Good day,
Unfortunately, due to a lack of shareholder participation, the BlackRock Funds shareholder meeting scheduled for October 26, 2021 has been adjourned a second time to December 23, 2021.
We’ve made numerous attempts to reach you regarding holdings for which you may be authorized to vote. If we do not receive your vote, the Fund(s) may need to continue to solicit proxies for voter participation, which will include additional mailings and phone calls. To ensure your vote is counted, please vote as soon as possible!
The Board believes the proposals are in the best interest of the Fund(s) and recommends a vote in favor of all proposals. Casting an ABSTAIN vote, however (which is a vote neither FOR nor AGAINST the applicable proposal), would count your shares and help prevent further solicitation. Additional information about the proposals can be found in the attached proxy statement.
BlackRock’s proxy solicitor, Computershare, would be happy to assist you by answering any questions about the proposals and by recording your vote over the phone. Voting by phone is a quick way to participate, ensures that your shares are represented for the meeting and removes you from the calling list.
Please call us at 1-866-650-3710 and provide reference number <<GS Number>>. We are available Monday-Friday 9:00 a.m.-11:00 p.m. Eastern Time as well as on Saturday from 12:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
The proxy materials contain important information; please read them carefully. Copies of the Proxy Statement are available for free on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website at www.sec.gov or by visiting WWW.PROXY-DIRECT.COM/BLK-32307 or by calling Computershare Fund Services, the Funds’ proxy solicitor, toll free at 1-866-650-3710.
Best regards,
