Dear Shareholder

Extraordinary General Meeting

Enclosed are a Notice of the Extraordinary General Meeting (the "EGM") of the Company and a proxy card for you to vote on the EGM resolutions.

Special Business Proposed at the Extraordinary General Meeting 

As you are aware, the Manager of the Company (Barclays Global Investors Ireland Limited) and the Investment Manager of the Company (Barclays Global Investors Limited) are currently majority-owned subsidiaries of Barclays PLC ("Barclays").

On 16 June, 2009, Barclays accepted a binding offer and entered into an agreement to sell its interests in the Manager and the Investment Manager to BlackRock, Inc. (the "Transaction"), and on 6 August, 2009, the Shareholders of Barclays voted and approved the Transaction.

As a consequence of the Transaction, the name of the Manager will be changing to "BlackRock Asset Management Ireland Limited" and the name of the Investment Manager will be changing to "BlackRock Advisors (UK) Limited".

In connection with the Transaction and the change of name of the Manager and the Investment Manager, it is proposed that the name of the Company be changed from "Barclays Global Investors Cash Selection Funds plc" to "BlackRock Cash Selection Funds plc" (the "Name Change"). 

The Articles of Association of the Company are also being amended to incorporate amendments of a technical and updating nature. To implement the Name Change and the amendments to the Articles of Association, Shareholders must approve the following two resolutions:

Special Resolution No. 1

Special Resolution No. 1 proposes the Name Change and consequential changes to the Memorandum and Articles of Association as outlined Appendix 1 attached to this Notice.

To pass Special Resolutions 1 and 2, 75% of the voted Shares must be in favour of each of the Resolutions.

Recommendation

The Directors of the Company believe that the two Special Resolutions to be proposed at the EGM are in the best interests of the Company and of the Shareholders as a whole and, accordingly, the Directors strongly recommend that you vote in favour of the two Special Resolutions at the EGM.

Revised Prospectus

The Company's Prospectus is currently being updated to reflect the Name Change and other changes required in connection with the Transaction (including changes to the names of the funds of the Company as outlined below) and to take account of legislative and regulatory developments and changes of a technical and updating nature.  

Other Changes not Requiring Shareholder Approval
