Dear Shareholder Over the past 12 months, we have seen a sluggish, stimulus-driven economic recovery at long last gain real traction, accelerate, and transition into a con- sumption-driven expansion. For the most part, 2010 was plagued with widely fluctuating economic data, but as the year drew to a close, it became clear that cyclical stimulus had beaten out structural problems as economic data releases generally became more positive and financial markets showed signs of continuing improvement. Although the sovereign debt crises and emerging market inflation that troubled the global economy in 2010 remain a challenge, overall investor sentiment considerably improved. Near the end of the period, geopolitical tensions across the Middle East North Africa (“MENA”) region along with rising oil prices introduced new cause for concern about the future of the global economy. As of this writing, economic news remains fairly positive although we face additional uncertainties related to the aftermath of the devastating earthquake in Japan, with particular focus on the damage to nuclear power plants. In the United States, strength from the corporate sector and increasing consumer spending have been key drivers of economic growth, while the housing and labor markets have been the heaviest burdens. While housing has yet to show any meaningful sign of improvement, labor statistics have delivered a mixed bag month after month, but became increasingly encouraging toward the end of the period when the unemployment rate fell to its lowest level since April 2009. Global equity markets experienced uneven growth and high volatility over the course of 2010, but ended the year strong. Following a strong start to 2011, stocks lost their momentum on the back of geopolitical events in the MENA region and a sharp rise in oil prices. Overall, equities posted strong returns for the 12-month period. US stocks outpaced most international markets and small cap stocks outperformed large caps as investors moved into higher-risk assets. Fixed income markets saw yields trend lower over most of 2010, until the fourth quarter brought an abrupt reversal in sentiment and risk tolerance that drove yields sharply upward (pushing bond prices down) through year end. Improving economic data continued to pressure fixed income yields in 2011; however, escalating geopolitical risks have acted as a counterweight, restoring relative stability to yield movements. Nevertheless, the yield curve remained steep and higher-risk sectors outperformed the fixed income market. The tax-exempt municipal market enjoyed a powerful rally during the period of low interest rates in 2010; however, when the yield trend reversed, the market was dealt an additional blow as it became evident that the Build America Bond program would expire at year end. In addition, negative headlines regarding fiscal challenges faced by state and local governments damaged investor confidence and further heightened volatility in the municipal market. Tax-exempt mutual funds experienced heavy outflows, resulting in wider quality spreads and further downward pressure on municipal bond prices. These headwinds began to abate as the period came to a close and municipals finally posted gains in February, following a five-month run of negative performance. 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.

Fund Summary as of February 28, 2011 BlackRock Defined Opportunity Credit Trust Investment Objective BlackRock Defined Opportunity Credit Trust’s (BHL) (the “Fund”) primary investment objective is high current income, with a secondary objective of long- term capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing substantially all of its assets in loan and debt instruments and loan-related and debt-related instruments (collectively "credit securities"). The Fund invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in any combination of the following credit securities: (i) senior secured floating rate and fixed rate loans; (ii) second lien or other subordinated or unsecured floating rate and fixed rate loans or debt; (iii) credit securities that are rated below investment grade quality; and (iv) investment grade corporate bonds. The Fund may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary How did the Fund perform? • For the six months ended February 28, 2011, the Fund returned 17.57% based on market price and 8.77% based on net asset value (“NAV”). For the same period, the Lipper Loan Participation Funds category posted an average return of 14.91% based on market price and 9.11% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Fund moved from a dis- count 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. What factors influenced performance? • The bank loan sector posted strong returns as risk assets rallied during the period. Lower-quality sectors and credits outperformed their higher-quality counterparts and the high yield sector outperformed bank loans. Because the Fund invests primarily in bank loans, and it held an average of 10% of its portfolio in corporate bonds during the period, the use of leverage had a positive impact on returns as these sectors advanced. However, the Fund maintains a lower level of leverage (at an average amount between 18% and 23%) than the average level maintained by the leveraged funds in its Lipper category, which detracted from performance on a relative basis. In addition, the Fund maintains a relatively conservative portfolio, weighted toward higher-quality speculative investments, which detracted from performance as lower quality outperformed during the period.

• Conversely, the Fund’s greater allocation to high yield bonds relative to its Lipper category competitors had a positive impact on performance. Describe recent portfolio activity. • During the period, the Fund modestly increased its level of risk and use of leverage as market conditions improved. In particular, the Fund increased exposure to lower-quality credits and sectors that are more favorably impacted by rising commodity prices and an improving economy. Describe portfolio positioning at period end. • At period end, the Fund held 86% of its total portfolio in floating rate loan interests and 10% in corporate bonds, with the remainder in asset-backed securities, common stocks and equity equivalents. Cash positions were neg- ligible for most of the period. The Fund ended the period with leverage at approximately 21% of its total managed assets.

Fund Summary as of February 28, 2011 BlackRock Diversified Income Strategies Fund, Inc. Investment Objective BlackRock Diversified Income Strategies Fund, Inc.’s (DVF) (the “Fund”) investment objective is to provide shareholders with high current income. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in floating rate debt securities and instruments, including floating rate loans, bonds, certain preferred securities (including certain convertible preferred securities), notes or other debt securities or instruments which pay a floating or variable rate of interest until maturity. The Fund considers floating rate debt securities to include fixed rate debt securities held by the Fund where the Fund has entered into certain derivative transactions at either the portfolio level or with respect to an individual security held by the Fund, including interest rate swap agreements, in an attempt to convert the fixed rate payments it receives with respect to such securities into floating rate payments. The Fund may invest, under normal market conditions, a substantial portion of its assets in below investment grade quality securities. The Fund may invest directly in such securities or syntheti cally through the use of derivatives. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary How did the Fund perform? • For the six months ended February 28, 2011, the Fund returned 10.13% based on market price and 8.93% based on NAV. For the same period, the Lipper Loan Participation Funds category posted an average return of 14.91% based on market price and 9.11% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Fund 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. What factors influenced performance? • The bank loan sector posted strong returns as risk assets rallied during the period. Lower-quality sectors and credits outperformed their higher-quality counterparts and the high yield sector outperformed bank loans. Because the Fund invests primarily in bank loans, and it held an average of 14% of its portfolio in corporate bonds during the period, the use of leverage had a positive impact on returns as these sectors advanced. However, the Fund maintains a lower level of leverage (at an average amount between 20% and 26%) than the average level maintained by the leveraged funds in its Lipper category, which detracted from performance on a relative basis. In addition, the Fund maintains a relatively conservative portfolio, weighted toward higher-quality speculative investments, which detracted from per- formance as lower quality outperformed during the period.

• Conversely, the Fund’s greater allocation to high yield bonds relative to its Lipper category competitors had a positive impact on performance.

Fund Summary as of February 28, 2011 BlackRock Floating Rate Income Strategies Fund, Inc. Investment Objective BlackRock Floating Rate Income Strategies Fund, Inc.’s (FRA) (the “Fund”) investment objective is to provide shareholders with high current income and such preservation of capital as is consistent with investment in a diversified, leveraged portfolio consisting primarily of floating rate debt securities and instruments. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in floating rate debt securities, including floating or variable rate debt securities that pay interest at rates that adjust whenever a specified interest rate changes and/or which reset on predetermined dates (such as the last day of a month or calendar quarter). The Fund invests a substantial portion of its investments in floating rate debt securities consisting of secured or unsecured senior floating rate loans that are rated below investment grade. The Fund may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary How did the Fund perform? • For the six months ended February 28, 2011, the Fund returned 8.59% based on market price and 9.47% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Loan Participation Funds category posted an average return of 14.91% based on market price and 9.11% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Fund's premium to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV. What factors influenced performance? • The bank loan sector posted strong returns as risk assets rallied during the period. Lower-quality sectors and credits outperformed their higher-quality counterparts and the high yield sector outperformed bank loans. Because the Fund invests primarily in bank loans, and it held an average of 15% of its portfolio in corporate bonds during the period, the use of leverage had a positive impact on returns (on an absolute basis) as these sectors advanced. Holding a greater allocation to high yield bonds relative to its Lipper category competitors drove the Fund’s outperformance.

• The Fund maintains a relatively conservative portfolio, weighted toward higher-quality speculative investments, which detracted from performance as lower quality outperformed during the period.

Fund Summary as of February 28, 2011 BlackRock Limited Duration Income Trust Investment Objective BlackRock Limited Duration Income Trust’s (BLW) (the “Fund”) investment objective is to provide current income and capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in three distinct asset classes: • intermediate duration, investment grade corporate bonds, mortgage-related securities and asset-backed securities and US Government and agency securities; • senior, secured floating rate loans made to corporate and other business entities; and • US dollar-denominated securities of US and non-US issuers rated below investment grade, and to a limited extent, in non-US dollar denominated securities of non-US issuers rated below investment grade. The Fund’s portfolio normally has an average portfolio duration of less than five years (including the effect of anticipated leverage), although it may be longer from time to time depending on market conditions. The Fund may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary How did the Fund perform? • For the six months ended February 28, 2011, the Fund returned 5.33% based on market price and 8.73% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper High Current Yield Funds (Leveraged) category posted an average return of 9.98% based on market price and 12.87% based on NAV. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Fund's discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The following discussion relates to performance based on NAV. What factors influenced performance? • High yield bonds delivered strong performance as risk assets rallied during the period. While the Fund’s average allocation to high yield contributed to performance on an absolute basis, its average allocation to bank loans and to investment grade credit, both of which sectors underperformed high yield, hurt performance relative to its Lipper category competitors, which invest pri- marily in high yield bonds. The Fund maintained leverage at an average amount between 20% and 22% of its total managed assets, which detracted from relative performance versus competitors that maintained higher levels of leverage, as would be expected when markets are advanc- ing.

• Security selection within the Fund’s high yield allocation had a positive impact on performance, as did a bias toward lower-quality credits. Within the Fund’s investment grade segment, limited exposure to corporate bonds and a large allocation to securitized assets proved beneficial. In addition, the Fund’s relatively modest portfolio duration and exposure to more credit-sensitive sectors benefited performance as interest rates rose during the period. Describe recent portfolio activity. • Over the period, the Fund shifted its overall positioning from a more conser- vative stance to that which is more consistent with a gradually improving economy. In particular, the Fund increased exposure to lower-quality credits and sectors that are more favorably impacted by higher commodity prices and an improving economy. Describe portfolio positioning at period end. • At period end, the Fund held 38% of its total portfolio in corporate bonds, 38% in floating rate loan interests, 10% in non-agency mortgage-backed securities, 8% in U.S. government sponsored agency securities, and 4% in asset-backed securities. The remainder of the portfolio was invested in tax- able municipal bonds, equities and equity equivalents, while the Fund’s cash position was negligible. The Fund ended the period with leverage at approximately 21% of its total managed assets.

Fund Summary as of February 28, 2011 BlackRock Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc. Investment Objective BlackRock Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc.’s (the “Fund”) investment objective is to provide as high a level of current income and such preservation of capital as is consistent with investment in senior collateralized corporate loans (“corporate loans”) primarily in the form of participation interests, as defined below, in corporate loans made by banks or other financial institutions. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing its assets in the Master Senior Floating Rate LLC ("Master LLC"), a separate closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. Master LLC may invest in a corporate loan either by participating as a co-lender at the time the loan is originated or by buying a participation or assignment interest in the corporate loan from a co-lender or a participant (collectively, “participation interests”). Master LLC invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in corporate loans or participating in such loans that have floating or variable interest rates and, under normal market conditions, at least 65% of its assets in floating rate or variable rate loans made to corporate borrowers or participating in such loans. Master LLC may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.

Portfolio Management Commentary How did the Fund perform? • For the six months ended February 28, 2011, through its investment in the Master LLC, the Fund returned 6.61% based on NAV while the closed- end Lipper Loan Participation Funds category posted an average NAV return of 9.11% for the same period. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. What factors influenced performance? • The bank loan sector posted strong returns as risk assets rallied during the period. Lower-quality sectors and credits outperformed their higher-quality counterparts and the high yield sector outperformed bank loans. Because the Master LLC does not employ leverage, the Fund is expected to underper- form its Lipper category under strong market conditions as the category includes many leveraged competitors. The Fund performed as expected relative to its Lipper category as the bank loan and high yield sectors advanced over the period. • The Master LLC maintains a relatively conservative portfolio, weighted toward higher-quality credits and loan structures. This strategy had a nega- tive impact on relative performance as lower quality outperformed during the period.

• Conversely, the Master LLC’s greater allocation to high yield bonds (averag- ing 11% of the portfolio during the period) relative to the Fund’s Lipper category competitors had a positive impact on performance as high yield outperformed the bank loan sector. • The Master LLC frequently held cash committed for pending transactions; these cash balances did not have a significant impact on performance. Describe recent portfolio activity. • During the period, the Master LLC modestly increased its level of risk as market conditions improved. In particular, the Master LLC increased expo- sure to lower-quality credits and sectors that are more favorably impacted by rising commodity prices and an improving economy. Describe portfolio positioning at period end. • At period end, the Master LLC held 88% of its total portfolio in floating rate loan interests and 12% in corporate bonds. • Effective March 21, 2011, the Fund merged into BlackRock Floating Rate Income Portfolio, please refer to Notes 1 and 10 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

Fund Summary as of February 28, 2011 BlackRock Senior Floating Rate Fund II, Inc. Investment Objective BlackRock Senior Floating Rate Fund II, Inc.’s (the “Fund”) investment objective is to provide as high a level of current income and such preservation of capital as is consistent with investment in senior collateralized corporate loans (“corporate loans”) primarily in the form of participation interests, as defined below, in corporate loans made by banks or other financial institutions. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing its assets in the Master Senior Floating Rate LLC ("Master LLC"), a separate closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. Master LLC may invest in a corporate loan either by participating as a co-lender at the time the loan is originated or by buying a participation or assignment interest in the corporate loan from a co-lender or a participant (collectively, “participation interests”). Master LLC invests, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its assets in corporate loans or participating in such loans that have floating or variable interest rates and, under normal market conditions, at least 65% of its assets in floating rate or variable rate loans made to corporate borrowers or participating in such loans. Master LLC may invest directly in such securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.

The Benefits and Risks of Leveraging BHL, DVF, FRA and BLW may utilize leverage to seek to enhance the yield and NAV. However, these objectives cannot be achieved in all interest rate environments. The Funds may utilize leverage by borrowing through a credit facility, partici- pation in the TALF, or through entering into reverse repurchase agreements and treasury roll transactions. In general, the concept of leveraging is based on the premise that the financing cost of assets to be obtained from lever- age, which will be based on short-term interest rates, will normally be lower than the income earned by each Fund on its longer-term portfolio invest- ments. To the extent that the total assets of each Fund (including the assets obtained from leverage) are invested in higher-yielding portfolio investments, each Funds shareholders will benefit from the incremental net income. The interest earned on securities purchased with the proceeds from lever- age is paid to shareholders in the form of dividends, and the value of these portfolio holdings is reflected in the per share NAV. However, in order to benefit shareholders, the yield curve must be positively sloped; that is, short-term interest rates must be lower than long-term interest rates. If the yield curve becomes negatively sloped, meaning short-term interest rates exceed long-term interest rates, income to shareholders will be lower than if the Funds had not used leverage. To illustrate these concepts, assume a Funds capitalization is $100 million and it borrows for an additional $30 million, creating a total value of $130 million available for investment in long-term securities. If prevailing short- term interest rates are 3% and long-term interest rates are 6%, the yield curve has a strongly positive slope. In this case, the Fund pays borrowing costs and interest expense on the $30 million of borrowings based on the lower short-term interest rates. At the same time, the securities purchased by the Fund with assets received from the borrowings earn income based on long-term interest rates. In this case, the borrowing costs and interest expense of the borrowings is significantly lower than the income earned on the Funds long-term investments, and therefore the shareholders are the beneficiaries of the incremental net income. If short-term interest rates rise, narrowing the differential between short-term and long-term interest rates, the incremental net income pickup will be reduced or eliminated completely. Furthermore, if prevailing short-term inter- est rates rise above long-term interest rates of 6%, the yield curve has a negative slope. In this case, the Fund pays interest expense on the higher short-term interest rates whereas the Funds total portfolio earns income based on lower long-term interest rates.

Furthermore, the value of the Funds portfolio investments generally varies inversely with the direction of long-term interest rates, although other factors can influence the value of portfolio investments. In contrast, the redemption value of the Funds borrowings does not fluctuate in relation to interest rates. As a result, changes in interest rates can influence the Funds NAV positively or negatively in addition to the impact on Fund performance from leverage from borrowings discussed above. The use of leverage may enhance opportunities for increased income to the Funds and shareholders, but as described above, it also creates risks as short or long-term interest rates fluctuate. Leverage also will generally cause greater changes in the Funds NAVs, market prices and dividend rates than comparable portfolios without leverage. If the income derived from securities purchased with assets received from leverage exceeds the cost of leverage, each Funds net income will be greater than if leverage had not been used. Conversely, if the income from the securities purchased is not sufficient to cover the cost of leverage, each Funds net income will be less than if leverage had not been used, and therefore the amount available for distribution to shareholders will be reduced. Each Fund may be required to sell portfolio securities at inopportune times or at dis- tressed values in order to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to the use of leverage or as required by the terms of leverage instruments, which may cause a Fund to incur losses. The use of leverage may limit each Funds ability to invest in certain types of securities or use certain types of hedging strategies. Each Fund will incur expenses in connection with the use of leverage, all of which are borne by shareholders and may reduce income. Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Funds are permitted to borrow through their credit facility, through participation in the TALF or entering into reverse repurchase agreements up to 33 1 / 3 % of their total man- aged assets. As of February 28, 2011, the Funds had outstanding leverage from borrowings as a percentage of their total managed assets as follows:

	Percent of
	Leverage
BHL	21%
DVF	21%
FRA	18%
BLW	21%

Derivative Financial Instruments The Funds may invest in various derivative instruments, including swaps, financial futures contracts, 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 cus- tody of securities or to hedge market, interest rate, credit, 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 Funds’ ability to use a derivative instrument successfully depends on the invest- ment advisor’s ability to predict pertinent market movements accurately, which cannot be assured. The use of derivative instruments may result in losses greater than if they had not been used, may require a Fund to sell or purchase portfolio investments at inopportune times or for distressed values, may limit the amount of appreciation a Fund can realize on an investment, may result in lower dividends paid to shareholders or may cause a Fund to hold an investment that it might otherwise sell. The Funds’ investments in these instruments are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Disclosure of Expenses for Continuously Offered Closed-End Funds

Shareholders of BlackRock Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc. and BlackRock Senior Floating Rate Fund II, Inc. may incur the following charges: (a) expenses related to transactions, including early withdrawal fees; and (b) operating expenses including administration fees, and other Fund expenses. The examples on the previous pages (which are based on a hypo- thetical investment of $1,000 invested on September 1, 2010 and held through February 28, 2011) are intended to assist shareholders both in calculating expenses based on an investment in each Fund and in compar- ing these expenses with similar costs of investing in other mutual funds. The tables provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. In order to estimate the expenses a shareholder paid during the period covered by this report, shareholders can divide their account value by $1,000 and then multiply the result by the number corresponding to their Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period.”

The tables also provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses. In order to assist shareholders in comparing the ongoing expenses of investing in these Funds and other funds, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in other funds’ shareholder reports. The expenses shown in the tables are intended to highlight shareholders’ ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional expenses, such as early withdrawal fees. Therefore, the hypothetical examples are useful in comparing ongoing expenses only, and will not help shareholders deter- mine the relative total expenses of owning different funds. If these trans- actional expenses were included, shareholder expenses would have been higher.

• Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivatives. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes 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 Fund'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 Fund's policy regarding valuation of investments and derivatives and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

• For Fund compliance purposes, the Fund’s industry classifications refer to any one or more of the industry sub-classifications used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or rating group indexes, and/or as defined by Fund management. This definition may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine such industry sub-classifications for reporting ease. • Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivatives. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows: • Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities • Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) • Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Fund'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 Fund's policy regarding valuation of investments and derivatives and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

• Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivatives. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows: • Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities • Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) • Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the cir- cumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Fund’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 Fund’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivatives and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial statements.

The following tables summarize the inputs used as of February 28, 2011 in deter- mining the fair valuation of the Fund’s investments and derivatives:

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) 1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies: BlackRock Defined Opportunity Credit Trust (“BHL”), BlackRock Diversified Income Strategies Fund, Inc. (“DVF”), BlackRock Floating Rate Income Strategies Fund, Inc. (“FRA”), BlackRock Limited Duration Income Trust (“BLW”), BlackRock Senior Floating Rate Fund, Inc. (“Senior Floating Rate”) and BlackRock Senior Floating Rate Fund II, Inc. (“Senior Floating Rate II”) (collectively, the “Funds” or individually as a “Fund”) are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). BHL and BLW are organized as Delaware Statutory trusts. DVF, FRA, Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II are organized as Maryland corp- orations. BHL, DVF, FRA and BLW are registered as diversified, closed-end management investment companies. Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II are registered as continuously offered, non-diversified, closed-end management investment companies. The Funds’ financial state- ments 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. Each Fund’s Board of Directors/Trustees are collectively referred to throughout this report as the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”. The Funds determine and make available for publication the net asset values of their Common Shares on a daily basis. Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II seek to achieve their investment objectives by investing all their assets in the Master Senior Floating Rate LLC (the “Master LLC”), which has the same investment objective and strategies as these Funds. The value of each Fund’s invest- ment in the Master LLC reflects each Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Master LLC. The performance of each Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Master LLC. The financial statements of the Master LLC, including the Schedule of Investments, are included else- where in this report and should be read in conjunction with Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II’s financial statements. The percentage of the Master LLC owned by Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II at February 28, 2011 was 67% and 33%, respectively. Reorganizations: On September 2, 2010, the Board of each of Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II (the “Senior Floating Rate Funds”) and on September 17, 2010 the Board of Trustees of BlackRock Funds II approved the reorganization of each Senior Floating Rate Fund into the BlackRock Floating Rate Income Portfolio, a series of BlackRock Funds II (“Floating Rate Income Portfolio”), with the BlackRock Floating Rate Income Portfolio being the legal surviving fund (the “Reorganizations”). The Reorganizations were effective on March 21, 2011, see Note 10 for more details. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds: Valuation: US GAAP defines fair value as the price the Funds would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Funds fair value their financial instruments at market value using independent dealers or pricing services under policies approved by the Board. The Funds value their bond investments on the basis of last available bid prices or current market quotations provided by dealers or pricing services. Floating rate loan interests are valued at the mean of the bid prices from one or more brokers or dealers as obtained from a pricing service. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain informa- tion with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments, various relationships observed in the market between investments and calculated yield measures. Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are valued by independent pricing services using models that consider esti- mated cash flows of each tranche of the security, establish a benchmark yield and develop an estimated tranche specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche. Financial futures contracts traded on exchanges are valued at their last sale price. To-be- announced (“TBA”) commitments are valued on the basis of last available bid prices or current market quotations provided by pricing services. Swap agreements are valued utilizing quotes received daily by the Funds’ pricing service or through brokers, which are derived using daily swap curves and models that incorporate a number of market data factors, such as dis- counted cash flows and trades and values of the underlying reference instruments. Investments in open-end registered 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. Equity investments traded on a recognized securities exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market System (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the last reported sale price that day or the NASDAQ official closing price, if applicable. For equity investments traded on more than one exchange, the last reported sale price on the exchange where the stock is primarily traded is used. Equity investments traded on a recognized exchange for which there were no sales on that day are valued at the last available bid price. If no bid price is available, the prior day’s price will be used, unless it is determined that such prior day’s price no longer reflects the fair value of the security. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign curren- cies are translated into US dollars using exchange rates determined as of the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at the mean between the bid and ask prices and are determined as of the close of business on the NYSE. Interpolated values are derived when the settlement date of the contract is an interim date for which quotations are not available. Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the last bid and ask prices at the close of the options market in which the options trade. An exchange-traded option for which there is no mean price is valued at the last bid price. If no bid 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

62 SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT FEBRUARY 28, 2011

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) value of the option. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) options are valued by an independent pricing service using a mathematical model which incorpo- rates 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 Fund might reasonably expect to receive from the cur- rent sale of that asset in an arm’s-length transaction. Fair value determina- tions 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 Fund’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. Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II record their investments in the Master LLC at fair value based on each Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Master LLC. Valuation of securities held by the Master LLC, including categorization of fair value measurements, is discussed in Note 1 of the Master LLC’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report. Foreign Currency Transactions: The Funds’ books and records are main- tained in US dollars. Purchases and sales of investment securities are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the date the transactions are entered into. Generally, when the US dollar rises in value against a foreign currency, the Funds’ 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. The Funds report realized currency gains (losses) on foreign currency related transactions as components of net realized gain (loss) for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. Asset-Backed and Mortgage-Backed Securities: Certain Funds may invest in asset-backed securities. Asset-backed securities are generally issued as pass-through certificates, which represent undivided fractional ownership interests in an underlying pool of assets, or as debt instruments, which are also known as collateralized obligations, and are generally issued as the debt of a special purpose entity organized solely for the purpose of owning such assets and issuing such debt. Asset-backed securities are often backed by a pool of assets representing the obligations of a number of dif- ferent parties. The yield characteristics of certain asset-backed securities may differ from traditional debt securities. One such major difference is that all or a principal part of the obligations may be prepaid at any time because the underlying assets (i.e., loans) may be prepaid at any time. As a result, a decrease in interest rates in the market may result in increases in the level of prepayments as borrowers, particularly mortgagors, refinance and repay their loans. An increased prepayment rate with respect to an asset-backed security subject to such a prepayment feature will have the effect of shortening the maturity of the security. If a Fund has purchased such an asset-backed security at a premium, a faster than anticipated prepayment rate could result in a loss of principal to the extent of the premium paid. Certain Funds may purchase certain mortgage pass-through securities. There are a number of important differences among the agencies and instrumentalities of the US government that issue mortgage-related securities and among the securities that they issue. For example, mortgage- related securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae are guaranteed as to the timely payment of principal and interest by Ginnie Mae and such guarantee is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. However, mortgage-related securities issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, inc- luding Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae guaranteed Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, which are solely the obligations of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, are not backed by or entitled to the full faith and credit of the United States and are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the Treasury. Zero-Coupon Bonds: Certain Funds may invest in zero-coupon bonds, which are normally issued at a significant discount from face value and do not provide for periodic interest payments. Zero-coupon bonds may experience greater volatility in market value than similar maturity debt obligations which provide for regular interest payments. Preferred Stock: Certain Funds may invest in preferred stocks. Preferred stock has a preference over common stock in liquidation (and generally in receiving dividends as well) but is subordinated to the liabilities of the issuer in all respects. As a general rule, the market value of preferred stock with a fixed dividend rate and no conversion element varies inversely with interest rates and perceived credit risk, while the market price of convertible preferred stock generally also reflects some element of conversion value. Because preferred stock is junior to debt securities and other obligations of the issuer, deterioration in the credit quality of the issuer will cause greater changes in the value of a preferred stock than in a more senior debt security with similar stated yield characteristics. Unlike interest payments

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) on debt securities, preferred stock dividends are payable only if declared by the issuer’s board of directors. Preferred stock also may be subject to optional or mandatory redemption provisions. Floating Rate Loan Interests: Certain Funds may invest in floating rate loan interests. The floating rate loan interests the Funds hold are typically issued to companies (the “borrower”) by banks, other financial institutions, and privately and publicly offered corporations (the “lender”). Floating rate loan interests are generally non-investment grade, often involve borrowers whose financial condition is troubled or uncertain and companies that are highly leveraged. The Funds may invest in obligations of borrowers who are in bankruptcy proceedings. Floating rate loan interests may include fully funded term loans or revolving lines of credit. Floating rate loan interests are typically senior in the corporate capital structure of the borrower. Floating rate loan interests generally pay interest at rates that are periodi- cally determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. The base lending rates are generally the lending rate offered by one or more European banks, such as LIBOR (London Inter Bank Offered Rate), the prime rate offered by one or more US banks or the certificate of deposit rate. Floating rate loan interests may involve foreign borrowers, and invest- ments may be denominated in foreign currencies. The Funds consider these investments to be investments in debt securities for purposes of their investment policies. When a Fund buys a floating rate loan interest it may receive a facility fee and when it sells a floating rate loan interest it may pay a facility fee. On an ongoing basis, the Funds may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit amount of a floating rate loan interest. The Funds earn and/or pay facility and other fees on floating rate loan interests, which are shown as facility and other fees in the Statements of Operations. Facility and commitment fees are typically amortized to income over the term of the loan or term of the commitment, respectively. Consent and amendment fees are recorded to income as earned. Prepayment penalty fees, which may be received by the Funds upon the prepayment of a floating rate loan interest by a borrower, are recorded as realized gains. The Funds may invest in multiple series or tranches of a loan. A different series or tranche may have varying terms and carry different associated risks. Floating rate loan interests are usually freely callable at the borrower’s option. The Funds may invest in such loans in the form of participations in loans (“Participations”) or assignments (“Assignments”) of all or a portion of loans from third parties. Participations typically will result in the Funds having a contractual relationship only with the lender, not with the bor- rower. The Funds will have the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the Participation and only upon receipt by the lender of the payments from the borrower. In connection with purchasing Participations, the Funds generally will have no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement, nor any rights of offset against the borrower, and the Funds may not benefit directly from any collateral supporting the loan in which it has purchased the Participation. As a result, the Funds will assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the Participation. The Funds’ investment in loan participation interests involves the risk of insolvency of the financial intermediaries who are parties to the transactions. In the event of the insolvency of the lender selling the Participation, the Funds may be treated as general creditors of the lender and may not benefit from any offset between the lender and the borrower. Assignments typically result in the Funds having a direct contrac- tual relationship with the borrower, and the Funds may enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement. Forward Commitments and When-Issued Delayed Delivery Securities: Certain Funds may purchase securities on a when-issued basis and may purchase or sell securities on a forward commitment basis. Settlement of such transactions normally occurs within a month or more after the pur- chase or sale commitment is made. The Funds may purchase securities under such conditions with the intention of actually acquiring them, but may enter into a separate agreement to sell the securities before the settle- ment date. Since the value of securities purchased may fluctuate prior to settlement, the Funds may be required to pay more at settlement than the security is worth. In addition, the Funds are not entitled to any of the inter- est earned prior to settlement. When purchasing a security on a delayed delivery basis, the Funds assume the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. In the event of default by the counterparty, the Funds’ maximum amount of loss is the unrealized appreciation of unsettled when-issued transactions, which is shown in the Schedules of Investments, if any. TBA Commitments: Certain Funds may enter into TBA commitments. TBA commitments are forward agreements for the purchase or sale of mort- gage-backed securities for a fixed price, with payment and delivery on an agreed upon future settlement date. The specific securities to be delivered are not identified at the trade date; however, delivered securities must meet specified terms, including issuer, rate and mortgage terms. The Funds gen- erally enter into TBA commitments with the intent to take possession of or deliver the underlying mortgage-backed securities but can extend the settlement or roll the transaction. TBA commitments involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased or sold declines or increases, respectively, prior to settlement date. Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions: Certain Funds may sell TBA mortgage- backed securities and simultaneously contract to repurchase substantially similar (same type, coupon and maturity) securities on a specific future date at an agreed upon price. During the period between the sale and repurchase, the Funds will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities sold. The Funds account for dollar roll transactions as purchases and sales and realize gains and losses on these transactions. These transactions may increase the Funds’ portfolio turnover rate. Mortgage dollar rolls involve the risk that the market value of the securities that the Funds are required to purchase may decline below the agreed upon repurchase price of those securities.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) Reverse Repurchase Agreements: Certain Funds may enter into reverse repurchase agreements with qualified third party broker-dealers. In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Funds sell securities to a bank or bro- ker-dealer and agree to repurchase the same securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price. Certain agreements have no stated maturity and can be terminated by either party at any time. Interest on the value of the reverse repurchase agreements issued and outstanding is based upon competitive market rates determined at the time of issuance. The Funds may utilize reverse repurchase agreements when it is anticipated that the interest income to be earned from the investment of the proceeds of the transaction is greater than the interest expense of the transaction. Reverse repurchase agreements involve leverage risk and also the risk that the market value of the securities that the Funds are obligated to repurchase under the agreement may decline below the repurchase price. In the event the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Funds use of the proceeds of the agreement may be restricted while the other party, or its trustee or receiver, determines whether or not to enforce the Funds obligation to repurchase the securities. Segregation and Collateralization: In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) require that the Funds either deliver collateral or segregate assets in con- nection with certain investments (e.g., dollar rolls, TBA sale commitments, financial futures contracts, foreign currency exchange contracts and swaps) or certain borrowings (e.g., reverse repurchase agreements, TALF loans and loan payable), the Funds will, consistent with SEC rules and/or certain interpretive letters issued by the SEC, segregate collateral or desig- nate on their 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 transac- tions are entered into (the trade dates). For financial reporting purposes, contributions to and withdrawals from the Master LLC are accounted for on a trade basis. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are subsequently recorded when the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on debt securities, is recognized on the accrual basis. Consent fees are compensation for agreeing to changes in the terms of debt instruments and are included in facility and other fees in the Statements of Operations.

Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II record daily their propor- tionate share of the Master LLCs income, expenses and realized and unre- alized gains and losses. In addition, both Funds accrue their own expenses. Dividends and Distributions: Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid monthly. Distributions of capital gains are recorded on the ex-dividend dates. If the total dividends and distributions made in any tax year exceeds net investment income and accumulated realized capital gains, a portion of the total distribution may be treated as a tax return of capital. The amount and timing of dividends and distributions are deter- mined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from US GAAP. Income Taxes: It is each Funds policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Certain Funds have wholly owned taxable subsidiaries organized as limited liability companies (the Taxable Subsidiaries) each of which holds one of the investments listed in the Schedules of Investments. The Taxable Subsidiaries allow a Fund to hold an investment that is organized as an operating partnership while still satisfying Regulated Investment Company tax requirements. Income earned on the investments held by the Taxable Subsidiaries is taxable to such subsidiaries. Income tax expense, if any, of the Taxable Subsidiaries is reflected in the value of the investments held by the Taxable Subsidiaries. Each Fund files US federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limita- tions on the Funds US federal tax returns remains open for each of the two years ended August 31, 2010 and the period ended August 31, 2008 for BHL, the four years ended August 31, 2010 for DVF, FRA, Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II and the two years ended August 31, 2010, the period ended August 31, 2008 and the year ended October 31, 2007 for BLW. The statutes of limitations on the Funds state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the juris- diction. Management does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability. Deferred Compensation and BlackRock Closed-End Share Equivalent Investment Plan: Under the deferred compensation plan approved by each Funds Board, non-interested Directors (Independent Directors) 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 Directors. This has approximately the same economic effect for the Independent Directors as if the Independent Directors had invested the deferred amounts directly in certain other BlackRock Closed-End Funds.

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT FEBRUARY 28, 2011 65

$$/page=

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) The deferred compensation plan is not funded and obligations there-under represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of each Fund. Each Fund may, however, elect to invest in common shares of certain other BlackRock Closed-End Funds selected by the Independent Directors in order to match its deferred compensation obligations. Investments to cover each Fund’s deferred compensation liability, if any, are included in other assets in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Dividends and dis- tributions from the BlackRock Closed-End Fund investments under the plan are included in dividends — affiliated in the Statements of Operations. Other: Expenses directly related to a Fund are charged to that Fund. Other operating expenses shared by several funds are pro rated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. The Funds have an arrangement with the custodians whereby fees may be reduced by credits earned on uninvested cash balances, which if applica- ble are shown as fees paid indirectly in the Statements of Operations. The custodians impose fees on overdrawn cash balances, which can be offset by accumulated credits earned or may result in additional custody charges. 2. Derivative Financial Instruments: The Funds engage in various portfolio investment strategies using derivative contracts both to increase the returns of the Funds and to economically hedge, or protect, their exposure to certain risks such as credit risk, interest rate 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 unfavor- able change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The Funds’ 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 Funds bear the risk of loss in the amount of the premiums paid plus the positive change in mar- ket values net of any collateral received on the options should the counter- party fail to perform under the contracts. Options written by the Funds do not give rise to counterparty credit risk, as options written obligate the Funds 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 Funds 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 Fund and each of its respective counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreement allows each Fund 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 Funds from their counterparties are not fully collateralized contractually or otherwise, the Funds 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 Funds 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 contracts prior to maturity in the event the Funds’ net assets decline by a stated percentage or the Funds fail to meet the terms of its ISDA Master Agreements, which would cause the Funds to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty. Financial Futures Contracts: The Funds purchase or sell financial futures contracts and options on financial futures contracts to gain exposure to, or economically hedge against, changes in interest rates (interest rate risk). Financial futures contracts are agreements between the Funds and the counterparty to buy or sell a specific quantity of an underlying instrument at a specified price and at a specified date. Depending on the terms of the particular contract, futures contracts are settled either through physical delivery of the underlying instrument on the settlement date or by payment of a cash settlement amount on settlement date. Pursuant to the contract, the Funds agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as margin variation and are recorded by the Funds as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The use of financial futures contracts involves the risk of an imperfect correlation in the movements in the price of financial futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying assets. Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The Funds enter into foreign cur- rency exchange contracts as an economic hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio instruments or to obtain exposure to foreign cur- rencies (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 the Funds, help to manage the overall exposure to the cur- rency backing some of the investments held by the Funds. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Funds as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The use of foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk that the value of a foreign currency exchange contract changes unfavorably due to move- ments in the value of the referenced foreign currencies and the risk that

66 SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT FEBRUARY 28, 2011

$$/page=

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) a counterparty to the contract does not perform its obligations under the agreement. Options: The Funds purchase and write call and put options to increase or decrease their exposure to underlying instruments (interest rate risk) and/or, in the case of options written, to generate gains from options premiums. A call option gives the purchaser of the option the right (but not the obligation) to buy, and obligates the seller to sell (when the option is exercised), the underlying instrument at the exercise 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 the Funds purchase (write) an option, an amount equal to the premium paid (received) by the Funds is reflected as an asset (liability). The amount of the asset (liability) is subsequently marked- to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased (written). When an instrument is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the instrument acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the instrument sold. When an option expires (or the Funds enter into a closing transaction), the Funds realize a gain or loss on the option to the extent of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss to the extent the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premiums received or paid). When the Funds write a call option, such option is “covered,” meaning that the Funds hold the underlying instrument subject to being called by the option counterparty. When the Funds write a put option, such option is covered by cash in an amount sufficient to cover the obligation. In purchasing and writing options, the Funds bear the risk of an unfavor- able change in the value of the underlying instrument or the risk that the Funds may not be able to enter into a closing transaction due to an illiquid market. Exercise of a written option could result in the Funds purchasing or selling a security at a price different from the current market value. Swaps: The Funds enter into swap agreements, in which the Funds and a counterparty agree to make periodic net payments on a specified notional amount. These periodic payments received or made by the Funds are recorded in the Statements of Operations as realized gains or losses, respectively. Any upfront fees paid are recorded as assets and any upfront fees received are recorded as liabilities and amortized over the term of the swap. Swaps are marked-to-market daily and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation). When the swap is ter- minated, the Funds will record a realized gain or loss equal to the differ- ence between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Funds’ basis in the contract, if any. Generally, the basis of the contracts is the premium received or paid. Swap transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of interest rate, credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agree- ments, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obliga- tion to perform or disagree as to the meaning of the contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates and/or market values associated with these transactions. • Credit default swaps — The Funds enter into credit default swaps to manage their exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market, to reduce its risk exposure to defaults of corporate and/or sovereign issuers or to create exposure to corporate and/or sovereign issuers to which they are not otherwise exposed (credit risk). The Funds enter into credit default swap agreements to provide a measure of protection against the default of an issuer (as buyer of protection) and/or gain credit exposure to an issuer to which it is not otherwise exposed (as seller of protection). The Funds may either buy or sell (write) credit default swaps on single-name issuers (corporate or sovereign), a combination or basket of single-name issuers or traded indexes. Credit default swaps on single-name issuers are agreements in which the buyer pays fixed periodic payments to the seller in consideration for a guarantee from the seller to make a specific payment should a negative credit event take place with respect to the referenced entity (e.g., bankruptcy, failure to pay, obligation accelerators, repudiation, moratorium or restructuring). Credit default swaps on traded indexes are agreements in which the buyer pays fixed periodic payments to the seller in consideration for a guarantee from the seller to make a specific payment should a write-down, principal or interest shortfall or default of all or individual underlying securities included in the index occurs. As a buyer, if an underlying credit event occurs, the Funds will either receive from the seller an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced security or underlying securities comprising the index or receive a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising the index. As a seller (writer), if an underlying credit event occurs, the Funds will either pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced security or underlying securities comprising the index or pay a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising the index.

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 Funds for 1940 Act purposes, but BAC and Barclays are not. BHL, DVF, FRA and BLW entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), the Funds’ investment advi- sor, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, to provide invest- ment advisory and administration services. The Manager is responsible for the management of each Fund’s portfolio and provides the necessary per- sonnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of each Fund. For such services, each Fund pays the Manager a monthly fee at an annual rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets, plus the proceeds of any outstanding borrowings used for leverage as follows:

BHL	1.00%
DVF	0.75%
FRA	0.75%
BLW	0.55%

The Manager voluntarily agreed to waive its investment advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees each Fund pays to the Manager indirectly through its investment in affiliated money market funds, however the Manager does not waive its investment advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees paid through each Fund’s investment in other affiliated investment companies, if any. These amounts are shown as fees waived by advisor in the Statements of Operations. For the six months ended February 28, 2011, the amounts waived were as follows:

BHL	$ 819
DVF	$ 861
FRA	$1,260
BLW	$2,854

The Manager, on behalf of BHL, DVF, FRA and BLW, entered into a sub- advisory agreement with BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. (“BFM”), an affiliate of the Manager. The Manager pays BFM for services it provides, a monthly fee that is a percentage of the investment advisory fees paid by each Fund to the Manager. For the six months ended February 28, 2011, certain Funds reimbursed the Manager for certain accounting services, which are included in accounting services in the Statements of Operations. The reimbursements were as follows:

BHL	$ 444
DVF	$ 461
FRA	$2,860
BLW	$6,942

Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II entered into an Administration Agreement with the Manager. The administration fee paid to the Manager is calculated daily and paid monthly based on an annual rate of 0.25% and 0.40%, respectively, of the average daily value of these Fund’s net assets for the performance of administrative services (other than investment advice and related portfolio activities) necessary for the operation of these Funds. For Senior Floating Rate II, the Manager voluntarily agreed to waive expenses in order to limit total annual Fund operating expenses (excluding interest expense, acquired fund fees and expenses and certain other expenses) to 1.83% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. This voluntary waiver may be reduced or discontinued at any time without notice. Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II entered into a separate Distribution Agreement and Distribution Plan with BlackRock Investments, LLC (“BRIL”), which is an affiliate of BlackRock. For the six months ended February 28, 2011, BRIL received early with- drawal charges for Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II in the amount of $57,184 and $3,990, respectively relating to the tender of each Fund’s shares.

For the six months ended February 28, 2011, purchases and sales for BLW attributable to mortgage dollar rolls were $49,508,781 and $49,664,770, respectively. 5. Commitments: The Funds may invest in floating rate loan interests. In connection with these investments, the Funds may also enter into unfunded loan commit- ments (“commitments”). Commitments may obligate the Funds to furnish temporary financing to a borrower until permanent financing can be

arranged. In connection with these commitments, the Funds earn a com- mitment fee, typically set as a percentage of the commitment amount. Such fee income, which is classified in the Statements of Operations as facility and other fees, is recognized ratably over the commitment period. As of February 28, 2011, the Funds had the following unfunded loan com- mitments:

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Concentration, Market and Credit Risk: In the normal course of business, the Funds invest in securities and enter into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the issuer of a security to meet all its obligations (issuer credit risk). The value of securities held by the Funds may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Funds; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctua- tions. Similar to issuer credit risk, the Funds may be exposed to counter- party credit risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments. The Funds manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that they believe have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Funds’ exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is generally approximated by their value recorded in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities, less any collat- eral held by the Funds. Certain Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in securities backed by commercial or residential mortgage loans or in issuers that hold mortgage and other asset-backed securities. Please see the Schedules of Investments for these securities. Changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults on assets underlying these securities, can affect the value, income and/or liquidity of such positions. 8.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) 9. Borrowings: On March 4, 2010, BHL, DVF and FRA entered into a senior committed secured, 364-day revolving line of credit and a separate security agreement (the “SSB Agreement”) with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“SSB”). The Funds have granted a security interest in substantially all of their assets to SSB. The SSB Agreement allowed for the following maximum commitment amounts:

	Commitment
	Amounts
BHL	$ 55,000,000
DVF	$ 55,000,000
FRA	$103,000,000

Advances were made by SSB to the Funds, at the Funds’ option of (a) the higher of (i) 1.0% above the Fed Funds rate and (ii) 1.0% above the Overnight LIBOR or (b) 1.0% above the 7-day, 30-day, 60-day or 90-day LIBOR. Effective March 3, 2011, the SSB Agreement was renewed for 364 days. The SSB Agreement allows for the following maximum commitment amounts:

	Commitment
	Amounts
BHL	$ 63,300,000
DVF	$ 66,800,000
FRA	$137,200,000

Advances are made by SSB to the Funds at the Funds’ option of (a) the higher of (i) 0.80% above the Fed Funds rate and (ii) 0.80% above the Overnight LIBOR or (b) 0.80% above the 7-day, 30-day, 60-day or 90-day LIBOR. In addition, the Funds pay a facility fee and a commitment fee based on SSB’s total commitment to the Funds. The fees associated with each of the agreements are included in the Statements of Operations as borrowing costs. Advances to the Funds as of February 28, 2011 are shown in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as loan payable. The Funds may not declare dividends or make other distributions on shares or purchase any such shares if, at the time of the declaration, distribution or purchase, asset coverage with respect to the outstanding short-term borrowings is less than 300%. During the six months ended February 28, 2011, BLW borrowed under the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility (“TALF”). The TALF program was launched by the US Department of Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board as a credit facility designed to restore liquidity to the market for asset- backed securities. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“FRBNY”) pro- vided up to $1 trillion in non-recourse loans to support the issuance of certain AAA-rated asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage- backed securities (“Eligible Securities”). The Fund posted as collateral already-held Eligible Securities, which were all commercial mortgage- backed securities, in return for non-recourse, 5-year term loans (“TALF loans”) in an amount equal to approximately 85% of the value of such Eligible Securities.

The non-recourse provision of the TALF loans allowed the Fund to satisfy loan obligations with Eligible Securities, subject to certain conditions, even if the value of the Eligible Securities falls below the outstanding amount of the loan. The Fund can repay TALF loans prior to the maturity dates with no penalty. Principal and interest due on the loans will typically be paid with principal paydowns and interest received from the Eligible Securities. Credit agreements underlying each loan contain provisions to address instances in which interest payments on Eligible Securities fall short of amounts due to the FRBNY. The Fund paid to the FRBNY a one time administration fee of 0.20% of the amount borrowed, which was expensed as incurred in the current period by the Fund and is included in borrowing costs in the Statements of Operations. The Fund also paid a financing fee equal to the 5-year LIBOR swap rate plus 1.00% on the outstanding loan amount payable monthly, which is included in interest expense in the Statements of Operations. During the six months ended February 28, 2011, the Fund repaid its out- standing TALF loans and the Eligible Securities posted as collateral were returned to the Fund. The Fund financed the repayment of the TALF loans by entering into reverse repurchase agreements. Since the Fund had the ability to potentially satisfy TALF loan obligations by surrendering Eligible Securities, potential losses by the Fund associated with the TALF loans were limited to the difference between the amount of Eligible Securities posted at the time of loan initiation and the loan proceeds received by the Fund. The Fund elected to account for the outstanding TALF loans at fair value. The Fund elected to fair value its TALF loans to more closely align changes in the value of the TALF loans with changes in the value of the Eligible Securities and to reduce the potential volatility in the Statements of Operations which could result if only the Eligible Securities were fair valued. The TALF loans were valued utilizing quotations received from a board approved pricing service. TALF-eligible Asset-Backed Securities/Collateralized Mortgage-Backed Securities (“ABS/CMBS”) value may be affected by his- toric defaults and prepayments on the asset pool, expected future defaults and prepayments, current interest rate levels, current and forward modeled ABS/CMBS spread levels. Accordingly, TALF loan valuation methodologies may include, but are not limited to, the following inputs: (i) ABS/CMBS prepayment assumptions, (ii) discount rates and (iii) the non-recourse put option valuation. The resulting TALF loan valuation combines the present value of the future loan cash flows, plus the value of the non- recourse option. For the six months ended February 28, 2011, the daily weighted average interest rates for Funds with loans under the revolving credit agreements were as follows:

	Daily Weighted
	Average
	Interest Rate
BHL	1.25%
DVF	1.24%
FRA	1.26%

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded) For the six months ended February 28, 2011, the daily weighted average interest rate for BLW for reverse repurchase agreements and TALF loans was as follows:

	Daily Weighted

BLW	0.45%

Subsequent Events: Management’s evaluation of the impact of all subsequent events on the Funds’ financial statements was completed through the date the financial statements were issued and the following items were noted: Each Fund paid a net investment income dividend on March 31, 2011 to shareholders of record on March 15, 2011 as follows:

	Common Dividend
	Per Share
BHL	$0.0660
DVF	$0.0635
FRA	$0.0770
BLW	$0.1000

Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II paid a net investment income dividend on March 17, 2011 to shareholders of record on March 15, 2011 as follows:

	Common Dividend
	Per Share
Senior Floating Rate	$0.022941
Senior Floating Rate II	$0.012695

The Board and shareholders of each of Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II (individually, a “Target Fund” and collectively the “Target Funds”) and the Board and shareholders of Floating Rate Income Portfolio, a series of BlackRock Funds II (“Floating Rate Income Portfolio”), approved the reorganizations of each Target Fund into Floating Rate Income Portfolio, pursuant to which Floating Rate Income Portfolio acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed substantially all of the liabilities of the Target Funds in exchange for an equal aggregate value of the Floating Rate Income Portfolio shares. In connection with the acquisition, Floating Rate Income Portfolio is the legal surviving entity in the reorganization. Senior Floating Rate is the accounting or continuing portfolio for purposes of maintaining the financial statements and performance history in the post-reorganization fund. Each shareholder of the Target Funds received Floating Rate Income Portfolio’s shares equal to the net asset value of their Target Fund shares, as determined at the close of business on March 18, 2011. The Senior Floating Rate’s Common Shares were exchanged for Floating Rate Income Portfolio’s Investor A Shares and the Senior Floating Rate II’s Common Shares were exchanged for Floating Rate Income Portfolio’s newly estab- lished Investor C1 Shares. The reorganizations were accomplished by a tax-free exchange of shares of Floating Rate Income Portfolio in the following amounts and at the follow- ing conversion ratios:

	Shares Prior to Conversion		Shares of — Floating Rate	Share Class of — Floating Rate
	Reorganization	Ratio Income Portfolio Income Portfolio
Senior Floating
Rate	38,219,473	0.76034411	29,059,951	Investor A
Senior Floating
Rate II	17,364,443	0.82468294	14,320,160	Investor C1

Each Target Fund’s net assets and composition of net assets on March 18, 2011, the date of the merger, were as follows:

		Undistributed Accumulated	Net	Net	Net
	Net	Paid-in	Investment	Realized	Unrealized
	Assets	Capital	Income	Loss	Depreciation
Senior
Floating
Rate	$299,965,486 $496,699,650		$175,714 $(186,646,731) $(10,263,147)
Senior
Floating
Rate II $147,803,130 $191,685,602			$ 65,714	$ (39,557,380) $ (4,390,806)

For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Floating Rate Income Portfolio were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Target Funds was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of Floating Rate Income Portfolio’s real- ized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to share- holders for tax purposes. The aggregate net assets of Floating Rate Income Portfolio immediately after the acquisition amounted to $773,541,752. Each Target Fund’s fair value and cost of investments prior to the reorganization were as follows:

	Fair Value of	Cost of
	Investments	Investments
Senior Floating Rate	$301,386,890	$311,208,711
Senior Floating Rate II	$148,276,050	$153,108,180

The purpose of these transactions was to combine three funds managed by the Manager with the same or substantially similar (but not identical) investment objectives, investment policies, strategies, risks and restrictions. Each reorganization was a tax-free event and was effective on March 21, 2011. Assuming the acquisition had been completed on September 1, 2010, the beginning of the annual reporting period of Floating Rate Income Portfolio, the pro forma results of operations for the six months ended February 28, 2011 are as follows: • Net investment income: $12,617,143 • Net realized and change in unrealized gain/loss on investments: $22,898,023 • Net increase in net assets resulting from operations: $35,515,166

• For Master LLC compliance purposes, the Master LLC’s industry classifications refer to any one or more of the industry sub-classifications used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or rating group indexes, and/or as defined by Master LLC management. This definition may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine such industry sub-classifications for reporting ease. • Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivatives. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows: • Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets and liabilities • Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) • Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the cir- cumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Master LLC’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 Master LLC’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivatives and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) Master Senior Floating Rate LLC

Organization and Significant Accounting Policies: Master Senior Floating Rate LLC (the “Master LLC”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and is organized as a Delaware limited liability company. The Limited Liability Company Agreement permits the Board of Directors (the “Board”) to issue non transferable interests in the Master LLC, subject to certain limitations. The Master LLC’s 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. On September 2, 2010, the Board of each of Senior Floating Rate and Senior Floating Rate II (the "Senior Floating Rate Funds") and on September 17, 2010 the Board of Trustees of BlackRock Funds II approved the reorganization of each Senior Floating Rate Fund into the BlackRock Floating Rate Income Portfolio, a series of BlackRock Funds II, with the BlackRock Floating Rate Income Portfolio being the surviving fund (the “Reorganizations”). Each Senior Floating Rate Fund is a "feeder" fund that invests all of its assets in the Master LLC. In connection with the Reorganizations, the Board of the Master LLC approved the liquidation and dissolution of the Master LLC and the distribution of its assets. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Master LLC: Valuation: US GAAP defines fair value as the price the Master LLC would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Master LLC fair values its financial instruments at market value using independent dealers or pricing services under policies approved by the Board. The Master LLC values its bond investments on the basis of last available bid prices or cur- rent market quotations provided by dealers or pricing services. Floating rate loan interests are valued at the mean of the bid prices from one or more brokers or dealers as obtained from a pricing service. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain informa- tion with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from deal- ers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments, various relationships observed in the market between investments and cal- culated yield measures. Investments in open-end registered 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. Equity investments traded on a recognized securities exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market System (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the last reported sale price that day or the NASDAQ official closing price, if applicable. For equity investments traded on more than one exchange, the last reported sale price on the exchange where the stock is primarily traded is used. Equity investments traded on a recognized exchange for which there were no sales on that day are valued at the last available bid price. If no bid price is available, the prior day’s price will be used, unless it is determined that such prior day’s price no longer reflects the fair value of the security. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign curren- cies are translated into US dollars using exchange rates determined as of the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at the mean between the bid and ask prices and are determined as of the close of business on the NYSE. Interpolated values are derived when the settlement date of the contract is an interim date for which quotations are not available. 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 the Master LLC might reasonably expect to receive from the current sale of that asset in an arm’s-length transaction. Fair value det- erminations shall be based upon all available factors that the investment advisor and/or sub-advisor deems relevant. The pricing of all Fair Value Assets is subsequently reported to the Board or a committee thereof. Generally, trading in foreign instruments is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of business on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the values of such instruments may occur between the foreign market close and the close of business on the NYSE that may not be reflected in the computation of the Master LLC’s net assets. If events (for example, a company announcement, market volatility or a natural disaster) occur during such periods that are expected to mate- rially 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. Foreign Currency Transactions: The Master LLC’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 for- eign currency, the Master LLC’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. The Master LLC reports realized currency gains (losses) on foreign currency related transactions as components of net realized gain (loss) for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. Floating Rate Loan Interests: The Master LLC may invest in floating rate loan interests. The floating rate loan interests the Master LLC holds are typically issued to companies (the “borrower”) by banks, other financial institutions, and privately and publicly offered corporations (the “lender”). Floating rate loan interests are generally non-investment grade, often involve borrowers whose financial condition is troubled or uncertain and

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT FEBRUARY 28, 2011 85

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) Master Senior Floating Rate LLC

companies that are highly leveraged. The Master LLC may invest in obliga- tions of borrowers who are in bankruptcy proceedings. Floating rate loan interests may include fully funded term loans or revolving lines of credit. Floating rate loan interests are typically senior in the corporate capital structure of the borrower. Floating rate loan interests generally pay interest at rates that are periodically determined by reference to a base lending rate plus a premium. The base lending rates are generally the lending rate offered by one or more European banks, such as LIBOR (London Inter Bank Offered Rate), the prime rate offered by one or more US banks or the certificate of deposit rate. Floating rate loan interests may involve foreign borrowers, and investments may be denominated in foreign currencies. The Master LLC considers these investments to be investments in debt securities for purposes of its investment policies. When the Master LLC buys a floating rate loan interest it may receive a facility fee and when it sells a floating rate loan interest it may pay a facility fee. On an ongoing basis, the Master LLC may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit amount of a floating rate loan interest. The Master LLC earns and/or pays facility and other fees on floating rate loan interests, which are shown as facility and other fees in the Statement of Operations. Facility and commitment fees are typically amortized to income over the term of the loan or term of the commitment, respectively. Consent and amendment fees are recorded to income as earned. Prepayment penalty fees, which may be received by the Master LLC upon the prepayment of a floating rate loan interest by a bor- rower, are recorded as realized gains. The Master LLC may invest in multiple series or tranches of a loan. A different series or tranche may have varying terms and carry different associated risks. Floating rate loan interests are usually freely callable at the borrower’s option. The Master LLC may invest in such loans in the form of participa- tions in loans (“Participations”) or assignments (“Assignments”) of all or a portion of loans from third parties. Participations typically will result in the Master LLC having a contractual relationship only with the lender, not with the borrower. The Master LLC will have the right to receive payments of prin- cipal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender sell- ing the Participation and only upon receipt by the lender of the payments from the borrower. In connection with purchasing Participations, the Master LLC generally will have no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement, nor any rights of offset against the borrower, and the Master LLC may not benefit directly from any collateral supporting the loan in which it has purchased the Participation. As a result, the Master LLC will assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the Participation. The Master LLC’s investment in loan participation interests involves the risk of insolvency of the financial intermediaries who are parties to the transactions. In the event of the insolvency of the lender selling the Participation, the Master LLC may be treated as general creditors of the lender and may not benefit from any offset between the lender and the borrower. Assignments typically result in the Master LLC having a direct contractual relationship with the borrower, and the Master LLC may enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement.

Segregation and Collateralization: In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) require that the Master LLC either delivers collateral or segregates assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., foreign currency exchange con- tracts), the Master LLC will, consistent with SEC rules and/or certain inter- pretive 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 physi- cally segregated. Furthermore, based on requirements and agreements with certain exchanges and third party broker-dealers, each party has require- ments 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 transac- tions 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 for- eign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are subse- quently recorded when the Master LLC is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and dis- counts on debt securities, is recognized on the accrual basis. Consent fees are compensation for agreeing to changes in the terms of debt instruments and are included in facility and other fees in the Statement of Operations. Income Taxes: The Master LLC is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Master LLC is treated as the owner of its proportionate share of net assets, income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of the Master LLC. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. It is intended that the Master LLC’s assets will be managed so an investor in the Master LLC can satisfy the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Master LLC files US federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limita- tions on the Master LLC’s US federal tax returns remains open for each of the four years ended August 31, 2010. The statutes of limitations on the Master LLC’s state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction. Management does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability. Other: Expenses directly related to the Master LLC are charged to the Master LLC. Other operating expenses shared by several funds are pro rated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods. The Master LLC has an arrangement with the custodian whereby fees may be reduced by credits earned on uninvested cash balances, which if applicable are shown as fees paid indirectly in the Statement of Operations. The custodian imposes fees on overdrawn cash balances, which can be offset by accumulated credits earned or may result in additional custody charges.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) Master Senior Floating Rate LLC

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Master LLC engages in various portfolio investment strategies using derivative contracts both to increase the returns of the Master LLC and to economically hedge, or protect, its exposure to certain risks such as credit risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk. These contracts may be trans- acted on an exchange or over–the-counter (“OTC”). Losses may arise if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavor- able change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The Master LLC’s 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. The Master LLC 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 the Master LLC and each of its respective counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreement allows the Master LLC 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 Master LLC from its counterparties are not fully collateralized contractually or other- wise, the Master LLC bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-perfor- mance. See Note 1 “Segregation and Collateralization” for information with respect to collateral practices. In addition, the Master LLC manages counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that it believes have the financial resources to honor its 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 Master LLC’s net assets decline by a stated percentage or the Master LLC fails to meet the terms of its ISDA Master Agreements, which would cause the Master LLC to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty. Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The Master LLC enters into foreign currency exchange contracts as an economic hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio instruments or to obtain exposure to foreign cur- rencies (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 the Master LLC, help to manage the overall exposure to the currency backing some of the investments held by the Master LLC. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Master LLC as an unrealized gain or loss. When the con- tract is closed, the Master LLC records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The use of foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk that the value of a foreign currency exchange contract changes unfavorably due to movements in the value of the referenced foreign currencies and the risk that a counterparty to the contract does not perform its obligations under the agreement.

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded) Master Senior Floating Rate LLC

the management of the Master LLC’s portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of the Master LLC. For such services, the Master LLC pays the Manager a monthly fee at an annual rate of 0.95% of the Master LLC’s average daily net assets. The Manager voluntarily agreed to waive its investment advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees the Master LLC pays to the Manager indirectly through its investment in affiliated money market funds, however the Manager does not waive its investment advisory fees by the amount of investment advisory fees paid through the Master LLC’s investment in other affiliated investment companies, if any. This amount is shown as fees waived by advisor in the Statement of Operations. The Manager entered into a sub-advisory agreement with BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. (“BFM”) an affiliate of the Manager. The Manager pays BFM for services it provides, a monthly fee that is a percent- age of the investment advisory fees paid by the Master LLC to the Manager. For the six months ended February 28, 2011, the Master LLC reimbursed the Manager $4,580 for certain accounting services, which are included in accounting services in the Statement of Operations. Certain officers and/or directors of the Master LLC are officers and/or directors of BlackRock or its affiliates. 4. Investments: Purchases and sales of investments including paydowns and excluding short-term securities for the six months ended February 28, 2011, were $280,936,066 and $292,119,631, respectively. 5. Commitments: The Master LLC may invest in floating rate loan interests. In connection with these investments, the Master LLC may also enter into unfunded loan com- mitments (“commitments”). Commitments may obligate the Master LLC to furnish temporary financing to a borrower until permanent financing can be arranged. In connection with these commitments, the Master LLC earns a commitment fee, typically set as a percentage of the commitment amount. Such fee income, which is classified in the Statement of Operations as facility and other fees, is recognized ratably over the commitment period. As of February 28, 2011, the Master LLC had the following unfunded loan commitments:

	Unfunded	Value of — Underlying
Borrower	Commitment	Loan
Axcan	$ 892,697	$ 900,000
Delta Airlines, Inc.	$3,261,914	$3,350,000
Horizon Lines, LLC	$ 292,051	$ 288,733

Market and Credit Risk: In the normal course of business, the Master LLC invests in securities and enters into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the issuer of a security to meet all its obligations (issuer credit risk). The value of securities held by the Master LLC may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Master LLC; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to issuer credit risk, the Master LLC may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Master LLC has unsettled or open transactions may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments. The Master LLC manages counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that it believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Master LLC to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Master LLC’s exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is gener- ally approximated by their value recorded in the Master LLC’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Master LLC. 7. Borrowings: The Master LLC, along with certain other funds managed by the Manager and its affiliates, is a party to a $500 million credit agreement with a group of lenders, which expired in November 2010. The Master LLC may borrow under the credit agreement to fund shareholder redemptions. Effective November 2009, the credit agreement had the following terms: 0.02% upfront fee on the aggregate commitment amount which was allocated to the Master LLC based on its net assets as of October 31, 2009, a commit- ment fee of 0.10% per annum based on the Master LLC’s pro rata share of the unused portion of the credit agreement and interest at a rate equal to the higher of (a) the one-month LIBOR plus 1.25% per annum and (b) the Fed Funds rate plus 1.25% per annum on amounts borrowed. In addition, the Master LLC paid administration and arrangement fees which were allocated to the Master LLC based on its net assets as of October 31, 2009. Effective November 2010, the credit agreement was renewed until November 2011 with the following terms: a commitment fee of 0.08% per annum based on the Master LLC’s pro rata share of the unused portion of the credit agreement and interest at a rate equal to the higher of (a) the one-month LIBOR plus 1.00% per annum and (b) the Fed Funds rate plus 1.00% per annum on amounts borrowed. In addition, the Master LLC paid administration and arrangement fees which were allocated to the Master LLC based on its net assets as of October 31, 2010. The Master LLC did not borrow under the credit agreement during the six months ended February 28, 2011. 8. Subsequent Events: Management’s evaluation of the impact of all subsequent events on the Master LLC’s Financial statements was completed through the date the Financial Statements were issued and the following items were noted: As described in Note 1, pursuant to the Reorganization, on March 21, 2011, Floating Rate Income Portfolio acquired all of the assets and certain stated liabilities of the Senior Floating Rate Funds. In connection with the Reorganizations, the Master LLC distributed its assets and will be dissolved.

Additional Information Section 19(a) Notices These reported amounts and sources of distributions are estimates and are not provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources for tax reporting purposes will depend upon each Fund’s investment results during the year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. Each Fund will provide a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will explain the character of these dividends and distributions for federal income tax purposes.

		for the Fiscal Year-to-Date			Distributions for the Fiscal Year-to-Date
	Net	Net Realized		Total Per	Net	Net Realized		Total Per

FRA	$0.462	—	—	$0.462	100%	0%	0%	100%

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

Dividend Policy The Funds’ dividend policy is to distribute all or a portion of their net investment income to its shareholders on a monthly basis. In order to pro- vide shareholders with a more stable level of dividend distributions, the Funds may at times pay out less than the entire amount of net investment income earned in any particular month and may at times in any particular month pay out such accumulated but undistributed income in addition to net investment income earned in that month. As a result, the dividends paid by the Funds for any particular month may be more or less than the amount of net investment income earned by the Funds during such month. The Funds’ current accumulated but undistributed net investment income, if any, is disclosed in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, which com- prises part of the financial information included in this report.
