AMEX Listing of iShares MSCI Taiwan Index Fund and
Commencement of Sales to the Public
The American Stock Exchange LLC has approved the
listing of the iShares MSCI Taiwan Index Fund.
Beginning June 23, 2000, shares of the iShares MSCI
Taiwan Index Fund are to be offered for sale to the public,
and will trade on the American Stock Exchange under the

The iShares MSCI Malaysia (Free) Index Fund Has Been Re-Opened
Effective May 26, 2000, the iShares MSCI Malaysia
(Free) Index Fund commenced offers of Creation Units of its
iShares for U.S. dollars.
The Company continues to seek relief from the Malaysian
authorities to permit it to effect sales and redemptions of
Creation Units of the MSCI Malaysia (Free) Index Fund's
iShares on an "in kind" basis. There can be no assurances
that such relief will be obtained, or that the Company's
decision to permit offers and redemptions of Creation Units
of the MSCI Malaysia (Free) Index Fund's iShares for U.S.
dollars will result in that Fund's iShares trading close to
their net asset value.
Special Meetings of Shareholders of the iShares MSCI Canada,
Japan and United Kingdom Index Funds
The Company has adjourned until June 27, 2000 the
special meetings of shareholders of the iShares MSCI Canada,
Japan and United Kingdom Index Funds. On that date,
shareholders of each of these Index Funds will vote on
proposals to change the funds from "diversified" to "non-
diversified" funds. Details of the proposals are contained
in the Company's proxy statement dated March 28, 2000. If
the shareholders of an Index Fund approve its change to non-
diversified status, that change will be effective
immediately and it will be subject to the non-
diversification risks described under "Principal Risk
Factors" in the Prospectus. If shareholders of an Index
Fund do not approve the proposal, the Index Fund will
continue as a diversified fund.
