Dear Shareholder:

We recently sent you a Joint Proxy Statement concerning an important proposal affecting the Invesco Funds listed above (the “Funds”), which will be considered at a Special Meeting of Shareholders on January 22, 2021, 2:00 p.m. Central Time via virtual meeting. This letter was sent to you because you held shares in the Fund on the record date and we have not received your vote.

The Boards recommend that the Funds be reclassified as “non-diversified” funds. The asset classes in which the Funds invest have experienced changes that have made it difficult for the Funds to pursue their existing investment strategies while maintaining their diversification status under applicable securities laws and regulations. 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 applicable securities laws and regulations.

YOUR FUND’S BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE PROPOSAL
