\nEach of the Funds has adopted a managed distribution plan (the \u201cPlan\u201d) to support a level monthly distribution of income, capital gains and\/or return of capital, or in the case of BMEZ, BSTZ, BTX, BCAT and ECAT a monthly distribution based on an annual rate of 12% (for BMEZ, BSTZ and BTX) and 20% (for BCAT and ECAT) of the Fund\u2019s 12-month rolling average daily net asset value calculated 5 business days prior to declaration date of each distribution. The fixed amounts distributed per share or distribution rate, as applicable, are subject to change at the discretion of each Fund\u2019s Board of Directors\/Trustees. <\/b>Under its Plan, each Fund will distribute all available net income to its shareholders, consistent with its investment objectives and as required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the \u201cCode\u201d). If sufficient income (inclusive of net investment income and short-term capital gains) is not available on a monthly basis, the Funds will distribute long-term capital gains and\/or return capital to their shareholders in order to maintain a level distribution.<\/p>\n

\nEach Fund\u2019s estimated sources of the distributions paid February 28, 2025 and for its current fiscal year are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

1<\/sup>The Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net-realized capital gains in the current fiscal year; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder\u2019s investment is paid back to the shareholder. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with \u2018yield\u2019 or \u2018income\u2019. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund\u2019s net asset value per share.<\/p>\n

The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates and are being provided to you pursuant to regulatory requirements and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon each Fund\u2019s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\n
Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a Fund\u2019s investment performance from the amount of the Fund\u2019s current distributions or from the terms of the Fund\u2019s Plan.<\/b><\/p>\n

\nBlackRock Enhanced Government Fund, Inc. (NYSE: EGF), BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. (NYSE: BKT), BlackRock Debt Strategies Fund, Inc. (NYSE: DSU), BlackRock Floating Rate Income Strategies Fund, Inc. (NYSE: FRA), BlackRock Taxable Municipal Bond Trust (NYSE: BBN), BlackRock Floating Rate Income Trust (NYSE: BGT), BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc. (NYSE: HYT), BlackRock Credit Allocation Income Trust (NYSE: BTZ), BlackRock Limited Duration Income Trust (NYSE: BLW), BlackRock Core Bond Trust (NYSE: BHK) and BlackRock Multi-Sector Income Trust (NYSE: BIT) have adopted a Plan to support a level monthly distribution of income, capital gains and\/or return of capital. The fixed amounts distributed per share are subject to change at the discretion of each Fund\u2019s Board of Directors\/Trustees.<\/b> Under its Plan, each Fund will distribute all available net income to its shareholders, consistent with its investment objectives and as required by the Code. If sufficient income (inclusive of net investment income and short-term capital gains) is not available on a monthly basis, a Fund will distribute long-term capital gains and\/or return capital to its stockholders in order to maintain a level distribution. Each of the above-listed Funds is currently not relying on any exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the \u201c1940 Act\u201d). Each Fund expects that distributions under the Plan will exceed current income and capital gains and therefore will likely include a return of capital. Each Fund may make additional distributions from time to time, including additional capital gain distributions at the end of the taxable year, if required to meet requirements imposed by the Code and\/or the 1940 Act.<\/p>\n

\nEach Fund\u2019s estimated sources of the distributions paid February 28, 2025 and for its current fiscal year are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

2<\/sup>The Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net-realized capital gains in the current fiscal year; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder\u2019s investment is paid back to the shareholder. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with \u2018yield\u2019 or \u2018income\u2019. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund\u2019s net asset value per share.<\/p>\n

The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates and are being provided to you pursuant to regulatory requirements and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon each Fund\u2019s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. Each Fund will send its stockholders a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will illustrate how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
