In accordance with the Plans, the Trusts currently distribute the following fixed amounts per share on a quarterly basis:

Exchange Symbol Amount Per Common Share
BDV $0.162500
BDJ $0.170000
BDT $0.162500
BQR $0.235000
BGR $0.405000

BME $0.384375
BGY $0.340000
BCF $0.271800
BCX $0.350000
BQY $0.250000

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

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

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

Please refer to the Additional Information for a cumulative summary of the Section 19(a) notices for each Trust’s current fiscal period. Section 19(a) notices for the Trusts, as applicable, are available on the BlackRock website http:// www.blackrock.com.

Dear Shareholder

Time and again, we have seen how various global events and developing trends can have significant influence on financial markets. I hope you find that the following review of recent market conditions provides additional perspective on the performance of your investments as you read this shareholder report.

Over the past 12 months, we have seen a sluggish, stimulus-driven economic recovery at long last gain real traction, accelerate, and transition into a consumption-driven expansion. For the most part, 2010 was plagued with widely fluctuating economic data, but as the year drew to a close, it became clear that cyclical stimulus had beaten out structural problems as economic data releases generally became more positive and financial markets showed signs of continuing improvement. Although the sovereign debt crisis in Europe and high inflation in developing markets that troubled the global economy in 2010 remain challenges today, overall investor confidence has improved considerably. During the first four months of 2011, that confidence was shaken by political turmoil in the Middle East/North Africa region, soaring prices of oil and other commodities, tremendous natural disasters in Japan and a change in the ratings outlook for US debt. However, strong corporate earnings prevailed and financial markets resumed their course while the global economy continued to garner strength.

Equity markets experienced uneven growth and high volatility in 2010, but ended the year with gains. Following a strong start to 2011, the series of confidence-shaking events brought spurts of heightened volatility to markets worldwide, but was not enough to derail the bull market. Overall, global equities posted strong returns over the past 12 months. Emerging market equities, which had outperformed developed markets earlier in the period, fell prey to heightened inflationary pressures and underperformed developed markets later in the period. In the United States, strong corporate earnings and positive signals from the labor market were sources of encouragement for equity investors, although the housing market did not budge from its slump. Early in 2011, the US Federal Reserve announced that it would continue its Treasury purchase program (“QE2”) through to completion and keep interest rates low for an extended period. This compelled investors to continue buying riskier assets, furthering the trend of small cap stocks outperforming large caps.

While fixed income markets saw yields trend lower (pushing bond prices higher) through most of 2010, the abrupt reversal in investor sentiment and risk tolerance in the fourth quarter drove yields sharply upward. Global credit markets were surprisingly resilient in the face of recent headwinds and yields regained relative stability as the period came to a close. Yield curves globally remained steep by historical standards and higher-risk sectors continued to outperform higher-quality assets. The tax-exempt municipal market enjoyed a powerful rally during the period of low yields in 2010, but when that trend reversed, the market was dealt an additional blow as it became evident that the Build America Bond program would not be extended. Meanwhile, municipal finance troubles raised credit concerns among investors and tax-exempt mutual funds experienced heavy outflows, resulting in wider spreads and falling prices. The new year brought relief from these headwinds and a steady rebound in the tax-exempt municipal market.

Cash investments, as represented by the 3-month Treasury bill, returned only a fraction over 0% for the 12-month period as short-term interest rates remained low. Yields on money market securities remain near all-time lows.

Risk Assets Rallied on Growing Investor Confidence: Total Returns as of April 30, 2011 — US large cap equities (S&P 500 Index) 16.36 % 17.22 %
US small cap equities (Russell 2000 Index) 23.73 22.20
International equities (MSCI Europe, Australasia, Far East Index) 12.71 19.18
Emerging market equities (MSCI Emerging Markets Index) 9.74 20.67
3-month Treasury bill (BofA Merrill Lynch 3-Month Treasury Bill Index) 0.09 0.17
US Treasury securities (BofA Merrill Lynch 10-Year US Treasury Index) (3.85 ) 6.37
US investment grade bonds (Barclays Capital US Aggregate Bond Index) 0.02 5.36
Tax-exempt municipal bonds (Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index) (1.68 ) 2.20
US high yield bonds (Barclays Capital US Corporate High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index) 6.18 13.32

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2011 BlackRock Equity Dividend Trust

Trust Overview

Effective May 9, 2011, BlackRock Dividend AchieversTM Trust changed its name to BlackRock Equity Dividend Trust.

BlackRock Equity Dividend Trust’s (BDV) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide total return through a combination of current income, capital gains and long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in dividend paying equities. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. The Trust utilizes an option writing (selling) strategy to enhance dividend yield.

The Board approved a change to the Trust’s non-fundamental investment policies during the period. Please refer to page 123 in the Additional Information section.

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 months ended April 30, 2011, the Trust returned 9.66% based on market price and 13.61% based on net asset value (“NAV”). For the same period, the benchmark Indxis Broad Dividend Achievers Index (“Dividend Achievers Index”) returned 14.53% and the broader market, as measured by the Russell 1000 Index and the Russell 1000 Value Index, returned 17.12% and 17.29%, respectively. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion of relative performance based on NAV pertains to the Dividend Achievers Index.

What factors influenced performance?

• The Trust’s overweight position and strong stock selection in energy were the largest contributors to performance during the six-month period. Overweight positions in the major integrated oil & gas companies as well as select oil services names proved additive amid rising crude prices and improving refining margins. Stock selection and an underweight in financials also added to performance. Our preference for the larger diversified banks and insurance companies aided performance, led by strong returns from JPMorgan Chase & Co. Stock selection in gas utilities and an underweight in the overall utilities sector added to returns.

• Stock selection in the industrials sector was the largest detractor from relative performance during the period, as large-cap holdings in aerospace & defense rallied less sharply than benchmark holdings in machinery and commercial services. Stock selection in consumer discretionary also hurt relative performance, led by Target Corp., which posted modestly negative absolute returns during the six-month period. Stock selection in telecommunication services also detracted from relative returns.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• Relatively few changes were made to the portfolio during the six-month period. Pursuant to the changes announced on May 9, 2011, Indxis Inc.’s Dividend Achievers will no longer be used as the sole investment universe. Instead, the Trust will alter its investment guidelines to investing across the broader spectrum of dividend-paying equities.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

• Consistent with the Trust’s long-term objective, the portfolio is positioned to continue to generate current income while producing market-equivalent or better total returns from a portfolio of higher-quality stocks. We continue to see growing measures of strength and stability in the fundamentals of our companies, and believe that our relative positioning in the large-cap space will continue to improve. Underneath the aggregate characteristics and structure of the market, we have seen a clear segmentation of equity returns by beta (sensitivity to market volatility), which we believe is in the process of de-segmenting. It is our view that market leadership will ultimately rest in the hands of large-cap companies that have proven, time and again, that they can reduce costs, increase efficiencies and sustain healthy earnings through market peaks and troughs. Though macroeconomic headwinds and geopolitical risks remained in the headlines for most of the period, the large-cap segment proved resilient and our companies continued to report meaningful levels of growth. Our current sector allocation reflects a higher level of confidence in the global economy, a belief that emerging markets will continue to be an integral part of a wider recovery and the expectation that dividend growth will be an important part of an equity investor’s total return for 2011.

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 April 30, 2011 BlackRock Enhanced Equity Dividend Trust

Trust Overview

Effective May 9, 2011, BlackRock Enhanced Dividend Achievers TM Trust changed its name to BlackRock Enhanced Equity Dividend Trust.

BlackRock Enhanced Equity Dividend Trust’s (BDJ) (the “Trust”) primary investment objective is to provide current income and current gains, with a secondary investment objective of long-term capital appreciation.

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

The Board approved a change to the Trust’s non-fundamental investment policies during the period. Please refer to page 123 in the Additional Information section.

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 months ended April 30, 2011, the Trust returned 4.12% based on market price and 10.85% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark Dividend Achievers Index returned 14.53% and the broader market, as measured by the Russell 1000 Index and the Russell 1000 Value Index, returned 17.12% and 17.29%, respectively.

• Stock selection in the industrials sector was the primary cause of the Trust’s underperformance relative to the benchmark. Stock selection in consumer discretionary and telecommunication services also hampered performance.

Our current sector allocation reflects a higher level of confidence in the global economy, a belief that emerging markets will continue to be an integral part of a wider recovery and the expectation that dividend growth will be an important part of an equity investor’s total return for 2011.

• On June 1, 2011, the Trust announced the reduction of its quarterly distribution per common share effective with its declaration that day. This dividend reduction takes into account the Trust’s relatively high current distribution level, the current level of the Trust’s net assets and current and projected levels of dividend income, option premiums and volatility in the market.

• Strong stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector was the largest contributor to performance during the six-month period. The Trust’s underweight position and positive stock selection in health care also boosted performance. An underweight and stock selection in consumer staples also added to returns.

• Conversely, stock selection in energy was the largest detractor from relative performance. Stock selection and an underweight in information technology (IT) also hampered relative returns, as did stock selection in materials.

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2011 BlackRock EcoSolutions Investment Trust

Trust Overview

BlackRock EcoSolutions Investment Trust’s (BQR) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide total return through a combination of current income, current gains and long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities issued by companies that are engaged in one or more of New Energy (e.g., products, technologies and services connected to the efficient use of energy or the provision or manufacture of alternative forms of energy), Water Resources and Agriculture business segments. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. The Trust utilizes an option writing (selling) strategy to enhance dividend yield.

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 months ended April 30, 2011, the Trust returned 11.11% based on market price and 9.97% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Sector Equity Funds category posted an average return of 15.73% based on market price and 16.00% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s premium to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

• Seven of the 10 top-performing positions in the portfolio were in agriculture. For most of the six-month period, grains enjoyed significant price strength; the Trust was able to benefit from positive grain price momentum as well as farming’s improving economics as many of the sleeve’s holdings supply farming inputs. Some of the Trust’s holdings in water utilities also contributed strongly to performance. These results were buoyed by investor demand for defensive stocks, improving fundamentals and, in the case of US-based stocks such as American Water and Aqua America, more positive regulatory momentum.

• The outlook for new energy is much improved, and many of the sleeve’s holdings were positive contributors. However, for stock-specific reasons, two of the main detractors from the overall performance of the Trust were new energy holdings: a wind turbine manufacturer reported that orders from its largest customer had been postponed, and a smart metering company issued some cautious guidance for 2011 which led to some share price weakness.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• During the six-month period, the Trust closed its position in a US-listed Chinese water company Duoyuan Global Water. We also reduced the Trust’s exposure to renewable energy stocks, namely wind and solar companies. The proceeds were reinvested in the energy efficiency space.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

• At period end, the Trust held 34% in the water sleeve, 43% in the agriculture sleeve and 23% the new energy sleeve.

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2011 BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust

Trust Overview

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

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 months ended April 30, 2011, the Trust returned 27.31% based on market price and 30.52% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Sector Equity Funds category posted an average return of 15.73% based on market price and 16.00% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

• Overall, performance benefited from a favorable market environment for natural resources-related equities in a rising commodity price environment; almost all areas of exposure to this segment contributed to strong absolute and relative performance during the six-month period. Energy stocks were particularly strong as oil prices climbed to more than $100/barrel. The Trust’s emphasis on oil and coal producers was the key driver of outperformance.

• Stock selection in the energy equipment & services segment was the largest detractor, driven by underweight positions in Baker Hughes and Halliburton, two particularly strong names during the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• During the six-month period, portfolio positioning remained largely unchanged. The management team opportunistically added to select natural gas-oriented stocks as the group had lagged their more oil-oriented peers.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

• Despite recent gains, we remain content with overall positioning as we continue to favor upstream producers of coal and oil; more recently, we added to natural gas producers as this segment has lagged the broad sector. We remain modestly underweight within oil & gas drilling and oil & gas equipment & services and significantly underweight in major integrated oil companies, refiners and downstream-oriented companies.

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2011 BlackRock Global Opportunities Equity Trust

Trust Overview

BlackRock Global Opportunities Equity Trust’s (BOE) (the “Trust”) primary investment objective is to provide current income and current gains, with a secondary investment objective of long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing primarily in equity securities issued by companies located in countries throughout the world and utilizing an option writing (selling) strategy to enhance dividend yield. The Trust invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities or options on equity securities or indices or sectors of equity securities. Under normal circumstances, the Trust invests a substantial amount of its total assets in foreign issuers, issuers that primarily trade in a market located outside the United States or issuers that do a substantial amount of business outside the United States. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives.

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

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

• For the six months ended April 30, 2011, the Trust returned 7.41% based on market price and 10.50% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark MSCI All Country World Index posted a return of 14.06%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust moved from a premium to NAV to a discount by period-end, which 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 stock selection in the energy and financials sectors was the largest source of weakness relative to the MSCI All Country World Index. Stock selection in IT, industrials and, to a lesser degree, telecommunication services also detracted from performance.

• Conversely, stock selection in the materials and utilities sectors combined to add the most relative value. The Trust’s exposures to consumer staples and consumer discretionary modestly contributed to performance. From an allocation perspective, the Trust’s underweight positions in financials and utilities were appropriately timed and contributed to relative returns, as both sectors underperformed broader markets during the six-month period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• At the sector level, the largest changes occurred in the industrials and financials sectors, where exposure was substantially increased; we also increased the Trust’s energy weighting. Proceeds to fund the buys came primarily from profit taking and selling in IT, utilities, health care and consumer staples. The Trust’s cash position was also reduced.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

• We remain constructive yet cautious on the markets as we closely monitor the pulse of global growth through the Trust’s focus on sub-industry and company fundamentals. The portfolio is positioned to benefit from continued improvement in industrials, such as construction & engineering, trading companies and employment services; materials exposures to diversified chemicals and miners; consumer discretionary-related industries including tires & rubber and cable & satellite operators; energy-related exposures including oil equipment & services and coal; and health care equipment & services.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

• For the six months ended April 30, 2011, the Trust returned 10.47% based on market price and 15.66% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark Russell 3000 Healthcare Index returned 16.84%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

• The Trust generated strong positive returns during the period, but underperformed the benchmark especially during the months of December and April when benchmark performance was particularly strong. The Trust’s underperformance was due to a combination of stock selection and relative industry allocation. In particular, an underweight allocation to biotechnology detracted from relative returns as the industry performed well on merger and acquisition speculation. Stock selection in the space also had a negative impact on the Trust’s performance. Similarly, an underweight allocation to the managed health care segment, which benefited from reduced regulatory headlines in the new year, detracted from Trust performance, but was partially offset by strong performing stock selection within the allocation.

• The primary drivers of the Trust’s overall positive performance came from beneficial stock selection in pharmaceuticals, life sciences tools, healthcare equipment & supplies and healthcare facilities. The Trust also benefited from an overweight in pharmaceuticals and underweight in life sciences tools.

• The Trust holds cash for transactional liquidity and risk management purposes and its cash investments are actively managed based on market and risk environments. Cash investments by nature will hinder a portfolio’s performance when markets are advancing (and, likewise, will benefit a portfolio in a declining market). The Trust’s cash balance caused a slight drag on relative returns as would be expected during a period in which benchmark performance was strong.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• The Trust’s largest additions occurred in health care equipment, health care services and health care distributors. These purchases were funded by cash reserves as well as profit taking from reductions in biotechnology, managed health care and pharmaceuticals.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

• At period end, the portfolio’s allocation (and relative overweight/ underweight) was 33% in health care equipment & supplies and life sciences tools & services (10% overweight), 31% health care providers & services (9% overweight), 21% pharmaceuticals (21% underweight) and 13% biotechnology (1% underweight) with the remaining balance in machinery. We hold a constructive outlook on the sector as we gather continued signals that health care utilization in the United States is positioned to slowly improve. We believe that improving economic data may lead to the possibility of improved health care trends while, at the same time, the healthcare sector continues to benefit from its defensive characteristics.

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Trust perform?

• For the six months ended April 30, 2011, the Trust returned 20.94% based on market price and 20.68% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Sector Equity Funds category posted an average return of 15.73% based on market price and 16.00% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s premium to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

• The energy sleeve of the Trust was the largest driver of returns, as energy stocks were particularly strong with oil prices climbing to more than $100/barrel; the Trust’s emphasis on oil and coal producers was the key driver of returns within the energy segment. The metals & mining segment was also a strong contributor, largely as a result of exposure to select diversified metals & mining names; top performers included Iluka Resources, Xstrata and BHP Billiton. The majority of the Trust’s investments in precious metals & minerals also contributed to returns.

• Conversely, select segments within the materials sector created a drag on returns, as they posted relatively low returns during the six-month period. Among these were fertilizers, gold mining names, steel, industrial gases and paper packaging.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• During the six-month period, the weighting of the three sleeves (energy, natural resources and basic materials) of the portfolio remained constant. In the energy sleeve, the management team opportunistically added to select natural gas-oriented stocks as the group had lagged their more oil-oriented peers. The basic materials sleeve remained relatively unchanged. Within metals, we took profits from Australian mineral sands producer Iluka, as it had performed well on the strength in the mineral sands market. We also increased the Trust’s exposure to copper and bulk commodities within the metals space, notably thermal and coking coal.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

• At period end, the Trust’s natural resources sleeve (44%) was biased toward diversified metals & mining names and had meaningful exposure to precious metals. Holdings in the energy sleeve (35%) were concentrated in the oil, gas & consumable fuels industry, mostly among exploration & production and coal names. In the basic materials sleeve (21%), the Trust’s industry allocation was most heavily weighted in chemicals.

• For the period beginning with the Trust’s initial trading date of March 30, 2011 through April 30, 2011, the Trust returned 0.10% based on market price and 0.47% based on NAV. For the period of April 1, 2011 through April 30, 2011, the closed-end Lipper Sector Equity Funds category posted an average return of 1.83% based on market price and 3.30% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust ended the period trading at a premium to NAV, which 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 began investing the proceeds of its offering period on April 1, 2011. The management team is leveraging the pullback in the natural resources space since the end of the first quarter 2011 as an opportunity to initiate portfolio positions at attractive prices and will continue to invest the portfolio during the coming months.

• The earnings generated through the Trust’s option writing strategy enhanced performance for the period.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• The proceeds of the Trust’s offering are being gradually invested in order to take advantage of the recent pullback in the natural resources market.

• We invested the proceeds gradually in order to spread costs over a period of time, as we anticipated commodity prices would come down.

• We focused attention on the metals space and de-emphasized the agriculture space in the first month.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

• The Trust was partially invested at the end of the period; we will continue to invest the proceeds of the Trust’s offering so as to initiate positions at attractive levels with potential for both capital appreciation and income.

Trust Summary as of April 30, 2011 BlackRock S&P Quality Rankings Global Equity Managed Trust

Trust Overview

BlackRock S&P Quality Rankings Global Equity Managed Trust’s (BQY) (the “Trust”) investment objective is to provide total return through a combination of current income, current gains and long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities of issuers that pay above-average dividends and have the potential for capital appreciation. The Trust invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities included in the S&P Quality Rankings that are ranked at least B+ by S&P at the time of investment. Under normal circumstances, the Trust invests a substantial amount of its total assets in foreign issuers, issuers that primarily trade in a market located outside the United States or issuers that do a substantial amount of business outside the United States. The Trust may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. The Trust utilizes an option writing (selling) strategy to enhance dividend yield.

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 months ended April 30, 2011, the Trust returned 10.13% based on market price and 12.02% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark MSCI World Value Index returned 15.17%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV.

What factors influenced performance?

• Stock selection in the industrials sector was the largest contributor to performance during the six-month period. Stock selection in utilities and materials also added to returns.

• Conversely, stock selection in consumer discretionary was the largest detractor from relative performance. An underweight position in energy also hurt relative performance, as did stock selection in IT. The Trust’s period-end cash position hurt relative performance amid strong gains by the US equity market.

Describe recent portfolio activity.

• During the six-month period, there were no significant changes made to the portfolio.

Describe Trust positioning at period end.

• Consistent with the Trust’s long-term objective, the portfolio is positioned to continue to generate current income while producing market-equivalent or better total returns from a portfolio of higher-quality stocks. We continue to see growing measures of strength and stability in the fundamentals of our companies, and believe that our relative positioning in the large-cap space will continue to improve. Underneath the aggregate characteristics and structure of the market, we have seen a clear segmentation of equity returns by beta, which we believe is in the process of de-segmenting. It is our view that market leadership will ultimately rest in the hands of large cap companies who have proven, time and again, that they can reduce costs, increase efficiencies and sustain healthy earnings through market peaks and troughs. Our current sector allocation reflects a higher level of confidence in the global economy, a belief that emerging markets will continue to be an integral part of a wider recovery and the expectation that dividend growth will be an important part of an equity investor’s total return for 2011.

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.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Trusts may invest in various derivative financial instruments, including foreign currency exchange contracts and options, as specified in Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements, which may constitute forms of economic leverage. Such instruments are used to obtain exposure to a market without owning or taking physical custody of securities or to hedge market, equity or foreign currency exchange rate risks. Such derivative financial instruments involve risks, including the imperfect correlation between the value of a derivative instrument and the underlying asset, possible default of the counterparty to the transaction or illiquidity of the derivative instrument. The Trusts’ ability to use a derivative 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 require a Trust to sell or purchase portfolio investments at inopportune times or for distressed values, may limit the amount of appreciation a Trust can realize on an investment, may result in lower dividends paid to shareholders or may cause a Trust to hold a security that it might otherwise sell. The Trusts’ investments in these instruments are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

• 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)

• 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 ratings group indexes, and/or as defined by Trust management. These definitions may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine 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 are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows:

• Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

• 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)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivatives and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of 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 ratings group indexes, and/or as defined by Trust management. These definitions may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine 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 are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows:

• Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

• 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)

• 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)

• 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)

• Fair Value Measurements – Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows:

• Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

• 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)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

• 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)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

The following tables summarize the inputs used as of April 30, 2011 in determining the fair valuation of the Trust’s investments and derivative financial instruments:

• Fair Value Measurements – Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows:

• Level 1 – price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities

• 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)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies:

BlackRock Equity Dividend Trust (“BDV”), BlackRock Enhanced Equity Dividend Trust (“BDJ”), BlackRock Strategic Equity Dividend Trust (“BDT”), BlackRock EcoSolutions Investment Trust (“BQR”), BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust (“BGR”) BlackRock Global Opportunities Equity Trust (“BOE”), BlackRock Health Sciences Trust (“BME”), BlackRock International Growth and Income Trust (“BGY”), BlackRock Real Asset Equity Trust (“BCF”), BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust (“BCX”) and BlackRock S&P Quality Rankings Global Equity Managed Trust (“BQY”) (collectively, the “Trusts”) are organized as Delaware statutory trusts. All Trusts, except BQR, BGR, BME, BGY, BCF and BCX are registered as diversified, closed-end management investment companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). BQR, BGR, BME, BGY, BCF and BCX are registered as non-diversified, closed-end management investment companies under the 1940 Act. Prior to commencement of operations on March 30, 2011, BCX had no operations other than those relating to organizational matters and the sale of 6,964 Common Shares on February 11, 2011 to BlackRock HoldCo 2, Inc. for $100,012. Investment operations for BCX commenced on March 30, 2011. The Trusts’ financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), which may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosure in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Trusts determine and make available for publication the net asset values of their shares on a daily basis.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trusts:

Valuation: US GAAP defines fair value as the price the Trust would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Trust fair values their financial instruments at market value using independent dealers or pricing services under policies approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Equity investments traded on a recognized securities exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market System (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the last reported sale price that day or the NASDAQ official closing price, if applicable. For equity investments traded on more than one exchange, the last reported sale 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 price. If no bid price is available, the prior day’s price will be used unless it is determined that such prior day’s price no longer reflects the fair value of the security. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

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

Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollars using exchange rates determined as of the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). 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 such prior day’s price no longer reflects the fair value of the option. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) options are valued by an independent pricing service or through brokers 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 application of these methods of valuation results in a price for an investment which is deemed not to be representative of the market value of such investment or is not available, the investment will be valued in accordance with a policy approved by the Board as reflecting fair value (“Fair Value Assets”). When determining the price for Fair Value Assets, the investment advisor and/or sub-advisor seeks to determine the price that each Trust might reasonably expect to receive from the current sale of that asset in an arm’s-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon all available factors that the investment advisor and/or sub-advisor deems relevant. The pricing of all Fair Value Assets is subsequently reported to the Board or a committee thereof.

Generally, trading in foreign instruments is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of business on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the values of such instruments may occur between the foreign market close and the close of business on the NYSE that may not be reflected in the computation of the Trust’s net assets. If events (for example, 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 Assets and be valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the investment advisor using a pricing service and/or policies approved by the Board. Each business day, the Trust uses a

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT APRIL 30, 2011 109

Table of Contents

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

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 Transactions: Each Trust’s books and records are maintained in US dollars. Purchases and sales of investment securities are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date the transactions are entered into. Generally, when the US dollar rises in value against a foreign currency, the Trust’s investments denominated in that currency will lose value because its currency is worth fewer US dollars; the opposite effect occurs if the US dollar falls in relative value.

Each Trust reports realized currency gains (losses) on foreign currency related transactions as components of net realized gain (loss) for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

Segregation and Collateralization: In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) require that a Trust either delivers collateral or segregates assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., options written or foreign currency exchange contracts), each Trust will, consistent with SEC rules and/or certain interpretive letters issued by the SEC, segregate collateral or designate on its books and records cash or liquid securities having a market value at least equal to the amount that would otherwise be required to be physically segregated. Furthermore, based on requirements and agreements with certain exchanges and third party broker-dealers, each party to such transactions has requirements to deliver/deposit securities as collateral for certain investments.

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

Dividends and Distributions: Dividends and distributions paid by the Trusts are recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Subject to each Trust’s level distribution plan, a Trust intends to make monthly cash dividends and/or distributions to shareholders, which may consist of net investment income, net options premium and net realized and unrealized gains on investments. The portion of dividends and distributions that exceeds a Trust’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, which are measured on a tax basis, may be treated as a tax return of capital. The character of dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from US GAAP.

Securities Lending: The Trusts may lend securities to approved borrowers, such as banks, brokers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges cash, securities issued or guaranteed by the US government or irrevocable letters of credit issued by a bank as collateral, which will be maintained at all times in an amount equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the loaned securities. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Trusts and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Trust on the next business day. Securities lending income, as disclosed in the Statements of Operations, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral, net of rebates paid to, or fees paid by, borrowers and less the fees paid to the securities lending agent. During the term of the loan, the Trusts earn dividends and interest on the securities loaned but do not receive dividend or interest income on the securities received as collateral. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions. In the event that the borrower defaults on its obligation to return borrowed securities because of insolvency or for any other reason, the Trusts could experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Trusts also could suffer a loss if the value of an investment purchased with cash collateral falls below the market value of loaned securities or if the value of an investment purchased with cash collateral falls below the value of the original cash collateral received. During the period, participating Trusts accepted only cash collateral in connection with securities loaned.

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

The Trusts file US federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on the Trusts’ US federal tax returns remains open for each of the four periods ended October 31, 2010. The statute of limitations on the Trusts’ state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction. Management does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

Dividend Achievers Universe: BDV, BDJ and BDT have been granted a revocable license by Indxis, Inc. (“Indxis”) to use the Dividend Achievers TM universe of common stocks. If Indxis revokes each Trust’s license to use the Dividend Achievers TM universe, the Board of that Trust may need to adopt a new investment strategy and/or new investment policies. There is no assurance that a Trust would pursue or achieve its

investment objective during the period in which it implements these replacement investment policies or strategies. “Indxis” and “Dividend Achievers TM ” are trademarks of Indxis and have been licensed for use by BDV, BDJ, and BDT. The products are not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by Indxis and Indxis makes no representation regarding the advisability of investing in any of these three Trusts. The Trusts are required to pay a quarterly licensing fee, which is shown in the Statements of Operations as licensing. Effective May 9, 2011, the Dividend Achievers Universe is no longer used by BDV, BDJ and BDT.

S&P Quality Rankings: BQY has been granted a license by Standard & Poor’s ® (“S&P”) to use the S&P Quality Rankings and the S&P

International Quality Rankings. If S&P terminates the license to use either the S&P Quality Rankings or the S&P International Quality Rankings, the Board may need to adopt a new investment strategy and/ or new investment policies. There is no assurance that the Trust would pursue or achieve its investment objective during the period in which it implements these replacement investment policies or strategies. “Standard & Poor’s,” “S&P,” “Standard & Poor’s Earnings and Dividend Rankings,” “S&P Earnings and Dividend Rankings,” “Standard & Poor’s Quality Rankings,” “Standard & Poor’s International Quality Rankings,” “S&P International Quality Rankings” and “S&P Quality Rankings” are trademarks of S&P and have been licensed for use by the Trust. The Trust is not sponsored, endorsed, managed, sold or promoted by S&P and S&P makes no representation regarding the availability of investing in each Trust. The Trust is required to pay a quarterly licensing fee, which is shown in the Statements of Operations as licensing.

Deferred Compensation and BlackRock Closed-End Share Equivalent Investment Plan: Under the deferred compensation plan approved by each Trust’s Board, 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 approximately the same economic effect for the Independent Trustees as if the Independent Trustees had invested the deferred amounts directly in other certain BlackRock Closed-End Funds.

The deferred compensation plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of each Trust. Each Trust may, however, elect to invest in common shares of certain other BlackRock Closed-End Funds selected by the Independent Trustees in order to match its deferred compensation obligations. Investments to cover the Trusts’ deferred compensation liability, if any, are included in other assets in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Dividends and distributions from the BlackRock Closed-End Fund investments under the plan are included in income – affiliated in the Statements of Operations, if any.

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

2. Derivative Financial Instruments:

The Trusts engage in various portfolio investment strategies using derivative contracts both to increase the returns of the Trusts and to economically hedge, or protect, their exposure to certain risks such as equity risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk. These contracts may be contracted on an exchange or OTC.

Losses may arise if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The Trusts’ maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on OTC derivatives is generally the aggregate unrealized gain netted against any collateral pledged by/posted to the counterparty. For OTC options purchased, the Trusts bear the risk of loss in the amount of the premiums paid plus the positive change in market values net of any collateral received on the options should the counterparty fail to perform under the contracts. Options written by the Trusts do not give rise to counterparty credit risk, as options written obligate the Trusts to perform and not the counterparty. Counterparty risk related to exchange-traded options is deemed to be minimal due to the protection against defaults provided by the exchange on which these contracts trade.

The Trusts’ mitigate counterparty risk by procuring collateral and through netting provisions included within an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) implemented between a Trust and each of its respective counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreement allows each Trust to offset with each separate counterparty certain derivative financial instrument’s payables and/or receivables with collateral held. The amount of collateral moved to/from applicable counterparties is generally based upon minimum transfer amounts of up to $500,000. To the extent amounts due to the Trusts from their counterparties are not fully collateralized contractually or otherwise, the Trusts bear the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. See Note 1 “Segregation and Collateralization” for information with respect to collateral practices. In addition, the Trusts manage counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that it believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

Certain ISDA Master Agreements allow counterparties to OTC derivatives 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, which would cause the Trusts to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty.

Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: Certain Trusts may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts as an economic hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio instruments or to obtain exposure to foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk). A 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. Foreign currency exchange contracts, when used by a Trust, help to manage the overall exposure to the currencies in which some of the

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT APRIL 30, 2011 111

Table of Contents

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

investments held by a Trust are denominated. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by a Trust as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed, a Trust records 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 foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk that the value of a foreign currency exchange contract changes unfavorably due to movements in the value of the referenced foreign currencies and the risk that a counterparty to the contract does not perform its obligations under the agreement.

Options: The Trusts purchase and write call and put options to increase or decrease their exposure to underlying instruments (including equity risk and/or interest rate risk) and/or, in the case of options written, to generate gains from options premiums. A call option gives the purchaser of the option the right (but not the obligation) to buy, and obligates the seller 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 Trust purchases (write) an option, an amount equal to the premium paid (received) by the Trust 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 Trust enters into a closing transaction), the Trust realizes a gain or loss on the option to the 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 Trust writes a call option, such option is “covered,” meaning that the Trust holds the underlying instrument subject to being called by the option counterparty. When the Trust writes a put option, such option is covered by cash in an amount sufficient to cover the obligation.

In purchasing and writing options, a Trust bears 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 a Trust purchasing or selling a security at a price different from the current market value.

Each Trust entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), the Trusts’ investment advisor, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, to provide investment advisory and administration services. The Manager is responsible for the management of each Trust’s portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of each Trust.

BCX pays the Manager a monthly fee at the annual rate of 1.20% the average daily value of the Trust’s net assets. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the investment advisory fees on BGR and BCF as a percentage of their average weekly net assets as follows: 0.20% for the first five years of the Trusts’ operations (2006 through 2011 for BCF), 0.15% in 2010 for BGR and in 2012 for BCF, 0.10% in 2011 for BGR and in 2013 for BCF and 0.05% in 2012 for BGR and in 2014 for BCF.

The Trusts have received an exemptive order from the SEC permitting them, among other things, to pay an affiliated securities lending agent a fee based on a share of the income derived from the securities lending activities and has retained BIM as the securities lending agent. BIM may, on behalf of the Trusts, invest cash collateral received by the Trusts for such loans, among other things, in a private investment company managed by the Manager or in registered money market funds advised by the Manager or its affiliates.

Under the recently enacted Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, capital losses incurred by the Fund after October 31, 2011 will not be subject to expiration. In addition, these losses must be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years.

6. Concentration, Market and Credit Risk:

BOE and BQY invest a substantial amount of their assets in issuers located in a single country or a limited number of countries. When such Trusts concentrate their investments in this manner, they assume the risk that economic, political and social conditions in those countries may have a significant impact on their investment performance. Please see the Schedules of Investments for concentrations in specific countries. 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 and interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to issuer credit risk, the Trusts may be exposed to counterparty 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 manages counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that it

116 SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT APRIL 30, 2011

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded)

believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Trusts to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Trusts’ exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is generally approximated by their value recorded in the Trusts’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Trusts.

The Trusts listed below invest a significant portion of their assets in securities in the following sectors:

Consumer Staples BDV, BDJ
Financials BDT
Materials BQR, BCF, BCX
Utilities BDT, BQR
Energy BGR, BCF, BCX
Health Care BME

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

As of April 30, 2011, the Trusts listed below had the following industry classifications:

Industry — Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels 8 % 8 % 12 %
Commercial Banks 9 14 13
Pharmaceuticals 5 – 8
Insurance 5 – –
Metals & Mining 5 8 –
Diversified Telecommunication – – 5
Other* 68 70 62
  • All other industries held were each less than 5% of long-term investments.

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement

The Board of Trustees (the “Board,” the members of which are referred to as “Board Members”) of BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust (the “Trust”) met on February 11, 2011 to consider the approval of the Trust’s investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) among the Trust, BlackRock Cayman Resources & Commodities Strategy Fund, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Trust formed in the Cayman Islands (the “Subsidiary”), and BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), the Trust’s and the Subsidiary’s investment advisor. The Board also considered the approval of the sub-investment advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between the Manager and BlackRock Capital Management, Inc. (the “Sub-Advisor”), with respect to the Trust and the Subsidiary. The Manager and the Sub-Advisor are referred to herein as “BlackRock.” The Advisory Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement are referred to herein as the “Agreements.” The Trust and the Subsidiary sometimes are referred to herein collectively as the “Fund.”

Activities and Composition of the Board

At the time the Board considered the Agreements, the Board consisted of ten individuals, eight of whom were not “interested persons” of the Trust as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) (the “Independent Board Members”). The Board Members are responsible for the oversight of the operations of the Fund and perform the various duties imposed on the directors of investment companies by the 1940 Act. The Independent Board Members have retained independent legal counsel to assist them in connection with their duties. The Chairman of the Board is an Independent Board Member. The Board has established five standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Governance and Nominating Committee, a Compliance Committee, a Performance Oversight Committee and an Executive Committee, each of which is composed of Independent Board Members (except for the Executive Committee, which also has one interested Board Member) and is chaired by an Independent Board Member. The Board also has one ad hoc committee, the Joint Product Pricing Committee, which consists of Independent Board Members and the directors/trustees of the boards of certain other BlackRock-managed funds, who are not “interested persons” of their respective funds.

The Agreements

Pursuant to the 1940 Act, the Board is required to consider the initial approval of the Agreements. In connection with this process, the Board assessed, among other things, the nature, scope and quality of the services to be provided to the Fund by the personnel of BlackRock and its affiliates, including investment management, administrative and shareholder services, oversight of fund accounting and custody, marketing services and assistance in meeting applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

Board Considerations in Approving the Agreements

The Approval Process: Prior to the February 11, 2011 meeting, the Board received materials specifically relating to the Agreements. The materials provided in connection with the February 11, 2011 meeting included information regarding (i) the investment objectives and policies of the Fund; (ii) the team of investment advisory personnel assigned to the Fund; (iii) the Fund’s management fee and estimated total operating expenses as compared with a peer group of funds as determined by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”); and (iv) certain anticipated direct and indirect “fallout” benefits to BlackRock from its relationship with the Fund. Periodically, the Board Members, in connection with their duties as trustees or directors of other funds in the BlackRock family of closed-end funds, have received other information including general information regarding BlackRock’s management of such funds, BlackRock’s management of relationships with service providers to such funds, resources devoted to compliance with such funds’ investment objectives and policies, the structure and expertise of the Advisors and their parent companies, BlackRock’s policies and procedures in respect of execution of portfolio transactions and other matters.

At a meeting with the Independent Board Members attending in person, on February 11, 2011, the Board, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed materials relating to its consideration of the Agreements and thereafter unanimously approved the Advisory Agreement among the Manager, the Trust and the Subsidiary and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the Sub-Advisor, with respect to the Trust and the Subsidiary. In approving the Agreements, the Board considered, among other factors: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by BlackRock; (b) the investment performance of BlackRock portfolio management in general; (c) the advisory fee and the cost of the services and profits to be realized by BlackRock and its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund; (d) economies of scale; and (e) other factors deemed relevant by the Board Members.

The Board also considered other matters it deemed important to the approval process, such as services related to the valuation and pricing of Fund portfolio holdings, direct and indirect benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates and significant shareholders from their relationship with the Fund and advice from independent legal counsel with respect to the review process and materials submitted for the Board’s review. The Board noted the willingness of BlackRock personnel to engage in open, candid discussions with the Board. The Board did not identify any particular information as controlling, and each Board Member may have attributed different weights to the various items considered.

A. Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services Provided by BlackRock

The Board, including the Independent Board Members, considered the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by BlackRock. The Board considered, among other factors, BlackRock’s compliance record, including whether other funds advised by BlackRock have operated within their investment objectives, policies and restrictions, the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions, the number, education and experience of BlackRock’s investment personnel generally and the Fund’s portfolio management team, investments by portfolio managers in the funds they manage, BlackRock’s portfolio trading capabilities, BlackRock’s use of technology, BlackRock’s commitment to compliance, BlackRock’s credit analysis capabilities, BlackRock’s risk analysis capabilities and BlackRock’s approach to training and retaining portfolio

managers and other research, advisory and management personnel. The Board also reviewed a general description of BlackRock’s compensation structure with respect to the Fund’s portfolio management team and BlackRock’s ability to attract and retain high-quality talent.

In addition to advisory services, the Board considered the quality of the administrative and non-investment advisory services to be provided to the Fund. BlackRock and its affiliates and significant shareholders provide the Fund with certain administrative and other services (in addition to any such services provided to the Fund by third parties) and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the operations of the Fund. In addition to investment advisory services, BlackRock and its affiliates provide the Fund with other services, including (i) preparing disclosure documents, such as the prospectus and the statement of additional information in connection with the initial public offering and periodic shareholder reports; (ii) preparing communications with analysts to support secondary market trading of the Fund; (iii) assisting with daily accounting and pricing; (iv) preparing periodic filings with regulators and stock exchanges; (v) overseeing and coordinating the activities of other service providers; (vi) organizing Board meetings and preparing the materials for such Board meetings; (vii) providing legal and compliance support; and (viii) performing other administrative functions necessary for the operation of the Fund, such as tax reporting, fulfilling regulatory filing requirements, and call center services. The Board reviewed the structure and duties of BlackRock’s fund administration, accounting, legal and compliance departments and considered BlackRock’s policies and procedures for assuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

B. The Investment Performance of Portfolio Management

The Board, including the Independent Board Members, previously received and considered information about BlackRock’s investment performance for other BlackRock-advised funds. The Board, however, did not consider the performance history of the Fund because the Fund was newly organized and had not yet commenced operations as of the February 11, 2011 meeting.

C. Consideration of the Advisory Fees:

The Board, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed the Fund’s contractual management fee ratio compared with the other funds in its Lipper category. It also compared the Fund’s total expense ratio, as well as the actual management fee ratio, to those of other funds in its Lipper category. The funds within the peer group were selected by Lipper, which is not affiliated with the Manager. The Board noted that the net asset value of the Trust’s investment in the Subsidiary is not included in the calculation of the Trust’s management fee. The Board also noted the fees paid to the Manager by the Subsidiary.

The peer group selected by Lipper for the Fund contained seven non-leveraged closed-end funds, which included the Fund, two sector equity funds and four real estate funds. The peer group comparison was done within five sub categories of fees and expenses: (i) contractual management fees; (ii) total expenses including investment related expenses and taxes; (iii) total expenses excluding investment related expenses and taxes; (iv) management fees based on common shares; and (v) non-management expenses.

When compared to all the funds in the peer group with fees and expenses expressed as a percentage of net assets, the Fund’s contractual management fee, before giving effect to any fee waivers by the Manager, was above the median, while the Fund’s actual management fees and actual expenses, after giving effect to any fee waivers by the Manager, was generally below or in-line with the median. The Board also compared the Fund’s management fees and total expenses to certain other closed-end funds of similar strategy and noted that the Fund’s management fees and total expenses were comparable to the management fees and total expenses of such funds.

During the Board Members’ deliberations in connection with its approval of the management fee, the Board Members were aware that BlackRock intended to pay compensation, out of its own assets, to the lead underwriter and to certain qualifying underwriters of the Trust’s common shares and of the anticipated amounts of such compensation and the general nature of the services to be rendered to BlackRock in consideration of such compensation. The Board Members also considered whether the management fee met applicable standards in light of the services provided by the Manager, without regard to whether the Manager ultimately pays any portion of the anticipated compensation to the underwriters. The Board also considered whether BlackRock has the financial resources necessary to attract and retain high quality investment management personnel to perform its obligations under the Agreements and to continue to provide the high quality of services that is expected by the Board.

As the Fund had not commenced operations as of the date of the February 11, 2011 meeting, BlackRock was not able to provide the Board with specific information concerning the expected profits to be realized by BlackRock and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund. BlackRock, however, will provide the Board with such information at future meetings.

Following consideration of this information, the Board, including the Independent Board Members, concluded that the fees to be paid pursuant to the Agreements were fair and reasonable in light of the services to be provided.

D. Economies of Scale

The Board, including the Independent Board Members, considered the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as the assets of the Fund increase. The Board also considered the extent to which the Fund may benefit from such economies and whether there should be changes in the advisory fee rate or structure in order to enable the Fund to participate in these economies of scale, for example through the use of breakpoints in the advisory fee based upon the asset level of the

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT APRIL 30, 2011 119

Table of Contents

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement (concluded)

Fund. Based on the ad hoc Joint Product Pricing Committee’s and the Board’s review and consideration of this issue, the Board concluded that closed-end funds are typically priced at scale at a fund’s inception; therefore, the implementation of breakpoints was not necessary.

The Board noted that most closed-end fund complexes do not have fund level breakpoints because closed-end funds generally do not experience substantial growth after the initial public offering. The Board noted that only one closed-end fund in the Fund Complex has breakpoints in its fee structure.

E. Other factors Deemed Relevant by the Board Members

The Board, including the Independent Board Members, also took into account other ancillary or “fall-out” benefits that BlackRock or its affiliates and significant shareholders may derive from their respective relationships with the Fund, both tangible and intangible, such as BlackRock’s ability to leverage its investment professionals who manage other portfolios, an increase in BlackRock’s profile in the investment advisory community, and the engagement of BlackRock’s affiliates and significant shareholders as service providers to the Fund, including for administrative and distribution services. The Board also considered BlackRock’s overall operations and its efforts to expand the scale of, and improve the quality of, its operations. The Board also noted that BlackRock may use and benefit from third party research obtained by soft dollars generated by certain registered fund transactions to assist in managing all or a number of its other client accounts. The Board further noted that BlackRock’s funds may invest in affiliated exchange-traded funds without any offset against the management fees payable by the funds to BlackRock.

In connection with its consideration of the Agreements, the Board also received information regarding BlackRock’s brokerage and soft dollar practices. The Board received reports from BlackRock, which included information on brokerage commissions and trade execution practices for BlackRock closed-end funds throughout the year.

The Board, including all of the Independent Board Members, concluded that these ancillary benefits that BlackRock and its affiliates could receive with regard to providing investment advisory and other services to the Fund were consistent with those generally available to other fund sponsors.

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

Conclusion

The Board, including the Independent Board Members, unanimously approved the Advisory Agreement among the Manager, the Trust and the Subsidiary and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the Sub-Advisor, each with respect to the Trust and the Subsidiary. Based upon its evaluation of all of the aforementioned factors in their totality, the Board, including the Independent Board Members, was satisfied that the terms of the Agreements were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders. In arriving at its decision to approve the Agreements, the Board did not identify any single factor or group of factors as all-important or controlling, but considered all factors together, and different Board Members may have attributed different weights to the various factors considered. The Independent Board Members were also assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel in making this determination.

These reported amounts and sources of distributions are estimates 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 explain the character of these dividends and distributions for federal income tax purposes.

Each 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 a Trust is returned to the shareholder. A return of capital does not necessarily reflect a Trust’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income.’

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.

Other than the revisions discussed in the Board approvals on page 123, there were no material changes in the Trusts’ investment objectives or policies or to the Trusts’ charters or by-laws that were not approved by the 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’ portfolio.

Quarterly performance, semi-annual and annual reports and other information regarding each Trust 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 each Trust and does not, and is not intended to, incorporate BlackRock’s website into this report.

Electronic Delivery

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

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

Please contact your financial advisor. 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 it 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 contact the Trusts at (800) 441-7762.

Availability of Quarterly Schedule of Investments

The Trusts file their complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. Each Trust’s 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 the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling (800) SEC-0330. Each Trust’s Forms N-Q may also be obtained upon request and without charge by calling (800) 441-7762.

Availability of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures

A description of the policies and procedures that the Trusts use to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available (1) without charge, upon request, by calling toll-free (800) 441-7762; (2) at www.blackrock.com; and (3) on the SEC’s website at http:// www.sec.gov.

Availability of Proxy Voting Record

Information about how each Trust voted proxies relating to securities held in each Trust’s portfolio during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available upon request and without charge (1) at www.blackrock.com or by calling (800) 441-7762 and (2) on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

Availability of Trust Updates

BlackRock will update performance and certain other data for the Trusts on a monthly basis on its website in the “Closed-end Funds” section of www.blackrock.com. Investors and others are advised to periodically check the website for updated performance information and the release of other material information about the Trusts.

Board Approval

BDV’s, BDJ’s, and BDT’s Boards each approved changes to certain non-fundamental investment objectives and policies employed by each Trust. As a result of these changes, the Trusts no longer use Indxis’s Dividend AchieversTM as the underlying universe for investment in equity securities. Pursuant to the new non-fundamental investment objectives and policies, effective March 9, 2011, each Trust broadened its investment guidelines to investing across the broader spectrum of dividend paying equities. Under normal market conditions, at least 80% of the Trust’s total assets will be invested in dividend paying equities. Also, for BDT, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of the Trust’s total assets will be invested in small- and mid-capitalization companies, as defined by the Russell Mid Cap Index. Similarly, the investment strategy described in the Trusts’ non-fundamental investment objectives or investment policies, as the case may be for each Trust, has been modified to remove reference to “above average” dividend paying equities.

The Board has taken this action as a consequence of recent market events, during which a number of companies reduced, suspended or failed to raise their dividends over the past several years, resulting in their exclusion from consideration as Dividend AchieversTM and reducing the number of available companies for purchase in the Trusts. Given the need to raise dividends for at least ten consecutive calendar years, such companies would be excluded from consideration as Dividend AchieversTM for the foreseeable future.

In addition to the foregoing, the Board also approved changes to the Trusts’ restriction on other eligible investments. Previously, the Trusts were restricted to investing, under normal market conditions, no more than 20% of their total assets in equity securities that are not identified as Dividend AchieversTM by Indxis, Inc. In similar concept to the 80% policy change, the amended policy allows the Trusts to invest, under normal market conditions, up to 20% in equity securities of issuers that do not pay dividends.

Each Trust has also removed investment policies limiting the market cap, position size or number of holdings permitted in such Trust.

BDT has removed its policy that under current market conditions, BDT’s investment advisor and subadvisor will consider an issuer with a market capitalization ranking in the bottom 90% of the market capitalization of all issuers included in the Russell 3000 Index to be a small to mid-capitalization company.

BDT will now invest at least 80% of its total assets in small to mid-capitalization companies, as defined by the Russell Mid Cap Index. BDV and BDJ have each removed its policy limiting its maximum weighting of any individual issuer in its portfolio to 5% at the time of purchase. BDT has removed its policy limiting its investments under current market conditions to no more than (i) 2% of its total assets in mid-capitalization issuers; (ii) 1.5% of its total assets in any small/mid-capitalization issuer; and (iii) 0.5% of its total assets in any small capitalization issuer, at the time of purchase.

BDV and BDJ have each removed its policy limiting its portfolio to approximately 60 to 90 issuers from the top 100 highest yielding common stocks in the Dividend AchieversTM Universe. BDT has removed its policy limiting its portfolio to approximately 100 small to mid-capitalization companies included in the Russell 3000 Index.

Each Trust will remain subject to the fundamental investment restriction that such Trust may not invest 25% or more of the value of its total assets in any one industry or invest, with respect to 75% of its total assets, more than 5% of the value of its total assets in the securities of any single issuer or purchase more than 10% of the outstanding securities of any one issuer.

As disclosed in its prospectus, each Trust is required to provide shareholders 60 days notice of a change to its current non-fundamental policies described above. Accordingly, a notice describing the changes

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT APRIL 30, 2011 123

Table of Contents

Additional Information (concluded)

Board Approval (concluded)

discussed above were mailed to shareholders of record as of March 9, 2011. No action is required by shareholders of the Trusts in connection with this change.

Upon the completion of the 60-day notice period, each Trust’s name changed to reflect this change in non-fundamental policy. Each Trust will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under its current ticker symbol even after the name change becomes effective.

Dividend Policy

The Trusts’ dividend policy is to distribute all or a portion of its net investment income to its shareholders on a quarterly basis. In order to provide shareholders with a more stable level of dividend distributions, the Trusts may at times pay out less than the entire amount of net investment income earned in any particular quarter and may at times in any particular quarter pay out such accumulated but undistributed income in addition to net investment income earned in that quarter. As a result, the dividends paid by the Trusts for any particular quarter may be more or less than the amount of net investment income earned by the Trusts during such quarter. The Trusts’ current accumulated but undistributed net investment income, if any, is disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, which comprises part of the financial information included in this report.
