Important Notes
This presentation, and other statements that BlackRock may make, may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, with respect to BlackRock’s future financial or business performance, strategies or
expectations.  Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as “trend,” “potential,” “opportunity,”
“pipeline,” “believe,” “comfortable,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “current,” “intention,” “estimate,” “position,” “assume,” “outlook,” “continue,”
“remain,” “maintain,” “sustain,” “seek,” “achieve,” and similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,”
“could,” “may” and similar expressions.
BlackRock cautions that forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over
time.  Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and BlackRock assumes no duty to and does not
undertake to update forward-looking statements.  Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking
statements and future results could differ materially from historical performance.
In addition to risk factors previously disclosed in BlackRock’s Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports and those
identified elsewhere in this presentation the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-
looking statements or historical performance: (1) the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives and strategies;
(2) changes and volatility in political, economic or industry conditions, the interest rate environment, foreign exchange rates or financial
and capital markets, which could result in changes in demand for products or services or in the value of assets under management;
(3) the relative and absolute investment performance of BlackRock’s investment products; (4) the impact of increased competition;
(5) the impact of future acquisitions or divestitures; (6) the unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings; (7) the extent and timing of any
share repurchases; (8) the impact, extent and timing of technological changes and the adequacy of intellectual property and
information security protection; (9) the impact of legislative and regulatory actions and reforms, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and regulatory, supervisory or enforcement actions of government agencies relating to
BlackRock or The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. (“PNC”); (10) terrorist activities, international hostilities and natural disasters,
which may adversely affect the general economy, domestic and local financial and capital markets, specific industries or BlackRock;
(11) the ability to attract and retain highly talented professionals; (12) fluctuations in the carrying value of BlackRock’s economic
investments; (13) the impact of changes to tax legislation, including income, payroll and transaction taxes, and taxation on products or
transactions, which could affect the value proposition to clients and, generally, the tax position of BlackRock; (14) BlackRock’s success
in maintaining the distribution of its products; (15) the impact of BlackRock electing to provide support to its products from time to time
and any potential liabilities related to securities lending or other indemnification obligations; and (16) the impact of problems at other
financial institutions or the failure or negative performance of products at other financial institutions.
This presentation also includes non-GAAP financial measures.  You can find our presentations on the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and our reconciliations in the appendix to this earnings release supplement,
our current earnings release dated January 17, 2013, and BlackRock’s other periodic reports, which are available on BlackRock’s web
