1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
SECURITY VALUATION
Each Funds investments are valued at fair value each day that the Funds listing exchange is open. U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The BlackRock Global Valuation Methodologies Committee (the Global Valuation Committee) provides oversight of the valuation of investments for the Funds. The investments of each Fund are valued pursuant to policies and procedures developed by the Global Valuation Committee and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the Board).
| Fixed income investments are valued at the last available bid price received from independent pricing services. In determining the value of a fixed income investment, pricing services may use certain information 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. |
| Open-end U.S. mutual funds are valued at that days published net asset value (NAV). |
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 fair value of such investment or if a price is not available, the investment will be valued based upon other available factors deemed relevant by the Global Valuation Committee, in accordance with policies approved by the Board. These factors include but are not limited to (i) attributes specific to the investment; (ii) the principal market for the investment; (iii) the customary participants in the principal market for the investment; (iv) data assumptions by market participants for the investment, if reasonably available; (v) quoted prices for similar investments in active markets; and (vi) other factors, such as future cash flows, interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and/or other default rates. Valuations based on such factors are reported to the Board on a quarterly basis.
The Global Valuation Committee employs various methods for calibrating valuation approaches for investments where an active market does not exist, including regular due diligence of the Companys pricing vendors, a regular review of key inputs and assumptions, transactional back-testing or disposition analysis to compare unrealized gains and losses to realized gains and losses, reviews of missing or stale prices and large movements in market values, and reviews of market related activity.
Fair value pricing could result in a difference between the prices used to calculate a Funds net asset value and the prices used by the Funds underlying index, which in turn could result in a difference between the Funds performance and the performance of the Funds underlying index.
Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of financial instruments. Inputs may be based on independent market data (observable inputs) or they may be internally developed (unobservable inputs). These inputs are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes. The level of a value determined for a financial instrument within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The categorization of a value determined for a financial instrument within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of the instrument and does not necessarily correspond to the Funds perceived risk of that instrument. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
| Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not considered to be active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as exchange rates, financing terms, interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs; and |
| Level 3 Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, including the Funds assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments. |
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Companys policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period.
The following table summarizes the value of each of the Funds investments according to the fair value hierarchy as of July 31, 2012. The breakdown of each Funds investments into major categories is disclosed in its respective schedule of investments.

2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Each Fund may invest its positive cash balances in certain money market funds managed by BlackRock Fund Advisors (BFA), the Funds investment adviser, or an affiliate. BFA is a California corporation owned by BlackRock, Inc. (BlackRock).
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. is the largest stockholder of BlackRock and is considered to be an affiliate of the Funds for 1940 Act purposes.
3. LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES
Each Fund may lend its investment securities to approved borrowers, such as brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges and maintains with the Fund collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government. The initial collateral received by each Fund is required to have a value of at least 102% of the current value of the loaned securities plus the interest accrued on such securities, if any, for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities. The collateral is maintained thereafter, at a value equal to at least 100% of the current value of the securities on loan plus accrued interest, if any. The risks of securities lending include the risk that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due. Any securities lending cash collateral may be reinvested in certain short-term instruments either directly on behalf of a fund or through one or more joint accounts or money market funds, including those managed by BFA or its affiliates. Each Fund could suffer a loss if the value of an investment purchased with cash collateral falls below the value of the cash collateral received.
As of July 31, 2012, any securities on loan were collateralized by cash. The cash collateral received was invested in money market funds managed by BFA.
