Objectives and Investment Policy

The Share Class is a share class of a Fund which aims to achieve a return on your investment, through a combination of capital growth and income on the Fund’s

assets, which reflects the return of the STOXX Global Metaverse Index, the Fund’s benchmark index (Index).

The Share Class, via the Fund is passively managed, and aims to invest in equity securities (e.g. shares) that, so far as possible and practicable, make up the Index.

The Index seeks to exclude companies based on the index provider’s environmental, social and governance (ESG) exclusionary criteria. Issuers involved in the following

business lines/activities (or related activities) are excluded: controversial weapons, weapons (such as small arms and military contracting), tobacco, nuclear power,

thermal coal, conventional oil and gas, unconventional oil and gas. Companies classified as violating commonly accepted international norms and standards, or

involved in severe ESG controversies, are also excluded.

The Index aims to reflect the performance of a subset of equity securities of eligible developed and emerging market companies within the STOXX Global Total Market

Index (Parent Index) which invest in the development of certain metaverse related technologies. Metaverse is an emerging concept that seeks to simulates the real

world or imagines a world beyond it, integrating digital and physical interactions for an immersive experience. The index provider uses data generated from

independent research providers to identify issuers which have exposure to the following metaverse technology themes (which may change over time): virtual reality, 3D

image modelling, avatar, graphics processing unit, blockchain and non-fungible tokens (“Metaverse Technology Themes”). Only those issuers which are determined by

the index provider to have either (i) sufficient patent specialization or (ii) hold high quality patents are eligible for inclusion in the Index.

The Index includes small, mid and large capitalisation constituents of the Parent Index. At each rebalance the index constituents are weighted according to adjusted

equal weights and adjusted by the metaverse patent specialization score of each company.

The Fund may continue to hold securities which no longer comply with the ESG requirements of the Fund's Index until such time as the relevant securities cease to

form part of the Index and it is possible and practicable (in the Investment Manager's view) to liquidate the position.

The Fund intends to replicate the Index by holding the equity securities, which make up the Index, in similar proportions to it. The Fund may use financial derivative

instruments (FDIs) (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets) to help achieve the Fund’s investment objective. The use of FDIs

is expected to be limited for this share class.

The Fund may also engage in short-term secured lending of its investments to certain eligible third parties to generate additional income to off-set the costs of the

Fund.

Recommendation: This Fund is suitable for medium to long term investment, though the Fund may also be suitable for shorter term exposure to the Index.

Your shares will be accumulating shares (i.e. income will be included in their value).

Your shares will be denominated in US Dollar, the Fund's base currency.

The shares are listed on one or more stock exchanges and may be traded in currencies other than their base currency. The performance of your shares may be

affected by this currency difference. In normal circumstances, only authorised participants (e.g. select financial institutions) may deal in shares (or interests in shares)

directly with the Fund. Other investors can deal in shares (or interests in shares) daily through an intermediary on stock exchange (s) on which the shares are traded.

Indicative net asset value is published on relevant stock exchanges websites. For more information on the Fund, Share Class, risks and charges, please see the Fund's prospectus, available on the product pages at www.blackrock.com
