Details are as follows: Declaration Date- 11/29/2021 Ex-Date- 12/16/2021 Record Date- 12/17/2021 Payable Date- 12/31/2021 Trust Ticker Initial Monthly Per-Share Distribution Yield on Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) Price* BlackRock ESG Capital Allocation Trust ECAT $0.100000 6.00% *The yield on the IPO price shown above is calculated by dividing the initial monthly per-share distribution by the Trust’s IPO price of $20.00 per share and annualizing the results. The Trust has adopted a managed distribution plan (the “Plan”) and employs an option over-write policy to support a level distribution of income, capital gains and/or return of capital. The fixed amounts distributed per share are subject to change at the discretion of the Trust’s Board of Trustees. Under the Plan, the Trust will distribute all available investment income to its shareholders, consistent with its primary investment objectives and as required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If sufficient investment income is not available on a monthly basis, the Trust will distribute long-term capital gains and/or return capital to its shareholders in order to maintain a level distribution. The estimated sources of the Trust’s distribution as of November 29, 2021 and for its current fiscal year are as follows: Estimated Allocations as of November 29, 2021 Trust Distribution Net Investment Income Net Realized Short- Term Gains Net Realized Long- Term Gains Return of Capital ECAT1 $0.100000 $0 (0%) $0.086743 (87%) $0 (0%) $0.013257 (13%) Estimated Allocations for the Fiscal Year through November 29, 2021 Trust Distribution Net Investment Income Net Realized Short- Term Gains Net Realized Long- Term Gains Return of Capital ECAT1 $0.100000 $0 (0%) $0.086743 (87%) $0 (0%) $0.013257 (13%) 1The Trust estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net-realized capital gains in the current fiscal year; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the shareholder’s investment is paid back to the shareholder. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Trust’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income’. When distributions exceed total return performance, the difference will reduce the Trust’s net asset value per share. The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates and are not provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Trust’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Trust will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Trust’s investment performance from the amount of the Trust’s current distributions or from the terms of the Plan. The amount distributed per share under the Plan is subject to change at the discretion of the Trust’s Board. The Plan will be subject to ongoing review by the Board to determine whether the Plan should be continued, modified or terminated. The Board may amend the terms of the Plan or suspend or terminate the Plan at any time without prior notice to the Trust’s shareholders if it deems such actions to be in the best interest of the Trust or its shareholders. The amendment or termination of the Plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Trust’s shares.
