2 | ANNUAL REPORT | JULY 31, 2009 |
|
|
The past 12 months reveal two distinct market backdrops — one of extreme investor pessimism and decided weakness, and another of cautious optimism and nascent signs of recovery. The first half of the period was characterized by the former, as the global financial crisis erupted into the worst recession in decades. Daily headlines recounted universal macroeconomic deterioration, financial sector casualties, volatile swings in global equity markets, and unprecedented government intervention that included widespread (and globally coordinated) monetary and quantitative easing by central banks and large-scale fiscal stimuli. Sentiment improved noticeably in March 2009, however, on the back of new program announcements by the US Treasury Department and Federal Reserve, as well as generally stronger-than-expected economic data in a few key areas, including retail sales, business and consumer confidence, manufacturing and housing.
In this environment, US equities contended with extraordinary volatility, posting steep declines through mid-March 2009 before going on a three-month rally that largely negated year-to-date losses. Late in the period, investor enthusiasm waned and a correction ensued for several weeks, mostly as a result of profit taking and portfolio rebalancing, as opposed to a change in the economic outlook. Equities rallied once again as the period drew to a close, resulting in positive year-to-date returns for all major indexes. The experience in international markets was similar to that in the United States, though performance was generally more extreme both on the decline and on the upturn. Notably, emerging markets, which lagged most developed regions through the downturn, reassumed leadership in 2009 as these areas of the globe have generally seen a stronger acceleration in economic recovery.
In fixed income markets, while the flight to quality remained a prevalent theme, relatively attractive yields and distressed valuations, alongside a more favorable macro environment, eventually captured investor attention, leading to a sharp recovery in non-Treasury assets. This has been particularly evident in the high yield sector, which has firmly outpaced all other taxable asset classes since the start of 2009. At the same time, the municipal bond market enjoyed a strong return after the exceptional market volatility of 2008, buoyed by a combination of attractive valuations, robust retail investor demand and a slowdown in forced selling. Direct aid to state and local governments via the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 has also lent support to municipal bonds.

Trust Summary as of July 31, 2009 | BlackRock California Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. |
|
Investment Objective |
BlackRock California Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (RAA) (the “Trust”) seeks to provide high current income which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from regular federal and California income tax consistent with preservation of capital. No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.
|
Performance |
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2009, the Trust returned (0.93)% based on market price and 1.28% based on net asset value (“NAV”). For the same period, the closed-end Lipper California Municipal Debt Funds category posted an average return of (3.92)% based on market price and (5.13)% on a NAV basis. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which widened during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. Duration positioning was neutral for most of the period. The majority of the Trust’s outperformance was derived from a tightening in credit spreads. Cash and short-term investment reserves ranged from 1% to 13% of assets under management during the period. Overall, the cash position was beneficial to performance as it lowered portfolio duration and enhanced the Trust’s yield as a portion of the cash reserves was invested in higher-yielding variable-rate demand notes. Along with attractive borrowing costs, the portfolio’s accrual permitted an increase in dividends in June. Our strategy is to pursue a balanced approach to returns, continue to bolster current yield and commit cash reserves when research uncovers appropriate opportunities. Credit fundamentals warrant monitoring in the current weak economic environment, especially in California, considering budgetary challenges. Management is alert to improve quality as opportunities arise.

Investment Objective |
BlackRock California Municipal Income Trust (BFZ) (the “Trust”) seeks to provide high current income which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from regular federal income tax and California income taxes. No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.
|
Performance |
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2009, the Trust returned (4.81)% based on market price and (2.36)% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper California Municipal Debt Funds category posted an average return of (3.92)% based on market price and (5.13)% on a NAV basis. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust moved from a premium to NAV to a discount by period-end, which accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. The Trust’s duration positioning was slightly above neutral for most of the period. The Trust’s outperformance based on NAV was derived from a tightening in credit spreads, although zero-coupon positions did contribute negatively as spreads for these structures widened. Along with attractive borrowing costs, the portfolio accrual permitted an increase in dividends in June. Our strategy is to pursue a balanced approach to returns, continue to bolster current yield and commit cash reserves when research uncovers appropriate opportunities. Credit fundamentals warrant monitoring in the current weak economic environment, especially in California, considering budgetary challenges. Management is alert to improve quality as opportunities arise.

Trust Summary as of July 31, 2009 | BlackRock Florida Municipal 2020 Term Trust |
|
Investment Objective |
BlackRock Florida Municipal 2020 Term Trust (BFO) (the “Trust”) seeks to provide current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax and Florida intangible personal property taxes and to return $15.00 per share (the initial public offering price) on or about December 31, 2020. No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.
|
Performance |
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2009, the Trust returned 3.95%, based on market price and (0.48)%, based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper Florida Municipal Debt Funds category posted an average return of 7.14% based on market price and 1.51% on a NAV basis. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. Although the Trust benefited from a declining interest rate environment during the period, Florida was a weak performer among the states, with only Michigan and Ohio posting lower returns, which hampered performance. Sector allocation was also an important component to performance. In particular, the Trust’s exposure to high yield bonds and the health sector, which significantly underperformed, detracted from results. Low short-term rates, however, resulted in increased income to the Trust from leverage, which allowed for a dividend increase beginning with the July 1, 2009 distribution.

|
|
Investment Objective |
|
BlackRock Investment Quality Municipal Income Trust (RFA) (the “Trust”) seeks to provide current income which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from regular federal income tax and to provide an exemption from Florida intangible personal property taxes consistent with preservation of capital. Effective September 16, 2008, BlackRock Florida Investment Quality Municipal Trust was renamed BlackRock Investment Quality Municipal Income Trust. No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.

Performance |
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2009, the Trust returned (1.93)% based on market price and (3.68)% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper General Municipal Debt Funds (Leveraged) category posted an average return of 2.20% based on market price and (2.40)% on a NAV basis. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. Sector allocation played an important role in determining the Trust’s performance during the period. Spread products, such as health care, tax increment and corporate-backed bonds, underperformed significantly, as the economic downturn continued to add more stress on the fundamental credit qualities of these sectors. The Trust’s holdings in these segments, therefore, detracted from performance. Certain municipal bonds that are issued for a private purpose such as certain housing bonds may be subject to the alternative minimum tax (“AMT”). These bonds typically have higher yields than non-AMT bonds to compensate for the potential tax treatment of these issues. Exposure to AMT bonds also detracted from results, as these issues underperformed amid significant spread widening during the 12 months.

Trust Summary as of July 31, 2009 | BlackRock Municipal Income Investment Trust |
|
|
Investment Objective |
|
BlackRock Municipal Income Investment Trust (BBF) (the “Trust”) seeks to provide current income which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from regular federal income tax and Florida intangible personal property tax. Effective September 18, 2008, BlackRock Florida Municipal Income Trust was renamed BlackRock Municipal Income Investment Trust. No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.
|
Performance |
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2009, the Trust returned (1.46)% based on market price and (2.57)% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper General Municipal Debt Funds (Leveraged) category posted an average return of 2.20% based on market price and (2.40)% on a NAV basis. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. Sector allocation played an important role in determining how the Trust performed during the reporting period. The Trust was significantly overweight in pre-refunded securities in the one- to five-year maturity range. This enhanced performance as the yield curve steepened. Conversely, spread products, such as health care, land increment and corporate-backed bonds, significantly underperformed, as the economic downturn continued to add more stress on the fundamental credit quality for these sectors. The Trust’s holdings in these segments, therefore, detracted from performance.

Trust Summary as of July 31, 2009 | BlackRock New Jersey Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. |
|
Investment Objective |
BlackRock New Jersey Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (RNJ) (the “Trust”) seeks to provide high current income which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from regular federal income tax and New Jersey gross income tax consistent with preservation of capital. No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.
|
Performance |
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2009, the Trust returned 4.01% based on market price and (1.09)% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper New Jersey Municipal Debt Funds category posted an average return of 4.58% based on market price and 1.31% on a NAV basis. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust moved from a discount to NAV to a premium by period-end, which accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. Sector allocation played an important role in the Trust’s performance during the period. Spread products, such as health care and corporate-backed bonds, underperformed significantly, as the economic downturn continued to add more stress on the fundamental credit qualities of these sectors. The Trust’s holdings in these segments, therefore, detracted from performance. Certain municipal bonds that are issued for a private purpose such as certain housing bonds may be subject to the AMT. These bonds typically have higher yields than non-AMT bonds to compensate for the potential tax treatment of these issues. Exposure to AMT bonds also detracted from results, as spreads widened out significantly during the 12 months. During the 12 months, Trust management maintained high cash allocations in an effort to reduce volatility and ensure that ample cash was available to take advantage of potential opportunities in the new-issue market. The Trust’s cash balance lowered portfolio duration, which was beneficial; however, it also held the yield down slightly as the money was invested in lower-yielding short-term investments, a negative factor.

Trust Summary as of July 31, 2009 | BlackRock New York Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. |
|
Investment Objective |
BlackRock New York Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (RNY) (the “Trust”) seeks to provide high current income which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from regular federal income taxes and New York State and New York City income tax consistent with preservation of capital. No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.
|
Performance |
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2009, the Trust returned 4.81% based on market price and 2.71% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper New York Municipal Debt Funds category posted an average return of 1.84% based on market price and (2.86)% on a NAV basis. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s discount to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. Performance was positively affected by a slightly-above-average distribution rate, as well as the Trust’s positioning in longer-dated maturities. The one-year period comprised two separate — and major — fixed income market moves. The end of 2008 witnessed severe dislocations whereby, as a result of illiquidity and credit concerns, municipal bonds were treated as risk assets and traded at historically-wide spreads versus Treasuries. The second half of the period saw a return of liquidity and more normal demand metrics, accompanied by significant spread compression and yield curve flattening. The Trust outperformed during the latter time due to its overweight in longer-dated bonds, its barbell credit structure, its slightly longer duration and its participation in new-issue deals, which were coming at significant discounts to secondary market levels. We also used the new-issue market to increase the Trust’s exposure to bonds that have retail appeal, as these bonds should benefit from an environment with favorable municipal supply and demand factors.

Trust Summary as of July 31, 2009 | BlackRock New York Municipal Income Trust |
|
Investment Objective |
BlackRock New York Municipal Income Trust (BNY) (the “Trust”) seeks to provide high current income which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from regular federal income tax and New York State and New York City personal income taxes. No assurance can be given that the Trust’s investment objective will be achieved.
|
Performance |
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2009, the Trust returned (1.44)% based on market price and (1.28)% based on NAV. For the same period, the closed-end Lipper New York Municipal Debt Funds category posted an average return of 1.84% based on market price and (2.86)% on a NAV basis. All returns reflect reinvestment of dividends. The Trust’s premium to NAV, which narrowed during the period, accounts for the difference between performance based on price and performance based on NAV. Performance was positively affected by a slightly-above-average distribution rate, as well as the Trust’s positioning in longer-dated maturities. The one-year period comprised two separate — and major — fixed income market moves. The end of 2008 witnessed severe dislocations whereby, as a result of illiquidity and credit concerns, municipal bonds were treated as risk assets and traded at historically-wide spreads versus Treasuries. The second half of the period saw a return of liquidity and more normal demand metrics, accompanied by significant spread compression and yield curve flattening. The Trust outperformed during the latter time due to its overweight in longer-dated bonds, its barbell credit structure, its slightly longer duration and its participation in new-issue deals, which were coming at significant discounts to secondary market levels. We also used the new-issue market to increase the Trust’s exposure to bonds that have retail appeal, as these bonds should benefit from an environment with favorable municipal supply and demand factors.

The Trusts may utilize leverage to seek to enhance the yield and NAV of their Common Shares. However, these objectives cannot be achieved in all interest rate environments.
To leverage, the Trusts issue Preferred Shares, which pay dividends at prevailing short-term interest rates, and invest the proceeds in long-term municipal bonds. In general, the concept of leveraging is based on the premise that the cost of assets to be obtained from leverage will be based on short-term interest rates, which normally will be lower than the income earned by each Trust on its longer-term portfolio investments. To the extent that the total assets of the Trust (including the assets obtained from leverage) are invested in higher-yielding portfolio investments, the Trust’s Common Shareholders will benefit from the incremental yield.
To illustrate these concepts, assume a Trust’s Common Shares capitalization is $100 million and it issues Preferred Shares for an additional $50 million, creating a total value of $150 million available for investment in long-term municipal bonds. If prevailing short-term interest rates are 3% and long-term interest rates are 6%, the yield curve has a strongly positive slope. In this case, the Trust pays dividends on the $50 million of Preferred Shares based on the lower short-term interest rates. At the same time, the securities purchased by the Trust with assets received from the Preferred Shares issuance earn the income based on long-term interest rates. In this case, the dividends paid to Preferred Shareholders are significantly lower than the income earned on the Trust’s long-term investments, and therefore the Common Shareholders are the beneficiaries of the incremental net income.
Conversely, if prevailing short-term interest rates rise above long-term interest rates of 6%, the yield curve has a negative slope. In this case, the Trust pays dividends on the higher short-term interest rates whereas the Trust’s total portfolio earns income based on lower long-term interest rates. If short-term interest rates rise, narrowing the differential between short-term and long-term interest rates, the incremental net income pickup on the Common Shares will be reduced or eliminated completely.
Furthermore, the value of the Trust’s portfolio investments generally varies inversely with the direction of long-term interest rates, although other factors can influence the value of portfolio investments. In contrast, the redemption value of the Trust’s Preferred Shares does not fluctuate in relation to interest rates. As a result, changes in interest rates can influence the Trust’s NAV positively or negatively in addition to the impact on Trust performance from leverage from Preferred Shares discussed above.
The Trusts may also, from time to time, leverage their assets through the use of tender option bond (“TOB”) programs, as described in Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements. TOB investments generally will provide the Trusts with economic benefits in periods of declining short-term interest rates, but expose the Trusts to risks during periods of rising short-term interest rates similar to those associated with Preferred Shares issued by the Trusts, as described above. Additionally, fluctuations in the market value of municipal bonds deposited into the TOB trust may adversely affect the Trusts’ NAV per share.
The use of leverage may enhance opportunities for increased returns to the Trusts and Common Shareholders, but as described above, it also creates risks as short- or long-term interest rates fluctuate. Leverage also will generally cause greater changes in the Trusts’ NAV, market price and dividend rate than a comparable portfolio without leverage. If the income derived from securities purchased with assets received from leverage exceeds the cost of leverage, the Trusts’ net income will be greater than if leverage had not been used. Conversely, if the income from the securities purchased is not sufficient to cover the cost of leverage, the Trusts’ net income will be less than if leverage had not been used, and therefore the amount available for distribution to Common Shareholders will be reduced. The Trusts may be required to sell portfolio securities at inopportune times or at distressed values in order to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to the use of leverage or as required by the terms of leverage instruments, which may cause the Trusts to incur losses. The use of leverage may limit the Trusts’ ability to invest in certain types of securities or use certain types of hedging strategies, such as in the case of certain restrictions imposed by ratings agencies that rate preferred shares issued by a Trust. The Trusts will incur expenses in connection with the use of leverage, all of which are borne by the holders of the Common Shares and may reduce returns on the Common Shares.
Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, each Trust is permitted to issue Preferred Shares in an amount of up to 50% of its total managed assets at the time of issuance. Under normal circumstances, each Trust anticipates that the total economic leverage from Preferred Shares and TOBs will not exceed 50% of its total managed assets at the time such leverage is incurred. As of July 31, 2009, the Trusts had economic leverage from Preferred Shares and/or TOBs as a percentage of their total managed assets as follows:

The Trusts may invest in various derivative instruments, including financial futures contracts and swaps, as specified in Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements, which constitute forms of economic leverage. Such instruments are used to obtain exposure to a market without owning or taking physical custody of securities or to hedge market and/or interest rate risks. Such derivative instruments involve risks, including the imperfect correlation between the value of a derivative instrument and the underlying asset, possible default of the counterparty to the transaction and illiquidity of the derivative instrument. The Trusts’ ability to successfully use a derivative instrument depends on the investment advisor’s ability to accurately predict pertinent market movements, which cannot be assured. The use of derivative instruments may result in losses greater than if they had not been used, may require a Trust to sell or purchase portfolio securities at inopportune times or for distressed values, may limit the amount of appreciation a Trust can realize on an investment or may cause a Trust to hold a security that it might otherwise sell. The Trusts’ investments in these instruments are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

• | Effective August 1, 2008, the Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair values and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows: | |
|
| |
| • | Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical securities |
|
|
|
| • | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
| • | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
|
|
|
| The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements. | |
|

• | Effective August 1, 2008, the Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair values and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows: | |
|
|
|
| • | Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical securities |
|
|
|
| • | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
| • | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
|
|
|
| The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements. | |

• | Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair values and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows: | |
|
|
|
| • | Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical securities |
|
|
|
| • | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
| • | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.
The following table summarizes the inputs used as of July 31, 2009 in determining the fair valuation of the Trust’s investments:

• | Effective August 1, 2008, the Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair values and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows: | |
|
|
|
| • | Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical securities |
|
|
|
| • | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
| • | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.
The following table summarizes the inputs used as of July 31, 2009 in determining the fair valuation of the Trust’s investments:

• | Effective August 1, 2008, the Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair values and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows: | |
|
|
|
| • | Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical securities |
|
|
|
| • | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
| • | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
|
|
|
| The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements. | |
|

• | Effective August 1, 2008, the Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair values and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows: | |
|
|
|
| • | Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical securities |
|
|
|
| • | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
| • | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.
The following table summarizes the inputs used as of July 31, 2009 in determining the fair valuation of the Trust’s investments:

• | Effective August 1, 2008, the Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair values and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows: | |
|
|
|
| • | Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical securities |
|
|
|
| • | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
| • | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.

• | Effective August 1, 2008, the Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair values and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows: | |
|
|
|
| • | Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical securities |
|
|
|
| • | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
| • | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.
The following table summarizes the inputs used as of July 31, 2009 in determining the fair valuation of the Trust’s investments:

• | Effective August 1, 2008, the Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair values and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments, which are as follows: | |
|
|
|
| • | Level 1 — price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical securities |
|
|
|
| • | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
| • | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Trust’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements.
The following table summarizes the inputs used as of July 31, 2009 in determining the fair valuation of the Trust’s investments:

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies:
BlackRock California Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (“California Investment Quality”), BlackRock New Jersey Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (“New Jersey Investment Quality”) and BlackRock New York Investment Quality Municipal Trust Inc. (“New York Investment Quality”) are organized as Maryland corporations. BlackRock Investment Quality Municipal Income Trust (formerly BlackRock Florida Investment Quality Municipal Trust) (“Investment Quality”) was organized as a Massachusetts business trust. California Investment Quality, Investment Quality, New Jersey Investment Quality and New York Investment Quality are herein referred to as the Investment Quality Trusts. BlackRock California Municipal Income Trust (“California Income”), BlackRock Municipal Income Investment Trust (formerly BlackRock Florida Municipal Income Trust) (“Municipal Income Investment”), BlackRock New Jersey Municipal Income Trust (“New Jersey Income”), BlackRock New York Municipal Income Trust (“New York Income”) (collectively, the “Income Trusts”) and BlackRock Florida Municipal 2020 Term Trust (“Florida 2020”) are organized as Delaware statutory trusts. The Investment Quality Trusts, Income Trusts and Florida 2020 are referred to herein collectively as the “Trusts.” The Trusts are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as non-diversified, closed-end management investment companies. The Trusts’ financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which may require the use of management accruals and estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The Boards of Directors and the Boards of Trustees of the Trusts are referred to throughout this report as the “Board of Trustees” or the “Board.” The Trusts determine and make available for publication the net asset value of their Common Shares on a daily basis.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trusts:
Valuation of Investments: Municipal investments (including commitments to purchase such investments on a “when-issued” basis) are valued on the basis of prices provided by dealers or pricing services selected under the supervision of each Trust’s Board. In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transactions in comparable investments and information with respect to various relationships between investments. Swap agreements are valued by utilizing quotes received daily by each Trust’s pricing service or through brokers, which are derived using daily swap curves and trades of underlying securities. Financial futures contracts traded on exchanges are valued at their last price. Short-term securities with maturities less than 60 days may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value each business day.
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 market value of such investment, the investment will be valued by a method approved by each Trust’s Board as reflecting fair value (“Fair Value Assets”). When determining the price for Fair Value Assets, the investment advisor and/or the sub-advisor seeks to determine the price that each Trust might reasonably expect to receive from the current sale of that asset in an arm’s-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon all available factors that the investment advisor and/or sub-advisor deems relevant. The pricing of all Fair Value Assets is subsequently reported to the Board or a committee thereof.
Forward Commitments and When-Issued Delayed Delivery Securities: The Trusts may purchase securities on a when-issued basis and may purchase or sell securities on a forward commitment basis. Settlement of such transactions normally occurs within a month or more after the purchase or sale commitment is made. The Trusts may purchase securities under such conditions only with the intention of actually acquiring them, but may enter into a separate agreement to sell the securities before the settlement date. Since the value of securities purchased may fluctuate prior to settlement, the Trusts may be required to pay more at settlement than the security is worth. In addition, the purchaser is not entitled to any of the interest earned prior to settlement. When purchasing a security on a delayed-delivery basis the Trusts assume the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. In the event of default by the counterparty, the Trusts’ maximum amount of loss is the unrealized gain of the commitment.
Municipal Bonds Transferred to Tender Option Bond Trusts: The Trusts leverage their assets through the use of tender option bond trusts (“TOBs”). A TOB is established by a third party sponsor forming a special purpose entity, into which one or more funds, or an agent on behalf of the funds, transfers municipal bonds. Other funds managed by the investment advisor may also contribute municipal bonds to a TOB into which a Trust has contributed bonds. A TOB typically issues two classes of beneficial interests: short-term floating rate certificates, which are sold to third party investors, and residual certificates (“TOB Residuals”), which are generally issued to the participating funds that made the transfer. The TOB Residuals held by a Trust include the right of the Trust (1) to cause the holders of a proportional share of the floating rate certificates to tender their certificates at par, and (2) to transfer, within seven days, a corresponding share of the municipal bonds from the TOB to the Trust. The TOB may also be terminated without the consent of the Trust upon the occurrence of certain events as defined in the TOB agreements. Such termination events may include the bankruptcy or default of the municipal bond, a substantial downgrade in credit quality of the municipal bond, the inability of the TOB to obtain quarterly or annual renewal of the liquidity support agreement, a substantial decline in market value of the municipal bond or the inability to remarket the short-term floating rate certificates to third party investors.
The cash received by the TOB from the sale of the short-term floating rate certificates, less transaction expenses, is paid to the Trust, which typically invests the cash in additional municipal bonds. Each Trust’s transfer of the municipal bonds to a TOB is accounted for as a secured borrowing, therefore the municipal bonds deposited into a TOB are presented in the Trust’s Schedules of Investments and the proceeds from the issuance of the short term floating rate certificates are shown as trust certificates in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Interest income from the underlying securities is recorded by the Trusts on an accrual basis. Interest expense incurred on the secured borrowing and other expenses related to remarketing, administration and trustee services to a TOB are reported as expenses of the Trusts. The floating rate certificates have interest rates that generally reset weekly and their holders have the option

to tender certificates to the TOB for redemption at par at each reset date.

Financial transactions executed through TOBs generally will underperform the market for fixed rate municipal bonds when short-term interest rates rise, but tend to outperform the market for fixed rate bonds when short-term interest rates decline or remain relatively stable. Should short-term interest rates rise, the Trusts’ investments in TOBs may adversely affect the Trusts’ investment income and distributions to Common Shareholders. Also, fluctuations in the market value of municipal bonds deposited into the TOB may adversely affect the Trusts’ net asset value per share.
Zero-Coupon Bonds: Each Trust may invest in zero-coupon bonds, which are normally issued at a significant discount from face value and do not provide for periodic interest payments. Zero-coupon bonds may experience greater volatility in market value than similar maturity debt obligations which provide for regular interest payments.
Segregation and Collateralization: In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) require that each Trust either receive collateral or segregate assets in connection with certain investments (e.g., financial futures contracts and swaps) each Trust will, consistent with SEC rules and/or certain interpretive letters issued by the SEC, segregate collateral or designate on its books and records cash or other liquid securities having a market value at least equal to the amount that would otherwise be required to be physically segregated. Furthermore, based on requirements and agreements with certain exchanges and third party broker-dealers, each party has requirements to deliver/deposit securities as collateral for certain investments (e.g., financial futures contracts and swaps). As part of these agreements, when the value of these investments achieves a previously agreed upon value (minimum transfer amount), each party may be required to deliver additional collateral.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income: For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are recorded on the dates the transactions are entered into (the trade dates). Realized gains and losses on security transactions are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Interest income is recognized on the accrual method. Each Trust amortizes all premiums and discounts on debt securities.
Dividends and Distributions: Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid monthly. Distributions of capital gains are recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Dividends and distributions to Preferred Shareholders are accrued and determined as described in Note 7.
Income Taxes: It is each Trust’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
Each Trust files US federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on Investment Quality Trusts’ and Income Trusts’ US federal tax returns remain open for the periods ended July 31, 2009 and 2008 and October 31, 2007 and 2006. The statutes of limitations on Florida 2020’s US federal tax returns remain open for the periods ended July 31, 2009 and 2008 and December 31, 2007 and 2006. The statutes of limitations on the Trusts’ state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement: In June 2009, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 166,”Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“FAS 166”), was issued. FAS 166 is intended to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. FAS 166 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2009. Earlier application is prohibited. The recognition and measurement provisions of FAS 166 must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. Additionally, the disclosure provisions of FAS 166 should be applied to transfers that occurred both before and after the effective date of FAS 166. The impact of FAS 166 on the Trusts’ statement disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.
Deferred Compensation and BlackRock Closed-End Share Equivalent Investment Plan: Under the deferred compensation plan approved by each Trusts’ Board, non-interested Trustees (“Independent Trustees”) may defer a portion of their annual complex-wide compensation. Deferred amounts earn an approximate return as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in common shares of other certain BlackRock Closed-End Funds
|
|
|
|
| ANNUAL REPORT | JULY 31, 2009 | 57 |
|
|
Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |
selected by the Independent Trustees. This has approximately the same economic effect for the Independent Trustees as if the Independent Trustees had invested the deferred amounts directly in other certain BlackRock Closed-End Funds.
The deferred compensation plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of each Trust. Each Trust may, however, elect to invest in common shares of other certain BlackRock Closed-End Funds selected by the Independent Trustees in order to match its deferred compensation obligations. Investments to cover each Trust’s deferred compensation liability are included in other assets in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Dividends and distributions from the BlackRock Closed-End Fund investments under the plan are included in income — affiliated in the Statements of Operations.
Other: Expenses directly related to a Trust are charged to that Trust. Other operating expenses shared by several funds are prorated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods.
2. Derivative Financial Instruments:
The Trusts may engage in various portfolio investment strategies both to increase the returns of the Trusts and to economically hedge, or protect, their exposure to interest rate movements and movements in the securities markets. Losses may arise if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the price of the underlying security, or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. The Trusts may mitigate these losses through master netting agreements included within an International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreement between the Trusts and their counterparties. The ISDA Master Agreement allows each Trust to offset with its counterparty each Trust’s certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held. To the extent amounts due to the Trusts from their counterparties are not fully collateralized contractually or otherwise, the Trusts bear the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. See Note 1 “Segregation and Collateralization” for information with respect to collateral practices.
The Trusts are subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives by investing in various derivative instruments, as described below.
Financial Futures Contracts: The Trusts may purchase or sell financial futures contracts and options on financial futures contracts to gain exposure to, or economically hedge against, changes in interest rates (interest rate risk). Financial futures contracts are contracts for delayed delivery of securities at a specific future date and at a specific price or yield. Pursuant to the contract, the Trusts agree to receive from, or pay to, the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as margin variation and are recognized by the Trusts as unrealized gains or losses. When the contract is closed, the Trusts record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The use of financial futures transactions involves the risk of an imperfect correlation in the movements in the price of financial futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying assets. Financial futures transactions involve minimal counterparty risk since financial futures contracts are guaranteed against default by the exchange on which they trade. Counterparty risk is also minimized by the daily margin variation.
Swaps: The Trusts may enter into swap agreements, in which a Trust and a counterparty agree to make periodic net payments on a specified notional amount. These periodic payments received or made by the Trusts are recorded in the Statements of Operations as realized gains or losses, respectively. Swaps are marked-to-market daily and changes in value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation). When the swap is terminated, the Trusts will record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Trusts’ basis in the contract, if any. Swap transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of interest rate, credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of the contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates and/or market values associated with these transactions.
|
|
|
| • | Forward interest rate swaps — The Trusts may enter into forward interest rate swaps to manage duration, the yield curve or interest rate risk by economically hedging the value of the fixed rate bonds which may decrease when interest rates rise (interest rate risk). In a forward interest rate swap, each Trust and the counterparty agree to make periodic net payments on a specified notional contract amount, commencing on a specified future effective date, unless terminated earlier. The Trusts generally intend to close each forward interest rate swap before the effective date specified in the agreement and therefore avoid entering into the interest rate swap underlying each forward interest rate swap. The Trusts’ maximum risk of loss due to counterparty default is the amount of the unrealized gain on the contract. |

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions with Affiliates:
The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (“PNC”) and Bank of America Corporation (“BAC”) are the largest stockholders of BlackRock, Inc. (“BlackRock”). BAC became a stockholder of BlackRock following its acquisition of Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. (“Merrill Lynch”) on January 1, 2009. Prior to that date, both PNC and Merrill Lynch were considered affiliates of the Trusts under the 1940 Act. Subsequent to the acquisition, PNC remains an affiliate, but due to the restructuring of Merrill Lynch’s ownership interest of BlackRock, BAC is not deemed to be an affiliate under the 1940 Act.
Each Trust entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”) the Trusts’ investment advisor, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, to provide investment advisory and administration services.
The Manager is responsible for the management of each Trust’s portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of each Trust. For such services, each Trust pays the Manager a monthly fee at an annual rate of 0.35% for the Investment Quality Trusts, 0.60% for the Income Trusts and 0.50% for Florida 2020 of each Trust’s average weekly net assets. Average weekly net assets is the average weekly value of each Trust’s total assets minus the sum of its accrued liabilities.
The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the investment advisory fee on the Income Trusts as a percentage of average daily net assets as follows: 0.10% through July 31, 2009 and 0.05% through July 31, 2010. For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Manager waived the following amounts, which are included in fees waived by advisor in the Statements of Operations:

5. Income Tax Information:
Reclassifications: Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. The following permanent differences as of July 31, 2009 attributable to amortization methods on fixed income securities and the tax classification of distributions received from a regulated investment company were reclassified to the following accounts:

* | The differences between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized losses were attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the difference between book and tax amortization methods for premiums and discounts on fixed income securities, the deferral of post-October capital losses for tax purposes, the timing and recognition of partnership income, the difference between the book and tax treatment of residual interests in tender option bond trusts and the deferral of compensation to trustees. |
As of July 31, 2009, the Funds had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains through the indicated expiration dates:

6. Concentration, Market and Credit Risk:
Each Trust invests a substantial amount of its assets in issuers located in a single state or limited number of states. Please see the Schedules of Investments for concentration in specific states.
Many municipalities insure repayment of their bonds, which reduces the risk of loss due to issuer default. The market value of these bonds may fluctuate for other reasons, including market perception of the value of such insurance, and there is no guarantee that the insurer will meet its obligation.
In the normal course of business, the Trusts invest in securities and enter into transactions where risks exist due to fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of the issuer of a security to meet all its obligations (credit risk). The value of securities held by the Trusts may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the issuers whose securities are owned by the Trusts; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency and interest rate and price fluctuations. Similar to credit risk, the Trusts may be exposed to counterparty risk, or the risk that an entity with which the Trusts have unsettled or open transactions may default. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Trusts to credit and counterparty risks, consist principally of investments and cash due from counterparties. The extent of the Trusts’ exposure to credit and counterparty risks with respect to these financial assets is approximated by their value recorded in the Trusts’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
7. Capital Share Transactions:
Each Investment Quality Trust is authorized to issue 200 million shares, including Preferred Shares, par value $0.01 per share, all of which were initially classified as Common Shares. There are an unlimited number of $0.001 par value common shares authorized for the Income Trusts and Florida 2020. Each Trust’s Board is authorized, however, to reclassify any unissued shares of shares without approval of Common Shareholders. At July 31, 2009 the Common Shares owned by affiliates of the Manager for Florida 2020 was 8,028 shares.
Common Shares
During the year ended July 31, 2009, the period November 1, 2007 to July 31, 2008 and the year ended October 31, 2007 the shares issued and outstanding increased by the following amounts as a result of dividend reinvestment:

Shares issued and outstanding for Florida 2020 and Investment Quality remained constant for the year ended July 31, 2009, the period ended July 31, 2008 and the year ended December 31, 2007 (October 31, 2007 for Investment Quality).
Preferred Shares
The Preferred Shares are redeemable at the option of each Trust, in whole or in part, on any dividend payment date at their liquidation preference per share plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends whether or not declared. The Preferred Shares are also subject to mandatory redemption at their liquidation preference plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends, whether or not declared, if certain requirements relating to the composition of the assets and liabilities of a Trust, as set forth in each Trust’s Statement of Preferences or Articles Supplementary, as applicable (the “Governing Instrument”) are not satisfied.
From time to time in the future, each Trust that has issued Preferred Shares may affect repurchases of such shares at prices below its liquidation preferences as agreed upon by the Trust and seller. Each Trust also may redeem its respective Preferred Shares from time to time as provided in the applicable Governing Instrument. Each Trust intends to affect such redemptions and/or repurchases to the extent necessary to maintain applicable asset coverage requirements or for such other reasons as the Board may determine.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued) |
The holders of Preferred Shares have voting rights equal to the holders of Common Shares (one vote per share) and will vote together with holders of Common Shares (one vote per share) as a single class. However, the holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, are also entitled to elect two Trustees for each Trust. In addition, the 1940 Act requires that along with approval by shareholders that might otherwise be required, the approval of the holders of a majority of any outstanding Preferred Shares, voting separately as a class would be required to (a) adopt any plan of reorganization that would adversely affect the Preferred Shares, (b) change a Trust’s sub-classification as a closed-end investment company or change its fundamental investment restrictions or (c) change its business so as to cease to be an investment company.
The Trusts had the following series of Preferred Shares outstanding, effective yields and reset frequency as of July 31, 2009:

Dividends on 7-day Preferred Shares are cumulative at a rate, which is reset every 7 days based on the results of an auction. If the Preferred Shares fail to clear the auction on an auction date, the affected Trust is required to pay the maximum applicable rate on the Preferred Shares to holders of such shares for successive dividend periods until such time as the shares are successfully auctioned. The maximum applicable rate on all series of Preferred Shares is the higher of 110% of the AA commercial paper rate or 110% of 90% of the Kenny S&P 30-day High Grade Index rate divided by 1.00 minus the marginal tax rate. The low, high and average dividend rates on the Preferred Shares for each Trust for the year ended July 31, 2009 were as follows:

Since February 13, 2008, the Preferred Shares of each Trust failed to clear any of their auctions. As a result, the Preferred Share dividend rates were reset to the maximum applicable rate that ranged from 0.35% to 12.57%. A failed auction is not an event of default for the Trusts but it has a negative impact on the liquidity of the Preferred Shares. A failed auction occurs when there are more sellers of a trust’s auction rate Preferred Shares than buyers. It is impossible to predict how long this imbalance will last. A successful auction for each Trust’s Preferred Shares may not occur for some time, if ever, and even if liquidity does resume, Preferred Shareholders may not have the ability to sell the Preferred Shares at their liquidation preference.
A Trust may not declare dividends or make other distributions on Common Shares or purchase any such shares if, at the time of the declaration, distribution or purchase, asset coverage with respect to the outstanding Preferred Shares is less than 200%.
Prior to December 22, 2008, the Trusts paid commissions to certain broker dealers at the end of each auction at an annual rate of 0.25%, calculated on the aggregate principal amount. As of December 22, 2008, commissions paid to broker-dealers on preferred shares that experienced a failed auction were reduced to 0.15% on the aggregate principal amount. The Trusts will pay commissions of 0.25% on the aggregate principal amount of all shares that successfully clear their auctions. Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch, earned commissions for the period August 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008 (after which time Merrill Lynch was no longer considered an affiliate) as follows:

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements |
The Board of Directors or the Board of Trustees, as the case may be (each, a “Board” and, collectively, the Boards, the members of which are referred to as “Board Members”) of each of BlackRock California Investment Quality Municipal Trust, Inc. (“RAA”), BlackRock California Municipal Income Trust (“BFZ”), BlackRock Florida Municipal 2020 Term Trust (“BFO”), BlackRock Investment Quality Municipal Income Trust (“RFA”), BlackRock Municipal Income Investment Trust (“BBF”), BlackRock New Jersey Investment Quality Municipal Trust, Inc. (“RNJ”), BlackRock New Jersey Municipal Income Trust (“BNJ”), BlackRock New York Investment Quality Municipal Trust, Inc. (“RNY”), BlackRock New York Municipal Income Trust (“BNY” and, together with RAA, BFZ, BFO, RFA, BBF, RNJ, BNJ and RNY, each a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”) met on April 14, 2009 and May 28 – 29, 2009 to consider the approval of its respective Fund’s investment advisory agreement (each, an “Advisory Agreement”) with BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), the Funds’ investment advisor. Each Board also considered the approval of the sub-advisory agreement (each, a “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between its respective Fund, the Manager and BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. (the “Sub-Advisor”). The Manager and the Sub-Advisor are referred to herein as “BlackRock.” The Advisory Agreements and the Sub-Advisory Agreements are referred to herein as the “Agreements.” Unless otherwise indicated, references to actions taken by the “Board” or the “Boards” shall mean each Board acting independently with respect to its respective Fund.
Activities and Composition of the Boards
Each Board consists of twelve individuals, ten of whom are not “interested persons” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) (the “Independent Board Members”). The Board Members of each Fund are responsible for the oversight of the operations of such Fund and perform the various duties imposed on the directors of investment companies by the 1940 Act. The Independent Board Members have retained independent legal counsel to assist them in connection with their duties. The Chairman of each Board is an Independent Board Member. Each Board has established five standing committees: an Audit Committee, a Governance and Nominating Committee, a Compliance Committee, a Performance Oversight Committee and an Executive Committee, each of which is composed of Independent Board Members (except for the Executive Committee, which has one interested Board Member) and is chaired by an Independent Board Member. In addition, each Board has established an Ad Hoc Committee on Auction Market Preferred Shares.
The Agreements
Pursuant to the 1940 Act, each Board is required to consider the continuation of the Agreements on an annual basis. In connection with this process, each Board assessed, among other things, the nature, scope and quality of the services provided to its respective Fund by the personnel of BlackRock and its affiliates, including investment management, administrative services, shareholder services, oversight of fund accounting and custody, marketing services and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements.
Throughout the year, the Boards, acting directly and through their committees, considers at each of their meetings factors that are relevant to their annual consideration of the renewal of the Agreements, including the services and support provided by BlackRock to the Funds and their shareholders. Among the matters the Boards considered were: (a) investment performance for one-, three- and five-year periods, as applicable, against peer funds, and applicable benchmarks, if any, as well as senior management and portfolio managers’ analysis of the reasons for any underperformance against its peers; (b) fees, including advisory fees, administration fees with respect to RNJ, RAA, RFA and RNY, and other amounts paid to BlackRock and its affiliates by the Funds for services such as call center and fund accounting; (c) the Funds’ operating expenses; (d) the resources devoted to, and compliance reports relating to, the Funds’ investment objectives, policies and restrictions; (e) the Funds’ compliance with their Code of Ethics and compliance policies and procedures; (f) the nature, cost and character of non-investment management services provided by BlackRock and its affiliates; (g) BlackRock’s and other service providers’ internal controls; (h) BlackRock’s implementation of the proxy voting policies approved by the Boards; (i) execution quality of portfolio transactions; (j) BlackRock’s implementation of the Funds’ valuation and liquidity procedures; and (k) periodic updates on BlackRock’s business.
Board Considerations in Approving the Agreements
The Approval Process: Prior to the April 14, 2009 meeting, each Board requested and received materials specifically relating to the Agreements. Each Board is engaged in an ongoing process with BlackRock to continuously review the nature and scope of the information provided to better assist their deliberations. The materials provided in connection with the April meeting included: (a) information independently compiled and prepared by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”) on Fund fees and expenses, and the investment performance of each Fund as compared with a peer group of funds as determined by Lipper and a customized peer group selected by BlackRock, as applicable (collectively, “Peers”); (b) information on the profitability of the Agreements to BlackRock and a discussion of fall-out benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates and significant shareholders; (c) a general analysis provided by BlackRock concerning investment advisory fees charged to other clients, such as institutional and open-end funds, under similar investment mandates, as well as the performance of such other clients; (d) the impact of economies of scale; (e) a summary of aggregate amounts paid by each Fund to BlackRock; and (f) an internal comparison of management fees classified by Lipper, if applicable.
At an in-person meeting held on April 14, 2009, each Board reviewed materials relating to its consideration of the Agreements. As a result of the discussions that occurred during the April 14, 2009 meeting, the Boards presented BlackRock with questions and requests for additional information and BlackRock responded to these requests with additional written information in advance of the May 28 – 29, 2009 Board meeting.
At an in-person meeting held on May 28 – 29, 2009, each Fund’s Board, including the Independent Board Members, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between the Manager and such Fund and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between such Fund, the Manager and the Sub-Advisor, each for a one-year term ending June 30, 2010. The Boards considered all factors they believed relevant with respect to the Funds, including, among other factors: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the
|
|
|

|
|
Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements (continued) |
services provided by BlackRock; (b) the investment performance of the Funds and BlackRock portfolio management; (c) the advisory fee and the cost of the services and profits to be realized by BlackRock and certain affiliates from the relationship with the Funds; (d) economies of scale; and (e) other factors.
Each Board also considered other matters it deemed important to the approval process, such as services related to the valuation and pricing of its respective Fund’s portfolio holdings, direct and indirect benefits to BlackRock and its affiliates from their relationship with such Fund and advice from independent legal counsel with respect to the review process and materials submitted for the Board’s review. The Boards noted the willingness of BlackRock personnel to engage in open, candid discussions with the Boards. The Boards did not identify any particular information as controlling, and each Board Member may have attributed different weights to the various items considered.
A. Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services: Each Board, including its Independent Board Members, reviewed the nature, extent and quality of services provided by BlackRock, including the investment advisory services and the resulting performance of its respective Fund. Throughout the year, each Board compared its respective Fund’s performance to the performance of a comparable group of closed-end funds, and the performance of at least one relevant benchmark, if any. The Boards met with BlackRock’s senior management personnel responsible for investment operations, including the senior investment officers. Each Board also reviewed the materials provided by its respective Fund’s portfolio management team discussing such Fund’s performance and such Fund’s investment objective, strategies and outlook.
Each Board considered, among other factors, the number, education and experience of BlackRock’s investment personnel generally and its respective Fund’s portfolio management team, investments by portfolio managers in the funds they manage, BlackRock’s portfolio trading capabilities, BlackRock’s use of technology, BlackRock’s commitment to compliance and BlackRock’s approach to training and retaining portfolio managers and other research, advisory and management personnel. Each Board also reviewed a general description of BlackRock’s compensation structure with respect to its respective Fund’s portfolio management team and BlackRock’s ability to attract and retain high-quality talent.
In addition to advisory services, each Board considered the quality of the administrative and non-investment advisory services provided to its respective Fund. BlackRock and its affiliates provide the Funds with certain administrative and other services (in addition to any such services provided to the Funds by third parties) and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the operations of the Funds. In addition to investment advisory services, BlackRock and its affiliates provide the Funds with other services, including: (i) preparing disclosure documents, such as the prospectus and the statement of additional information in connection with the initial public offering and periodic shareholder reports; (ii) preparing communications with analysts to support secondary market trading of the Funds; (iii) assisting with daily accounting and pricing; (iv) preparing periodic filings with regulators and stock exchanges; (v) overseeing and coordinating the activities of other service providers; (vi) organizing Board meetings and preparing the materials for such Board meetings; (vii) providing legal and compliance support; and (viii) performing other administrative functions necessary for the operation of the Funds, such as tax reporting, fulfilling regulatory filing requirements, and call center services. The Boards reviewed the structure and duties of BlackRock’s fund administration, accounting, legal and compliance departments and considered BlackRock’s policies and procedures for assuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
B. The Investment Performance of the Funds and BlackRock: Each Board, including its Independent Board Members, also reviewed and considered the performance history of its respective Fund. In preparation for the April 14, 2009 meeting, the Boards were provided with reports, independently prepared by Lipper, which included a comprehensive analysis of each Fund’s performance. The Boards also reviewed a narrative and statistical analysis of the Lipper data that was prepared by BlackRock, which analyzed various factors that affect Lipper’s rankings. In connection with its review, each Board received and reviewed information regarding the investment performance of its respective Fund as compared to a representative group of similar funds as determined by Lipper and to all funds in such Fund’s applicable Lipper category and customized peer group selected by BlackRock, as applicable. Each Board was provided with a description of the methodology used by Lipper to select peer funds. Each Board regularly reviews the performance of its respective Fund throughout the year.
The Board of RAA noted that RAA performed below the median of its customized Lipper peer group composite in the one-, three- and five-year periods reported. The Board of RAA and BlackRock reviewed the reasons for RAA’s underperformance during these periods compared with its Peers. The Board of RAA was informed that, among other things, although RAA’s non-competitive yield distribution continues to hinder performance, progress has been made with respect to RAA’s duration management and credit selection components.
The Board of BFO noted that BFO performed below the median of its Lipper performance universe composite in the one- and three-year periods reported and BFO performed above the median of its Lipper performance universe composite in the five-year period reported. The Board of BFO and BlackRock reviewed the reasons for BFO’s underperformance during these periods compared with its Peers. The Board of BFO was informed that, among other things, performance was heavily influenced by BFO’s sector allocation with volatile market movement last year.
The Board of RFA noted that RFA performed below the median of its customized Lipper peer group composite in the one-, three- and five-year periods reported. The Board of RFA and BlackRock reviewed the reasons for RFA’s underperformance during these periods compared with its Peers. The Board of RFA was informed that, among other things, overweight positions in the hospital and housing sectors and poor performance of some insured and AMT bonds held by RFA negatively impacted RFA’s performance.
The Board of RNJ noted that RNJ performed below the median of its Lipper performance universe composite in the three- and five-year periods reported and RNJ performed above the median of its Lipper performance universe

composite in the one-year period reported. The Board of RNJ and BlackRock reviewed the reasons for RNJ’s underperformance during these periods compared with its Peers. The Board of RNJ was informed that, among other things, RNJ’s overweight positions in the hospital and housing sectors and poor performance of some insured and AMT bonds held by RNJ negatively impacted RNJ’s performance.
For RAA, BFO, RFA and RNJ, the Board of each respective Fund and BlackRock discussed BlackRock’s commitment to providing the resources necessary to assist the portfolio managers and to improve each such Fund’s performance.
The Boards of BFZ, BBF, RNY and BNY noted that, in general, BFZ, BBF, RNY and BNY performed better than their respective Peers in that the performance of each of BFZ, BBF, RNY and BNY were at or above the median of their respective customized Lipper peer group composite in each of the one-, three- and five-year periods reported.
The Board of BNJ noted that, in general, BNJ performed better than its Peers in that BNJ’s performance was at or above the median of its Lipper performance universe composite in each of the one-, three- and five-year periods reported.
C. Consideration of the Advisory Fees and the Cost of the Services and Profits to be Realized by BlackRock and its Affiliates from their Relationship with the Funds: Each Board, including its Independent Board Members, reviewed its respective Fund’s contractual advisory fee rates compared with the other funds in its respective Lipper category. Each Board also compared its respective Fund’s total expenses, as well as actual management fees, to those of other comparable funds. Each Board considered the services provided and the fees charged by BlackRock to other types of clients with similar investment mandates, including separately managed institutional accounts.
The Boards received and reviewed statements relating to BlackRock’s financial condition and profitability with respect to the services it provided the Funds. The Boards were also provided with a profitability analysis that detailed the revenues earned and the expenses incurred by BlackRock for services provided to the Funds. The Boards reviewed BlackRock’s profitability with respect to the Funds and other funds the Boards currently oversee for the year ended December 31, 2008 compared to available aggregate profitability data provided for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Boards reviewed BlackRock’s profitability with respect to other fund complexes managed by the Manager and/or its affiliates. The Boards reviewed BlackRock’s assumptions and methodology of allocating expenses in the profitability analysis, noting the inherent limitations in allocating costs among various advisory products. The Boards recognized that profitability may be affected by numerous factors including, among other things, fee waivers by the Manager, the types of funds managed, expense allocations and business mix, and therefore comparability of profitability is somewhat limited.
The Boards noted that, in general, individual fund or product line profitability of other advisors is not publicly available. Nevertheless, to the extent such information is available, the Boards considered BlackRock’s overall operating margin compared to the operating margin for leading investment management firms whose operations include advising closed-end funds, among other product types. The comparison indicated that operating margins for BlackRock with respect to its registered funds are consistent with margins earned by similarly situated publicly traded competitors. In addition, the Boards considered, among other things, certain third-party data comparing BlackRock’s operating margin with that of other publicly-traded asset management firms, which concluded that larger asset bases do not, in themselves, translate to higher profit margins.
In addition, the Boards considered the cost of the services provided to the Funds by BlackRock, and BlackRock’s and its affiliates’ profits relating to the management and distribution of the Funds and the other funds advised by BlackRock and its affiliates. As part of their analysis, the Boards reviewed BlackRock’s methodology in allocating its costs to the management of the Funds. The Boards also considered whether BlackRock has the financial resources necessary to attract and retain high-quality investment management personnel to perform its obligations under the Agreements and to continue to provide the high quality of services that is expected by the Boards.
Each Board noted that its respective Fund paid contractual management fees, which do not take into account any expense reimbursement or fee waivers, lower than or equal to the median contractual management fees paid by such Fund’s Peers.
D. Economies of Scale: Each Board, including its Independent Board Members, considered the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as the assets of its respective Fund increase and whether there should be changes in the advisory fee rate or structure in order to enable such Fund to participate in these economies of scale, for example through the use of breakpoints in the advisory fee based upon the assets of such Fund. The Boards considered that the funds in the BlackRock fund complex share some common resources and, as a result, an increase in the overall size of the complex could permit each fund to incur lower expenses than it would otherwise as a stand-alone entity. The Boards also considered BlackRock’s overall operations and its efforts to expand the scale of, and improve the quality of, its operations.
The Boards noted that most closed-end fund complexes do not have fund level breakpoints because closed-end funds generally do not experience substantial growth after the initial public offering and each fund is managed independently consistent with its own investment objectives. The Boards noted that only one closed-end fund in the Fund Complex has breakpoints in its fee structure. Information provided by Lipper also revealed that only one closed-end fund complex used a complex-level breakpoint structure.
E. Other Factors: The Boards also took into account other ancillary or “fallout” benefits that BlackRock or its affiliates and significant shareholders may derive from their relationship with the Funds, both tangible and intangible, such as BlackRock’s ability to leverage its investment professionals who manage other portfolios, an increase in BlackRock’s profile in the investment advisory community, and the engagement of BlackRock’s affiliates as service providers to the Funds, including for administrative and distribution services. The Boards also noted that BlackRock may use third-party research obtained by soft dollars generated by certain mutual fund transactions to assist itself in managing all or a number of its other client accounts.

Disclosure of Investment Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements (concluded) |
In connection with their consideration of the Agreements, the Boards also received information regarding BlackRock’s brokerage and soft dollar practices. The Boards received reports from BlackRock, which included information on brokerage commissions and trade execution practices throughout the year.
Conclusion
Each Board, including its Independent Board Members, unanimously approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement between its respective Fund and the Manager for a one-year term ending June 30, 2010 and the Sub-Advisory Agreement between such Fund, the Manager and Sub-Advisor for a one-year term ending June 30, 2010. Based upon its evaluation of all these factors in their totality, each Board, including its Independent Board Members, was satisfied that the terms of the Agreements were fair and reasonable and in the best interest of its respective Fund and its shareholders. In arriving at a decision to approve the Agreements, each Board did not identify any single factor or group of factors as all-important or controlling, but considered all factors together, and different Board Members may have attributed different weights to the various factors considered. The Independent Board Members were also assisted by the advice of independent legal counsel in making this determination. The contractual fee arrangements for each Fund reflects the results of several years of review by such Fund’s Board Members and predecessor Board Members, and discussions between such Board Members (and predecessor Board Members) and BlackRock. Certain aspects of the arrangements may be the subject of more attention in some years than in others, and the Board Members’ conclusions may be based in part on their consideration of these arrangements in prior years.

ANNUAL REPORT | JULY 31, 2009 | 69 |
|
|
Pursuant to each Trust’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”), common shareholders are automatically enrolled to have all distributions of dividends and capital gains reinvested by Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Plan Agent”) in the respective Trust’s shares pursuant to the Plan. Shareholders who elect not to participate in the Plan will receive all distributions in cash paid by check and mailed directly to the shareholders of record (or if the shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to the nominee) by the Plan Agent, which serves as agent for the shareholders in administering the Plan.
At present, after Florida 2020 declares a dividend or determines to make a capital gain distribution, the Plan Agent will acquire shares for the participant’s account, by the purchase of outstanding shares on the open market, on the Trust’s primary exchange or elsewhere (“open market purchases”).
After the Investment Quality Trusts and Income Trusts declare a dividend or determine to make a capital gain distribution, the Plan Agent will acquire shares for the participants’ accounts, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i) through receipt of unissued but authorized shares from the Trust (“newly issued shares”) or (ii) by open market purchases. If, on the dividend payment date, the net asset value per share (“NAV”) is equal to or less than the market price per share plus estimated brokerage commissions (such condition being referred to herein as “market premium”), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in newly issued shares on behalf of the participants. The number of newly issued shares to be credited to each participant’s account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend by the NAV on the date the shares are issued. However, if the NAV is less than 95% of the market price on the payment date, the dollar amount of the dividend will be divided by 95% of the market price on the payment date. If, on the dividend payment date, the NAV is greater than the market value per share plus estimated brokerage commissions (such condition being referred to herein as “market discount”), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in shares acquired on behalf of the participants in open market purchases.
Participation in the Plan is completely voluntary and may be terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by notice if received and processed by the Plan Agent prior to the dividend record date; otherwise such termination or resumption will be effective with respect to any subsequently declared dividend or other distribution.
The Plan Agent’s fees for the handling of the reinvestment of dividends and distributions will be paid by each Trust. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent’s open market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends and distributions. The automatic reinvestment of dividends and distributions will not relieve participants of any Federal income tax that may be payable on such dividends or distributions.
Each Trust reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan, however, each Trust reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants. Participants that request a sale of shares through the Plan Agent are subject to a $2.50 sales fee and a $0.15 per share sold brokerage commission. All correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Agent at P.O. Box 43078, Providence, RI 02940-3078 or by calling (800) 699-1BFM. All overnight correspondence should be directed to the Plan Agent at 250 Royall Street, Canton, MA 02021.

General Information |
The Trusts do not make available copies of their Statements of Additional Information because the Trusts’ shares are not continuously offered, which means that the Statement of Additional Information of each Trust has not been updated after completion of the respective Trust’s offerings and the information contained in each Trust’s Statement of Additional Information may have become outdated.
Other than the revisions discussed in Board Approvals on page 75, there were no material changes in the Trusts’ investment objectives or policies or to the Trusts’ charters or by-laws that were not approved by the shareholders or in the principal risk factors associated with investment in the Trusts. There have been no changes in the persons who are primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Trusts’ portfolio.
Quarterly performance, semi-annual and annual reports and other information regarding the Trusts may be found on BlackRock’s website, which can be accessed at http://www.blackrock.com.

Additional Information (concluded) |
|
Board Approvals |
On September 12, 2008, the Board of Trustees of BlackRock Florida Investment Quality Municipal Trust and BlackRock Florida Municipal Income Trust voted unanimously to change a non-fundamental investment policy of the Trusts, and to rename the Trusts “BlackRock Investment Quality Municipal Income Trust” and “BlackRock Municipal Income Investment Trust,” respectively. The Trusts’ previous non-fundamental investment policy required BlackRock Florida Investment Quality Municipal Trust to invest at least 80% of its assets, and BlackRock Florida Municipal Income Trust to invest at least 80% of its total assets, in Florida municipal bonds rated investment grade at the time of investment. Due to the repeal of the Florida Intangible Personal Property Tax as of January 2007, the Board has approved an amended policy allowing the Trusts flexibility to invest in municipal obligations regardless of geographic location. The Trusts’ new investment policy, under normal market conditions, is to invest at least 80% of their assets or total assets, as the case may be, in municipal bonds rated investment grade at the time of investment. The approved changes will not alter the Trusts’ investment objectives.
Under current market conditions, the Manager anticipates that it will gradually reposition the Trusts’ portfolios over time and that during such period the Trusts may continue to hold a substantial portion of its assets in Florida municipal bonds. At this time, it is uncertain how long the repositioning may take, and the Trusts will continue to be subject to risks associated with investing a substantial portion of its assets in Florida municipal bonds until the repositioning is complete.
The Manager and the Board believe the amended policy will allow the Manager to better manage the Trusts’ portfolios in the best interests of the Trusts’ shareholders and to better meet the Trusts’ investment objectives.
Effective September 12, 2008, following approval by the Trusts’ Board, the Board ratified the amendment of the terms of the Trusts’ Preferred Shares in order to allow the Trusts to enter into TOB transactions, the proceeds of which were used to redeem a portion of the Trusts’ Preferred Shares. Accordingly, the definition of Inverse Floaters was amended to incorporate the Trusts’ permissible ratio of floating rate instruments into inverse floating rate instruments. Additionally, conforming changes and certain formula modifications concerning inverse floaters were made to the definitions of Moody’s Discount Factor and S&P Discount Factor, as applicable, to integrate the Trusts’ investments in TOBs into applicable calculations.

ANNUAL REPORT | JULY 31, 2009 | 75 |
This report is transmitted to shareholders only. It is not a prospectus. Past performance results shown in this report should not be considered a representation of future performance. The Trusts have leveraged their Common Shares, which creates risks for Common Shareholders, including the likelihood of greater volatility of net asset value and market price of the Common Shares, and the risk that fluctuations in short-term dividend rates of the Preferred Shares, currently set at the maximum reset rate as a result of failed auctions, may affect the yield to Common Shareholders. Statements and other information herein are as dated and are subject to change.

|

Prof. Kester has been involved in providing valuation and other financial consulting services to corporate clients since 1978. Prof. Kester’s financial consulting services present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the registrant’s financial statements. |
|
|
| Ms. Robards has a thorough understanding of generally accepted accounting principles, financial statements and internal control over financial reporting as well as audit committee functions. Ms. Robards has been President of Robards & Company, a financial advisory firm, since 1987. Ms. Robards was formerly an investment banker for more than 10 years where she was responsible for evaluating and assessing the performance of companies based on their financial results. Ms. Robards has over 30 years of experience analyzing financial statements. She also is a member of the audit committee of one publicly held company and a non-profit organization. |
|
|
| Under applicable securities laws, a person determined to be an audit committee financial expert will not be deemed an “expert” for any purpose, including without limitation for the purposes of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as a result of being designated or identified as an audit committee financial expert. The designation or identification as an audit committee financial expert does not impose on such person any duties, obligations, or liabilities greater than the duties, obligations, and liabilities imposed on such person as a member of the audit committee and board of directors in the absence of such designation or identification. |

| (e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures: |
|
|
| The registrant’s audit committee (the “Committee”) has adopted policies and procedures with regard to the pre-approval of services. Audit, audit-related and tax compliance services provided to the registrant on an annual basis require specific pre-approval by the Committee. The Committee also must approve other non-audit services provided to the registrant and those non-audit services provided to the registrant’s affiliated service providers that relate directly to the operations and the financial reporting of the registrant. Certain of these non-audit services that the Committee believes are a) consistent with the SEC’s auditor independence rules and b) routine and recurring services that will not impair the independence of the independent accountants may be approved by the Committee without consideration on a specific case-by-case basis (“general pre-approval”). The term of any general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of the pre-approval, unless the Committee provides for a different period. Tax or other non-audit services provided to the registrant which have a direct impact on the operation or financial reporting of the registrant will only be deemed pre-approved provided that any individual project does not exceed $10,000 attributable to the registrant or $50,000 for all of the registrants the Committee oversees. For this purpose, multiple projects will be aggregated to determine if they exceed the previously mentioned cost levels. |
|
|
| Any proposed services exceeding the pre-approved cost levels will require specific pre-approval by the Committee, as will any other services not subject to general pre-approval (e.g., unanticipated but permissible services). The Committee is informed of each service approved subject to general pre-approval at the next regularly scheduled in-person board meeting. At this meeting, an analysis of such services is presented to the Committee for ratification. The Committee may delegate to one or more of its members the authority to approve the provision of and fees for any specific engagement of permitted non-audit services, including services exceeding pre-approved cost levels. |
|
|
| (e)(2) None of the services described in each of Items 4(b) through (d) were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X. |

| (h) The registrant’s audit committee has considered and determined that the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any non-affiliated sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by the registrant’s investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence. |

|
Item 7 – | Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies – The board of directors has delegated the voting of proxies for the Fund securities to the Fund’s investment adviser (“Investment Adviser”) pursuant to the Investment Adviser’s proxy voting guidelines. Under these guidelines, the Investment Adviser will vote proxies related to Fund securities in the best interests of the Fund and its stockholders. From time to time, a vote may present a conflict between the interests of the Fund’s stockholders, on the one hand, and those of the Investment Adviser, or any affiliated person of the Fund or the Investment Adviser, on the other. In such event, provided that the Investment Adviser’s Equity Investment Policy Oversight Committee, or a sub-committee thereof (the “Oversight Committee”) is aware of the real or potential conflict or material non-routine matter and if the Oversight Committee does not reasonably believe it is able to follow its general voting guidelines (or if the particular proxy matter is not addressed in the guidelines) and vote impartially, the Oversight Committee may retain an independent fiduciary to advise the Oversight Committee on how to vote or to cast votes on behalf of the Investment Adviser’s clients. If the Investment Adviser determines not to retain an independent fiduciary, or does not desire to follow the advice of such independent fiduciary, the Oversight Committee shall determine how to vote the proxy after consulting with the Investment Adviser’s Portfolio |
|
|
| Management Group and/or the Investment Adviser’s Legal and Compliance Department and concluding that the vote cast is in its client’s best interest notwithstanding the conflict. A copy of the Fund’s Proxy Voting Policy and Procedures are attached as Exhibit 99.PROXYPOL. Information on how the Fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available without charge, (i) at www.blackrock.com and (ii) on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. |

| (iv) Potential Material Conflicts of Interest |
|
|
| BlackRock and its affiliates (collectively, herein “BlackRock”) has built a professional working environment, firm-wide compliance culture and compliance procedures and systems designed to protect against potential incentives that may favor one account over another. BlackRock has adopted |
|
|
| policies and procedures that address the allocation of investment opportunities, execution of portfolio transactions, personal trading by employees and other potential conflicts of interest that are designed to ensure that all client accounts are treated equitably over time. Nevertheless, BlackRock furnishes investment management and advisory services to numerous clients in addition to the Fund, and BlackRock may, consistent with applicable law, make investment recommendations to other clients or accounts (including accounts which are hedge funds or have performance or higher fees paid to BlackRock, or in which portfolio managers have a personal interest in the receipt of such fees), which may be the same as or different from those made to the Fund. In addition, BlackRock, its affiliates and significant shareholders and any officer, director, stockholder or employee may or may not have an interest in the securities whose purchase and sale BlackRock recommends to the Fund. BlackRock, or any of its affiliates or significant shareholders, or any officer, director, stockholder, employee or any member of their families may take different actions than those recommended to the Fund by BlackRock with respect to the same securities. Moreover, BlackRock may refrain from rendering any advice or services concerning securities of companies of which any of BlackRock’s (or its affiliates’ or significant shareholders’) officers, directors or employees are directors or officers, or companies as to which BlackRock or any of its affiliates or significant shareholders or the officers, directors and employees of any of them has any substantial economic interest or possesses material non-public information. Each portfolio manager also may manage accounts whose investment strategies may at times be opposed to the strategy utilized for a fund. In this connection, it should be noted that a portfolio manager may currently manage certain accounts that are subject to performance fees. In addition, a portfolio manager may assist in managing certain hedge funds and may be entitled to receive a portion of any incentive fees earned on such funds and a portion of such incentive fees may be voluntarily or involuntarily deferred. Additional portfolio managers may in the future manage other such accounts or funds and may be entitled to receive incentive fees. |
|
|
| As a fiduciary, BlackRock owes a duty of loyalty to its clients and must treat each client fairly. When BlackRock purchases or sells securities for more than one account, the trades must be allocated in a manner consistent with its fiduciary duties. BlackRock attempts to allocate investments in a fair and equitable manner among client accounts, with no account receiving preferential treatment. To this end, BlackRock has adopted a policy that is intended to ensure that investment opportunities are allocated fairly and equitably among client accounts over time. This policy also seeks to achieve reasonable efficiency in client transactions and provide BlackRock with sufficient flexibility to allocate investments in a manner that is consistent with the particular investment discipline and client base. |

|
| Portfolio Manager Compensation Overview |
|
|
| BlackRock’s financial arrangements with its portfolio managers, its competitive compensation and its career path emphasis at all levels reflect the value senior management places on key resources. Compensation may include a variety of components and may vary from year to year based on a number of factors. The principal components of compensation include a base salary, a performance-based discretionary bonus, participation in various benefits programs and one or more of the incentive compensation programs established by BlackRock such as its Long-Term Retention and Incentive Plan. |
|
|
| Base compensation. Generally, portfolio managers receive base compensation based on their seniority and/or their position with the firm. Senior portfolio managers who perform additional management functions within the portfolio management group or within BlackRock may receive additional compensation for serving in these other capacities. |
|
|
| Discretionary Incentive Compensation |
|
|
| Discretionary incentive compensation is a function of several components: the performance of BlackRock, Inc., the performance of the portfolio manager’s group within BlackRock, the investment performance, including risk-adjusted returns, of the firm’s assets under management or supervision by that portfolio manager relative to predetermined benchmarks, and the individual’s seniority, role within the portfolio management team, teamwork and contribution to the overall performance of these portfolios and BlackRock. In most cases, including for the portfolio managers of the Fund, these benchmarks are the same as the benchmark or benchmarks against which the performance of the Fund or other accounts managed by the portfolio managers are measured. BlackRock’s Chief Investment Officers determine the benchmarks against which the performance of funds and other accounts managed by each portfolio manager is compared and the period of time over which performance is evaluated. With respect to the portfolio managers, such benchmarks for the Fund include a combination of market-based indices (e.g. Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index), certain customized indices and certain fund industry peer groups. |
|
|
| BlackRock’s Chief Investment Officers make a subjective determination with respect to the portfolio managers’ compensation based on the performance of the funds and other accounts managed by each portfolio manager relative to the various benchmarks noted above. Performance is measured on both a pre-tax and after-tax basis over various time periods including 1, 3, 5 and 10-year periods, as applicable. |
|
|
| Distribution of Discretionary Incentive Compensation |
|
|
| Discretionary incentive compensation is distributed to portfolio managers in a combination of cash and BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units which vest ratably over a number of years. The BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units, if properly vested, will be settled in BlackRock, Inc. common stock. Typically, the cash bonus, when combined with base salary, represents more than 60% of total compensation for the portfolio managers. Paying a portion of annual bonuses in stock puts compensation earned by a portfolio manager for a given year “at risk” based on BlackRock’s ability to sustain and improve its performance over future periods. |
|
|
| Long-Term Retention and Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) — The LTIP is a long-term incentive plan that seeks to reward certain key employees. Beginning in 2006, awards are granted under the LTIP in the form of BlackRock, Inc. restricted stock units that, if properly vested and subject to the attainment of certain performance goals, will be settled in BlackRock, Inc. common stock. Messrs. O’Connor and Jaeckel have each received awards under the LTIP. |
|
|
| Deferred Compensation Program — A portion of the compensation paid to eligible BlackRock employees may be voluntarily deferred into an account that tracks the performance of certain of the firm’s investment products. Each participant in the deferred compensation program is permitted to allocate his deferred amounts among the various investment options. Messrs. O’Connor, Jaeckel and Sneeden have each participated in the deferred compensation program. |
|
|
| Other compensation benefits. In addition to base compensation and discretionary incentive compensation, portfolio managers may be eligible to receive or participate in one or more of the following: |
|
|
| Incentive Savings Plans — BlackRock, Inc. has created a variety of incentive savings plans in which BlackRock employees are eligible to participate, including a 401(k) plan, the BlackRock Retirement Savings Plan (RSP), and the BlackRock Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). The employer contribution components of the RSP include a company match equal to 50% of the first 6% of eligible pay contributed to the plan capped at $4,000 per year, and a company retirement contribution equal to 3-5% of eligible compensation. The RSP offers a range of investment options, including registered investment companies managed by the firm. BlackRock contributions follow the investment direction set by participants for their own contributions or, absent employee investment direction, are invested into a balanced portfolio. The ESPP allows for investment in BlackRock common stock at a 5% discount on the fair market value of the stock on the purchase date. Annual participation in the ESPP is limited to the purchase of 1,000 shares or a dollar value of $25,000. Each portfolio manager is eligible to participate in these plans. |
