BlackRock Dividend Achievers TM Trust (BDV), BlackRock Enhanced Dividend Achievers TM Trust (BDJ), BlackRock Strategic Dividend Achievers TM 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) and BlackRock S&P Quality Rankings Global Equity Managed Trust (BQY) (collectively, the “Trusts”), acting pursuant to a Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) exemptive order and with the approval of each Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”), each have adopted a plan, consistent with its investment objectives and policies to support a level distribution of income, capital gains and/or return of capital (the “Plan”). In accordance with the Plans, the Trusts currently distribute the following fixed amounts per share on a quarterly basis:

| Exchange
Symbol | Amount Per
Common Share |
| --- | --- |
| BDV | $0.162500 |
| BDJ | $0.245000 |
| BDT | $0.162500 |
| BQR | $0.300000 |
| BGR | $0.405000 |
| BOE | $0.568750 |
| BME | $0.384375 |
| BGY | $0.340000 |
| BCF | $0.271800 |
| 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 the 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 www.blackrock.com.

2 ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2010

A Letter to Shareholders

D ear Shareholder:

The global economic recovery that began in 2009 has continued on its choppy course this year, delivering mixed but slowly improving economic data and gradual if uneven improvement of investor sentiment. The risks of a double-dip recession continue to recede, but the economy remains mired in a slow-growth environment. In the United States, the National Bureau of Economic Research declared that the “Great Recession” ended in June 2009. Spanning December 2007 to June 2009, this marked the longest reported recession since the Great Depression. Structural problems of ongoing deleveraging and weak spending among businesses and households weigh heavily on the pace of economic growth. The unemployment rate remains stubbornly high in the face of sluggish job gains in the private sector. The US dollar, along with other developed market currencies, has experienced devaluation resulting from aggressively easy monetary and fiscal policies. Given these long-standing conditions, the Federal Reserve Board has announced that additional policy action will be taken to combat deflation and unemployment and promote economic growth.

The high levels of volatility experienced in global equity markets throughout 2009 continued into 2010 as mixed economic data and lingering credit issues caused stocks to trade in both directions, but by the end of the first quarter, most markets had managed to post gains. The second quarter, in contrast, brought higher levels of volatility and a “flight to quality” as investor sentiment was dominated by fears of a double-dip recession. Global equity markets saw negative quarterly returns — and for many markets, the first significant downturn since the bull market began in March 2009. In the third quarter, economic data turned less negative and strong corporate earnings reports became increasingly consistent. These factors, along with attractive valuations and expectations for additional quantitative easing, drove equity markets higher, with most markets recapturing their second quarter losses. Stocks continued their rally into the beginning of the fourth quarter, closing out the 12-month period in positive territory. International equities posted gains on both a six- and 12-month basis. In the United States, both large and small cap equities posted robust gains for the 12-month period, while on a six-month basis, large cap stocks remained relatively flat and small caps turned slightly negative.

In fixed income markets, yields fluctuated but declined significantly over the past 12 months amid heightened uncertainty. Weak economic data, lingering credit problems and, near the end of the period, the expectation of additional quantitative easing drove interest rates lower and bond prices higher. Treasuries rallied over the period, modestly outperforming the credit spread sectors of the market. Corporate credit spreads benefited from the low interest rate environment and high yield fixed income became increasingly attractive due to declining default rates and better-than-expected results on European bank stress tests. Tax-exempt municipal bonds performed well over the 12-month period, driven primarily by technical factors including favorable supply-and-demand dynamics.

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.

Against this backdrop, the major market averages posted the following returns:

| Total
Returns as of October 31, 2010 — US large cap
equities (S&P 500 Index) | 0.74 | % | 16.52 % |

T rust Summary as of October 31, 2010 BlackRock Dividend Achievers TM Trust

| Trust Overview |
| --- |
| BlackRock
Dividend Achievers TM 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 common stocks included in the universe of common stocks of issuers which
Indxis (formerly Mergent), a recognized provider of financial information,
has determined are Dividend Achievers™. Each issuer in the Dividend
Achievers™ universe has been identified as a U.S. publicly traded company
that has consistently increased its regular annual dividend payments for at
least each of the last ten years. 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 current gains. |
| No assurance can be given that
the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved. |
| Performance |
| For the 12 months
ended October 31, 2010, the Trust returned 28.15% based on market price and
17.36% based on net asset value (“NAV”). For the same period, the benchmark
Indxis Broad Dividend Achievers Index (“Dividend Achievers Index”) (formerly
Mergent Broad Dividend Achievers Index) returned 18.27% and the broader
market, as measured by the Russell 1000 Index and the Russell 1000 Value
Index, returned 17.67% and 15.71%, respectively. All returns reflect
reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during
the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price
and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance
based on NAV. Detracting from performance for the period was security
selection in the industrials sector as well as consumer staples and health
care, where the Trust’s holdings in more defensive names weighed on performance.
The Trust’s cash weighting, though minimal, detracted marginally as markets
appreciated. Contributing to performance was stock selection in materials and
in the more stable-yielding utilities sector. An underweight allocation to
financials proved beneficial as the strong price appreciation seen in the
sector early in 2010 trailed off during the year due to significant
headwinds, including increased regulation and a tightening competitive
environment. In addition, earnings generated through the Trust’s option
writing strategy enhanced performance for the period. |

Trust Summary as of October 31, 2010 BlackRock Enhanced Dividend Achievers TM Trust

| Trust Overview |
| --- |
| BlackRock Enhanced
Dividend Achievers TM 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
seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing in common stocks that
pay above average dividends and have the potential for capital appreciation
and by utilizing an option writing (selling) strategy to enhance current
gains. The Trust invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its
assets in common stocks that are included in the universe of common stocks of
issuers which Indxis (formerly Mergent) has determined are Dividend
Achievers™ and options with exposure to such stocks. Each issuer in the
Dividend Achievers™ universe has been identified as a U.S. publicly traded
company that has consistently increased its regular annual dividend payments
for at least each of the last ten years. 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. |
| Performance |
| For the 12 months
ended October 31, 2010, the Trust returned 28.30% based on market price and
15.23% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark Dividend Achievers
Index returned 18.27% and the broader market, as measured by the Russell 1000
Index and the Russell 1000 Value Index, returned 17.67% and 15.71%,
respectively. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust moved
from a discount to NAV to a premium 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. Stock selection
in the industrials sector was the primary cause of the Trust’s
underperformance relative to the benchmark. The Trust’s cash position
hindered relative performance as markets appreciated over the period. Also
detracting was stock selection in consumer staples and health care, where the
Trust’s holdings in more defensive names weighed on performance. Contributing
positively to performance was security selection based on fundamental
analyses in materials, utilities, and telecommunication services; the Trust’s
holdings in these sectors performed as anticipated and generated meaningful
dividend income in an environment where investors avidly sought yield and
income. In addition, earnings generated through the Trust’s option writing
strategy enhanced performance for the period. |

Trust Summary as of October 31, 2010 BlackRock Strategic Dividend Achievers TM Trust

| Trust Overview |
| --- |
| BlackRock Strategic Dividend Achievers TM Trust’s (BDT) (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 common stocks of small to
mid-capitalization 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 common stocks included in the universe of

reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which
narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance
based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates
to performance based on NAV. Stock selection in the financials sector drove
the Trust’s outperformance relative to the benchmark as many of the Trust’s
holdings in lower-capitalized financial names delivered strong performance
toward the end of 2009 and the first half of 2010. A modestly underweight
allocation to health care proved beneficial as did positive stock selection
within the sector. A strategic overweight in utilities provided additional
outperformance. Detracting from performance was stock selection in materials,
where the Trust’s largest holding within the sector turned out to be the
worst performing materials stock. Stock selection in consumer staples also
had a negative impact. The Trust’s cash position hindered relative
performance as markets appreciated over the period. In addition, earnings
generated through the Trust’s option writing strategy enhanced performance
for the period. |

| 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 current gains. |
| No assurance can be
given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved. |
| Performance |
| For the 12 months ended October 31, 2010,
the Trust returned 28.08% based on market price and 13.04% based on NAV. For
the same period, the closed-end Lipper Sector Equity Funds category posted an
average return of 28.58% based on market price and 28.74% based on NAV. All
returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust moved from a discount to
NAV to a premium 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. The Trust’s investments in
new energy detracted from performance during the period. Wind power companies
were the poorest performers due to a loss of momentum in the progression of
supportive legislation. Conversely, the Trust derived positive performance
from its agriculture investments. Fertilizer companies were the strongest
performers as they benefited from improved farming margins due to a rally in
grain prices in the latter part of the period. The Trust’s holdings in grain
and crop producers also benefited from the strength in grain prices. In
addition, earnings generated through the Trust’s option writing strategy
enhanced performance for the period. |

ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2010 7

Trust Summary as of October 31, 2010 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 current gains. |
| No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment
objective will be achieved. |
| Performance |
| For the 12 months
ended October 31, 2010, the Trust returned 21.95% based on market price and
15.89% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Sector Equity
Funds category returned 28.58% based on market price and 28.74% based on NAV.
All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV,
which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance
based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates
to performance based on NAV. The Trust’s investments in the oil & gas
drilling sub-industry detracted from performance for the period. Holdings of
Transocean Ltd., Noble Corp. and Diamond Offshore Drilling, Inc. were notable
weak performers in this group. Conversely, the Trust’s investments in the oil
& gas storage & transportation sub-industry contributed positively to
returns, as did holdings within coal & consumable fuels, oil & gas
exploration & production and oil & gas equipment & services. In
addition, earnings generated through the Trust’s option writing strategy
enhanced performance for the period. |

Trust Summary as of October 31, 2010 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 current gains. 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. |
| Performance |
| For the 12 months
ended October 31, 2010, the Trust returned 17.58% based on market price and
13.76% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark MSCI All Country
World Index posted a return of 14.10%. All returns reflect reinvestment of
dividends. The Trust moved from a discount to NAV to a premium 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. Stock selection within consumer staples, information technology
(IT) and telecommunication services negatively impacted relative performance,
as did an underweight position in telecommunication services. Conversely,
positioning across materials, energy and consumer discretionary aided
returns. Approximately half of the portfolio was overwritten during the
period. In addition, earnings generated through the Trust’s option writing
strategy enhanced performance for the period. |

Trust Summary as of October 31, 2010 BlackRock Health Sciences Trust

| Trust Overview |
| --- |
| BlackRock
Health Sciences Trust’s (BME) (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 of companies engaged in the health sciences and
related industries and equity derivatives with exposure to the health
sciences industry. The Trust utilizes an option writing (selling) strategy to
enhance current gains. |
| No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment
objective will be achieved. |
| Performance |
| For the 12 months
ended October 31, 2010, the Trust returned 27.33% based on market price and
13.69% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark Russell 3000
Healthcare Index returned 14.69%. All returns reflect reinvestment of
dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period,
accounts for the difference between performance based on price and
performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance
based on NAV. The Trust’s underweight relative to the benchmark and stock
selection in pharmaceuticals detracted from performance for the period, as
did an overweight in the health care providers & services industry.
Holding cash on reserve to cover written put exposures detracted modestly
from the Trust’s performance as markets generally advanced over the period.
Despite underperforming the benchmark during the period, overall stock
selection did contribute positively to relative performance. Positioning
within the biotechnology, life sciences tools & services, health care
services, health care equipment and health care supplies sub-industries all
helped contribute to this outcome. Approximately 35% of the portfolio was
overwritten during the period. In addition, earnings generated through the
Trust’s option writing strategy enhanced performance for the period. |

| Trust Overview |

| BlackRock
International Growth and Income Trust’s (BGY) (the “Trust”) primary investment objective is to
provide current income and current gains, with a secondary objective of
long-term capital appreciation. The Trust seeks to achieve its investment
objectives by investing primarily in equity securities issued by companies of
any market capitalization located in countries throughout the world and
utilizing an option writing (selling) strategy to enhance current gains. The
Trust invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in
equity securities issued by non-U.S. companies of any market capitalization
located in countries throughout the world. 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. |
| Performance |
| For the 12 months
ended October 31, 2010, the Trust returned 12.49% based on market price and
12.06% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark MSCI All Country
World Index ex-US returned 12.62%. All returns reflect reinvestment of
dividends. The Trust began the period with neither a discount nor a premium
to NAV, and ended the period with 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. Stock selection
in financials detracted from relative performance as did the Trust’s
positions in consumer staples and materials. The Trust’s cash balance also
hindered returns as markets advanced during the period. On an absolute basis,
positive performance was led by holdings in the materials, industrials and
consumer discretionary sectors, which performed well during the period.
Relative to the benchmark, the Trust’s underweight position in financials and
overweights and stock selection within industrials and consumer discretionary
contributed positively to performance. Approximately 60% of the portfolio was
overwritten during the period. The option writing strategy had an overall
positive impact on performance due to earnings generated over the period. In
addition, earnings generated through the Trust’s option writing strategy
enhanced performance for the period. |

| 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 current gains. |
| No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment
objectives will be achieved. |
| Performance |
| For the 12 months
ended October 31, 2010, the Trust returned 24.67% based on market price and
14.08% based on NAV. For the same period, the benchmark MSCI World Value
Index returned 9.62%. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s
discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the
difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV.
The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV. The Trust’s
underweight allocation to financials combined with strong stock selection
within the sector drove the Trust’s outperformance relative to the benchmark.
Stock selection in the industrials and consumer staples sectors made a
significant impact, while selection within materials and utilities was also
beneficial. Detracting from performance was stock selection within the
consumer discretionary sector. The Trust’s cash position hindered relative
performance as markets appreciated over the period. An underweight allocation
to telecommunication services hurt relative performance, as did stock
selection within the energy sector. In addition, earnings generated through
the Trust’s option writing strategy enhanced performance for the period. |

D erivative Financial Instruments

The Trusts may invest in various derivative 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 and/or foreign currency exchange rate risks. Such derivative 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 successfully use a derivative instrument depends on the investment advisor’s ability to accurately predict pertinent market movements, which cannot be assured. The use of derivative 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 an investment that it might otherwise sell. The Trusts’ investments in these instruments are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

• For Trust compliance purposes, the Trust’s industry
classifications refer to any one or more of the industry sub-classifications
used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or ratings group
indexes, and/or defined by Trust management. This definition 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 derivatives, which are 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 derivatives)
The inputs or methodologies 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 other significant accounting policies, please
refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

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) |

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 derivatives) |

| • | Fair Value Measurements—Various inputs are used in
determining the fair value of investments and derivatives, which are 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 derivatives) |
| | The inputs or methodologies 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 other significant accounting policies, please
refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements. | |

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies:

BlackRock Dividend Achievers TM Trust (“BDV”), BlackRock Enhanced Dividend Achievers TM Trust (“BDJ”), BlackRock Strategic Dividend Achievers TM 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”) 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 and BCF, 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 and BCF are registered as non-diversified, closed-end management investment companies under the 1940 Act. 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 disclosures 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.

BOE Reorganization: The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) and the shareholders of each of BlackRock Global Equity Income Trust (“BFD”), BlackRock World Investment Trust (“BWC”) (the “Target Trusts”) and BOE approved the reorganization of each Target Trust into BOE (the “Reorganizations”). The Reorganizations were tax-free events and were effective as of the opening for business of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on July 27, 2009.

Target Trusts Acquiring Trust
BFD BOE
BWC BOE

Under the agreement and plan of reorganization between each Target Trust and BOE, the shares of each Target Trust (“Target Trust Shares”) were exchanged for BOE shares. The conversion ratios for Target Trust Shares were as follows:

BFD/BOE 0.55125638
BWC/BOE 0.59681881

The net assets of BOE before and after the Reorganizations and BOE shares issued and Target Trust Shares redeemed in connection with the Reorganizations were as follows:

| Acquiring Trust — BOE | Net
Assets After the Reorganizations — $ 1,256,641,195 | Net
Assets Prior to the Reorganizations — $ 231,537,574 | 55,935,668 | 97,158,060 |

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

Valuation: The Trusts fair value their financial instruments at market value using independent dealers or pricing services under policies approved by the Board. Equity investments traded on a recognized securities exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market System 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 their pro rata ownership in the net assets of the underlying 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 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the 1940 Act. The Trusts may withdraw up to 25% of its investment daily, although the manager of the Money Market Series, in its sole discretion, may permit an investor to withdraw more than 25% on any one day.

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 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 the 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 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 the sub-advisor seeks to determine the price that each Trust might reasonably expect to receive from the cur-

80 ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2010

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

rent 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 each 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 Trusts use a pricing service to assist with the valuation of certain foreign exchange-traded equity securities and foreign exchange-traded and OTC options (the “Systematic Fair Value Price”). Using current market factors, the Systematic Fair Value Price is designed to value such foreign securities and foreign options at fair value as of the close of business on the NYSE, which follows the close of the local markets.

Foreign Currency 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, each 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 foreign currency related transactions as components of 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 SEC require that a Trust either delivers collateral or segregates assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., written options 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 other 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 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 has determined 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 quarterly 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 financial institutions that provide cash 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 Trusts 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 are entitled to dividend and interest payments on the securities loaned. 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.

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 their taxable income to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provisions are 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 the year ended October 31, 2010 and the preceding three taxable years of the respective Trust, if applicable. The statute of limitations on the Trusts’ state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction. There are no 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”) (formerly Mergent) to use the Dividend Achievers TM universe of common stocks. If Indxis revokes a 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

The products are not sponsored, endorsed, managed, 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.

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 advisability of investing in the 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, non-interested 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 certain other 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 each Trust’s 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.

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 or foreign currency exchange rate risk. These contracts may be transacted 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 financial futures contracts and options is deemed to be minimal due to the protection against defaults provided by the exchange on which these contracts trade.

The Trusts may mitigate counterparty risk by procuring collateral and through netting provisions included within an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“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 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 currency backing some of the investments held by a Trust. 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 cur-

82 ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2010

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

rency 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, 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 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 price at any time or at a specified time during the option period. When a Trust purchases (writes) an option, an amount equal to the premium paid (received) by a 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 a Trust enters into a closing transaction), a 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 a Trust writes a call option, such option is “covered,” meaning that a Trust holds the underlying instrument subject to being called by the option counterparty. When a 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 option written could result in a Trust purchasing or selling a security at a price different from the current market value.

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (“PNC”), Bank of America Corporation (“BAC”) and Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”) are the largest stockholders of BlackRock, Inc. (“BlackRock”). Due to the ownership structure, PNC is an affiliate of the Trusts for 1940 Act purposes, but BAC and Barclays are not.

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 the Trusts. For such services, the Trusts pay the Manager a monthly fee at the following annual rates of the average weekly value of each Trust’s net assets: 0.65% for BDV, 1.00% for BDJ, 0.75% for BDT, 1.20% for BQR, 1.20% for BGR, 1.00% for BOE, 1.00% for BME, 1.00% for BGY, 1.20% for BCF and 0.75% for BQY. 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 Manager entered into separate sub-advisory agreements with BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. for BDV, BDJ, BDT and BQY, State Street Research & Management Company for BGR, BlackRock Investment Management, LLC (“BIM”) and BlackRock Capital Management, Inc. for BGY and BCF, and BlackRock International Limited for BQR and BCF, each an affiliate of the Manager. The Manager pays each sub-advisor for services they provide, a monthly fee that is a percentage of the investment advisory fee paid by each Trust to the Manager.

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. The market value of securities on loan and the value of the related collateral are shown in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as securities loaned and collateral on securities loaned at value, respectively. The cash collateral invested by BIM is disclosed in the Schedules of Investments. The share of income earned by the Trusts on such investments is shown as securities lending — affiliated in the Statements of Operations. For the year ended October 31, 2010, BIM received $17,061 in securities lending agent fees related to securities lending activities for the Trusts.

Certain officers and/or trustees of the Trusts are officers and/or trustees of BlackRock, Inc. or its affiliates. The Trusts reimburse the Manager for compensation paid to the Trusts’ Chief Compliance Officer.

  • The differences between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized gains were attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the tax deferral of losses on straddles, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains / losses on certain foreign currency contracts, the timing and recognition of partnership income, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains on investments in passive foreign investment companies, the deferral of compensation to trustees and the accounting for Real Estate Investment Trusts.

As of October 31, 2010, the Funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains through the indicated expiration dates:

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded)

6. Concentration, Market and Credit Risk:

BOE, BGY 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 (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 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 default. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Trusts to credit and counterparty risks, consist principally of investments and cash due from counterparties. The extent of the Trusts’ exposure to credit and counterparty risks with respect to these financial assets is generally approximated by their value recorded in the Trusts’ Statement 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, BGY, BQY
Utilities BDT, BQR
Materials BQR, BCF
Industrials BQR
Energy BGR, BCF
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 October 31, 2010, the Trusts listed below had the following industry classifications:

Industry BOE BGY BQY
Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels 10 % 9 % 11 %
Commercial Banks 9 12 13
Chemicals 4 5 3
Pharmaceuticals 5 3 8
Metals & Mining 3 7 2
Diversified Telecommunication 4 4 5
Other* 65 60 58
  • All other industries held were each less than 5% of long-term investments.

7. Capital Share Transactions:

There are an unlimited number of $0.001 par value common shares of beneficial interest authorized for each Trust. At October 31, 2010, the shares owned by an affiliate of the Manager of the Trusts were as follows:

Common Shares Owned
BDV 8,028

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the Trusts, including the schedules of investments, as of October 31, 2010, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trusts’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Trusts are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trusts’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2010, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Trusts as of October 31, 2010, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

D isclosure of Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements

The Board of Trustees (each, a “Board,” and, collectively, the “Boards,” and the members of which are referred to as “Board Members”) of each of BlackRock Dividend Achievers TM Trust (“BDV”), BlackRock EcoSolutions Investment Trust (“BQR”), BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust (“BGR”), BlackRock Enhanced Dividend Achievers TM Trust (“BDJ”), 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 S&P Quality Rankings Global Equity Managed Trust (“BQY,”) and BlackRock Strategic Dividend Achievers TM Trust (“BDT” and together with BDV, BQR, BGR, BDJ, BOE, BME, BGY, BCF and BQY, each a “Fund,” and, collectively, the “Funds”) met on April 8, 2010 and May 13-14, 2010 to consider the approval of each Fund’s investment advisory agreement (collectively, the “Advisory Agreements”) with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), each Fund’s investment advisor. The Boards of BDV, BDJ, BDT, BQR, BGR, BGY, BCF and BQY also considered the approval of the sub-advisory agreement (collectively, the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) between the Manager and one of the following sub-advisors, as the case may be: BlackRock Financial Management, Inc.; State Street Research & Management Company; BlackRock Investment Management, LLC; BlackRock International Limited; and BlackRock Capital Management, Inc. (each, a “Sub-Advisor”), with respect to their respective Funds. The Manager and the Sub-Advisor are referred to herein as “BlackRock.” The Advisory Agreements and the Sub-Advisory Agreements are referred to herein as the “Agreements.”

Activities and Composition of the Board

The Board of each Fund consists of ten individuals, eight of whom are not “interested persons” of the Funds 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 each 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 each Board is an Independent Board Member. Each Board has established five standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Governance and Nominating Committee, a Compliance Committee, a Performance Oversight Committee and an Executive Committee, each of which is 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. Each 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 Boards are required to consider the continuation of the Agreements on an annual basis. In connection with this process, the Boards assessed, among other things, the nature, scope and quality of the services provided to the Funds 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.

From time to time throughout the year, the Boards, acting directly and through their committees, considered at each of their meetings factors that are relevant to their annual consideration of the renewal of the Agreements, including the services and support provided by BlackRock to the Funds and their shareholders. Among the matters the Boards considered were: (a) investment performance for one-, three- and five-year periods, as applicable, against peer funds, and applicable benchmarks, if any, as well as senior management’s and portfolio managers’ analysis of the reasons for any over performance or underperformance against a Fund’s peers and/or benchmark, as applicable; (b) fees, including advisory and other amounts paid to BlackRock and its affiliates by each Fund for services such as call center and fund accounting; (c) each Fund’s operating expenses; (d) the resources devoted to and compliance reports relating to each Fund’s investment objective, policies and restrictions; (e) each Fund’s compliance with its Code of Ethics and compliance policies and procedures; (f) the nature, cost and character of non-investment management services provided by BlackRock and its affiliates; (g) BlackRock’s and other service providers’ internal controls; (h) BlackRock’s implementation of the proxy voting policies approved by the Boards; (i) the use of brokerage commissions and execution quality of portfolio transactions; (j) BlackRock’s implementation of each Fund’s valuation and liquidity procedures; (k) an analysis of contractual and actual management fees for products with similar investment objectives across the open-end fund, closed-end fund and institutional account product channels, as applicable; and (l) periodic updates on BlackRock’s business.

Board Considerations in Approving the Agreements

The Approval Process: Prior to the April 8, 2010 meeting, the Boards requested and each received materials specifically relating to the Agreements. The Boards are engaged in a process with BlackRock to periodically review the nature and scope of the information provided to better assist their deliberations. The materials provided in connection with the April meeting included (a) information independently compiled and prepared by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”) on Fund fees and expenses, and the investment performance of each Fund as compared with a peer group of funds as determined by Lipper (collectively, “Peers”); (b) information on the profitability of the Agreements to BlackRock and a discussion of fall-out benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates and significant shareholders; (c) a general analysis provided by BlackRock concerning investment advisory fees charged to other clients, such as institutional clients and open-end funds, under similar investment mandates; (d) the impact of economies of scale; (e) a summary of aggregate amounts paid by each Fund to BlackRock and (f) if applicable, a comparison of management fees to similar BlackRock closed-end funds, as classified by Lipper.

At an in-person meeting held on April 8, 2010, the Boards reviewed materials relating to their consideration of the Agreements. As a result of the discussions that occurred during the April 8, 2010 meeting, the Boards presented BlackRock with questions and requests for additional information and BlackRock responded to these requests with additional written information in advance of the May 13-14, 2010 Board meeting.

At an in-person meeting held on May 13-14, 2010, each Board, including its Independent Board Members, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Manager and its respective Fund for a one-year term ending June 30, 2011. The Board of each of BDV, BDJ, BDT, BQR, BGR, BGY, BCF and BQY, including its Independent Board Members, also unanimously approved the continuation of the Sub-Advisory Agreement

ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2010 89

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

between the Manager and the Sub-Advisor, with respect to its respective Fund, for a one-year term ending June 30, 2011. In approving the continuation of the Agreements, the Boards considered: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by BlackRock; (b) the investment performance of each Fund and BlackRock; (c) the advisory fee and the cost of the services and profits to be realized by BlackRock and its affiliates from their relationship with each Fund; (d) economies of scale; and (e) other factors deemed relevant by the Board Members.

The Boards also considered other matters they deemed important to the approval process, such as services related to the valuation and pricing of each Fund’s portfolio holdings, direct and indirect benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates and significant shareholders from their relationship with each Fund and advice from independent legal counsel with respect to the review process and materials submitted for the Boards’ review. The Boards noted the willingness of BlackRock personnel to engage in open, candid discussions with the Boards. The Boards 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 Boards, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed the nature, extent and quality of services provided by BlackRock, including the investment advisory services and the resulting performance of each Fund. Throughout the year, the Boards compared each Fund’s performance to the performance of a comparable group of closed-end funds, and the performance of a relevant benchmark, if any. The Boards met with BlackRock’s senior management personnel responsible for investment operations, including the senior investment officers. The Boards also reviewed the materials provided by each Fund’s portfolio management team discussing each Fund’s performance and each Fund’s investment objective, strategies and outlook.

The Boards considered, among other factors, the number, education and experience of BlackRock’s investment personnel generally and each 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 Boards also reviewed a general description of BlackRock’s compensation structure with respect to each Fund’s portfolio management team and BlackRock’s ability to attract and retain high-quality talent.

In addition to advisory services, the Boards considered the quality of the administrative and non-investment advisory services provided to each Fund. BlackRock and its affiliates and significant shareholders provide each Fund with certain administrative and other services (in addition to any such services provided to each Fund by third parties) and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the operations of each Fund. In addition to investment advisory services, BlackRock and its affiliates provide each 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 each 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 each Fund, such as tax reporting, fulfilling regulatory filing requirements, and call center services. The Boards 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 the Funds and BlackRock

The Boards, including the Independent Board Members, also reviewed and considered the performance history of each Fund. In preparation for the April 8, 2010 meeting, the Boards were provided with reports, independently prepared by Lipper, which included a comprehensive analysis of each Fund’s performance. The Boards also reviewed a narrative and statistical analysis of the Lipper data that was prepared by BlackRock, which analyzed various factors that affect Lipper’s rankings. In connection with their reviews, the Boards received and reviewed information regarding the investment performance of each Fund as compared to a representative group of similar funds as determined by Lipper and to all funds in each Fund’s applicable Lipper category. The Boards were provided with a description of the methodology used by Lipper to select peer funds. The Boards regularly review the performance of each Fund throughout the year.

The Board of BGR noted that, in general, BGR performed better than its Peers in that BGR’s performance was at or above the median of its Lipper Performance Universe in each of the one-, three- and five-year periods reported.

The Boards of BOE, BME and BCF noted that, in general, BOE, BME and BCF performed better than their respective Peers in that each Fund’s performance was at or above the median of its Lipper Performance Universe in each of the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods reported.

The Boards of BQR and BGY noted that, in general, BQR and BGY performed better than their respective Peers in that each Fund’s performance was at or above the median of its Lipper Performance Universe in either the one-year or since-inception periods reported.

The Board of BQY noted that, in general, BQY performed better than its Peers in that BQY’s performance was at or above the median of its Lipper Performance Universe in two of the one-, three- and five-year periods reported. Additionally, working with the Board of BQY, BlackRock has restructured the investment process of BQY from an active quantitative, index-based investment approach to a fundamentally-based investment approach, thus allowing for greater portfolio management flexibility in picking individual equities and taking targeted sector and industry exposures.

The Boards of BDV and BDT noted that BDV and BDT performed below the median of their Lipper Peer Universe in each of the one-, three- and five-year periods reported. The Boards of BDV and BDT and BlackRock reviewed the reasons for each Fund’s underperformance during these periods compared with its Peers. The Boards of BDV and BDT were informed that, among other things, BDV and BDT are U.S. portfolios while many of their respective Peers appear to have invested globally. The non-U.S. markets outperformed the U.S. markets over the past five-years helping improve performance for those portfolios holding non-U.S. securities.

90 ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2010

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

The Board of BDJ noted that BDJ performed below the median of its Lipper Peer Universe in each of the one-year, three-year and since-inception periods reported. The Board of BDJ and BlackRock reviewed the reasons for BDJ’s underperformance during these periods compared with its Peers. The Board of BDJ was informed that, among other things, BDJ is a U.S. portfolio while many of its Peers appear to have invested globally, including in emerging markets. These non-U.S. markets outperformed the U.S. markets over the past three-years helping improve performance for those portfolios holding non-U.S. securities.

The Boards of BDV, BDJ and BDT and BlackRock discussed BlackRock’s strategy for improving each Fund’s performance and BlackRock’s commitment to providing the resources necessary to assist each Fund’s portfolio managers and to improve each Fund’s performance. Additionally, working with the Boards of BDV, BDJ and BDT, BlackRock has restructured the investment process of BDV, BDJ and BDT from an active quantitative, index-based investment approach to a fundamentally-based investment approach, thus allowing for greater portfolio management flexibility in picking individual equities and taking targeted sector and industry exposures.

C. Consideration of the Advisory Fees and the Cost of the Services and Profits to be Realized by BlackRock and its Affiliates from their Relationship with the Funds

The Boards, including the Independent Board Members, reviewed each Fund’s contractual advisory fee rate compared with the other funds in its Lipper category. The Boards also compared each Fund’s total expenses, as well as actual management fees, to those of other funds in its Lipper category. The Boards considered the services provided and the fees charged by BlackRock to other types of clients with similar investment mandates, including separately managed institutional accounts.

The Boards received and reviewed statements relating to BlackRock’s financial condition and profitability with respect to the services it provided each Fund. The Boards were also provided with a profitability analysis that detailed the revenues earned and the expenses incurred by BlackRock for services provided to each Fund. The Boards reviewed BlackRock’s profitability with respect to each Fund and other funds the Boards currently oversee for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to available aggregate profitability data provided for the year ended December 31, 2008. The Boards reviewed BlackRock’s profitability with respect to other fund complexes managed by the Manager and/or its affiliates. The Boards reviewed BlackRock’s assumptions and methodology of allocating expenses in the profitability analysis, noting the inherent limitations in allocating costs among various advisory products. The Boards recognized that profitability may be affected by numerous factors including, among other things, fee waivers and expense reimbursements by the Manager, the types of funds managed, expense allocations and business mix, and the difficulty of comparing profitability as a result of those factors.

The Boards noted that, in general, individual fund or product line profitability of other advisors is not publicly available. Nevertheless, to the extent such information was available, the Boards considered BlackRock’s overall operating margin, in general, compared to the operating margin for leading investment management firms whose operations include advising closed-end funds, among other product types. That data indicates that operating margins for BlackRock with respect to its registered funds are generally consistent with margins earned by similarly situated publicly traded competitors. In addition, the Boards considered, among other things, certain third party data comparing BlackRock’s operating margin with that of other publicly-traded asset management firms. That third party data indicates that larger asset bases do not, in themselves, translate to higher profit margins.

In addition, the Boards considered the cost of the services provided to each Fund by BlackRock, and BlackRock’s and its affiliates’ profits relating to the management and distribution of each Fund and the other funds advised by BlackRock and its affiliates. As part of their analysis, the Boards reviewed BlackRock’s methodology in allocating its costs to the management of each Fund. The Boards 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 Boards.

The Boards of BDV, BDJ, BOE, BME, BGY, BQY and BDT noted that each of their respective Funds’ contractual management fee rate was lower than or equal to the median contractual management fee rate paid by the Fund’s Peers, in each case, before taking into account any expense reimbursements or fee waivers.

The Boards of BQR and BCF noted that each of their respective Funds’ contractual management fee rate was above the median contractual management fee rate paid by the Fund’s Peers, in each case, before taking into account any expense reimbursements or fee waivers. The Boards of BQR and BCF also noted, however, that each Fund’s contractual management fee rate was reasonable relative to the median contractual management fee rate paid by the Fund’s peers.

The Board of BGR noted that BGR’s contractual management fee rate was above the median contractual management fee rate paid by BGR’s Peers, in each case, before taking into account any expense reimbursements or fee waivers. The Board also noted, however, that BGR’s actual management fee rate, after giving effect to any expense reimbursements or fee waivers by BlackRock, was lower than or equal to the median actual management fee rate paid by BGR’s Peers, after giving effect to any expense reimbursements or fee waivers.

D. Economies of Scale

The Boards, including the Independent Board Members, considered the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as the assets of each Fund increase. The Boards also considered the extent to which each Fund benefits from such economies and whether there should be changes in the advisory fee rate or structure in order to enable each 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 each Fund.

The Boards 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 and each fund is managed independently consistent with its own investment objectives. The Boards noted that only one closed-end fund in the Fund Complex has breakpoints in its fee structure. Information provided by Lipper also revealed that only one closed-end fund complex with total closed-end fund nets assets exceeding $10 billion, as of December 31, 2009, used a complex level breakpoint structure.

E. Other Factors Deemed Relevant by the Board Members

The Boards, including the Independent Board Members, also took into account other ancillary or “fall-out” benefits that BlackRock or its affiliates

ANNUAL REPORT OCTOBER 31, 2010 91

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

and significant shareholders may derive from their respective relationships with the Funds, 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 Funds, including for administrative and distribution services. The Boards also considered BlackRock’s overall operations and its efforts to expand the scale of, and improve the quality of, its operations. The Boards also noted that BlackRock may use and benefit from third party research obtained by soft dollars generated by certain mutual fund transactions to assist in managing all or a number of its other client accounts. The Boards further noted that BlackRock completed the acquisition of a complex of exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) on December 1, 2009, and that BlackRock’s funds may invest in such ETFs without any offset against the management fees payable by the funds to BlackRock.

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

The Boards noted the competitive nature of the closed-end fund marketplace, and that shareholders are able to sell their respective Fund 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

Each Board, including its Independent Board Members, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Manager and its respective Fund for a one-year term ending June 30, 2011. The Board of each of BDV, BDJ, BDT, BQR, BGR, BGY, BCF and BQY, including its Independent Board Members, also unanimously approved the continuation of the Sub-Advisory Agreement between the Manager and the Sub-Advisor, with respect to its respective Fund, for a one-year term ending June 30, 2011. As part of its approval, each Board considered the discussions of BlackRock’s fee structure, as it applies to its respective Fund, being conducted by the ad hoc Joint Product Pricing Committee. Based upon its evaluation of all of the aforementioned factors in their totality, each Board, including its Independent Board Members, was satisfied that the terms of the Agreements were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of its respective Fund and its shareholders. In arriving at a decision to approve the Agreements, none of the Boards identified any single factor or group of factors as all-important or controlling, but considered all factors together, and different Board Members may have attributed different weights to the various factors considered. The Independent Board Members were also assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel in making this determination. The contractual fee arrangements for each Fund reflect the results of several years of review by the Board Members and predecessor Board Members, and discussions between such Board Members (and predecessor Board Members) and BlackRock. Certain aspects of the arrangements may be the subject of more attention in some years than in others, and the Board Members’ conclusions may be based in part on their consideration of these arrangements in prior years.

A utomatic Dividend Reinvestment Plans

Pursuant to each Trust’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Reinvestment Plan”), common shareholders are automatically enrolled, to have all distributions of dividends and capital gains reinvested by BNY Mellon Shareowner Services (the “Plan Agent”) in the respective Trust’s shares pursuant to the Reinvestment Plan. Shareholders who do not participate in the Reinvestment Plan will receive all distributions in cash paid by check and mailed directly to the shareholders of record (or if the shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to the nominee) by the Plan Agent, which serves as agent for the shareholders in administering the plan.

After a Trust declares a dividend or determines to make a capital gain distribution, the Plan Agent will acquire shares for the participants’ account, depending upon the following circumstances, either (i) through receipt of unissued but authorized shares from the Trust (“newly issued shares”) or (ii) by purchase of outstanding shares on the open market, on a Trust’s primary exchange or elsewhere (“open market purchases”). If, on the dividend payment date, the net asset value per share (“NAV”) is equal to or less than the market price per share plus estimated brokerage commissions (such condition being referred to herein as “market premium”), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in newly issued shares on behalf of the participants. The number of newly issued shares to be credited to each participant’s account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend by the NAV on the date the shares are issued. However, if the NAV is less than 95% of the market price on the payment date, the dollar amount of the dividend will be divided by 95% of the market price on the payment date. If, on the dividend payment date, the NAV is greater than the market value per share plus estimated brokerage commissions (such condition being referred to herein as “market discount”), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in shares acquired on behalf of the participants in open-market purchases. If the Plan Agent is unable to invest the full dividend amount in open market purchases, or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Plan Agent will invest any un-invested portion in newly issued shares.

Participation in the Reinvestment Plan is completely voluntary and may be terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by notice if received and processed by the plan administrator prior to the dividend record date; otherwise such termination or resumption will be effective with respect to any subsequently declared dividend or other distribution.

The Plan Agent’s fees for the handling of the reinvestment of dividends and distributions will be paid by each Trust. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent’s open market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and distributions. The automatic reinvestment of dividends and distributions will not relieve participants of any federal income tax that may be payable on such dividends or distributions.

Each Trust reserves the right to amend or terminate the Reinvestment Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants in the Reinvestment Plan; however, each Trust reserves the right to amend the Reinvestment Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants. Participants that request a sale of shares through the Plan Agent are subject to a $0.02 per share sold brokerage commission. All correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Agent at BNY Mellon Shareowner Services, P.O. Box 358035, Pittsburgh, PA 15252-8035; or by calling 1-866-216-0242.

Each Trust, except BGR, BME and BQY, 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.

BDV’s, BDJ’s, BDT’s and BQY’s Boards each approved a change to the investment strategy employed by each Trust. The Trusts have previously utilized a quantitative, index-based investment style in selecting equity investments. Pursuant to the new investment strategy, effective February 16, 2010, the Trusts now utilize an investment style based on a fundamental analysis of individual securities that is not index-based. As a result, under the Trusts’ new investment strategy, the Trusts are particularly dependent on the analytical abilities of BlackRock. There have been no changes to the Trusts’ investment objectives, guidelines and/or policies apart from the method used to implement their investment strategies. Each Trust will continue to emphasize dividend-paying and/or quality equities, as described in its prospectus, and will continue to utilize an option-writing strategy to enhance current gains.

Other than the revisions to BDV’s, BDJ’s, BDT’s and BQY’s investment strategy discussed above, during the period there were no material changes in the Trusts’ investment objectives or policies or to the Trusts’ charters or bylaws that were not approved by the shareholders or in the principal risk factors associated with investment in the Trusts. Other than as disclosed on page 97, there have been no changes in the persons who are primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Trusts’ portfolios.

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 other-

P. Robards qualify as financial experts pursuant to Item 3(c)(4) of Form
N-CSR. |
| | Prof. Kester has a thorough understanding of generally accepted
accounting principles, financial statements and internal control over
financial reporting as well as audit committee functions. Prof. Kester has
been involved in providing valuation and other financial consulting services
to corporate clients since 1978. Prof. Kester’s financial consulting services
present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are
generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can
reasonably be expected to be raised by the registrant’s financial statements. |
| | Ms. Robards has a thorough understanding of generally accepted
accounting principles, financial statements and internal control over
financial reporting as well as audit committee functions. Ms. Robards has
been President of Robards & Company, a financial advisory firm, since
1987. Ms. Robards was formerly an investment banker for more than 10 years
where she was responsible for evaluating and assessing the performance of
companies based on their financial results. Ms. Robards has over 30 years of
experience analyzing financial statements. She also is a member of the audit
committee of one publicly held company and a non-profit organization. |
| | Under applicable securities laws, a person determined to be an audit
committee financial expert will not be deemed an “expert” for any purpose,
including without limitation for the purposes of Section 11 of the Securities
Act of 1933, as a result of being designated or identified as an audit
committee financial expert. The designation or identification as an audit
committee financial expert does not impose on such person any duties,
obligations, or liabilities greater than the duties, obligations, and
liabilities imposed on such person as a member of the audit committee and
board of directors in the absence of such designation or identification. The
designation or identification as an audit committee financial expert does not
affect the duties, obligations, or liability of any other member of the audit
committee or board of directors. |

| (e)(1) Audit
Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures: |
| --- |
| The
registrant’s audit committee (the “Committee”) has adopted policies and
procedures with regard to the pre-approval of services. Audit, audit-related
and tax compliance services provided to the registrant on an annual basis
require specific pre-approval by the Committee. The Committee also must
approve other non-audit services provided to the registrant and those
non-audit services provided to the registrant’s affiliated service providers
that relate directly to the operations and the financial reporting of the
registrant. Certain of these non-audit services that the Committee believes
are a) consistent with the SEC’s auditor independence rules and b) routine
and recurring services that will not impair the independence of the
independent accountants may be approved by the Committee without
consideration on a specific case-by-case basis (“general pre-approval”). The
term of any general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of the
pre-approval, unless the Committee provides for a different period. Tax or
other non-audit services provided to the registrant which have a direct
impact on the operation or financial reporting of the registrant will only be
deemed pre-approved provided that any individual project does not exceed
$10,000 attributable to the registrant or $50,000 per project. For this
purpose, multiple projects will be aggregated to determine if they exceed the
previously mentioned cost levels. |
| Any
proposed services exceeding the pre-approved cost levels will require
specific pre-approval by the Committee, as will any other services not
subject to general pre-approval (e.g., unanticipated but permissible
services). The Committee is informed of each service approved subject to
general pre-approval at the next regularly scheduled in-person board meeting.
At this meeting, an analysis of such services is presented to the Committee
for ratification. The Committee may delegate to the Committee Chairman the
authority to approve the provision of and fees for any specific engagement of
permitted non-audit services, including services exceeding pre-approved cost
levels. |
| (e)(2) None
of the services described in each of Items 4(b) through (d) were approved by
the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of
Regulation S-X. |

| | (h) The
registrant’s audit committee has considered and determined that the provision
of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment
adviser (not including any non-affiliated sub-adviser whose role is primarily
portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by the
registrant’s investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by,
or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing
services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph
(c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the
principal accountant’s independence. |

| Item 7 – | Disclosure
of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment
Companies – The board of directors has delegated the voting of proxies for
the Fund securities to the Fund’s investment adviser (“Investment Adviser”)
pursuant to the Investment Adviser’s proxy voting guidelines. Under these
guidelines, the Investment Adviser will vote proxies related to Fund
securities in the best interests of the Fund and its stockholders. From time
to time, a vote may present a conflict between the interests of the Fund’s
stockholders, on the one hand, and those of the Investment Adviser, or any
affiliated person of the Fund or the Investment Adviser, on the other. In
such event, provided that the Investment Adviser’s Equity Investment Policy
Oversight Committee, or a sub-committee thereof (the “Oversight Committee”) is
aware of the real or potential conflict or material non-routine matter and if
the Oversight Committee does not reasonably believe it is able to follow its
general voting guidelines (or if the particular proxy matter is not addressed
in the guidelines) and vote impartially, the Oversight Committee may retain
an independent fiduciary to advise the Oversight Committee on how to vote or
to cast votes on behalf of the Investment Adviser’s clients. If the
Investment Adviser determines not to retain an independent fiduciary, or does
not desire to follow the advice of such independent fiduciary, the Oversight
Committee shall |

| | determine how to vote the proxy after consulting with the Investment
Adviser’s Portfolio Management Group and/or the Investment Adviser’s Legal
and Compliance Department and concluding that the vote cast is in its
client’s best interest notwithstanding the conflict. A copy of the Fund’s Proxy Voting Policy
and Procedures are attached as Exhibit 99.PROXYPOL. Information on how the Fund voted proxies
relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended
June 30 is available without charge, (i) at www.blackrock.com and (ii) on the
SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov . |

| (iv) Potential Material
Conflicts of Interest |
| --- |
| BlackRock,
Inc. (individually and together with its affiliates, “BlackRock”) has
built a professional working environment, firm-wide compliance culture and
compliance procedures and systems designed to protect against potential
incentives that may favor one account over another. BlackRock has adopted
policies and procedures that address the allocation of investment opportunities,
execution of portfolio transactions, personal trading by employees and other
potential conflicts of interest that are designed to ensure that all client
accounts are treated equitably over time. Nevertheless, BlackRock furnishes
investment management and advisory services to numerous clients in addition to
the Fund, and BlackRock may, consistent with applicable law, make investment
recommendations to other clients or accounts (including accounts which are hedge
funds or have performance or higher fees paid to BlackRock, or in which
portfolio managers have a personal interest in the receipt of such fees), which
may be the same as or different from those made to the Fund. In addition,
BlackRock, its affiliates and significant shareholders and any officer,
director, stockholder or employee may or may not have an interest in the
securities whose purchase and sale BlackRock recommends to the Fund. BlackRock,
or any of its affiliates or significant shareholders, or any officer, director,
stockholder, employee or any member of their families may take different actions
than those recommended to the Fund by BlackRock with respect to the same
securities. Moreover, BlackRock may refrain from rendering any advice or
services concerning securities of companies of which any of BlackRock’s (or
its affiliates’ or significant shareholders’) officers, directors or
employees are directors or officers, or companies as to which BlackRock or any
of its affiliates or significant shareholders or the officers, directors and
employees of any of them has any substantial economic interest or possesses
material non-public information. Each portfolio manager also may manage accounts
whose investment strategies may at times be opposed to the strategy utilized for
a fund. In this connection, it should be noted that Messrs. Callan and Carey
currently manage certain accounts that are subject to performance fees. In
addition, Mr. Callan assist in managing certain hedge funds and may be entitled
to receive a portion of any incentive fees earned on such funds and a portion of
such incentive fees may be voluntarily or involuntarily deferred. Additional
portfolio managers may in the future manage other such accounts or funds and may
be entitled to receive incentive fees. |
| As a
fiduciary, BlackRock owes a duty of loyalty to its clients and must treat
each client fairly. When BlackRock purchases or sells securities for more
than one account, the trades must be allocated in a manner consistent with
its fiduciary duties. BlackRock attempts to allocate investments in a fair
and equitable manner among client accounts, with no account receiving
preferential treatment. To this end, BlackRock has adopted a policy that is
intended to ensure that investment opportunities are allocated fairly and
equitably among client accounts over time. This policy also seeks to achieve
reasonable efficiency in client transactions and provide BlackRock with
sufficient flexibility to allocate investments in a manner that is consistent
with the particular investment discipline and client base. |
| (a)(3) As of
October 31, 2010: |
| Portfolio Manager Compensation Overview |
| BlackRock’s
financial arrangements with its portfolio managers, its competitive
compensation and its career path emphasis at all levels reflect the value
senior management places on key resources. Compensation may include a variety
of components and may vary from year to year based on a |

| number of factors.
The principal components of compensation include a base salary, a
performance and, for certain portfolio managers, revenue-based discretionary bonus, participation in various benefits
programs and one or more of the incentive compensation programs established
by BlackRock such as its Long-Term Retention and Incentive Plan. |
| --- |
| Base compensation. Generally, portfolio
managers receive base compensation based on their seniority and/or their
position with the firm. Senior portfolio managers who perform additional
management functions within the portfolio management group or within
BlackRock may receive additional compensation for serving in these other
capacities. |
| Discretionary Incentive Compensation for Messrs. Callan and Carey and Ms. Rosenbaum |
| Discretionary incentive compensation is based on a formulaic
compensation program. BlackRock’s formulaic portfolio manager compensation
program includes: pre-tax investment performance relative to appropriate
competitors or benchmarks over 1-, 3- and 5-year performance periods and a team
revenue component. If a portfolio manager’s tenure is less than five years,
performance periods will reflect time in position. In most cases, including for
the portfolio managers of the Fund, these benchmarks are the same as the
benchmark or benchmarks against which the performance of the Fund or other
accounts managed by the portfolio managers are measured. BlackRock’s Chief
Investment Officers determine the benchmarks against which the performance of
funds and other accounts managed by each portfolio manager is compared and the
period of time over which performance is evaluated. With respect to Messrs.
Callan and Carey and Ms. Rosenbaum, such benchmarks include a combination of
Lipper Global Multi-Cap Core, Global Multi-Cap Growth, Health/Biotechnology,
Global Health/Biotechnology, International Multi-Cap Core, International
Mutli-Cap Growth, Mid-Cap Core and Mid-Cap Growth Funds
classifications. |
| Portfolio managers who meet relative investment performance and financial management objectives during a specified performance time
period are eligible to receive an additional bonus which may or may not be a large part of their overall compensation. A smaller
element of portfolio manager discretionary compensation may include consideration of: financial results, expense control, profit
margins, strategic planning and implementation, quality of client service, market share, corporate reputation, capital allocation,
compliance and risk control, leadership, workforce diversity, supervision, technology and innovation. All factors are considered
collectively by BlackRock management. |
| Discretionary Incentive Compensation for Mr. McClements |
| Discretionary
incentive compensation is a function of several components: the performance of
BlackRock, Inc., the performance of the portfolio manager’s group within
BlackRock, the investment performance, including risk-adjusted returns, of the
firm’s assets under management or supervision by that portfolio manager
relative to predetermined benchmarks, and the individual’s seniority, role
within the portfolio management team, teamwork and contribution to the overall
performance of these portfolios and BlackRock. In most cases, including for the
portfolio managers of the Fund, these benchmarks are the same as the benchmark
or benchmarks against which the performance of the Fund or other accounts
managed by the portfolio managers are measured. BlackRock’s Chief Investment
Officers determine the benchmarks against which the performance of funds and
other accounts managed by each portfolio manager is compared and the period of
time over which performance is evaluated. With respect to Mr. McClements, such
benchmarks include a combination of market-based
indices (e.g., Mergent Dividend Achievers Index, The S&P/Citigroup |

| Global
Broad Market Index, Lipper Health/Biotechnology Funds Index, The Russell 3000
Healthcare Index, NYSE Arca Tech 100 Index, MSCI World Index) and yield
component. |
| --- |
| BlackRock’s
Chief Investment Officers make a subjective determination with respect to the
portfolio manager’s compensation based on the performance of the funds and
other accounts managed by each portfolio manager relative to the various
benchmarks noted above. Performance is measured on a pre-tax basis over
various time periods including 1, 3 and 5-year periods, as applicable. |
| Distribution of Discretionary Incentive
Compensation |
| Discretionary
incentive compensation is distributed to portfolio managers in a combination
of cash and BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units which vest ratably over a
number of years. The BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units, if properly
vested, will be settled in BlackRock, Inc. common stock. Typically, the cash
bonus, when combined with base salary, represents more than 60% of total compensation
for the portfolio managers. Paying a portion of annual bonuses in stock puts compensation
earned by a portfolio manager for a given year “at risk” based on BlackRock’s
ability to sustain and improve its performance over future periods. |
| Long-Term Retention and Incentive Plan
(“LTIP”) — From time to time long-term incentive
equity awards are granted to certain key employees to aid in retention, align
their interests with long-term shareholder interests and motivate performance.
Equity awards are generally granted in the form of BlackRock, Inc. restricted
stock units that, once vested, settle in BlackRock, Inc. common stock. Messrs.
Carey and McClements and Ms. Rosenbaum have each received awards
under the LTIP. |
| Deferred
Compensation Program — A portion of the compensation
paid to eligible BlackRock employees may be voluntarily deferred into an
account that tracks the performance of certain of the firm’s investment
products. Each participant in the deferred compensation program is permitted
to allocate his deferred amounts among the various investment options.
Messrs. Callan, Carey and McClements and Ms. Rosenbaum have each participated in the deferred compensation program. |
| Other compensation benefits. In addition to
base compensation and discretionary incentive compensation, portfolio
managers may be eligible to receive or participate in one or more of the
following: |
| Incentive
Savings Plans — BlackRock, Inc. has created a
variety of incentive savings plans in which BlackRock employees are eligible
to participate, including a 401(k) plan, the BlackRock Retirement Savings
Plan (RSP), and the BlackRock Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). The
employer contribution components of the RSP include a company match equal to
50% of the first 6% of eligible pay contributed to the plan capped at $4,000
per year, and a company retirement contribution equal to 3-5% of eligible
compensation. The RSP offers a range of investment options, including
registered investment companies managed by the firm. BlackRock contributions
follow the investment direction set by participants for their own
contributions or, absent employee investment direction, are invested into a
balanced portfolio. The ESPP allows for investment in BlackRock common stock
at a 5% discount on the fair market value of the stock on |

| the purchase date.
Annual participation in the ESPP is limited to the purchase of 1,000 shares
or a dollar value of $25,000. Each portfolio manager is eligible to
participate in these plans. |
