Read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.

‡ “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses” reflect the Fund's pro rata share of the indirect fees and expenses incurred by investing in one or more acquired funds, such as mutual funds, business development companies, or other pooled investment vehicles. Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are reflected in the prices of the acquired funds and thus included in the total returns of the Fund.

* Certain of the iShares Funds have fee waivers resulting in a net expense ratio. BlackRock Fund Advisors, the investment adviser to the iShares Funds, has contractually agreed to waive its management fees in the amounts shown through the respective fee waiver expiration dates as follows: iShares MSCI All Country Asia ex Japan Index Fund and iShares MSCI All Country World Minimum Volatility Index Fund, June 30, 2013; iShares MSCI EAFE Minimum Volatility Index Fund and iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Minimum Volatility Index Fund, December 31, 2014; iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Asia/EMEA/Growth/Latin America/Value Index Fund, December 31, 2014; iShares MSCI Global Agriculture Producers Fund and iShares MSCI Global Select Metals & Mining Producers Fund, December 31, 2014; iShares S&P Allocation Funds, June 30, 2013; iShares S&P Emerging Markets Infrastructure Index Fund, June 30, 2013; iShares S&P Target Date Index Funds, June 30, 2013.

† The total annual operating expenses of the iShares Barclays Aggregate Bond Fund and iShares Barclays MBS Bond Fund include “acquired fund fees and expenses” which are related to the funds' investments in the BlackRock Cash Funds: Prime (the “money market fund”). “Acquired fund fees and expenses” represent the funds' pro rata share of the fees and expenses charged by the money market fund and may vary based on the funds' allocation of assets to the annualized net expenses of the money market fund. Annual operating expenses do not include the effect of interest earned by investments in the money market fund, which is expected to offset the money market fund's fees and expenses.

Shares of iShares Funds are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.

Market returns are based upon the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4:00 p.m. eastern time (when NAV is normally determined for most iShares Funds), and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times.
