GENERAL QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
We encourage you to read the proxy statement in full; however, the following
represent some typical questions that shareholders may have regarding the proxy
statement.
HOW DO I VOTE?
Voting may take place in the following ways:
- You may vote your shares at www.aiminvestments.com unless your shares
are held through a broker, in which case you may vote your shares at
www.proxyvote.com. Because Internet voting is the most economical way
to vote your proxy, we encourage all shareholders to use this method.
- You may indicate your vote on the proxy card and return it in the
postage-paid envelope provided in the shareholder mailing.
- You may call in your vote at 1-888-221-0697 for the 24-hour automated
system. You will need the control number from your proxy card. You may
call 1-800-880-9347 for a customer service representative for voting
or questions; you will be asked identification questions such as your
current address and ZIP code.
- If you do attend the meeting, you may vote your shares in person.
Please notify AIM Investments at 1-800-952-3502 if you plan to attend
the meeting.
HOW DOES THE BOARD RECOMMEND THAT I VOTE?
The board recommends that you vote FOR the proposals on the proxy card.
WHY SHOULD I VOTE?
Every vote is important. If shareholders fail to vote their proxies, a fund may
not receive enough votes to go forward with the October 21, 2003, shareholder
meeting. If this happens, additional solicitations may have to be made to obtain
a quorum, or proxies may have to be resent to shareholders.
HAS AIM CONTRACTED FOR THE SERVICES OF A PROXY SOLICITOR?
Yes, AIM has hired Georgeson Shareholder Communications Inc. as its proxy
solicitor. If we do not receive your vote after a reasonable amount of time, you
may receive a telephone call from them reminding you to vote your shares.
WILL MY VOTE BE CONFIDENTIAL USING THE ONLINE PROXY VOTING SYSTEM?
The Web proxy voting system offered by proxyweb.com maintains a high level of
security to ensure the confidentiality of your vote. Security features include:
- SECURE SOCKETS LAYER (SSL) - A security measure that encrypts all
information that travels between proxyweb.com's Web server and the
shareholder's computer.
- CONTROL NUMBER - Each shareholder is required to enter his or her
control number. Proxyweb.com verifies the number and presents the
holder with the appropriate proxy card for his or her fund(s).
- FIREWALL - To protect the confidentiality of your account records,
proxyweb.com uses only control numbers and card codes to register
votes. Voted positions are then periodically uploaded to our master
database of shareholders listed as of the record date. All
account-specific data remains behind our firewall.
HOW DO I SIGN THE PROXY CARD?
The following general rules for signing proxy cards may be of assistance to you
and could help avoid the time and expense involved in validating your vote if
you fail to sign your proxy card properly.
Individual Accounts: Shareholders should sign exactly as their name appears in
the account registration shown on the proxy card.
Joint Accounts: All joint owners should sign exactly as their names appear in
the account registration shown on the proxy card.
All Other Accounts: The capacity of the individual signing the proxy card (for
example, "trustee") should be indicated unless it is reflected in the form of
registration. If a corporation, please sign full corporate name and indicate the
signer's office. If a partner, please sign in the partnership name.
WHAT IS THE DEADLINE FOR VOTING?
All votes must be received before or at the Shareholder Meeting, which will be
held at 3:00 p.m. Central Time on October 21, 2003.

statement.

HOW DOES THE BOARD RECOMMEND THAT I VOTE?
The board recommends that you vote FOR the proposals on the proxy card.
WHY SHOULD I VOTE?
Every vote is important. If shareholders fail to vote their proxies, a fund may
not receive enough votes to go forward with the October 21, 2003, shareholder
meeting. If this happens, additional solicitations may have to be made to obtain
a quorum, or proxies may have to be resent to shareholders.
HAS AIM CONTRACTED FOR THE SERVICES OF A PROXY SOLICITOR?
Yes, AIM has hired Georgeson Shareholder Communications Inc. as its proxy
solicitor. If we do not receive your vote after a reasonable amount of time, you
may receive a telephone call from them reminding you to vote your shares.
WILL MY VOTE BE CONFIDENTIAL USING THE ONLINE PROXY VOTING SYSTEM?
The Web proxy voting system offered by proxyweb.com maintains a high level of
security to ensure the confidentiality of your vote. Security features include:
- SECURE SOCKETS LAYER (SSL) - A security measure that encrypts all
information that travels between proxyweb.com's Web server and the
shareholder's computer.
- CONTROL NUMBER - Each shareholder is required to enter his or her
control number. Proxyweb.com verifies the number and presents the
holder with the appropriate proxy card for his or her fund(s).
- FIREWALL - To protect the confidentiality of your account records,
proxyweb.com uses only control numbers and card codes to register
votes. Voted positions are then periodically uploaded to our master
database of shareholders listed as of the record date. All
account-specific data remains behind our firewall.
HOW DO I SIGN THE PROXY CARD?
The following general rules for signing proxy cards may be of assistance to you
and could help avoid the time and expense involved in validating your vote if
you fail to sign your proxy card properly.
Individual Accounts: Shareholders should sign exactly as their name appears in
the account registration shown on the proxy card.
Joint Accounts: All joint owners should sign exactly as their names appear in
the account registration shown on the proxy card.
All Other Accounts: The capacity of the individual signing the proxy card (for
