Item 1.

This Amendment No. 5 (this "Amendment") amends, as set forth below, the statement on Schedule 13D, dated April 17, 2014 and filed with the SEC on April 28, 2014 (as amended to the date hereof, the “Original Schedule 13D”) of Bank of America Corporation ("BAC") and Bank of America Preferred Funding Corporation ("BAPFC") (collectively, the "Reporting Persons") with respect to the Variable Rate Demand Preferred Shares ("VRDP Shares") of BlackRock MuniYield Fund, Inc. (the "Issuer").

This Amendment is being filed to report a change in the Reporting Persons' ownership percentage of the Issuer as a result of an automatic tender of the Reporting Persons’ 2,514 VRDP Shares (CUSIP No. 09253W880). BofA Securities, Inc. (“BOFAS”) has purchased a portion of these shares in its capacity as market maker in the VRDP shares.

BOFAS has purchased a portion of these shares in its capacity as market maker in the VRDP shares.

Item 4.

Purpose of the Transaction

Item 4 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph at the end thereof:

"As a result of the Transaction, the BAPFC no longer own any VRDP Shares (CUSIP No. 09253W880). BOFAS has purchased a portion of these shares in its capacity as market maker in the VRDP shares."

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Paragraph (d) and (e) of Item 5 of the Original Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph at the end thereof:

“(c) The reporting persons have affected the following transactions in the VRDP shares:

TRADE DATE	BUY/SELL	QUANTITY	PRICE	EXECUTION
11/14	BUY	2514 Shares	251,400.00	OTC
11/14	SELL	1210 Shares	121,000,000	OTC
11/14	SELL	250 Shares	25,000,000	OTC
11/14	SELL	298 Shares	29,800,000	OTC

(d) Not applicable.

(e) On November 14, 2024, as a result of the Transaction, BAPFC ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities."
