Bond Number: 82126651
NAME OF ASSURED: BLACKROCK CLOSED-END COMPLEX
NEW YORK AMENDATORY ENDORSEMENT
It is agreed that this Bond is amended as follows:
1. By adding to Section 13, Termination, the following:
Bonds In Effect Sixty (60) Days Or Less
If this Bond has been in effect for less than sixty (60) days and if it is not a renewal Bond, the
COMPANY may terminate it for any reason by mailing or delivering to the ASSURED and to the
authorized agent or broker, if any, written notice of termination at least sixty (60) days before the
effective date of termination.
Bonds In Effect More Than Sixty (60) Days
If this Bond has been in effect for sixty (60) days or more, or if it is a renewal of a Bond issued by the
COMPANY, it may be terminated by the COMPANY by mailing or delivering to the ASSURED and to
the authorized agent or broker, if any, written notice of termination at least sixty (60) days before the
effective date of termination. Furthermore, when the Bond is a renewal or has been in effect for sixty
(60) days or more, the COMPANY may terminate only for one or more of the reasons stated in 1-7
below.
1. Nonpayment of premium;
2. Conviction of a crime arising out of acts increasing the hazard insured against ;
3. Discovery of fraud or material misrepresentation in the obtaining of this Bond or in the
presentation of a claim thereunder;

insured against, and which occurred subsequent to inception of the current BOND PERIOD;
5. If applicable, material physical change in the property insured, occurring after issuance or last
annual renewal anniversary date of this Bond, which results in the property becoming uninsurable
in accordance with the COMPANY's objective, uniformly applied underwriting standards in effect
at the time this Bond was issued or last renewed; or material change in the nature or extent of this
Bond occurring after issuance or last annual renewal anniversary date of this Bond, which causes
the risk of loss to be substantially and materially increased beyond that contemplated at the time
this Bond was issued or last renewed;

6. A determination by the Superintendent of Insurance that continuation of the present premium
volume of the COMPANY would jeopardize the COMPANY's policyholders, creditors or the public,
or continuing the Bond itself would place the COMPANY in violation of any provision of the New
York Insurance Code; or
7. Where the COMPANY has reason to believe, in good faith and with sufficient cause, that there is
a probable risk or danger that the Property will be destroyed by the ASSURED for the purpose of
collecting the insurance proceeds.
Notice Of Termination
Notice of termination under this SECTION shall be mailed to the ASSURED and to the authorized agent
or broker, if any, at the address shown on the DECLARATIONS of this Bond. The COMPANY,
however, may deliver any notice instead of mailing it.

Renewal immediately below.

3. Paragraphs 1. and 2. immediately above shall not apply when the ASSURED, authorized agent or
broker, or another insurer has mailed or delivered written notice to the COMPANY that the Bond
has been replaced or is no longer desired.
3. By adding to General Agreement B., Representations Made By Assured, the following:

certain acts of terrorism. Terrorism is defined as any act certified by the Secretary of the
Treasury, in concurrence with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General of the
United States, to be an act of terrorism; to be a violent act or an act that is dangerous to
human life, property or infrastructure; to have resulted in damage within the United

terrorism is partially reimbursed by the United States under the formula set forth in the
Act. Under this formula, the United States pays 85% of covered terrorism losses that
exceed the statutorily established deductible to be paid by the insurance company
providing the coverage.
However, if aggregate insured losses attributable to terrorist acts certified under the Act

shall not make any payment for any portion of the amount of such losses that exceeds
$100 billion.

insurer deductible under the Act, we shall not be liable for the payment of any portion of
the amount of such losses that exceeds $100 billion, and in such case insured losses up
to that amount are subject to pro rata allocation in accordance with procedures
established by the Secretary of the Treasury.
The portion of your policy’s annual premium that is attributable to insurance for such acts
of terrorism is: $ -0-.

JOINT FIDELITY BOND AGREEMENT BY AND AMONG

THE BLACKROCK CLOSED-END FUNDS

JOINT FIDELITY BOND AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), dated as of November 1, 2007, by and among the BlackRock Closed-End Funds (each, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds") listed on Schedule A attached hereto, as the same may be amended from time to time, all of which are named insureds on a certain fidelity bond underwritten by Vigilant Insurance Company ("Vigilant"), a member of the Chubb Group of Insurance Companies, covering certain acts relating to the Funds (the "Bond").

WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, each of the Funds is a closed-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act");

WHEREAS, by the terms of Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act, the Funds are required to provide and to maintain in effect a bond against larceny and embezzlement by their officers and employees. By the terms of the rule, the Funds are authorized to secure the Bond that names all of the Funds as insureds;

WHEREAS, Rule 17g-1(f) under the 1940 Act requires that a registered management investment company named as an insured on a joint fidelity bond enter into a certain agreement with the other named insureds;

WHEREAS, a majority of the Board of Directors/Trustees (collectively, the "Board," the members of which are referred to as "Directors") of each Fund who are not "interested persons" as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act have given due consideration to all factors relevant to the form, amount and ratable allocation of premiums of such Bond, and the majority of such Directors have approved the amount, type, form and coverage of the Bond and the portion of the premium payable with respect to each Fund; and

WHEREAS, the Board has determined that the allocation of the proceeds payable under the Bond as set forth herein (which takes into account the extent to which the share of the premium allocated to each Fund is less than the premium the Fund would have had to pay if it had provided and maintained a single insured bond) is equitable with respect to each Fund and that each Fund will benefit from its respective participation in the Joint Fidelity Bond in compliance with this Rule.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual premises and covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, it is agreed by and between the Funds hereto as follows:

  1. Joint Insured Bond. The Funds have procured from Vigilant, a reputable fidelity insurance company, the Bond insuring each Fund against larceny and embezzlement of its securities and funds by such of its officers and employees who may, singly or jointly with others, have access to such securities or funds, directly or through authority to draw upon such funds or to direct generally the disposition of such securities. The Bond names each Fund as an insured, and complies with the requirements established by Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act.

  2. Amount. The Bond is in the amount based upon the total assets of each Fund, which are equal to or in excess of the minimum coverages required for each Fund under Rule 17g-1.

  3. Ratable Allocation of Premium. Each Fund will pay the percentage of the premium due under the Joint Fidelity Bond which is proportionate to the coverage as described in Paragraph 2.

  4. Ratable Allocation of Proceeds.

(a) In the event any recovery under the Bond is received as a result of a loss sustained by any of the Funds, then each Fund sustaining such loss shall receive an equitable and proportionate share of the recovery, said proportion to be established by the ratio that the claim bears to the total amount claimed by all participants, but

57

at least equal to the amount which each such Fund would have received had it provided and maintained a single insured bond with the minimum coverage required by Rule 17g-1(d)(1) under the 1940 Act.

(b) If the recovery is inadequate fully to indemnify each such Fund sustaining a loss, the recovery shall be allocated among such Funds as follows:

(i) Each Fund sustaining a loss shall be allocated an amount equal to the lesser of its actual loss or the amount of coverage maintained by such Fund as set forth under Paragraph 2.

(ii) The remaining portion of the proceeds shall be allocated to each Fund sustaining a loss not fully covered by the allocation under subparagraph (i) in the proportion that each such Fund's gross assets as of the end of its fiscal quarter preceding the loss bears to the sum of the gross assets of all such Funds. If such allocation would result in any Fund sustaining a loss receiving a portion of the recovery in excess of the loss actually sustained by such Fund, the aggregate of such excess portions shall be allocated among the other Funds whose losses would not be fully indemnified in the same proportion as each such Fund's gross assets bear to the sum of the gross assets of all Funds entitled to receive a share of the excess (both determined as of the fiscal quarter of each Fund preceding the loss). Any allocation in excess of a loss actually sustained by any such Fund shall be reallocated in the same manner.

  1. Claims and Settlements. Each Fund shall, within ten days after the making of any claim under the Bond, provide the other Funds with written notice of the amount and nature of such claim. Each Fund shall, within ten days after the receipt thereof, provide the other Funds with written notice of the terms of settlement of any claim made under the Bond by such Fund.

  2. Modification and Amendments.

(a) If a Fund shall determine that the coverage required by Rule 17g-1 for such Fund has changed, or that the amount of the total coverage allocated to such Fund should otherwise be modified, it shall so notify the other Funds setting forth the modification which it believes to be appropriate, and the proposed treatment of any increased or return premium.

(b) Within 60 days after such notice, the Funds shall seek the approval required by Rule 17g-1, and if approvals are obtained, shall effect an amendment to this Agreement and the Bond. Any Fund may terminate this Agreement (except with respect to losses occurring prior to such withdrawal) by giving at least 60 days' written notice to the other Funds. The Fund(s) terminating the Agreement shall thereafter be removed as a named insured in accordance with Rule 17g-1 and the Fund(s) shall be entitled to receive the pro rata portion of any return of premium paid to the insurance company.

(c) This Agreement is intended to cover all entities insured under the Joint Fidelity Bond. Any insured under the Bond that is not currently listed on Schedule A hereto may be added to this Agreement by a written amendment. The Funds hereby consent to additional registered investment companies advised by BlackRock Advisors, LLC and its affiliates being named as an insured under the Bond and the Agreement.

  1. Limitation of Liability for Massachusetts business trusts. The Declaration of Trust for each Fund listed on Schedule A hereto that is organized as a Massachusetts business trust (each, a "Massachusetts Trust") is on file with the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This Agreement is executed on behalf of such Massachusetts Trusts by the Trust's Chief Executive Officer and not individually and the obligations imposed upon each Massachusetts Trust by this Agreement are not binding upon any of the Massachusetts Trust's respective Board members, officers or shareholders individually but are binding only upon the assets and property of such Massachusetts Trust.

  2. No Assignment. This Agreement is not assignable.

  3. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts which together shall constitute a single instrument.

58

  1. Governing Law. The Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey.

  2. Notices. All Notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be addressed to the appropriate Fund at P.O. Box 9011, Princeton, NJ 08543-9011.

59

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Fund has caused the foregoing instrument to be executed by their duly authorized officers, all as of the day and the year first above written.
