None of the Directors received any pension or retirement benefits. Under the deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) approved by each Trust’s Board, Independent Directors may elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of their annual compensation. As of January 1, 2003, the Board elected to require its Independent Directors to defer a portion of their annual compensation pursuant to the Plan. Deferred amounts earn an approximate return as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in common shares of certain BlackRock closed-end Trusts selected by the Directors. This has approximately the same economic effect for the Directors as if the Directors had invested the deferred amounts in such Trusts. The Plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of the Trust. Each Trust may, however, elect to invest in common shares of those Trusts selected by the Directors in order to match its deferred compensation obligations.
The Independent Directors deferred at least $30,000 of their $190,000 base fee pursuant to the Plan. Also, members of the Audit Committee of the Fund Complex deferred all of the $20,000 per annum fee they received for their services on the Audit Committee pursuant to the Plan.
None of the officers of the Trusts received any compensation, including pension or retirement benefits, from the Trusts for such period. Messrs. Schlosstein, Kapito, Gabbay, Klingert, Kong, Gary, Tritto, Battista, Kindelan and Ms. Ackerley, officers of the Trusts, are also affiliated with the Advisor or its affiliates, as such, they receive compensation from the Advisor or one of its affiliates. Under the terms of the investment advisory agreements a portion of Mr. Battista’s compensation was reimbursed by the Trusts to the extent of his working time as chief compliance officer of the Trusts.
The Directors have adopted a new compensation structure for 2006. Under the new compensation structure, the Trusts anticipate that each Director will be compensated as follows:
The Directors believe each Director should have a beneficial investment in the BlackRock closed-end Trusts. The Directors allocate their investments among the 56 active BlackRock closed-end Trusts based on their own investment needs. The table attached at Appendix E to this Proxy Statement sets forth the dollar range of equity securities beneficially owned and share equivalents held by each Director in all of the BlackRock closed-end Trusts represented in this Proxy Statement as of February 28, 2006.
* WHAT VOTE IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE THIS PROPOSAL?
The affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares present for each Trust at the Annual Meeting at which a quorum is present and entitled to vote on a Director is necessary to approve the respective Director nominated under Proposal 1 for each respective Trust.
* HOW DO THE DIRECTORS RECOMMEND I VOTE ON THIS PROPOSAL?
THE BOARD OF EACH TRUST HAS APPROVED SUBMITTING THIS PROPOSAL TO SHAREHOLDERS OF EACH TRUST. THE BOARD OF EACH TRUST, INCLUDING THE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” EACH OF THE DIRECTORS NOMINATED UNDER THIS PROPOSAL.
* * * * *
* SECOND PROPOSAL: FOR EACH OF BHY, BPS AND BSD, TO AMEND ITS DECLARATION OF TRUST TO EXPAND THE AUTHORITY OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES
The Declaration of Trust of each of BHY, BPS and BSD (the “Proposal 2 Trusts”) currently permits the following: “The Trustees may designate an executive committee which shall have all the authority of the entire Board of Trustees except such committee cannot declare dividends and cannot authorize removal of a trustee or any merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all of the assets of the Trust.”
The Directors believe that consistency among the Declarations of Trust for the Trusts organized as Delaware statutory trusts generally enhances efficiency in administering the various Trusts. To this end, the Directors believe that creating a uniform provision regarding delegation and committees for all of the Delaware statutory trusts is in the best interests of the shareholders of the Trusts, including the Proposal 2 Trusts. In order to achieve uniformity in the BlackRock closed-end Trusts family, it is necessary for each Proposal 2 Trust to revise the provision to allow as follows: “The Trustees may designate one or more committees which shall have all or such lesser portion of the authority of the entire Board of Trustees as the Trustees shall determine from time to time, except to the extent action by the entire Board of Trustees or particular Trustees is required by the 1940 Act.” The Directors believe that this amendment would increase the efficiency of the operation of the Proposal 2 Trusts, primarily by permitting the Executive Committee to declare dividends.
The affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of a Proposal 2 Trust is necessary to approve Proposal 2 for the respective Trust. Holders of common shares and preferred shares vote together as a single class with respect to this proposal.
THE BOARD OF EACH PROPOSAL 2 TRUST HAS APPROVED SUBMITTING THIS PROPOSAL TO SHAREHOLDERS OF THE RESPECTIVE PROPOSAL 2 TRUST. THE BOARD OF EACH PROPOSAL 2 TRUST, INCLUDING THE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THIS PROPOSAL.
* * * * *
* THIRD PROPOSAL: FOR EACH OF THE PROPOSAL 3 TRUSTS, TO AMEND ITS RESPECTIVE CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION OR STATEMENT OF PREFERENCES, AS APPROPRIATE, TO REVISE THE LANGUAGE REGARDING PREFERRED SHARES TO ALLOW THE TRUSTS TO FOLLOW THE MOST RECENT GUIDELINES OF S&P, MOODY’S AND/OR FITCH, AS APPROPRIATE, FOR CREDIT RATING CRITERIA IN EFFECT FROM TIME TO TIME TO MAINTAIN A “AAA” RATING ON PREFERRED SHARES
The Certificate of Designation or Statement of Preferences, as appropriate, of each of RAA, RFA, RNJ, RNY, BKN, BFC, BRM, BLN, BSD, BRF and BMT (the “Proposal 3 Trusts”) currently imposes credit rating standards that were in effect for S&P, Moody’s and/or Fitch, as appropriate, at the time the preferred shares were initially offered. In order to keep current the credit rating standards applicable to Proposal 3 Trusts, it is necessary to allow the Proposal 3 Trusts to follow the most recent credit rating criteria of S&P, Moody’s and/or Fitch required to maintain a “AAA” rating on preferred shares. Revising such language will allow the Proposal 3 Trusts to follow the preferred share testing standards as the standards change over time. If the Third Proposal is approved by the shareholders of a Proposal 3 Trust, the Certificate of Designation or Statement of Preferences, as appropriate, of such Trust will be amended, accordingly.
12
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding preferred shares of a Proposal 3 Trust is necessary to approve Proposal 3 for the respective Trust.
THE BOARD OF EACH PROPOSAL 3 TRUST HAS APPROVED SUBMITTING THIS PROPOSAL TO SHAREHOLDERS OF THE RESPECTIVE PROPOSAL 3 TRUST. THE BOARD OF EACH PROPOSAL 3 TRUST, INCLUDING THE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THIS PROPOSAL.

FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT VOTING AND THE ANNUAL MEETING
The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by each Trust in proportion to the amount of proxies solicited on behalf of a Trust bears to the total proxies solicited on behalf of all of the Trusts. In addition, certain officers, directors and employees of each of the Trusts and the Advisor, located at 100 Bellevue Parkway, Wilmington, Delaware 19809 (none of whom will receive additional compensation therefor) may solicit proxies by telephone or mail.

APPENDIX C
JOINT AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER
OF
THE BLACKROCK CLOSED-END FUNDS
(the “Fund” or “Funds”)
AS APPROVED BY THE BOARDS OF TRUSTEES/DIRECTORS
FEBRUARY, 20061
I. THE MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE
Each Trust shall have an audit committee (the “Committee”) of its Board of Directors/Trustees (the “Board”). The Committee will be composed of at least three members of the Board, each of whom is independent (i.e. not an “interested person” of the Fund, as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940). No member of the Committee shall directly or indirectly receive any compensation from the Fund, or any subsidiary thereof, if applicable, except compensation for services as a member of the Fund’s Board or a committee of the Board.2 Members shall have no relationships with the Fund or its investment adviser, administrator or custodian that may interfere with the exercise of their independence from management of the Fund. The members and the Committee chair shall be elected by the full Board.
Each member shall be “financially literate” as the Board interprets such qualification in its business judgment. At least one member shall have accounting or related financial management expertise, as the Board interprets such qualification in its business judgment. The Board shall determine annually whether any member of the Committee is an “audit committee financial expert” (“ACFE”) as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR. The Board may presume that an ACFE has the requisite accounting or related financial management expertise. The designation of a person as an ACFE shall not impose any greater responsibility or liability on that person than the responsibility or liability imposed on such person as a member of the Committee.
In the event a member simultaneously serves on the audit committees of more than three public companies, the Board shall determine whether such simultaneous service would impair the ability of such member to effectively serve on the Fund’s audit committee. The Board has determined that simultaneous service on the Committee of each Fund shall be deemed to be equivalent to service on the audit committee of a single public company for purposes of this requirement and that such service does not impair the ability of a member to effectively serve on the Committee of any single Fund.
II. PURPOSE OF THE COMMITTEE
The purpose of the Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities relating to the accounting and financial reporting policies and practices of the Fund, including:
| |
• | the integrity of the Fund’s financial statements;
|
• | the Fund’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;
|
• | the qualifications and independence of the Fund’s independent auditors;
|
• | the performance of the Fund’s internal audit function provided by its investment advisor, administrator, pricing agent and other service providers; and
|
• | preparing for each Fund the report required to be included in its annual proxy statement, if any, by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
| | |
| |
| |
1 | This Joint Audit Committee Charter, if adopted, supercedes and replaces all prior versions that may have been adopted from time to time. |
| |
2 | For this purpose, compensation includes any compensation paid by a Fund or a subsidiary for services to a law firm, accounting firm, consulting firm, investment bank or financial advisory firm in which the Committee member is a partner, member, executive officer or holds a similar position. |
C-1

| 2. | discuss policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management; |

| | |
| 4. | review and evaluate any issues raised by the independent accountants or management regarding the accounting or financial reporting policies and practices of the Fund, its internal controls, and, as appropriate, the internal controls of certain service providers and management’s response; evaluate the independent auditor’s qualifications and performance (including the performance of the lead partner); resolve disagreements between management and the independent accountants regarding financial reporting; |
| | |
| 5. | establish procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by the Fund relating to accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters, and the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of the Fund and its affiliates and service providers of concerns about accounting or auditing matters pertaining to the Fund, and to address reports from attorneys or auditors of possible violations of federal or state law or fiduciary duty; |
| | |
| 6. | authorize and oversee investigations into any matters within the Committee’s scope of responsibilities or as specifically delegated to the Committee by the Board; |

| | | |
| | • | all fees for audited and non-audit services provided to the Fund’s investment adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Fund’s investment advisor; |
| | | |
| | • | the firm’s internal quality-control procedures; |
| | | |
| | • | any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within the preceding five years, respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the firm, and any steps taken to deal with any such issues; and |
| | | |
| 2. | As noted above, the Committee shall ensure receipt from the independent accountants at least annually of a formal written statement delineating all the relationships between them and the Fund, consistent with Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1; |
| | |
| 3. | As noted above, the Committee shall ensure receipt of the communications required by SAS 61, as amended; |
| | |
| 4. | prepare and approve the audit committee report required by Item 306 of Regulation S-K for proxy statements relating to the election of directors/trustees; and |
| | |

E. Other
| | |
| 1. | take such actions as the Committee deems necessary or desirable to fulfill its purpose as described above. |
