Additional Information Regarding Proposal No. 2

The Proposal: To approve a change in the classification of certain iShares Fund’s investment objectives from a “fundamental” investment policy to a “non-fundamental” investment policy. The proposal is applicable to 30 iShares Funds (see last bullet for a complete list).

• Each iShares Fund is designed to track an underlying index provided by an index provider. Additional information regarding the underlying index and index provider for each iShares Fund may be found in the current prospectus for each Fund, available on the internet at www.ishares.com or by telephone at 1-800-ISHARES (1-800-474-2737).

• 149 existing iShares Funds have investment policies that are deemed “non-fundamental” and most new iShares Funds are launched as “non-fundamental” investment policy funds.

• 30 existing iShares Funds — some of the oldest funds in the iShares Fund complex — have a “fundamental” investment policy.

• The proposal is meant to promote consistency across all 179 iShares Funds.

• If the proposal is approved, each of the 30 iShares Funds will continue to be managed subject to the same investment objective, strategies, and policies expressed in each iShares Fund’s current prospectus.

• A fundamental investment policy is a policy that cannot be changed without approval of shareholders of a particular Fund through a shareholder proxy effort.

• A non-fundamental investment policy is a policy that can be changed without shareholder approval but requires the approval of the Board of Trustees/Directors of the iShares Funds (the “iShares Board”).

• The proposal is designed to provide Barclays Global Fund Advisors (the “Advisor”), each iShares Fund’s investment adviser, and the iShares Board with the flexibility to respond to changing conditions in a manner they deem to be in the best interests of a particular iShares Fund and its shareholders without incurring the cost of a proxy solicitation.

• If the proposal is approved, it will not result in changes to an iShares Fund’s current investment objective unless changes are approved by the iShares Board at some point in the future.

• The Advisor does not intend to alter the way in which it manages any of the iShares Funds as a result of this proposal, and does not expect that the proposal will affect the investment risk associated with the Funds.

• The Board Trustees/Directors of the iShares Funds has unanimously approved this proposal and recommends that shareholders of these funds vote FOR the change as presented in the proxy statement.

• The following 30 Funds are impacted by the proposal:

iShares Russell 1000 Index Fund	iShares MSCI Australia Index Fund
iShares Russell Midcap Growth Index Fund	iShares MSCI Brazil Index Fund
