APRIL 30, 2008


A Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholder

Over the past several months, financial markets have been buffeted by the housing recession, the credit market unraveling

and related liquidity freeze and steadily rising commodity prices. Counterbalancing these difficulties were booming export

activity, a robust non-financial corporate sector and, notably, aggressive and timely monetary and fiscal policy actions.

Amid the market tumult, the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) intervened with a series of moves to bolster liquidity and

ensure financial market stability. Since September 2007, the central bank slashed the target federal funds rate 325 basis

points (3.25%), bringing the rate to 2.0% as of period-end. Of greater magnitude, however, were the Fed’s other policy

decisions, which included opening the discount window directly to broker dealers and investment banks and backstopping

the unprecedented rescue of Bear Stearns.

The Fed’s response to the financial crisis helped to improve credit conditions and investor mood. After hitting a low point

on March 17 (coinciding with the collapse of Bear Stearns), equity markets found a welcome respite in April, when the

S&P 500 Index of U.S. stocks posted positive monthly performance for the first time since October 2007. International

markets, which outpaced those of the U.S. for much of 2007, saw a reversal in that trend, as effects of the credit crisis and

downward pressures on growth were far-reaching.

In contrast to equity markets, Treasury securities rallied (yields fell as prices correspondingly rose), as a broad “flight-

to–quality” theme persisted. The yield on 10-year Treasury issues, which touched 5.30% in June 2007 (its highest level

in five years), fell to 4.04% by year-end and to 3.77% by April 30. Treasury issues relinquished some of their gains in April,

however, as investor appetite for risk returned and other high-quality fixed income sectors outperformed.

Problems within the monoline insurance industry and the failure of auctions for auction rate securities plagued the

municipal bond market, driving yields higher and prices lower across the curve. However, in conjunction with the more

recent shift in sentiment, the sector delivered strong performance in the final month of the reporting period.

Overall, the major benchmark indexes generated results that generally reflected heightened investor risk aversion:

Fund Summary as of April 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

Portfolio Management Commentary

How did the Fund perform?
The Fund outperformed both its Reference Portfolio and the all-equity
benchmark for the six-month period ended April 30, 2008. The Fund
invests in both equities and bonds; therefore, the Reference Portfolio
provides a truer representation of the Fund’s composition and a more
comparable means for measurement.

What factors influenced performance?
Relative to the Reference Portfolio, the Fund’s performance benefited from
an underweight and effective security selection in the U.S. and Australia,
as well as from an overweight and stock selection in Brazil. On a sector
basis, strong stock selection in energy, financials, consumer discretionary
and consumer staples enhanced relative performance. Additionally, the
Fund’s investments in U.S. Treasury issues and U.S. Treasury Inflation
Protected Securities (TIPS) benefited results, as an overall increase in risk
aversion among investors benefited high-quality government securities.
Conversely, an overweight position and disappointing stock selection in
South Korea detracted from the Fund’s relative performance, as did
stock selection in Canada. Security selection in the materials and
healthcare sectors also hindered results.

Describe recent portfolio activity.
The Fund’s overall equity allocation increased from 54.4% of net assets to
55.4% at period-end. Allocation increases in the U.S., Africa/Middle East
and Latin America were partially offset by decreases in Asia and Europe.
From a sector perspective, the Fund’s exposure to healthcare, consumer

staples and information technology increased over the period, while expo-
sure to financials, consumer discretionary and energy was reduced.
The Fund’s allocation to fixed income increased from 29.1% of net
assets to 34.5% due to increases in U.K. Gilts, U.S. agencies, European
government bonds and Japanese inflation-linked bonds. Accordingly, the
Fund’s cash equivalent holdings decreased from 16.5% of net assets to
10.1% at period-end.

Describe Fund positioning at period-end.
Relative to its Reference Portfolio, the Fund ended the period moderately
underweight in equities. Within that allocation, the Fund maintained an
overweight in Asian stocks and Latin American equities, while it held
underweights in U.S. stocks and European equities. The Fund was
underweight in fixed income securities, notably non-USD and, conse-
quently, overweight in cash equivalents.
On a sector basis, the Fund held overweights in materials, telecommuni-
cation services, healthcare and industrials, and was underweight in con-
sumer discretionary, financials, information technology, utilities and
consumer staples.
With respect to currency exposure, the Fund was underweight in the U.S.
dollar, the euro and the British pound, and maintained overweights in
the Swiss franc, the Japanese yen and the Brazilian real. Additionally,
the Fund had small overweight positions in the Singapore dollar, the
Malaysian ringgit and the Indian rupee.

Total Return Based on a $10,000 Investment

* Assuming maximum sales charge, if any, transaction costs and other operating expenses, including advisory fees.

  About Fund Performance

Institutional Shares are not subject to any sales charge. Institutional
Shares bear no ongoing distribution or service fees and are available
only to eligible investors.

Investor A Shares incur a maximum initial sales charge (front-end load)
of 5.25% and a service fee of 0.25% per year (but no distribution fee).

Investor B Shares are subject to a maximum contingent deferred sales
charge of 4.50% declining to 0% after six years. In addition, Investor B
Shares are subject to a distribution fee of 0.75% per year and a service
fee of 0.25% per year. These shares automatically convert to Investor A
Shares after approximately eight years. (There is no initial sales charge
for automatic share conversions.) All returns for periods greater than
eight years reflect this conversion.

Investor C Shares are subject to a distribution fee of 0.75% per year
and a service fee of 0.25% per year. In addition, Investor C Shares are
subject to a 1% contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed within
one year of purchase.

Class R Shares do not incur a maximum initial sales charge (front-end
load) or deferred sales charge. These shares are subject to a distribution
fee of 0.25% per year and a service fee of 0.25% per year. Class R
Shares are available only to certain retirement plans. Prior to inception,
Class R Share performance results are those of the Institutional Shares
(which have no distribution or service fees) restated to reflect Class R
Share fees.

Disclosure of Expenses

Shareholders of this Fund may incur the following charges: (a) expenses
related to transactions, including sales charges, redemption fees and
exchange fees; and (b) operating expenses including advisory fees,
distribution fees including 12b-1 fees, and other Fund expenses. The
expense example on page 5 (which is based on a hypothetical investment
of $1,000 invested on November 1, 2007 and held through April 30,
2008) is intended to assist shareholders both in calculating expenses
based on an investment in the Fund and in comparing these expenses
with similar costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The table provides information about actual account values and actual
expenses. In order to estimate the expenses a shareholder paid during
the period covered by this report, shareholders can divide their account
value by $1,000 and then multiply the result by the number correspon-
ding to their share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid
During the Period.”

Performance information reflects past performance and does not guar-
antee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than
the performance data quoted. Refer to www.blackrock.com/funds
to obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Performance results do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a share-
holder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.
The Fund may charge a 2% redemption fee for sales or exchanges of
shares within 30 days of purchase or exchange. Performance data does
not reflect this potential fee. Figures shown in the performance tables
on pages 4 and 5 assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain
distributions, if any, at net asset value on the ex-dividend date. Investment
return and principal value of shares will fluctuate so that shares, when
redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Dividends
paid to each class of shares will vary because of the different levels of
service, distribution and transfer agency fees applicable to each class,
which are deducted from the income available to be paid to shareholders.
The Fund’s manager waived a portion of its fee. Without such waiver, the
Fund’s returns would have been lower.

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values
and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio
and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses. In order
to assist shareholders in comparing the ongoing expenses of investing
in this Fund and other funds, compare the 5% hypothetical example
with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in other funds’
shareholder reports.

The expenses shown in the table are intended to highlight shareholders’
ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional expenses, such as
sales charges, redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypo-
thetical table is useful in comparing ongoing expenses only, and will
not help shareholders determine the relative total expenses of owning
different funds. If these transactional expenses were included, shareholder
expenses would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Significant Accounting Policies:

BlackRock Global Allocation Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as
a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund's
financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting princi-
ples generally accepted in the United States of America, which may
require the use of management accruals and estimates. Actual results
may differ from these estimates. The Fund offers multiple classes of
shares. Institutional Shares are sold without a sales charge and only to
certain eligible investors. Investor A Shares are generally sold with a
front-end sales charge. Investor B and Investor C Shares may be subject
to a contingent deferred sales charge. Class R Shares are sold only to
certain retirement plans. All classes of shares have identical voting, divi-
dend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions,
except that Investor A, Investor B, Investor C and Class R Shares bear
certain expenses related to the shareholder servicing of such shares,
and Investor B, Investor C and Class R Shares also bear certain expens-
es related to the distribution of such shares. Each class has exclusive
voting rights with respect to matters relating to its shareholder servicing
and distribution expenditures (except that Investor B shareholders may
vote on material changes to the Investor A distribution plan).

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed
by the Fund:

Valuation of Investments: Equity investments traded on a recognized
securities exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market System are valued
at the last reported sale price that day or the NASDAQ official closing
price, if applicable. Equity investments traded on a recognized securities
exchange for which there were no sales on that day are valued at the
last available bid (long positions) or ask (short positions) price. Financial
futures contracts traded on exchanges are valued at their last sale price.
Swap agreements are valued by quoted fair values received daily by the
Fund’s pricing service. Short-term securities are valued at amortized cost.

Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the last bid
and ask prices at the close of the options market in which the options
trade and previously were valued at the last sales price as of the close
of options trading on applicable exchanges. Over-the-counter options are
valued by an independent pricing service using a mathematical model
which incorporates a number of market data factors.

The Fund values its bond investments on the basis of last available bid
price or current market quotations provided by dealers or pricing ser-
vices selected under the supervision of the Board of Directors (the
“Board”). In determining the value of a particular investment, pricing
services may use certain information with respect to transactions in such
investments, quotations from dealers, pricing matrixes, market transac-
tions in comparable investments, various relationships observed in the
market between investments and calculated yield measures based on
valuation technology commonly employed in the market for such invest-

ments. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at net
asset value each business day.

In the event that application of these methods of valuation results in
a price for an investment which is deemed not to be representative of
the market value of such investment, the investment will be valued by
a method approved by the Board as reflecting fair value (“Fair Value
Assets”). When determining the price for Fair Value Assets, the invest-
ment advisor and/or sub-advisor seeks to determine the price that the
Fund might reasonably expect to receive from the current sale of that
asset in an arm's-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be
based upon all available factors that the investment advisor and/or
sub-advisor deems relevant. The pricing of all Fair Value Assets is sub-
sequently reported to the Board or a committee thereof.

Generally, trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each
day at various times prior to the close of business on the New York Stock
Exchange (“NYSE”). The values of such securities used in computing the
net assets of the Fund are determined as of such times. Foreign currency
exchange rates will generally be determined as of the close of business
on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the values of such securities
and such exchange rates may occur between the times at which they
are determined and the close of business on the NYSE that may not
be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net assets. If events (for
example, a company announcement, market volatility or a natural disas-
ter) occur during such periods that are expected to materially affect the
value of such securities, those securities will be valued at their fair value
as determined in good faith by the Board or by the investment advisor
using a pricing service and/or procedures approved by the Board.

Derivative Financial Instruments: The Fund may engage in various port-
folio investment strategies to increase the return of the Fund and to
hedge, or protect, its exposure to interest rate movements and move-
ments in the securities markets. Losses may arise if the value of the con-
tract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the price of the under-
lying security, or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

Financial futures contracts — The Fund may purchase or sell financial
futures contracts and options on such financial futures contracts.
Financial futures contracts are contracts for delayed delivery of secu-
rities at a specific future date and at a specific price or yield. Upon
entering into a contract, the Fund deposits and maintains as colla-
teral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the
transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to
receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the
daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments
are known as variation margin and are recognized by the Fund as
unrealized gains or losses. When the contract is closed, the Fund
records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the
value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the
time it was closed.

36 BLACKROCK GLOBAL ALLOCATION FUND, INC.

APRIL 30, 2008


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Forward foreign exchange contracts — The Fund may enter into for-
ward foreign exchange contracts as a hedge against either specific
transactions or portfolio positions. Forward foreign exchange con-
tracts, when used by the Fund, help to manage the overall exposure
to the foreign currency backing some of the investments held by the
Fund. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in mar-
ket value is recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When
the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal
to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and
the value at the time it was closed.

Options — The Fund may purchase and write call and put options.
When the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium
received by the Fund is reflected as an asset and an equivalent lia-
bility. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to
reflect the current market value of the option written. When a security
is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related
premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis
of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds
of the security sold. When an option expires (or the Fund enters into
a closing transaction), the Fund realizes a gain or loss on the option
to the extent of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss to
the extent the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premium
received or paid).

If an option is exercised, the premium paid or received is added to
the cost of the purchase or the proceeds from the sale in determin-
ing whether a Fund has realized a gain or a loss on investment trans-
actions.

A call option gives the purchaser of the option the right (but not the
obligation) to buy, and obligates the seller to sell (when the option is
exercised), the underlying position at the exercise price at any time
or at a specified time during the option period. A put option gives the
holder the right to sell and obligates the writer to buy the underlying
position at the exercise price at any time or at a specified time dur-
ing the option period.

Swaps — The Fund may enter into swap agreements, which are OTC
contracts in which the Fund and a counterparty agree to make peri-
odic net payments on a specified notional amount. These periodic
payments received or made by the Fund are recorded in the accom-
panying Statement of Operations as realized gains or losses, respec-
tively. Gains or losses are also realized upon termination of the swap
agreements. Swaps are marked-to market daily and changes in value
are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation). When the
swap is terminated, the Fund will record a realized gain or loss equal
to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing
transaction and the Fund’s basis in the contract, if any.

Credit default swaps — Credit default swaps are agreements in which
one party pays fixed periodic payments to a counterparty in consider-
ation for a guarantee from the counterparty to make a specific pay-
ment should a negative credit event take place.

Interest rate swaps — Interest rate swaps are agreements in which
one party pays a floating rate of interest on a notional principal
amount and receives a fixed rate of interest on the same notional
principal amount for a specified period of time. Alternatively, a party
may pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate. Interest rate swaps
are efficient as asset/liability management tools. In more complex
swaps, the notional principal amount may decline (or amortize)
over time.

Preferred Stock: The Fund may invest in preferred stocks. Preferred
stock has a preference over common stock in liquidation (and generally
in receiving dividends as well) but is subordinated to the liabilities of
the issuer in all respects. As a general rule, the market value of preferred
stock with a fixed dividend rate and no conversion element varies
inversely with interest rates and perceived credit risk, while the market
price of convertible preferred stock generally also reflects some element
of conversion value. Because preferred stock is junior to debt securities
and other obligations of the issuer, deterioration in the credit quality
of the issuer will cause greater changes in the value of a preferred
stock than in a more senior debt security with similar stated yield
characteristics. Unlike interest payments on debt securities, preferred
stock dividends are payable only if declared by the issuer’s board of
directors. Preferred stock also may be subject to optional or mandatory
redemption provisions.

Short Sales: When the Fund engages in a short sale, an amount equal
to the proceeds received by the Fund is reflected as an asset and an
equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-
market to reflect the market value of the short sale. When the Fund
makes a short sale, it may borrow the security sold short and deliver it
to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale as collateral
for its obligation to deliver the security upon conclusion of the sale. The
Fund maintains a segregated account of securities as collateral for the
short sales. The Fund is exposed to market risk based on the amount, if
any, that the market value of the security exceeds the market value of
the securities in the segregated account. Thus, a short sale of a security
involves the risk that instead of declining, the price of the security sold
short will rise. The short sale of securities involves the possibility of a
theoretically unlimited loss since there is a theoretically unlimited poten-
tial for the market price of the security sold short to increase. The fund is
required to repay the counterparty any dividends or interest received on
the security sold short.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

A gain, limited to the price at which the Fund sold the security short, or
a loss, unlimited as to the dollar amount. will be recognized upon the
termination of a short sale if the market price is greater or less than the
proceeds originally received.

TBA Commitments: The Fund may enter into to-be-announced (“TBA”)
commitments to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future
date. TBA commitments are considered securities in themselves, and
involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased or
sold declines or increases prior to settlement date, which is in addition
to the risk of decline in the value of the Fund’s other assets. Unsettled
TBA commitments are valued at the current market value of the under-
lying securities, according to the procedures described under “Valuation
of Investments.”

Zero Coupon Bonds: The Fund may invest in zero coupon bonds, which
are normally issued at a significant discount from face value and do
not provide for periodic interest payments. Zero-coupon bonds may
experience greater volatility in market value then similar maturity debt
obligations, which provide for regular interest payments.

Foreign Currency Transactions: Foreign currency amounts are trans-
lated into United States dollars on the following basis: (i) market value
of investment securities, assets and liabilities at the current rate of
exchange; and (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income
and expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective
dates of such transactions.

The Fund reports foreign currency related transactions as components of
realized gains for financial reporting purposes, whereas such compo-
nents are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

Segregation: In cases in which the 1940 Act and the interpretive
positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) require
that the Fund segregate assets in connection with certain investments
(e.g., swaps or futures contracts), the Fund will, consistent with certain
interpretive letters issued by the SEC, designate on its books and
records cash or other liquid debt securities having a market value at
least equal to the amount that would otherwise be required to be physi-
cally segregated.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income: Investment tran-
sactions are recorded on the dates the transactions are entered into
(the trade dates). Realized gains and losses on security transactions
are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded
on the ex-dividend dates. Dividends from foreign securities where the
ex-dividend date may have passed are subsequently recorded when the
Fund has determined the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized
on the accrual basis. The Fund amortizes all premiums and discounts
and debt securities. Income and realized and unrealized gains and loss-
es are allocated daily to each class based on its relative net assets.

Dividends and Distributions: Dividends and distributions of capital gains
are recorded on the ex-dividend dates.

Securities Lending: The Fund may lend securities to financial institutions
that provide cash or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. govern-
ment as collateral, which will be maintained at all times in an amount
equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the loaned securi-
ties. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close
of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is deliv-
ered to the Fund on the next business day. The Fund typically receives
the income on the loaned securities but does not receive the income on
the collateral. Where the Fund receives cash collateral, it may invest such
collateral and retain the amount earned on such investment, net of any
amount rebated to the borrower. The Fund may receive a flat fee for its
loans. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the bor-
rower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the
standard time period for settlement of securities transactions. The Fund
may pay reasonable lending agent, administrative and custodial fees in
connection with its loans. In the event that the borrower defaults on its
obligation to return borrowed securities because of insolvency or for any
other reason, the Fund could experience delays and costs in gaining
access to the collateral. The Fund also could suffer a loss where the
value of the collateral falls below the market value of the borrowed secu-
rities, in the event of borrower default or in the event of losses on invest-
ments made with cash collateral.

Income Taxes: It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment compa-
nies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its share-
holders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Under the
applicable foreign tax law, a withholding tax may be imposed on interest,
dividends and capital gains at various rates.

Effective April 30, 2008, the Fund implemented Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No.
109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes the minimum recognition threshold a
tax position must meet in connection with accounting for uncertainties in
income tax positions taken or expected to be taken by an entity, includ-
ing investment companies, before being measured and recognized in the
financial statements. The investment advisor has evaluated the applica-
tion of FIN 48 to the Fund, and has determined that the adoption of FIN
48 does not have a material impact on the Fund’s financial statements.
The Fund files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns.
No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of
limitations on the Fund’s tax returns remains open for the years ended
October 31, 2004 through October 31, 2006. The statutes of limitations
on the Fund’s state and local tax returns may remain open for an addi-
tional year depending upon the jurisdiction.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In September 2006, Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”
(“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a frame-
work for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. The impact the Fund’s financial statement disclosures,
if any, is currently being assessed.

In addition, in February 2007, Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities” (“FAS 159”), was issued and is effective for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted
as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November
15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of FAS
157. FAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently
required to be measured at fair value. FAS 159 also establishes presen-
tation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons
between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar
types of assets and liabilities. The impact of the Fund’s financial state-
ment disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.

In March 2008, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161,
“Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“FAS 161”) was issued and is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. FAS 161 is
intended to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments by
requiring enhanced disclosure that enables investors to understand how
and why an entity uses derivatives, how derivatives are accounted for,
and how derivative instruments affect an entity’s results of operations
and financial position. The investment advisor is currently evaluating the
implications of FAS 161 and the impact of the Fund’s financial state-
ment disclosures, if any, is currently being assessed.

Other: Expenses directly related to the Fund or its classes are charged to
the Fund or class. Other operating expenses shared by several Funds are
pro-rated among those Funds on the basis of relative net assets or other
appropriate methods. Other expenses of the Fund are allocated daily to
each class based on its relative net assets.

2. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions
with Affiliates:

The Fund has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with
BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”), an indirect, wholly owned
subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc. to provide investment advisory and admin-
istration services. Merrill Lynch & Co. Inc. (“Merrill Lynch”) and The
PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (“PNC”) are principal owners of
BlackRock, Inc.

The Advisor is responsible for the management of the Fund's portfolio
and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain
other services necessary to the operations of the Fund. For such ser-
vices, the Fund pays the Advisor a monthly fee of 0.75%, on an annual
basis, of the average daily value of the Fund's net assets. The Advisor
has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of its fees payable by the Fund
so that such fee is reduced for average daily net assets of the Fund
as follows:

In Excess of    Not Exceeding    Waived to 

 
 
$2.5 billion    $ 5.0 billion    0.700% 
$5 billion    $ 7.5 billion    0.650% 
$7.5 billion    $ 10.0 billion    0.625% 
$10 billion    $ 15.0 billion    0.600% 
$15 billion        0.575% 

 
 

For the six months ended April 30, 2008, the Advisor earned fees of
$91,237,300, of which $15,383,649 was waived. In addition, the
Advisor has entered into sub-advisory agreements with BlackRock
Investment Management, LLC (“BIM”) and BlackRock Asset Management
U.K. Limited, both affiliates of the Advisor, under which the Advisor pays
each sub-advisor for services it provides, a monthly fee that is a per-
centage of the investment advisory fee paid by the Fund to the Advisor.
For the six months ended April 30, 2008, the Fund reimbursed the
Advisor $199,703 for certain accounting services, which is included in
accounting services expenses in the Statement of Operations.

The Fund has entered into separate Distribution Agreements and
Distribution Plans with FAM Distributors, Inc. (“FAMD”) and BlackRock
Distributors, Inc. and its affiliates (“BDI”) (collectively, the “Distributor”).
FAMD is a wholly owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch Group, Inc., and BDI
is an affiliate of BlackRock, Inc.

Pursuant to the Distribution Plans adopted by the Fund in accordance
with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund pays the Distributor
ongoing service and distribution fees. The fees are accrued daily and
paid monthly at annual rates based upon the average daily net assets
of the shares as follows:

    Service    Distribution 
    Fee    Fee 

 
 
Investor A    0.25%     
Investor B    0.25%    0.75% 
Investor C    0.25%    0.75% 
Class R    0.25%    0.25%

Pursuant to sub-agreements with the Distributor, broker-dealers, includ-
ing Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“MLPF&S”), a
wholly owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch, and each of the Distributors,
provide shareholder servicing and distribution services to the Fund. The
ongoing service fee and/or distribution fee compensates the Distributor
and each broker-dealer for providing shareholder servicing and/or
distribution-related services to Investor A, Investor B, Investor C and
Class R shareholders.

For the six months ended April 30, 2008, the affiliates earned under-
writing discounts, direct commissions and dealer concessions on sales
of the Fund's Investor A Shares totaling $2,182,965.

For the six months ended April 30, 2008, affiliates received contingent
deferred sales charges of $673,501 and $746,354 relating to tran-
sactions in Investor B and Investor C Shares, respectively. Furthermore,
affiliates received contingent deferred sales charges of $99,223 relat-
ing to transactions subject to front-end sales charge waivers in
Investor A Shares.

The Advisor maintains a call center, which is responsible for providing
certain shareholder services to the Fund, such as responding to share-
holder inquiries and processing transactions based upon instructions
from shareholders with respect to the subscription and redemption of
Fund shares. During the six months ended April 30, 2008, the following
amounts have been accrued by the Fund to reimburse the Advisor for
costs incurred running the call center, which are a component of the
transfer agent fees in the accompanying Statement of Operations.

    Call Center 
    Fees 

 
Institutional    $16,621 
Investor A    $75,954 
Investor B    $13,084 
Investor C    $63,542 
Class R    $ 1,460 

 

The Fund has received an exemptive order from the Securities and
Exchange Commission permitting it to lend portfolio securities to MLPF&S
or its affiliates. As of April 30, 2008, the Fund loaned securities with a
value of $2,620,232. Pursuant to that order, the Fund has retained BIM,
as the securities lending agent for a fee based on a share of the returns
on investment of cash collateral. BIM may, on behalf of the Fund, invest
cash collateral received by the Fund for such loans, among other things,
in a private investment company managed by the Advisor or in registered
money market funds advised by the Advisor or its affiliates. For the six
months ended April 30, 2008, BIM received $110,737 in security
lending agent fees.

In addition, MLPF&S received $294,064 in commissions on the execu-
tion of portfolio security transactions for the Fund for the six months
ended April 30, 2008

PFPC, Inc., an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of PNC and an affiliate
of the Advisor, is the Fund's transfer agent. Each class of the Fund bears
the costs of transfer agent fees associated with such respective classes.
Transfer agency fees borne by each class of the Fund are comprised of
those fees charged for all shareholder communications including share-
holder reports, dividend and distribution notices, and proxy materials for
shareholders meetings, as well as per account and per transaction fees
related to servicing and maintenance of shareholder accounts, including
the issuing, redeeming and transferring of shares of each class of the
Fund, 12b-1 fee calculation, check writing, anti-money laundering
services, and customer identification services.

Certain officers and/or directors of the Fund are officers and/or
directors of BlackRock, Inc. or its affiliates.

Notes to Financial Statements (concluded)

5. Short-Term Borrowings:

The Fund, along with certain other funds managed by the Advisor and its
affiliates, is party to a $500,000,000 credit agreement with a group of
lenders. The Fund may borrow under the credit agreement to fund share-
holder redemptions and for other lawful purposes other than for lever-
age. The Fund may borrow up to the maximum amount allowable under
the Fund's current Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information,
subject to various other legal, regulatory or contractual limits. On
November 21, 2007, the credit agreement was renewed for one year
under substantially the same terms. The Fund pays a commitment fee of
0.06% per annum based on the Fund's pro rata share of the unused
portion of the credit agreement, which is included in miscellaneous
expenses in the Statement of Operations. Amounts borrowed under the
credit agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at each fund's elec-
tion, the federal funds rate plus 0.35% or a base rate as defined in the
credit agreement. The Fund did not borrow under the credit agreement
during the six months ended April 30, 2008.

6. Commitments:

At April 30, 2008, the Fund had entered into foreign exchange contracts,
in addition to the contracts listed on the schedule of investments, under
which it had agreed to purchase various foreign currencies with an
approximate value of $555,334.

7. Capital Loss Carryforward:

As of October 31, 2007, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of
$19,493,822, of which $5,337,789 expires in 2008, $8,474,168
expires in 2009, $3,257,086 expires in 2010 and $2,424,779
expires in 2011. This amount will be available to offset future realized
capital gains.

8. Subsequent Event:

Effective May 13, 2008, the Advisor has changed the voluntary waiver
of its investment advisory fees. The fees will now be reduced by the vol-
untary waiver for the average daily net assets of the Fund as follows:

        Rate 
In Excess of    Not Exceeding    Waived to 

 
 
$10 billion    $15 billion    0.69% 
$15 billion    $20 billion    0.68% 
$20 billion    $25 billion    0.67% 
$25 billion    $30 billion    0.65% 
$30 billion    $40 billion    0.63% 
$40 billion        0.62%
