BlackRock MuniHoldings New York Quality Fund, Inc. (MHN)

It's finally happening: Management fees on our favorite 8%+ paying assets—closed-end funds (CEFs)—are falling. And some are sending their already soaring dividends even higher, too.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The BlackRock closed-end funds (each a “Fund,” and collectively the “Funds”) listed below announced today the implementation of voluntary management fee waivers, effective May 1, 2024. Under the terms of this initiative, BlackRock Advisors, LLC (“BlackRock”) intends to waive management fees if certain conditions, detailed below, are met. In addition, BlackRock will be waiving an additional one-time $2 million in management/advisory fees pro-rata across the Funds. “We believe this fee waiver is a meaningful enhancement to these Funds and will increase tax-exempt income to shareholders, consistent with their investment objective. We will continue to evaluate options for improving our closed-end funds for the benefit of all shareholders, as we work to protect and advance their best interests,” said R. Glenn Hubbard, Chair of the Board of BlackRock Closed-End Funds.

A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s 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 ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund’s net asset value per share. 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’s 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.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the Fund’s current distributions or from the terms of the Fund’s Plan. BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. (NYSE: BKT) and BlackRock Taxable Municipal Bond Trust (NYSE: BBN) have adopted a Plan whereby the Fund will make fixed monthly distributions to common stockholders and will distribute all available net income to its stockholders, consistent with its investment objective and as required by the Code. The fixed amount distributed per share is subject to change at the discretion of BKT and BBN’s Board. If sufficient net income 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. BKT and BBN are currently not relying on any exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Each Fund expects that distributions under the Plan will exceed current income and capital gains and therefore will likely include a return of capital. BKT and BBN 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. BKT and BBN’s estimated sources of the distributions paid as of April 28, 2023 and for its current fiscal year are as follows: Estimated Allocations as of April 28, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.088200 $0.034947 (40%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.053253 (60%) BBN2 $0.102900 $0.072340 (70%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.030560 (30%) Estimated Allocations for the Fiscal Year through April 28, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.352800 $0.139668 (40%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.213132 (60%) BBN2 $0.411600 $0.307446 (75%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.104154 (25%) 2The 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.

Each Plan will be subject to ongoing review by the Board to determine whether the Plan should be continued, modified or terminated.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Please replace the release dated April 11, 2023, with the following corrected version due to changes in the table, "Summary of share repurchase activity since Repurchase Program inception as of March 31, 2023". The updated release reads: BLACKROCK CLOSED-END FUND SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM UPDATE BlackRock Advisors, LLC (“BlackRock”) released today share repurchase activity for certain BlackRock-advised closed-end funds (the “Funds”) during the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The Funds have authorized open market share repurchase programs (the “Repurchase Programs”) pursuant to which each Fund may repurchase, through November 30, 2023, up to 5% of its outstanding common shares in open market transactions. The Repurchase Programs seek to enhance shareholder value by purchasing Fund shares trading at a discount from their net asset value (“NAV”) per share, which could result in incremental accretion to a Fund’s NAV.

Under its Plan, each Plan Fund will distribute all available investment income to its shareholders, consistent with its investment objectives and as required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s 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 ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund’s net asset value per share. 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’s 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.

BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. (NYSE: BKT) and BlackRock Taxable Municipal Bond Trust (NYSE: BBN) have adopted a Plan whereby the Fund will make fixed monthly distributions to common stockholders and will distribute all available net income to its stockholders, consistent with its investment objective and as required by the Code. The fixed amount distributed per share is subject to change at the discretion of BKT and BBN’s Board. If sufficient net income 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. BKT and BBN are currently not relying on any exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Each Fund expects that distributions under the Plan will exceed current income and capital gains and therefore will likely include a return of capital. BKT and BBN 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. BKT and BBN’s estimated sources of the distributions paid as of March 31, 2023 and for its current fiscal year are as follows: Estimated Allocations as of March 31, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.088200 $0.031827 (36%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.056373 (64%) BBN2 $0.102900 $0.072758 (71%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.030142 (29%) Estimated Allocations for the Fiscal Year through March 31, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.264600 $0.104722 (40%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.159878 (60%) BBN2 $0.308700 $0.235129 (76%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.073571 (24%) 2The 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.

The Board may amend the terms of a Plan or suspend or terminate a Plan at any time without prior notice to the Fund’s shareholders if it deems such actions to be in the best interest of the Fund or its shareholders. The amendment or termination of a Plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's shares.

A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s 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 ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund’s net asset value per share. 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’s 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.

BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. (NYSE: BKT) and BlackRock Taxable Municipal Bond Trust (NYSE: BBN) have adopted a Plan whereby the Fund will make fixed monthly distributions to common stockholders and will distribute all available net income to its stockholders, consistent with its investment objective and as required by the Code. The fixed amount distributed per share is subject to change at the discretion of BKT and BBN’s Board. If sufficient net income 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. BKT and BBN are currently not relying on any exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Each Fund expects that distributions under the Plan will exceed current income and capital gains and therefore will likely include a return of capital. BKT and BBN 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. BKT and BBN’s estimated sources of the distributions paid as of February 28, 2023 and for its current fiscal year are as follows: Estimated Allocations as of February 28, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.088200 $0.037495 (43%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.050705 (57%) BBN2 $0.102900 $0.084357 (82%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.018543 (18%) Estimated Allocations for the Fiscal Year through February 28, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.176400 $0.072895 (41%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.103505 (59%) BBN2 $0.205800 $0.162371 (79%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.043429 (21%) 2The 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.

The Board may amend the terms of a Plan or suspend or terminate a Plan at any time without prior notice to the Fund’s shareholders if it deems such actions to be in the best interest of the Fund or its shareholders. The amendment or termination of a Plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's shares.

A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s 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 ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund’s net asset value per share. 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’s 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.

BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. (NYSE: BKT) and BlackRock Taxable Municipal Bond Trust (NYSE: BBN) have adopted a Plan whereby the Fund will make fixed monthly distributions to common stockholders and will distribute all available net income to its stockholders, consistent with its investment objective and as required by the Code. The fixed amount distributed per share is subject to change at the discretion of BKT and BBN’s Board. If sufficient net income 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. BKT and BBN are currently not relying on any exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Each Fund expects that distributions under the Plan will exceed current income and capital gains and therefore will likely include a return of capital. BKT and BBN 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. BKT and BBN’s estimated sources of the distributions paid as of January 31, 2023 and for its current fiscal year are as follows: Estimated Allocations as of January 31, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.088200 $0.035405 (40%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.052795 (60%) BBN2 $0.102900 $0.078014 (76%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.024886 (24%) Estimated Allocations for the Fiscal Year through January 31, 2023 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long-Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.088200 $0.035405 (40%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.052795 (60%) BBN2 $0.102900 $0.078014 (76%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.024886 (24%) 2The 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.

The Board may amend the terms of a Plan or suspend or terminate a Plan at any time without prior notice to the Fund’s shareholders if it deems such actions to be in the best interest of the Fund or its shareholders. The amendment or termination of a Plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's shares.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BlackRock Advisors, LLC (“BlackRock”) released today share repurchase activity for certain BlackRock-advised closed-end funds (the “Funds”) during the quarter ended December 31, 2022. The Funds have authorized open market share repurchase programs (the “Repurchase Programs”) pursuant to which each Fund may repurchase, through November 30, 2023, up to 5% of its outstanding common shares in open market transactions. The Repurchase Programs seek to enhance shareholder value by purchasing Fund shares trading at a discount from their net asset value (“NAV”) per share, which could result in incremental accretion to a Fund’s NAV. Below is a summary of share repurchase activity over this past quarter and since the inception of each Fund’s Repurchase Program: Summary of share repurchase activity during the most recent calendar quarter ended December 31, 2022: Fund Name Ticker Number of Shares Repurchased Total Amount of Shares Repurchased Total Amount of NAV Accretion Average Discount on Days Repurchased BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust BGR 83,354 $1,023,385 $147,098 -12.8% BlackRock Enhanced Global Dividend Trust BOE 589,486 $5,523,056 $779,414 -12.5% BlackRock Enhanced International Dividend Trust BGY 717,531 $3,402,256 $452,631 -11.9% BlackRock Health Sciences Trust II BMEZ 1,962,259 $30,331,774 $6,009,305 -16.7% BlackRock Science and Technology Trust II BSTZ 461,288 $7,290,822 $1,691,138 -19.0% BlackRock Innovation and Growth Trust BIGZ 4,154,800 $29,302,944 $7,733,786 -20.8% BlackRock Capital Allocation Trust BCAT 1,716,301 $24,142,297 $4,794,971 -16.6% BlackRock ESG Capital Allocation Trust ECAT 1,505,905 $20,574,889 $4,475,286 -17.9% BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust BCX 550,752 $5,389,354 $809,171 -13.2% BlackRock California Municipal Income Trust BFZ 409,086 $4,396,603 $723,743 -14.1% BlackRock MuniHoldings California Quality Fund, Inc.

A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s 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 ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund’s net asset value per share. 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’s 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.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the Fund’s current distributions or from the terms of the Fund’s Plan. BlackRock Income Trust, Inc. (NYSE: BKT) and BlackRock Taxable Municipal Bond Trust (NYSE: BBN) have adopted a Plan whereby the Fund will make fixed monthly distributions to common stockholders and will distribute all available net income to its stockholders, consistent with its investment objective and as required by the Code. The fixed amount distributed per share is subject to change at the discretion of BKT and BBN’s Board. If sufficient net income 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. BKT and BBN are currently not relying on any exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Each Fund expects that distributions under the Plan will exceed current income and capital gains and therefore will likely include a return of capital. BKT and BBN 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. BKT and BBN’s estimated sources of the distributions paid as of December 22, 2022 and for its current fiscal year are as follows: Estimated Allocations as of December 22, 2022 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long- Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.088200 $0.033984 (39%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.054216 (61%) BBN2 $0.102900 $0.077909 (76%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.024991 (24%) Estimated Allocations for the Fiscal Year through December 22, 2022 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long- Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $1.030200 $0.589077 (57%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.441123 (43%) BBN2 $1.331900 $1.109726 (83%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.222174 (17%) 2 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.

The amount distributed per share under a Plan is subject to change at the discretion of the applicable Fund’s Board. Each Plan will be subject to ongoing review by the Board to determine whether the Plan should be continued, modified or terminated. The Board may amend the terms of a Plan or suspend or terminate a Plan at any time without prior notice to the Fund’s shareholders if it deems such actions to be in the best interest of the Fund or its shareholders. The amendment or termination of a Plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's shares.

A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s 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 ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund’s net asset value per share. 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’s 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.

A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s 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 ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Fund’s net asset value per share. 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’s 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.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the Fund’s current distributions or from the terms of the Fund’s Plan. BKT and BBN have adopted a Plan whereby the Fund will make fixed monthly distributions to common stockholders and will distribute all available net income to its stockholders, consistent with its investment objective and as required by the Code. The fixed amount distributed per share is subject to change at the discretion of BKT and BBN’s Board. If sufficient net income 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. BKT and BBN are currently not relying on any exemptive relief from Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Each Fund expects that distributions under the Plan will exceed current income and capital gains and therefore will likely include a return of capital. BKT and BBN 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. BKT and BBN’s estimated sources of the distributions paid as of October 31, 2022 and for its current fiscal year are as follows: Estimated Allocations as of October 31, 2022 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long- Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.029400 $0.015760 (54%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.013640 (46%) BBN2 $0.122900 $0.083145 (68%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.039755 (32%) Estimated Allocations for the Fiscal Year through October 31, 2022 Fund Distribution Net Income Net Realized Short-Term Gains Net Realized Long- Term Gains Return of Capital BKT2 $0.284600 $0.169701 (60%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.114899 (40%) BBN2 $1.106100 $0.945493 (85%) $0 (0%) $0 (0%) $0.160607 (15%) 2The 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.

The amendment or termination of a Plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's shares.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BlackRock Advisors, LLC released today share repurchase activity for certain BlackRock closed-end funds (the “Funds”) during the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The Funds have authorized open market share repurchase programs (the “Repurchase Programs”) pursuant to which each Fund may repurchase, through November 30, 2022, up to 5% of its outstanding common shares in open market transactions. In September, BlackRock announced that the Boards of Directors/Trustees of the Funds have authorized the renewal of the Repurchase Programs through November 30, 2023. The Repurchase Programs seek to enhance shareholder value by purchasing Fund shares trading at a discount from their net asset value (“NAV”) per share, which could result in incremental accretion to a Fund’s NAV. Below is a summary of share repurchase activity over this past quarter and since the inception of each Fund’s Repurchase Program: Summary of share repurchase activity during the most recent calendar quarter ended September 30, 2022: Fund Name Ticker Number of Shares Purchased Total Amount of Shares Repurchased Total Amount of NAV Accretion BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust BGR 361,269 $4,051,879 $566,015 BlackRock California Municipal Income Trust BFZ 210,872 $2,375,882 $328,714 BlackRock Enhanced Global Dividend Trust BOE 207,535 $1,866,674 $255,735 BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust BCX 246,758 $2,165,475 $267,434 BlackRock Innovation and Growth Trust BIGZ 1,975,283 $14,811,781 $3,204,019 BlackRock Enhanced International Dividend Trust BGY 384,492 $1,762,933 $217,088 BlackRock Health Sciences Trust II BMEZ 524,542 $7,967,859 $1,451,496 BlackRock Capital Allocation Trust BCAT 703,504 $10,393,473 $1,916,063 BlackRock ESG Capital Allocation Trust ECAT 538,782 $7,739,237 $1,483,448 Summary of share repurchase activity since Repurchase Program inception: Fund Name Ticker Number of Shares Purchased Total Amount of Shares Repurchased Total Amount of NAV Accretion BlackRock Energy and Resources Trust BGR 1,689,229 $16,086,551 $2,248,675 BlackRock Enhanced Equity Dividend Trust BDJ 2,974,888 $23,626,347 $2,641,607 BlackRock Enhanced Global Dividend Trust BOE 6,153,861 $63,556,550 $8,289,899 BlackRock Enhanced International Dividend Trust BGY 6,526,106 $35,057,525 $4,405,664 BlackRock Health Sciences Trust II BMEZ 1,110,477 $17,497,814 $3,147,474 BlackRock Innovation and Growth Trust BIGZ 9,507,667 $109,684,782 $18,594,272 BlackRock Capital Allocation Trust BCAT 2,674,051 $43,493,359 $6,752,476 BlackRock ESG Capital Allocation Trust ECAT 1,819,706 $26,683,083 $5,210,819 BlackRock Resources & Commodities Strategy Trust BCX 10,990,548 $85,333,490 $12,459,469 BlackRock Science and Technology Trust BST 136,367 $2,799,570 $284,111 BlackRock Corporate High Yield Fund, Inc.
