Effective March 1, 2010, the following changes are made to the Prospectus of each Fund, except the BlackRock Long Duration Bond Portfolio, BlackRock International Index Fund, BlackRock S&P 500 Index Fund and BlackRock Small Cap Index Fund.

The following information supplements and, to the extent inconsistent therewith, supersedes the disclosure in the section captioned “Account Information”:

The Distributor currently pays dealers a sales concession of 1.00% of the purchase price of Investor C Shares from its own resources at the time of sale. The Distributor pays the annual Investor C Shares distribution fee and the annual Investor C Shares service fee as an ongoing concession and as a shareholder servicing fee, respectively, to dealers for Investor C Shares held for over a year and normally retains the Investor C Shares distribution fee and service fee during the first year after purchase. Under certain circumstances (including for certain qualified employee benefit plans), the Distributor will pay the full Investor C Shares distribution fee and service fee to dealers beginning in the first year after purchase in lieu of paying the sales concession.

Shareholders should retain this Supplement for future reference.
