Invesco PowerShares 2010 Proxy Guide

In an effort to provide additional oversight to Invesco PowerShares’ growing product line, two new members have been proposed to be added to the boards of trustees of the following three Trusts:

·The PowerShares Exchange-Traded Fund Trust;

·The PowerShares India Exchange-Traded Fund Trust; and

·The PowerShares Actively Managed Exchange-Traded Fund Trust (Active Trust).

Accordingly, shareholders of each portfolio, or exchange-traded fund (ETF), of each Trust are being requested to elect these two new members to that Trust’s board of trustees in addition to re-electing that Trust’s existing board members.

Additionally, the Board of Trustees of the Active Trust has recommended that the shareholders of the PowerShares Active Low Duration Fund and the PowerShares Active Mega Cap Fund approve a new sub-advisory agreement between Invesco PowerShares and the following affiliated sub-advisers:

·Invesco Advisers, Inc.;

·Invesco Asset Management Deutschland,GmbH;

·Invesco Asset Management Ltd.;

·Invesco Asset Management (Japan) Limited;

·Invesco Australia Limited;

·Invesco Hong Kong Limited;

·Invesco Senior Secured Management, Inc.; and

·Invesco Trimark Ltd.

The Board of Trustees of the Active Trust believes that this proposed sub-advisory agreement will provide flexibility and allow these ETFs to access a broader talent base to build the best portfolio management teams possible.

Therefore, in early March 2010, proxy statements outlining these proposals will be mailed to the shareholders of the ETFs listed on the following page.
