BlackRock Asset Management Canada Limited announces today the revised estimated
annual reinvested distributions for the iShares exchange-traded funds for the
2010 tax year. These annual reinvested distributions generally represent
realized capital gains within the funds. The reinvested distributions are not
paid in cash but will be reported as taxable distributions and can be used to
increase the investor's adjusted cost base of the fund. These estimated
reinvested distributions do not include the fourth quarter cash distributions
which are reported in a separate press release. These estimates replace the
previous estimates issued in a press release dated November 18, 2010.
Unitholders of record on December 30, 2010 will receive reinvested distributions
payable on December 31, 2010. The ex-dividend date will be December 24, 2010.
The actual taxable amounts of reinvested and cash distributions for 2010,
including the tax characteristics of the distributions, will be reported to
brokers (through CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc.) early in 2011.
The following chart shows the estimated annual reinvested distributions per unit
for each of the iShares funds.
