JOINT PROXY STATEMENT
 
INVESCO VAN KAMPEN CLOSED-END FUNDS
 
1555 Peachtree Street, N.E.
Atlanta, Georgia 30309
 
JOINT ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
 
June 17, 2011
 
INTRODUCTION
 
 
This Joint Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the respective Board of Trustees (the “Trustees” or the “Board”) of each of the Invesco Van Kampen Closed-End Funds listed on Annex A to this Joint Proxy Statement (the “Funds”) of proxies to be voted at a Joint Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Funds, and all adjournments thereof (the “Meeting”), to be held at 11 Greenway Plaza, Suite 2500, Houston, Texas 77046-1173, on June 17, 2011, at 3:00 p.m. The Meeting will be an annual meeting for each Fund. The approximate mailing date of this Joint Proxy Statement and accompanying form of proxy is May 16, 2011.
 
Participating in the Meeting are holders of common shares of beneficial interest (the “Common Shares”) and, where applicable, the holders of preferred shares of beneficial interest (the “Preferred Shares”), of each of the Funds as set forth in Annex A to this Joint Proxy Statement. The Common Shares and the Preferred Shares of the Funds sometimes are referred to herein collectively as the “Shares.” The Meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the shareholders of the Funds because the shareholders of the Funds are expected to consider and vote on similar matters. The Board has determined that the use of a joint proxy statement for the Meeting is in the best interest of the shareholders of each of the Funds. In the event that a shareholder of any Fund present at the Meeting objects to the holding of a joint meeting and moves for an adjournment of the meeting of such Fund to a time immediately after the Meeting so that such Fund’s meeting may be held separately, the persons named as proxies will vote in favor of the adjournment.
 
Annex A lists the abbreviated name and stock symbol by which the Funds sometimes are referred to in this Joint Proxy Statement. Please refer to Annex A for any questions you may have regarding whether your Fund is participating at the Meeting, defined terms relating to the Funds and abbreviated Fund names.
 
The Board has fixed the close of business on May 5, 2011 as the record date (the “Record Date”) for the determination of holders of Shares of each Fund entitled to vote at the Meeting. The number of issued and outstanding Common Shares and Preferred


 

Shares of each Fund as of the Record Date is shown in Annex B to this Joint Proxy Statement.
 
The following table summarizes the proposals to be presented at the Meeting and the shareholders entitled to vote with respect to the proposals.

Each Fund will furnish, without charge, a copy of its most recent annual report (and the most recent semiannual report succeeding the annual report, if any) to any shareholder upon request. Any such request should be directed to the respective Fund by calling 1-800-341-2929 Option 2 or by writing to the respective Fund at 11 Greenway Plaza, Suite 2500, Houston, Texas 77046-1173.
 
Voting
 
Shareholders of a Fund on the Record Date are entitled to one vote per Share with respect to any proposal submitted to the shareholders of the Fund, with no Share having cumulative voting rights. The voting requirement for passage of a particular proposal depends on the nature of the proposal.
 
With respect to Proposal 1(a) through (c), holders of Common Shares and Preferred Shares, where applicable, will vote as separate classes for the respective nominee(s) to be elected by such class of Shares. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of a Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect each nominee for Trustee of such Fund designated to be elected by the holders of the Common Shares of such Fund. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the Preferred Shares of a Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect such nominee for Trustee of such Fund designated to be elected by the holders of the Preferred Shares of such Fund. Election by plurality means those persons who receive the highest number of votes cast “FOR” up to the total number of persons to be elected as Trustees at the Meeting shall be elected.


2


 

The Board of Trustees of each Fund recommends that you cast your vote FOR ALL of the nominees for the Board of Trustees listed in the Joint Proxy Statement.
 
An unfavorable vote on a 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. An unfavorable vote on a proposal by the shareholders of a Fund will not affect such Fund’s implementation of other proposals that receive a favorable vote. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of Trustees.
 
All Shares represented by properly executed proxies received prior to the Meeting will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions marked thereon. Proxies received prior to the Meeting on which no vote is indicated will be voted “FOR” each proposal as to which they are entitled to be voted. Abstentions and broker non-votes (i.e., where a nominee, such as a broker, holding shares for beneficial owners responds but does not vote on a proposal because the nominee lacks beneficial owner direction or does not exercise discretionary authority) are not treated as votes “FOR” a proposal. With respect to Proposal 1(a) through (c), abstentions and broker non-votes are disregarded since only votes “FOR” are considered in a plurality voting requirement. A majority of the outstanding Shares of a Fund entitled to vote must be present in person or by proxy to have a quorum for such Fund to conduct business at the Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be deemed present for quorum purposes.
 
Shareholders who execute proxies may revoke them at any time before they are voted by filing with the respective Fund a written notice of revocation, by delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending the Meeting and voting in person.
 
The Funds know of no business other than that mentioned in Proposal 1 of the Notice that will be presented for consideration at the Meeting. If any other matters are properly presented, it is the intention of the persons named on the enclosed proxy to vote proxies in accordance with their best judgment. In the event a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient votes to approve any of the proposals with respect to one or more Funds or proposals are not received, proxies (including abstentions and broker non-votes) would be voted in favor of one or more adjournments of the Meeting of the concerned Fund with respect to such proposal to permit further solicitation of proxies, provided they determine that such an adjournment and additional solicitation is reasonable and in the interest of shareholders based on a consideration of all relevant factors, including the nature of the relevant proposal, the percentage of votes then cast, the percentage of negative votes then cast, the nature of the proposed solicitation activities and the nature of the reasons for such further solicitation.
 
Investment Adviser
 
The investment adviser for each Fund is Invesco Advisers, Inc. (the “Adviser”). The Adviser is a wholly owned subsidiary of Invesco Ltd. On April 16, 2010, shareholders of each of the Funds approved a new investment advisory agreement with the Adviser,

which became effective on June 1, 2010, the closing date (the “Closing Date”) of the transaction between Morgan Stanley and Invesco Ltd., whereby Morgan Stanley sold substantially all of its retail asset management business, including Van Kampen Investments Inc. to Invesco Ltd. The Adviser is located at 1555 Peachtree Street, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30309. The Adviser, as successor in interest to multiple investment advisers, has been an investment adviser since 1976.
 
Investment Sub-Advisers
 
The Adviser has entered into a sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) with certain affiliates to serve as sub-advisers to the Funds, pursuant to which these affiliated sub-advisers may be appointed by the Adviser from time to time to provide discretionary investment management services, investment advice, and/or order execution services to the Funds.

VTA’s investment subadviser is Avenue Europe International Management, L.P. (the “VTA Subadviser”), a part of Avenue Capital Group, which is comprised of three registered investment advisers, including the VTA Subadviser. On April 16, 2010, shareholders of VTA approved a new investment subadvisory agreement with Avenue Europe International, L.P., which became effective on the Closing Date. The Adviser allocates a portion of VTA’s assets to be invested by the VTA Subadviser based upon market conditions and the attractiveness of available investment opportunities in European investments. The VTA Subadviser, located at 535 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022, has experience managing investment portfolios and private investment funds not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”).

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF TRUSTEES
 
 
Trustees are to be elected by the shareholders at the Meeting in the following manner:
 
(a) With respect to VKI, VCV, VPV and VMV, four Class III Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of each such Fund’s annual meeting of shareholders in 2014 or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to three Class III Trustees (R. Craig Kennedy, Jack E. Nelson and Colin D. Meadows) designated to be elected by such class of shares. Holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to one Class III Trustee (Hugo F. Sonnenschein) designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares or a plurality of the Preferred Shares, as applicable, of each such Fund is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the respective nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise.
 
(b) With respect to VTA, VLT, VBF, VGM, VTJ, VIM, VTN, VOQ, VKQ, VMO and VVR, four Class I Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of each such Fund’s annual meeting of shareholders in 2014 or until a successor has been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to four Class I Trustees (David C. Arch, Howard J Kerr, Jerry Choate and Suzanne Woolsey) designated to be elected by such class of shares. An affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of each such Fund is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the respective nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise.
 
(c) With respect to VKL, three Class II Trustees are to be elected at the Meeting, to serve until the later of such Fund’s annual meeting of shareholders in 2014 or until a successor has been duly elected and qualified. Holders of Common Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to two Class II Trustees (Wayne W. Whalen and Rod Dammeyer) designated to be elected by such class of shares. Holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, will vote with respect to one Class II Trustee (Linda Hutton Heagy) designated to be elected by such class of shares. Previously, Linda Hutton Heagy had been designated to be elected by holders of Common Shares and Rod Dammeyer had been designated to be elected by holders of Preferred Shares. The Board of VKL has designated Linda Hutton Heagy to stand for election by holders of Preferred Shares at the Meeting and Rod Dammeyer to stand for election by holders of Common Shares at the Meeting. An affirmative


5


 

vote of a plurality of the Common Shares or a plurality of the Preferred Shares, as applicable, of such Fund is required to elect the respective nominees. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the Shares represented by them for the election of the respective nominees listed unless the proxy is marked otherwise.
 
As in the past, only one class of Trustees is being submitted to shareholders of each Fund for election at the Meeting. The Declaration of Trust of each Fund provides that the Board of Trustees shall consist of Trustees divided into three classes, the classes to be as nearly equal in number as possible. For each Fund, the Trustees of only one class are elected at each annual meeting so that the regular term of only one class of Trustees will expire annually and any particular Trustee stands for election only once in each three-year period. This type of classification may prevent replacement of a majority of Trustees of a Fund for up to a two-year period. The foregoing is subject to the provisions of the 1940 Act, applicable state law based on the state of organization of each Fund, each Fund’s Declaration of Trust and each Fund’s Bylaws.

Board Qualifications, Diversity and Leadership Structure
 
The management of the Invesco Van Kampen Funds seeks to provide investors with disciplined investment teams, a research-driven culture, careful long-term perspective, and a legacy of experience. Consistent with these goals, the Board overseeing the Invesco Van Kampen Funds seeks to provide shareholders with a highly qualified, highly capable and diverse group of Board members reflecting the diversity of investor interests underlying the Invesco Van Kampen Funds and with a diversity of backgrounds, experience and skills that the Board considers desirable and necessary to its primary goal — protecting and promoting shareholders’ interests. While the Board does not require that its members meet specific qualifications, the Board has historically sought to recruit and continues to value individual Board members that add to the overall diversity of the Board — the objective is to bring varied backgrounds, experience and skills reflective of the wide range of the shareholder base and provide both contrasting and complementary skills relative to the other Board members to best protect and promote shareholders’ interests. Board diversity means bringing together different viewpoints, professional experience, investment experience, education, and other skills. As can be seen in the individual biographies above, the Board brings together a wide variety of business experience (including chairman/chief executive officer-level and director-level experience, including board committee experience, of several different types of organizations); varied public and private investment-related experience; not-for-profit experience; customer service and other back office operations experience; a wide variety of accounting, finance, legal, and marketing experience; academic experience; consulting experience; and government, political and military service experience. All of this experience together results in important leadership and management knowledge, skills and perspective that provide the Board understanding and insight into the operations of the Funds and add range and depth to the Board. As part of its governance oversight, the Board conducts an annual self-effectiveness survey which includes, among other things, evaluating the Board’s (and each committee’s) agendas, meetings and materials, conduct of the meetings, committee structures, interaction with management, strategic planning, etc., and also includes evaluating the Board’s (and each committee’s) size, composition, qualifications (including diversity of characteristics, experience and subject matter expertise) and overall performance.
 
The Board evaluates all of the foregoing and does not believe any single factor or group of factors controls or dominates the qualifications of any individual trustee or the qualifications of the trustees as a group. After considering all factors together, the Board believes that each Trustee is qualified to serve as a Trustee of the Invesco Van Kampen Funds.
 
David C. Arch.  Mr. Arch has been a member of the Board since 1989. The Board believes that Mr. Arch’s experience as the chairman and chief executive officer of a public company and as a member of the board of several organizations, his service as a


15


 

Trustee of the Funds and his experience as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.
 
Jerry D. Choate.  Mr. Choate has been a member of the Board since 2003. The Board believes that Mr. Choate’s experience as the chairman and chief executive officer of a public company and a director of several public companies, his service as a Trustee of the Funds and his experience as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.
 
Rod Dammeyer.  Mr. Dammeyer has been a member of the Board since 1989. The Board believes that Mr. Dammeyer’s experience in executive positions at a number of public companies and as a director of several public companies, his accounting experience, his service as a Trustee of the Funds and his experience serving as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.
 
Linda Hutton Heagy.  Ms. Heagy has been a member of the Board since 2003. The Board believes that Ms. Heagy’s experience in executive positions at a number of bank and trust companies and as a member of the board of several organizations, her service as a Trustee of the Funds and her experience serving as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.
 
R. Craig Kennedy.  Mr. Kennedy has been a member of the Board since 2003. The Board believes that Mr. Kennedy’s experience in executive positions at a number of foundations, his investment experience, his service as a Trustee of the Funds and his experience serving as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.
 
Howard J Kerr.  Mr. Kerr has been a member of the Board since 1992. The Board believes that Mr. Kerr’s experience in executive positions at a number of companies, his experience in public service, his service as a Trustee of the Funds and his experience serving as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.
 
Jack E. Nelson.  Mr. Nelson has been a member of the Board since 2003. The Board believes that Mr. Nelson’s experience in executive positions at a number of companies and as a member of several financial and investment industry organizations, his service as a Trustee of the Funds and his experience serving as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.
 
Hugo F. Sonnenschein.  Mr. Sonnenschein has been a member of the Board since 1994. The Board believes that Mr. Sonnenschein’s academic experience, his economic expertise, his experience as a member of the board of several organizations, his service as a Trustee of the Funds and his experience as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.
 
Suzanne H. Woolsey.  Ms. Woolsey has been a member of the Board since 2003. The Board believes that Ms. Woolsey’s experience as a director of numerous organizations, her service as a Trustee of the Funds and her experience as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.


16


 

Colin D. Meadows.  Mr. Meadows has been a member of the Board since 2010. The Board believes that Mr. Meadows’ financial services and asset management experience benefits the Funds.
 
Wayne W. Whalen.  Mr. Whalen has been a member of the Board since 1989. The Board believes that Mr. Whalen’s legal experience, his service as a Trustee of the Funds and his experience as a director of other investment companies benefits the Funds.
 
For more information about the backgrounds, experience, and skills of each Trustee, see the individual biographies above.
 
The Board’s leadership structure consists of a Chairman of the Board and three standing committees, each described below (and ad hoc committees when necessary), with each committee staffed by Independent Trustees and an Independent Trustee as Committee Chairman. The Chairman of the Board is not the principal executive officer of the Funds. The Chairman of the Board is not an “interested person” (as that term is defined by the 1940 Act) of the Adviser. However, the Chairman of the Board is an “interested person” (as that term is defined by the 1940 Act) of the Funds for the reasons described above in the Trustee biographies. The Board, including the independent trustees, periodically reviews the Board’s leadership structure for the Invesco Van Kampen Funds, including the interested person status of the Chairman, and has concluded the leadership structure is appropriate for the Funds. In considering the chairman position, the Board has considered and/or reviewed (i) the Funds’ organizational documents, (ii) the role of a chairman (including, among other things, setting the agenda and managing information flow, running the meeting and setting the proper tone), (iii) the background, experience and skills of the Chairman (including his independence from the Adviser), (iv) alternative structures (including combined principal executive officer/chairman, selecting one of the Independent Trustees as chairman and/or appointing an independent lead trustee), (v) rule proposals in recent years that would have required all fund complexes to have an independent chairman, (vi) the Chairman’s past and current performance, and (vii) the potential conflicts of interest of the Chairman (and noted their periodic review as part of their annual self-effectiveness survey and as part of an independent annual review by the Funds’ audit committee of fund legal fees related to such potential conflict). In conclusion, the Board and the Independent Trustees have expressed their continuing support of Mr. Whalen as Chairman.
 
Board Role in Risk Oversight
 
As noted above, the management of the fund complex seeks to provide investors with disciplined investment teams, a research-driven culture, careful long-term perspective and a legacy of experience. Thus, the goal for each fund is attractive long-term performance consistent with the objectives and investment policies and risks for such fund, which in turn means, among other things, good security selection, reasonable costs and quality shareholder services. An important sub-component of delivering this


17


 

goal is risk management — understanding, monitoring and controlling the various risks in making investment decisions at the individual security level as well as portfolio management decisions at the overall fund level. The key participants in the risk management process of the Funds are each fund’s portfolio managers, the Adviser’s senior management, the Adviser’s risk management group, the Adviser’s compliance group, the Funds’ chief compliance officer, and the various support functions (i.e. the custodian, the Funds’ accountants (internal and external), and legal counsel). While funds are subject to other risks such as valuation, custodial, accounting, shareholder servicing, etc., a fund’s primary risk is understanding, monitoring and controlling the various risks in making portfolio management decisions consistent with the fund’s objective and policies. The Board’s role is oversight of management’s risk management process. At regular quarterly meetings, the Board reviews Fund performance and factors, including risks, affecting such performance by fund with the Adviser’s senior management, and the Board typically meets at least once a year with the portfolio managers of each fund. At regular quarterly meetings, the Board reviews reports showing monitoring done by the Adviser’s risk management group, by the Adviser’s compliance group, the Funds’ chief compliance officer and reports from the Funds’ support functions.
 
Remuneration of Trustees
 
The compensation of Trustees and executive officers that are affiliated persons (as defined in 1940 Act) of the Adviser is paid by the respective affiliated entity. The Funds pay the non-affiliated Trustees an annual retainer and meeting fees for services to such funds.
 
Each Trustee has served as a member of each Fund’s Board of Trustees since the year of such Trustee’s appointment or election as set forth on Annex C to this Proxy Statement.
 
Additional information regarding compensation and benefits for Trustees is set forth below. As indicated in the notes accompanying the table, the amounts relate to either the


18


 

respective Fund’s most recently completed fiscal year or the most recently completed calendar year ended December 31, 2010.

(3)  Prior to June 1, 2010, the Board of the Funds and the Boards of many of other funds formerly advised by Van Kampen Asset Management had the same members in common across all such Boards, and the Boards had common director/trustee compensation and benefit arrangements, including deferred compensation plans and retirement plans, across all of the Boards and their respective underlying funds. The Boards of most of the other funds formerly advised by Van Kampen Asset Management changed and in connection with these changes, among other things, the Funds terminated their deferred compensation plan and retirement plan and paid out the amounts deferred and/or accrued on the Funds’ books through the date of such termination and additional amounts not accrued to date in the amount of the net present value of the benefits the Board members would have received had they served until their normal retirement date on all such funds plus an amount equal to taxes on such payment. Such additional amounts payable to any Board members were not borne by the Funds’ shareholders.
 
(4)  The amounts shown in this column represent the aggregate compensation paid by all of the funds in the Fund Complex as of December 31, 2010. Because the


19


 

  funds in the Fund Complex have different fiscal year ends, the amounts shown in this column are presented on a calendar year basis.
 
Board Committees and Meetings
 
Each Fund’s Board of Trustees has three standing committees (an audit committee, a brokerage and services committee and a governance committee). Each committee is comprised solely of “Independent Trustees”, which is defined for purposes herein as trustees who: (1) are not “interested persons” of the Fund as defined by the 1940 Act and (2) are “independent” of the respective Fund as defined by the New York Stock Exchange and Chicago Stock Exchange listing standards.
 
Each Board’s audit committee consists of Messrs. Choate and Kennedy and Madame Heagy. In addition to being Independent Trustees as defined above, each of these Trustees also meets the additional independence requirements for audit committee members as defined by the New York Stock Exchange and Chicago Stock Exchange listing standards. The audit committee makes recommendations to the Board of Trustees concerning the selection of each Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm, reviews with such independent registered public accounting firm the scope and results of each Fund’s annual audit and considers any comments which the independent registered public accounting firm may have regarding each Fund’s financial statements, accounting records or internal controls. Each Board of Trustees has adopted a formal written charter for the audit committee which sets forth the audit committee’s responsibilities. The audit committee charter for each of the Funds is available at www.invesco.com/us. The audit committee has reviewed and discussed the financial statements of each Fund with management as well as with the independent registered public accounting firm of each Fund, and discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed under the Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61. The audit committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required under Independence Standard Board Standard No. 1 and has discussed with the independent registered public accountants their independence. Based on this review, the audit committee recommended to the Board of Trustees of each Fund that each Fund’s audited financial statements be included in each Fund’s annual report to shareholders for the most recent fiscal year for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Each member of the Fund’s audit committee is deemed an audit committee financial expert.
 
Each Board’s brokerage and services committee consists of Madame Woolsey and Messrs. Dammeyer and Sonnenschein. The brokerage and services committee reviews each Fund’s allocation of brokerage transactions and soft-dollar practices and reviews the transfer agency and shareholder servicing arrangements.
 
Each Board’s governance committee consists of Messrs. Arch, Kerr and Nelson. In addition to being Independent Trustees as defined above, each of these Trustees also

20


 

meets the additional independence requirements for nominating committee members as defined by the New York Stock Exchange and Chicago Stock Exchange listing standards. The governance committee identifies individuals qualified to serve as Independent Trustees on the Board and on committees of the Board, advises the Board with respect to Board composition, procedures and committees, develops and recommends to the Board a set of corporate governance principles applicable to the respective Fund, monitors corporate governance matters and makes recommendations to the Board, and acts as the administrative committee with respect to Board policies and procedures, committee policies and procedures and codes of ethics. The governance committee charter for each of the Funds, which includes each Fund’s nominating policies, is available at www.invesco.com/us. The Independent Trustees of the respective Fund select and nominate nominee Independent Trustees for the respective Fund. While the Independent Trustees of the respective Fund expect to be able to continue to identify from their own resources an ample number of qualified candidates for the Board of Trustees as they deem appropriate, they will consider nominations from shareholders to the Board. Nominations from shareholders should be in writing and sent to the Independent Trustees as described below.
 
Information regarding the numbers of meetings of the Board, audit committee, brokerage and services committee and governance committee of each Fund during each such Fund’s prior fiscal year is shown in Annex I. During such fiscal years, each of the Trustees of such Funds during the period such Trustee served as a Trustee attended at least 75% of the meetings of the respective Board of Trustees and all committee meetings thereof of which such Trustee was a member.
 
Shareholder Communications
 
Shareholders may send communications to each Fund’s Board of Trustees. Shareholders should send communications intended for the Board by addressing the communication directly to the Board (or individual Board members) and/or otherwise clearly indicating in the salutation that the communication is for the Board (or individual Board members) and by sending the communication to either the applicable Fund’s office or directly to such Board member(s) at the address specified for such Trustee above. Other shareholder communications received by any Fund not directly addressed and sent to the Board will be reviewed and generally responded to by management, and will be forwarded to the Board only at management’s discretion based on the matters contained therein.
 
Shareholder Approval
 
With respect to Proposal 1(a) through (c), the holders of Common Shares and Preferred Shares, where applicable, voting as a separate class, will vote on the respective nominees designated to be elected by such class of shares. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the Common Shares of each Fund present at the Meeting in person


21


 

or by proxy is required to elect each nominee for Trustee designated to be elected by the Common Shares and, where applicable, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the Preferred Shares of each Fund present at the Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect each nominee for Trustee designated to be elected by the Preferred Shares. The Board of Trustees recommends a vote “FOR ALL” of the nominees.

Shareholder Information
 
As of May 5, 2011, to the knowledge of the Funds, no shareholder owned beneficially more than 5% of a class of a Fund’s outstanding Shares except as set forth on Annex H. As of May 5, 2011, certain Trustees and executive officers owned, directly or beneficially, the number of Common Shares of each Fund as set forth in Annex E. Except as indicated on Annex E, as of May 5, 2011, the Trustees and executive officers of the Funds individually and as a group owned less than 1% of the outstanding Shares of each Fund. Trustees and executive officers who do not own any Common Shares of the Funds or Funds which are not owned by any Trustee or executive officers have been omitted from the table in Annex E. As of May 5, 2011, no Trustees or executive officers owned any Preferred Shares of the Funds. As of May 5, 2011, each Trustee beneficially owned equity securities of the Funds and other funds in the Fund Complex overseen by the Trustees in the dollar range amounts as specified in Annex F.
 
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
 
Section 30(f) of the 1940 Act and Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, require each of the Funds’ Trustees, officers, investment adviser, affiliated persons of the investment adviser and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Fund’s equity securities to file forms with the SEC and the New York Stock Exchange reporting their affiliation with the Fund and reports of ownership and changes in ownership of Fund Shares. These persons and entities are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Fund with copies of all such forms they file. Based on a review of these forms furnished to each Fund, each Fund believes that during its last fiscal year, its Trustees, officers, the Adviser and affiliated persons of the Adviser complied with the applicable filing requirements except as follows: (i) two transactions by R. Craig Kennedy, a Trustee of the Funds, in common shares of Dynamic Credit Opportunities Fund and (ii) one transaction by R. Craig Kennedy, a Trustee of the Funds, in common shares of Senior Income Trust were inadvertantly not filed in a timely manner.
 
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Board of Trustees of each Fund, including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of any Fund (as defined by the 1940 Act), appointed, effective June 1, 2010, PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP (“PWC”) as the independent registered public accounting firm of each Fund. Each Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm prior to May 31, 2010 was Deloitte & Touche LLP (“D&T” or the “Prior Auditor”). The audit committee of each Fund recommended and approved the decision to change each Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm and such decision was approved by each Fund’s Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of any Fund (as defined by the 1940 Act) in connection with the change in control of the Fund’s investment adviser, and Invesco Advisers becoming


26


 

investment adviser to each Fund (“Change in Control”). The Change in Control resulted in the Prior Auditor being prohibited from being engaged by the Funds as independent registered public accountants for the Funds’ fiscal years ended after May 31, 2010 because of certain business relationships between the accountants and certain affiliates of the Funds’ new investment adviser, Invesco Advisers, or its affiliated companies that are not permitted under the auditor independence requirements in Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X. The Funds’ Board of Trustees believes that there are operational efficiencies in having one auditor for all Invesco Funds.
 
Concurrent with the effective date of the Change in Control, the Prior Auditor resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of each Fund.
 
The Prior Auditor’s report on the financial statements of each Fund for the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the period the Prior Auditor was engaged, there were no disagreements with the Prior Auditor on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which would have caused it to make reference to that matter in connection with its report for any Fund.
 
Audit and Other Fees
 
Each Fund and certain “covered entities” were billed the amounts listed on Annex G by PWC and D&T during such Fund’s stub fiscal year ended February 28, 2011 and the two prior fiscal years.
 
The audit committee of each Board has considered whether the provision of non-audit services performed by PWC to the Funds and “covered entities” is compatible with maintaining PWC’s independence in performing audit services. The audit committee also is required to pre-approve services to “covered entities” to the extent that the services are determined to have a direct impact on the operations or financial reporting of the Funds and 100% of such services were pre-approved by the audit committee pursuant to the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures. The Board’s pre-approval policies and procedures are included as part of the Board’s audit committee charter, which is available at www.invesco.com/us.
 
It is not expected that representatives of PWC will attend the Meeting. In the event representatives of PWC do attend the Meeting, they will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to answer appropriate questions.
 
Expenses
 
The expenses of preparing, printing and mailing the enclosed form of proxy, the accompanying Notice and this Proxy Statement, and all other costs in connection with the solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Funds. These expenses will be allocated among each of the Funds in a fair and equitable manner. The Funds will also reimburse


27


 

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 of the Funds and by dealers or their representatives. The Funds may also retain The Altman Group, a professional proxy solicitation firm, to assist in additional proxy solicitation. The estimated cost of solicitation by The Altman Group is approximately $4,000 per Fund.
 
Shareholder Proposals
 
To be considered for presentation at a shareholders’ meeting, rules promulgated by the SEC generally require that, among other things, a shareholder’s proposal must be received at the offices of the relevant Fund a reasonable time before a solicitation is made. Shareholder proposals intended to be presented at the year 2012 annual meeting of shareholders for a Fund pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), must be received by the Fund at the Fund’s principal executive offices by January 17, 2012. In order for proposals made outside of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act to be considered “timely” within the meaning of Rule 14a-4(c) under the Exchange Act, such proposals must be received by the Fund at the Fund’s principal executive offices not later than April 1, 2012. Timely submission of a proposal does not necessarily mean that such proposal will be included. Any shareholder who wishes to submit a proposal for consideration at a meeting of such shareholder’s Fund should send such proposal to the respective Fund at the principal executive offices of the Fund at 1555 Peachtree Street, N.E., Atlanta, Georgia 30309, Attn: President.
 
Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Meeting to be held on June 17, 2011.
 
This Joint Proxy Statement is available on the Internet at:
www.proxy-direct.com/IVK22576
 
General
 
Management of each Fund does not intend to present and does not have reason to believe that others will present any other items of business at the Meeting. However, if other matters are properly presented to the Meeting for a vote, the proxies will be voted upon such matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons acting under the proxies.
 
A list of shareholders of each Fund entitled to be present and vote at the Meeting will be available at the offices of the respective Fund, 11 Greenway Plaza, Suite 2500, Houston, Texas 77046-1173, for inspection by any shareholder during regular business hours for ten days prior to the date of the Meeting.
 
Failure of a quorum to be present at the Meeting for any Fund may necessitate adjournment and may subject such Fund to additional expense.


28


 

If you cannot be present in person, you are requested to fill in, sign and return the enclosed proxy card, for which no postage is required if mailed in the United States, or record your voting instructions by telephone or via the internet promptly.
