* In order to comply with the requirements of Section 19 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), each of the Funds noted above posted to the DTC bulletin board and sent to its shareholders of record as of the applicable record date a Section 19 notice with the previous distribution payment. The Section 19 notice was provided for informational purposes only and not for tax reporting purposes. This information can be found in the "Closed-End Funds" section of www.blackrock.com. As applicable, the final determination of the source and tax characteristics of all distributions in 2025 will be made after the end of the year.

BlackRock Capital Allocation Term Trust $(BCAT)$ and BlackRock ESG Capital Allocation Term Trust $(ECAT)$ have adopted a managed distribution plan (a "Plan") to support a level monthly distribution of income, capital gains and/or return of capital. BCAT and ECAT currently distribute a monthly annualized rate of 20% of each Fund's 12-month rolling average daily net asset value calculated 5 business days prior to declaration date of each distribution. The December 2025 distribution for each of BCAT and ECAT was calculated based on the average net asset value from 12/5/2024 through 12/4/2025. Below are the 12-month rolling average daily net asset values used to calculate BCAT and ECAT's December distributions:

BCAT: $15.721713

ECAT: $16.711992

The fixed amounts distributed per share or distribution rate, as applicable, are subject to change at the discretion of each Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees. Under its Plan, each 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"). 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 shareholders in order to maintain a level distribution.
