amount for a specified period of time. In more complex swaps, the notional principal amount may decline (or amortize) over time.

• |  | Forward interest rate swaps — The Trusts may enter into forward interest rate swaps and forward total return swaps. In a forward swap, each Trust and the counterparty agree to make either periodic net payments beginning on a specified future effective date or a net payment at termination, unless terminated earlier.

Counterparty Credit Risk: 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 Trusts’ risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on OTC derivatives is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized gain netted against any collateral held by such Trust. For OTC options purchased, each Trust bears the risk of loss of the amount of the premiums paid plus the positive change in market values net of any collateral held by such Trust 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.

With exchange-traded purchased options and futures and centrally cleared swaps, 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, the Trusts do not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency) of the clearing broker or clearinghouse. Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps 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.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Trusts 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

70 | SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

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 its 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 the Trusts 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 party has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold (typically either $250,000 or $500,000) 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, the Trusts and counterparties are not permitted to sell, re-pledge or use the collateral they receive. To the extent amounts due to the Trusts from their counterparties are not fully collateralized, the Trusts bear the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. Likewise, to the extent the Trusts have delivered collateral to a counterparty and stands ready to perform under the terms of its agreement with such counterparty, the Trusts 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.

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.

As of February 28, 2015, the Trusts’ derivative assets and liabilities (by type) are as follows:

5. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

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

Each Trust entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Manager, the Trusts’ investment advisor, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, to provide investment advisory services for each Trust and administration services for BHK and HYT.

The following Trust’s investment advisory fee paid to the Manager is computed weekly and payable monthly based on an annual rate of its average total assets (including any assets attributable to borrowings) minus the sum of total liabilities (other than debt representing financial leverage):

BHK |  |  |  | 0.50%

Prior to November 10, 2014, BHK paid the manager an investment advisory fee at an annual rate 0.55%.

The following Trust’s investment advisory fee paid to the Manager is computed daily and payable monthly based on an annual rate of its average total assets (including any assets attributable to borrowings) minus the sum of total liabilities (other than debt representing financial leverage):

HYT |  |  |  | 0.60%

The following Trust’s investment advisory fee paid to the Manager is computed weekly and payable monthly based on an annual rate of its average net assets:

BKT |  |  |  | 0.65%

BKT has an Administration Agreement with the Manager. The administration fee BKT pays to the Manager is computed weekly and payable monthly based on an annual rate of 0.15% of BKT’s average net assets.

The Manager voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of investment advisory fee with respect to BHK at an annual rate of 0.03%, as a percentage of average weekly net assets. This voluntary waiver was discontinued in connection with BHK’s reorganization with BNA. For the six months ended February 28, 2015, the Manager waived $33,047, which is included in fees waived by Manager in the Statements of Operations for BHK.

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015 | 73

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |

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. 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. These amounts are included in fees waived by Manager in the Statements of Operations. For the six months ended February 28, 2015, the amounts waived were as follows:

|  |  |  | BHK |  | HYT |  | BKT
Amounts waived |  |  |  | $ | 2,037 |  |  | $ | 694 |  |  | $ | 3,520 |

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

Certain officers and/or Trustees of the Trusts are officers and/or directors 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.

The Trusts may purchase securities from, or sell securities to, an affiliated fund provided the affiliation is due solely to having a common investment advisor, common officers, or common trustees. For the six months ended February 28, 2015, the purchase and sale transactions with an affiliated fund in compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act were as follows:

|  |  |  | Purchases |  | Sales
HYT |  |  |  |  | $42,939 |  |  |  | — |

6. Purchases and Sales:

For the six months ended February 28, 2015, purchases and sales of investments including paydowns, mortgage dollar roll and TBA transactions and excluding short-term securities, were as follows:

Sales |  |  |  | $ | 36,064,249 |  |  |  | — |  |  | $ | 401,475,650 |

7. Income Tax Information:

It is each Trust’s 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, except with respect to any taxes related to the Taxable Subsidiaries.

Each Trust files 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 U.S. federal tax returns remains open for each of the four years ended August 31, 2014. The statutes 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 February 28, 2015, inclusive of the open tax return 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 February 28, 2015, gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation based on cost for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) |  |  |  | $ | 64,078,746 |  |  | $ | (20,340,286 | ) |  | $ | 6,682,146 |

8. Borrowings:

HYT is party to a senior committed secured, 360-day rolling line of credit facility and a separate security agreement (the “SSB Agreement”) with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“SSB”). SSB may elect to terminate its commitment upon 360-days written notice to HYT. As of February 28, 2015, HYT has not received any notice to terminate. HYT has granted a security interest in substantially all of its assets to SSB.

The SSB Agreement allows for a maximum commitment amount of $798,000,000 for HYT.

Advances will be made by SSB to HYT, at HYT’s option of (a) the higher of (i) 0.80% above the Fed Funds rate and (ii) 0.80% above the Overnight LIBOR or (b) 0.80% above 7-day, 30-day, 60-day or 90-day LIBOR.

In addition, HYT pays a facility fee and utilization fee (based on the daily unused portion of the commitments). The commitment fees are waived if HYT meets certain conditions. The fees associated with the agreement are included in the Statements of Operations as borrowing costs, if any. Advances to HYT as of February 28, 2015 are shown in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as bank borrowings payable. Based on the short-term nature of the borrowings under the line of credit and the variable interest rate, the carrying amount of the borrowings approximates fair value.

HYT may not declare dividends or make other distributions on shares or purchase any such shares if, at the time of the declaration, distribution or purchase, asset coverage with respect to the outstanding short-term borrowings is less than 300%.

For the six months ended February 28, 2015, the average amount of bank borrowings and the daily weighted average interest rate for HYT with loans under the revolving credit agreement were $684,955,801 and 0.09%, respectively.

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 of a security to meet all its obligations (issuer credit risk). The value of securities held by the Trusts may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Trusts; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency, interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to issuer credit risk, the Trusts may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Trusts have unsettled or open transactions may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments. The Trusts manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that they believe 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 Trusts’ exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is generally approximated by their value recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Trusts.

The Trusts invest a significant portion of their assets in fixed-income securities and/or use derivatives tied to the fixed-income markets. See the Schedules of Investments for these securities and/or derivatives. Changes in market interest rates or economic conditions may affect the value and/or liquidity of such investments. Interest rate risk is the risk that prices of bonds and other fixed-income securities will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The Trusts may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to the current period of historically low rates.

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT | FEBRUARY 28, 2015 | 75

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded) |

Certain Trusts invest a significant portion of their assets in securities backed by commercial or residential mortgage loans or in issuers that hold mortgage and other asset-backed securities. Investment percentages in these securities are presented in the Schedules of Investments. Changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults on assets underlying these securities, can affect the value, income and/or liquidity of such positions.

10. Capital Share Transactions:

BHK is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares, par value $0.001, all of which were initially classified as Common Shares. BKT is authorized to issue 200 million shares, par value $0.01, all of which were initially classified as Common Shares. HYT is authorized to issue 200 million shares, par value $0.10, all of which were initially classified as Common Shares. The Board is authorized, however, to reclassify any unissued shares without approval of Common Shareholders.

Shares issued and outstanding for the six months ended February 28, 2015 increased by 26,893,279 due to the reorganization and previously remained constant for the year ended August 31, 2014 for BHK.

Shares issued and outstanding remained constant for the six months ended February 28, 2015 and increased 91,181,428 due to the reorganization during the year ended August 31, 2014 for HYT.

Shares issued and outstanding remained constant during the six months ended February 28, 2015 and the year ended August 31, 2014 for BKT.

HYT filed a final prospectus with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) allowing it to issue an additional 10,425,000 Common Shares through an equity shelf program (a “Shelf Offering”). Under the Shelf Offering, HYT, 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 HYT’s net asset value (“NAV”) per Common Share (calculated within 48 hours of pricing). Please see Additional Information — Shelf Offering Program for additional information about the Shelf Offering.

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

11. Subsequent Events:

Management’s evaluation the impact of all subsequent events on the Trusts’ financial statements was completed through the date the financial statements were issued and the following items were noted:

The Trusts paid a net investment income dividend in the following amounts per share on March 31, 2015 to shareholders of record on March 13, 2015:

|  |  |  | Common Dividend Per Share
BHK |  |  |  | $0.075500
HYT |  |  |  | $0.070000
BKT |  |  |  | $0.031000

Additionally, the Trusts declared a net investment income dividend on April 1, 2015 payable to shareholders of record on April 15, 2015 for the same amounts noted above.

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 on capital. 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.

Additional Information (continued) |

General Information

The Trusts do not make available copies of their Statements of Additional Information because the Trusts’ shares are not continuously offered, which means that the Statement of Additional Information of each Trust has 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.

On December 5, 2014, the Board of HYT adopted the following non-fundamental investment policy change: “As a non-fundamental investment policy, the Trust may invest up to 25% of it’s total assets in corporate loans extended to borrowers by commercial banks or other financial institutions.“ This investment policy change increased the percentage of total assets that HYT may invest in corporate loans from 15% to 25%. As a result of this investment policy change, corporate loans comprise a higher portion of HYT’s portfolio, which may increase the Trust’s exposure to corporate loans. Please see “Floating Rate Loan Interests” in Note 3 to the Notes to Financial Statements for additional information about corporate loans.

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

Quarterly performance, semi-annual and annual reports, current net asset value and other information regarding the Trusts may be found on BlackRock’s website, which can be accessed at http://www.blackrock.com. 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.

Electronic Delivery

Electronic copies of most financial reports are available on the Trusts’ website or shareholders can sign up for e-mail notifications of quarterly statements, annual and semi-annual reports by enrolling in the Trusts’ electronic delivery program.

Shareholders Who Hold Accounts with Investment Advisors, Banks or Brokerages:

Please contact your financial advisor to enroll. Please note that not all investment advisors, banks or brokerages may offer this service.

Householding

The Trusts will mail only one copy of shareholder documents, including annual and semi-annual reports and proxy statements, to shareholders with multiple accounts at the same address. This practice is commonly called “householding” and is intended to reduce expenses and eliminate duplicate mailings of shareholder documents. Mailings of your shareholder documents may be householded indefinitely unless you instruct us otherwise. If you do not want the mailing of these documents to be combined with those for other members of your household, please call the Trusts at (800) 882-0052.

Availability of Quarterly Schedule of Investments

The Trusts file their complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Trusts’ Forms N-Q are available on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and may also be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. Information on how to access documents on the SEC’s website without charge may be obtained by calling (800) SEC-0330. The Trusts’ Forms N-Q may also be obtained upon request and without charge by calling (800) 882-0052.

Section 19(a) Notices

These amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates provided to you pursuant to regulatory requirements and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources for tax reporting purposes will depend upon each Trust’s investment experience during the year and may be subject to changes based on the tax regulations. Each Trust will provide a Form 1099-DIV each calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

February 28, 2015 |
|  |  |  | Total Cumulative Distributions for the Fiscal Year-to-Date |  | % Breakdown of the Total Cumulative Distributions for the Fiscal Year-to-Date
|  |  |  | Net Investment Income |  | Net Realized Capital Gains |  | Return of Capital |  | Total Per Common Share |  | Net Investment Income |  | Net Realized Capital Gains |  | Return of Capital |  | Total Per Common Share
BHK |  |  |  | $ | 0.307424 |  |  |  | — |  |  | $ | 0.315576 |  |  | $ | 0.623000 |  |  |  | 49 | % |  |  | 0 | % |  |  | 51 | % |  |  | 100 | %
HYT |  |  |  | $ | 0.501813 |  |  |  | — |  |  | $ | 0.050187 |  |  | $ | 0.552000 |  |  |  | 91 | % |  |  | 0 | % |  |  | 9 | % |  |  | 100 | %

The Trust estimates that it has 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 the Trust is returned to the shareholder. A return of capital does not necessarily reflect the Trust’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income.’ When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will incrementally reduce the Trust’s net asset value per share.

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. Each Trust, other than HYT, has not filed a registration statement with respect to any Shelf Offerings. This report is not an offer to sell Trust Common Shares and is not a solicitation of an offer to buy Trust Common Shares. If a Trust files a registration with respect to any Shelf Offering, the prospectus contained therein will contain more complete information about the Trust and should be read carefully before investing.

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