Under normal circumstances, the Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in municipal bonds. This policy is a fundamental policy of the Fund and may not be changed without approval of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). The Fund’s investments in derivatives will be counted toward the Fund’s 80% policy to the extent that they provide investment exposure to the securities included within that policy or to one or more market risk factors associated with such securities. Municipal bonds include debt obligations issued by or on behalf of a governmental entity or other qualifying issuer that pay interest that is, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, generally excludable from gross income for Federal income tax purposes (except that the interest may be includable in taxable income for purposes of the Federal alternative minimum tax). Municipal bonds may be obligations of a variety of issuers, including governmental entities or other qualifying issuers. Issuers may be states, territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia and their political subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities. Municipal bonds also include short-term tax-exempt obligations like municipal notes and variable rate demand obligations. div style="margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial;"The Fund may invest in municipal bonds rated in any rating category or in unrated municipal bonds. Although the Fund may invest in municipal bonds in any rating category, Fund management presently intends to invest at least 65% of the Fund’s net assets in medium- to low-quality bonds as rated by at least one independent rating agency (BBB or lower by Samp;P Global Ratings (“Samp;P”) or Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”) or Baa or lower by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”)), or if unrated, judged to be of comparable quality by BlackRock. Obligations rated below BBB or Baa are commonly known as “junk bonds.” It is possible that the Fund could invest up to 100% of its assets in “junk bonds.”/div div style="margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial;"The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in municipal bonds that are considered distressed securities, which are securities that are the subject of bankruptcy proceedings or otherwise in default as to the repayment of principal and/or payment of interest at the time of acquisition or are rated in the lowest rating categories by at least one independent rating agency (CC or lower by Samp;P or Fitch or Ca or lower by Moody’s), or if unrated, judged to be of comparable quality by BFA. The Fund will primarily invest in municipal bonds that have a maturity of five years or longer. Generally, the Fund will invest in distressed securities when Fund management believes they offer significant potential for higher returns or can be exchanged for other securities that offer this potential. However, there can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve these returns or that the issuer will make an exchange offer or adopt a plan of reorganization./div div style="margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial;"The Fund is classified as diversified under the Investment Company Act./div
