THE BOARD OF EACH FUND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU CAST YOUR VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND AND VOTE ON THE PROPOSAL
Below is a brief overview of the subject of the shareholder vote. Your vote is important, no matter how large or small your holdings may be. Please read the full text of this Joint Proxy Statement, which contains
additional information about the Proposal, and keep it for future reference.
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PROPOSAL
What will these changes do if approved?
Shareholders of the Funds are being asked to approve changing each Fund’s sub-classification from a diversified fund to a non-diversified fund, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940
Act”). The changes will give each of the Funds the ability to invest a greater percentage of its assets in the obligations or securities of a smaller number of issuers or any one issuer than a diversified fund. However, shareholders
should note that if the change in the Funds’ sub-classifications to “non-diversified” is approved, the Funds’ risk profiles may increase (for additional information, see “PROPOSAL”
below) .
3
Why are shareholders being asked to approve these changes?
As explained more fully below, each Fund is sub-classified as a diversified fund and has declared a fundamental policy of being diversified, which may not be changed or eliminated without shareholder approval. A
diversified fund must limit all investments greater than 5% of its assets in any one issuer to no more than, in the aggregate, 25% of the fund’s assets. However, for the past several years, each Fund has had a high concentration of investments
that are greater than 5% of the Fund’s assets in any one issuer, which, at times, has resulted in the Fund having had to trim positions or limit new investments. The Boards recommend that the Funds be reclassified as “non-diversified”
funds. As non-diversified funds, each Fund could invest a greater portion of its assets in any one issuer and invest overall in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. The Funds’ portfolio managers believe that the proposed change
will allow the Funds to better implement their investment strategies and remain compliant with the limits of the 1940 Act.
VOTING PROCEDURES
How do I vote by proxy?
Whether you plan to attend the Meeting or not, we urge you to complete, sign and date the enclosed proxy card and to return it promptly in the envelope provided. Returning the proxy card will not affect your right
to attend the Meeting or to vote at the Meeting if you choose to do so. If you properly complete and sign your proxy card and send it to us in time to vote at the Meeting, your “proxy” (the individual(s) named on your proxy card) will vote your
shares as you have directed. If you sign your proxy card but do not specify how to vote your shares, your proxy will vote your shares “FOR” the Proposal, as recommended by the Boards , and in accordance with the judgment of your proxy on
other matters.
Proxies marked “ ABSTAIN ” will not be voted “FOR” the Proposal, but will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present, and will therefore have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the
Proposal. Your proxy will have the authority to vote and act on your behalf at any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting. Shareholders may also transact any other business not currently contemplated that may properly come before the
Meeting in the discretion of the proxies or their substitutes.
What is the deadline to submit my proxy by mail, telephone or the internet?
If you choose to vote by proxy, we must receive your proxy in time to be voted at the Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof, which means the proxy must be received prior to the closing of the polls of
the Meeting or any adjournment or postponements thereof. All proxies must be delivered to the Secretary of the respective Fund before being voted. To ensure we receive your proxy in time, we urge you to mail your proxy card(s) or record your
voting instructions by telephone or via the internet today.
How do I vote by telephone or the internet?
You may vote your shares by telephone or through a website established for that purpose by following the instructions that appear on the proxy card accompanying your Joint Proxy Statement.
May I revoke my vote?
If you authorize a proxy to vote for you, you may revoke the authorization at any time before it is voted. You can do this in one of the following ways:
|
|
•
|
|
You may send in a subsequent proxy with a later date.
|
|
|
•
|
|
You may deliver a written notice to your Trust stating that the proxy is revoked, or file a revocation via any electronic, telephonic, computerized or other alternative means.
|
|
|
•
|
|
You may call the telephone number or visit the website that appears on your proxy card.
|
|
|
•
|
|
You may provide written notice of the death or incapacity of the maker of the proxy to your Trust.
|
|
•
|
You may vote at the Meeting online via live webcast by following the instructions herein and on your proxy card .

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING VOTING AT THE MEETING
Will any other matters be voted on at the Meeting?
4
Management is not aware of any matters to be presented at the Meeting other than the Proposal discussed in this Joint Proxy Statement. However, if any other matters properly come before the Meeting, proxies will be
voted on such matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons designated therein as proxies consistent with their fiduciary duties as set forth in Statement on Adjournment of Investment Company Shareholder Meetings and Withdrawal of
Proposed Rule 20a-4 and Amendment to Rule 20a-1, Investment Company Act Release No. 7659 (Feb. 6, 1973) (the “1973 Release”).
What is the quorum requirement?
A quorum of shareholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum exists if shareholders entitled to vote one-third of the issued and outstanding shares of a Fund on the Record Date are present at the
Meeting virtually or by proxy. Abstentions and broker non-votes will count as shares present at the Meeting for purposes of establishing a quorum.
What is a “broker non-vote”?
A “broker non-vote” occurs when a broker has not received voting instructions from a shareholder and is barred from voting the shares without shareholder instructions because the proposal is considered to be
non-routine. Because the Proposal may be considered non-routine, your broker likely will not be permitted to vote your shares if it has not received instructions from you, and the shares will be considered “broker non-votes.” “Broker non-votes”
are considered present for purposes of establishing a quorum.
Could there be an adjournment of the Meeting?
If a quorum is not present at the Meeting, the vote of the holders of a majority of the shares cast will have the power to adjourn the Meeting from time to time, without notice other than an announcement at the
Meeting, until a quorum is attained. If a quorum is present at the Meeting, the vote of the holders of one-third of the shares cast will have the power to adjourn the Meeting with regard to the Proposal scheduled to be voted on at the Meeting,
or to adjourn the Meeting entirely, without notice other than an announcement at the Meeting. Provided a quorum is present, any business may be transacted at such adjourned meeting that might have been transacted at the Meeting as originally
notified.
A meeting may be adjourned from time to time without further notice to shareholders to a date not more than 120 days after the original record date. The persons named as proxies will vote in their discretion on
questions of adjournment for those shares for which proxies have been received. With respect to adjournments, the persons named as proxies will adhere to the guidelines provided in the 1973 Release, and weigh carefully the decision whether to
adjourn the Meeting for the purpose of soliciting shareholders to obtain additional proxies. In any such case, the persons named as proxies will consider whether an adjournment and additional solicitation is reasonable and in the interest of
shareholders, or whether such procedures would constitute an abuse of office.
What is the vote necessary to approve the Proposal?
Approval of the Proposal requires the lesser of (a) the affirmative vote of 67% or more of the voting securities present or represented by proxy, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities
of a Fund are present or represented by proxy, or (b) the affirmative vote of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as votes present for purposes of achieving
a quorum but are not considered votes cast at the Meeting. As a result, they have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” the Proposal because approval of the Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a percentage of a Fund’s voting securities
present or represented by proxy or a percentage of the outstanding voting securities. An unfavorable vote on the Proposal by the shareholders of one Fund will not affect the implementation of such Proposal by another Fund if the Proposal is
approved by the shareholders of the other Fund, as applicable.
How will proxies be solicited and who will pay?
The Trusts have retained Computershare, a professional proxy solicitation firm, to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Meeting. The estimated cost of solicitation is currently estimated to be in the
aggregate approximately $ 2,440,299 . The Trusts expect to solicit proxies principally by mail, but the Trusts or Computershare may also solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile, internet or personal interview. The Trusts’ officers will not
receive any additional or special compensation for any such solicitation. The expenses of preparing, printing and mailing these proxy solicitation materials and all other costs in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the Proposal
will be borne by the Funds, except that, with respect to Invesco Capital Appreciation Fund and Invesco Technology Fund only, Invesco Advisers, Inc. (the “Adviser”) may bear indirectly some or all of
5
the proxy solicitation costs as a result of an expense limitation arrangement in place between the Adviser and the Funds. The Funds will also reimburse banks, brokers and others for their reasonable expenses in
forwarding proxy solicitation material to the beneficial owners of the shares of the Funds. In order to obtain the necessary quorum at the Meeting, additional solicitation may be made by mail, telephone, facsimile or personal interview by
representatives of the Funds, the Adviser or its affiliates, by the transfer agent to the Funds and by dealers or their representatives.
How may a shareholder proposal be submitted?
As a general matter, the Funds do not hold regular meetings of shareholders. Shareholders wishing to submit proposals for inclusion in a proxy statement for a subsequent shareholder meeting should send their written
proposals to the Secretary of the respective Fund at Greenway Plaza, Suite 1000, Houston, Texas 77046-1173. Proposals must be received a reasonable time before the Funds begin to print and send their proxy materials to be considered for
inclusion in the proxy materials for the meeting. Timely submission of a proposal does not, however, necessarily mean the proposal will be included. With respect to proposals submitted on an untimely basis and presented at a shareholder
meeting, persons named as proxy agents will vote in their discretion. Additional requirements regarding shareholder proposals are included in the Funds’ Bylaws, which are available upon request.

PROPOSAL
TO APPROVE CHANGING EACH FUND’S SUB-CLASSIFICATION FROM “DIVERSIFIED” TO “NON-DIVERSIFIED” AND APPROVE THE ELIMINATION OF A RELATED FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT RESTRICTION.
The Funds are currently sub-classified as “diversified” funds for purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of the 1940 Act. As diversified funds, the Funds are limited as to the amount they may invest in any single issuer.
Specifically, for 75% of its total assets, each Fund currently may not invest in a security if, as a result of such investment, more than 5% of its total assets (calculated at the time of purchase) would be invested in securities of any one
issuer. In addition, for 75% of its total assets, each Fund may not hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer. The restrictions in Section 5(b)(1) do not apply to investments in U.S. government securities,
securities of other investment companies (for example, other funds), cash and cash items.
In addition, each Fund currently has a fundamental investment restriction on diversification (which may only be changed with shareholder approval), which states:
The Fund is a “diversified company” as defined in the 1940 Act. The Fund will not purchase the securities of any issuer if, as a result, the Fund would
fail to be a diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, as such statute, rules and regulations are amended from time to time or are interpreted from time to time by the SEC
staff (collectively, the “1940 Act Laws and Interpretations”) or except to the extent that the Fund may be permitted to do so by exemptive order or similar relief (collectively, with the 1940 Act Laws and Interpretations, the "1940 Act
Laws, Interpretations and Exemptions") . In complying with this restriction, however, the Fund may purchase securities of other investment companies to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act Laws, Interpretations and Exemptions.
If shareholders approve changing each Fund’s sub-classification from diversified to non-diversified, this corresponding fundamental investment restriction will be eliminated.
8
If the Proposal is approved by shareholders, the Funds will no longer be subject to the diversification limitation set forth in Section 5(b)(1) of the 1940 Act or the Funds’ current fundamental investment restrictions
on diversification. Although each Fund would no longer be subject to the 1940 Act diversification restrictions if shareholders approve the Proposal, each Fund will continue to be subject to federal tax diversification restrictions of
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “IRC”). For purposes of the IRC, each Fund operates as a “regulated investment company.” As such, each Fund must meet certain diversification requirements, including the
requirement that, in general, at least 50% of the market value of its total assets at the close of each quarter of its taxable year must be invested in cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, securities of other regulated investment
companies, and securities of issuers (including foreign governments) with respect to which the Fund has invested no more than 5% of its total assets in securities of any one issuer and owns no more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities
of any issuer. Each Fund also must invest no more than 25% of the value of its total assets in securities (other than U.S. government securities and securities of other regulated investment companies) of any one issuer or of two or more issuers
that the Fund controls and is engaged in the same, similar or related trades or businesses or, collectively, in the securities of certain publicly traded partnerships. These limits apply only as of the close of each quarter of each Fund’s
taxable year. These federal tax diversification requirements may change in the future without shareholder approval.
The asset classes in which the Funds invest have experienced fundamental changes that have made it difficult for the Funds to pursue their existing investment strategies while maintaining their 1940 Act
diversification status. Over the course of the last ten years, the Funds’ asset classes have become increasingly dominated by certain large companies and the significant outperformance of some of these companies, which has resulted in a higher
level of concentration of these companies in each Fund’s asset class. In other words, these companies now represent a large percentage of the investment universes in which the Funds invest.
Due to these structural changes to the Funds’ investment universes, the Funds are not able to take as large of positions in these companies as the respective portfolio management team believes to be beneficial for
the Fund’s portfolio because the Funds are limited in doing so to maintain their diversified status. (For a diversified fund, all investments greater than 5% in any one issuer may not exceed, in the aggregate, 25% of the fund’s assets.) Thus,
changing each Fund’s sub-classification to non-diversified would provide each Fund with the flexibility to pursue its investment strategy given that the Adviser believes the high level of concentration in each Fund’s asset class will remain for
the foreseeable future.
However, shareholders should note that if the change in the Funds’ sub-classifications to “non-diversified” are approved, the Funds’ risk profiles may increase. This is because the investment return on a
non-diversified fund typically is dependent upon the performance of the obligations or securities of a smaller number of issuers or any one issuer than a diversified fund. A non-diversified fund can invest a greater portion of its assets in a
single issuer and may invest in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. Consequently, a non-diversified fund is more susceptible to adverse developments affecting any single issuer held in its portfolio than a diversified fund, and
may be more susceptible to greater losses because of such developments. Accordingly, if the Proposal is approved on behalf of the Funds, the Funds would be subject to greater risk than they currently are subject to as diversified funds.
The Boards considered the recommendations of the Adviser to change the Funds’ sub-classifications under the 1940 Act to non-diversified companies and to eliminate the Funds’ related fundamental investment
restrictions. The Boards considered all relevant factors, including the potential impact of the Proposal on the Funds and their risk profiles and the estimated costs associated with seeking shareholder approval of the proposed change for
each Fund . Following its consideration of these matters, the Boards unanimously approved the proposed change in each Fund’s sub-classification to “non-diversified” and the elimination of each Fund’s related fundamental investment
restriction. It is anticipated that this Proposal, if approved, will be effective upon notification to shareholders of the changes through appropriate revisions to the Funds’ Prospectuses and Statements of Additional Information.
If the Proposal is not approved by shareholders of the Funds, the Funds will continue to operate as diversified funds, as defined under the 1940 Act, and each Fund’s related fundamental investment restriction on
diversification will remain in effect.
THE BOARD OF EACH FUND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR THE PROPOSAL TO CHANGE THE FUNDS’ SUB-CLASSIFICATIONS FROM A DIVERSIFIED TO A NON-DIVERSIFIED FUND AND
ELIMINATING THE RELATED FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS
