INVESTMENT GOALS, STRATEGIES, AND RISKS

FACTORS COMMON TO ALL THE FUNDS

FOR MORE DETAILS ABOUT  The funds seek capital growth; the AIM Utilities
EACH FUND'S CURRENT     Fund also attempts to earn income for you. The
INVESTMENTS AND MARKET  funds are actively managed. They invest primarily

OUTLOOK, PLEASE SEE THE in equity securities that the advisor believes MOST RECENT ANNUAL OR will rise in price faster than other securities, SEMIANNUAL REPORT. as well as in options and other investments whose values are based upon the values of equity securities.

Each fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in the equity securities and equity-related instru-ments of companies doing business in the economic sector described by its name. At any given time, 20% of each fund's assets is not required to be invested in the sector. To determine whether a potential investment is truly doing business in a particular sector, a company must meet at least one of the follow-ing tests:

. At least 50% of its gross income or its net sales must come from activities in the sector;
. At least 50% of its assets must be devoted to producing revenues from the sector; or
. Based on other available information, we determine that its primary business is within the sector.

AIM Energy Fund, AIM Financial Services Fund, AIM Leisure Fund, AIM Technology Fund and AIM Utilities Fund may invest up to 25% of their respective assets in securities of non-U.S. issuers. Securities of Canadian issuers and American Depositary Receipts are not subject to this 25% limitation. Foreign securities risks are potentially greater for the AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund, since that fund has the ability to invest more than 25% of its assets in the securities of non-U.S. issuers.

The advisor uses a research oriented "bottom-up" investment approach to create each fund's investment portfolio, focusing on company fundamentals and growth prospects when selecting securities. In general, the funds emphasize companies that the advisor believes are strongly managed and will generate above-average long-term capital appreciation.

Growth investing may be more volatile than other investment styles because growth stocks are more sensitive to investor perceptions of an issuing company's growth potential. Growth-oriented funds typically will underperform value-oriented funds when investor sentiment favors the value investing style. Value investing seeks securities, particularly stocks, that are currently undervalued by the market -- companies that are performing well, or have solid management and products, but whose stock prices do not reflect that value. Through our value process, we seek to provide reasonably consistent returns over a variety of market cycles. Value-oriented funds typically will underperform growth-oriented funds when investor sentiment favors the growth investing style.

As sector funds, each fund is concentrated in a comparatively narrow segment of the economy. This means a fund's investment concentration in a sector is higher than most mutual funds and the broad securities markets. Consequently, the funds tend to be more volatile than other mutual funds, and the value of their portfolio investments and consequently the value of an investment in a fund tend to go up and down more rapidly.

2

The funds are subject to other principal risks, as applicable, such as market, foreign securities, liquidity, derivatives, counterparty, lack of timely information, and portfolio turnover risks. These risks are described and discussed later in the Prospectus under the headings "Investment Risks" and "Principal Risks Associated With The Funds." An investment in a fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. As with any mutual fund, there is always a risk that you may lose money on your investment in a fund.

The funds are concentrated in these sectors:

[GRAPHIC]
AIM ENERGY FUND -- INVESTOR CLASS, CLASS A, B, AND C

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in the equity securities and equity-related instruments of companies within the energy sector. These companies include, but are not limited to, oil companies, oil and gas exploration companies, natural gas pipeline companies, refinery companies, energy conservation companies, coal, alternative energy companies, and innovative energy technology companies.

Generally, we prefer to keep the fund's investments divided among the four main energy subsectors: major oil companies, energy services, oil and gas exploration/production companies, and natural gas pipeline companies. We adjust portfolio weightings depending on current economic conditions. Although individual security selection drives the performance of the fund, short-term fluctuations in commodity prices may influence fund returns and increase price fluctuations in the fund's shares. The businesses in which we invest may be adversely affected by foreign government, federal, or state regulations on energy production, distribution, and sale.

[GRAPHIC]
AIM FINANCIAL SERVICES FUND -- INVESTOR CLASS, CLASS A, B, AND C

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in the equity securities and equity-related instruments of companies involved in the financial services sector. These companies include, but are not limited to, banks (regional and money-centers), insurance companies (life, property and casualty, and multiline), investment and miscellaneous industries (asset managers, brokerage firms, and government-sponsored agencies), and suppliers to financial services companies.

We place a greater emphasis on companies that are increasing their revenue streams along with their earnings. We seek companies that we believe can grow their revenues and earnings in a variety of interest rate environments -- although securities prices of financial services companies generally are interest rate sensitive. We seek companies with successful sales and marketing cultures and that leverage technologies in their operations and distribution. We adjust portfolio weightings depending on current economic conditions and relative valuations of securities.

This sector generally is subject to extensive governmental regulation, which may change frequently. In addition, the profitability of businesses in these industries depends heavily upon the availability and cost of money, and may fluctuate significantly in response to changes in interest rates, as well as changes in general economic conditions. From time to time, severe competition may also affect the profitability of these industries.

[GRAPHIC]
AIM GOLD & PRECIOUS METALS FUND -- INVESTOR CLASS, CLASS A, B, AND C

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in the equity securities and equity-related instruments of companies involved in exploring for, mining, processing, or dealing and investing in gold, gold bullion, and other precious metals, such as silver, platinum, and palladium, as well as diamonds. The securities of these companies are highly dependent on the price of precious metals at any given time.

Fluctuations in the price of gold directly -- and often dramatically -- affect the profitability and market value of companies in this sector. Changes in political or economic climate for the two largest gold producers -- South Africa and the former Soviet Union -- may have a direct impact on the price of gold worldwide. Up to 10% of the fund's assets at the time of purchase may be invested in gold bullion. The fund's investments directly in gold bullion will earn no income return; appreciation in the market price of gold is the sole manner in which the fund can realize gains on bullion investments. The fund may have higher storage and custody costs in connection with its ownership of bullion than those associated with the purchase, holding and sale of more traditional types of investments.

3

The fund primarily focuses on those gold companies that have the ability to increase production capacity at low costs, while having the potential to make major gold discoveries around the world. Additionally, we try to identify companies that leverage increasing gold prices; that is, companies that do not hedge gold prices on the market. While the fund may take positions in mid- to small-sized exploration companies that may be more volatile than investments in large, more established companies, it will primarily focus on major gold stocks that are leaders in their fields. Up to 100% of the fund's assets may be invested in foreign companies.

[GRAPHIC]
AIM LEISURE FUND -- INVESTOR CLASS, CLASS A, B, C, AND R

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in the equity securities and equity-related instruments of companies engaged in the design, production, and distribution of products related to the leisure activities. These industries include, but are not limited to, hotels/gaming, publishing, advertising, beverages, audio/video, broadcasting-radio/TV, cable & satellite operators, cable & satellite programmers, motion pictures & TV, recreation services/entertainment, retail, and toys.

We seek firms that can grow their businesses regardless of the economic environment. The advisor attempts to keep the portfolio well diversified across the leisure sector, adjusting portfolio weightings depending on prevailing economic conditions and relative valuations of securities. This sector depends on consumer discretionary spending, which generally falls during economic downturns. Securities of gambling casinos often are subject to high price volatility and are considered speculative. Video and electronic games are subject to risks of rapid obsolescence.

[GRAPHIC]
AIM TECHNOLOGY FUND -- INVESTOR CLASS, CLASS A, B, AND C

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in the equity securities and equity-related instruments of companies engaged in technology-related industries. These include, but are not limited to, various applied technologies, hardware, software, semiconductors, telecommunications equipment and services, and service-related companies in information technology. Many of these products and services are subject to rapid obsolescence, which may lower the market value of the securities of the companies in this sector.

A core portion of the fund's portfolio is invested in market-leading technology companies among various subsectors in the technology universe that we believe will maintain or improve their market share regardless of overall economic conditions. These companies are leaders in their field and are believed to have a strategic advantage over many of their competitors. The remainder of the fund's portfolio consists of faster-growing, more volatile technology companies that the advisor believes to be emerging leaders in their fields. The market prices of these companies tend to rise and fall more rapidly than those of larger, more established companies.

[GRAPHIC]
AIM UTILITIES FUND -- INVESTOR CLASS, CLASS A, B, AND C

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in the equity securities and equity-related instruments of companies engaged in utilities-related industries. These include, but are not limited to, companies that produce, generate, transmit, or distribute natural gas or electricity, as well as companies that provide telecommunications services, including local, long distance and wireless.

Governmental regulation, difficulties in obtaining adequate financing and investment return, environmental issues, prices of fuel for generation of electricity, availability of natural gas, risks associated with power marketing and trading, and risks associated with nuclear power facilities may adversely affect the market value of the fund's holdings. The recent trend towards deregulation in the utility industries presents special risks. Some companies may be faced with increased competition and may become less profitable.

Normally, the advisor seeks to keep the portfolio divided among the electric utilities, natural gas, and telecommunications industries. Weightings within the various industry segments are continually monitored, and we adjust the portfolio weightings depending on the prevailing economic conditions.

FUND PERFORMANCE

Performance information in the bar charts below is that of the funds' Investor Class shares, which have the longest operating history of the funds' classes. Information included in the table is that of Investor Class, Class A, B and C shares, and, if applicable, Class R shares. Investor Class and Class A, B, C, and R share returns would be similar because all classes of shares invest in the same portfolio of securities. The returns of the classes would differ, however, to the extent of differing levels of expenses or

4

sales loads. In this regard, the returns reflected in the bar charts reflect only the applicable total expenses of the Investor Class shares. If the effect of the other classes' total expenses were reflected, the returns would be lower than those shown because the other classes have higher total expenses.

The bar charts below show the funds' Investor Class shares actual yearly performance (commonly known as their "total return") for the years ended December 31 over the past decade or since inception. The returns in the bar charts do not reflect a 12b-1 fee in excess of 0.25% or sales loads; if they did, the total returns shown would be lower. The table below shows the pre-tax and after-tax average annual total returns of Investor Class shares and pre-tax average annual total returns for Class A, B and C shares for various periods ended December 31, 2004. The after-tax returns are shown only for the Investor Class shares. After-tax returns for other classes of shares offered in this Prospectus will vary.

After-tax returns are provided on a pre-redemption and post-redemption basis. Pre-redemption returns assume you continue to hold your shares and pay taxes on fund distributions (i.e., dividends and capital gains) but do not reflect taxes that may be incurred upon selling or exchanging shares. Post-redemption returns assume payment of taxes on fund distributions and also that you close your account and pay remaining federal taxes. After-tax returns are calculated using the highest individual federal marginal income tax rates in effect at the time the distribution is paid. State and local taxes are not considered. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown. For investors holding their shares in tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts, the after-tax returns shown are not relevant.

The information in the bar charts illustrates the variability of each fund's total return by showing changes in the funds' performance year to year. The information in the tables illustrates the variability of each fund's Investor Class, Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class R shares, as applicable, total return compared to a broad-based securities market index, a style specific index and/or a peer group index. The indices may not reflect payment of fees, expenses or taxes. The fund is not managed to track the performance of any particular index, including the indices shown below, and consequently, the performance of the fund may deviate significantly from the performance of the indices shown below. Remember, past performance (before and after taxes) does not indicate how a fund will perform in the future.

/1/ If you buy $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares and redeem those shares within eighteen months from the date of purchase, you may pay a 1% contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) at the time of redemption. For qualified plans investing in Class R shares, you may pay a CDSC of 0.75% on your Class R shares if the distributor paid a concession to the dealer of record and if the plan is redeemed within twelve months from initial deposit in the plan's account.

/2/ A 5% and 1% CDSC may be charged on Class B and Class C shares, respectively. Please see the section entitled "How To Buy Shares." /3/ There is no guarantee that actual expenses will be the same as those shown in the table.
/4/ Because each class pays a 12b-1 distribution and service fee which is based upon each class's assets, if you own shares of a fund for a certain period of time, you may pay more than the economic equivalent of the maximum front-end sales charge permitted for mutual funds by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. /5/ The Board of Trustees has approved a permanent reduction of the Rule 12b-1 fees applicable to Class A shares to 0.25% effective July 1, 2005. Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees reflect this agreement.

/6/ The fund's advisor has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit Total Annual Operating Expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) for AIM Energy Fund, AIM Financial Services Fund, AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund, AIM Leisure Fund and AIM Utilities Fund to 1.90%, 1.90%, 2.65%, 2.65% and 2.15% of average daily net assets on Investor Class, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares, respectively and for AIM Technology Fund to 1.55%, 1.55%, 2.30% and 2.30% of average daily net assets on Investor Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the Total Annual Operating Expense to exceed the caps stated above: (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expenses on short sales; (iv) extraordinary items (these are expenses that are not anticipated to arise from the fund's day-to-day operations), or items designated as such by the fund's Board of Trustees; (v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the fund's Board of Trustees; and (vi) expenses that the fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Currently, in addition to the expense reimbursement arrangement with AMVESCAP (as defined herein) described more fully below, the only expense offset arrangements from which the fund benefits are in the form of credits that the fund receives from banks where the fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. Those credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by the fund. This expense limitation agreement is in effect through March 31, 2006 for AIM Energy Fund, AIM Financial Services Fund, AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund, AIM Leisure Fund and AIM Utilities Fund and June 30, 2006 for AIM Technology Fund.
/7/ At the request of the Board of Trustees, AMVESCAP (as defined herein) has agreed to reimburse the fund for expenses related to market timing matters. Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses restated for the item in Note 5 above and net of this arrangement were 1.37%, 1.37%, 2.12% and 2.12% for Investor Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for the year ended March 31, 2005.
/8/ At the request of the Board of Trustees, AMVESCAP (as defined herein) has agreed to reimburse the fund for expenses related to market timing matters. Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses restated for the item in Note 5 above and net of this arrangement were 1.28%, 1.28%, 2.03% and 2.03% for Investor Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for the year ended March 31, 2005.

/9/ At the request of the Board of Trustees, AMVESCAP (as defined herein) has agreed to reimburse the fund for expenses related to market timing matters. Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses restated for the item in Note 5 above and net of this arrangement were 1.59%, 1.59%, 2.34% and 2.34% for Investor Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for the year ended March 31, 2005.

/10/At the request of the Board of Trustees, AMVESCAP (as defined herein) has agreed to reimburse the fund for expenses related to market timing matters. Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses restated for the item in Note 5 above and net of this arrangement were 1.32%, 1.32%, 2.07% and 2.07% for Investor Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for the year ended March 31, 2005.
/11/At the request of the Board of Trustees, AMVESCAP (as defined herein) has agreed to reimburse the fund for expenses related to market timing matters. Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses restated for the items in Note 5 and Note 6 above and net of this arrangement were 1.55%, 1.55%, 2.30% and 2.30% for Investor Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for the year ended March 31, 2005.

/12/The fund's advisory has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding certain items discussed above) for AIM Utilities Fund's Investor Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares to 1.30%, 1.30%, 2.05% and 2.05%, respectively. The expense limitation agreement may be modified or discontinued upon consultation with the Board of Trustees without further notice to investors.
/13/At the request of the Board of Trustees, AMVESCAP (as defined herein) has agreed to reimburse the fund for expenses related to market timing matters. Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses restated for the item in Note 12 and net of this arrangement were 1.30%, 1.30%, 2.05% and 2.05% for Investor Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for the year ended March 31, 2005.

If a financial institution is managing your account, you may also be charged a transaction or other fee by such financial institution.

As a result of 12b-1 fees long-term shareholders in the fund may pay more than the maximum permitted initial sales charge.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Investor Class, Class A, Class B, Class C, and, if applicable, Class R shares of the funds to the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example assumes that you invested $10,000 in Investor Class, Class A, Class B, Class C, or Class R shares of a fund for the time periods indicated. Within each Example, there is an assumption that you redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment had a hypothetical 5% return each year, that a fund's Investor Class, Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class R shares' operating expenses remain the same and includes the effect of any contractual fee and/or expense reimbursement, if any. To the extent fees are waived and/or expenses are reimbursed voluntarily, your expenses will be lower. Although the actual costs and performance of a fund's Investor Class, Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class R shares may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

HYPOTHETICAL INVESTMENT AND EXPENSE INFORMATION

The following supplemental hypothetical investment information provides additional information in a different format from the preceding Fee Table and Expense Example about the effect of the fund's expenses, including investment advisory fees and other fund costs, on the fund's return over a 10-year period. Because the fund's annual return when quoted is already reduced by the fund's fees and expenses for that year, this hypothetical expense information is intended to help you understand the annual and cumulative impact of the fund's fees and expenses on your investment. Assuming a hypothetical investment of $10,000 in each class of each fund and a 5% return before expenses each year, the chart shows the cumulative return before expenses, the cumulative return after expenses, the ending balance and the estimated annual expenses for each year one through ten. The chart also assumes that the current annual expense ratio stays the same throughout the 10-year period. The current annual expense ratio, which is the same as stated in the Fee Table above, is reflected in the chart and is net of any contractual fee waiver or expense reimbursement. There is no assurance that the current annual expense ratio will be the expense ratio for the fund class. To the extent that the advisor makes any waivers or reimbursements pursuant to a voluntary arrangement, your actual expenses may be less. The chart does not take into account initial or contingent deferred sales charges, if any. You should understand that this is only a hypothetical presentation made to illustrate what expenses and returns would be under the above scenarios; your actual returns and expenses are likely to differ (higher or lower) from those shown below.

[LOGO]INVESTMENT RISKS

BEFORE INVESTING IN A You should determine the level of risk with which FUND, YOU SHOULD DE- you are comfortable before you invest. The TERMINE THE LEVEL OF RISK principal risks of investing in any mutual fund, WITH WHICH YOU ARE COM- including these funds, are:
FORTABLE. TAKE INTO
ACCOUNT FACTORS LIKE NOT INSURED. Mutual funds are not insured by the YOUR AGE, CAREER, INCOME FDIC or any other government agency, unlike bank LEVEL, AND TIME HORIZON. deposits such as CDs or savings accounts.

NO GUARANTEE. No mutual fund can guarantee that it will meet its investment objectives.

POSSIBLE LOSS OF INVESTMENT. A mutual fund cannot guarantee its performance, nor assure you that the market value of your investment will increase. You may lose the money you invest, and the funds will not reimburse you for any of these losses.

VOLATILITY. The price of your mutual fund shares will increase or decrease with changes in the value of a fund's underlying investments and changes in the equity markets as a whole.

NOT A COMPLETE INVESTMENT PLAN. An investment in any mutual fund does not constitute a complete investment plan. The funds are designed to be only a part of your personal investment plan.

[LOGO]PRINCIPAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUNDS

You should consider the special risk factors discussed below associated with the funds' policies in determining the appropriateness of investing in a fund. See the Statement of Additional Information for a discussion of additional risk factors.

MARKET RISK

Equity stock prices vary and may fall, thus reducing the value of a fund's investments. Certain stocks selected for any fund's portfolio may decline in value more than the overall stock market. In general, the securities of small companies are more volatile than those of mid-size companies or large companies.

FOREIGN SECURITIES RISKS

Investments in foreign and emerging markets carry special risks, including currency, political, regulatory, and diplomatic risks.

CURRENCY RISK. A change in the exchange rate between U.S. dollars and a foreign currency may reduce the value of a fund's investment in a security valued in the foreign currency, or based on that currency value.

POLITICAL RISK. Political actions, events, or instability may result in unfavorable changes in the value of a security.

REGULATORY RISK. Government regulations may affect the value of a security. In foreign countries, securities markets that are less regulated than those in the U.S. may permit trading practices that are not allowed in the U.S.

DIPLOMATIC RISK. A change in diplomatic relations between the U.S. and a foreign country could affect the value or liquidity of investments.

17

LIQUIDITY RISK

A fund's portfolio is liquid if the fund is able to sell the securities it owns at a fair price within a reasonable time. Liquidity is generally related to the market trading volume for a particular security. Investments in smaller companies or in foreign companies or companies in emerging markets are subject to a variety of risks, including potential lack of liquidity.

DERIVATIVES RISK

A derivative is a financial instrument whose value is "derived," in some manner, from the price of another security, index, asset, or rate. Derivatives include options and futures contracts, among a wide range of other instruments. The principal risk of investments in derivatives is that the fluctuations in their values may not correlate perfectly with the overall securities markets. Some derivatives are more sensitive to interest rate changes and market price fluctuations than others. Also, derivatives are subject to counterparty risk, described below.

Options and futures are common types of derivatives that a fund may occasionally use to hedge its investments. An option is the right to buy and sell a security or other instrument, index, or commodity at a specific price on or before a specific date. A future is an agreement to buy or sell a security or other instrument, index, or commodity at a specific price on a specific date. The use of options and futures may increase the performance of the fund, but also may increase market risk. Other types of derivatives include futures, swaps, caps, floors, and collars.

COUNTERPARTY RISK

This is a risk associated primarily with repurchase agreements and some derivatives transactions. It is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligation to complete the transaction with a fund.

LACK OF TIMELY INFORMATION RISK

Timely information about a security or its issuer may be unavailable, incomplete, or inaccurate. This risk is more common to securities issued by foreign companies and companies in emerging markets than it is to the securities of U.S.-based companies.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER RISK

A fund's investments may be bought and sold relatively frequently. A high turnover rate may affect a fund's performance because it results in higher brokerage commissions and may result in taxable gain distributions to a fund's shareholders.


Although each fund generally invests in equity securities of companies in the economic sector described by its name, the funds also may invest in other types of securities and other financial instruments, indicated in the chart below. Although these investments typically are not part of any fund's principal investment strategy, they may constitute a significant portion of a fund's portfolio, thereby possibly exposing a fund and its investors to the following additional risks.

can cause its net asset value to rise or fall. A fund may use
these financial instruments, commonly known as

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[LOGO]TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS

When securities markets or economic conditions are unfavorable or unsettled, we might try to protect the assets of a fund by investing in securities that are highly liquid, such as high-quality money market instruments like short-term U.S. government obligations, commercial paper, or repurchase agreements, even though that is not the normal investment strategy of any fund. We have the right to invest up to 100% of a fund's assets in these securities, although we are unlikely to do so. Even though the securities purchased for defensive purposes often are considered the equivalent of cash, they also have their own risks. Investments that are highly liquid or comparatively safe tend to offer lower returns. Therefore, a fund's performance could be comparatively lower if it concentrates in defensive holdings.

On October 8, 2004, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. (IFG) (the former investment advisor to certain AIM funds), AIM and A I M Distributors, Inc. (ADI) (the distributor of the retail AIM funds) reached final settlements with certain regulators, including the SEC, the New York Attorney General and the Colorado Attorney General, to resolve civil enforcement actions and/or investigations related to market timing and related activity in the AIM funds, including those formerly advised by IFG. As part of the settlements, a $325 million fair fund ($110 million of which is civil penalties) is being created to compensate shareholders harmed by market timing and related activity in funds formerly advised by IFG. Additionally, AIM and ADI agreed to create a $50 million fair fund ($30 million of which is civil penalties) to compensate shareholders harmed by market timing and related activity in funds advised by AIM. These two fair funds may increase as a result of contributions from third parties who reach final settlements with the SEC or other regulators to resolve allegations of market timing and/or late trading that also may have harmed applicable AIM funds. These two fair funds will be distributed in accordance with a methodology to be determined by AIM's independent distribution consultant, in consultation with AIM and the independent trustees of the AIM funds and acceptable to the staff of the SEC.

Civil lawsuits, including a regulatory proceeding and purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against certain of the AIM funds, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or related entities and individuals, depending on the lawsuit, alleging among other things: (i) that the defendants permitted improper market timing and related activity in the funds; (ii) that certain funds inadequately employed fair value pricing;
(iii) that the defendants charged excessive advisory and/or distribution fees and failed to pass on to shareholders the perceived savings generated by economies of scale and that the defendants adopted unlawful distribution plans; (iv) that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by charging distribution fees while funds and/or specific share classes were closed generally to new investors and/or while other share classes of the same fund were not charged the same distribution fees; (v) that the defendants improperly used the assets of the funds to pay brokers to aggressively promote the sale of the funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions; and (vi) that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the funds participated in class action settlements in which they were eligible to participate.

Additional civil lawsuits related to the above or other matters may be filed by regulators or private litigants against the AIM funds, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or related entities and individuals in the future. You can find more detailed information concerning all of the above matters, including the parties to the civil lawsuits and summaries of the various allegations and remedies sought in such lawsuits, in the fund's Statement of Additional Information.

As a result of the matters discussed above, investors in the AIM funds might react by redeeming their investments. This might require the funds to sell investments to provide for sufficient liquidity and could also have an adverse effect on the investment performance of the funds.

OTHER INFORMATION

SUITABILITY FOR INVESTORS

Only you can determine if an investment in a fund is right for you based upon your own economic situation, the risk level with which you are comfortable and other factors. In general, the funds are most suitable for investors who:
. are willing to grow their capital over the long-term (at least five years).
. can accept the additional risks and volatility associated with sector investing.

21

. understand that shares of a fund can, and likely will, have daily price fluctuations.
. are investing through tax-deferred retirement accounts, such as traditional and Roth Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), as well as employer-sponsored qualified retirement plans, including 401(k)s and
403(b)s, all of which have longer investment horizons.

You probably do not want to invest in the funds if you are:
. primarily seeking current dividend income (although AIM Utilities Fund does seek to provide income in addition to capital growth).
. unwilling to accept potentially significant changes in the price of fund shares.
. speculating on short-term fluctuations in the stock markets.

SALES CHARGES

Purchases of Class A shares of AIM Energy Fund, AIM Financial Services Fund, AIM Gold & Precious Metal Fund, AIM Leisure Fund, AIM Technology Fund and AIM Utilities Fund are subject to the maximum 5.50% initial sales charge as listed under the heading "Category I Initial Sales Charges" in the "Shareholder Information -- Choosing a Share Class" section of this prospectus. Certain purchases of Class A and Class R shares at net asset value may be subject to the contingent deferred sales charge listed in that section.

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS

The funds earn ordinary or investment income primarily from dividends and interest on their investments. AIM Energy Fund, AIM Financial Services Fund, AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund, AIM Leisure Fund and AIM Technology Fund expect to distribute their respective investment income, less fund expenses, to shareholders annually. AIM Utilities Fund expects to make such distributions quarterly. All funds can make distributions at other times, if they choose to do so. Please note that classes with higher expenses are expected to have lower dividends.

                                    which are derived from the sale of assets held
                                    one year or less, are taxed as ordinary income.
                                    Long-term capital gains, which are derived from
                                    the sale of assets held for more than one year,
                                    are taxed at up to the maximum capital gains
                                    rate, currently 15% for individuals.

A fund's daily NAV reflects all ordinary income and realized capital gains that have not yet been distributed to shareholders. Therefore, a fund's NAV will drop by the amount of a distribution, net of market fluctuations, on the day the distribution is declared. If you buy shares of a fund just before a distribution is declared, you may wind up "buying a distribution." This means that if the fund declares a dividend or capital gain distribution shortly after you buy, you will receive some of your investment back as a taxable distribution. Although purchasing your shares at the resulting higher NAV may mean a smaller capital gain or greater loss upon sale of the shares, most shareholders want to avoid the purchase of shares immediately before the distribution record date. However, keep in mind that your basis in the fund will be increased to the extent such distributions are reinvested in the fund. If you sell your shares of a fund at a loss for tax purposes and then replace those shares with a substantially identical investment either thirty days before or after that sale, the transaction is usually considered a "wash sale" and you will not be able to claim a tax loss at the time of sale. Instead, the loss will be deferred to a later date.

Dividends and capital gain distributions paid by each fund are automatically reinvested in additional fund shares at the NAV on the ex-distribution date, unless you choose to have them automatically reinvested in another AIM fund or paid to you by check or electronic funds transfer. Dividends and other distributions, whether received in cash or reinvested in additional fund shares, are generally subject to federal income tax.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The financial highlights table is intended to help you understand the financial performance of the various classes of each fund for the past five years (or, if shorter, the period of the class's operations). Certain information reflects financial results for a single fund share. The total returns in the table represent the annual percentages that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in a fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). This information has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, whose report, along with the financial statements, is included in each fund's 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders, which is incorporated by reference into the Statement of Additional Information.

AIM Leisure's Class R shares commenced operations on October 25, 2005 and therefore, financial information for such shares is not available.

THE AIM FUNDS

SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION

In addition to the fund, AIM serves as investment advisor to many other mutual funds (the funds). The following information is about all the funds.

CHOOSING A SHARE CLASS
Most of the funds have multiple classes of shares, each class representing an interest in the same portfolio of investments. Certain classes have higher expenses than other classes which may lower the return on your investment relative to a less expensive class. In deciding which class of shares to purchase, you should consider, among other things, (i) the length of time you expect to hold your shares, (ii) the provisions of the distribution plan, if any, applicable to the class (iii) the eligibility requirements that apply to purchases of a particular class, and (iv) any services you may receive in making your investment determination. In addition, you should consider the other factors described below. Please contact your financial advisor to assist you in making your decision.

Certain funds also offer Institutional Class shares to certain eligible institutional investors; consult the fund's Statement of Additional Information for the Institutional Class shares for details.

/1/ As of the close of business on October 30, 2002, Class A shares of AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund were closed to new investors.
/2/ A contingent deferred sales charge may apply in some cases.
/3/ Class A shares of AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund and Investor Class shares of AIM Money Market Fund, AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio do not have a 12b-1 fee.
/4/ Class B shares are not available as an investment for retirement plans maintained pursuant to Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. These plans include 401(k) plans (including AIM Solo 401(k) plans), money purchase pension plans and profit sharing plans. Plans that have existing accounts invested in Class B shares will continue to be allowed to make additional purchases.
/5/ AIM Money Market Fund: Class B shares convert to AIM Cash Reserve Shares.
AIM Global Equity Fund: If you held Class B shares on May 29, 1998 and continue to hold them, those shares will convert to Class A shares of that fund at the end of the month which is seven years after the date on which shares were purchased. If you exchange those shares for Class B shares of another fund, the shares into which you exchanged will not convert to Class A shares until the end of the month which is eight years after the date on which you purchased your original shares.

THE AIM FUNDS

/6/ Any purchase order for Class B shares in an amount equal to or in excess of $100,000 will be rejected. Although our ability to monitor or enforce this limitation for underlying shareholders of omnibus accounts is severely limited, we have advised the administrators of omnibus accounts maintained by brokers, retirement plans and approved fee-based programs of this limitation.
/7/ A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) does not apply to redemption of Class C shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund unless you exchange Class C shares of another fund that are subject to a CDSC into AIM Short Term Bond Fund.
/8/ Any purchase order for Class C shares in an amount equal to or in excess of $1,000,000 will be rejected. Although our ability to monitor or enforce this limitation for underlying shareholders of omnibus accounts is severely limited, we have advised the administrators of omnibus accounts maintained by brokers, retirement plans and approved fee-based programs of this limitation.
/9/ Generally, Class R shares are only available to employee benefit plans.
These may include, for example, retirement and deferred compensation plans maintained pursuant to Sections 401, 403, 457 of the Internal Revenue Code; nonqualified deferred compensation plans; health savings accounts maintained pursuant to Section 223 of the Internal Revenue Code, respectively; and voluntary employees' beneficiary arrangements maintained pursuant to Section 501(c)(9) of the Internal Revenue Code. Retirement plans maintained pursuant to Section 401 generally include 401(k) plans, profit sharing plans, money purchase pension plans, and defined benefit plans. Retirement plans maintained pursuant to Section 403 must be established and maintained by non-profit organizations operating pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code in order to purchase Class R shares. Class R shares are generally not available for individual retirement accounts such as traditional, Roth, SEP, SAR-SEP and SIMPLE IRAs.

DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE (12B-1) FEES
Each fund (except AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund with respect to its Class A shares and AIM Money Market Fund, AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio with respect to their Investor Class shares) has adopted 12b-1 plans that allow the fund to pay distribution fees to A I M Distributors, Inc. (ADI) for the sale and distribution of its shares and fees for services provided to shareholders, all or a substantial portion of which are paid to the dealer of record. Because the fund pays these fees out of its assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

SALES CHARGES
Sales charges on the funds and classes of those funds are detailed below. As used below, the term "offering price" with respect to all categories of Class A shares includes the initial sales charge.
Certain categories of persons are permitted to purchase Class A shares of the funds without paying an initial sales charge because their transactions involve little expense, such as persons who have a relationship with the funds or with AIM and certain programs for purchase.

THE AIM FUNDS

SHARES SOLD WITHOUT A SALES CHARGE
You will not pay an initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund or AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund.
You will not pay an initial sales charge or a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) on Class A3 shares of AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund.
You will not pay an initial sales charge or a CDSC on Investor Class shares of any fund.

CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGES FOR CLASS A SHARES AND AIM CASH RESERVE SHARES OF AIM MONEY MARKET FUND
You can purchase $1,000,000 or more (a Large Purchase) of Class A shares of Category I and II funds and AIM Short Term Bond Fund at net asset value. However, if you redeem these shares prior to 18 months after the date of purchase, they will be subject to a CDSC of 1%.
If you currently own Class A shares of a Category I or II fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund and make additional purchases at net asset value that result in account balances of $1,000,000 or more, the additional shares purchased will be subject to an 18-month,
1% CDSC.
Some retirement plans can purchase Class A shares at their net asset value per share. If ADI paid a concession to the dealer of record in connection with a Large Purchase of Class A shares by a retirement plan, the Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC at the time of redemption if all retirement plan assets are redeemed within one year from the date of the plan's initial purchase.
You may be charged a CDSC when you redeem AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund or Class A shares of AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund if you acquired those shares through an exchange, and the shares originally purchased were subject to a CDSC.
ADI may pay a dealer concession and/or a service fee for Large Purchases and purchases by certain retirement plans.

CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGES FOR CLASS B AND CLASS C SHARES
You can purchase Class B and Class C shares at their net asset value per share. However, when you redeem them, they are subject to a CDSC in the following percentages:

YEAR SINCE
PURCHASE MADE         CLASS B CLASS C
-------------------------------------
First                   5%      1%
Second                   4     None
Third                    3     None
Fourth                   3     None
Fifth                    2     None
Sixth                    1     None
Seventh and following  None    None
-------------------------------------

You can purchase Class C shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund at their net asset value and not subject to a CDSC. However, you may be charged a CDSC when you redeem Class C shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund if you acquired those shares through an exchange, and the shares originally purchased were subject to a CDSC.

CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGES FOR CLASS R SHARES
You can purchase Class R shares at their net asset value per share. If ADI pays a concession to the dealer of record, however, the Class R shares are subject to a 0.75% CDSC at the time of redemption if all retirement plan assets are redeemed within 12 months from the date of the retirement plan's initial purchase.

COMPUTING A CDSC
The CDSC on redemptions of shares is computed based on the lower of their original purchase price or current market value, net of reinvested dividends and capital gains distributions. In determining whether to charge a CDSC, we will assume that you are redeeming shares on which there is no CDSC first and, then, shares in the order of purchase.

REDUCED SALES CHARGES AND SALES CHARGE EXCEPTIONS
You may qualify for reduced sales charges or sales charge exceptions. To qualify for these reductions or exceptions, you or your financial advisor must notify the transfer agent at the time of purchase that your purchase qualifies for such treatment. Certain individuals and employer-sponsored retirement plans may link accounts for the purpose of qualifying for lower initial sales charges. You or your financial consultant must provide other account numbers to be considered for Rights of Accumulation, or mark the Letter of Intent section on the account application, or provide other relevant documentation, so that the transfer agent can verify your eligibility for the reduction or exception. Consult the fund's Statement of Additional Information for details.

REDUCED SALES CHARGES
You may be eligible to buy Class A shares at reduced initial sales charge rates under Rights of Accumulation or Letters of Intent under certain circumstances.
Purchases of Class A shares of AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Class A3 shares of AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund, AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund and Class B and Class C shares of AIM Floating Rate Fund and Investor Class shares of any fund will not be taken into account in determining whether a purchase qualifies for a reduction in initial sales charges pursuant to Rights of Accumulation or Letters of Intent.

RIGHTS OF ACCUMULATION
You may combine your new purchases of Class A shares of a fund with fund shares currently owned (Class A, B, C, or R) and investments in the AIM College Savings Plan/SM/ for the purpose of qualifying for the lower initial sales charge rates that apply to larger purchases. The applicable initial sales charge for the new purchase is based on the total of your current purchase and the public offering price of all other shares you own. The transfer agent may automatically link certain accounts registered in the same name, with the same taxpayer identification number, for the purpose of qualifying you for lower initial sales charge rates.

MCF--10/05 A-3


THE AIM FUNDS

LETTERS OF INTENT
Under a Letter of Intent (LOI), you commit to purchase a specified dollar amount of Class A shares of the funds during a 13-month period. The amount you agree to purchase determines the initial sales charge you pay. If the full face amount of the LOI is not invested by the end of the 13-month period, your account will be adjusted to the higher initial sales charge level for the amount actually invested.

INITIAL SALES CHARGE EXCEPTIONS
You will not pay initial sales charges

. on shares purchased by reinvesting dividends and distributions;

. when exchanging shares among certain funds; and

. when a merger, consolidation, or acquisition of assets of a fund occurs.

CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE (CDSC) EXCEPTIONS
You will not pay a CDSC

. if you redeem Class B shares you held for more than six years;

. if you redeem Class C shares you held for more than one year;

. if you redeem Class C shares of a fund other than AIM Short Term Bond Fund and you received such Class C shares by exchanging Class C shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund;

. if you redeem Class C shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund unless you received such Class C shares by exchanging Class C shares of another fund and the original purchase was subject to a CDSC;

. if you are a participant in a retirement plan and your plan redeems, at any time, less than all of the Class A, C, or Class R shares held through such plan that would otherwise be subject to a CDSC;

. if you are a participant in a retirement plan and your plan redeems, after having held them for more than one year from the date of the plan's initial purchase, all of the Class A, C, or Class R shares held through such plan that would otherwise be subject to a CDSC;

. if you are a participant in a qualified retirement plan and redeem Class A, Class C, or Class R shares in order to fund a distribution;

. if you participate in the Systematic Redemption Plan and withdraw up to 12% of the value of your shares that are subject to a CDSC in any twelve-month period;

. if you redeem shares to pay account fees;

. for redemptions following the death or post-purchase disability of a shareholder or beneficial owner;

. if you redeem shares acquired through reinvestment of dividends and distributions; and

. on increases in the net asset value of your shares.

There may be other situations when you may be able to purchase or redeem shares at reduced or without sales charges. Consult the fund's Statement of Additional Information for details.

ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS TO FINANCIAL ADVISORS
The financial advisor through which you purchase your shares may receive all or a portion of the sales charges and Rule 12b-1 distribution fees discussed above. In addition to those payments, ADI or one or more of its corporate affiliates (collectively, ADI Affiliates) may make additional cash payments to financial advisors in connection with the promotion and sale of shares of the funds. These additional cash payments may include cash revenue sharing payments and other payments for certain administrative services, transaction processing services and certain other marketing support services. ADI Affiliates make these payments from their own resources, from ADI's retention of underwriting concessions and from payments to ADI under Rule 12b-1 plans. In this context, "financial advisors" include any broker, dealer, bank (including bank trust departments), registered investment advisor, financial planner, retirement plan administrator and any other financial intermediary having a selling, administration or similar agreement with ADI Affiliates.
ADI Affiliates make revenue sharing payments as incentives to certain financial advisors to promote and sell shares of the funds. The benefits ADI Affiliates receive when they make these payments include, among other things, placing the funds on the financial advisor's funds sales system, placing the funds on the financial advisor's preferred or recommended fund list, and access (in some cases on a preferential basis over other competitors) to individual members of the financial advisor's sales force or to the financial advisor's management. Revenue sharing payments are sometimes referred to as "shelf space" payments because the payments compensate the financial advisor for including the funds in its fund sales system (on its "sales shelf"). ADI Affiliates compensate financial advisors differently depending typically on the level and/or type of considerations provided by the financial advisor. The revenue sharing payments ADI Affiliates make may be calculated on sales of shares of the funds (Sales-Based Payments), in which case the total amount of such payments shall not exceed 0.25% of the public offering price of all shares sold by the financial advisor during the particular period. Such payments also may be calculated on the average daily net assets of the applicable AIM funds attributable to that particular financial advisor (Asset-Based Payments), in which case the total amount of such cash payments shall not exceed 0.25% per annum of those assets during a defined period. Sales-Based Payments primarily create incentives to make new sales of shares of the funds and Asset-Based Payments primarily create incentives to retain previously sold shares of the funds in investor accounts. ADI Affiliates may pay a financial advisor either or both Sales-Based Payments and Asset-Based Payments.
ADI Affiliates also may make other payments to certain financial advisors for processing certain transactions or account maintenance activities (such as processing purchases, redemptions or exchanges or producing customer account statements) or for providing certain other marketing support services (such as financial assistance for conferences, seminars or sales or training programs at which ADI Affiliates personnel may make presentations on the funds to the financial advisor's sales force). Financial advisors may earn profits on

A-4 MCF--10/05


THE AIM FUNDS

these payments for these services, since the amount of the payment may exceed the cost of providing the service. Certain of these payments are subject to limitations under applicable law.
ADI Affiliates are motivated to make the payments described above since they promote the sale of fund shares and the retention of those investments by clients of financial advisors. To the extent financial advisors sell more shares of the funds or retain shares of the funds in their clients' accounts, ADI Affiliates benefit from the incremental management and other fees paid to ADI Affiliates by the funds with respect to those assets.
You can find further details in the fund's Statement of Additional Information about these payments and the services provided by financial advisors. In certain cases these payments could be significant to the financial advisor. Your financial advisor may charge you additional fees or commissions other than those disclosed in this prospectus. You can ask your financial advisor about any payments it receives from ADI Affiliates or the funds, as well as about fees and/or commissions it charges.

EXCESSIVE SHORT-TERM TRADING ACTIVITY DISCLOSURES
While the funds provide their shareholders with daily liquidity, their investment programs are designed to serve long-term investors and are not designed to accommodate excessive short-term trading activity in violation of our policies described below. Excessive short-term trading activity in the funds' shares (i.e., a purchase of fund shares followed shortly thereafter by a redemption of such shares, or vice versa) may hurt the long-term performance of certain funds by requiring them to maintain an excessive amount of cash or to liquidate portfolio holdings at a disadvantageous time, thus interfering with the efficient management of such funds by causing them to incur increased brokerage and administrative costs. Where excessive short-term trading activity seeks to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities from stale prices for portfolio securities, the value of fund shares held by long-term investors may be diluted. The Boards of Trustees have adopted policies and procedures designed to discourage excessive or short-term trading of fund shares for all funds except the money market funds. However, there is the risk that these funds' policies and procedures will prove ineffective in whole or in part to detect or prevent excessive or short-term trading. These funds may alter their policies at any time without prior notice to shareholders if the advisor believes the change would be in the best interests of long-term shareholders.
AIM and its affiliates (collectively, AIM Affiliates) currently use the following tools designed to discourage excessive short-term trading in the retail funds:

(1) trade activity monitoring;

(2) trading guidelines;

(3) redemption fee on trades in certain funds; and

(4) use of fair value pricing consistent with procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees of the funds.

Each of these tools is described in more detail below. Although these tools are designed to discourage excessive short-term trading, you should understand that none of these tools alone nor all of them taken together eliminate the possibility that excessive short-term trading activity in the funds will occur. Moreover, each of these tools involves judgments that are inherently subjective. The AIM Affiliates seek to make these judgments to the best of their abilities in a manner that they believe is consistent with long-term shareholder interests.
The Boards of Trustees of AIM Money Market Fund, AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio (the money market funds) have not adopted any policies and procedures that would limit frequent purchases and redemptions of such funds' shares. The Boards do not believe that it is appropriate to adopt any such policies and procedures for the money market funds for the following reasons:

. The money market funds are offered to investors as cash management vehicles. Investors must perceive an investment in such funds as an alternative to cash, and must be able to purchase and redeem shares regularly and frequently.

. One of the advantages of a money market fund as compared to other investment options is liquidity. Any policy that diminishes the liquidity of the money market funds will be detrimental to the continuing operations of such funds.

. The money market funds' portfolio securities are valued on the basis of amortized cost, and such funds seeks to maintain a constant net asset value. As a result, there are no price arbitrage opportunities.

. Because the money market funds seek to maintain a constant net asset value, investors expect to receive upon redemption the amount they originally invested in such funds. Imposition of redemption fees would run contrary to investor expectations.

The Boards considered the risks of not having a specific policy that limits frequent purchases and redemptions, and it determined that those risks are minimal, especially in light of the reasons for not having such a policy as described above. Nonetheless, to the extent that the fund must maintain additional cash and/or securities with short-term durations than may otherwise be required, the fund's yield could be negatively impacted.

TRADE ACTIVITY MONITORING
The AIM Affiliates monitor selected trades on a daily basis in an effort to detect excessive short-term trading activities. If, as a result of this monitoring, the AIM Affiliates believe that a shareholder has engaged in excessive short-term trading, they will seek to act in a manner that they believe is consistent with the best interests of long-term investors, which may include taking steps such as (i) asking the shareholder to take action to stop such activities or (ii) refusing to process future purchases or exchanges related to such activities in the shareholder's accounts other than exchanges into a money market fund. AIM Affiliates will use reasonable efforts to apply the fund's policies uniformly given the practical limitations described above.

MCF--10/05 A-5


THE AIM FUNDS

The ability of the AIM Affiliates to monitor trades that are placed by the underlying shareholders of omnibus accounts maintained by brokers, retirement plan accounts and approved fee-based program accounts is severely limited or non-existent in those instances in which the broker, retirement plan administrator or fee-based program sponsor maintains the underlying shareholder accounts. This is one reason why this tool cannot eliminate the possibility of excessive short-term trading.

TRADING GUIDELINES
If you exceed four exchanges out of a fund (other than AIM Money Market Fund, AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio) per calendar year, or a fund or an AIM Affiliate determines, in its sole discretion, that your short-term trading activity is excessive (regardless of whether or not you exceed such guidelines), it may, in its discretion, reject any additional purchase and exchange orders. Each fund and the AIM Affiliates reserve the discretion to accept exchanges in excess of these guidelines on a case-by-case basis if they believe that granting such exceptions would be consistent with the best interests of shareholders. An exchange is the purchase of shares in one fund which is paid for with the proceeds from a redemption of shares of another fund effectuated on the same day. The movement out of one fund (redemption) and into one or more other funds (purchase) on the same day shall be counted as one exchange. Exchanges effected as part of programs that have been determined by an AIM Affiliate to be non-discretionary, such as dollar cost averaging, portfolio rebalancing, or other automatic non-discretionary programs that involve exchanges, generally will not be counted toward the trading guidelines limitation of four exchanges out of a fund per calendar year.
The ability of the AIM Affiliates to monitor exchanges made by the underlying shareholders of omnibus accounts maintained by brokers, retirement plan accounts and approved fee-based program accounts is severely limited or non-existent in those instances in which the broker, retirement plan administrator or fee-based program sponsor maintains the underlying shareholder accounts and is unwilling or unable to implement these trading guidelines and may be further limited by systems limitations applicable to those types of accounts.
Some investments in the funds are made indirectly through vehicles such as qualified tuition plans, variable annuity and insurance contracts, and funds of funds which use the funds as underlying investments (each a conduit investment vehicle). If shares of the funds are held in the name of a conduit investment vehicle and not in the names of the individual investors who have invested in the funds through the conduit investment vehicle, the conduit investment vehicle may be considered an individual shareholder of the funds. To the extent that a conduit investment vehicle is considered an individual shareholder of the funds, the funds are likely to be limited in their ability to impose exchange limitations on individual transactions initiated by investors who have invested in the funds through the conduit investment vehicle.

REDEMPTION FEE
You may be charged a 2% redemption fee if you redeem, including redeeming by exchange, shares of certain funds within 30 days of purchase. See "Redeeming Shares -- Redemption Fee" for more information.
The ability of a fund to assess a redemption fee on the underlying shareholders of omnibus accounts maintained by brokers, retirement plan accounts and approved fee-based program accounts is severely limited or non-existent in those instances in which the broker, retirement plan administrator or fee-based program sponsor maintains the underlying shareholder accounts and is unwilling or unable to assess such fees and may be further limited by systems limitations applicable to these types of accounts.
For additional discussion of the applicability of redemption fees on shares of the fund held through omnibus accounts, retirement plan accounts, approved fee-based program accounts and conduit investment vehicles, see "Redeeming Shares -- Redemption Fee".

FAIR VALUE PRICING
Securities owned by a fund are to be valued at current market value if market quotations are readily available. All other securities and assets of a fund for which market quotations are not readily available are to be valued at fair value determined in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees of the fund. Fair value pricing may reduce the ability of frequent traders to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities resulting from potentially "stale" prices of portfolio holdings. However, it cannot eliminate the possibility of frequent trading.
See "Pricing of Shares -- Determination of Net Asset Value" for more information.

THE AIM FUNDS

GRANDFATHERED INVESTORS
Investor Class shares of a fund may be purchased only by: (1) persons or entities who had established an account, prior to April 1, 2002, in Investor Class shares of any of the funds currently distributed by ADI (the Grandfathered Funds) and have continuously maintained such account in Investor Class shares since April 1, 2002; (2) any person or entity listed in the account registration for any Grandfathered Funds, which account was established prior to April 1, 2002 and continuously maintained since April 1, 2002, such as joint owners, trustees, custodians and designated beneficiaries; (3) customers of certain financial institutions, wrap accounts or other fee-based advisory programs, or insurance company separate accounts, which have had relationships with ADI and/or any of the Grandfathered Funds prior to April 1, 2002 and continuously maintained such relationships since April 1, 2002; (4) defined benefit, defined contribution and deferred compensation plans; and (5) fund trustees, employees of AMVESCAP PLC and its subsidiaries, AMVESCAP directors, and their immediate families.

SPECIAL PLANS

SYSTEMATIC PURCHASE PLAN
You can arrange for periodic investments in any of the funds by authorizing the transfer agent to withdraw the amount of your investment from your bank account on a day or dates you specify and in an amount of at least $50. You may stop the Systematic Purchase Plan at any time by giving the transfer agent notice ten days prior to your next scheduled withdrawal.

DOLLAR COST AVERAGING
Dollar Cost Averaging allows you to make automatic monthly or quarterly exchanges, if permitted, from one fund account to one or more other fund accounts with the identical registration. The account from which exchanges are to be made must have a minimum balance of $5,000 before you can use this option. Exchanges will occur on (or about) the day of the month you specify, in the amount you specify. Dollar Cost Averaging cannot be set up for the 29th through the 31st of the month. The minimum amount you can exchange to another fund is $50. You may participate in a dollar cost averaging program hosted by your dealer of record, your financial advisor or another financial intermediary. If such program is the same or similar to AIM's Dollar Cost Averaging program and is non-discretionary, both as determined by an AIM Affiliate, exchanges made pursuant to such program generally will not be counted toward the trading guideline limitation of four exchanges out of a fund per calendar year.

AUTOMATIC DIVIDEND INVESTMENT
All of your dividends and distributions may be paid in cash or invested in any fund at net asset value. Unless you specify otherwise, your dividends and distributions will automatically be reinvested in the same fund. You may invest your dividends and distributions per the rules listed in the "Permitted Exchanges" section.
You must comply with the following requirements to be eligible to invest your dividends and distributions in shares of another fund:

(1) Your account balance (a) in the fund paying the dividend must be at least $5,000; and (b) in the fund receiving the dividend must be at least $500; and

(2) Both accounts must have identical registration information.

PORTFOLIO REBALANCING PROGRAM
If you have at least $5,000 in your account, you may participate in the Portfolio Rebalancing Program. Under this Program, you can designate how the total value of your fund holdings should be rebalanced, on a percentage basis, between two and ten of your funds on a quarterly, semiannual or annual basis. Your portfolio will be rebalanced through the exchange of shares in one or more of your funds for shares of the same class of one or more other funds in your portfolio. Rebalancing will NOT occur if your portfolio is within 2% of your stated allocation. If you wish to participate in the Program, make changes or cancel the Program, the transfer agent must receive your request to participate, changes, or cancellation in good order at least five business days prior to the next rebalancing date, which is normally the 28th day of the last month of the period you choose. You may realize taxable gains from these exchanges. We may modify, suspend or terminate the Program at any time on 60 days prior written notice. You may participate in a portfolio rebalancing program hosted by your dealer of record, your financial advisor or another financial intermediary. If such program is the same or similar to AIM's Portfolio Rebalancing Program and is non-discretionary, both as determined by an AIM Affiliate, exchanges made pursuant to such program generally will not be counted toward the trading guideline limitation of four exchanges out of a fund per calendar year.

RETIREMENT PLANS
Shares of most of the funds can be purchased through tax-sheltered retirement plans made available to corporations, individuals and employees of non-profit organizations and public schools. A plan document must be adopted to establish a retirement plan. You may use AIM sponsored retirement plans, which include IRAs, Roth IRAs, SIMPLE IRA plans, SEP/SARSEP plans, 403(b) plans, Solo 401(k) plans and Money Purchase/Profit Sharing plans, or another sponsor's retirement plan. AIM Investment Services, Inc. assesses certain fees associated with the maintenance of certain types of retirement plan accounts and the provision of specialized recordkeeping services for those plan accounts. ADI assesses certain fees associated with the maintenance of retirement plan documents for which it acts as the prototype sponsor. Contact your financial advisor for details.

REDEEMING SHARES

REDEMPTION FEE
You may be charged a 2% redemption fee (on redemption proceeds) if you redeem, including redeeming by exchange, shares of the following funds within 30 days of their purchase:

AIM Asia Pacific Growth
Fund                       AIM Global Value Fund
AIM Developing Markets
Fund                       AIM High Yield Fund
AIM European Growth Fund   AIM International Core
                           Equity Fund
                           AIM International Growth
AIM European Small Company Fund
Fund
AIM Global Aggressive      AIM International Small
Growth Fund                Company Fund
AIM Global Equity Fund     AIM S&P 500 Index Fund
AIM Global Growth Fund     AIM Trimark Fund
AIM Global Real Estate
Fund

The redemption fee will be retained by the fund from which you are redeeming shares (including redemptions by exchange), and is intended to offset the trading costs, market impact and other costs associated with short-term money movements in and out of the fund. The redemption fee is imposed to the extent that the number of fund shares you redeem exceeds the number of fund shares that you have held for more than 30 days. In determining whether the minimum 30 day holding period has been met, only the period during which you have held shares of the fund from which you are redeeming is counted. For this purpose, shares held longest will be treated as being redeemed first and shares held shortest as being redeemed last.
The 2% redemption fee generally will not be charged on transactions involving the following:

(1) total or partial redemptions of shares by omnibus accounts maintained by brokers that do not have the systematic capability to process the redemption fee;

(2) total or partial redemptions of shares by approved fee-based programs that do not have the systematic capability to process the redemption fee;

(3) total or partial redemptions of shares held through retirement plans maintained pursuant to Sections 401, 403, 408, 408A and 457 of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) where the systematic capability to process the redemption fee does not exist;

(4) total or partial redemptions effectuated by funds of funds, qualified tuition plans maintained pursuant to Section 529 of the Code, and insurance company separate accounts which use the funds as underlying investments;

(5) total or partial redemptions effectuated pursuant to an automatic non-discretionary rebalancing program or a systematic withdrawal plan established with the funds or a financial intermediary;

(6) total or partial redemptions requested within 30 days following the death or post-purchase disability of (i) any registered shareholder on an account or (ii) the settlor of a living trust which is the registered shareholder of an account, of shares held in the account at the time of death or initial determination of post-purchase disability;

(7) total or partial redemption of shares acquired through investment of dividends and other distributions; or

(8) redemptions initiated by a fund.

The AIM Affiliates' goals are to apply the redemption fee on all classes of shares of the above funds regardless of the type of account in which such shares are held. This goal is not immediately achievable because of systems limitations and marketplace resistance. Brokers that maintain omnibus accounts, sponsors of fee-based program accounts and retirement plan administrators for accounts that are exempt from the redemption fee pursuant to (1) through (8) above may impose a redemption fee that has different characteristics, which may be more or less restrictive, than those set forth above.
Some investments in the funds are made indirectly through conduit investment vehicles. If shares of the funds are held in the name of a conduit investment vehicle and not in the names of the individual investors who have invested in the funds through the conduit investment vehicle, the conduit investment vehicle may be considered an individual shareholder of the funds. To the extent that a conduit investment vehicle is considered an individual shareholder of the funds, the funds are likely to be limited in their ability to assess redemption fees on individual transactions initiated by investors who have invested in the funds through the conduit investment vehicle. In these cases, the applicability of redemption fees will be determined based on the aggregate holdings and redemptions of the conduit investment vehicle in a fund.
The funds have the discretion to waive the 2% redemption fee if a fund is in jeopardy of losing its registered investment company qualification for tax purposes.
Your broker or financial advisor may charge service fees for handling redemption transactions. Your shares also may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) in addition to the redemption fee.

TIMING AND METHOD OF PAYMENT
We normally will send out checks within one business day, and in any event no more than seven days, after we accept your request to redeem. If you redeem shares recently purchased by check, you will be required to wait up to ten business days before we will send your redemption proceeds. This delay is necessary to ensure that the purchase check has cleared. Payment may be postponed in cases where the SEC declares an emergency or normal trading is halted.

REDEMPTION BY MAIL
If you mail us a request in good order to redeem your shares, we will mail you a check in the amount of the redemption proceeds to the address on record with us. If your request is not in good order, you may have to provide us with additional documentation in order to redeem your shares.

REDEMPTION BY TELEPHONE
If you redeem by telephone, we will mail you a check in the amount of the redemption proceeds to your address of record (if there has been no change communicated to the transfer agent within the previous 30 days) or transmit them electronically to your pre-authorized bank account. We use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine, but we are not liable for telephone instructions that are reasonably believed to be genuine.

REDEMPTION BY INTERNET
If you redeem by internet, we will transmit your redemption proceeds electronically to your pre-authorized bank account. We use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by internet are genuine, but we are not liable for internet instructions that are reasonably believed to be genuine.

PAYMENT FOR SYSTEMATIC REDEMPTIONS
You may arrange for regular monthly or quarterly withdrawals from your account of at least $50. You also may make annual withdrawals if you own Class A shares. We will redeem enough shares from your account to cover the amount withdrawn. You must have an account balance of at least $5,000 to establish a Systematic Redemption Plan. You can stop this plan at any time by giving ten days prior notice to the transfer agent.

If we receive your redemption order before 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time, we will try to transmit payment of redemption proceeds on that same day. If we receive your redemption order after 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time and before the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE, we generally will transmit payment on the next business day.

REDEMPTIONS BY CHECK

(CLASS A SHARES OF AIM TAX-EXEMPT CASH FUND, AIM CASH RESERVE SHARES OF AIM MONEY MARKET FUND AND INVESTOR CLASS SHARES OF AIM MONEY MARKET FUND, AIM TAX-EXEMPT CASH FUND, PREMIER PORTFOLIO, PREMIER TAX-EXEMPT PORTFOLIO AND PREMIER U.S. GOVERNMENT MONEY PORTFOLIO ONLY) You may redeem shares of these funds by writing checks in amounts of $250 or more if you have completed an authorization form. Redemption by check is not available for retirement accounts.

SIGNATURE GUARANTEES
We require a signature guarantee when you redeem by mail and

(1) the amount is greater than $250,000;

(2) you request that payment be made to someone other than the name registered on the account;

(3) you request that payment be sent somewhere other than the bank of record on the account; or

(4) you request that payment be sent to a new address or an address that changed in the last 30 days.

The transfer agent will accept a guarantee of your signature by a number of financial institutions. Call the transfer agent for additional information. Some institutions have transaction amount maximums for these guarantees. Please check with the guarantor institution.

REDEMPTIONS IN KIND
Although the funds generally intend to pay redemption proceeds solely in cash, the funds reserve the right to determine, in their sole discretion, whether to satisfy redemption requests by making payment in securities or other property (known as a redemption in kind).

REDEMPTIONS BY THE FUNDS
If your account (Class A, Class A3, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares only) has been open at least one year, you have not made an additional purchase in the account during the past six calendar months, and the value of your account falls below $500 ($250 for Investor Class shares) for three consecutive months due to redemptions or exchanges (excluding retirement accounts), the funds have the right to redeem the account after giving you 60 days' prior written notice. You may avoid having your account redeemed during the notice period by bringing the account value up to $500 ($250 for Investor Class shares) or by utilizing the Automatic Investment Plan.
If the fund determines that you have not provided a correct Social Security or other tax ID number on your account application, or the fund is not able to verify your identity as required by law, the fund may, at its discretion, redeem the account and distribute the proceeds to you.

EXCHANGING SHARES
You may, under certain circumstances, exchange shares in one fund for those of another fund. An exchange is the purchase of shares in one fund which is paid for with the proceeds from a redemption of shares of another fund effectuated on the same day. Before requesting an exchange, review the prospectus of the fund you wish to acquire. Exchange privileges also apply to holders of the Connecticut General Guaranteed Account, established for tax-qualified group annuities, for contracts purchased on or before June 30, 1992.
You may be charged a redemption fee on certain redemptions, including exchanges. See "Redeeming Shares -- Redemption Fee."

(3) AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund or Class A shares of AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund for

(3) AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund for Class B or Class C shares of any fund or for Class A shares of any fund that are subject to a CDSC, however, if you originally purchased Class A shares of a Category I or II fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund, and exchanged those shares for AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund, you may further exchange the AIM Cash Reserve Shares for Class A shares of a Category I or II fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund.

EXCHANGE CONDITIONS

MCF--10/05 A-13


THE AIM FUNDS

TERMS OF EXCHANGE
Under unusual market conditions, a fund may delay the purchase of shares being acquired in an exchange for up to five business days if it determines that it would be materially disadvantaged by the immediate transfer of exchange proceeds. The exchange privilege is not an option or right to purchase shares. Any of the participating funds or the distributor may modify or terminate this privilege at any time. The fund or the distributor will provide you with notice of such modification or termination whenever it is required to do so by applicable law, but may impose changes at any time for emergency purposes.

BY MAIL
If you wish to make an exchange by mail, you must include original signatures of each registered owner exactly as the shares are registered, the account registration and account number, the dollar amount or number of shares to be exchanged and the names of the funds from which and into which the exchange is to be made.

BY TELEPHONE
Conditions that apply to exchanges by telephone are the same as redemptions by telephone, including that the transfer agent must receive exchange requests during the hours of the customary trading session of the NYSE; however, you still will be allowed to exchange by telephone even if you have changed your address of record within the preceding 30 days.

BY INTERNET
You will be allowed to exchange by internet if you do not hold physical share certificates and you provide the proper identification information.

EXCHANGING CLASS B, CLASS C AND CLASS R SHARES
If you make an exchange involving Class B or Class C shares or Class R shares subject to a CDSC, the amount of time you held the original shares will be credited to the holding period of the Class B, Class C or Class R shares, respectively, into which you exchanged for the purpose of calculating contingent deferred sales charges (CDSC) if you later redeem the exchanged shares. If you redeem Class B or Class C shares acquired by exchange via a tender offer by AIM Floating Rate Fund, you will be credited with the time period you held the Class B or Class C shares of AIM Floating Rate Fund for the purpose of computing the early withdrawal charge applicable to those shares.

Each fund and its agents reserve the right at any time to:
. reject or cancel all or any part of any purchase or exchange order;
. modify any terms or conditions of purchase of shares of any fund;
. reject or cancel any request to establish the Systematic Purchase Plan and Systematic Redemption Plan options on the same account; or
. suspend, change or withdraw all or any part of the offering made by this prospectus.

PRICING OF SHARES

DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE
The price of each fund's shares is the fund's net asset value per share. The funds value portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available at market value. The funds value all other securities and assets for which market quotations unavailable or unreliable at their fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees of the funds. Securities and other assets quoted in foreign currencies are valued in U.S. dollars based on the prevailing exchange rates on that day.
Even when market quotations are available, they may be stale or they may be unreliable because the security is not traded frequently, trading on the security ceased before the close of the trading market or issuer specific events occurred after the security ceased trading or because of the passage of time between the close of the market on which the security trades and the close of the NYSE and when the fund calculates its net asset value. Issuer specific events may cause the last market quotation to be unreliable. Such events may include a merger or insolvency, events which affect a geographical area or an industry segment, such as political events or natural disasters, or market events, such as a significant movement in the U.S. market. Where market quotations are not readily available, including where AIM determines that the closing price of the security is unreliable, AIM will value the security at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees. Fair value pricing may reduce the ability of frequent traders to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities resulting from potentially "stale" prices of portfolio holdings. However, it cannot eliminate the possibility of frequent trading.
Fair value is that amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale. Fair value requires consideration of all appropriate factors, including indications of fair value available from pricing services. A fair value price is an estimated price and may vary from the prices used by other mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.
AIM may use indications of fair value from pricing services approved by the Boards of Trustees. In other circumstances, the AIM valuation committee may fair value securities in good faith using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees. As a means of evaluating its fair value process, AIM routinely compares closing market prices, the next day's opening prices for the security in its primary market if available, and indications of fair value from other sources. Fair value pricing methods and pricing services can change from time to time as approved by the Boards of Trustees.
Specific types of securities are valued as follows:
Domestic Exchange Traded Equity Securities: Market quotations are generally available and reliable for domestic exchange traded equity securities. If market quotations are not available or are unreliable, AIM will value the security at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees.
Foreign Securities: If market quotations are available and reliable for foreign exchange traded equity securities, the securities will be valued at the market quotations. Because trading hours for certain

A-14 MCF--10/05


THE AIM FUNDS

foreign securities end before the close of the NYSE, closing market quotations may become unreliable. If between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of the customary trading session on the NYSE events occur that are significant and may make the closing price unreliable, the fund may fair value the security. If an issuer specific event has occurred that AIM determines, in its judgment, is likely to have affected the closing price of a foreign security, it will price the security at fair value. AIM also relies on a screening process from a pricing vendor to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. For foreign securities where AIM believes, at the approved degree of certainty, that the price is not reflective of current market value, AIM will use the indication of fair value from the pricing service to determine the fair value of the security. The pricing vendor, pricing methodology or degree of certainty may change from time to time.
Fund securities primarily traded on foreign markets may trade on days that are not business days of the fund. Because the net asset value of fund shares is determined only on business days of the fund, the value of the portfolio securities of a fund that invests in foreign securities may change on days when you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of the fund.
Fixed Income Securities: Government, corporate, asset-backed and municipal bonds and convertible securities, including high yield or junk bonds, normally are valued on the basis of prices provided by independent pricing services. Prices provided by the pricing services may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to special securities, dividend rate, maturity and other market data. Prices received from pricing services are fair value prices. In addition, if the price provided by the pricing service and independent quoted prices are unreliable, the AIM valuation committee will fair value the security using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees.
Short-term Securities: The funds' short-term investments are valued at amortized cost when the security has 60 days or less to maturity. AIM Money Market Fund, AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio value all their securities at amortized cost. AIM High Income Municipal Fund, AIM Municipal Bond Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund value variable rate securities that have an unconditional demand or put feature exercisable within seven days or less at par, which reflects the market value of such securities.
Futures and Options: Futures and options are valued on the basis of market quotations, if available.
Open-end Funds: To the extent a fund invests in other open-end funds, the investing fund will calculate its net asset value using the net asset value of the underlying fund in which it invests.
Each fund determines the net asset value of its shares on each day the NYSE is open for business (a business day), as of the close of the customary trading session, or earlier NYSE closing time that day. AIM Money Market Fund also determines its net asset value as of 12:00 noon Eastern Time on each business day. Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio determine the net asset value of their shares every fifteen minutes on each business day, beginning at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The last net asset value determination on any business day for Premier Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio will generally occur at 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time, and the last net asset value determination on any business day for Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio will generally occur at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio are authorized not to open for trading on a day that is otherwise a business day if the Bond Market Association recommends that government securities dealers not open for trading and any such day will not be considered a business day. Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio also may close early on a business day if the Bond Market Association recommends that government securities dealers close early. If Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio or Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio uses its discretion to close early on a business day, the last net asset value calculation will occur as of the time of such closing.

TIMING OF ORDERS
For funds other than Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, you can purchase or redeem shares on each business day prior to the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time that day. For funds other than Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, purchase orders that are received and accepted before the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time on a business day generally are processed that day and settled on the next business day.
For Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, you can purchase or redeem shares on each business day, prior to the last net asset value determination on such business day; however, if your order is received and accepted after the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time that day, your order generally will be processed on the next business day and settled on the second business day following the receipt and acceptance of your order.
For all funds, you can exchange shares on each business day, prior to the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time that day. Shareholders of Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio therefore cannot exchange their shares after the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time on a particular day, even though these funds remain open after such closing time.
The funds price purchase, exchange and redemption orders at the net asset value calculated after the transfer agent receives an order in good order. Any applicable sales charges are applied at the time an order is processed. A fund may postpone the right of redemption only under unusual circumstances, as allowed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as when the NYSE restricts or suspends trading.

THE AIM FUNDS

TAXES
In general, dividends and distributions you receive are taxable as ordinary income or long-term capital gains for federal income tax purposes, whether you reinvest them in additional shares or take them in cash. Distributions are generally taxable to you at different rates depending on the length of time the fund holds its assets and the type of income that the fund earns. Different tax rates apply to ordinary income, qualified dividend income, and long-term capital gain distributions. Every year, you will be sent information showing the amount of dividends and distributions you received from each fund during the prior year.
Any long-term or short-term capital gains realized from redemptions of fund shares will be subject to federal income tax. Exchanges of shares for shares of another fund are treated as a sale, and any gain realized on the transaction will generally be subject to federal income tax.

INVESTORS IN TAX-EXEMPT FUNDS SHOULD READ THE INFORMATION UNDER THE HEADING "OTHER INFORMATION -- SPECIAL TAX INFORMATION REGARDING THE FUND" IN THEIR PROSPECTUS.
The foreign, state and local tax consequences of investing in fund shares may differ materially from the federal income tax consequences described above. In addition, the preceding discussion concerning the taxability of fund dividends and distributions and of redemptions and exchanges of fund shares is inapplicable to investors that are generally exempt from federal income tax, such as retirement plans that are qualified under Section 401, 403, 408, 408A and 457 of the Internal Revenue Code, individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and Roth IRAs. You should consult your tax advisor before investing.

INVESTMENT GOALS, STRATEGIES, AND RISKS

FOR MORE DETAILS ABOUT  The fund seeks capital growth and income. It is
THE FUND'S CURRENT IN-  actively managed. The fund invests primarily in
VESTMENTS AND MARKET    equity securities that the advisor believes will

OUTLOOK, PLEASE SEE THE rise in price faster than other securities, as MOST RECENT ANNUAL OR well as options and other investments whose SEMIANNUAL REPORT. values are based upon the values of equity securities.

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets in the equity securities and equity-related instru-ments of companies engaged in utilities-related industries. These include, but are not limited to, compa-nies that produce, generate, transmit, or distribute natural gas or electricity, as well as companies that provide telecommunications services, including local, long distance and wireless. At any given time, 20%

of the fund's assets are not required to be invested in the sector. To determine whether a potential investment is truly doing business in the utilities sector, a company must meet at least one of the following tests:
. At least 50% of its gross income or its net sales must come from activities in the utilities sector;
. At least 50% of its assets must be devoted to producing revenues from the utilities sector; or
. Based on other available information, we determine that its primary business is within the utilities sector.

The fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in securities of non-U.S. issuers. Securities of Canadian issuers and American Depository Receipts are not subject to this 25% limitation.

The advisor uses a research-oriented "bottom-up" investment approach to create the fund's investment portfolio, focusing on company fundamentals and growth prospects when selecting securities. In general, the fund emphasizes strongly managed companies that the advisor believes will generate above-average long-term capital appreciation.

Governmental regulation, difficulties in obtaining adequate financing and investment return, environmental issues, prices of fuel for generation of electricity, availability of natural gas, risks associated with power marketing and trading, and risks associated with nuclear power facilities may adversely affect the market value of the fund's holdings. The recent trend towards deregulation in the utility industries presents special risks. Some companies may be faced with increased competition and may become less profitable.

Normally, the advisor seeks to keep the portfolio divided among the electric utilities, natural gas, and telecommunications industries. Weightings within the various industry segments are continually monitored, and we adjust the portfolio weightings depending on the prevailing economic conditions.

Growth investing may be more volatile than other investment styles because growth stocks are more sensitive to investor perceptions of an issuing company's growth potential. Growth-oriented funds typically will underperform value-oriented funds when investor sentiment favors the value investing style.

As a sector fund, the portfolio is concentrated in a comparatively narrow segment of the economy. This means the fund's investment concentration in a sector is higher than most mutual funds and the broad securities markets. Consequently, the fund tends to be more volatile than other mutual funds and the value of the portfolio investments and consequently an investment in the fund tend to go up and down more rapidly.

Other principal risks involved in investing in the fund are market, foreign securities, liquidity, derivatives, counterparty, and lack of timely information risks. These risks are described and discussed later in the Prospectus under the headings "Investment Risks" and "Principal Risks Associated With The Fund." An investment in the fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. As with any other mutual fund, there is always a risk that you may lose money on your investment in the fund.

FUND PERFORMANCE [GRAPHIC]

Performance information in the bar chart below is that of the fund's Investor Class shares which has the longest operating history of the Fund's classes. Information included in the table is that of Investor Class shares. The returns reflected in the bar chart reflect only the applicable total expenses of the Investor Class. If the effect of the Institutional Class' total expenses were reflected, the returns would be higher than those shown because the Institutional Class has lower total expenses.

The bar chart below shows the fund's Investor Class shares' actual yearly performance (commonly known as its "total return") for the years ended December 31 over the previous ten year period. The table below shows pre-tax and after-tax average annual total returns for various periods ended December 31, 2004 compared to the S&P 500 Index and Lipper Utility Fund Index.

After-tax returns are provided on a pre-redemption and post-redemption basis. Pre-redemption returns assume you continue to hold your shares and pay taxes on fund distributions (i.e., dividends and capital gains) but do not reflect taxes that may be incurred upon selling or exchanging shares. Post-redemption returns assume payment of taxes on fund distributions and also that you close your account and pay remaining federal taxes. After-tax returns are calculated using the highest individual federal marginal income tax rates in effect at the time the distribution is paid. State and local taxes are not considered. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown. For investors holding their shares in tax-deferred arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts, the after-tax returns shown are not relevant.

The information in the bar chart illustrates the variability of the fund's Investor Class shares' total return by showing changes in the fund's performance year to year. The information in the table illustrates the variability of the fund's Investor Class shares' total return compared to a broad-based securities market index and a peer group index. The indices may not reflect payment of fees, expenses or taxes. The fund is not managed to track the performance of any particular index, including the indices shown below, and consequently, the performance of the fund may deviate significantly from the performance of the indices shown below. Remember, past performance (before and after taxes) does not indicate how a fund will perform in the future.

FEE TABLE AND EXPENSE EXAMPLE

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold Institutional Class shares of the fund.

SHAREHOLDER FEES PAID DIRECTLY FROM YOUR ACCOUNT

You pay no fees to purchase Institutional Class shares of the fund, to exchange to another AIM Fund, or to sell your shares. Accordingly, no fees are paid directly from your shareholder account.

ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES THAT ARE DEDUCTED FROM FUND ASSETS/1/

AIM UTILITIES FUND -- INSTITUTIONAL CLASS

/1/ There is no guarantee that actual expenses will be the same as those shown in the table.

/2/ Other expenses are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. /3/ The advisor has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) to 2.15% on Institutional Class shares. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses to exceed the caps stated above: (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expense on short sales; (iv) extraordinary items (these are expenses that are not anticipated to arise from the fund's day-to-day operations), or items designated as such by the fund's Board of Trustees;
(v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the fund's Board of Trustees; and (vi) expenses that the fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Currently, the only expense offset arrangements from which the fund benefits are in the form of credits that the fund receives from banks where the fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. Those credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by the fund. This expense limitation agreement is in effect through March 31, 2006.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

This example is intended to help you compare the costs of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods indicated and then redeemed all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year, that the fund's operating expenses remain the same and includes the effect of any contractual fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any. To the extent fees are waived and/or expenses are reimbursed voluntarily, your expenses will be lower. Although your actual returns and costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

1 YEAR                   3 YEARS                   5 YEARS                   10 YEARS
 $96                       $300                      $520                     $1,155

HYPOTHETICAL INVESTMENT AND EXPENSE INFORMATION

The following supplemental hypothetical investment information provides additional information in a different format from the preceding Fee Table and Expense Example about the effect of the fund's expenses, including investment advisory fees and other fund costs, on the fund's return over a 10-year period. Because the fund's annual return when quoted is already reduced by the fund's fees and expenses for that year, this hypothetical expense information is intended to help you understand the annual and cumulative impact of the fund's fees and expenses on your investment. Assuming a hypothetical investment of $10,000 in the Institutional Class shares of the fund and a 5% return before expenses each year, the chart shows the cumulative return before expenses, the cumulative return after expenses, the ending balance and the estimated annual expenses for each year one through ten. The chart also assumes that the current annual expense ratio stays the same throughout the 10-year period. The current annual expense ratio for the Institutional Class, which is the same as stated in the Fee Table above, is reflected in the chart and is net of any contractual fee waiver or expense reimbursement. There is no assurance that the annual expense ratio will be the expense ratio for the fund class. To the extent that the advisor makes any waivers or reimbursements pursuant to a voluntary arrangement, your actual expenses may be less. The chart does not take into account initial or contingent deferred sales charges, if any. You should understand that this is only a hypothetical presentation made to illustrate what expenses and returns would be under the above scenarios; your actual returns and expenses are likely to differ (higher or lower) from those shown below.

INVESTMENT RISKS [GRAPHIC]

BEFORE INVESTING IN THE You should determine the level of risk with which FUND, YOU SHOULD DE- you are comfortable before you invest. The TERMINE THE LEVEL OF principal risks of investing in any mutual fund, RISK WITH WHICH YOU ARE including the fund, are:
COMFORTABLE. TAKE INTO
ACCOUNT FACTORS LIKE NOT INSURED. Mutual funds are not insured by the YOUR AGE, CAREER, IN- FDIC or any other agency, unlike bank deposits COME AND TIME HORIZON. such as CDs or savings accounts.

NO GUARANTEE. No mutual fund can guarantee that it will meet its investment objectives.

POSSIBLE LOSS OF INVESTMENT. A mutual fund cannot guarantee its performance, nor assure you that the market value of your investment will increase. You may lose the money you invest, and the fund will not reimburse you for any of these losses.

VOLATILITY. The price of your mutual fund shares will increase or decrease with changes in the value of the fund's underlying investments and changes in the equity markets as a whole.

NOT A COMPLETE INVESTMENT PLAN. An investment in any mutual fund does not constitute a complete investment plan. The fund is designed to be only part of your personal investment plan.

[GRAPHIC]

PRINCIPAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUND

You should consider the special risk factors discussed below associated with the fund's policies in determining the appropriateness of investing in the fund. See the Statement of Additional Information for a discussion of additional risk factors.

MARKET RISK

Equity stock prices vary and may fall, thus reducing the value of the fund's investments. Certain stocks selected for the fund's portfolio may decline in value more than the overall stock market. In general, the securities of small companies are more volatile than those of mid-size companies or large companies.

FOREIGN SECURITIES RISKS

Investments in foreign and emerging markets carry special risks, including currency, political, regulatory, and diplomatic risks.

CURRENCY RISK. A change in the exchange rate between U.S. dollars and a foreign currency may reduce the value of the fund's investment in a security valued in the foreign currency, or based on that currency value.

POLITICAL RISK. Political actions, events, or instability may result in unfavorable changes in the value of a security.

REGULATORY RISK. Government regulations may affect the value of a security. In foreign countries, securities markets that are less regulated than those in the U.S. may permit trading practices that are not allowed in the U.S.

DIPLOMATIC RISK. A change in diplomatic relations between the U.S. and a foreign country could affect the value or liquidity of investments.

5

LIQUIDITY RISK

The fund's portfolio is liquid if the fund is able to sell the securities it owns at a fair price within a reasonable time. Liquidity is generally related to the market trading volume for a particular security. Investments in smaller companies or in foreign companies or companies in emerging markets are subject to a variety of risks, including potential lack of liquidity.

COUNTERPARTY RISK

This is a risk associated primarily with repurchase agreements and some derivatives transactions. It is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligation to complete the transaction with the fund.

LACK OF TIMELY INFORMATION RISK

Timely information about a security or its issuer may be unavailable, incomplete, or inaccurate. This risk is more common to securities issued by foreign companies and companies in emerging markets than it is to the securities of U.S.-based companies.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER RISK

A fund's investments may be bought and sold relatively frequently. A high turnover rate may affect a fund's performance because it results in higher brokerage commissions and may result in taxable gain distributions to a fund's shareholders.


Although the fund generally invests in equity securities of companies in the utilities sector, the fund also may invest in other types of securities and other financial instruments, indicated in the chart below. Although these investments typically are not part of the fund's principal investment strategy, they may constitute a significant portion of the fund's portfolio, thereby possibly exposing the fund and its investors to the following additional risks.

INVESTMENT                                                                              RISKS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AMERICAN DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS (ADRS)
These are securities issued by U.S. banks that represent shares of foreign corporations Market, Information, Political,
held by those banks. Although traded in U.S. securities markets and valued in U.S.      Regulatory, Diplomatic, Liquidity,
dollars, ADRs carry most of the risks of investing directly in foreign securities.      and Currency Risks
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
A contract under which the seller of a security agrees to buy it back at an agreed-upon Counterparty Risk
price and time in the future.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS [GRAPHIC]

When securities markets or economic conditions are unfavorable or unsettled, we might try to protect the assets of the fund by investing in securities that are highly liquid, such as high-quality money market instruments like short-term U.S. government obligations, commercial paper or repurchase agreements, even though that is not the normal investment strategy of the fund. We have the right to invest up to 100% of the fund's assets in these securities, although we are unlikely to do so. Even though the securities purchased for defensive purposes often are considered the equivalent of cash, they also have their own risks. Investments that are highly liquid or comparatively safe tend to offer lower returns. Therefore, the fund's performance could be comparatively lower if it concentrates in defensive holdings.

On October 8, 2004, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. (IFG) (the former investment advisor to certain AIM funds), AIM and A I M Distributors, Inc. (ADI) (the distributor of the retail AIM funds) reached final settlements with certain regulators, including the SEC, the New York Attorney General and the Colorado Attorney General, to resolve civil enforcement actions and/or investigations related to market timing and related activity in the AIM funds, including those formerly advised by IFG. As part of the settlements, a $325 million fair fund ($110 million of which is civil penalties) is being created to compensate shareholders harmed by market timing and related activity in funds formerly advised by IFG. Additionally, AIM and ADI agreed to create a $50 million fair fund ($30 million of which is civil penalties) to compensate shareholders harmed by market timing and related activity in funds advised by AIM. These two fair funds may increase as a result of contributions from third parties who reach final settlements with the SEC or other regulators to resolve allegations of market timing and/or late trading that also may have harmed applicable AIM funds. These two fair funds will be distributed in accordance with a methodology to be determined by AIM's independent distribution consultant, in consultation with AIM and the independent trustees of the AIM funds and acceptable to the staff of the SEC.

Civil lawsuits, including a regulatory proceeding and purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against certain of the AIM funds, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or related entities and individuals, depending on the lawsuit, alleging among other things: (i) that the defendants permitted improper market timing and related activity in the funds; (ii) that certain funds inadequately employed fair value pricing;
(iii) that the defendants charged excessive advisory and/or distribution fees and failed to pass on to shareholders the perceived savings generated by economies of scale and that the defendants adopted unlawful distribution plans; (iv) that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by charging distribution fees while funds and/or specific share classes were closed generally to new investors and/or while other share classes of the same fund were not charged the same distribution fees; (v) that the defendants improperly used the assets of the funds to pay brokers to aggressively promote the sale of the funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions; and (vi) that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the funds participated in class action settlements in which they were eligible to participate.

Additional civil lawsuits related to the above or other matters may be filed by regulators or private litigants against the AIM funds, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or related entities and individuals in the future. You can find more detailed information concerning all of the above matters, including the parties to the civil lawsuits and summaries of the various allegations and remedies sought in such lawsuits, in the fund's Statement of Additional Information.

As a result of the matters discussed above, investors in the AIM funds might react by redeeming their investments. This might require the funds to sell investments to provide for sufficient liquidity and could also have an adverse effect on the investment performance of the funds.

PORTFOLIO MANAGERS

The following individuals are jointly and primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the fund's portfolio:

JOHN S. SEGNER, Senior Portfolio Manager, who has been responsible for the fund since 2003 and has been associated with AIM and/or its affiliates since 1997.

Mr. Segner is assisted by the Utilities Team which may be comprised of portfolio managers, research analysts and other investment professionals of the advisor. Team members provide research support and make securities recommendations with respect to the fund's portfolio, but do not have day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to the fund's portfolio. Members of the teams may change from time to time. More information on the teams, including biographies of other members of the teams, may be found on the advisor's website (http://www.aiminvestments.com). The website is not part of this prospectus.

The fund's Statement of Additional Information provides additional information about the portfolio manager investments in the fund, a description of his compensation structure, and information regarding other accounts he manages.

DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DIST[RGIRBAUPTHIIOCN]S

The fund earns ordinary or investment income primarily from dividends and interest on its investments. The fund expects to distribute substantially all of this investment income, less fund expenses, to shareholders quarterly. The fund can make distributions at other times, if it chooses to do so.

The fund also realizes capital gains or losses when it sells securities in its portfolio for more or less than it had paid for them. If total gains on sales exceed total losses (including losses carried forward from previous years), the fund has a net realized capital gain. Net realized capital gain, if any, is distributed to shareholders at least annually, usually in December. Dividends and capital gain distributions are paid to you if you hold shares on the record date of the distribution regardless of how long you have held your shares.

NET INVESTMENT INCOME AND NET     Under present federal income tax laws, capital

                                  are taxed at up to the maximum capital gains
                                  rate, currently 15% for individuals.

                                  The fund's daily NAV reflects all ordinary income
                                  and realized capital gains that have not yet been
                                  distributed to shareholders. Therefore, the
                                  fund's NAV will drop by the amount of a
                                  dis-tribution, net of market fluctuations, on the
                                  day the distribution is declared. If you buy
                                  shares of the fund just before a distribution is
                                  declared, you may wind up "buying a distribution."

This means that if the fund declares a dividend or capital gain distribution shortly after you buy, you will receive some of your investment back as a taxable distribution. Although purchasing your shares at the resulting higher NAV may mean a smaller capital gain or greater loss upon sale of the shares, most shareholders want to avoid the purchase of shares immediately before the distribution record date. However, keep in mind that your basis in the fund will be increased to the extent such distributions are reinvested in the fund. If you sell your shares at a loss for tax purposes and then replace those shares with a substantially identical investment either thirty days before or after that sale, the transaction is usually considered a "wash sale" and you will not be able to claim a tax loss at the time of sale. Instead, the loss will be deferred to a later date.

Dividends and capital gain distributions paid by the fund are automatically reinvested in additional fund shares at the NAV on the ex-distribution date, unless you choose to have them automatically reinvested in the same share class of another AIM fund or paid to you by check or electronic funds transfer. If you choose to be paid by check, the minimum amount of the check must be at least $10; amounts less than that will be automatically reinvested.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The financial highlights table is intended to help you understand the financial performance of the fund's Investor Class shares. Certain information reflects financial results for a single fund share. The total returns in the table represent the annual percentage that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in the fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions). This information has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, whose report, along with the financial statements, is included in the fund's 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders. AIM Utilities Institutional Class shares commenced operations on October 25, 2005 and therefore, financial information for such shares is not available.

THE AIM FUNDS

SPECIAL PLANS

AUTOMATIC DIVIDEND INVESTMENT
All of your dividends and distributions may be paid in cash or reinvested in the same fund at net asset value. Unless you specify otherwise, your dividends and distributions will automatically be reinvested in the same fund.

ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS TO FINANCIAL ADVISORS
A I M Distributors, Inc. (ADI) or one or more of its corporate affiliates (collectively, ADI Affiliates) may make additional cash payments to financial advisors in connection with the promotion and sale of shares of the funds. These additional cash payments may include cash revenue sharing payments and other payments for certain administrative services, transaction processing services and certain other marketing support services. ADI Affiliates make these payments from their own resources and from ADI's retention of underwriting concessions. In this context, "financial advisors" include any broker, dealer, bank (including bank trust departments), registered investment advisor, financial planner, retirement plan administrator and any other financial intermediary having a selling, administration or similar agreement with ADI Affiliates.
ADI Affiliates make revenue sharing payments as incentives to certain financial advisors to promote and sell shares of the funds. The benefits ADI Affiliates receive when it makes these payments include, among other things, placing the funds on the financial advisor's funds sales system, placing the funds on the financial advisor's preferred or recommended fund list, and access (in some cases on a preferential basis over other competitors) to individual members of the financial advisor's sales force or to the financial advisor's management. Revenue sharing payments are sometimes referred to as "shelf space" payments because the payments compensate the financial advisor for including the funds in its fund sales system (on its "sales shelf"). ADI Affiliates compensate financial advisors differently depending typically on the level and/or type of considerations provided by the financial advisor. The revenue sharing payments ADI Affiliates make may be calculated on the average daily net assets of the applicable funds attributable to that particular financial advisor (Asset-Based Payments), in which case the total amount of such cash payments shall not exceed 0.10% per annum of those assets during a defined period. Asset-Based Payments primarily create incentives to retain previously sold shares of the funds in investor accounts.
ADI Affiliates also may make other payments to certain financial advisors for processing certain transactions or account maintenance activities (such as processing purchases, redemptions or exchanges or producing customer account statements) or for providing certain other marketing support services (such as financial assistance for conferences, seminars or sales or training programs at which ADI Affiliates personnel may make presentations on the funds to the financial advisor's sales force). Financial advisors may earn profits on these payments for these services, since the amount of the payment may exceed the cost of providing the service. Certain of these payments are subject to limitations under applicable law.
ADI Affiliates are motivated to make the payments described above since they promote the sale of fund shares and the retention of those investments by clients of financial advisors. To the extent financial advisors sell more shares of the funds or retain shares of the funds in their clients' accounts, ADI Affiliates benefit from the incremental management and other fees paid to ADI Affiliates by the funds with respect to those assets.
You can find further details in the fund's Statement of Additional Information about these payments and the services provided by financial advisors. In certain cases these payments could be significant to the financial advisor. Your financial advisor may charge you additional fees or commissions other than those disclosed in this prospectus. You can ask your financial advisor about any payments it receives from ADI Affiliates or the funds, as well as about fees and/or commissions it charges.

EXCESSIVE SHORT-TERM TRADING ACTIVITY DISCLOSURES
While the funds provide their shareholders with daily liquidity, their investment programs are designed to serve long-term investors and are not designed to accommodate excessive short-term trading activity in violation of our policies described below. Excessive short-term trading activity in the funds' shares (i.e., a purchase of fund shares followed shortly thereafter by a redemption of such shares, or vice versa) may hurt the long-term performance of certain funds by requiring them to maintain an excessive amount of cash or to liquidate portfolio holdings at a disadvantageous time, thus interfering with the efficient management of such funds by causing them to incur increased brokerage and administrative costs. Where excessive short-term trading activity seeks to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities from stale prices for portfolio securities, the value of fund shares held by long-term investors may be diluted. The Boards of Trustees have adopted policies and procedures designed to discourage excessive or short-term trading of fund shares for all funds except money market funds. However, there is the risk that these funds' policies and procedures will prove ineffective in whole or in part to detect or prevent excessive or short-term trading. These funds may alter their policies at any time without prior notice to shareholders if the advisor believes the change would be in the best interests of long-term shareholders.
AIM and its affiliates (collectively, AIM Affiliates) currently use the following tools designed to discourage excessive short-term trading in the retail funds:

(1) trade activity monitoring;

(2) trading guidelines;

(3) redemption fee on trades in certain funds; and

(4) use of fair value pricing consistent with procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees of the funds.

A-2 INSTCL--10/05


THE AIM FUNDS

Each of these tools is described in more detail below. Although these tools are designed to discourage excessive short-term trading, you should understand that none of these tools alone nor all of them taken together eliminate the possibility that excessive short-term trading activity in the funds will occur. Moreover, each of these tools involves judgments that are inherently subjective. The AIM Affiliates seek to make these judgments to the best of their abilities in a manner that they believe is consistent with long-term shareholder interests.
The Boards of Trustees of AIM Money Market Fund, AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio (the money market funds) have not adopted any policies and procedures that would limit frequent purchases and redemptions of such funds' shares. The Boards do not believe that it is appropriate to adopt any such policies and procedures for the money market funds for the following reasons:

. The money market funds are offered to investors as cash management vehicles. Investors must perceive an investment in such funds as an alternative to cash, and must be able to purchase and redeem shares regularly and frequently.

. One of the advantages of a money market fund as compared to other investment options is liquidity. Any policy that diminishes the liquidity of the money market funds will be detrimental to the continuing operations of such funds.

. The money market funds' portfolio securities are valued on the basis of amortized cost, and such funds seeks to maintain a constant net asset value. As a result, there are no price arbitrage opportunities.

. Because the money market funds seek to maintain a constant net asset value, investors expect to receive upon redemption the amount they originally invested in such funds. Imposition of redemption fees would run contrary to investor expectations.

The Boards considered the risks of not having a specific policy that limits frequent purchases and redemptions, and it determined that those risks are minimal, especially in light of the reasons for not having such a policy as described above. Nonetheless, to the extent that the fund must maintain additional cash and/or securities with short-term durations than may otherwise be required, the fund's yield could be negatively impacted.

TRADE ACTIVITY MONITORING
The AIM Affiliates monitor selected trades on a daily basis in an effort to detect excessive short-term trading activities. If, as a result of this monitoring, the AIM Affiliates believe that a shareholder has engaged in excessive short-term trading, they will seek to act in a manner that they believe is consistent with the best interests of long-term investors, which may include taking steps such as (i) asking the shareholder to take action to stop such activities or (ii) refusing to process future purchases or exchanges related to such activities in the shareholder's accounts other than exchanges into a money market fund. AIM Affiliates will use reasonable efforts to apply the fund's policies uniformly given the practical limitations described above.
The ability of the AIM Affiliates to monitor trades that are placed by the underlying shareholders of omnibus accounts maintained by brokers, retirement plan accounts and approved fee-based program accounts is severely limited or non-existent in those instances in which the broker, retirement plan administrator or fee-based program sponsor maintains the underlying shareholder accounts. This is one reason why this tool cannot eliminate the possibility of excessive short-term trading.

TRADING GUIDELINES
If you exceed four exchanges out of a fund (other than AIM Money Market Fund, AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio) per calendar year, or a fund or an AIM Affiliate determines, in its sole discretion, that your short-term trading activity is excessive (regardless of whether or not you exceed such guidelines), it may, in its discretion, reject any additional purchase and exchange orders. Each fund and the AIM Affiliates reserve the discretion to accept exchanges in excess of these guidelines on a case-by-case basis if they believe that granting such exceptions would be consistent with the best interests of shareholders. An exchange is the purchase of shares in one fund which is paid for with the proceeds from a redemption of shares of another fund effectuated on the same day. The movement out of one fund (redemption) and into one or more other funds (purchase) on the same day shall be counted as one exchange. Exchanges effected as part of programs that have been determined by an AIM Affiliate to be non-discretionary, such as dollar cost averaging, portfolio rebalancing, or other automatic non-discretionary programs that involve exchanges, generally will not be counted toward the trading guidelines limitation of four exchanges out of a fund per calendar year.
The ability of the AIM Affiliates to monitor exchanges made by the underlying shareholders of omnibus accounts maintained by brokers, retirement plan accounts and approved fee-based program accounts is severely limited or non-existent in those instances in which the broker, retirement plan administrator or fee-based program sponsor maintains the underlying shareholder accounts and is unwilling or unable to implement these trading guidelines and may be further limited by systems limitations applicable to those types of accounts.
Some investments in the funds are made indirectly through vehicles such as qualified tuition plans, variable annuity and insurance contracts, and funds of funds which use the funds as underlying investments (each a conduit investment vehicle). If shares of the funds are held in the name of a conduit investment vehicle and not in the names of the individual investors who have invested in the funds through the conduit investment vehicle, the conduit investment vehicle may be considered an individual shareholder of the funds. To the extent that a conduit investment vehicle is considered an individual shareholder of the funds, the funds are likely to be limited in their ability to impose exchange limitations on individual transactions initiated by investors who have invested in the funds through the conduit investment vehicle.

REDEMPTION FEE
You may be charged a 2% redemption fee if you redeem, including redeeming by exchange, shares of certain funds within 30 days of purchase. See "Redeeming Shares -- Redemption Fee" for more information.
The ability of a fund to assess a redemption fee on the underlying shareholders of omnibus accounts maintained by brokers, retirement plan accounts and approved fee-based program accounts is severely limited or non-existent in those instances in which the broker, retirement plan administrator or fee-based program sponsor maintains the underlying shareholder accounts and is unwilling or unable to assess such fees and may be further limited by systems limitations applicable to these types of accounts.
For additional discussion of the applicability of redemption fees on shares of the fund held through omnibus accounts, retirement plan accounts, approved fee-based program accounts and conduit investment vehicles, see "Redeeming Shares -- Redemption Fee".

FAIR VALUE PRICING
Securities owned by a fund are to be valued at current market value if market quotations are readily available. All other securities and assets of a fund for which market quotations are not readily available are to be valued at fair value determined in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees of the fund. Fair value pricing may reduce the ability of frequent traders to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities resulting from potentially "stale" prices of portfolio holdings. However, it cannot eliminate the possibility of frequent trading.
See "Pricing of Shares -- Determination of Net Asset Value" for more information.

REDEEMING SHARES

REDEMPTION FEE
You may be charged a 2% redemption fee (on redemption proceeds) if you redeem, including redeeming by exchange, shares of the following funds within 30 days of their purchase:

AIM Asia Pacific Growth
Fund                      AIM Global Value Fund
AIM Developing Markets
Fund                      AIM High Yield Fund
AIM European Growth Fund  AIM International Core
                          Equity Fund
AIM European Small        AIM International Growth
Company Fund              Fund
AIM Global Aggressive     AIM International Small
Growth Fund               Company Fund
AIM Global Equity Fund    AIM S&P 500 Index Fund
AIM Global Growth Fund    AIM Trimark Fund
AIM Global Real Estate
Fund

The redemption fee will be retained by the fund from which you are redeeming shares (including redemptions by exchange), and is intended to offset the trading costs, market impact and other costs associated with short-term money movements in and out of the fund. The redemption fee is imposed to the extent that the number of fund shares you redeem exceeds the number of fund shares that you have held for more than 30 days. In determining whether the minimum 30 day holding period has been met, only the period during which you have held shares of the fund from which you are redeeming is counted. For this purpose, shares held longest will be treated as being redeemed first and shares held shortest as being redeemed last.
The 2% redemption fee generally will not be charged on transactions involving the following:

(1) total or partial redemptions of shares by omnibus accounts maintained by brokers that do not have the systematic capability to process the redemption fee;

(2) total or partial redemptions of shares by approved fee-based programs that do not have the systematic capability to process the redemption fee;

(3) total or partial redemptions of shares held through retirement plans maintained pursuant to Sections 401, 403, 408, 408A and 457 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") where the systematic capability to process the redemption fee does not exist;

(4) total or partial redemptions effectuated by funds of funds, qualified tuition plans maintained pursuant to Section 529 of the Code, and insurance company separate accounts which use the funds as underlying investments;

(5) total or partial redemptions effectuated pursuant to an automatic non-discretionary rebalancing program or a systematic withdrawal plan established with the funds or a financial intermediary;

(6) total or partial redemptions requested within 30 days following the death or post-purchase disability of (i) any registered shareholder on an account or (ii) the settlor of a living trust which is the registered shareholder of an account, of shares held in the account at the time of death or initial determination of post-purchase disability;

(7) total or partial redemption of shares acquired through investment of dividends and other distributions; or

(8) redemptions initiated by a fund.

The AIM Affiliates' goals are to apply the redemption fee on all classes of shares of the above funds regardless of the type of account in which such shares are held. This goal is not immediately achievable because of systems limitations and marketplace resistance. Brokers that maintain omnibus accounts, sponsors of fee-based program accounts and retirement plan administrators for accounts that are exempt from the redemption fee pursuant to (1) through
(8) above may impose a redemption fee that has different characteristics, which may be more or less restrictive, than those set forth above.

A-4 INSTCL--10/05


THE AIM FUNDS

Some investments in the funds are made indirectly through conduit investment vehicles. If shares of the funds are held in the name of a conduit investment vehicle and not in the names of the individual investors who have invested in the funds through the conduit investment vehicle, the conduit investment vehicle may be considered an individual shareholder of the funds. To the extent that a conduit investment vehicle is considered an individual shareholder of the funds, the funds are likely to be limited in their ability to assess redemption fees on individual transactions initiated by investors who have invested in the funds through the conduit investment vehicle. In these cases, the applicability of redemption fees will be determined based on the aggregate holdings and redemptions of the conduit investment vehicle in a fund.
The funds have the discretion to waive the 2% redemption fee if a fund is in jeopardy of losing its registered investment company qualification for tax purposes.
Your broker or financial advisor may charge service fees for handling redemption transactions. Your shares also may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) in addition to the redemption fee.

HOW TO REDEEM SHARES
----------------------------------------------------------

Through a Financial Advisor Contact your financial
                            advisor. Redemption proceeds
                            will be sent in accordance
                            with the wire instructions
                            specified in the account
                            application provided to the
                            transfer agent. The transfer
                            agent must receive your
                            financial intermediary's call
                            before the close of the
                            customary trading session of
                            the New York Stock Exchange
                            (NYSE) on days the NYSE is
                            open for business in order to
                            effect the redemption at that
                            day's closing price.

By Telephone                A person who has been
                            authorized in the account
                            application to effect
                            transactions may make
                            redemptions by telephone. You
                            must call the transfer agent
                            before the close of the
                            customary trading session of
                            the NYSE on days the NYSE is
                            open for business in order to
                            effect the redemption at that
                            day's closing price.
----------------------------------------------------------

TIMING AND METHOD OF PAYMENT
We normally will send out redemption proceeds within one business day, and in any event no more than seven days, after we accept your request to redeem.

REDEMPTION BY TELEPHONE
If you redeem by telephone, we will transmit the amount of the redemption proceeds electronically to your pre-authorized bank account. We use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine and are not liable for telephone instructions that are reasonably believed to be genuine.

REDEMPTIONS IN KIND
Although the funds generally intend to pay redemption proceeds solely in cash, the funds reserve the right determine in their sole discretion, whether to satisfy redemption requests by making payment in securities or other property (known as a redemption in kind).

REDEMPTIONS BY THE AIM FUNDS
If the fund determines that you have not provided a correct Social Security or other tax ID number on your account application, or the fund is not able to verify your identity as required by law, the fund may, at its discretion, redeem the account and distribute the proceeds to you.

EXCHANGING SHARES
You may, under most circumstances, exchange Institutional Class shares in one fund for Institutional Class shares of another fund. An exchange is the purchase of shares in one fund which is paid for with the proceeds from a redemption of shares of another fund effectuated on the same day. Before requesting an exchange, review the prospectus of the fund you wish to acquire.
You may be charged a redemption fee on certain redemptions, including exchanges. See "Redeeming Shares -- Redemption Fee."

EXCHANGE CONDITIONS
The following conditions apply to all exchanges:

. Shares of the fund you wish to acquire must be available for sale in your state of residence;

. Exchanges must be made between accounts with identical registration information;

. The account you wish to exchange from must have a certified tax identification number (or the Fund has received an appropriate Form W-8 or W-9);

. Shares must have been held for at least one day prior to the exchange with the exception of dividends that are reinvested; and

. If you have physical share certificates, you must return them to the transfer agent prior to the exchange.

TERMS OF EXCHANGE
Under unusual market conditions, a fund may delay the purchase of shares being acquired in an exchange for up to five business days if it determines that it would be materially disadvantaged by the immediate transfer of exchange proceeds. The exchange privilege is not an option or right to purchase shares. Any of the participating funds or the distributor may modify or terminate this privilege at any time. The fund or the distributor will provide you with notice of such modification or termination whenever it is required to do so by applicable law, but may impose changes at any time for emergency purposes.

INSTCL--10/05 A-5


THE AIM FUNDS

BY TELEPHONE
Conditions that apply to exchanges by telephone are the same as redemptions by telephone, including that the transfer agent must receive exchange requests during the hours of the customary trading session of the NYSE; however, you still will be allowed to exchange by telephone even if you have changed your address of record within the preceding 30 days.

Each fund and its agents reserve the right at any time to:
. reject or cancel all or any part of any purchase or exchange order;
. modify any terms or conditions of purchase of shares of any fund; or
. suspend, change or withdraw all or any part of the offering made by this prospectus.

PRICING OF SHARES

DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE
The price of each fund's shares is the fund's net asset value per share. The funds value portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available at market value. The funds value all other securities and assets for which market quotations are unavailable or unreliable at their fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees of the funds. Securities and other assets quoted in foreign currencies are valued in U.S. dollars based on the prevailing exchange rates on that day.
Even when market quotations are available, they may be stale or they may be unreliable because the security is not traded frequently, trading on the security ceased before the close of the trading market or issuer specific events occurred after the security ceased trading or because of the passage of time between the close of the market on which the security trades and the close of the NYSE and when the fund calculates its net asset value. Issuer specific events may cause the last market quotation to be unreliable. Such events may include a merger or insolvency, events which affect a geographical area or an industry segment, such as political events or natural disasters, or market events, such as a significant movement in the U.S. market. Where market quotations are not readily available, including where AIM determines that the closing price of the security is unreliable, AIM will value the security at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees. Fair value pricing may reduce the ability of frequent traders to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities resulting from potentially "stale" prices of portfolio holdings. However, it cannot eliminate the possibility of frequent trading.
Fair value is that amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale. Fair value requires consideration of all appropriate factors, including indications of fair value available from pricing services. A fair value price is an estimated price and may vary from the prices used by other mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.
AIM may use indications of fair value from pricing services approved by the Boards of Trustees. In other circumstances, the AIM valuation committee may fair value securities in good faith using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees. As a means of evaluating its fair value process, AIM routinely compares closing market prices, the next day's opening prices for the security in its primary market if available, and indications of fair value from other sources. Fair value pricing methods and pricing services can change from time to time as approved by the Boards of Trustees.
Specific types of securities are valued as follows:
Domestic Exchange Traded Equity Securities: Market quotations are generally available and reliable for domestic exchange traded equity securities. If market quotations are not available or are unreliable, AIM will value the security at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees.
Foreign Securities: If market quotations are available and reliable for foreign exchange traded equity securities, the securities will be valued at the market quotations. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before the close of the NYSE, closing market quotations may become unreliable. If between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of the customary trading session on the NYSE events occur that are significant and may make the closing price unreliable, the fund may fair value the security. If an issuer specific event has occurred that AIM determines, in its judgment, is likely to have affected the closing price of a foreign security, it will price the security at fair value. AIM also relies on a screening process from a pricing vendor to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. For foreign securities where AIM believes, at the approved degree of certainty, that the price is not reflective of current market value, AIM will use the indication of fair value from the pricing service to determine the fair value of the security. The pricing vendor, pricing methodology or degree of certainty may change from time to time.
Fund securities primarily traded on foreign markets may trade on days that are not business days of the fund. Because the net asset value of fund shares is determined only on business days of the fund, the value of the portfolio securities of a fund that invests in foreign securities may change on days when you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of the fund.
Fixed Income Securities: Government, corporate, asset-backed and municipal bonds and convertible securities, including high yield or junk bonds, normally are valued on the basis of prices provided by independent pricing services. Prices provided by the pricing services may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to special securities, dividend rate, maturity and other market data. Prices received from pricing services are fair value prices. In addition, if the price provided by the pricing service and independent quoted prices are unreliable,

A-6 INSTCL--10/05


THE AIM FUNDS

the AIM valuation committee will fair value the security using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees.
Short-term Securities: The funds' short-term investments are valued at amortized cost when the security has 60 days or less to maturity. AIM Money Market Fund, AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio value all their securities at amortized cost. AIM High Income Municipal Fund, AIM Municipal Bond Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund value variable rate securities that have an unconditional demand or put feature exercisable within seven days or less at par, which reflects the market value of such securities.
Futures and Options: Futures and options are valued on the basis of market quotations, if available.
Open-end Funds: To the extent a fund invests in other open-end funds, the investing fund will calculate its net asset value using the net asset value of the underlying fund in which it invests.
Each fund determines the net asset value of its shares on each day the NYSE is open for business, as of the close of the customary trading session, or earlier NYSE closing time that day. AIM Money Market Fund also determines its net asset value as of 12:00 noon Eastern Time on each day the NYSE is open for business.

TIMING OF ORDERS
You can purchase, exchange or redeem shares on each day the NYSE is open for business, prior to the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time that day. The funds price purchase, exchange and redemption orders at the net asset value calculated after the transfer agent receives an order in good order. Any applicable sales charges are applied at the time an order is processed. A fund may postpone the right of redemption only under unusual circumstances,
as allowed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as when the NYSE restricts or suspends trading.

In general, dividends and distributions you receive are taxable as ordinary income or long-term capital gains for federal income tax purposes, whether you reinvest them in additional shares or take them in cash. Distributions are generally taxable to you at different rates depending on the length of time the fund holds its assets and the type of income that the fund earns. Different tax rates apply to ordinary income, qualified dividend income, and long-term capital gain distributions. Every year, you will be sent information showing the amount of dividends and distributions you received from each fund during the prior year.
Any long-term or short-term capital gains realized from redemptions of fund shares will be subject to federal income tax. Exchanges of shares for shares of another fund are treated as a sale, and any gain realized on the transaction will generally be subject to federal income tax.

INVESTORS IN TAX-EXEMPT FUNDS SHOULD READ THE INFORMATION UNDER THE HEADING "OTHER INFORMATION -- SPECIAL TAX INFORMATION REGARDING THE FUND" IN THEIR PROSPECTUS.
The foreign, state and local tax consequences of investing in fund shares may differ materially from the federal income tax consequences described above. In addition, the preceding discussion concerning the taxability of fund dividends and distributions and of redemptions and exchanges of fund shares is inapplicable to investors that are generally exempt from federal income tax, such as retirement plans that are qualified under Section 401, 403, 408, 408A and 457 of the Internal Revenue Code, individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and Roth IRAs. You should consult your tax advisor before investing.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRUST

AIM Sector Funds (the "Trust") was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 24, 2003. Pursuant to shareholder approval obtained at a shareholder meeting held on October 21, 2003, each series portfolio of INVESCO Sector Funds, Inc. was redomesticated as a new series of the Trust on November 20, 2003. INVESCO Sector Funds, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of Maryland as INVESCO Strategic Portfolios, Inc. on August 10, 1983. On October 29, 1998, the name of the Company was changed to INVESCO Sector Funds, Inc. On October 31, 1999, the Company changed its fiscal year end to March 31. On October 1, 2003, the name of the Company was changed to AIM Sector Funds, Inc. On October 15, 2004, INVESCO Energy Fund, INVESCO Financial Services Fund, INVESCO Gold & Precious Metals Fund, INVESCO Leisure Fund, INVESCO Technology Fund and INVESCO Utilities Fund changed their names to AIM Energy Fund, AIM Financial Services Fund, AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund, AIM Leisure Fund, AIM Technology Fund and AIM Utilities Fund, respectively.

The Trust is an open-end, diversified, management investment company currently consisting of six Funds: AIM Energy Fund, AIM Financial Services Fund, AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund, AIM Leisure Fund, AIM Technology Fund and AIM Utilities Fund(each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"). Additional funds and classes may be offered in the future.

"Open-end" means that each Fund may issue an indefinite number of shares which are continuously offered and which may be redeemed at net asset value ("NAV"). A "management" investment company actively buys and sells securities for each Fund at the direction of a professional manager. Open-end management investment companies (or one or more series of such companies, such as the Funds) are commonly referred to as mutual funds.

SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest of each class of shares of each Fund.

Shares of beneficial interest of the Trust are redeemable at their net asset value (subject, in certain circumstances, to a contingent deferred sales charge or redemption fee) at the option of the shareholder or at the option of the Trust in certain circumstances.

Each Fund offers separate classes of shares as follows:

* The Fund previously offered Class K shares. Class K shares were converted to Class A shares at the close of business October 21, 2005.

The Institutional Class shares of the AIM Technology Fund and AIM Utilities Fund are intended for use by certain eligible institutional investors, including the following:

. banks and trust companies acting in a fiduciary or similar capacity;

3

. bank and trust company common and collective trust funds;

. banks and trust companies investing for their own account;

. entities acting for the account of a public entity (e.g. Taft-Hartley funds, states, cities or government agencies);

. retirement plans;

. platform sponsors with which A I M Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") has entered into an agreement; and

. proprietary asset allocation funds.

A share of each class of a Fund represents an identical interest in that Fund's investment portfolio and has the same rights, privileges, and preferences. However, each class may differ with respect to sales charges, if any, distribution and/or service fees, if any, other expenses allocable exclusively to each class, voting rights on matters exclusively affecting that class, conversion features, if any, and its exchange privilege, if any. The different sales charges and other expenses applicable to the different classes of shares of the Funds will affect the performance of those classes. Each share of a Fund is entitled to participate equally in dividends for that class, other distributions and the proceeds of any liquidation of a class of that Fund. However, due to the differing expenses of the classes, dividends and liquidation proceeds on each class of shares will differ. All shares of a fund will be voted together, except that only the shareholders of a particular class of a Fund may vote on matters exclusively affecting that class, such as the terms of a Rule 12b-1 Plan as it relates to the class. All shares issued and outstanding are, and all shares offered hereby when issued will be, fully paid and nonassessable. The Board of Trustees of the Trust (the "Board") has the authority to designate additional classes of beneficial interest without seeking the approval of shareholders.

Because Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares at month-end eight years after the date of purchase, the Funds' distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act requires that Class B shareholders must also approve any material increase in distribution fees submitted to Class A shareholders of that Fund. A pro rata portion of shares from reinvested dividends and distributions convert along with the Class B shares.

Shares have no preemptive rights and are freely transferable on the books of each Fund.

All shares of the Trust have equal voting rights based on one vote for each share owned. The Trust is not generally required and does not expect to hold regular annual meetings of shareholders. However, when requested to do so in writing by the holders of 10% or more of the outstanding shares of the Trust or as may be required by applicable law or the Trust's Agreement and Declaration of Trust, the Board will call special meetings of shareholders.

Trustees may be removed by action of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Trust. The Funds will assist shareholders in communicating with other shareholders as required by the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (the "1940 Act").

Fund shares have noncumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of a majority of the shares of the Trust voting for the election of trustees of the Trust can elect 100% of the trustees if they choose to do so. If that occurs, the holders of the remaining shares voting for the election of trustees will not be able to elect any person or persons to the Board.

SHARE CERTIFICATES. Shareholders of the Fund do not have the right to demand or require the Trust to issue share certificates.

INVESTMENTS, POLICIES AND RISKS

The principal investments and policies of the Funds are discussed in the Prospectuses of the Funds. The Funds also may invest in the following securities and engage in the following practices.

4

ADRS AND EDRS -- American Depositary Receipts, or ADRs, are receipts typically issued by U.S. banks. ADRs are receipts for the shares of foreign corporations that are held by the bank issuing the receipt. An ADR entitles its holder to all dividends and capital gains on the underlying foreign securities, less any fees paid to the bank. Purchasing ADRs gives a Fund the ability to purchase the functional equivalent of foreign securities without going to the foreign securities markets to do so. ADRs are bought and sold in U.S. dollars, not foreign currencies. An ADR that is "sponsored" means that the foreign corporation whose shares are represented by the ADR is actively involved in the issuance of the ADR, and generally provides material information about the corporation to the U.S. market. An "unsponsored" ADR program means that the foreign corporation whose shares are held by the bank is not obligated to disclose material information in the United States, and, therefore, the market value of the ADR may not reflect important facts known only to the foreign company. Since they mirror their underlying foreign securities, ADRs generally have the same risks as investing directly in the underlying foreign securities. European Depositary Receipts, or EDRs, are similar to ADRs, except that they are typically issued by European banks or trust companies.

CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT IN FOREIGN BANKS AND U.S. BRANCHES OF FOREIGN BANKS -- The Funds may maintain time deposits in and invest in U.S. dollar denominated certificates of deposit ("CDs") issued by foreign banks and U.S. branches of foreign banks. The Funds limit investments in foreign bank obligations to U.S. dollar denominated obligations of foreign banks which have more than $10 billion in assets, have branches or agencies in the U.S., and meet other criteria established by the Board. Investments in foreign securities involve special considerations. There is generally less publicly available information about foreign issuers since many foreign countries do not have the same disclosure and reporting requirements as are imposed by the U.S. securities laws. Moreover, foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting and auditing and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Such investments may also entail the risks of possible imposition of dividend withholding or confiscatory taxes, possible currency blockage or transfer restrictions, expropriation, nationalization or other adverse political or economic developments, and the difficulty of enforcing obligations in other countries.

The Funds may also invest in bankers' acceptances, time deposits, and certificates of deposit of U.S. branches of foreign banks and foreign branches of U.S. banks. Investments in instruments of U.S. branches of foreign banks will be made only with branches that are subject to the same regulations as U.S. banks. Investments in instruments issued by a foreign branch of a U.S. bank will be made only if the investment risk associated with such investment is the same as that involving an investment in instruments issued by the U.S. parent, with the U.S. parent unconditionally liable in the event that the foreign branch fails to pay on the investment for any reason.

COMMERCIAL PAPER -- Commercial paper is the term for short-term promissory notes issued by domestic corporations to meet current working capital needs. Commercial paper may be unsecured by the corporation's assets but may be backed by a letter of credit from a bank or other financial institution. The letter of credit enhances the commercial paper's creditworthiness. The issuer is directly responsible for payment but the bank "guarantees" that if the note is not paid at maturity by the issuer, the bank will pay the principal and interest to the buyer. AIM will consider the creditworthiness of the institution issuing the letter of credit, as well as the creditworthiness of the issuer of the commercial paper, when purchasing paper enhanced by a letter of credit. Commercial paper is sold either in an interest-bearing form or on a discounted basis, with maturities not exceeding 270 days.

DEBT SECURITIES -- Debt securities include bonds, notes, and other securities that give the holder the right to receive fixed amounts of principal, interest, or both on a date in the future or on demand. Debt securities also are often referred to as fixed-income securities, even if the rate of interest varies over the life of the security.

Debt securities are generally subject to credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of the security may be unable to meet interest or principal payments or both as they come due. Market risk is the risk that the market value of the security may decline for a variety of reasons, including changes in interest rates. An increase in interest rates tends to reduce the market values of debt securities in which a Fund has invested. A decline in interest rates tends to increase the market values of debt securities in which a Fund has invested.

Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") and Standard & Poor's ("S&P") ratings provide a useful guide to the credit risk of many debt securities. The lower the rating of a debt security, the greater the credit risk the rating service assigns to the security. To compensate investors for accepting that greater risk, lower-rated debt securities tend to offer higher interest rates. Lower-rated debt securities are often referred to as "junk bonds." Increasing the amount of Fund assets invested in unrated or lower-grade straight debt securities may increase the yield produced by a Fund's debt securities but will also increase the credit risk of those securities. A debt security is considered lower-grade if it is rated Ba or less by Moody's or

5

BB or less by S&P at the time of purchase. Lower-rated and non-rated debt securities of comparable quality are subject to wider fluctuations in yields and market values than higher-rated debt securities and may be considered speculative. Although a Fund may invest in debt securities assigned lower grade ratings by S&P or Moody's at the time of purchase, the Funds' investments have generally been limited to debt securities rated B or higher by either S&P or Moody's at the time of purchase. Debt securities rated lower than B by either S&P or Moody's are usually considered to be speculative. At the time of purchase, AIM will limit Fund investments to debt securities which AIM believes are not highly speculative and which are rated at least CCC by S&P or Caa by Moody's.

A significant economic downturn or increase in interest rates may cause issuers of debt securities to experience increased financial problems which could adversely affect their ability to pay principal and interest obligations, to meet projected business goals, and to obtain additional financing. These conditions more severely impact issuers of lower-rated debt securities. The market for lower-rated straight debt securities may not be as liquid as the market for higher-rated straight debt securities. Therefore, AIM attempts to limit purchases of lower-rated securities to securities having an established secondary market.

Debt securities rated Caa by Moody's may be in default or may present risks of non-payment of principal or interest. Lower-rated securities by S&P (categories BB, B, or CCC) include those which are predominantly speculative because of the issuer's perceived capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with their terms; BB indicates the lowest degree of speculation and CCC a high degree of speculation. While such bonds will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these are usually outweighed by large uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse conditions.

The Funds expect that most emerging country debt securities in which they invest will not be rated by U.S. rating services. Although bonds in the lowest investment grade debt category (those rated BBB by S&P, Baa by Moody's or the equivalent) are regarded as having adequate capability to pay principal and interest, they have speculative characteristics. Adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to make principal and interest payments than is the case for higher-rated bonds. Lower-rated bonds by Moody's (categories Ba, B, or Caa) are of poorer quality and also have speculative characteristics. Bonds rated Caa may be in default or there may be present elements of danger with respect to principal or interest. Lower-rated bonds by S&P (categories BB, B, or CCC) include those that are regarded, on balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with their terms; BB indicates the lowest degree of speculation and CCC a high degree of speculation. While such bonds likely will have some quality and protective characteristics, these are outweighed by large uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse conditions. Bonds having equivalent ratings from other rating services will have characteristics similar to those of the corresponding S&P and Moody's ratings. For a specific description of S&P and Moody's corporate bond rating categories, please refer to Appendix A.

The Funds may invest in zero coupon bonds, step-up bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities. Zero coupon bonds do not make regular interest payments. Zero coupon bonds are sold at a discount from face value. Principal and accrued discount (representing interest earned but not paid) are paid at maturity in the amount of the face value. Step-up bonds initially make no (or low) cash interest payments but begin paying interest (or a higher rate of interest) at a fixed time after issuance of the bond. The market values of zero coupon and step-up bonds generally fluctuate more in response to changes in interest rates than interest-paying securities of comparable term and quality. A Fund may be required to distribute income recognized on these bonds, even though no cash may be paid to the Fund until the maturity or call date of a bond, in order for the Fund to maintain its qualification as a regulated investment company. These required distributions could reduce the amount of cash available for investment by a Fund.

DOMESTIC BANK OBLIGATIONS -- U.S. banks (including their foreign branches) issue CDs and bankers' acceptances which may be purchased by the Funds if an issuing bank has total assets in excess of $5 billion and the bank otherwise meets the Funds' credit rating requirements. CDs are issued against deposits in a commercial bank for a specified period and rate and are normally negotiable. Eurodollar CDs are certificates issued by a foreign branch (usually London) of a U.S. domestic bank, and, as such, the credit is deemed to be that of the domestic bank. Bankers' acceptances are short-term credit instruments evidencing the promise of the bank (by virtue of the bank's "acceptance") to pay at maturity a draft which has been drawn on it by a customer (the "drawer"). Bankers' acceptances are used to finance the import, export, transfer, or storage of goods and reflect the obligation of both the bank and the drawer to pay the face amount. Both types of securities are subject to the ability of the issuing bank to meet its obligations, and are subject to risks common to all debt securities. In addition, Eurodollar CDs and banker's acceptances may be subject to foreign currency risk and certain other risks of investment in foreign securities.

6

EQUITY SECURITIES -- The Funds may invest in common, preferred, and convertible preferred stocks, and securities whose values are tied to the price of stocks, such as rights, warrants, and convertible debt securities. Common stocks and preferred stocks represent equity ownership in a corporation. Owners of stock, such as the Funds, share in a corporation's earnings through dividends which may be declared by the corporation, although the receipt of dividends is not the principal benefit that the Funds seek when they invest in stocks and similar instruments.

Instead, the Funds seek to invest in stocks that will increase in market value and may be sold for more than a Fund paid to buy them. Market value is based upon constantly changing investor perceptions of what the company is worth compared to other companies. Although dividends are a factor in the changing market value of stocks, many companies do not pay dividends, or pay comparatively small dividends. The principal risk of investing in equity securities is that their market values fluctuate constantly, often due to factors entirely outside the control of the Funds or the company issuing the stock. At any given time, the market value of an equity security may be significantly higher or lower than the amount paid by a Fund to acquire it.

Owners of preferred stocks are entitled to dividends payable from the corporation's earnings, which in some cases may be "cumulative" if prior dividends on the preferred stock have not been paid. Dividends payable on preferred stock have priority over distributions to holders of common stock, and preferred stocks generally have a priority on the distribution of assets in the event of the corporation's liquidation. Preferred stocks may be "participating," which means that they may be entitled to dividends in excess of the stated dividend in certain cases. The holders of a company's debt securities generally are entitled to be paid by the company before it pays anything to its stockholders.

Rights and warrants are securities which entitle the holder to purchase the securities of a company (usually, its common stock) at a specified price during a specified time period. The value of a right or warrant is affected by many of the same factors that determine the prices of common stocks. Rights and warrants may be purchased directly or acquired in connection with a corporate reorganization or exchange offer.

The Funds also may purchase convertible securities including convertible debt obligations and convertible preferred stock. A convertible security entitles the holder to exchange it for a fixed number of shares of common stock (or other equity security), usually at a fixed price within a specified period of time. Until conversion, the owner of convertible securities usually receives the interest paid on a convertible bond or the dividend preference of a preferred stock.

A convertible security has an "investment value" which is a theoretical value determined by the yield it provides in comparison with similar securities without the conversion feature. Investment value changes are based upon prevailing interest rates and other factors. It also has a "conversion value," which is the market value the convertible security would have if it were exchanged for the underlying equity security. Convertible securities may be purchased at varying price levels above or below their investment values or conversion values.

Conversion value is a simple mathematical calculation that fluctuates directly with the price of the underlying security. However, if the conversion value is substantially below the investment value, the market value of the convertible security is governed principally by its investment value. If the conversion value is near or above the investment value, the market value of the convertible security generally will rise above the investment value. In such cases, the market value of the convertible security may be higher than its conversion value, due to the combination of the convertible security's right to interest (or dividend preference) and the possibility of capital appreciation from the conversion feature. However, there is no assurance that any premium above investment value or conversion value will be recovered because prices change and, as a result, the ability to achieve capital appreciation through conversion may be eliminated.

EUROBONDS AND YANKEE BONDS -- Bonds issued by foreign branches of U.S. banks ("Eurobonds") and bonds issued by a U.S. branch of a foreign bank and sold in the United States ("Yankee bonds"). These bonds are bought and sold in U.S. dollars, but generally carry with them the same risks as investing in foreign securities.

FOREIGN SECURITIES -- Investments in the securities of foreign companies, or companies that have their principal business activities outside the United States, involve certain risks not associated with investments in U.S. companies. Non-U.S. companies generally are not subject to the same uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards that apply to U.S. companies. Therefore, financial information about foreign companies may be incomplete, or may not be comparable to the information available on U.S. companies. There may also be less publicly available information about a foreign company.

7

Although the volume of trading in foreign securities markets is growing, securities of many non-U.S. companies may be less liquid and have greater swings in price than securities of comparable U.S. companies. The costs of buying and selling securities on foreign securities exchanges are generally significantly higher than similar costs in the United States. There is generally less government supervision and regulation of exchanges, brokers, and issuers in foreign countries than there is in the United States. Investments in non-U.S. securities may also be subject to other risks different from those affecting U.S. investments, including local political or economic developments, expropriation or nationalization of assets, confiscatory taxation, and imposition of withholding taxes on dividends or interest payments. If it becomes necessary, it may be more difficult for a Fund to obtain or to enforce a judgment against a foreign issuer than against a domestic issuer.

Securities traded on foreign markets are usually bought and sold in local currencies, not in U.S. dollars. Therefore, the market value of foreign securities acquired by a Fund can be affected -- favorably or unfavorably -- by changes in currency rates and exchange control regulations. Costs are incurred in converting money from one currency to another. Foreign currency exchange rates are determined by supply and demand on the foreign exchange markets. Foreign exchange markets are affected by the international balance of payments and other economic and financial conditions, government intervention, speculation and other factors, all of which are outside the control of each Fund. Generally, the Funds' foreign currency exchange transactions will be conducted on a cash or "spot" basis at the spot rate for purchasing or selling currency in the foreign currency exchange markets.

FUTURES, OPTIONS, AND OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

General. AIM may use various types of financial instruments, some of which are derivatives, to attempt to manage the risk of a Fund's investments or, in certain circumstances, for investment (e.g., as a substitute for investing in securities). These financial instruments include options, futures contracts (sometimes referred to as "futures"), forward contracts, swaps, caps, floors, and collars (collectively, "Financial Instruments"). The policies in this section do not apply to other types of instruments sometimes referred to as derivatives, such as indexed securities, mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities, and stripped interest and principal of debt.

Hedging strategies can be broadly categorized as "short" hedges and "long" or "anticipatory" hedges. A short hedge involves the use of a Financial Instrument in order to partially or fully offset potential variations in the value of one or more investments held in a Fund's portfolio. A long or anticipatory hedge involves the use of a Financial Instrument in order to partially or fully offset potential increases in the acquisition cost of one or more investments that the Fund intends to acquire. In an anticipatory hedge transaction, the Fund does not already own a corresponding security. Rather, the hedge relates to a security or type of security that the Fund intends to acquire. If the Fund does not eliminate the hedge by purchasing the security as anticipated, the effect on the Fund's portfolio is the same as if a long position were entered into. Financial Instruments may also be used, in certain circumstances, for investment (e.g., as a substitute for investing in securities).

Financial Instruments on individual securities generally are used to attempt to hedge against price movements in one or more particular securities positions that a Fund already owns or intends to acquire. Financial Instruments on indexes, in contrast, generally are used to attempt to hedge all or a portion of a portfolio against price movements of the securities within a market sector in which the Fund has invested or expects to invest.

The use of Financial Instruments is subject to applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the several exchanges upon which they are traded, and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"). In addition, the Funds' ability to use Financial Instruments will be limited by tax considerations. See "Tax Consequences of Owning Shares of a Fund."

In addition to the instruments and strategies described below, AIM may use other similar or related techniques to the extent that they are consistent with a Fund's investment objective and permitted by its investment limitations and applicable regulatory authorities. The Funds' Prospectuses or SAI will be supplemented to the extent that new products or techniques become employed involving materially different risks than those described below or in the Prospectuses.

Special Risks. Financial Instruments and their use involve special considerations and risks, certain of which are described below.

(1) Financial Instruments may increase the volatility of a Fund. If AIM employs a Financial Instrument that correlates imperfectly with a Fund's investments, a loss could result, regardless of whether or not the intent was to manage risk. In

8

addition, these techniques could result in a loss if there is not a liquid market to close out a position that a Fund has entered.

(2) There might be imperfect correlation between price movements of a Financial Instrument and price movement of the investment(s) being hedged. For example, if the value of a Financial Instrument used in a short hedge increased by less than the decline in value of the hedged investment(s), the hedge would not be fully successful. This might be caused by certain kinds of trading activity that distorts the normal price relationship between the security being hedged and the Financial Instrument. Similarly, the effectiveness of hedges using Financial Instruments on indexes will depend on the degree of correlation between price movements in the index and price movements in the securities being hedged.

The Funds are authorized to use options and futures contracts related to securities with issuers, maturities or other characteristics different from the securities in which it typically invests. This involves a risk that the options or futures position will not track the performance of a Fund's portfolio investments.

The direction of options and futures price movements can also diverge from the direction of the movements of the prices of their underlying instruments, even if the underlying instruments match a Fund's investments well. Options and futures prices are affected by such factors as current and anticipated short-term interest rates, changes in volatility of the underlying instrument, and the time remaining until expiration of the contract, which may not affect security prices the same way. Imperfect correlation may also result from differing levels of demand in the options and futures markets and the securities markets, from structural differences in how options and futures and securities are traded, or from imposition of daily price fluctuation limits or trading halts. A Fund may take positions in options and futures contracts with a greater or lesser face value than the securities it wishes to hedge or intends to purchase in order to attempt to compensate for differences in volatility between the contract and the securities, although this may not be successful in all cases.

(3) If successful, the above-discussed hedging strategies can reduce risk of loss by wholly or partially offsetting the negative effect of unfavorable price movements of portfolio securities. However, such strategies can also reduce opportunity for gain by offsetting the positive effect of favorable price movements. For example, if a Fund entered into a short hedge because AIM projected a decline in the price of a security in the Fund's portfolio, and the price of that security increased instead, the gain from that increase would likely be wholly or partially offset by a decline in the value of the short position in the Financial Instrument. Moreover, if the price of the Financial Instrument declined by more than the increase in the price of the security, the Fund could suffer a loss.

(4) A Fund's ability to close out a position in a Financial Instrument prior to expiration or maturity depends on the degree of liquidity of the market or, in the absence of such a market, the ability and willingness of the other party to the transaction (the "counterparty") to enter into a transaction closing out the position. Therefore, there is no assurance that any position can be closed out at a time and price that is favorable to a Fund.

(5) As described below, the Funds are required to maintain assets as "cover," maintain segregated accounts or make margin payments when they take positions in Financial Instruments involving obligations to third parties (i.e., Financial Instruments other than purchased options). If a Fund is unable to close out its positions in such Financial Instruments, it might be required to continue to maintain such assets or segregated accounts or make such payments until the position expired. These requirements might impair a Fund's ability to sell a portfolio security or make an investment at a time when it would otherwise be favorable to do so, or require that the Fund sell a portfolio security at a disadvantageous time.

Cover. Positions in Financial Instruments, other than purchased options, expose the Funds to an obligation to another party. A Fund will not enter into any such transaction unless it owns (1) an offsetting ("covered") position in securities, currencies or other options, futures contracts or forward contracts, or (2) cash and liquid assets with a value, marked-to-market daily, sufficient to cover its obligations to the extent not covered as provided in (1) above. The Funds will comply with SEC guidelines regarding cover for these instruments and will, if the guidelines so require, designate cash or liquid assets as segregated in the prescribed amount as determined daily.

Assets used as cover or held as segregated cannot be sold while the position in the corresponding Financial Instrument is open unless they are replaced with other appropriate assets. As a result, the commitment of a large portion of a Fund's assets to cover or to hold as segregated could impede portfolio management or the Fund's ability to meet redemption requests or other current obligations.

Options. Each Fund may engage in certain strategies involving options to attempt to manage the risk of its investments or, in certain circumstances, for investment (e.g., as a substitute for investing in securities). A call option gives the purchaser

9

the right to buy, and obligates the writer to sell the underlying investment at the agreed-upon exercise price during the option period. A put option gives the purchaser the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy the underlying investment at the agreed-upon exercise price during the option period. Purchasers of options pay an amount, known as a premium, to the option writer in exchange for the right under the option contract. See "Options on Indexes" below with regard to cash settlement of option contracts on index values.

The purchase of call options can serve as a hedge against a price rise of the underlying security and the purchase of put options can serve as a hedge against a price decline of the underlying security. Writing call options can serve as a limited short hedge because declines in the value of the hedged investment would be offset to the extent of the premium received for writing the option. However, if the security or currency appreciates to a price higher than the exercise price of the call option, it can be expected that the option will be exercised and a Fund will be obligated to sell the security or currency at less than its market value.

Writing put options can serve as a limited long or anticipatory hedge because increases in the value of the hedged investment would be offset to the extent of the premium received for writing the option. However, if the security or currency depreciates to a price lower than the exercise price of the put option, it can be expected that the put option will be exercised and a Fund will be obligated to purchase the security or currency at more than its market value.

The value of an option position will reflect, among other things, the current market value of the underlying investment, the time remaining until expiration, the relationship of the exercise price to the market price of the underlying investment, the price volatility of the underlying investment and general market and interest rate conditions. Options that expire unexercised have no value.

A Fund may effectively terminate its right or obligation under an option by entering into a closing transaction. For example, the Fund may terminate its obligation under a call or put option that it had written by purchasing an identical call or put option, which is known as a closing purchase transaction. Conversely, the Fund may terminate a position in a put or call option it had purchased by writing an identical put or call option, which is known as a closing sale transaction. Closing transactions permit a Fund to realize profits or limit losses on an option position prior to its exercise or expiration.

Risks of Options on Securities. Options embody the possibility of large amounts of exposure, which will result in a Fund's net asset value being more sensitive to changes in the value of the related investment. A Fund may purchase or write both exchange-traded and OTC options. Exchange-traded options in the United States are issued by a clearing organization affiliated with the exchange on which the option is listed that, in effect, guarantees completion of every exchange-traded option transaction. In contrast, OTC options are contracts between a Fund and its counterparty (usually a securities dealer or a bank) with no clearing organization guarantee. Thus, when a Fund purchases an OTC option, it relies on the counterparty from whom it purchased the option to make or take delivery of the underlying investment upon exercise of the option. Failure by the counterparty to do so would result in the loss of any premium paid by a Fund as well as the loss of any expected benefit from the transaction.

The Funds' ability to establish and close out positions in options depends on the existence of a liquid market. However, there can be no assurance that such a market will exist at any particular time. Closing transactions can be made for OTC options only by negotiating directly with the counterparty, or by a transaction in the secondary market if any such market exists. There can be no assurance that a Fund will in fact be able to close out an OTC option position at a favorable price prior to expiration. In the event of insolvency of the counterparty, a Fund might be unable to close out an OTC option position at any time prior to the option's expiration. If a Fund is not able to enter into an offsetting closing transaction on an option it has written, it will be required to maintain the securities subject to the call or the liquid assets underlying the put until a closing purchase transaction can be entered into or the option expires. However, there can be no assurance that such a market will exist at any particular time.

If a Fund were unable to effect a closing transaction for an option it had purchased, it would have to exercise the option to realize any profit. The inability to enter into a closing purchase transaction for a covered call option written by a Fund could cause material losses because the Fund would be unable to sell the investment used as cover for the written option until the option expires or is exercised.

Options on Indexes. Puts and calls on indexes are similar to puts and calls on securities or futures contracts except that all settlements are in cash and changes in value depend on changes in the index in question. When a Fund writes a call on an index, it receives a premium and agrees that, prior to the expiration date, upon exercise of the call, the purchaser will receive from the Fund an amount of cash equal to the positive difference between the closing price of the index and

10

the exercise price of the call times a specified multiple ("multiplier"), which determines the total dollar value for each point of such difference. When a Fund buys a call on an index, it pays a premium and has the same rights as to such call as are indicated above. When a Fund buys a put on an index, it pays a premium and has the right, prior to the expiration date, to require the seller of the put to deliver to the Fund an amount of cash equal to the positive difference between the exercise price of the put and the closing price of the index times the multiplier. When a Fund writes a put on an index, it receives a premium and the purchaser of the put has the right, prior to the expiration date, to require the Fund to deliver to it an amount of cash equal to the positive difference between the exercise price of the put and the closing level of the index times the multiplier.

The risks of purchasing and selling options on indexes may be greater than options on securities. Because index options are settled in cash, when a Fund writes a call on an index it cannot fulfill its potential settlement obligations by delivering the underlying securities. A Fund can offset some of the risk of writing a call index option by holding a diversified portfolio of securities similar to those on which the underlying index is based. However, a Fund cannot, as a practical matter, acquire and hold a portfolio containing exactly the same securities as underlie the index and, as a result, bears a risk that the value of the securities held will vary from the value of the index.

Even if a Fund could assemble a portfolio that exactly reproduced the composition of the underlying index, it still would not be fully covered from a risk standpoint because of the "timing risk" inherent in writing index options. When an index option is exercised, the amount of cash that the holder is entitled to receive is determined by the difference between the exercise price and the closing index level. As with other kinds of options, a Fund as the call writer will not learn what it has been assigned until the next business day. The time lag between exercise and notice of assignment poses no risk for the writer of a covered call on a specific underlying security, such as common stock, because in that case the writer's obligation is to deliver the underlying security, not to pay its value as of a moment in the past. In contrast, the writer of an index call will be required to pay cash in an amount based on the difference between the closing index value on the exercise date and the exercise price. By the time a Fund learns what it has been assigned, the index may have declined. This "timing risk" is an inherent limitation on the ability of index call writers to cover their risk exposure.

If a Fund has purchased an index option and exercises it before the closing index value for that day is available, it runs the risk that the level of the underlying index may subsequently change. If such a change causes the exercised option to fall out-of-the-money, the Fund nevertheless will be required to pay the difference between the closing index value and the exercise price of the option (times the applicable multiplier) to the assigned writer.

OTC Options. Unlike exchange-traded options, which are standardized with respect to the underlying instrument, expiration date, contract size, and strike price, the terms of OTC options (options not traded on exchanges) generally are established through negotiation with the other party to the option contract. While this type of arrangement allows a Fund great flexibility to tailor the option to its needs, OTC options generally involve greater risk than exchange-traded options, which are guaranteed by the clearing organization of the exchange where they are traded.

Generally, OTC foreign currency options used by a Fund are European-style options. This means that the option is only exercisable immediately prior to its expiration. This is in contrast to American-style options, which are exercisable at any time prior to the expiration date of the option.

Futures Contracts and Options on Futures Contracts. When a Fund purchases or sells a futures contract, it incurs an obligation respectively to take or make delivery of a specified amount of the obligation underlying the contract at a specified time and price. When a Fund writes an option on a futures contract, it becomes obligated to assume a position in the futures contract at a specified exercise price at any time during the term of the option. If a Fund writes a call, on exercise it assumes a short futures position. If it writes a put, on exercise it assumes a long futures position.

The purchase of futures or call options on futures can serve as a long or an anticipatory hedge, and the sale of futures or the purchase of put options on futures can serve as a short hedge. Writing call options on futures contracts can serve as a limited short hedge, using a strategy similar to that used for writing call options on securities or indexes. Similarly, writing put options on futures contracts can serve as a limited long or anticipatory hedge.

In addition, futures strategies can be used to manage the "duration" (a measure of anticipated sensitivity to changes in interest rates, which is sometimes related to the weighted average maturity of a portfolio) and associated interest rate risk of a Fund's fixed-income portfolio. If AIM wishes to shorten the duration of a Fund's fixed-income portfolio (i.e., reduce anticipated sensitivity), the Fund may sell an appropriate debt futures contract or a call option thereon, or purchase a put option on that futures contract. If AIM wishes to lengthen the duration of a Fund's fixed-income portfolio (i.e., increase

11

anticipated sensitivity), the Fund may buy an appropriate debt futures contract or a call option thereon, or sell a put option thereon.

At the inception of a futures contract, a Fund is required to deposit "initial margin" in an amount generally equal to 10% or less of the contract value. Initial margin must also be deposited when writing a call or put option on a futures contract, in accordance with applicable exchange rules. Subsequent "variation margin" payments are made to and received from the futures broker daily as the value of the futures or written option position varies, a process known as "marking-to-market." Unlike margin in securities transactions, initial margin on futures contracts and written options on futures contracts does not represent a borrowing on margin, but rather is in the nature of a performance bond or good-faith deposit that is returned to the Fund at the termination of the transaction if all contractual obligations have been satisfied. Under certain circumstances, such as periods of high volatility, a Fund may be required to increase the level of initial margin deposits. If the Fund has insufficient cash to meet daily variation margin requirements, it might need to sell securities in order to do so at a time when such sales are disadvantageous.

Purchasers and sellers of futures contracts and options on futures can enter into offsetting closing transactions, similar to closing transactions on options, by selling or purchasing, respectively, an instrument identical to the instrument purchased or sold. However, there can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist for a particular contract at a particular time. In such event, it may not be possible to close a futures contract or options position.

Under certain circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily limits on the amount that the price of a futures contract or an option on a futures contract can vary from the previous day's settlement price; once that limit is reached, no trades may be made that day at a price beyond the limit. Daily price limits do not limit potential losses because prices could move to the daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading, thereby preventing liquidation of unfavorable positions.

If a Fund were unable to liquidate a futures contract or an option on a futures contract position due to the absence of a liquid market or the imposition of price limits, it could incur substantial losses. The Fund would continue to be subject to market risk with respect to the position. In addition, except in the case of purchased options, the Fund would continue to be required to make daily variation margin payments and might be required to continue to maintain the position being hedged by the futures contract or option or to continue to maintain cash or securities in a segregated account.

To the extent that a Fund enters into futures contracts, options on futures contracts and options on foreign currencies traded on a CFTC-regulated exchange, in each case that is not for bona fide hedging purposes (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate initial margin and premiums required to establish these positions (excluding the amount by which options are "in-the-money" at the time of purchase) may not exceed 5% of the liquidation value of the Fund's portfolio, after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any contracts the Fund has entered into. This policy does not limit to 5% the percentage of the Fund's assets that are at risk in futures contracts, options on futures contracts and currency options.

Risks of Futures Contracts and Options Thereon. The ordinary spreads at a given time between prices in the cash and futures markets (including the options on futures markets), due to differences in the natures of those markets, are subject to the following factors. First, all participants in the futures market are subject to margin deposit and maintenance requirements. Rather than meeting additional margin deposit requirements, investors may close futures contracts through offsetting transactions, which could distort the normal relationship between the cash and futures markets. Second, the liquidity of the futures market depends on participants entering into offsetting transactions rather than making or taking delivery. To the extent participants decide to make or take delivery, liquidity in the futures market could be reduced, thus producing distortion. Due to the possibility of distortion, a hedge may not be successful. Although stock index futures contracts do not require physical delivery, under extraordinary market conditions, liquidity of such futures contracts also could be reduced. Additionally, AIM may be incorrect in its expectations as to the extent of various interest rates, currency exchange rates or stock market movements or the time span within which the movements take place.

Index Futures. The risk of imperfect correlation between movements in the price of index futures and movements in the price of the securities that are the subject of a hedge increases as the composition of a Fund's portfolio diverges from the index. The price of the index futures may move proportionately more than or less than the price of the securities being hedged. If the price of the index futures moves proportionately less than the price of the securities that are the subject of the hedge, the hedge will not be fully effective. Assuming the price of the securities being hedged has moved in an unfavorable direction, as anticipated when the hedge was put into place, the Fund would be in a better position than if it

12

had not hedged at all, but not as good as if the price of the index futures moved in full proportion to that of the hedged securities. However, if the price of the securities being hedged has moved in a favorable direction, this advantage will be partially offset by movement of the price of the futures contract. If the price of the futures contract moves more than the price of the securities, the Fund will experience either a loss or a gain on the futures contract that will not be completely offset by movements in the price of the securities that are the subject of the hedge.

Where index futures are purchased in an anticipatory hedge, it is possible that the market may decline instead. If a Fund then decides not to invest in the securities at that time because of concern as to possible further market decline or for other reasons, it will realize a loss on the futures contract that is not offset by a reduction in the price of the securities it had anticipated purchasing.

Foreign Currency Hedging Strategies--Special Considerations. A Fund may use options and futures contracts on foreign currencies, as mentioned previously, and forward currency contracts, as described below, to attempt to hedge against movements in the values of the foreign currencies in which the Fund's securities are denominated or, in certain circumstances, for investment (e.g., as a substitute for investing in securities denominated in foreign currency). Currency hedges can protect against price movements in a security that a Fund owns or intends to acquire that are attributable to changes in the value of the currency in which it is denominated.

A Fund might seek to hedge against changes in the value of a particular currency when no Financial Instruments on that currency are available or such Financial Instruments are more expensive than certain other Financial Instruments. In such cases, a Fund may seek to hedge against price movements in that currency by entering into transactions using Financial Instruments on another currency or a basket of currencies, the value of which AIM believes will have a high degree of positive correlation to the value of the currency being hedged. The risk that movements in the price of the Financial Instrument will not correlate perfectly with movements in the price of the currency subject to the hedging transaction may be increased when this strategy is used.

The value of Financial Instruments on foreign currencies depends on the value of the underlying currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Because foreign currency transactions occurring in the interbank market might involve substantially larger amounts than those involved in the use of such Financial Instruments, a Fund could be disadvantaged by having to deal in the odd-lot market (generally consisting of transactions of less than $1 million) for the underlying foreign currencies at prices that are less favorable than for round lots.

There is no systematic reporting of last sale information for foreign currencies or any regulatory requirement that quotations available through dealers or other market sources be firm or revised on a timely basis. Quotation information generally is representative of very large transactions in the interbank market and thus might not reflect odd-lot transactions where rates might be less favorable. The interbank market in foreign currencies is a global, round-the-clock market. To the extent the U.S. options or futures markets are closed while the markets for the underlying currencies remain open, significant price and rate movements might take place in the underlying markets that cannot be reflected in the markets for the Financial Instruments until they reopen.

Settlement of hedging transactions involving foreign currencies might be required to take place within the country issuing the underlying currency. Thus, a Fund might be required to accept or make delivery of the underlying foreign currency in accordance with any U.S. or foreign regulations regarding the maintenance of foreign banking arrangements by U.S. residents and might be required to pay any fees, taxes, and charges associated with such delivery assessed in the issuing country.

Forward Currency Contracts and Foreign Currency Deposits. The Funds may enter into forward currency contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies for a fixed amount of U.S. dollars or another foreign currency. A forward currency contract involves an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date, which may be any fixed number of days (term) from the date of the forward currency contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time the forward currency contract is entered. Forward currency contracts are negotiated directly between currency traders (usually large commercial banks) and their customers.

Such transactions may serve as long or anticipatory hedges. For example, a Fund may purchase a forward currency contract to lock in the U.S. dollar price of a security denominated in a foreign currency that the Fund intends to acquire. Forward currency contracts may also serve as short hedges. For example, a Fund may sell a forward currency contract to lock in the U.S. dollar equivalent of the proceeds from the anticipated sale of a security or a dividend or interest payment denominated in a foreign currency.

13

The Funds may also use forward currency contracts to hedge against a decline in the value of existing investments denominated in foreign currency. Such a hedge would tend to offset both positive and negative currency fluctuations, but would not offset changes in security values caused by other factors. A Fund could also hedge the position by entering into a forward currency contract to sell another currency expected to perform similarly to the currency in which the Fund's existing investments are denominated. This type of hedge could offer advantages in terms of cost, yield or efficiency, but may not hedge currency exposure as effectively as a simple hedge against U.S. dollars. This type of hedge may result in losses if the currency used to hedge does not perform similarly to the currency in which the hedged securities are denominated.

The Funds may also use forward currency contracts in one currency or a basket of currencies to attempt to hedge against fluctuations in the value of securities denominated in a different currency if AIM anticipates that there will be a positive correlation between the two currencies.

The cost to a Fund of engaging in forward currency contracts varies with factors such as the currency involved, the length of the contract period and the market conditions then prevailing. Because forward currency contracts are usually entered into on a principal basis, no fees or commissions are involved. When a Fund enters into a forward currency contract, it relies on the counterparty to make or take delivery of the underlying currency at the maturity of the contract. Failure by the counterparty to do so would result in the loss of some or all of any expected benefit of the transaction.

As is the case with futures contracts, purchasers, and sellers of forward currency contracts can enter into offsetting closing transactions, similar to closing transactions on futures contracts, by selling or purchasing, respectively, an instrument identical to the instrument purchased or sold. Secondary markets generally do not exist for forward currency contracts, with the result that closing transactions generally can be made for forward currency contracts only by negotiating directly with the counterparty. Thus, there can be no assurance that a Fund will in fact be able to close out a forward currency contract at a favorable price prior to maturity. In addition, in the event of insolvency of the counterparty, the Fund might be unable to close out a forward currency contract. In either event, the Fund would continue to be subject to market risk with respect to the position, and would continue to be required to maintain a position in securities denominated in the foreign currency or to segregate cash or liquid assets.

The precise matching of forward currency contract amounts and the value of the securities, dividends, or interest payments involved generally will not be possible because the value of such securities, dividends, or interest payments, measured in the foreign currency, will change after the forward currency contract has been established. Thus, a Fund might need to purchase or sell foreign currencies in the spot (cash) market to the extent such foreign currencies are not covered by forward currency contracts. The projection of short-term currency market movements is extremely difficult, and the successful execution of a short-term hedging strategy is highly uncertain.

Forward currency contracts may substantially change a Fund's investment exposure to changes in currency exchange rates and could result in losses to the Fund if currencies do not perform as AIM anticipates. There is no assurance that AIM's use of forward currency contracts will be advantageous to a Fund or that it will hedge at an appropriate time.

The Funds may also purchase and sell foreign currency and invest in foreign currency deposits. Currency conversion involves dealer spreads and other costs, although commissions usually are not charged.

Combined Positions. A Fund may purchase and write options or futures in combination with each other, or in combination with futures or forward currency contracts, to manage the risk and return characteristics of its overall position. For example, a Fund may purchase a put option and write a call option on the same underlying instrument, in order to construct a combined position whose risk and return characteristics are similar to selling a futures contract. Another possible combined position would involve writing a call option at one strike price and buying a call option at a lower price, in order to reduce the risk of the written call option in the event of a substantial price increase. Because combined options positions involve multiple trades, they result in higher transaction costs.

Turnover. The Funds' options and futures activities may affect their turnover rates and brokerage commission payments. The exercise of calls or puts written by a Fund, and the sale or purchase of futures contracts, may cause it to sell or purchase related investments, thus increasing its turnover rate. Once a Fund has received an exercise notice on an option it has written, it cannot effect a closing transaction in order to terminate its obligation under the option and must deliver or receive the underlying securities at the exercise price. The exercise of puts purchased by a Fund may also cause the sale of related investments, increasing turnover. Although such exercise is within the Fund's control, holding a protective put might cause it to sell the related investments for reasons that would not exist in the absence of the put. A

14

Fund will pay a brokerage commission each time it buys or sells a put or call or purchases or sells a futures contract. Such commissions may be higher than those that would apply to direct purchases or sales.

Swaps, Caps, Floors, and Collars. The Funds are authorized to enter into swaps, caps, floors, and collars. Swaps involve the exchange by one party with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive cash flows, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments. The purchase of a cap or a floor entitles the purchaser, to the extent that a specified index exceeds in the case of a cap, or falls below in the case of a floor, a predetermined value, to receive payments on a notional principal amount from the party selling such instrument. A collar combines elements of buying a cap and selling a floor.

GOLD BULLION -- AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund may invest up to 10% at the time of purchase of its total assets directly in gold bullion. The two largest national producers of gold bullion are the Republic of South Africa and the former states of the Soviet Union. Changes in political and economic conditions affecting either country may have a direct impact on its sales of gold bullion. AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund will purchase gold bullion from, and sell gold bullion to, banks (both U.S. and foreign) and dealers who are members of, or affiliated with members of, a regulated U.S. commodities exchange, in accordance with applicable investment laws. Values of gold bullion held by the Gold & Precious Metals Fund are based upon daily quotes provided by banks or brokers dealing in such commodities.

HOLDRS -- Holding Company Depositary Receipts, or HOLDRs, are trust-issued receipts that represent a Fund's beneficial ownership of a specific group of stocks. HOLDRs involve risks similar to the risks of investing in common stock. For example, a Fund's investment will decline in value if the underlying stocks decline in value. Because HOLDRs are not subject to concentration limits, the relative weight of an individual stock may increase substantially, causing the HOLDRs to be less diverse and creating more risk.

ILLIQUID SECURITIES -- Securities which do not trade on stock exchanges or in the over-the-counter market, or have restrictions on when and how they may be sold, are generally considered to be "illiquid." An illiquid security is one that a Fund may have difficulty -- or may even be legally precluded from -- selling at any particular time. A Fund may invest in illiquid securities, including restricted securities and other investments which are not readily marketable. A Fund will not purchase any such security if the purchase would cause the Fund to invest more than 15% of its net assets, measured at the time of purchase, in illiquid securities. Repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days are considered illiquid for purposes of this restriction.

The principal risk of investing in illiquid securities is that a Fund may be unable to dispose of them at the time desired or at a reasonable price. In addition, in order to resell a restricted security, a Fund might have to bear the expense and incur the delays associated with registering the security with the SEC, and otherwise obtaining listing on a securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market.

INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERINGS ("IPOS") -- The Funds may invest a portion of their assets in securities of companies offering shares in IPOs. IPOs may have a magnified performance impact on a Fund for as long as it has a small asset base. The impact of IPOs on a Fund's performance likely will decrease as the Fund's asset size increases, which could reduce the Fund's total returns. IPOs may not be consistently available to a Fund for investment, particularly as the Fund's asset base grows. Because IPO shares frequently are volatile in price, a Fund may hold IPO shares for a very short period of time. This may increase the turnover of a Fund's portfolio and may lead to increased expenses for the Fund, such as commissions and transaction costs. By selling shares, the Funds may realize taxable gains they will subsequently distribute to shareholders. In addition, the market for IPO shares can be speculative and/or inactive for extended periods of time. The limited number of shares available for trading in some IPOs may make it more difficult for a Fund to buy or sell significant amounts of shares without an unfavorable impact on prevailing prices. Shareholders in IPO shares can be affected by substantial dilution in the value of their shares, by sales of additional shares and by concentration of control in existing management and principal shareholders.

A Fund's investment in IPO shares may include the securities of unseasoned companies (companies with less than three years of continuous operations), which present risks considerably greater than common stocks of more established companies. These companies may have limited operating histories and their prospects for profitability may be uncertain. These companies may be involved in new and evolving businesses and may be vulnerable to competition and changes in technology, markets and economic conditions. They may be more dependent on key managers and third parties and may have limited product lines.

15

INTERFUND BORROWING AND LENDING PROGRAM -- Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC dated December 21, 1999, a Fund may lend money to, and borrow money for temporary purposes from other funds advised by AIM (the "AIM Funds"). A Fund will borrow through the program only when the costs are equal to or lower than the cost of bank loans. Interfund borrowings normally extend overnight, but can have a maximum duration of seven days. Loans may be called on one day's notice. A Fund may have to borrow from a bank at a higher interest rate if an interfund loan is called or not renewed.

INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES -- To manage their daily cash positions, the Funds may invest in securities issued by other investment companies, including investment companies advised by AIM and its affiliates (pursuant to an exemptive order dated June 9, 1999) that invest in short-term debt securities and seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share ("money market funds"). The Funds also may invest in Exchange-Traded Funds ("ETFs"). ETFs are investment companies that are registered under the 1940 Act as open-end funds or Unit Investment Trusts ("UITs"). ETFs are based on specific domestic and foreign indices. ETF shares are sold and redeemed at net asset value only in large blocks. In addition, national securities exchanges list ETF shares for trading, which allows investors to purchase and sell individual ETF shares among themselves at market prices throughout the day. The 1940 Act limits investments in securities of other investment companies. These limitations include, among others, that, subject to certain exceptions: (i) A Fund may not invest more than 10% of its total assets in securities issued by other investment companies; (ii) A Fund may not invest more than 5% of its total assets in securities issued by another investment company; and (iii) and A Fund may not purchase more than 3% of the total outstanding voting stock of another investment company.

MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES -- Mortgage-backed securities are interests in pools of mortgage loans that various governmental, government-related and private organizations assemble as securities for sale to investors. Unlike most debt securities, which pay interest periodically and repay principal at maturity or on specified call dates, mortgage-backed securities make monthly payments that consist of both interest and principal payments. In effect, these payments are a "pass-through" of the monthly payments made by the individual borrowers on their mortgage loans, net of any fees paid to the issuer or guarantor of such securities. Since homeowners usually have the option of paying either part or all of the loan balance before maturity, the effective maturity of a mortgage-backed security is often shorter than is stated.

Governmental entities, private insurers, and the mortgage poolers may insure or guarantee the timely payment of interest and principal of these pools through various forms of insurance or guarantees, including individual loan, title, pool and hazard insurance and letters of credit. AIM will consider such insurance and guarantees and the creditworthiness of the issuers thereof in determining whether a mortgage-related security meets its investment quality standards. It is possible that the private insurers or guarantors will not meet their obligations under the insurance policies or guarantee arrangements.

Although the market for such securities is becoming increasingly liquid, securities issued by certain private organizations may not be readily marketable.

Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA). GNMA is the principal governmental guarantor of mortgage-related securities. GNMA is a wholly-owned corporation of the U.S. government and it falls within the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Securities issued by GNMA are considered the equivalent of treasury securities and are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. GNMA guarantees the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of FHA-insured or VA-guaranteed mortgages. GNMA does not guarantee the market value or yield of mortgage-backed securities or the value of the Fund's shares. To buy GNMA securities, a Fund may have to pay a premium over the maturity value of the underlying mortgages, which the Fund may lose if prepayment occurs.

Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA). FNMA is a government-sponsored corporation owned entirely by private stockholders. FNMA is regulated by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development. FNMA purchases conventional mortgages from a list of approved sellers and service providers, including state and federally-chartered savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, commercial banks and credit unions, and mortgage bankers. Securities issued by FNMA are agency securities, which means FNMA, but not the U.S. government, guarantees their timely payment of principal and interest.

Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC). FHLMC is a stockholder owned corporation chartered by Congress in 1970 to increase the supply of funds that mortgage lenders, such as commercial banks, mortgage bankers, savings institutions and credit unions, can make available to homebuyers and multifamily investors. FHLMC issues Participation

16

Certificates (PCs) which represent interests in conventional mortgages. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but PCs are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.

Commercial Banks, Savings And Loan Institutions, Private Mortgage Insurance Companies, Mortgage Bankers, and Other Secondary Market Issuers. Commercial banks, savings and loan institutions, private mortgage insurance companies, mortgage bankers, and other secondary market issuers also create pass-through pools of conventional mortgage loans. In addition to guaranteeing the mortgage-related security, such issuers may service and/or have originated the underlying mortgage loans. Pools created by these issuers generally offer a higher rate of interest than pools created by GNMA, FNMA & FHLMC because they are not guaranteed by a government agency.

Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities. Stripped mortgage-backed securities are derivative multiple-class mortgage-backed securities. Stripped mortgage-backed securities usually have two classes that receive different proportions of interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. Typically, one class will receive some of the interest and most of the principal, while the other class will receive most of the interest and the remaining principal. In extreme cases, one class will receive all of the interest ("interest only" or "IO" class) while the other class will receive the entire principal ("principal only" or "PO class"). The cash flow and yields on IOs and POs are extremely sensitive to the rate of principal payments (including prepayments) on the underlying mortgage loans or mortgage-backed securities. A rapid rate of principal payments may adversely affect the yield to maturity of IOs. Slower than anticipated prepayments of principal may adversely affect the yield to maturity of a PO. The yields and market risk of interest only and principal only stripped mortgage-backed securities, respectively, may be more volatile than those of other fixed income securities, including traditional mortgage-backed securities.

Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMOs). CMOs are hybrids between mortgage-backed bonds and mortgage pass-through securities. Similar to a bond, CMOs usually pay interest monthly and have a more focused range of principal payment dates than pass-through securities. While whole mortgage loans may collateralize CMOs, mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by GNMA, FHLMC, or FNMA and their income streams more typically collateralize them.

A Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit ("REMIC") is a CMO that qualifies for special tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and is an investment in certain mortgages primarily secured by interests in real property and other permitted investments.

CMOs are structured into multiple classes, each bearing a different stated maturity. Each class of CMO or REMIC certificate, often referred to as a "tranche," is issued at a specific interest rate and must be fully retired by its final distribution date. Generally, all classes of CMOs or REMIC certificates pay or accrue interest monthly. Investing in the lowest tranche of CMOs and REMIC certificates involves risks similar to those associated with investing in equity securities.

Risks of Mortgage-Backed Securities. Yield characteristics of mortgage-backed securities differ from those of traditional debt securities in a variety of ways. For example, payments of interest and principal are more frequent (usually monthly) and their interest rates are sometimes adjustable. In addition, a variety of economic, geographic, social, and other factors, such as the sale of the underlying property, refinancing, or foreclosure, can cause investors to repay the loans underlying a mortgage-backed security sooner than expected. If the prepayment rates increase, a Fund may have to reinvest its principal at a rate of interest that is lower than the rate on existing mortgage-backed securities.

ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES. These securities are interests in pools of a broad range of assets other than mortgages, such as automobile loans, computer leases, and credit card receivables. Like mortgage-backed securities, these securities are pass-through. In general, the collateral supporting these securities is of shorter maturity than mortgage loans and is less likely to experience substantial prepayments with interest rate fluctuations.

Asset-backed securities present certain risks that are not presented by mortgage-backed securities. Primarily, these securities may not have the benefit of any security interest in the related assets, which raises the possibility that recoveries on repossessed collateral may not be available to support payments on these securities. For example, credit card receivables are generally unsecured and the debtors are entitled to the protection of a number of state and federal consumer credit laws, many of which allow debtors to reduce their balances by offsetting certain amounts owed on the credit cards. Most issuers of asset-backed securities backed by automobile receivables permit the servicers of such receivables to retain possession of the underlying obligations. If the servicer were to sell these obligations to another party, there is a risk that the purchaser would acquire an interest superior to that of the holders of the related asset-backed securities. Due to the quantity of vehicles involved and requirements under state laws, asset-backed securities

17

backed by automobile receivables may not have a proper security interest in all of the obligations backing such receivables.

To lessen the effect of failures by obligors on underlying assets to make payments, the entity administering the pool of assets may agree to ensure the receipt of payments on the underlying pool in a timely fashion ("liquidity protection"). In addition, asset-backed securities may include insurance, such as guarantees, policies, or letters of credit obtained by the issuer or sponsor from third parties, for some or all of the assets in the pool ("credit support"). Delinquency or loss more than that anticipated or failure of the credit support could adversely affect the return on an investment in such a security.

The Funds may also invest in residual interests in asset-backed securities, which is the excess cash flow remaining after making required payments on the securities and paying related administrative expenses. The amount of residual cash flow resulting from a particular issue of asset-backed securities depends in part on the characteristics of the underlying assets, the coupon rates on the securities, prevailing interest rates, the amount of administrative expenses and the actual prepayment experience on the underlying assets.

REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUSTS - To the extent consistent with their investment objectives and policies, the Funds may invest in securities issued by real estate investment trusts ("REITs").

REITs are trusts which sell equity or debt securities to investors and use the proceeds to invest in real estate or interests therein. A REIT may focus on particular projects, such as apartment complexes, or geographic regions, such as the Southeastern United States, or both.

To the extent that the Funds have the ability to invest in REITs, a Fund could conceivably own real estate directly as a result of a default on the securities it owns. The Funds, therefore, may be subject to certain risks associated with the direct ownership of real estate including difficulties in valuing and trading real estate, declines in the value of real estate, risks related to general and local economic conditions, adverse changes in the climate for real estate, environmental liability risks, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, changes in zoning laws, casualty or condemnation losses, limitations on rents, changes in neighborhood values, the appeal of properties to tenants, and increases in interest rates.

In addition to the risks described above, REITs may be affected by any changes in the value of the underlying property in their portfolios. REITs are dependent upon management skill, are not diversified, and are therefore subject to the risk of financing single or a limited number of projects. REITs are also subject to heavy cash flow dependency, defaults by borrowers, self-liquidation, and the possibility of failing to maintain an exemption from the 1940 Act. Changes in interest rates may also affect the value of debt securities held by a Fund. By investing in REITs indirectly through a Fund, a shareholder will bear not only his/her proportionate share of the expenses of a Fund, but also, indirectly, similar expenses of the REITs.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- A Fund may enter into repurchase agreements ("REPOs") on debt securities that the Fund is allowed to hold in its portfolio. This is a way to invest money for short periods. A REPO is an agreement under which the Fund acquires a debt security and then resells it to the seller at an agreed-upon price and date (normally, the next business day). The repurchase price represents an interest rate effective for the short period the debt security is held by the Fund, and is unrelated to the interest rate on the underlying debt security. A repurchase agreement is often considered as a loan collateralized by securities. The collateral securities acquired by a Fund (including accrued interest earned thereon) must have a total value in excess of the value of the repurchase agreement. The collateral securities are held by a Fund's custodian bank until the repurchase agreement is completed.

The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements with financial institutions that are creditworthy under standards established by AIM. AIM must use these standards to review the creditworthiness of any financial institution that is a party to a REPO. REPOs maturing in more than seven days are considered illiquid securities. A Fund will not enter into repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days if as a result more than 15% of the Fund's net assets would be invested in these repurchase agreements and other illiquid securities.

As noted above, the Funds use REPOs as a means of investing cash for short periods of time. Although REPOs are considered to be highly liquid and comparatively low-risk, the use of REPOs does involve some risks. For example, if the other party to the agreement defaults on its obligation to repurchase the underlying security at a time when the value of the security has declined, the Fund may incur a loss on the sale of the collateral security. If the other party to the agreement becomes insolvent and subject to liquidation or reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code or other laws, a

18

court may determine that the underlying security is collateral for a loan by the Fund not within the control of the Fund and therefore the realization by the Fund on such collateral may automatically be stayed. Finally, it is possible that the Fund may not be able to substantiate its interest in the underlying security and may be deemed an unsecured creditor of the other party to the agreement.

RULE 144A SECURITIES -- A Fund also may invest in securities that can be resold to institutional investors pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"). In recent years, a large institutional market has developed for many Rule 144A Securities. Institutional investors generally cannot sell these securities to the general public but instead will often depend on an efficient institutional market in which Rule 144A Securities can readily be resold to other institutional investors, or on an issuer's ability to honor a demand for repayment. Therefore, the fact that there are contractual or legal restrictions on resale to the general public or certain institutions does not necessarily mean that a Rule 144A Security is illiquid. Institutional markets for Rule 144A Securities may provide both reliable market values for Rule 144A Securities and enable a Fund to sell a Rule 144A investment when appropriate. For this reason, the Board has concluded that if a sufficient institutional trading market exists for a given Rule 144A Security, it may be considered "liquid," and not subject to a Fund's limitations on investment in restricted securities. The Board has given AIM the day-to-day authority to determine the liquidity of Rule 144A Securities, according to guidelines approved by the Board. The principal risk of investing in Rule 144A Securities is that there may be an insufficient number of qualified institutional buyers interested in purchasing a Rule 144A Security held by a Fund, and the Fund might be unable to dispose of such security promptly or at reasonable prices.

LENDING PORTFOLIO SECURITIES-- The Funds may each lend their portfolio securities (principally to broker-dealers) where such loans are callable at any time and are continuously secured by segregated collateral equal to no less than the market value, determined daily, of the loaned securities. Such collateral will be cash, letters of credit, or debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies. Each Fund may lend portfolio securities to the extent of one-third of its total assets.

A Fund will not have the right to vote securities while they are being lent, but it can call a loan in anticipation of an important vote. The Fund would receive income in lieu of dividends on loaned securities and would, at the same time, earn interest on the loan collateral or on the investment of any cash collateral. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the loaned securities increases and the collateral is not increased accordingly, or in the event of a default by the borrower. The Fund could also experience delays and cost in gaining access to the collateral.

Any cash received as collateral for loaned securities will be invested, in accordance with a Fund's investment guidelines, in short-term money market instruments or Affiliated Money Market Funds. For purposes of determining whether a Fund is complying with its investment policies, strategies and restrictions, the Fund will consider the loaned securities as assets of the Fund, but will not consider any collateral received as a Fund asset.

SOVEREIGN DEBT -- In certain emerging countries, the central government and its agencies are the largest debtors to local and foreign banks and others. Sovereign debt involves the risk that the government, as a result of political considerations or cash flow difficulties, may fail to make scheduled payments of interest or principal and may require holders to participate in rescheduling of payments or even to make additional loans. If an emerging country government defaults on its sovereign debt, there is likely to be no legal proceeding under which the debt may be ordered repaid, in whole or in part. The ability or willingness of a foreign sovereign debtor to make payments of principal and interest in a timely manner may be influenced by, among other factors, its cash flow, the magnitude of its foreign reserves, the availability of foreign exchanges on the payment date, the debt service burden to the economy as a whole, the debtor's then-current relationship with the International Monetary Fund, and its then-current political constraints. Some of the emerging countries issuing such instruments have experienced high rates of inflation in recent years and have extensive internal debt. Among other effects, high inflation and internal debt service requirements may adversely affect the cost and availability of future domestic sovereign borrowing to finance government programs, and may have other adverse social, political, and economic consequences, including effects on the willingness of such countries to service their sovereign debt. An emerging country government's willingness and ability to make timely payments on its sovereign debt also are likely to be heavily affected by the country's balance of trade and its access to trade and other international credits. If a country's exports are concentrated in a few commodities, such country would be more significantly exposed to a decline in the international prices of one or more of such commodities. A rise in protectionism on the part of its trading partners, or unwillingness by such partners to make payment for goods in hard currency, could also adversely affect the country's

19

ability to export its products and repay its debts. Sovereign debtors may also be dependent on expected receipts from such agencies and others abroad to reduce principal and interest arrearages on their debt. However, failure by the sovereign debtor or other entity to implement economic reforms negotiated with multilateral agencies or others, to achieve specified levels of economic performance, or to make other debt payments when due, may cause third parties to terminate their commitments to provide funds to the sovereign debtor, which may further impair such debtor's willingness or ability to service its debts.

The Funds may invest in debt securities issued under the "Brady Plan" in connection with restructurings in emerging country debt markets or earlier loans. These securities, often referred to as "Brady Bonds," are, in some cases, denominated in U.S. dollars and collateralized as to principal by U.S. Treasury zero coupon bonds having the same maturity. At least one year's interest payments, on a rolling basis, are collateralized by cash or other investments. Brady Bonds are actively traded on an over-the-counter basis in the secondary market for emerging country debt securities. Brady Bonds are lower-rated bonds and highly volatile.

UNSEASONED ISSUERS -- The Funds may purchase securities in unseasoned issuers. Securities in such issuers may provide opportunities for long term capital growth. Greater risks are associated with investments in securities of unseasoned issuers than in the securities of more established companies because unseasoned issuers have only a brief operating history and may have more limited markets and financial resources. As a result, securities of unseasoned issuers tend to be more volatile than securities of more established companies.

U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES -- Each Fund may, from time to time, purchase debt securities issued by the U.S. government. These securities include Treasury bills, notes, and bonds. Treasury bills have a maturity of one year or less, Treasury notes generally have a maturity of one to ten years, and Treasury bonds generally have maturities of more than ten years.

U.S. government debt securities also include securities issued or guaranteed by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government. Some obligations of U.S. government agencies, which are established under the authority of an act of Congress, such as GNMA Participation Certificates, are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury. GNMA Certificates are mortgagebacked securities representing part ownership of a pool of mortgage loans. These loans issued by lenders such as mortgage bankers, commercial banks, and savings and loan associations are either insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Veterans Administration. A "pool" or group of such mortgages is assembled and, after being approved by GNMA, is offered to investors through securities dealers. Once approved by GNMA, the timely payment of interest and principal on each mortgage is guaranteed by GNMA and backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. The market value of GNMA Certificates is not guaranteed. GNMA Certificates are different from bonds because principal is paid back monthly by the borrower over the term of the loan rather than returned in a lump sum at maturity, as is the case with a bond. GNMA Certificates are called "pass-through" securities because both interest and principal payments (including prepayments) are passed through to the holder of the GNMA Certificate.

Other United States government debt securities, such as securities of the Federal Home Loan Banks, are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the Treasury. Others, such as bonds issued by Fannie Mae, a federally chartered private corporation, are supported only by the credit of the corporation. In the case of securities not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, a Fund must look principally to the agency issuing or guaranteeing the obligation in the event the agency or instrumentality does not meet its commitments. The U.S. government may choose not to provide financial support to U.S. government-sponsored agencies or instrumentalities if it is not legally obligated to do so. A Fund will invest in securities of such instrumentalities only when AIM is satisfied that the credit risk with respect to any such instrumentality is comparatively minimal.

WHEN-ISSUED/DELAYED DELIVERY -- The Funds normally buy and sell securities on an ordinary settlement basis. That means that the buy or sell order is sent, and a Fund actually takes delivery or gives up physical possession of the security on the "settlement date," which is three business days later. However, the Funds also may purchase and sell securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis.

When-issued or delayed delivery transactions occur when securities are purchased or sold by a Fund and payment and delivery take place at an agreed-upon time in the future. The Funds may engage in this practice in an effort to secure an advantageous price and yield. However, the yield on a comparable security available when delivery actually takes place may vary from the yield on the security at the time the when-issued or delayed delivery transaction was entered into. When a Fund engages in when-issued and delayed delivery transactions, it relies on the seller or buyer to consummate

20

the sale at the future date. If the seller or buyer fails to act as promised, that failure may result in the Fund missing the opportunity of obtaining a price or yield considered to be advantageous. No payment or delivery is made by a Fund until it receives delivery or payment from the other party to the transaction. However, fluctuation in the value of the security from the time of commitment until delivery could adversely affect a Fund.

INVESTMENTS IN ENTITIES WITH RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE FUNDS/ADVISOR -- The Funds may invest in securities issued, sponsored or guaranteed by the following types of entities or their affiliates: (i) entities that sell shares of the AIM Funds;
(ii) entities that rate or rank the AIM Funds; (iii) exchanges on which the AIM Funds buy or sell securities; and (iv) entities that provide services to the AIM Funds (e.g., custodian banks). The Funds will decide whether to invest in or sell securities issued by these entities based on the merits of the specific investment opportunity.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

The investment restrictions set forth below have been adopted by each respective Fund and, unless identified as non-fundamental policies, may not be changed without the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund. As provided in the 1940 Act, a "vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund" means the affirmative vote of the lesser of (1) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund or (2) 67% or more of the shares present at a meeting, if more than 50% of the outstanding shares are represented at the meeting in person or by proxy. Except with respect to borrowing, changes in values of a particular Fund's assets will not cause a violation of the following investment restrictions so long as percentage restrictions are observed by such Fund at the time it purchases any security. Each Fund may not:

1. with respect to 75% of the Fund's total assets, purchase the securities of any issuer (other than securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities, or securities of other investment companies) if, as a result, (i) more than 5% of the Fund's total assets would be invested in the securities of that issuer, or (ii) the Fund would hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of that issuer;

2. underwrite securities of other issuers, except insofar as it may be deemed to be an underwriter under the 1933 Act in connection with the disposition of the Fund's portfolio securities;

3. borrow money, except that the Fund may borrow money in an amount not exceeding 33 1/3% of its total assets (including the amount borrowed) less liabilities (other than borrowings);

4. issue senior securities, except as permitted under the 1940 Act;

5. lend any security or make any loan if, as a result, more than 33 1/3% of its total assets would be lent to other parties, but this limitation does not apply to the purchase of debt securities or to repurchase agreements;

6. purchase or sell physical commodities; however, this policy shall not prevent the Fund from purchasing and selling foreign currency, futures contracts, options, forward contracts, swaps, caps, floors, collars, and other financial instruments. This restriction shall not prevent AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund from investing in gold bullion;

7. purchase or sell real estate unless acquired as a result of ownership of securities or other instruments (but this shall not prevent the Fund from investing in securities or other instruments backed by real estate or securities of companies engaged in the real estate business);

8. purchase any securities of an issuer in a particular industry if as a result 25% or more of its total assets (taken at market value at the time of purchase) would be invested in securities of issuers whose principal business activities are in the same industry; provided however, that (i) AIM Energy Fund will invest 25% or more of its assets in one or more energy-related industries; (ii) AIM Financial Services Fund will invest 25% or more of its assets in one or more financial services-related industries; (iii) AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund will invest 25% or more of its assets in one or more gold and precious metals-related industries; (iv) AIM Leisure Fund will invest 25% or more of its assets in one or more leisure-related industries;
(v) AIM Technology Fund will invest 25% or more of its assets in one or more technology-related industries; and (vi) AIM Utilities Fund will invest 25% or more of its assets in one or more utilities-related industries; or

21

9. each Fund may, notwithstanding any other fundamental investment policy or limitation, invest all of its assets in the securities of a single open-end management investment company managed by AIM or an affiliate or a successor thereof, with substantially the same fundamental investment objective, policies, and limitations as the Fund.

In addition, each Fund has the following non-fundamental policies, which may be changed without shareholder approval:

A. The Fund may not sell securities short (unless it owns or has the right to obtain securities equivalent in kind and amount to the securities sold short) or purchase securities on margin, except that (i) this policy does not prevent the Fund from entering into short positions in foreign currency, futures contracts, options, forward contracts, swaps, caps, floors, collars, and other financial instruments, (ii) the Fund may obtain such short-term credits as are necessary for the clearance of transactions, and (iii) the Fund may make margin payments in connection with futures contracts, options, forward contracts, swaps, caps, floors, collars, and other financial instruments.

B. The Fund may borrow money only from a bank or from an open-end management investment company managed by AIM or an affiliate or a successor thereof for temporary or emergency purposes (not for leveraging or investing) or by engaging in reverse repurchase agreements with any party (reverse repurchase agreements will be treated as borrowings for purposes of fundamental limitation (3)).

C. The Fund does not currently intend to purchase any security if, as a result, more than 15% of its net assets would be invested in securities that are deemed to be illiquid because they are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale or because they cannot be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business at approximately the prices at which they are valued.

D. The Fund may invest in securities issued by other investment companies to the extent that such investments are consistent with the Fund's investment objective and policies and permissible under the 1940 Act.

E. AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund may invest up to 10% at the time of purchase of its total assets in gold bullion.

F. With respect to fundamental restriction (8) above, (i) energy-related industries include, but are not limited to, oil companies, oil and gas exploration companies, natural gas pipeline companies, refinery companies, energy conservation companies, coal companies, alternative energy companies, and innovative energy technology companies; (ii) financial services-related industries include, but are not limited to, banks (regional and money-centers), insurance companies (life, property and casualty, and multiline), investment and miscellaneous industries (asset managers, brokerage firms, and government-sponsored agencies), and suppliers to financial services companies; (iii) gold and precious metals-related industries include, but are not limited to, those involved in exploring for, mining, processing, or dealing and investing in gold, gold bullion, silver, platinum, palladium, and diamonds;
(iv) leisure-related industries include, but are not limited to, hotels/gaming, publishing, advertising, beverages, audio/video, broadcasting-radio/TV, cable & satellite operators, cable & satellite programmers, motion pictures & TV, recreation services/entertainment, retail, and toys; (v) real estate-related industries include, but are not limited to, real estate brokers, home builders or real estate developers, companies with substantial real estate holdings, and companies with significant involvement in the real estate industry; (vi) technology-related industries include, but are not limited to, various applied technologies, hardware, software, semiconductors, telecommunications equipment and services, and service-related companies in information technology; and (vii) utilities-related industries include, but are not limited to, companies that produce, generate, transmit, or distribute natural gas or electricity, as well as companies that provide telecommunications services, including local, long distance and wireless.

G. The Fund may not acquire any securities of registered open-end investment companies or registered unit investment trusts in reliance on Sections 12(d)(1)(F) or 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act.

In addition, with respect to a Fund that may invest in municipal securities, the following non-fundamental policy applies, which may be changed without shareholder approval:

Each state (including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico), territory and possession of the United States, each political subdivision, agency, instrumentality, and authority thereof, and each multi-state agency of which a state is a member is a separate "issuer." When the assets and revenues of an agency, authority, instrumentality, or other political subdivision are separate from the government creating the subdivision and the security is backed

22

only by assets and revenues of the subdivision, such subdivision would be deemed to be the sole issuer. Similarly, in the case of an Industrial Development Bond or Private Activity bond, if that bond is backed only by the assets and revenues of the non-governmental user, then that non-governmental user would be deemed to be the sole issuer. However, if the creating government or another entity guarantees a security, then to the extent that the value of all securities issued or guaranteed by that government or entity and owned by a Fund exceeds 10% of the Fund's total assets, the guarantee would be considered a separate security and would be treated as issued by that government or entity. With respect to a Fund that is not a money market fund, securities issued or guaranteed by a bank or subject to financial guaranty insurance are not subject to the limitations set forth in the preceding sentence.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER -- AIM Energy Fund's portfolio turnover rate decreased from 123% in 2004 to 45% in 2005. AIM Technology Fund's portfolio turnover rate decreased from 141% in 2004 to 92% in 2005. AIM Utilities Fund's portfolio turnover rate decreased from 101% in 2004 to 33% in 2005. Each of the Funds was involved in mergers on November 24, 2003, that resulted in the acquisition of the assets of one or more funds. The sale of the acquired securities and the resulting purchases of new portfolio securities contributed to the high portfolio turnover during the fiscal year ended 2004. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, purchases and sale of portfolio securities were not affected by such circumstances; and therefore the portfolio turnover for each Fund decreased significantly.

POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR DISCLOSURE OF FUND HOLDINGS

The Board has adopted policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of the Funds' portfolio holdings (the "Holdings Disclosure Policy"). AIM and the Board may amend the Holdings Disclosure Policy at any time without prior notice. Details of the Holdings Disclosure Policy and a description of the basis on which employees of AIM and its affiliates may release information about portfolio securities in certain contexts are provided below.

Generally, employees of AIM and its affiliates may not disclose such portfolio holdings until one day after they have been posted on http://www.aiminvestments.com. You may also obtain the publicly available portfolio holdings information described above by contacting us at 1-800-959-4246.

SELECTIVE DISCLOSURE OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS PURSUANT TO NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT. Employees of AIM and its affiliates may disclose non-public full portfolio holdings on a selective basis only if the Internal Compliance Controls Committee (the "ICCC") of A I M Management Group Inc. ("AIM Management") approves the parties to whom disclosure


/1/ To locate the Fund's portfolio holdings information on, www.aiminvestments.com, click on the Products and Performance tab, then click on the Mutual Funds link, then click on the Fund Overview link and select the Fund from the drop down menu. Links to the Fund's portfolio holdings are located in the upper right side of this website page.

23

of non-public full portfolio holdings will be made. The ICCC must determine that the proposed selective disclosure will be made for legitimate business purposes of the applicable Fund and address any perceived conflicts of interest between shareholders of such Fund and AIM or its affiliates as part of granting its approval.

The Board exercises continuing oversight of the disclosure of Fund portfolio holdings by (1) overseeing the implementation and enforcement of the Holdings Disclosure Policy and the AIM Funds Code of Ethics by the Chief Compliance Officer (or her designee) of AIM and the AIM Funds and (2) considering reports and recommendations by the Chief Compliance Officer concerning any material compliance matters (as defined in Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act and Rule 206(4)-7 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended) that may arise in connection with the Holdings Disclosure Policy. Pursuant to the Holdings Disclosure Policy, the Board reviews the types of situations in which AIM provides selective disclosure and approves situations involving perceived conflicts of interest between shareholders of the applicable Fund and AIM or its affiliates brought to the Board's attention by AIM.

AIM discloses non-public full portfolio holdings information to the following persons in connection with the day-to-day operations and management of the AIM Funds:

. Attorneys and accountants;
. Securities lending agents;
. Lenders to the AIM Funds;
. Rating and rankings agencies;
. Persons assisting in the voting of proxies;
. AIM Funds' custodians;
. The AIM Funds' transfer agent(s) (in the event of a redemption in kind);
. Pricing services, market makers, or other persons who provide systems or software support in connection with AIM Funds' operations (to determine the price of securities held by an AIM Fund);
. Financial printers;
. Brokers identified by the AIM Funds' portfolio management team who provide execution and research services to the team; and
. Analysts hired to perform research and analysis to the AIM Funds' portfolio management team.

In many cases, AIM will disclose current portfolio holdings on a daily basis to these persons. In these situations, AIM has entered into non-disclosure agreements which provide that the recipient of the portfolio holdings will maintain the confidentiality of such portfolio holdings and will not trade on such information ("Non-disclosure Agreements"). Please refer to Appendix B for a list of examples of persons to whom AIM provides non-public portfolio holdings on an ongoing basis.

AIM will also disclose non-public portfolio holdings information if such disclosure is required by applicable laws, rules or regulations, or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over AIM and its affiliates or the Funds.

The Holdings Disclosure Policy provides that AIM will not request, receive or accept any compensation (including compensation in the form of the maintenance of assets in any Fund or other mutual fund or account managed by AIM or one of its affiliates) for the selective disclosure of portfolio holdings information.

DISCLOSURE OF CERTAIN PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS AND RELATED INFORMATION WITHOUT NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT. AIM and its affiliates that provide services to the Funds, and the Funds' subadvisors, if applicable, and each of their employees may receive or have access to portfolio holdings as part of the day to day operations of the Funds.

From time to time, employees of AIM and its affiliates may express their views orally or in writing on one or more of the Funds' portfolio securities or may state that a Fund has recently purchased or sold, or continues to own, one or more securities. The securities subject to these views and statements may be ones that were purchased or sold since a Fund's most recent quarter-end and therefore may not be reflected on the list of the Fund's most recent quarter-end portfolio holdings disclosed on the website. Such views and statements may be made to various persons, including members of the press, brokers and other financial intermediaries that sell shares of the Funds, shareholders in the applicable Fund, persons considering investing in the applicable Fund or representatives of such shareholders or potential shareholders, such as fiduciaries of a 401(k) plan or a trust and their advisers, and other entities for which AIM or its affiliates provides

24

or may provide investment advisory services. The nature and content of the views and statements provided to each of these persons may differ.

From time to time, employees of AIM and its affiliates also may provide oral or written information ("portfolio commentary") about a Fund, including, but not limited to, how the Fund's investments are divided among various sectors, industries, countries, investment styles and capitalization sizes, and among stocks, bonds, currencies and cash, security types, bond maturities, bond coupons and bond credit quality ratings. This portfolio commentary may also include information on how these various weightings and factors contributed to Fund performance. AIM may also provide oral or written information ("statistical information") about various financial characteristics of a Fund or its underlying portfolio securities including, but not limited to, alpha, beta, R-squared, coefficient of determination, duration, maturity, information ratio, sharpe ratio, earnings growth, payout ratio, price/book value, projected earnings growth, return on equity, standard deviation, tracking error, weighted average quality, market capitalization, percent debt to equity, price to cash flow, dividend yield or growth, default rate, portfolio turnover, and risk and style characteristics. This portfolio commentary and statistical information about a Fund may be based on the Fund's portfolio as of the most recent quarter-end or the end of some other interim period, such as month-end. The portfolio commentary and statistical information may be provided to various persons, including those described in the preceding paragraph. The nature and content of the information provided to each of these persons may differ.

DISCLOSURE OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS BY TRADERS. Additionally, employees of AIM and its affiliates may disclose one or more of the portfolio securities of a Fund when purchasing and selling securities through broker-dealers, requesting bids on securities, obtaining price quotations on securities, or in connection with litigation involving the Funds' portfolio securities. AIM does not enter into formal Non-disclosure Agreements in connection with these situations; however, the Funds would not continue to conduct business with a person who AIM believed was misusing the disclosed information.

DISCLOSURE OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS OF OTHER AIM-MANAGER PRODUCTS. AIM and its affiliates manage products sponsored by companies other than AIM, including investment companies, offshore funds, and separate accounts. In many cases, these other products are managed in a similar fashion to certain AIM Funds and thus have similar portfolio holdings. The sponsors of these other products managed by AIM and its affiliates may disclose the portfolio holdings of their products at different times than AIM discloses portfolio holdings for the AIM Funds.

AIM provides portfolio holdings information for portfolios of AIM Variable Insurance Funds (the "Insurance Funds") to insurance companies whose variable annuity and variable life insurance accounts invest in the Insurance Funds ("Insurance Companies"). AIM may disclose portfolio holdings information for the Insurance Funds to Insurance Companies with which AIM has entered into Non-disclosure Agreements up to five days prior to the scheduled dates for AIM's disclosure of similar portfolio holdings information for other AIM Funds on http://www.aiminvestments.com. AIM provides portfolio holdings information for the Insurance Funds to such Insurance Companies to allow them to disclose this information on their websites at approximately the same time that AIM discloses portfolio holdings information for the other AIM Funds on its website. AIM manages the Insurance Funds in a similar fashion to certain other AIM Funds and thus the Insurance Funds and such other AIM Funds have similar portfolio holdings. AIM does not disclose the portfolio holdings information for the Insurance Funds on its website, and not all Insurance Companies disclose this information on their websites.

AIM may from time to time waive or reduce its fee. Voluntary fee waivers or reductions may be rescinded at any time without further notice to investors. During periods of voluntary fee waivers or reductions, AIM will retain its ability to be reimbursed for such fee prior to the end of each fiscal year. Contractual fee waivers or reductions set forth in the Fee Table in a Prospectus may not be terminated or amended to the Fund's detriment during the period stated in the agreement between AIM and a Fund.

29

AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of advisory fees payable by the Funds. The amount of the waiver will equal 25% of the advisory fee AIM receives from the Affiliated Money Market Funds as a result of a Fund's investment of uninvested cash in an Affiliated Money Market Fund. Termination of this agreement requires approval by the Board. See "INVESTMENTS, POLICIES AND RISKS - Other Investment Company Securities."

AIM has contractually agreed each to waive advisory fees or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit (i) the Funds' (excluding AIM Technology Fund) Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding certain items each discussed below) to 1.90%, 1.90%, 2.65%, 2.65%, 2.15% and 2.15% on Investor Class, Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R shares and Institutional Class shares, as applicable, respectively; (ii) AIM Technology Fund's Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding certain items each discussed below) to 1.55%, 1.55%, 2.30%, 2.30%, and 1.30% on Investor Class, Class A, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, respectively. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses to exceed the caps stated above: (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expense on short sales; (iv) extraordinary items (these are expenses that are not anticipated to arise from the Funds' day-to-day operations), as defined in the Financial Accounting Standard's Board's Generally Accepted Accounting Principles or as approved by the Funds' Board of Trustees; (v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the Funds' Board of Trustees; (vi) expenses that the Funds' have incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement; and (vii) Rule 12b-1 fees. Currently, the only expense offset arrangements from which the Funds benefits are in the form of credits that each Fund receives from banks where the Fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. Those credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by each Fund. Such contractual fee waivers or reductions are set forth in the Fee Table to the Funds' Prospectus and may not be terminated or amended to the Funds' detriment during the period stated in the agreement between AIM and the Funds.

SECURITIES LENDING ARRANGEMENTS. If a Fund engages in securities lending, AIM will provide the Fund investment advisory services and related administrative services. The advisory agreement describes the administrative services to be rendered by AIM if a Fund engages in securities lending activities, as well as the compensation AIM may receive for such administrative services. Services to be provided include: (a) overseeing participation in the securities lending program to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory and investment guidelines; (b) assisting the securities lending agent or principal (the "agent") in determining which specific securities are available for loan; (c) monitoring the agent to ensure that securities loans are effected in accordance with AIM's instructions and with procedures adopted by the Board; (d) preparing appropriate periodic reports for, and seeking appropriate approvals from, the Board with respect to securities lending activities; (e) responding to agent inquiries; and (f) performing such other duties as may be necessary.

AIM's compensation for advisory services rendered in connection with securities lending is included in the advisory fee schedule. As compensation for the related administrative services AIM will provide, a lending Fund will pay AIM a fee equal to 25% of the net monthly interest or fee income retained or paid to the Fund from such activities. AIM currently intends to waive such fee, and has agreed to seek Board approval prior to its receipt of all or a portion of such fee.

PORTFOLIO MANAGERS

Appendix C contains the following information regarding the portfolio managers identified in each Fund's prospectus:

. The dollar range of the manager's investments in each Fund.

. A description of the manager's compensation structure.

. Information regarding other accounts managed by the manager and potential conflicts of interest that might arise from the management of multiple accounts.

ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT

AIM and the Trust have entered into a Master Administrative Services Agreement pursuant to which AIM may perform or arrange for the provision of certain accounting and other administrative services to the Fund which are not required to be performed by AIM under the advisory agreement. The Master Administrative Services Agreement provides that it will remain in effect and continue from year to year only if such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the

30

Trust's Board, including the independent trustees, by votes cast in person at a meeting called for such purpose. Under the Master Administrative Services Agreement, AIM is entitled to receive from the Fund reimbursement of its costs or such reasonable compensation as may be approved by the Board.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements and Summary of Independent Written Fee Evaluation

The Board oversees the management of each Fund and, as required by law, determines annually whether to approve the continuance of each Fund's advisory agreement with AIM. Based upon the recommendation of the Investments Committee of the Board, which is comprised solely of independent trustees, at a meeting held on June 30, 2005, the Board, including all of the independent trustees, approved the continuance of the advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") between each Fund and AIM for another year, effective July 1, 2005.

The Board considered the factors discussed below in evaluating the fairness and reasonableness of each Fund's Advisory Agreement at the meeting on June 30, 2005 and as part of the Board's ongoing oversight of each Fund. In their deliberations, the Board and the independent trustees did not identify any particular factor that was controlling, and each trustee attributed different weights to the various factors.

One of the responsibilities of the Senior Officer of the Funds, who is independent of AIM and AIM's affiliates, is to manage the process by which the Funds' proposed management fees are negotiated to ensure that they are negotiated in a manner which is at arm's length and reasonable. To that end, the Senior Officer must either supervise a competitive bidding process or prepare an independent written evaluation. The Senior Officer has recommended an independent written evaluation in lieu of a competitive bidding process and, upon the direction of the Board, has prepared such an independent written evaluation. Such written evaluation also considered certain of the factors discussed below. In addition, as discussed below, the Senior Officer made certain recommendations to the Board in connection with such written evaluation.

The discussion below serves as a summary of the Senior Officer's independent written evaluation and recommendations to the Board in connection therewith, as well as a discussion of the material factors and the conclusions with respect thereto that formed the basis for the Board's approval of each Fund's Advisory Agreement. After consideration of all of the factors below and based on its informed business judgment, the Board determined that each Fund's Advisory Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders and that the compensation to AIM under each Fund's Advisory Agreement is fair and reasonable and would have been obtained through arm's length negotiations.

AIM ENERGY FUND

. The nature and extent of the advisory services to be provided by AIM. The Board reviewed the services to be provided by AIM under the Advisory Agreement. Based on such review, the Board concluded that the range of services to be provided by AIM under the Advisory Agreement was appropriate and that AIM currently is providing services in accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreement.

. The quality of services to be provided by AIM. The Board reviewed the credentials and experience of the officers and employees of AIM who will provide investment advisory services to the Fund. In reviewing the qualifications of AIM to provide investment advisory services, the Board reviewed the qualifications of AIM's investment personnel and considered such issues as AIM's portfolio and product review process, various back office support functions provided by AIM and AIM's equity and fixed income trading operations. Based on the review of these and other factors, the Board concluded that the quality of services to be provided by AIM was appropriate and that AIM currently is providing satisfactory services in accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreement.

. The performance of the Fund relative to comparable funds. The Board reviewed the performance of the Fund during the past one, three and five calendar years against the performance of funds advised by other advisors with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund. The Board noted that the Fund's performance for the one and five year periods was at or above the median performance of such comparable funds and below such median performance for the three year period. The Board also noted that AIM began serving as investment

34

advisor to the Fund in November 2003. Based on this review, the Board concluded that no changes should be made to the Fund and that it was not necessary to change the Fund's portfolio management team at this time.

. The performance of the Fund relative to indices. The Board reviewed the performance of the Fund during the past one, three and five calendar year against the performance of the Lipper Natural Resources Fund Index. The Board noted that the Fund's performance for the one and three year periods was comparable to the performance of such Index and above such Index for the five year period. The Board also noted that AIM began serving as investment advisor to the Fund in November 2003. Based on this review, the Board concluded that no changes should be made to the Fund and that it was not necessary to change the Fund's portfolio management team at this time.

. Meeting with the Fund's portfolio managers and investment personnel. With respect to the Fund, the Board is meeting periodically with such Fund's portfolio managers and/or other investment personnel and believes that such individuals are competent and able to continue to carry out their responsibilities under the Advisory Agreement.

. Overall performance of AIM. The Board considered the overall performance of AIM in providing investment advisory and portfolio administrative services to the Fund and concluded that such performance was satisfactory.

. Fees relative to those of clients of AIM with comparable investment strategies. The Board reviewed the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement. The Board noted that this rate was lower than the advisory fee rate for an offshore fund for which an AIM affiliate serves as investment advisor with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund. The Board noted that AIM has agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund and to limit the Fund's total operating expenses, as discussed below. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable.

. Fees relative to those of comparable funds with other advisors. The Board reviewed the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement. The Board compared effective contractual advisory fee rates at a common asset level and noted that the Fund's rate was above the median rate of the funds advised by other advisors with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund that the Board reviewed. The Board noted that AIM has agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund and to limit the Fund's total operating expenses, as discussed below. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable.

. Expense limitations and fee waivers. The Board noted that AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund through June 30, 2006 to the extent necessary so that the advisory fees payable by the Fund do not exceed a specified maximum advisory fee rate, which maximum rate includes breakpoints and is based on net asset levels. The Board considered the contractual nature of this fee waiver and noted that it remains in effect through June 30, 2006. The Board noted that AIM has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or limit expenses of the Fund through March 31, 2006 in an amount necessary to limit total annual operating expenses to a specified percentage of average daily net assets for each class of the Fund. The Board also noted that AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or limit expenses of the Fund in an amount necessary to limit total annual operating expenses to a specified percentage of average daily net assets for each class of the Fund that is lower than the contractual agreement. The Board considered the contractual and voluntary nature of these fee waivers/expense limitations and noted that the contractual agreement remains in effect through March 31, 2006 and the voluntary agreement can be terminated at any time by AIM without further notice to investors. The Board considered the effect these fee waivers/expense limitations would have on the Fund's estimated expenses and concluded that the levels of fee waivers/expense limitations for the Fund were fair and reasonable.

. Breakpoints and economies of scale. The Board reviewed the structure of the Fund's advisory fee under the Advisory Agreement, noting that it includes six breakpoints. The Board reviewed the level of the Fund's advisory fees, and noted that such fees, as a percentage of the Fund's net assets, would decrease as net assets increase because the Advisory Agreement includes breakpoints. The Board noted that, due to the Fund's current asset levels and the way in which the advisory fee breakpoints have been structured, the Fund has yet to benefit from the breakpoints. The Board noted that AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund through

35

June 30, 2006 to the extent necessary so that the advisory fees payable by the Fund do not exceed a specified maximum advisory fee rate, which maximum rate includes breakpoints and is based on net asset levels. The Board concluded that the Fund's fee levels under the Advisory Agreement therefore would reflect economies of scale at higher asset levels and that it was not necessary to change the advisory fee breakpoints in the Fund's advisory fee schedule.

. Investments in affiliated money market funds. The Board also took into account the fact that uninvested cash and cash collateral from securities lending arrangements (collectively, "cash balances") of the Fund may be invested in money market funds advised by AIM pursuant to the terms of an SEC exemptive order. The Board found that the Fund may realize certain benefits upon investing cash balances in AIM advised money market funds, including a higher net return, increased liquidity, increased diversification or decreased transaction costs. The Board also found that the Fund will not receive reduced services if it invests its cash balances in such money market funds. The Board noted that, to the extent the Fund invests in affiliated money market funds, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the advisory fees it receives from the Fund attributable to such investment. The Board further determined that the proposed securities lending program and related procedures with respect to the lending Fund is in the best interests of the lending Fund and its respective shareholders. The Board therefore concluded that the investment of cash collateral received in connection with the securities lending program in the money market funds according to the procedures is in the best interests of the lending Fund and its respective shareholders.

. Independent written evaluation and recommendations of the Fund's Senior Officer. The Board noted that, upon their direction, the Senior Officer of the Fund had prepared an independent written evaluation in order to assist the Board in determining the reasonableness of the proposed management fees of the AIM Funds, including the Fund. The Board noted that the Senior Officer's written evaluation had been relied upon by the Board in this regard in lieu of a competitive bidding process. In determining whether to continue the Advisory Agreement for the Fund, the Board considered the Senior Officer's written evaluation and the recommendation made by the Senior Officer to the Board that the Board consider implementing a process to assist them in more closely monitoring the performance of the AIM Funds. The Board concluded that it would be advisable to implement such a process as soon as reasonably practicable.

. Profitability of AIM and its affiliates. The Board reviewed information concerning the profitability of AIM's (and its affiliates') investment advisory and other activities and its financial condition. The Board considered the overall profitability of AIM, as well as the profitability of AIM in connection with managing the Fund. The Board noted that AIM's operations remain profitable, although increased expenses in recent years have reduced AIM's profitability. Based on the review of the profitability of AIM's and its affiliates' investment advisory and other activities and its financial condition, the Board concluded that the compensation to be paid by the Fund to AIM under its Advisory Agreement was not excessive.

. Benefits of soft dollars to AIM. The Board considered the benefits realized by AIM as a result of brokerage transactions executed through "soft dollar" arrangements. Under these arrangements, brokerage commissions paid by the Fund and/or other funds advised by AIM are used to pay for research and execution services. This research is used by AIM in making investment decisions for the Fund. The Board concluded that such arrangements were appropriate.

. AIM's financial soundness in light of the Fund's needs. The Board considered whether AIM is financially sound and has the resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Advisory Agreement, and concluded that AIM has the financial resources necessary to fulfill its obligations under the Advisory Agreement.

. Historical relationship between the Fund and AIM. In determining whether to continue the Advisory Agreement for the Fund, the Board also considered the prior relationship between AIM and the Fund, as well as the Board's knowledge of AIM's operations, and concluded that it was beneficial to maintain the current relationship, in part, because of such knowledge. The Board also reviewed the general nature of the non-investment advisory services currently performed by AIM and its affiliates, such as administrative, transfer agency and distribution services, and the fees received by AIM and its affiliates for performing such services. In addition to reviewing such services, the trustees also considered the organizational structure employed by AIM and its affiliates to

36

provide those services. Based on the review of these and other factors, the Board concluded that AIM and its affiliates were qualified to continue to provide non-investment advisory services to the Fund, including administrative, transfer agency and distribution services, and that AIM and its affiliates currently are providing satisfactory non-investment advisory services.

. Other factors and current trends. In determining whether to continue the Advisory Agreement for the Fund, the Board considered the fact that AIM, along with others in the mutual fund industry, is subject to regulatory inquiries and litigation related to a wide range of issues. The Board also considered the governance and compliance reforms being undertaken by AIM and its affiliates, including maintaining an internal controls committee and retaining an independent compliance consultant, and the fact that AIM has undertaken to cause the Fund to operate in accordance with certain governance policies and practices. The Board concluded that these actions indicated a good faith effort on the part of AIM to adhere to the highest ethical standards, and determined that the current regulatory and litigation environment to which AIM is subject should not prevent the Board from continuing the Advisory Agreement for the Fund.

The Board also noted that AIM began serving as investment advisor to the Fund in November 2003. The Board noted that AIM has recently made changes to the Fund's portfolio management team, which appear to be producing encouraging early results but need more time to be evaluated before a conclusion can be made that the changes have addressed the Fund's under-performance. Based on this review, the Board concluded that no changes should be made to the Fund and that it was not necessary to change the Fund's portfolio management team at this time.

. The performance of the Fund relative to indices. The Board reviewed the performance of the Fund during the past one, three and five calendar years against the performance of the Lipper Financial Services Fund Index.

. Overall performance of AIM. The Board considered the overall performance of AIM in providing investment advisory and portfolio administrative services to the Fund and concluded that such performance was satisfactory.

. Fees relative to those of clients of AIM with comparable investment strategies. The Board reviewed the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement. The Board noted that this rate (i) was the same as the initial advisory fee rate for a variable insurance fund advised by AIM and offered to insurance company separate accounts with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund, although there were no breakpoints in the advisory fee schedule applicable to the variable insurance fund; and (ii) was higher than the sub-advisory fee rates for an unaffiliated mutual fund for which an AIM affiliate serves as sub-advisor, although the total management fees paid by such unaffiliated mutual fund were higher than the advisory fee rate for the Fund. The Board noted that AIM has agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund and to limit the Fund's total operating expenses, as discussed below. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable.

. Fees relative to those of comparable funds with other advisors. The Board reviewed the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement. The Board compared effective contractual advisory fee rates at a common asset level and noted that the Fund's rate was comparable to the median rate of the funds advised by other advisors with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund that the Board reviewed.

The Board noted that AIM has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or limit expenses of the Fund through March 31, 2006 in an amount necessary to limit total annual operating expenses to a specified percentage of average daily net assets for each class of the Fund. The Board also noted that AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive fees and/or limit expenses of the Fund in an amount necessary to limit total annual operating expenses to a specified percentage of average daily net assets for each class of the Fund that is lower than the contractual agreement. The Board considered the contractual and voluntary nature of these fee waivers/expense limitations and noted that the contractual agreement remains in effect through March 31, 2006 and the voluntary agreement can be terminated at any time by AIM without further notice to investors. The Board considered the effect these fee waivers/expense limitations would have on the Fund's estimated expenses and concluded that the levels of fee waivers/expense limitations for the Fund were fair and reasonable.

. Breakpoints and economies of scale. The Board reviewed the structure of the Fund's advisory fee under the Advisory Agreement, noting that it includes six breakpoints.

The Board noted that, due to the Fund's current asset levels and the way in which the advisory fee breakpoints have been structured, the Fund has yet to fully benefit from the breakpoints. The Board noted that AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund through June 30, 2006 to the extent necessary so that the advisory fees payable by the Fund do not exceed a specified maximum advisory fee rate, which maximum rate includes breakpoints and is based on net asset levels.

. Investments in affiliated money market funds. The Board also took into account the fact that uninvested cash and cash collateral from securities lending arrangements (collectively, "cash balances") of the Fund may be invested in money market funds advised by AIM pursuant to the terms of an SEC exemptive order. The Board found that the Fund may realize certain benefits upon investing cash balances in AIM advised money market funds, including a higher net return, increased liquidity, increased diversification or decreased transaction costs. The Board also found that the Fund will not receive reduced services if it invests its cash balances in such money

38

market funds. The Board noted that, to the extent the Fund invests in affiliated money market funds, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the advisory fees it receives from the Fund attributable to such investment. The Board further determined that the proposed securities lending program and related procedures with respect to the lending Fund is in the best interests of the lending Fund and its respective shareholders. The Board therefore concluded that the investment of cash collateral received in connection with the securities lending program in the money market funds according to the procedures is in the best interests of the lending Fund and its respective shareholders.

. Independent written evaluation and recommendations of the Fund's Senior Officer. The Board noted that, upon their direction, the Senior Officer of the Fund had prepared an independent written evaluation in order to assist the Board in determining the reasonableness of the proposed management fees of the AIM Funds, including the Fund.

The Board noted that AIM has recently made changes to the Fund's portfolio management team, which appear to be producing encouraging early results but need more time to be evaluated before a conclusion can be made that the changes have addressed the Fund's under-performance. The Board also considered the Senior Officer's recommendation that the Board consider an additional advisory fee waiver for the Fund due to the Fund's under-performance. The Board concluded that such a fee waiver was not appropriate for the Fund at this time and that, rather than requesting such a fee waiver from AIM, the Board should closely monitor the Fund's performance under the new portfolio management team.

. Profitability of AIM and its affiliates. The Board reviewed information concerning the profitability of AIM's (and its affiliates') investment advisory and other activities and its financial condition. The Board considered the overall profitability of AIM, as well as the profitability of AIM in connection with managing the Fund.

The Board reviewed the level of the Fund's advisory fees, and noted that such fees, as a percentage of the Fund's net assets, would decrease as net assets increase because the Advisory Agreement includes breakpoints. The Board noted that, due to the Fund's current asset levels and the way in which the advisory fee breakpoints have been structured, the Fund has yet to benefit from the breakpoints. The Board noted that AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund through June 30, 2006 to the extent necessary so that the advisory fees payable by the Fund do not exceed a specified maximum advisory fee rate, which maximum rate includes breakpoints and is based on net asset levels.

The Board also considered the governance and compliance reforms being undertaken by AIM and its affiliates, including maintaining an internal controls committee and retaining an independent compliance consultant, and the fact that AIM has undertaken to cause the Fund to operate in accordance with certain governance policies and practices. The Board concluded that these actions indicated a good faith effort on the part of AIM to adhere to the highest ethical standards, and determined that the current regulatory and litigation environment to which AIM is subject should not prevent the Board from continuing the Advisory Agreement for the Fund.

AIM UTILITIES FUND

. The nature and extent of the advisory services to be provided by AIM. The Board reviewed the services to be provided by AIM under the Advisory Agreement. Based on such review, the Board concluded that the range of services to be provided by AIM under the Advisory Agreement was appropriate and that AIM currently is providing services in accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreement.

. The quality of services to be provided by AIM. The Board reviewed the credentials and experience of the officers and employees of AIM who will provide investment advisory services to the Fund. In reviewing the qualifications of AIM to provide investment advisory services, the Board reviewed the qualifications of AIM's investment personnel and considered such issues as AIM's portfolio and product review process, various back office support functions provided by AIM and AIM's equity and fixed income trading operations. Based on the review of these and other factors, the Board concluded that the quality of services to be provided by AIM was appropriate and that AIM currently is providing satisfactory services in accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreement.

. The performance of the Fund relative to comparable funds. The Board reviewed the performance of the Fund during the past one, three and five calendar years against the performance of funds advised by other advisors with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund. The Board noted that the Fund's performance for the three and five year periods was below the median performance of such comparable funds and above such median performance for the one year period. The Board also noted that AIM began serving as investment advisor to the Fund in November 2003. Based on this review and after taking account of all of the other factors that the Board considered in determining whether to continue the Advisory Agreement for the Fund, the Board concluded that no changes should be made to the Fund and that it was not necessary to change the Fund's portfolio management team at this time. However, due to the Fund's under-performance, the Board also concluded that it would be appropriate for management and the Board to continue to closely monitor the performance of the Fund.

. The performance of the Fund relative to indices. The Board reviewed the performance of the Fund during the past one, three and five calendar years against the performance of the Lipper Science & Technology Fund Index. The Board noted that the Fund's performance in such periods was below the performance of such Index. The Board also noted that AIM began serving as investment advisor to the Fund in November 2003. Based on this review and after taking account of all of the other factors that the Board considered in determining whether to continue the Advisory Agreement for the Fund, the Board concluded that no changes should be made to the Fund and that it was not necessary to change the Fund's portfolio management team at this time. However, due to the Fund's under-performance, the Board also concluded that it would be appropriate for management and the Board to continue to closely monitor the performance of the Fund.

. Meeting with the Fund's portfolio managers and investment personnel. With respect to the Fund, the Board is meeting periodically with such Fund's portfolio managers and/or other investment personnel and believes that such individuals are competent and able to continue to carry out their responsibilities under the Advisory Agreement.

48

. Overall performance of AIM. The Board considered the overall performance of AIM in providing investment advisory and portfolio administrative services to the Fund and concluded that such performance was satisfactory.

. Fees relative to those of clients of AIM with comparable investment strategies. The Board reviewed the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement. The Board noted that this rate (i) was the same as the initial advisory fee rate for a variable insurance fund advised by AIM and offered to insurance company separate accounts with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund, although there were no breakpoints in the advisory fee schedule applicable to the variable insurance fund; (ii) was lower than the advisory fee rate for four offshore funds for which an AIM affiliate serves as advisor with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund; and (iii) was higher than the sub-advisory fee rates for two unaffiliated mutual funds for which an AIM affiliate serves as sub-advisor, although the total management fees paid by such unaffiliated mutual funds were higher than the advisory fee rate for the Fund. The Board noted that AIM has agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund and to limit the Fund's total operating expenses, as discussed below. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable.

. Fees relative to those of comparable funds with other advisors. The Board reviewed the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement. The Board compared effective contractual advisory fee rates at a common asset level and noted that the Fund's rate was comparable to the median rate of the funds advised by other advisors with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund that the Board reviewed. The Board noted that AIM has agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund and to limit the Fund's total operating expenses, as discussed below. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the advisory fee rate for the Fund under the Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable.

. Expense limitations and fee waivers. The Board noted that AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund through June 30, 2006 to the extent necessary so that the advisory fees payable by the Fund do not exceed a specified maximum advisory fee rate, which maximum rate includes breakpoints and is based on net asset levels. The Board considered the contractual nature of this fee waiver and noted that it remains in effect through June 30, 2006. The Board noted that AIM has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or limit expenses of the Fund through June 30, 2006 in an amount necessary to limit total annual operating expenses to a specified percentage of average daily net assets for each class of the Fund. The Board considered the contractual nature of this fee waiver/expense limitation and noted that it remains in effect through June 30, 2006. The Board considered the effect these fee waivers/expense limitations would have on the Fund's estimated expenses and concluded that the levels of fee waivers/expense limitations for the Fund were fair and reasonable.

. Breakpoints and economies of scale. The Board reviewed the structure of the Fund's advisory fee under the Advisory Agreement, noting that it includes six breakpoints. The Board reviewed the level of the Fund's advisory fees, and noted that such fees, as a percentage of the Fund's net assets, have decreased as net assets increased because the Advisory Agreement includes breakpoints. The Board noted that, due to the Fund's current asset levels and the way in which the advisory fee breakpoints have been structured, the Fund has yet to fully benefit from the breakpoints. The Board noted that AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund through June 30, 2006 to the extent necessary so that the advisory fees payable by the Fund do not exceed a specified maximum advisory fee rate, which maximum rate includes breakpoints and is based on net asset levels. The Board concluded that the Fund's fee levels under the Advisory Agreement therefore reflect economies of scale and that it was not necessary to change the advisory fee breakpoints in the Fund's advisory fee schedule.

. Investments in affiliated money market funds. The Board also took into account the fact that uninvested cash and cash collateral from securities lending arrangements (collectively, "cash balances") of the Fund may be invested in money market funds advised by AIM pursuant to the terms of an SEC exemptive order. The Board found that the Fund may realize certain benefits upon investing cash balances in AIM advised money market funds, including a higher net return, increased liquidity, increased diversification or decreased transaction costs. The Board also found that the Fund will not receive reduced services if it invests its cash balances in such money market funds. The Board noted that, to the extent the Fund invests in affiliated money market funds, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the advisory fees it receives from the Fund attributable to such investment. The Board further determined that the proposed securities lending program and related procedures with respect

49

to the lending Fund is in the best interests of the lending Fund and its respective shareholders. The Board therefore concluded that the investment of cash collateral received in connection with the securities lending program in the money market funds according to the procedures is in the best interests of the lending Fund and its respective shareholders.

. Independent written evaluation and recommendations of the Fund's Senior Officer. The Board noted that, upon their direction, the Senior Officer of the Fund had prepared an independent written evaluation in order to assist the Board in determining the reasonableness of the proposed management fees of the AIM Funds, including the Fund. The Board noted that the Senior Officer's written evaluation had been relied upon by the Board in this regard in lieu of a competitive bidding process. In determining whether to continue the Advisory Agreement for the Fund, the Board considered the Senior Officer's written evaluation and the recommendation made by the Senior Officer to the Board that the Board consider implementing a process to assist them in more closely monitoring the performance of the AIM Funds. The Board concluded that it would be advisable to implement such a process as soon as reasonably practicable.

. Profitability of AIM and its affiliates. The Board reviewed information concerning the profitability of AIM's (and its affiliates') investment advisory and other activities and its financial condition. The Board considered the overall profitability of AIM, as well as the profitability of AIM in connection with managing the Fund. The Board noted that AIM's operations remain profitable, although increased expenses in recent years have reduced AIM's profitability. Based on the review of the profitability of AIM's and its affiliates' investment advisory and other activities and its financial condition, the Board concluded that the compensation to be paid by the Fund to AIM under its Advisory Agreement was not excessive.

. Benefits of soft dollars to AIM. The Board considered the benefits realized by AIM as a result of brokerage transactions executed through "soft dollar" arrangements. Under these arrangements, brokerage commissions paid by the Fund and/or other funds advised by AIM are used to pay for research and execution services. This research is used by AIM in making investment decisions for the Fund. The Board concluded that such arrangements were appropriate.

. AIM's financial soundness in light of the Fund's needs. The Board considered whether AIM is financially sound and has the resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Advisory Agreement, and concluded that AIM has the financial resources necessary to fulfill its obligations under the Advisory Agreement.

. Historical relationship between the Fund and AIM. In determining whether to continue the Advisory Agreement for the Fund, the Board also considered the prior relationship between AIM and the Fund, as well as the Board's knowledge of AIM's operations, and concluded that it was beneficial to maintain the current relationship, in part, because of such knowledge. The Board also reviewed the general nature of the non-investment advisory services currently performed by AIM and its affiliates, such as administrative, transfer agency and distribution services, and the fees received by AIM and its affiliates for performing such services. In addition to reviewing such services, the trustees also considered the organizational structure employed by AIM and its affiliates to provide those services. Based on the review of these and other factors, the Board concluded that AIM and its affiliates were qualified to continue to provide non-investment advisory services to the Fund, including administrative, transfer agency and distribution services, and that AIM and its affiliates currently are providing satisfactory non-investment advisory services.

. Other factors and current trends. In determining whether to continue the Advisory Agreement for the Fund, the Board considered the fact that AIM, along with others in the mutual fund industry, is subject to regulatory inquiries and litigation related to a wide range of issues. The Board also considered the governance and compliance reforms being undertaken by AIM and its affiliates, including maintaining an internal controls committee and retaining an independent compliance consultant, and the fact that AIM has undertaken to cause the Fund to operate in accordance with certain governance policies and practices. The Board concluded that these actions indicated a good faith effort on the part of AIM to adhere to the highest ethical standards, and determined that the current regulatory and litigation environment to which AIM is subject should not prevent the Board from continuing the Advisory Agreement for the Fund.

COMPENSATION

Each trustee who is not affiliated with AIM is compensated for his or her services according to a fee schedule which recognizes the fact that such trustee also serves as a trustee of other AIM Funds. Each such trustee receives a fee, allocated among the AIM Funds for which he or she serves as a trustee, which consists of an annual retainer component and a meeting fee component. The Chair of the Board and Chairs and Vice Chairs of certain committees receive additional compensation for their services.

Information regarding compensation paid or accrued for each trustee of the Trust who was not affiliated with AIM during the year ended December 31, 2004 is found in Appendix E.

RETIREMENT PLAN FOR TRUSTEES

The trustees have adopted a retirement plan for the trustees of the Trust who are not affiliated with AIM. The retirement plan includes a retirement policy as well as retirement benefits for the non-AIM-affiliated trustees.

The retirement policy permits each non-AIM-affiliated trustee to serve until December 31 of the year in which the trustee turns 72. A majority of the trustees may extend from time to time the retirement date of a trustee.

Annual retirement benefits are available to each non-AIM-affiliated trustee of the Trust and/or the other AIM (each, a "Covered Fund") who has at least five years of credited service as a trustee (including service to a predecessor fund) for a Covered Fund. The retirement benefits will equal 75% of the trustee's annual retainer paid or accrued by any Covered Fund to such trustee during the twelve-month period prior to retirement, including the amount of any retainer deferred under a separate deferred compensation agreement between the Covered Fund and the trustee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of benefits will exclude any additional compensation paid to the Chair of the Board and the Chairs and Vice Chairs of certain committees, whether such amounts are paid directly to the Trustee or deferred. The annual retirement benefits are payable in quarterly installments for a number of years equal to the lesser of (i) ten or (ii) the number of such trustee's credited years of service. A death benefit is also available under the plan that provides a surviving spouse with a quarterly installment of 50% of a deceased trustee's retirement benefits for the same length of time that the trustee would have received based on his or her service. A trustee must have attained the age of 65 (55 in the event of death or disability) to receive any retirement benefit.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION AGREEMENTS

Messrs. Crockett, Dunn, Fields, Frischling, Sklar and Soll and Dr. Mathai-Davis (for purposes of this paragraph only, the "Deferring Trustees") have each executed a Deferred Compensation Agreement (collectively, the "Compensation Agreements"). Pursuant to the Compensation Agreements, the Deferring Trustees have the option to elect to defer receipt of up to 100% of their compensation payable by the Trust, and such amounts are placed into a deferral account and deemed to be invested in one or more AIM Funds selected by the Deferring Trustees. Distributions from the Deferring Trustees' deferral accounts will be paid in cash, generally in equal quarterly installments over a period of up to ten (10) years (depending on the Compensation Agreement) beginning on the date selected under the Compensation Agreement. The Trust's Board, in its sole discretion, may accelerate or extend the distribution of such deferral accounts after the Deferring Trustee's retirement benefits commence under the Plan. The Board, in its sole discretion, also may accelerate or extend the distribution of such deferral accounts after the Deferring Trustee's termination of service as a trustee of the Trust. If a Deferring Trustee dies prior to the distribution of amounts in his or her deferral account, the balance of the deferral account will be distributed to his or her designated beneficiary. The Compensation Agreements are not funded and, with respect to the payments of amounts held in the deferral accounts, the Deferring Trustees have the status of unsecured creditors of the Trust and of each other AIM Fund from which they are deferring compensation.

Purchases of Class A Shares of the Funds at Net Asset Value

The trustees and other affiliated persons of the Trust may purchase Class A shares of the AIM Funds without paying an initial sales charge. A I M Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") permits such purchases because there is a reduced sales effort involving in sales to such purchasers, thereby resulting in relatively low expenses of distribution. For a complete description of the persons who will not pay an initial sales charge on purchases of Class A shares of the Funds, see

51

"Purchase, Redemption and Pricing of Shares - Purchase and Redemption of Shares
- Purchases of Class A Shares, Class A3 Shares of Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund and AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund - Purchases of Class A Shares at Net Asset Value."

CODE OF ETHICS

AIM, the Trust, with respect to the Funds, and AIM Distributors have each adopted a Code of Ethics governing, as applicable, personal trading activities of all trustees, officers of the Trust, persons who, in connection with their regular functions, play a role in the recommendation of any purchase or sale of a security by the Fund or obtain information pertaining to such purchase or sale, and certain other employees. The Codes of Ethics are intended to prohibit conflicts of interest with the Trust that may arise from personal trading including personal trading in most of the funds within The AIM Family of Funds(R) ("affiliated funds"). Personal trading, including personal trading involving securities that may be purchased or held by the Fund and in affiliated funds, is permitted by persons covered under the relevant Codes subject to certain restrictions; however those persons are generally required to pre-clear all security transactions with the Compliance Officer or his designee and to report all transactions on a regular basis.

PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

The Board, with respect to the Funds, has delegated responsibility for decisions regarding proxy voting for securities held by the Fund to AIM. AIM will vote such proxies in accordance with its proxy policies and procedures, which have been reviewed and approved by the Board, and which are found in Appendix F.

Any material changes to the proxy policies and procedures will be submitted to the Board for approval. The Board will be supplied with a summary quarterly report of the Fund's proxy voting record.

Information regarding how the Funds voted proxies related to its portfolio securities during the 12 months ended June 30, 2005 is available at our Web site, http://www.AIMinvestments.com. This information is also available at the SEC Web site, http://www.sec.gov.

CONTROL PERSONS AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF SECURITIES

Information about the ownership of each class of the Funds' shares by beneficial or record owners of the Funds and by trustees and officers as a group is found in Appendix G. A shareholder who owns beneficially 25% or more of the outstanding shares of a Fund is presumed to "control" that Fund.

DISTRIBUTION OF SECURITIES

DISTRIBUTOR

The Trust has entered into master distribution agreements, as amended, relating to the Funds (the "Distribution Agreements") with A I M Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors"), a registered broker-dealer and a wholly owned subsidiary of AIM, pursuant to which AIM Distributors acts as the distributor of the shares of the Funds. AIM Distributors became the distributor of the Funds effective July 1, 2003. The address of AIM Distributors is P.O. Box 4739, Houston, Texas 77210-4739. Certain trustees and offices of the Trust are affiliated with AIM Distributors.

AIM Distributors bears all expenses, including the cost of printing and distributing prospectuses, incident to marketing of the Funds' shares, except for such distribution expenses as are paid out of Fund assets under the Trust's Plans of Distribution (each individually a "Plan" and collectively, the "Plans"), which have been adopted by each Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Prior to July 1, 2003, INVESCO Distributors, Inc. ("IDI") was the distributor of the Funds.

52

The Distribution Agreements provide AIM Distributors with the exclusive right to distribute shares of the Funds on a continuous basis directly and through other broker-dealers with whom AIM Distributors has entered into selected dealer agreements. AIM Distributors has not undertaken to sell any specified number of shares of any class of the Funds.

The following chart reflects the total sales charges paid in connection with the sale of Class A shares of each Fund and the amount retained by AIM Distributors and/or IDI, as applicable, for the last two fiscal years ended March 31, 2005:

INVESTOR CLASS. The Trust has adopted a reimbursement-type Amended and Restated Master Distribution Plan - Investor Class pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act relating to the Investor Class shares of AIM Technology Fund (the "Reimbursement Investor Class Plan"). Under the Reimbursement Investor Class Plan, Investor Class shares of this Fund pay AIM Distributors an amount necessary to reimburse AIM Distributors for its actual allocated share of expenses incurred pursuant to the Reimbursement Investor Class Plan for the period, up to a maximum annual rate of 0.25% per annum of the average daily net assets attributable to Investor Class shares. These payments permit AIM Distributors, at its discretion, to engage in certain activities and provide services in connection with the distribution of AIM Technology Fund's Investor Class shares to investors. Payments by AIM Technology Fund under the Reimbursement Investor Class Plan, for any month, may be made to reimburse AIM Distributors for permissible activities engaged in and services provided.

The Trust has adopted a compensation-type Amended and Restated Master Distribution Plan - Investor Class pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act relating to the Investor Class shares of each Fund other than AIM Technology Fund (the "Compensation Investor Class Plan"). Under the Compensation Investor Class Plan, Investor Class shares of the Funds will make monthly payments to AIM Distributors computed at an annual rate no greater than 0.25% of average net assets attributable to Investor Class shares. These payments permit AIM Distributors, at its discretion, to engage in certain activities and provide services in connection with the distribution of the Funds' Investor Class shares to investors.

53

Payments by a Fund under the Compensation Investor Class Plan, for any month, may be made to compensate AIM Distributors for permissible activities engaged in and services provided.

CLASS A. The Trust has adopted an Amended and Restated Master Distribution Plan
- Class A pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act relating to the Class A shares of the Funds (the "Class A Plan").

The Class A Plan is designed to compensate AIM Distributors, on a monthly basis, for certain promotional and other sales-related costs, and to implement a dealer incentive program which provides for periodic payments to financial intermediaries who furnish continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class A shares of the Funds. Payment can also be directed by AIM Distributors to financial intermediaries that have entered into service agreements with respect to Class A shares of the Funds and that provide continuing personal services to their customers who own Class A shares of the Funds. The service fees payable to financial intermediaries are calculated at the annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net asset value of those Fund shares that are held in such financial intermediaries' customers' accounts.

Of the aggregate amount payable under the Class A Plan, payments to financial intermediaries that provide continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class A shares of the Funds, in amounts up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Class A shares of each Fund attributable to the customers of such financial intermediaries, are characterized as service fees. Payments to financial intermediaries in excess of such amount and payments to AIM Distributors would be characterized as an asset-based sales charge pursuant to the Class A Plan. The Class A Plan also imposes a cap on the total amount of sales charges, including asset-based sales charges, that may be paid by the Trust with respect to the Class A shares of a Fund.

Under the Class A Plan, Class A shares of the Funds pay compensation to AIM Distributors at an annual rate of 0.25% per annum of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for the purpose of financing any activity which is primarily intended to result in the sale of Class A shares.

CLASS B. The Trust has adopted an Amended and Restated Master Distribution Plan
- Class B pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act relating to Class B shares of the Funds (the "Class B Plan"). Under the Class B Plan, Class B shares of the Funds pay compensation monthly to AIM Distributors at an annual rate of 1.00% per annum of the average daily net assets attributable to Class B shares for the purpose of financing any activity which is primarily intended to result in the sale of Class B shares. Of such amount, each Fund pays a service fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class B shares to selected financial intermediaries that have entered into service agreements with respect to Class B shares of the Funds and that provide continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class B shares. Any amount not paid as a service fee would constitute an asset-based sales charge pursuant to the Class B Plan. The portion of the payments to AIM Distributors under the Class B plan which constitutes an asset-based sales charge (0.75%) is intended in part to permit AIM Distributors to recoup a portion of such sales commissions plus financing costs. The Class B Plan also imposes a cap on the total amount of sales charges, including asset-based sales charges, that may be paid by the Trust with respect to the Class B shares of a Fund.

The Class B Plan may obligate the Class B shares to continue to make payments to AIM Distributors following termination of the Class B Plan with respect to Class B shares sold by or attributable to the distribution efforts of AIM Distributors or its predecessor unless there has been a complete termination of the Class B Plan (as defined in such Plan). Additionally, the Class B Plan expressly authorizes AIM Distributors to assign, transfer, or pledge its rights to payments pursuant to the Class B Plan. The contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) on Class B shares will continue to be applicable even in the event of a complete termination of the Class B Plan (as defined in such Plan).

CLASS C. The Trust has adopted an Amended and Restated Master Distribution Plan
- Class C pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act relating to the Class C shares of the Funds (the "Class C Plan"). Under the Class C Plan, Class C shares of the Funds pay compensation monthly to AIM Distributors at an annual rate of 1.00% per annum of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for the purpose of financing any activity which is primarily intended to result in the sale of Class C shares. The Class C Plan is designed to compensate AIM Distributors for certain promotional and other sales-related costs, and to implement a financial intermediary incentive program which provides for periodic payments to selected financial intermediaries that have entered onto service agreements and furnish continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class C shares of a Fund.

Of the aggregate amount payable under the Class C Plan, payments to financial intermediaries that provide continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class C shares of a Fund, in amounts of up to

54

0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Class C shares of the Fund attributable to the customers of such financial intermediaries, are characterized as a service fee. Payments to financial intermediaries in excess of such amount and payments to AIM Distributors would be characterized as an asset-based sales charge pursuant to the Class C Plan. The Class C Plan also imposes a cap on the total amount of sales charges, including asset-based sales charges, that may be paid by the Trust with respect to the Class C shares.

AIM Distributors may pay sales commissions to financial intermediaries that sell Class C shares of the Funds at the time of such sales. Payments with respect to Class C shares will equal 1.00% of the purchase price of the Class C shares sold or serviced by the financial intermediary, and will consist of an asset-based sales charge of 0.75% of the purchase price of Class C shares sold plus an advance of the first year service fee of 0.25% with respect to such shares. AIM Distributors will retain all payments received by it relating to Class C shares for the first thirteen months after they are purchased. The portion of the payments to AIM Distributors under the Class C Plan which constitutes an asset-based sales charge (0.75%) is intended in part to permit AIM Distributors to recoup a portion of on-going sales commissions to financial intermediaries plus financing costs, if any. After the first thirteen months, AIM Distributors will make such payments quarterly to financial intermediaries based on the average net asset value of Class C shares which are attributable to shareholders for whom the financial intermediaries are designated as dealers of record. These commissions are not paid on sales to investors who may not be subject to payment of the CDSC and in circumstances where AIM Distributors grants an exemption on particular transactions. Should the financial intermediary elect to waive the asset-based sales charge, the 12b-1 fees will begin to be paid by AIM Distributors to the financial intermediary immediately.

CLASS K. The Trust has adopted an Amended and Restated Master Distribution Plan
- Class K pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act relating to Class K shares (the "Class K Plan"). Under the Class K Plan, Class K shares of the Funds pay compensation monthly to AIM Distributors at an annual rate of 0.45% of average net assets attributable to Class K shares for the purpose of financing any activity which is primarily intended to result in the sale of Class K shares. The Class K Plan is designed to compensate AIM Distributors for certain promotional and other sales-related costs, and to implement a financial intermediary incentive program which provides for periodic payments to selected financial intermediaries that have entered into service agreements and furnish continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class K shares of a Fund.

Of the aggregate amount payable under the Class K Plan, payments to financial intermediaries that provide continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class K shares of a Fund may be characterized as a service fee. The Board has terminated the Class K Plan effective close of business October 21, 2005.

CLASS R. The Trust has adopted an Amended and Restated Master Distribution Plan
- Class R pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act relating to Class R shares (the "Class R Plan"). Under the Class R Plan, Class R shares of the Fund pay compensation monthly to AIM Distributors at an annual rate of 0.50% of average net assets attributable to Class R shares for the purpose of financing any activity which is primarily intended to result in the sale of Class R shares. The Class R Plan is designed to compensate AIM Distributors for certain promotional and other sales-related costs, and to implement a financial intermediary incentive program which provides for periodic payments to selected financial intermediaries that have entered into service agreements and furnish continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class R shares of the Fund.

Of the aggregate amount payable under the Class R Plan, payments to financial intermediaries that provide continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own Class R shares of the Fund may be characterized as a service fee.

ALL PLANS. Activities appropriate for financing under the Plans include, but are not limited to, the following: printing of prospectuses and statements of additional information and reports for other than existing shareholders; preparation and distribution of advertising material and sales literature; expenses of organizing and conducting sales seminars; and supplemental payments to financial intermediaries such as asset-based sales charges or as payments of service fees under shareholder service arrangements.

A significant expenditure under the Plans is compensation paid to financial intermediaries, which may include AIM-affiliated companies in order to obtain various distribution-related and/or administrative services for the Funds. Each Fund is authorized by a Plan to use its assets to finance the payments made to obtain those services from selected financial

intermediaries which may enter into agreements with AIM Distributors. Payments will be made by AIM Distributors to financial intermediaries who sell shares of a Fund and may be made to banks, savings and loan associations, and other depository institutions ("Banks"). Although the Glass-Steagall Act limits the ability of certain Banks to act as underwriters of mutual fund shares, AIM does not believe that these limitations would affect the ability of such Banks to enter into arrangements with AIM Distributors, but can give no assurance in this regard. However, to the extent it is determined otherwise in the future, arrangements with Banks might have to be modified or terminated, and, in that case, the size of the Funds possibly could decrease to the extent that the Banks would no longer invest customer assets in the Funds. Neither the Trust nor its investment advisor will give any preference to Banks which enter into such arrangements when selecting investments to be made by a Fund.

The Funds made payments to AIM Distributors under the Investor Class, Class A, Class B, Class C and, if applicable, Class K Plans during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005 in the following amounts:

/1/ Class K shares are not offered.

The services which are provided by financial intermediaries may vary by financial intermediary but include, among other things, processing new shareholder account applications, preparing and transmitting to the Trust's Transfer Agent computer-processable tapes of all Fund transactions by customers, serving as the primary source of information to customers in answering questions concerning the Funds, and assisting in other customer transactions with the Funds.

The Plans provide that they shall continue in effect with respect to each Fund as long as such continuance is approved at least annually by the vote of the Board cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such continuance, including the vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees. A Plan can be terminated at any time by a Fund, without penalty, if a majority of the Independent Trustees, or shareholders of the relevant class of shares of the Fund, vote to terminate a Plan. Unless a complete termination of the Class B Plan (as defined in such Plan) occurs, Class B shares will continue to make payments to AIM Distributors with respect to Class B Shares sold by or attributable to the distribution efforts of AIM Distributors or its predecessor. The Trust may, in its absolute discretion, suspend, discontinue, or limit the offering of its shares at any time. In determining whether any such action should be taken, the Board intends to consider all relevant factors including, without limitation, the size of a Fund, the investment climate for a Fund, general market conditions, and the volume of sales and redemptions of a Fund's shares. The Plans may continue in effect and payments may be made under a Plan following any temporary suspension or limitation of the offering of Fund shares; however, the Trust is not contractually obligated to continue a Plan for any particular period of time. Suspension of the offering of a Fund's shares would not, of course, affect a shareholder's ability to redeem his or her shares.

57

So long as the Plans are in effect, the selection and nomination of persons to serve as Independent Trustees of the Trust shall be committed to the Independent Trustees then in office at the time of such selection or nomination. The Plans may not be amended to increase the amount of a Fund's payments under a Plan without approval of the shareholders of that Fund's respective class of shares, and all material amendments to a Plan must be approved by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees. Under the agreement implementing the Plans, AIM Distributors or a Fund, the latter by vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees, or a majority of the holders of the relevant class of a Fund's outstanding voting securities, may terminate such agreement without penalty upon thirty days' written notice to the other party. No further payments will be made by the Fund under a Plan in the event of its termination.

To the extent that a Plan constitutes a plan of distribution adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, it shall remain in effect as such, so as to authorize the use of Fund assets in the amounts and for the purposes set forth therein, notwithstanding the occurrence of an assignment, as defined by the 1940 Act, and rules thereunder. To the extent it constitutes an agreement pursuant to a plan, a Fund's obligation to make payments to AIM Distributors shall terminate automatically, in the event of such "assignment." In this event, a Fund may continue to make payments pursuant to a Plan only upon the approval of new arrangements regarding the use of the amounts authorized to be paid by a Fund under a Plan. Such new arrangements must be approved by the trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, by a vote cast in person at a meeting called for such purpose. These new arrangements might or might not be with AIM Distributors. On a quarterly basis, the trustees review information about the distribution services that have been provided to each Fund and the 12b-1 fees paid for such services. On an annual basis, the trustees consider whether a Plan should be continued and, if so, whether any amendment to the Plan, including changes in the amount of 12b-1 fees paid by each class of a Fund, should be made.

The only trustees and interested persons, as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, who have a direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plans are the officers and trustees of the Trust who are also officers either of AIM Distributors or other companies affiliated with AIM Distributors. The benefits which the Trust believes will be reasonably likely to flow to a Fund and its shareholders under the Plans include the following:

. Enhanced marketing efforts, if successful, should result in an increase in net assets through the sale of additional shares and afford greater resources with which to pursue the investment objectives of the Funds;

. The sale of additional shares reduces the likelihood that redemption of shares will require the liquidation of securities of the Funds in amounts and at times that are disadvantageous for investment purposes; and

. Increased Fund assets may result in reducing each investor's share of certain expenses through economies of scale (e.g. exceeding established breakpoints in an advisory fee schedule and allocating fixed expenses over a larger asset base), thereby partially offsetting the costs of a Plan.

The positive effect which increased Fund assets will have on AIM's revenues could allow AIM and its affiliated companies:

. To have greater resources to make the financial commitments necessary to improve the quality and level of the Funds' shareholder services (in both systems and personnel);

. To increase the number and type of mutual funds available to investors from AIM and its affiliated companies (and support them in their infancy), and thereby expand the investment choices available to all shareholders; and

. To acquire and retain talented employees who desire to be associated with a growing organization.

PURCHASE, REDEMPTION AND PRICING OF SHARES

TRANSACTIONS THROUGH FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES. If you are investing indirectly in a Fund through a financial intermediary such as a broker-dealer, a bank (including a bank trust department), an insurance company separate account, an investment advisor, an administrator or trustee of a retirement plan or a qualified tuition plan or a sponsor of a fee-based program that maintains a master account (an omnibus account) with the Fund for trading on behalf of its customers, different guidelines, conditions and restrictions may apply than if you held your shares of the Fund directly. These differences may include, but are not limited to: (i) different eligibility standards to purchase and sell shares, different eligibility standards to invest in funds with limited offering status and different eligibility standards to exchange

58

shares by telephone; (ii) different minimum and maximum initial and subsequent purchase amounts; (iii) system inability to provide Letter of Intent privileges; and (iv) different annual amounts (less than 12%) subject to withdrawal under a Systematic Redemption Plan without being subject to a contingent deferred sales charge. The financial intermediary through whom you are investing may also choose to adopt different exchange and/or transfer limit guidelines and restrictions, including different trading restrictions designed to discourage excessive or short-term trading. The financial intermediary through whom you are investing may also choose to impose a redemption fee that has different characteristics, which may be more or less restrictive, than the redemption fee currently imposed on certain Funds.

If the financial intermediary is managing your account, you may also be charged a transaction or other fee by such financial intermediary, including service fees for handling redemption transactions. Consult with your financial intermediary (or, in the case of a retirement plan, your plan sponsor) to determine what fees, guidelines, conditions and restrictions, including any of the above, may be applicable to you.

PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION OF SHARES

Purchases of Class A Shares, Class A3 Shares of AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund and AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund

INITIAL SALES CHARGES. Each AIM Fund (other than AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund) is grouped into one of three categories to determine the applicable initial sales charge for its Class A Shares. Additionally, Class A shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund are subject to an initial sales charge of 2.50%. The sales charge is used to compensate AIM Distributors and participating dealers for their expenses incurred in connection with the distribution of the Funds' shares. You may also be charged a transaction or other fee by the financial institution managing your account.

Class A Shares of AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Class A3 Shares of AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund and AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund are sold without an initial sales charge.

Beginning on October 31, 2003 Class A Shares of AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund was closed to new investors. Current investors must maintain a share balance in order to continue to make incremental purchases.

LARGE PURCHASES OF CLASS A SHARES. Investors who purchase $1,000,000 or more of Class A Shares of Category I, II or III Funds and Class A shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund do not pay an initial sales charge. In addition, investors who currently own Class A shares of Category I, II, or III Funds and Class A shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund and make additional purchases that result in account balances of $1,000,000 or more do not pay an initial sales charge on the additional purchases. The additional purchases, as well as initial purchases of $1,000,000 or more, are referred to as Large Purchases. If an investor makes a Large Purchase of Class A shares of a Category I or II Fund and Class A shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund, however, each share issued will generally be subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") if the investor redeems those shares within 18 months after purchase. Large Purchases of Class A shares by investors who were Class K shareholders of record on October 21, 2005 are not subject to a CDSC.

AIM Distributors may pay a dealer concession and/or advance a service fee on Large Purchases, as set forth below. Exchanges between the AIM Funds may affect total compensation paid.

61

AIM Distributors may make the following payments to dealers of record for Large Purchases of Class A shares of Category I or II Funds or AIM Short Term Bond Fund, by investors other than: (i) retirement plans that are maintained pursuant to Sections 401 and 457 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (ii) retirement plans that are maintained pursuant to Section 403 of the Code if the employer or plan sponsor is a tax-exempt organization operated pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Code.

PERCENT OF PURCHASE

1% of the first $2 million
plus 0.80% of the next $1 million
plus 0.50% of the next $17 million
plus 0.25% of amounts in excess of $20 million

If (i) the amount of any single purchase order plus (ii) the net asset value of all other shares owned by the same customer submitting the purchase order on the day on which the purchase order is received equals or exceeds $1,000,000, the purchase will be considered a "jumbo accumulation purchase." With regard to any individual jumbo accumulation purchase, AIM Distributors may make payment to the dealer of record based on the cumulative total of jumbo accumulation purchases made by the same customer over the life of his or her account(s).

If an investor made a Large Purchase of Class A shares of a Category III Fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund on and after November 15, 2001 and through October 30, 2002 and exchanges those shares for Class A shares of a Category I or II Fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund, AIM Distributors will pay an additional dealer concession of 0.75% upon exchange.

If an investor makes a Large Purchase of Class A shares of a Category I or II Fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund on and after November 15, 2001 and exchanges those shares for Class A shares of a Category III Fund, AIM Distributors will not pay any additional dealer compensation upon the exchange. Beginning February 17, 2003, Class A shares of a Category I or II Fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund may not be exchanged for Class A shares of a Category III Fund.

If an investor makes a Large Purchase of Class A3 shares of a Category III Fund on and after October 31, 2002 and exchanges those shares for Class A shares of a Category I or II Fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund, AIM Distributors will pay 1.00% of such purchase as dealer compensation upon the exchange. The Class A shares of the Category I or II Fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund received in exchange generally will be subject to a 1.00% CDSC if the investor redeems such shares within 18 months from the date of exchange.

If an investor makes a Large Purchase of Class A shares of a Category III Fund and exchanges those shares for Class A shares of another Category III Fund, AIM Distributors will not pay any additional dealer concession upon the exchange. Beginning February 17, 2003, Class A shares of a Category III Fund may not be exchanged for Class A shares of another Category III Fund.

PURCHASES OF CLASS A SHARES BY CERTAIN RETIREMENT PLANS AT NAV. For purchases of Class A shares of Category I and II Funds or AIM Short Term Bond Fund, AIM Distributors may make the following payments to investment dealers or other financial service firms for sales of such shares at net asset value ("NAV") to certain retirement plans provided that the applicable dealer of record is able to establish that the retirement plan's purchase of Class A shares is a new investment (as defined below):

62

PERCENT OF PURCHASE

0.50% of the first $20 million
plus 0.25% of amounts in excess of $20 million

This payment schedule will be applicable to purchases of Class A shares at NAV by the following types of retirement plans: (i) all plans maintained pursuant to Sections 401 and 457 of the Code, and (ii) plans maintained pursuant to Section 403 of the Code if the employer or plan sponsor is a tax-exempt organization operated pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Code.

A "new investment" means a purchase paid for with money that does not represent
(i) the proceeds of one or more redemptions of AIM Fund shares, (ii) an exchange of AIM Fund shares, or (iii) the repayment of one or more retirement plan loans that were funded through the redemption of AIM Fund shares. If AIM Distributors pays a dealer concession in connection with a plan's purchase of Class A shares at NAV, such shares may be subject to a CDSC of 1.00% of net assets for 12 months, commencing on the date the plan first invests in Class A shares of an AIM Fund. The trail commission will be paid out beginning in the 13th month. If no additional fee is paid to financial intermediaries, the trail commission will begin to accrue immediately. If the applicable dealer of record is unable to establish that a plan's purchase of Class A shares at NAV is a new investment, AIM Distributors will not pay a dealer concession in connection with such purchase and such shares will not be subject to a CDSC.

With regard to any individual jumbo accumulation purchase, AIM Distributors may make payment to the dealer of record based on the cumulative total of jumbo accumulation purchases made by the same plan over the life of the plan's account(s).

HOW TO QUALIFY FOR REDUCTIONS IN INITIAL SALES CHARGES. The following sections discuss different ways that a Qualified Purchaser can qualify for a reduction in the initial sales charges for purchases of Class A shares of the AIM Funds.

LETTERS OF INTENT

A Qualified Purchaser may pay reduced initial sales charges by (i) indicating on the Account Application that he, she or it intends to provide a Letter of Intent ("LOI"), and (ii) subsequently fulfilling the conditions of that LOI. Employer-sponsored retirement plans, with the exception of Solo 401(k) plans and SEP plans, are not eligible for a LOI.

The LOI confirms the total investment in shares of the AIM Funds that the Qualified Purchaser intends to make within the next 13 months. By marking the LOI section on the account application and by signing the account application, the Qualified Purchaser indicates that he, she or it understands and agrees to the terms of the LOI and is bound by the provisions described below:

Calculating the Initial Sales Charge

. Each purchase of fund shares normally subject to an initial sales charge made during the 13-month period will be made at the public offering price applicable to a single transaction of the total dollar amount indicated by the LOI (to determine what the applicable public offering price is, look at the sales charge table in the section on "Initial Sales Charges" above).

. It is the purchaser's responsibility at the time of purchase to specify the account numbers that should be considered in determining the appropriate sales charge.

64

. The offering price may be further reduced as described below under "Rights of Accumulation" if the Transfer Agent is advised of all other accounts at the time of the investment.

. Shares acquired through reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions will not be applied to the LOI.

Calculating the Number of Shares to be Purchased

. Purchases made within 90 days before signing an LOI will be applied toward completion of the LOI. The LOI effective date will be the date of the first purchase within the 90-day period.

. Purchases made more than 90 days before signing an LOI will be applied toward the completion of the LOI based on the value of the shares purchased that is calculated at the public offering price on the effective date of the LOI.

. If a purchaser meets the original obligation at any time during the 13-month period, he or she may revise the intended investment amount upward by submitting a written and signed request. This revision will not change the original expiration date.

. The Transfer Agent will process necessary adjustments upon the expiration or completion date of the LOI.

Fulfilling the Intended Investment

. By signing an LOI, a purchaser is not making a binding commitment to purchase additional shares, but if purchases made within the 13-month period do not total the amount specified, the purchaser will have to pay the increased amount of sales charge.

. To assure compliance with the provisions of the 1940 Act, the Transfer Agent will escrow in the form of shares an appropriate dollar amount (computed to the nearest full share) out of the initial purchase (or subsequent purchases if necessary). All dividends and any capital gain distributions on the escrowed shares will be credited to the purchaser. All shares purchased, including those escrowed, will be registered in the purchaser's name. If the total investment specified under this LOI is completed within the 13-month period, the escrowed shares will be promptly released.

. If the intended investment is not completed, the purchaser will pay the Transfer Agent the difference between the sales charge on the specified amount and the sales charge on the amount actually purchased. If the purchaser does not pay such difference within 20 days of the expiration date, he or she irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Transfer Agent as his attorney to surrender for redemption any or all shares, to make up such difference within 60 days of the expiration date.

Canceling the LOI

. If at any time before completing the LOI Program, the purchaser wishes to cancel the agreement, he or she must give written notice to AIM Distributors.

. If at any time before completing the LOI Program the purchaser requests the Transfer Agent to liquidate or transfer beneficial ownership of his total shares, the LOI will be automatically canceled. If the total amount purchased is less than the amount specified in the LOI, the Transfer Agent will redeem an appropriate number of escrowed shares equal to the difference between the sales charge actually paid and the sales charge that would have been paid if the total purchases had been made at a single time.

65

Other Persons Eligible for the LOI Privilege

. The LOI privilege is also available to holders of the Connecticut General Guaranteed Account, established for tax qualified group annuities, for contracts purchased on or before June 30, 1992.

LOIs and Contingent Deferred Sales Charges

All LOIs to purchase $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares of Category I and II Funds and AIM Short Term Bond Fund are subject to an 18-month, 1% CDSC.

RIGHTS OF ACCUMULATION

A Qualified Purchaser may also qualify for reduced initial sales charges based upon his, her or its existing investment in shares of any of the AIM Funds at the time of the proposed purchase. To determine whether or not a reduced initial sales charge applies to a proposed purchase, AIM Distributors takes into account not only the money which is invested upon such proposed purchase, but also the value of all shares of the AIM Funds owned by such purchaser, calculated at their then current public offering price.

If a purchaser qualifies for a reduced sales charge, the reduced sales charge applies to the total amount of money being invested, even if only a portion of that amount exceeds the breakpoint for the reduced sales charge. For example, if a purchaser already owns qualifying shares of any AIM Fund with a value of $20,000 and wishes to invest an additional $20,000 in a fund with a maximum initial sales charge of 5.50%, the reduced initial sales charge of 5.25% will apply to the full $20,000 purchase and not just to the $15,000 in excess of the $25,000 breakpoint.

To qualify for obtaining the discount applicable to a particular purchase, the purchaser or his dealer must furnish the Transfer Agent with a list of the account numbers and the names in which such accounts of the purchaser are registered at the time the purchase is made.

Rights of Accumulation are also available to holders of the Connecticut General Guaranteed Account, established for tax-qualified group annuities, for contracts purchased on or before June 30, 1992.

If an investor's new purchase of Class A shares of a Category I or II Fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund is at net asset value, the newly purchased shares will be subject to a CDSC if the investor redeems them prior to the end of the 18 month holding period. For new purchases of Class A shares of Category III Funds at net asset value made on and after November 15, 2001 and through October 30, 2002, the newly purchased shares will be subject to a CDSC if the investor redeems them prior to the end of the 12 month holding period.

OTHER REQUIREMENTS FOR REDUCTIONS IN INITIAL SALES CHARGES. As discussed above, investors or dealers seeking to qualify orders for a reduced initial sales charge must identify such orders and, if necessary, support their qualification for the reduced charge. AIM Distributors reserves the right to determine whether any purchaser is entitled to the reduced sales charge based on the definition of a Qualified Purchaser listed above. No person or entity may distribute shares of the AIM Funds without payment of the applicable sales charge other than to Qualified Purchasers.

Purchases of Class A shares of AIM Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Class A3 Shares of AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and AIM Tax-Free Intermediate Fund, AIM Cash Reserve Shares of AIM Money Market Fund, and Class B and Class C shares of AIM Floating Rate Fund and Investor Class shares of any fund will not be taken into account in determining whether a purchase qualifies for a reduction in initial sales charges.

PURCHASES OF CLASS A SHARES AT NET ASSET VALUE. AIM Distributors permits certain categories of persons to purchase Class A shares of the AIM Funds without paying an initial sales charge. These are typically categories of persons whose transactions involve little expense, such as persons who have a relationship with the funds or with AIM and certain programs for purchase.

66

AIM Distributors believes that it is appropriate and in the Funds' best interests that such persons, and certain other persons whose purchases result in relatively low expenses of distribution, be permitted to purchase shares through AIM Distributors without payment of a sales charge.

Accordingly, the following purchasers will not pay initial sales charges on purchases of Class A shares because there is a reduced sales effort involved in sales to these purchasers:

. AIM Management and its affiliates, or their clients;

. Any current or retired officer, director or employee (and members of their immediate family) of AIM Management, its affiliates or The AIM Family of Funds(R); any foundation, trust or employee benefit plan established exclusively for the benefit of, or by, such persons; and any deferred compensation plan for trustees of investment companies sponsoring A I M Management or its affiliates;

. Any current or retired officer, director, or employee (and members of their immediate family) of DST Systems, Inc. or Personix, a division of FISERV Solutions, Inc.;

. Sales representatives and employees (and members of their immediate family) of selling group members of financial institutions that have arrangements with such selling group members;

. Purchases through approved fee-based programs;

. Employer-sponsored retirement plans that are Qualified Purchasers, as defined above, provided that:

a. a plan's initial investment is at least $1 million;

b. there are at least 100 employees eligible to participate in the plan;

c. all plan transactions are executed through a single omnibus account per AIM Fund and the financial institution or service organization has entered into the appropriate agreement with the distributor; further provided that

d. retirement plans maintained pursuant to Section 403(b) of the Code are not eligible to purchase shares at NAV based on the aggregate investment made by the plan or the number of eligible employees unless the employer or plan sponsor is a tax-exempt organization operated pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Code; and

e. purchases of AIM Opportunities I Fund by all retirement plans are subject to initial sales charges;

. Shareholders of record of Advisor Class shares of AIM International Growth Fund or AIM Worldwide Growth Fund on February 12, 1999 who have continuously owned shares of the AIM Funds;

. Shareholders of record or discretionary advised clients of any investment advisor holding shares of AIM Weingarten Fund or AIM Constellation Fund on September 8, 1986, or of AIM Charter Fund on November 17, 1986, who have continuously owned shares having a market value of at least $500 and who purchase additional shares of the same Fund;

. Unitholders of G/SET series unit investment trusts investing proceeds from such trusts in shares of AIM Weingarten Fund or AIM Constellation Fund; provided, however, prior to the termination date of the trusts, a unitholder may invest proceeds from the redemption or repurchase of his

67

units only when the investment in shares of AIM Weingarten Fund and AIM Constellation Fund is effected within 30 days of the redemption or repurchase;

. A shareholder of a fund that merges or consolidates with an AIM Fund or that sells its assets to an AIM Fund in exchange for shares of an AIM Fund;

. Shareholders of the GT Global funds as of October 31, 1987 who since that date continually have owned shares of one or more of these funds;

. Certain former AMA Investment Advisers' shareholders who became shareholders of AIM Global Health Care Fund in October 1989, and who have continuously held shares in the GT Global funds since that time;

. Shareholders of record of Advisor Class shares of an AIM Fund on February 11, 2000 who have continuously owned shares of that AIM Fund, and who purchase additional shares of that AIM Fund;

. Shareholders of Investor Class shares of an AIM Fund;

. Qualified Tuition Programs created and maintained in accordance with Section 529 of the Code; and

. Insurance company separate accounts;

. Additional purchases of Class A shares by shareholders of record of Class K shares on October 21, 2005 whose Class K shares were converted to Class A shares.

. Retirement plan established exclusively for the benefit of an individual (specifically including, but not limited to, a Traditional IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, Solo 401(k), Keogh plan, or a tax-sheltered 403(b)(7) custodial account) if:

a. such plan is funded by a rollover of assets from an Employer-Sponsored Retirement Plan;

b. the account being funded by such rollover is to be maintained by the same trustee, custodian or administrator that maintained the plan from which the rollover distribution funding such rollover originated, or an affiliate thereof; and

c. the dealer of record with respect to the account being funded by such rollover is the same as the dealer of record with respect to the plan from which the rollover distribution funding such rollover originated, or an affiliate thereof.

. Transfers to IRAs that are attributable to AIM Fund investments held in 403(b)(7)s, SIMPLEs, SEPs, SARSEPs, Traditional or Roth IRAs; and

. Rollovers from AIM-held 403(b)(7)s, 401(K)s, SEPs, SIMPLEs, SARSEPs, Money Purchase Plans, and Profit Sharing Plans if the assets are transferred to an AIM IRA.

In addition, an investor may acquire shares of any of the AIM Funds at net asset value in connection with:

. the reinvestment of dividends and distributions from a Fund;

. exchanges of shares of certain Funds, as more fully described in the Prospectus;or

. a merger, consolidation or acquisition of assets of a Fund.

PAYMENTS TO DEALERS. AIM Distributors may elect to re-allow the entire initial sales charge to dealers for all sales with respect to which orders are placed with AIM Distributors during a particular period. Dealers to whom substantially the entire sales charge is re-allowed may be deemed to be "underwriters" as that term is defined under the 1933 Act.

The financial advisor through which you purchase your shares may receive all or a portion of the sales charges and Rule 12b-1 distribution fees discussed above. In addition to those payments, AIM Distributors or one or more of its corporate affiliates (collectively, the "ADI Affiliates") may make additional cash payments to financial advisors in connection with the promotion and sale of shares of AIM funds. ADI Affiliates make these payments from their own resources, from AIM Distributors' retention of underwriting concessions and from payments to AIM Distributors under Rule 12b-1 plans. These additional cash payments are described below. The categories described below are not mutually exclusive. The same financial advisor may receive payments under more than one or all categories. Most financial advisors that sell shares of AIM funds receive one or more types of these cash payments. Financial advisors negotiate the cash payments to be paid on an individual basis. Where services are provided, the costs of providing the services and the overall package of services provided may vary from one financial advisor to another. ADI Affiliates do not make an independent assessment of the cost of providing such services.

In this context, "financial advisors" include any broker, dealer, bank (including bank trust departments), registered investment advisor, financial planner, retirement plan administrator and any other financial intermediary having a selling, administration or similar agreement with ADI Affiliates.

REVENUE SHARING PAYMENTS. ADI Affiliates make revenue sharing payments as incentives to certain financial advisors to promote and sell shares of AIM funds. The benefits ADI Affiliates receive when they make these payments include, among other things, placing AIM funds on the financial advisor's funds sales system, placing AIM funds on the financial advisor's preferred or recommended fund list, and access (in some cases on a preferential basis over other competitors) to individual members of the financial advisor's sales force or to the financial advisor's management. Revenue sharing payments are sometimes referred to as "shelf space" payments because the payments compensate the financial advisor for including AIM funds in its fund sales system (on its "sales shelf"). ADI Affiliates compensate financial advisors differently depending typically on the level and/or type of considerations provided by the financial advisor. In addition, payments typically apply only to retail sales, and may not apply to other types of sales or assets (such as sales to retirement plans, qualified tuition programs, or fee based advisor programs - some of which may be generate certain other payments described below.)

The revenue sharing payments ADI Affiliates make may be calculated on sales of shares of AIM funds ("Sales-Based Payments"), in which case the total amount of such payments shall not exceed 0.25% of the public offering price of all shares sold by the financial advisor during the particular period. Such payments also may be calculated on the average daily net assets of the applicable AIM funds attributable to that particular financial advisor ("Asset-Based Payments"), in which case the total amount of such cash payments shall not exceed 0.25% per annum of those assets during a defined period. Sales-Based Payments primarily create incentives to make new sales of shares of AIM funds and Asset-Based Payments primarily create incentives to retain previously sold shares of AIM funds in investor accounts. ADI Affiliates may pay a financial advisor either or both Sales-Based Payments and Asset-Based Payments.

ADMINISTRATIVE AND PROCESSING SUPPORT PAYMENTS. ADI Affiliates also may make payments to certain financial advisors that sell AIM Fund shares for certain administrative services, including record keeping and sub-accounting shareholder accounts. Payments for these services typically do not exceed 0.25% of average annual assets or $19 per annum per shareholder account. ADI Affiliates also may make payments to certain financial advisors that sell AIM Fund shares in connection with client account maintenance support, statement preparation and transaction processing. The types of payments that ADI Affiliates may make under this category include, among others, payment of ticket charges per purchase or exchange order placed by a financial advisor, payment of networking fees of up to $12 per shareholder account maintained on certain mutual fund trading systems, or one-time payments for ancillary services

69

such as setting up funds on a financial advisor's mutual fund trading systems.

OTHER CASH PAYMENTS. From time to time, ADI Affiliates, at their expense, may provide additional compensation to financial advisors which sell or arrange for the sale of shares of the Fund. Such compensation provided by ADI Affiliates may include financial assistance to financial advisors that enable ADI Affiliates to participate in and/or present at conferences or seminars, sales or training programs for invited registered representatives and other employees, client entertainment, client and investor events, and other financial advisor-sponsored events, and travel expenses, including lodging incurred by registered representatives and other employees in connection with client prospecting, retention and due diligence trips. Other compensation may be offered to the extent not prohibited by state laws or any self-regulatory agency, such as the NASD, Inc. ("NASD"). ADI Affiliates make payments for entertainment events it deems appropriate, subject to ADI Affiliates guidelines and applicable law. These payments may vary depending upon the nature of the event or the relationship.

ADI Affiliates are motivated to make the payments described above since they promote the sale of AIM fund shares and the retention of those investments by clients of financial advisors. To the extent financial advisors sell more shares of AIM funds or retain shares of AIM funds in their clients' accounts, ADI Affiliates benefit from the incremental management and other fees paid to ADI Affiliates by the AIM funds with respect to those assets.

In certain cases these payments could be significant to the financial advisor. Your financial advisor may charge you additional fees or commissions other than those disclosed in this prospectus. You can ask your financial advisor about any payments it receives from ADI Affiliates or the AIM funds, as well as about fees and/or commissions it charges.

Purchases of Class B Shares

Class B shares are sold at net asset value, and are not subject to an initial sales charge. Instead, investors may pay a CDSC if they redeem their shares within six years after purchase. See the Prospectus for additional information regarding contingent deferred sales charges. AIM Distributors may pay sales commissions to dealers and institutions who sell Class B shares of the AIM Funds at the time of such sales. Payments will equal 4.00% of the purchase price and will consist of a sales commission equal to 3.75% plus an advance of the first year service fee of 0.25%.

Purchases of Class C Shares

Class C shares are sold at net asset value, and are not subject to an initial sales charge. Instead, investors may pay a CDSC if they redeem their shares within the first year after purchase (no CDSC applies to Class C shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund unless you exchange shares of another AIM Fund that are subject to a CDSC into AIM Short Term Bond Fund). See the Prospectus for additional information regarding this CDSC. AIM Distributors may pay sales commissions to dealers and institutions who sell Class C shares of the AIM Funds (except for Class C shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund) at the time of such sales. Payments will equal 1.00% of the purchase price and will consist of a sales commission of 0.75% plus an advance of the first year service fee of 0.25%. These commissions are not paid on sales to investors exempt from the CDSC, including shareholders of record of AIM Advisor Funds, Inc. on October 31, 1995, who purchase additional shares in any of the Funds on or after May 1, 1995, and in circumstances where AIM Distributors grants an exemption on particular transactions.

AIM Distributors may pay dealers and institutions who sell Class C shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund, an annual fee of 0.50% of average daily net assets. These payments will consist of an asset-based fee of 0.25% and a service fee of 0.25% and will commence immediately.

70

Purchases of Class K Shares

Class K shares are sold at net asset value, and are not subject to an initial sales charge. If AIM Distributors pays a concession to the dealer of record, however, the Class K shares are subject to a 0.70% CDSC at the time of redemption if all retirement plan assets are redeemed within one year from the date of the retirement plan's initial purchase. Class K shares are scheduled to convert to Class A shares at the close of business on October 21, 2005. The CDSC
[described above] will continue to apply if all retirement plan assets are redeemed within 12 months from the date of the retirement plan's initial purchase.

For purchases of Class K shares, AIM Distributors may make the following payments to dealers of record:

PERCENT OF CUMULATIVE PURCHASE

0.70% of the first $5 million
plus 0.45% of amounts in excess of $5 million

If the dealer of record receives the above payments, the trail commission will be paid out beginning in the 13th month. If no additional fee is paid to financial intermediaries, the trail commission will begin to accrue immediately.

Payments upon conversion of Class K Shares

After the conversion of Class K shares to Class A shares on October 21, 2005, AIM Distributors will continue to pay financial advisors 0.45% on Class K shares that are converted into Class A shares: 0.25% from the Class A shares' Rule 12b-1 plan fees and 0.20% from AIM Distributors' own resources, if the total annual payments attributable to the 0.20% fee equals or exceeds $2,000.

Purchases of Class R Shares

Class R shares are sold at net asset value, and are not subject to an initial sales charge. If AIM Distributors pays a concession to the dealer of record, however, the Class R shares are subject to a 0.75% CDSC at the time of redemption if all retirement plan assets are redeemed within one year from the date of the retirement plan's initial purchase. For purchases of Class R shares of Category I or II Funds, AIM Distributors may make the following payments to dealers of record provided that the applicable dealer of record is able to establish that the purchase of Class R shares is a new investment or a rollover from a retirement plan in which an AIM Fund was offered as an investment option:

PERCENT OF CUMULATIVE PURCHASES

0.75% of the first $5 million
plus 0.50% of amounts in excess of $5 million

With regard to any individual purchase of Class R shares, AIM Distributors may make payment to the dealer of record based on the cumulative total of purchases made by the same plan over the life of the plan's account(s). If the dealer of record receives the above payments, the trail commission will be paid out beginning in the 13th month. If no additional fee is paid to financial intermediaries, the trail commission will begin to accrue immediately.

71

Purchases of Investor Class Shares

Investor Class shares are sold at net asset value, and are not subject to an initial sales charge or to a CDSC. AIM Distributors may pay dealers and institutions an annual fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets and such payments will commence immediately.

Purchases of Institutional Class Shares

Institutional Class shares are sold at net asset value, and are not subject to an initial sales charge or to a CDSC.

Exchanges

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF EXCHANGES. Normally, shares of an AIM Fund to be acquired by exchange are purchased at their net asset value or applicable offering price, as the case may be, determined on the date that such request is received, but under unusual market conditions such purchases may be delayed for up to five business days if it is determined that a fund would be materially disadvantaged by an immediate transfer of the proceeds of the exchange. If a shareholder is exchanging into a fund paying daily dividends, and the release of the exchange proceeds is delayed for the foregoing five-day period, such shareholder will not begin to accrue dividends until the sixth business day after the exchange.

EXCHANGES BY TELEPHONE. AIM Distributors has made arrangements with certain dealers and investment advisory firms to accept telephone instructions to exchange shares between any of the AIM Funds. AIM Distributors reserves the right to impose conditions on dealers or investment advisors who make telephone exchanges of shares of the funds, including the condition that any such dealer or investment advisor enter into an agreement (which contains additional conditions with respect to exchanges of shares) with AIM Distributors. To exchange shares by telephone, a shareholder, dealer or investment advisor who has satisfied the foregoing conditions must call AIS at (800) 959-4246. If a shareholder is unable to reach AIS by telephone, he may also request exchanges by fax, telegraph or use overnight courier services to expedite exchanges by mail, which will be effective on the business day received by AIS as long as such request is received prior to the close of the customary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). AIS and AIM Distributors may in certain cases be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent transactions if they do not follow reasonable procedures for verification of telephone transactions. Such reasonable procedures may include recordings of telephone transactions (maintained for six months), requests for confirmation of the shareholder's Social Security Number and current address, and mailings of confirmations promptly after the transaction.

Redemptions

GENERAL. Shares of the AIM Funds may be redeemed directly through AIM Distributors or through any dealer who has entered into an agreement with AIM Distributors. In addition to the Funds' obligation to redeem shares, AIM Distributors may also repurchase shares as an accommodation to shareholders. To effect a repurchase, those dealers who have executed Selected Dealer Agreements with AIM Distributors must phone orders to the order desk of the Funds at (800) 959-4246 and guarantee delivery of all required documents in good order. A repurchase is effected at the net asset value per share of the applicable Fund next determined after the repurchase order is received. Such an arrangement is subject to timely receipt by AIS, the Funds' transfer agent, of all required documents in good order. If such documents are not received within a reasonable time after the order is placed, the order is subject to cancellation. While there is no charge imposed by a Fund or by AIM Distributors (other than any applicable contingent deferred sales charge) when shares are redeemed or repurchased, dealers may charge a fair service fee for handling the transaction.

SUSPENSION OF REDEMPTIONS. The right of redemption may be suspended or the date of payment postponed when (a) trading on the NYSE is restricted, as determined by applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, (b) the NYSE is closed for other than customary weekend and holiday closings, (c) the SEC has by order permitted such suspension, or (d) an emergency as determined by the SEC exists making disposition of portfolio securities or the valuation of the net assets of a Fund not reasonably practicable.

72

REDEMPTIONS BY TELEPHONE. By signing an account application form, an investor appoints AIS as his true and lawful attorney-in-fact to surrender for redemption any and all unissued shares held by AIS in the designated account(s), present or future, with full power of substitution in the premises. AIS and AIM Distributors are thereby authorized and directed to accept and act upon any telephone redemptions of shares held in any of the account(s) listed, from any person who requests the redemption. An investor acknowledges by signing the form that he understands and agrees that AIS and AIM Distributors may not be liable for any loss, expense or cost arising out of any telephone redemption requests effected in accordance with the authorization set forth in these instructions if they reasonably believe such request to be genuine, but may in certain cases be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent transactions. Procedures for verification of telephone transactions may include recordings of telephone transactions (maintained for six months), requests for confirmation of the shareholder's Social Security Number and current address, and mailings of confirmations promptly after the transactions. AIS reserves the right to cease to act as attorney-in-fact subject to this appointment, and AIM Distributors reserves the right to modify or terminate the telephone redemption privilege at any time without notice. An investor may elect not to have this privilege by marking the appropriate box on the application. Then any redemptions must be effected in writing by the investor.

SYSTEMATIC REDEMPTION PLAN. A Systematic Redemption Plan permits a shareholder of an AIM Fund to withdraw on a regular basis at least $50 per withdrawal. Under a Systematic Redemption Plan, all shares are to be held by AIS and all dividends and distributions are reinvested in shares of the applicable AIM Fund by AIS. To provide funds for payments made under the Systematic Redemption Plan, AIS redeems sufficient full and fractional shares at their net asset value in effect at the time of each such redemption.

Payments under a Systematic Redemption Plan constitute taxable events. Since such payments are funded by the redemption of shares, they may result in a return of capital and in capital gains or losses, rather than in ordinary income. Because sales charges are imposed on additional purchases of Class A shares, it is disadvantageous to effect such purchases while a Systematic Redemption Plan is in effect.

Each AIM Fund bears its share of the cost of operating the Systematic Redemption Plan.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charges Imposed upon Redemption of Shares

A CDSC may be imposed upon the redemption of Large Purchases of Class A shares of Category I and II Funds and AIM Short Term Bond Fund, upon the redemption of Class B shares or Class C shares (no CDSC applies to Class C shares of AIM Short Term Bond Fund unless you exchange shares of another AIM Fund that are subject to a CDSC into AIM Short Term Bond Fund) and, in certain circumstances, upon the redemption of Class K or Class R shares.

CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE EXCEPTIONS FOR LARGE PURCHASES OF CLASS A SHARES. An investor who has made a Large Purchase of Class A shares of a Category I, II, III Fund or AIM Short Term Bond Fund will not be subject to a CDSC upon the redemption of those shares in the following situations:

General Information Regarding Purchases, Exchanges and Redemptions

GOOD ORDER. Purchase, exchange and redemption orders must be received in good order. To be in good order, an investor must supply AIS with all required information and documentation, including signature guarantees when required. In addition, if a purchase of shares is made by check, the check must be received in good order. This means that the check must be properly completed and signed, and legible to AIS in its sole discretion.

AUTHORIZED AGENTS. AIS and AIM Distributors may authorize agents to accept purchase and redemption orders that are in good form on behalf of the AIM Funds. In certain cases, these authorized agents are authorized to designate other intermediaries to accept purchase and redemption orders on a Fund's behalf. A Fund will be deemed to have received the purchase or redemption order when the Fund's authorized agent or its designee accepts the order. The order will be priced at the net asset value next determined after the order is accepted by a Fund's authorized agent or its designee.

TIMING OF PURCHASE ORDERS. It is the responsibility of the dealer or other financial intermediary to ensure that all orders are transmitted on a timely basis to AIS. Any loss resulting from the failure of the dealer or financial intermediary to submit an order within the prescribed time frame will be borne by that dealer or financial intermediary. If a check used to purchase shares does not clear, or if any investment order must be canceled due to nonpayment, the investor will be responsible for any resulting loss to an AIM Fund or to AIM Distributors.

76

SIGNATURE GUARANTEES. In addition to those circumstances listed in the "Shareholder Information" section of each Fund's prospectus, signature guarantees are required in the following situations: (1) requests to transfer the registration of shares to another owner; (2) telephone exchange and telephone redemption authorization forms; (3) changes in previously designated wiring or electronic funds transfer instructions; and (4) written redemptions or exchanges of shares previously reported as lost, whether or not the redemption amount is under $250,000 or the proceeds are to be sent to the address of record. AIM Funds may waive or modify any signature guarantee requirements at any time.

Acceptable guarantors include banks, broker-dealers, credit unions, national securities exchanges, savings associations and any other organization, provided that such institution or organization qualifies as an "eligible guarantor institution" as that term is defined in rules adopted by the SEC, and further provided that such guarantor institution is listed in one of the reference guides contained in AIS' current Signature Guarantee Standards and Procedures, such as certain domestic banks, credit unions, securities dealers, or securities exchanges. AIS will also accept signatures with either: (1) a signature guaranteed with a medallion stamp of the STAMP Program, or (2) a signature guaranteed with a medallion stamp of the NYSE Medallion Signature Program, provided that in either event, the amount of the transaction involved does not exceed the surety coverage amount indicated on the medallion. For information regarding whether a particular institution or organization qualifies as an "eligible guarantor institution," an investor should contact the Client Services Department of AIS.

TRANSACTIONS BY TELEPHONE. By signing an account application form, an investor appoints AIS as his true and lawful attorney-in-fact to surrender for redemption any and all unissued shares held by AIS in the designated account(s), or in any other account with any of the AIM Funds, present or future, which has the identical registration as the designated account(s), with full power of substitution in the premises. AIS and AIM Distributors are thereby authorized and directed to accept and act upon any telephone redemptions of shares held in any of the account(s) listed, from any person who requests the redemption proceeds to be applied to purchase shares in any one or more of the AIM Funds, provided that such fund is available for sale and provided that the registration and mailing address of the shares to be purchased are identical to the registration of the shares being redeemed. An investor acknowledges by signing the form that he understands and agrees that AIS and AIM Distributors may not be liable for any loss, expense or cost arising out of any telephone exchange requests effected in accordance with the authorization set forth in these instructions if they reasonably believe such request to be genuine, but may in certain cases be liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent transactions. Procedures for verification of telephone transactions may include recordings of telephone transactions (maintained for six months), requests for confirmation of the shareholder's Social Security Number and current address, and mailings of confirmations promptly after the transactions. AIS reserves the right to modify or terminate the telephone exchange privilege at any time without notice. An investor may elect not to have this privilege by marking the appropriate box on the application. Then any exchanges must be effected in writing by the investor.

INTERNET TRANSACTIONS. An investor may effect transactions in his account through the internet by establishing a Personal Identification Number (PIN). By establishing a PIN, the investor acknowledges and agrees that neither AIS nor AIM Distributors will be liable for any loss, expense or cost arising out of any internet transaction effected by them in accordance with any instructions submitted by a user who transmits the PIN as authentication of his or her identity. Procedures for verification of internet transactions include requests for confirmation of the shareholder's personal identification number and mailing of confirmations promptly after the transactions. The investor also acknowledges that the ability to effect internet transactions may be terminated at any time by the AIM Funds.

ABANDONED PROPERTY. It is the responsibility of the investor to ensure that AIS maintains a correct address for his account(s). An incorrect address may cause an investor's account statements and other mailings to be returned to AIS. Upon receiving returned mail, AIS will attempt to locate the investor or rightful owner of the account. If unsuccessful, AIS will retain a shareholder locator service with a national information database to conduct periodic searches for the investor. If the search firm is unable to locate the investor, the search firm will determine whether the investor's account has legally been abandoned. AIS is legally obligated to escheat (or transfer) abandoned property to the appropriate state's unclaimed

77

property administrator in accordance with statutory requirements. The investor's last known address of record determines which state has jurisdiction.

OFFERING PRICE

The following formula may be used to determine the public offering price per Class A share of an investor's investment:

Net Asset Value / (1 - Sales Charge as % of Offering Price ) = Offering Price.

For example, at the close of business on March 31, 2005, AIM Energy Fund - Class A shares had a net asset value per share of $32.86. The offering price, assuming an initial sales charge of 5.50%, therefore was $34.77.

Shares of the Institutional Class are offered at net asset value.

Calculation of Net Asset Value

Each Fund determines its net asset value per share once daily as of the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each business day of the Fund. In the event the NYSE closes early (i.e., before 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on a particular day, each Fund determines its net asset value per share as of the close of the NYSE on such day. For purposes of determining net asset value per share, the Fund will generally use futures and options contract closing prices which are available fifteen (15) minutes after the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE. The Funds determine net asset value per share by dividing the value of a Fund's securities, cash and other assets (including interest accrued but not collected) attributable to a particular class, less all its liabilities (including accrued expenses and dividends payable) attributable to that class, by the total number of shares outstanding of that class. Determination of a Fund's net asset value per share is made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The net asset value for shareholder transactions may be different than the net asset value reported in the Fund's financial statements due to adjustments required by generally accepted accounting principles made to the net asset value of the Fund at period end.

Each equity security (excluding convertible bonds) held by a Fund is valued at its last sales price on the exchange where the security is principally traded or, lacking any sales on a particular day, the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but not including securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market System) is valued on the basis of prices furnished by independent pricing vendors or market makers. Each equity security reported on the NASDAQ National Market System is valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") or absent a NOCP, at the closing bid price on that day; option contracts are valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices on the exchange where the contracts are principally traded; futures contracts are valued at final settlement price quotations from the primary exchange on which they are traded. Debt securities (including convertible bonds) are fair valued using an evaluated quote on the basis of prices provided by an independent pricing vendor. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing vendor may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to special securities, dividend rate, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, individual trading characteristics and other market data.

Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods are valued based upon quotes furnished by independent sources and are valued at the last bid price in the case of equity securities and in the case of debt obligations, the mean between the last bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not available, including situations where market quotations are unreliable, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Trust's officers in accordance with procedures approved by the Board. Short-term investments are valued at amortized cost when the security has 60 days or less to maturity.

78

Foreign securities are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using exchange rates as of the close of the NYSE. Trading in certain foreign securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of the close of the respective markets. Events affecting the values of such foreign securities may occur between the times at which the particular foreign market closes and the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE. If an issuer specific event has occurred that AIM determines, in its judgment, is likely to have affected the closing price of a foreign security, it will price the security at fair value. Issuer specific events may include a merger or insolvency, events which affect a geographical area or an industry segment, such as political events or natural disasters, or market events, such as a significant movement in the U.S. market. AIM also relies on a screening process from a pricing vendor to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. For foreign securities where AIM believes, at the approved degree of certainty, that the price is not reflective of current market value, AIM will use the indication of fair value from the pricing vendor to determine the fair value of the security. The pricing vendor, pricing methodology or degree of certainty may change from time to time. Multiple factors may be considered by the pricing vendor in determining adjustments to reflect fair value and may include information relating to sector indices, ADRs, domestic and foreign index futures, and exchange-traded funds.

Fund securities primarily traded in foreign markets may be traded in such markets on days that are not business days of the Fund. Because the net asset value per share of each Fund is determined only on business days of the Fund, the value of the portfolio securities of a Fund that invests in foreign securities may change on days when an investor cannot exchange or redeem shares of the Fund.

REDEMPTION IN KIND

Although the Funds generally intend to pay redemption proceeds solely in cash, the Funds reserve the right to determine, in their sole discretion, whether to satisfy redemption requests by making payment in securities or other property (known as a redemption in kind). For instance, a Fund may make a redemption in kind if a cash redemption would disrupt its operations or performance. Securities that will be delivered as payment in redemptions in kind will be valued using the same methodologies that the Fund typically utilizes in valuing such securities. Shareholders receiving such securities are likely to incur transaction and brokerage costs on their subsequent sales of such securities, and the securities may increase or decrease in value until the shareholder sells them. The Trust, on behalf of the Funds made an election under Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act (a "Rule 18f-1 Election") and therefore, the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, is obligated to redeem for cash all shares presented to such Fund for redemption by any one shareholder in an amount up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of that Fund's net assets in any 90-day period. The Rule 18f-1 Election is irrevocable while Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act is in effect unless the SEC by order permits withdrawal of such Rule 18f-1 Election.

BACKUP WITHHOLDING

Accounts submitted without a correct, certified taxpayer identification number or, alternatively, a completed Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Form W-8 (for non-resident aliens) or Form W-9 (certifying exempt status) accompanying the registration information will generally be subject to backup withholding.

Each AIM Fund, and other payers, generally must withhold, 28% of redemption payments and reportable dividends (whether paid or accrued) in the case of any shareholder who fails to provide the Fund with a taxpayer identification number ("TIN") and a certification that he is not subject to backup withholding.

An investor is subject to backup withholding if:

1. the investor fails to furnish a correct TIN to the Fund;
2. the IRS notifies the Fund that the investor furnished an incorrect TIN;

79

3. the investor or the Fund is notified by the IRS that the investor is subject to backup withholding because the investor failed to report all of the interest and dividends on such investor's tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only);
4. the investor fails to certify to the Fund that the investor is not subject to backup withholding under (3) above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only); or
5. the investor does not certify his TIN. This applies only to non-exempt mutual fund accounts opened after 1983.

Interest and dividend payments are subject to backup withholding in all five situations discussed above. Redemption proceeds and long-term gain distributions are subject to backup withholding only if (1), (2) or (5) above applies.

Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding and information reporting. AIM or AIS will not provide Form 1099 to those payees.

Investors should contact the IRS if they have any questions concerning withholding.

IRS PENALTIES - Investors who do not supply the AIM Funds with a correct TIN will be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS unless such failure is due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect. If an investor falsifies information on this form or makes any other false statement resulting in no backup withholding on an account which should be subject to backup withholding, such investor may be subject to a $500 penalty imposed by the IRS and to certain criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.

NONRESIDENT ALIENS - Nonresident alien individuals and foreign entities are not subject to the backup withholding previously discussed, but must certify their foreign status by attaching IRS Form W-8 to their application. Form W-8 generally remains in effect for a period starting on the date the Form is signed and ending on the last day of the third succeeding calendar year. Such shareholders may, however, be subject to federal income tax withholding at a 30% rate on ordinary income dividends and other distributions. Under applicable treaty law, residents of treaty countries may qualify for a reduced rate of withholding or a withholding exemption.

OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Funds' independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for auditing the financial statements of the Funds. The Audit Committee of the Board appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, 1201 Louisiana Street, Suite 2900, Houston, Texas 77002, as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the financial statements of the Funds. Such appointment was ratified and approved by the Board.

CUSTODIAN

State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "custodian"), 225 Franklin Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, is the custodian of all securities and cash of the Funds. J. P. Morgan Chase Bank of Texas, N.A., 712 Main, Houston, Texas 77002, serves as sub-custodian for purchases of shares of the Funds. The Bank of New York, 2 Hanson Place, Brooklyn, New York 11217-1431, also serves as sub-custodian to facilitate cash management.

The Custodian is authorized to establish separate accounts in foreign countries and to cause foreign securities owned by the Funds to be held outside the United States in branches of U.S. banks and, to the extent permitted by applicable regulations, in certain foreign banks and securities depositories. AIM is responsible for selecting eligible foreign securities depositories and for assessing the risks associated with investing in foreign countries, including the risk of using eligible foreign securities

80

depositories in a country. The Custodian is responsible for monitoring eligible foreign securities depositories.

Under its contract with the Trust, the Custodian maintains the portfolio securities of the Funds, administers the purchases and sales of portfolio securities, collects interest and dividends and other distributions made on the securities held in the portfolios of the Funds and performs other ministerial duties. These services do not include any supervisory function over management or provide any protection against any possible depreciation of assets.

TRANSFER AGENT

AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AIS"), 11 Greenway Plaza, Suite 100, Houston, TX 77046, is the Trust's transfer agent, registrar, and dividend disbursing agent.

The Transfer Agency and Service Agreement (the "TA Agreement") between the Trust and AIS provides that AIS will perform certain shareholder services for the Funds. For servicing accounts holding Class A, A3, B, C, K, R, AIM Cash Reserve and Investor Class Shares, the TA Agreement provides that the Trust on behalf of the Funds will pay AIS at a rate of $17.08 per open shareholder account plus certain out of pocket expenses, whether such account is serviced directly by AIS or by a third party pursuant to a sub-transfer agency, omnibus account service, sub-accounting, or networking agreement. This fee is paid monthly at the rate of 1/12 of the annual fee and is based upon the number of open shareholder accounts during each month.

For servicing accounts holding Institutional Class Shares, the TA Agreement provides that the Trust on behalf of the Funds will pay AIS a fee equal to $2.00 per trade executed to be billed monthly plus certain out of pocket expenses. In addition, for servicing accounts holding Institutional Class Shares, the Trust on behalf of the Funds, is required to reimburse AIS for servicing such accounts to the extent that an account is serviced by a third party pursuant to a sub-transfer agency, omnibus account service, sub-accounting, or networking agreement. AIS has agreed to waive the right to collect any fee or reimbursement to which it is entitled, to the extent that such fee or reimbursement would cause the fees and expenses incurred by the Institutional Class Shares to exceed 0.10% of the average net assets attributable to such class of the Funds.

LEGAL COUNSEL

Legal matters of the Trust have been passed upon by Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll, LLP 1735 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103-7599.

BROKERAGE ALLOCATION AND OTHER PRACTICES

BROKERAGE TRANSACTIONS

AIM makes decisions to buy and sell securities for each Fund, selects broker-dealers (each, a "Broker"), effects the Funds' investment portfolio transactions, allocates brokerage fees in such transactions and, where applicable, negotiates commissions and spreads on transactions. AIM's primary consideration in effecting a security transaction is to obtain best execution, which AIM defines as prompt and efficient execution of the transaction at the best obtainable price with payment of commissions, mark-ups or mark-downs which are reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage services provided by the Broker. While AIM seeks reasonably competitive commission rates, the Funds may not pay the lowest commission or spread available. See "Broker Selection" below.

Some of the securities in which the Funds invest are traded in over-the-counter markets. Portfolio transactions placed in such markets may be effected on a principal basis at net prices without commissions, but which include compensation to the Broker in the form of a mark up or mark down, or on an agency basis, which involves the payment of negotiated brokerage commissions to the Broker,

81

including electronic communication networks. Purchases of underwritten issues include a commission or concession paid by the issuer (not the Funds) to the underwriter. Purchases of money market instruments may be made directly from issuers without the payment of commissions.

Traditionally, commission rates have not been negotiated on stock markets outside the United States. Although in recent years many overseas stock markets have adopted a system of negotiated rates, a number of markets maintain an established schedule of minimum commission rates.

COMMISSIONS

During the last three fiscal years ended March 31, none of the Funds paid brokerage commissions to Brokers affiliated with the Funds, AIM, AIM Distributors, or any affiliates of such entities.

The Funds may engage in certain principal and agency transactions with banks and their affiliates that own 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of an AIM Fund, provided the conditions of an exemptive order received by the AIM Funds from the SEC are met. In addition, a Fund may purchase or sell a security from or to certain other AIM Funds or other accounts (and may invest in the Affiliated Money Market Funds) provided the Funds follow procedures adopted by the Boards of the various AIM Funds, including the Trust. These inter-fund transactions do not generate brokerage commissions but may result in custodial fees or taxes or other related expenses.

BROKER SELECTION

AIM's primary consideration in selecting Brokers to execute portfolio transactions for a Fund is to obtain best execution. In selecting a Broker to execute a portfolio transaction in equity securities for a Fund, AIM considers the full range and quality of a Broker's services, including the value of research and/or brokerage services provided, execution capability, commission rate, willingness to commit capital, anonymity and responsiveness. AIM's primary consideration when selecting a Broker to execute a portfolio transaction in fixed income securities for a Fund is the Broker's ability to deliver or sell the relevant fixed income securities; however, AIM will also consider the various factors listed above. In each case, the determinative factor is not the lowest commission or spread available but whether the transaction represents the best qualitative execution for the Fund. AIM will not select Brokers based upon their promotion or sale of Fund shares.

In choosing Brokers to execute portfolio transactions for the Funds, AIM may select Brokers that provide brokerage and/or research services ("Soft Dollar Products") to the Funds and/or the other accounts over which AIM and its affiliates have investment discretion. Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, provides that AIM, under certain circumstances, lawfully may cause an account to pay a higher commission than the lowest available. Under Section 28(e)(1), AIM must make a good faith determination that the commissions paid are "reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided ... viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or [AIM's] overall responsibilities with respect to the accounts as to which [it] exercises investment discretion." The services provided by the Broker also must lawfully and appropriately assist AIM in the performance of its investment decision-making responsibilities. Accordingly, a Fund may pay a Broker higher commissions than those available from another Broker in recognition of such Broker's provision of Soft Dollar Products to AIM.

AIM faces a potential conflict of interest when it uses client trades to obtain Soft Dollar Products. This conflict exists because AIM is able to use the Soft Dollar Products to manage client accounts without paying cash for the Soft Dollar Products, which reduces AIM's expenses to the extent that AIM would have purchased such products had they not been provided by Brokers. Section 28(e) permits AIM to use Soft Dollar Products for the benefit of any account it manages. Certain AIM-managed accounts may generate soft dollars used to purchase Soft Dollar Products that ultimately benefit other AIM-managed accounts, effectively cross subsidizing the other AIM-managed accounts that benefit directly from the product. AIM may not use all of the Soft Dollar Products provided by Brokers through which a Fund effects securities transactions in connection with managing such Fund.

82

AIM and certain of its affiliates presently engage in the following instances of cross-subsidization:

1. Fixed income funds normally do not generate soft dollar commissions to pay for Soft Dollar Products. Therefore, soft dollar commissions used to pay for Soft Dollar Products which are used to manage the fixed income AIM Funds are generated entirely by equity AIM Funds and other equity client accounts managed by AIM or A I M Capital Management, Inc. ("AIM Capital"), a subsidiary of AIM. In other words, the fixed income AIM Funds are cross-subsidized by the equity AIM Funds, in that the fixed income AIM Funds receive the benefit of Soft Dollar Products services for which they do not pay.

2. The investment models used to manage many of the AIM Funds are also used to manage other accounts of AIM and/or AIM Capital. The Soft Dollar Products obtained through the use of soft dollar commissions generated by the transactions of the AIM Funds and/or other accounts managed by AIM and/or AIM Capital are used to maintain the investment models relied upon by both of these advisory affiliates.

This type of cross-subsidization occurs in both directions. For example, soft dollar commissions generated by transactions of the AIM Funds and/or other accounts managed by AIM are used for Soft Dollar Products which may benefit those AIM Funds and/or accounts as well as accounts managed by AIM Capital. Additionally, soft dollar commissions generated by transactions of accounts managed by AIM Capital are used for Soft Dollar Products which may benefit those accounts as well as accounts managed by AIM. In certain circumstances, AIM Capital accounts may indicate that their transactions should not be used to generate soft dollar commissions but may still receive the benefits of Soft Dollar Products received by AIM or AIM Capital.

3. Some of the common investment models used to manage various Funds and other accounts of AIM and/or AIM Capital are also used to manage accounts of AIM Private Asset Management, Inc. ("APAM"), another AIM subsidiary. The Soft Dollar Products obtained through the use of soft dollar commissions generated by the transactions of the Funds and/or other accounts managed by AIM and/or AIM Capital are used to maintain the investment models relied upon by AIM, AIM Capital and APAM. This cross-subsidization occurs in only one direction. Most of APAM's accounts do not generate soft dollar commissions which can be used to purchase Soft Dollar Products. The soft dollar commissions generated by transactions of the Funds and/or other accounts managed by AIM and/or AIM Capital are used for Soft Dollar Products which may benefit the accounts managed by AIM, AIM Capital and APAM; however, APAM does not provide any soft dollar research benefit to the Funds and/or other accounts managed by AIM or AIM Capital.

AIM and AIM Capital attempt to reduce or eliminate the potential conflicts of interest concerning the use of Soft Dollar Products by directing client trades for Soft Dollar Products only if AIM and AIM Capital conclude that the Broker supplying the product is capable of providing best execution.

Certain Soft Dollar Products may be available directly from a vendor on a hard dollar basis; other Soft Dollar Products are available only through Brokers in exchange for soft dollars. AIM uses soft dollars to purchase two types of Soft Dollar Products:

. proprietary research created by the Broker executing the trade, and
. other products created by third parties that are supplied to AIM through the Broker executing the trade.

Proprietary research consists primarily of traditional research reports, recommendations and similar materials produced by the in house research staffs of broker-dealer firms. This research includes evaluations and recommendations of specific companies or industry groups, as well as analyses of general economic and market conditions and trends, market data, contacts and other related information

83

and assistance. AIM periodically rates the quality of proprietary research produced by various Brokers. Based on the evaluation of the quality of information that AIM receives from each Broker, AIM develops an estimate of each Broker's share of AIM clients' commission dollars. AIM attempts to direct trades to the firms to meet these estimates.

AIM also uses soft dollars to acquire products from third parties that are supplied to AIM through Brokers executing the trades or other Brokers who "step in" to a transaction and receive a portion of the brokerage commission for the trade. AIM may from time to time instruct the executing Broker to allocate or "step out" a portion of a transaction to another Broker. The Broker to which AIM has "stepped out" would then settle and complete the designated portion of the transaction, and the executing Broker would settle and complete the remaining portion of the transaction that has not been "stepped out." Each Broker may receive a commission or brokerage fee with respect to that portion of the transaction that it settles and completes.

Soft Dollar Products received from Brokers supplement AIM's own research (and the research of certain of its affiliates), and may include the following types of products and services:

. Database Services - comprehensive databases containing current and/or historical information on companies and industries and indices. Examples include historical securities prices, earnings estimates and financial data. These services may include software tools that allow the user to search the database or to prepare value-added analyses related to the investment process (such as forecasts and models used in the portfolio management process).

. Quotation/Trading/News Systems - products that provide real time market data information, such as pricing of individual securities and information on current trading, as well as a variety of news services.

. Economic Data/Forecasting Tools - various macro economic forecasting tools, such as economic data or currency and political forecasts for various countries or regions.

. Quantitative/Technical Analysis - software tools that assist in quantitative and technical analysis of investment data.

. Fundamental/Industry Analysis - industry specific fundamental investment research.

. Fixed Income Security Analysis - data and analytical tools that pertain specifically to fixed income securities. These tools assist in creating financial models, such as cash flow projections and interest rate sensitivity analyses, which are relevant to fixed income securities.

. Other Specialized Tools - other specialized products, such as consulting analyses, access to industry experts, and distinct investment expertise such as forensic accounting or custom built investment-analysis software.

If AIM determines that any service or product has a mixed use (i.e., it also serves functions that do not assist the investment decision-making or trading process), AIM will allocate the costs of such service or product accordingly in its reasonable discretion. AIM will allocate brokerage commissions to Brokers only for the portion of the service or product that AIM determines assists it in the investment decision-making or trading process and will pay for the remaining value of the product or service in cash.

Outside research assistance is useful to AIM since the Brokers used by AIM tend to provide more in-depth analysis of a broader universe of securities and other matters than AIM's staff follows. In addition, such services provide AIM with a diverse perspective on financial markets. Some Brokers may indicate that the provision of research services is dependent upon the generation of certain specified levels of commissions and underwriting concessions by AIM's clients, including the Funds. However, the Funds are not under any obligation to deal with any Broker in the execution of transactions in portfolio securities.

84

In some cases, Soft Dollar Products are available only from the Broker providing them. In other cases, Soft Dollar Products may be obtainable from alternative sources in return for cash payments. AIM believes that because Broker research supplements rather than replaces AIM's research, the receipt of such research tends to improve the quality of AIM's investment advice. The advisory fee paid by the Funds is not reduced because AIM receives such services. To the extent the Funds' portfolio transactions are used to obtain Soft Dollar Products, the brokerage commissions obtained by the Funds might exceed those that might otherwise have been paid.

AIM may determine target levels of brokerage business with various Brokers on behalf of its clients (including the Funds) over a certain time period. The target levels will be based upon the following factors, among others: (1) the execution services provided by the Broker; and (2) the research services provided by the Broker. Portfolio transactions may be effected through Brokers that recommend the Funds to their clients, or that act as agent in the purchase of a Fund's shares for their clients, provided that AIM believes such Brokers provide best execution and such transactions are executed in compliance with AIM's policy against using directed brokerage to compensate Brokers for promoting or selling AIM Fund shares. AIM will not enter into a binding commitment with Brokers to place trades with such Brokers involving brokerage commissions in precise amounts.

85

ALLOCATION OF PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

AIM and its affiliates manage numerous AIM Funds and other accounts. Some of these accounts may have investment objectives similar to the Funds. Occasionally, identical securities will be appropriate for investment by one of the Funds and by another Fund or one or more other accounts. However, the position of each account in the same security and the length of time that each account may hold its investment in the same security may vary. The timing and amount of purchase by each account will also be determined by its cash position. If the purchase or sale of securities is consistent with the investment policies of the Fund(s) and one or more other accounts, and is considered at or about the same time, AIM will allocate transactions in such securities among the Fund(s) and these accounts on a pro rata basis based on order size or in such other manner believed by AIM to be fair and equitable. AIM may combine such transactions, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, to obtain the most favorable execution. Simultaneous transactions could, however, adversely affect a Fund's ability to obtain or dispose of the full amount of a security which it seeks to purchase or sell.

ALLOCATION OF EQUITY INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING ("IPO") TRANSACTIONS

Certain of the AIM Funds or other accounts managed by AIM may become interested in participating in equity IPOs. Purchases of equity IPOs by one AIM Fund or other accounts may also be considered for purchase by one or more other AIM Funds or accounts. AIM shall combine indications of interest for equity IPOs for all AIM Funds and accounts participating in purchase transactions for that IPO. When the full amount of all IPO orders for such AIM Funds and accounts cannot be filled completely, AIM shall allocate such transactions in accordance with the following procedures:

AIM will determine the eligibility of each AIM Fund and account that seeks to participate in a particular equity IPO by reviewing a number of factors, including market capitalization/liquidity suitability and sector/style suitability of the investment with the AIM Fund's or account's investment objective, policies, strategies and current holdings. AIM will allocate equity securities issued in IPOs to eligible AIM Funds and accounts on a pro rata basis based on order size.

Each Fund has elected to be taxed under Subchapter M of the Code as a regulated investment company and intends to maintain its qualifications as such in each of its taxable years. As a regulated investment company, each Fund is not subject to federal income tax on the portion of its net investment income (i.e., taxable interest, dividends and other taxable ordinary income, net of expenses) and capital gain net income (i.e., the excess of capital gains over capital losses) that it distributes to shareholders, provided that it distributes (i) at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (i.e., net investment income, net foreign currency ordinary gain or loss and the excess of net short-term capital gain over net long-term capital loss) and (ii) at least 90% of the excess of its tax-exempt interest income under Code Section 103(a) over its deductions disallowed under Code Sections 265 and 171(a)(2) for the taxable year (the "Distribution Requirement"), and satisfies certain other requirements of the Code that are described below. Distributions by a Fund made during the taxable year or, under specified circumstances, within twelve months after the close of the taxable year, will be considered distributions of income and gain of the taxable year and can therefore satisfy the Distribution Requirement.

In addition to satisfying the Distribution Requirement, a regulated investment company must derive at least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest, certain payments with respect to securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities, other income (including, but not limited to, gains from options, futures or forward contracts) derived from its business of investing in such stock or securities and net income derived from certain publicly traded partnerships (the "Income Requirement"). Under certain circumstances, a Fund may be required to sell portfolio holdings to meet the Income Requirement.

In addition to satisfying the Distribution and Income Requirements described above, each Fund must satisfy an asset diversification test in order to qualify as a regulated investment company. Under this test, at the close of each quarter of each Fund's taxable year, at least 50% of the value of the Fund's assets must consist of cash and cash items, U.S. Government securities, securities of other regulated investment companies, and securities of other issuers, as to which the Fund has not invested more than 5% of the value of the Fund's total assets in securities of such issuer and as to which the Fund does not hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and no more than 25% of the value of its total assets may be invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than U.S. Government securities and securities of other regulated investment companies), of two or more issuers which the Fund controls and which are engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses; or collectively, in securities of certain publicly traded partnerships.

If for any taxable year a Fund does not qualify as a regulated investment company, all of its taxable income (including its net capital gain) will be subject to tax at regular corporate rates without any deduction for distributions to shareholders, and such distributions will be taxable as ordinary dividends to

87

the extent of such Fund's current and accumulated earnings and profits. Such distributions generally will be eligible for the dividends received deduction in the case of corporate shareholders.

Dividends paid by a Fund from net investment income as well as distributions of net realized short-term capital gain and net realized gain from certain foreign currency transactions are taxable for federal income tax purposes as ordinary income to shareholders. All dividends and other distributions, to the extent of a Fund's earnings and profits, are taxable, whether such dividends and distributions are reinvested in additional shares or paid in cash. Dividends eligible for the dividends-received deduction will be limited to the aggregate amount of qualifying dividends that a Fund derives from its portfolio investments.

Ordinary income dividends paid by a Fund to individuals and other noncorporate taxpayers will be treated as qualified dividend income that is subject to tax at a maximum rate of 15% to the extent of the amount of qualifying dividends received by the Fund from domestic corporations and from foreign corporations that are either incorporated in a possession of the United States, or are eligible for benefits under certain income tax treaties with the United States that include an exchange of information program. In addition, qualifying dividends include dividends paid with respect to stock of a foreign corporation that is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. However, dividends received by a Fund from foreign personal holding companies, foreign investment companies or PFICs are not qualifying dividends. If the qualifying dividend income received by a Fund is equal to 95% (or a greater percentage) of a Fund's gross income (exclusive of net capital gain) in any taxable year, all of the ordinary income dividends paid by a Fund will be qualifying dividend income.

A Fund realizes a capital gain or loss when it sells a portfolio security for more or less than it paid for that security. Capital gain and loss are divided into short-term and long-term, depending on how long the Fund held the security which gave rise to the gain or loss. If the security was held one year or less the gain or loss is considered short-term, while holding a security for more than one year will generate a long-term gain or loss. Short-term capital gain is included with income from dividends and interest as ordinary income and is paid to shareholders as dividends, as discussed above. If total long-term gains on sales exceed total short-term losses, including any losses carried forward from previous years, a Fund will have a net capital gain. .

A Fund may either retain or distribute to shareholders its net capital gain for each taxable year. Each Fund currently intends to distribute any such amounts. If net capital gain is distributed and designated as a capital gain dividend, it will be taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gain (currently taxable at a maximum rate of 15% for noncorporate shareholders) regardless of the length of time the shareholder has held his shares or whether such gain was recognized by the Fund prior to the date on which the shareholder acquired his shares. Such distributions are not eligible for the dividends-received deduction. Conversely, if a Fund elects to retain its net capital gain, the Fund will be taxed thereon (except to the extent of any available capital loss carry forwards) at the 35% corporate tax rate. If a Fund elects to retain its net capital gain, it is expected that the Fund also will elect to have shareholders treated as if each received a distribution of its pro rata share of such gain, with the result that each shareholder will be required to report its pro rata share of such gain on its tax return as long-term capital gain, will receive a refundable tax credit for its pro rata share of tax paid by the Fund on the gain, and will increase the tax basis for its shares by an amount equal to the deemed distribution less the tax credit.

After the end of each fiscal year, each Fund sends information to shareholders regarding the amount and character of dividends paid during the year.

If the net asset value of a Fund's shares should be reduced below a shareholder's cost as a result of a distribution, such distribution would be taxable to the shareholder although a portion would be a return of invested capital. Accordingly, if shares of a Fund are purchased shortly before a distribution, a portion of the purchase price for the shares may then be returned to the shareholder as a taxable dividend or capital gain.

If it invests in foreign securities, a Fund may be subject to the withholding of foreign taxes on dividends or interest it receives on foreign securities. Foreign taxes withheld will be treated as an expense of the Fund

88

unless the Fund meets the qualifications and makes the election to enable it to pass these taxes through to shareholders for use by them as a foreign tax credit or deduction. Tax conventions between certain countries and the United States may reduce or eliminate such taxes.

A Fund may invest in the stock of "passive foreign investment companies" ("PFICs"). A PFIC is a foreign corporation that, in general, meets either of the following tests: (1) at least 75% of its gross income is passive or (2) an average value of at least 50% of its assets produce, or are held for the production of, passive income. Each Fund intends to "mark-to-market" its stock in any PFIC. In this context, "marking-to-market" means including in ordinary income for each taxable year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the PFIC stock over the Fund's adjusted basis in the PFIC stock as of the end of the year. In certain circumstances, a Fund will also be allowed to deduct from ordinary income the excess, if any, of its adjusted basis in PFIC stock over the fair market value of the PFIC stock as of the end of the year. The deduction will only be allowed to the extent of any PFIC mark-to-market gains recognized as ordinary income in prior years. A Fund's adjusted tax basis in each PFIC stock for which it makes this election will be adjusted to reflect the amount of income included or deduction taken under the election.

Gains or losses (1) from the disposition of foreign currencies, (2) from the disposition of debt securities denominated in foreign currencies that are attributable to fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency between the date of acquisition of each security and the date of disposition, and (3) that are attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates that occur between the time a Fund accrues interest, dividends or other receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the time the Fund actually collects the receivables or pays the liabilities, generally will be treated as ordinary income or loss. These gains or losses may increase or decrease the amount of a Fund's investment company taxable income to be distributed to its shareholders.

The transfer agent may provide Fund shareholders with information concerning the average cost basis of their shares in order to help them prepare their tax returns. This information is intended as a convenience to shareholders and will not be reported to the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"). The IRS permits the use of several methods to determine the cost basis of mutual fund shares. The cost basis information provided by the transfer agent will be computed using the single-category average cost method, although neither the transfer agent nor the Funds recommend any particular method of determining cost basis. Other methods may result in different tax consequences. Even if you have reported gains or losses for a Fund in past years using another basis method, you may be able to use the average cost method for determining gains or losses in the current year. However, once you have elected to use the average cost method, you must continue to use it unless you apply to the IRS for permission to change methods. Likewise, changing to any basis method other than the average cost method requires IRS approval.

If you sell Fund shares at a loss after holding them for six months or less, your loss will be treated as long-term (instead of short-term) capital loss to the extent of any capital gain distributions that you may have received on those shares. If you pay a sales charge to acquire shares, that sales charge is generally treated as part of your cost basis for determining gain or loss upon disposition of those shares. However, if you exchange your shares within ninety days of acquisition and the sales charge was paid on the original shares, then the sales charge is not treated as part of your cost basis on the original shares, but instead, carries over to be included as part of your cost basis in the new or replacement shares.

Each Fund will be subject to a nondeductible 4% excise tax to the extent it fails to distribute by the end of any calendar year substantially all of its ordinary income for that year and its capital gain net income for the one-year period ending on October 31 of that year, plus certain other amounts.

You should consult your own tax adviser regarding specific questions as to federal, state, and local taxes. Dividends and capital gain distributions will generally be subject to applicable state and local taxes. Qualification as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for income tax purposes does not entail government supervision of management or investment policies. The foregoing general discussion of U.S. federal income tax consequences is based on the Code and the regulations issued thereunder as in effect on May 15, 2005.

On April 30, 2004, 51,524,128 Institutional Class shares valued at $1,223,182,804 were redeemed by an institutional investor which exceeded 25% of the voting securities of the AIM Technology Fund. The redemption was satisfied through a transfer of securities held by the AIM Technology Fund valued at $1,168,804,445 and cash of $54,378,359. Total net assets of the AIM Technology Fund prior to the redemption were $3,005,136,178. Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, any person who owns beneficially more than 25% of the voting securities of a mutual fund is presumed to control such mutual fund.

From a federal income tax perspective, the redemption triggers limitations under the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations regarding the amount of the capital loss carry forward available for future utilization by the AIM Technology Fund. After the redemption, the capital loss carry forward is expected to be subject to an annual accumulating limitation of approximately $77,000,000 per year (approximately $530,000,000 in total). The AIM Technology Fund may also be able to utilize an additional $285,000,000 of capital loss carry forward to the extent that unrealized gains existing on the redemption date are realized within a five-year period. The actual amount of capital loss carry forward reduction may fluctuate based on future transactions of the Fund. The capital loss carry forward at March 31, 2004 was approximately $4,550,000,000.

PERFORMANCE

To keep shareholders and potential investors informed, AIM will occasionally advertise the Funds' total return for one-, five-, and ten-year periods (or since inception). Most advertisements of the Funds will disclose the maximum front-end sales charge imposed on purchases of a Fund's Class A shares and/or the applicable CDSC imposed on redemptions of a Fund's Class B, Class C, and Class R shares. If any advertised performance data does not reflect the maximum front-end sales charge (if any), or the applicable CDSC, such advertisement will disclose that the sales charge or CDSC has not been deducted in computing the performance data, and that, if reflected, such charges would reduce the performance quoted.

Each Fund's total return is calculated in accordance with a standardized formula for computation of annualized total return. Standardized total return for Class A shares reflects the deduction of the maximum front-end sales charge at the time of purchase. Standardized total return for Class B and Class C shares reflects the deduction of the maximum applicable CDSC on a redemption of shares held for the period. A 1.00% - 5.00% CDSC may be charged on redemptions of Class B shares held six years or less, other than shares acquired through reinvestment of dividends and other distributions. A 1.00% CDSC may be charged on redemptions of Class C shares held twelve months or less, other than shares acquired through reinvestment of dividends and other distributions. Please see the section entitled "Distributor" for additional information on CDSCs. A 0.75% CDSC may be charged on redemptions of Class R shares, if you are a qualified plan, elect to receive a dealer concession, and redeem the plan within twelve months from initial deposit in the plan's AIM account. Total returns quoted in advertising reflect all aspects of a Fund's return, including the effect of reinvesting dividends and capital gain distributions, and any change in the Fund's net asset value per share over the period. Average annual returns are calculated by determining the growth or decline in value of a hypothetical investment in a Fund over a stated period, and then calculating the annually compounded percentage rate that would have produced the same result if the rate of growth or decline in value had been constant over the period. Because average annual returns tend to even out variations in a Fund's returns, investors should realize that the Fund's performance is not constant over time, but changes from year to year, and that average annual returns do not represent the actual year-to-year performance of the Fund.

In addition to average annual returns, each Fund may quote unaveraged or cumulative total returns reflecting the simple change in value of an investment over a stated period. Cumulative total return shows the actual rate of return on an investment for the period cited; average annual total return represents the average annual percentage change in the value of an investment. Both cumulative and average annual total returns tend to "smooth out" fluctuations in a Fund's investment results, because they do not show the interim variations in performance over the periods cited. Total returns may be quoted with or without taking a Fund's maximum applicable Class A front-end sales charge or Class B, Class C, or Class R

90

CDSC into account. Excluding sales charges from a total return calculation produces a higher total return figure.

We may also advertise the Utilities Fund's "30-day SEC yield." "30-day SEC yield" is based on historical earnings and is not intended to indicate future performance. The "30-day SEC yield" of a Fund refers to the income generated by an investment in the Fund over a 30-day period (which period will be stated in the advertisement). This income is then "annualized." That is, the amount of income generated by the investment during that period is assumed to be generated each 30-day period over a 52-week period and is shown as a percentage of the investment.

The "30-day SEC yield" for the Utilities Fund (with expense reimbursements) for the 30 days ended March 31, 2005 was:

Average annual total return performance for each of the periods indicated was computed by finding the average annual compounded rates of return that would equate the initial amount invested to the ending redeemable value, according to the following formula:

                                 P(1 + T)/n/ = ERV

where:        P = a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000
              T = average annual total return
              n = number of years
              ERV = ending redeemable value of initial payment

Average annual total return after taxes on distributions and after taxes on distributions and sale of Fund shares is computed by finding the average annual compounded rates of return that would equate the initial amount invested to the ending value, according to the following formula:

After taxes on distributions:

P(1 + T)/n/ =ATV//D//

95

where:        P = a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000
              T = average annual total return (after taxes on distributions)
              n = number of years
              ATV//D// = ending value of a hypothetical $1,000 payment made at
              the beginning of the 1-, 5-, or 10-year periods at the end of
              the 1-, 5-, or 10-year periods (or fractional portion) after
              taxes on fund distributions but not after taxes on
              redemptions.

After taxes on distributions and redemption:

                                P(1 + T)/n/ =ATV//DR//

where:        P = a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000
              T = average annual total return (after taxes on distributions and
                      redemption) n = number of years
              ATV//DR// = ending value of a hypothetical $1,000 payment made at
              the beginning of the 1-, 5-, or 10-year periods at the end of
              the 1-, 5-, or 10-year periods (or fractional portion) after
              taxes on fund distributions and redemptions.

The average annual total return performance figures shown above were determined by solving the above formula for "T" for each time period indicated.

The "30-day SEC yield" is computed by dividing the net investment income per share earned during the period by the maximum offering price per share on the last day of the period, according to the following formula:

                         Yield = 2[(a-b/cd + 1)/6/ - 1]

where:        a = dividends and interest earned during the period

              b = expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursements)

              c = the average daily number of shares outstanding during the
                  period that were entitled to receive dividends

              d = the maximum offering price per share on the last day of the
                  period

PENDING LITIGATION

Regulatory Action Alleging Market Timing

On April 12, 2005, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia ("WVAG") filed a civil lawsuit against AIM, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. ("IFG") (the former investment advisor to certain AIM Funds) and ADI, as well as numerous unrelated mutual fund complexes and financial institutions. None of the AIM Funds has been named as a defendant in this lawsuit. The WVAG complaint, filed in the Circuit Court of Marshall County, West Virginia [Civil Action No. 05-C-81], alleges, in substance, that AIM, IFG and ADI engaged in unfair competition and/or unfair or deceptive trade practices by failing to disclose in the

97

prospectuses for the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG, that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the WVAG alleges violations of W. Va. Code
Section 46A-1-101, et seq. (the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act). The WVAG complaint is seeking injunctive relief; civil monetary penalties; a writ of quo warranto against the defendants; pre-judgment and post-judgment interest; costs and expenses, including counsel fees; and other relief.

If AIM is unsuccessful in its defense of the WVAG lawsuit, it could be barred from serving as an investment adviser for any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a "registered investment company"). Such results could affect the ability of AIM or any other investment advisor directly or indirectly owned by AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP"), from serving as an investment advisor to any registered investment company, including your Fund. Your Fund has been informed by AIM that, if these results occur, AIM will seek exemptive relief from the SEC to permit it to continue to serve as your Fund's investment advisor. There is not assurance that such exemptive relief will be granted.

On May 31, 2005, the defendants removed this lawsuit to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia at Wheeling. On June 13, 2005, the MDL Court (as defined below) issued a Conditional Transfer Order transferring this lawsuit to the MDL Court. On June 29, 2005 the WVAG filed a Notice of Opposition to this Conditional Transfer Order. On July 7, 2005, the Supreme Court of West Virginia ruled in the context of a separate lawsuit that the WVAG does not have authority pursuant to W. Va. Code Section 46A-6-104 of the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act to bring an action based upon conduct that is ancillary to the purchase or sale of securities. AIM intends to seek dismissal of the WVAG's lawsuit against it, IFG and ADI in light of this ruling.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Market Timing

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG, AIM, AIM Management, AMVESCAP, the parent company of IFG and AIM, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain unrelated third parties) based on allegations of improper market timing and related activity in the AIM Funds. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal and state securities laws; (ii) violation of various provisions of ERISA; (iii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iv) breach of contract. These lawsuits were initiated in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory damages; restitution; injunctive relief; disgorgement of management fees; imposition of a constructive trust; removal of certain directors and/or employees; various corrective measures under ERISA; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements; interest; and attorneys' and experts' fees. A list identifying such lawsuits that have been served on IFG, AIM, the AIM Funds or related entities, or for which service of process has been waived, as of June 20, 2005 is set forth in Appendix H-1.

All lawsuits based on allegations of market timing, late trading, and related issues have been transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland (the "MDL Court") for consolidated or coordinated pre-trial proceedings. Pursuant to an Order of the MDL Court, plaintiffs consolidated their claims for pre-trial purposes into three amended complaints against various AIM- and IFG-related parties. A list identifying the amended complaints in the MDL Court is included in Appendix H-1. Plaintiffs in two of the underlying lawsuits transferred to the MDL Court continue to seek remand of their action to state court. These lawsuits are identified in Appendix H-1.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Use of Fair Value Pricing

Multiple civil class action lawsuits have been filed against various parties
(including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG and/or AIM)
alleging that certain AIM Funds inadequately employed fair value pricing. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to:
(i) violations of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) common law breach of duty; and (iii) common law negligence and gross negligence. These lawsuits have been filed in both Federal and state

98

courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; interest; and attorneys' fees and costs.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Excessive Advisory and/or Distribution Fees

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("IINA"), ADI and/or INVESCO Distributors, Inc. ("INVESCO Distributors")) alleging that the defendants charged excessive advisory and/or distribution fees and failed to pass on to shareholders the perceived savings generated by economies of scale. Certain of these lawsuits also allege that the defendants adopted unlawful distribution plans. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iii) breach of contract. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans; interest; prospective relief in the form of reduced fees; and attorneys' and experts' fees. A list identifying such lawsuits that have been served on IFG, AIM, the AIM Funds or related entities, or for which service of process has been waived, as of June 20, 2005 is set forth in Appendix H-3.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Charging of Distribution Fees on Limited Offering Funds or Share Classes

Multiple civil lawsuits, including shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by charging distribution fees while AIM Funds and/or specific share classes were closed generally to new investors and/or while other share classes of the same AIM Fund were not charged the same distribution fees. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; and (ii) breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; and attorneys' and experts' fees. A list identifying such lawsuits that have been served on IFG, AIM, the AIM Funds or related entities, or for which service of process has been waived, as of June 20, 2005 is set forth in Appendix H-4.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Mutual Fund Sales Practices and Directed-Brokerage Arrangements

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, AIM Management, IFG, AIM, AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AIS") and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants improperly used the assets of the AIM Funds to pay brokers to aggressively promote the sale of the AIM Funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans and recovery of all fees paid; an accounting of all fund-related fees, commissions and soft dollar payments; restitution of all unlawfully or discriminatorily obtained fees and charges; and attorneys' and experts' fees. A list identifying such lawsuits that have been served on IFG, AIM, the AIM Funds or related entities, or for which service of process has been waived, as of June 20, 2005 is set forth in Appendix H-5.

Private Civil Action Alleging Failure to Ensure Participation in Class Action Settlements

A civil lawsuit, purporting to be a class action lawsuit, has been filed against AIM, IINA, A I M Capital Management, Inc. ("AIM Capital") and the trustees of the AIM Funds alleging that the defendants

99

breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the AIM Funds participated in class action settlements in which they were eligible to participate. This lawsuit alleges as theories of recovery: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) common law breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) common law negligence. This lawsuit has been filed in Federal court and seeks such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; forfeiture of all commissions and fees paid by the class of plaintiffs; and costs and attorneys' fees. Such lawsuit, which was served on AIM and AIM Capital on June 20, 2005, is set forth in Appendix H-6.

APPENDIX A

RATINGS OF DEBT SECURITIES

The following is a description of the factors underlying the debt ratings of Moody's, S&P and Fitch:

MOODY'S LONG-TERM DEBT RATINGS

Moody's corporate ratings areas follows:

AAA: Bonds and preferred stock which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality. They carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as "gilt-edged." Interest payments are protected by a large or by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues.

AA: Bonds and preferred stock which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all standards. Together with the Aaa group they comprise what are generally known as high grade bonds. These are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present which make the long-term risk in Aa rated bonds appear somewhat larger than those securities rated Aaa.

A: Bonds and preferred stock which are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be considered as upper-medium-grade obligations. Factors giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate, but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the future.

BAA: Bonds and preferred stock which are rated Baa are considered as medium-grade obligations, i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as well.

BA: Bonds and preferred stock which are rated Ba are judged to have speculative elements; their future cannot be considered as well assured. Often the protection of interest and principal payments may be very moderate and thereby not well safeguarded during both good and bad times over the future. Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds in this class.

B: Bonds and preferred stock which are rated B generally lack characteristics of the desirable investment. Assurance of interest and principal payments or of maintenance of other terms of the contract over any long period of time may be small.

CAA: Bonds and preferred stock which are rated Caa are of poor standing. Such issues may be in default or there may be present elements of danger with respect to principal or interest.

CA: Bonds and preferred stock which are rated Ca represent obligations which are speculative in a high degree. Such issues are often in default or have other marked shortcomings.

A-1

C: Bonds and preferred stock which are rated C are the lowest rated class of bonds, and issues so rated can be regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any real investment standing.

Note: Moody's applies numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 in each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa. The modifier 1 indicates that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category.

MOODY'S SHORT-TERM PRIME RATING SYSTEM

Moody's short-term ratings are opinions of the ability of issuers to honor senior financial obligations and contracts. Such obligations generally have an original maturity not exceeding one year, unless explicitly noted.

Moody's employs the following designations, all judged to be investment grade, to indicate the relative repayment ability of rated issuers.

PRIME-1: Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-1 have a superior ability for repayment of senior short-term obligations. Prime-1 repayment ability will often be evidenced by many of the following characteristics:
leading market positions in well-established industries; high rates of return on funds employed; conservative capitalization structure with moderate reliance on debt and ample asset protection; broad margins in earnings coverage of fixed financial charges and high internal cash generation; and well-established access to a range of financial markets and assured sources of alternate liquidity.

PRIME-2: Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-2 have a strong ability to repay senior short-term debt obligations. This will normally be evidenced by many of the characteristics cited above but to a lesser degree. Earnings trends and coverage ratios, while sound, may be more subject to variation. Capitalization characteristics, while still appropriate, may be more affected by external conditions. Ample alternate liquidity is maintained.

PRIME-3: Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-3 have an acceptable ability for repayment of senior short-term debt obligations. The effect of industry characteristics and market compositions may be more pronounced. Variability in earnings and profitability may result in changes in the level of debt protection measurements and may require relatively high financial leverage. Adequate alternate liquidity is maintained.

NOT PRIME: Issuers rated Not Prime do not fall within any of the Prime rating categories.

Note: In addition, in certain countries the prime rating may be modified by the issuer's or guarantor's senior unsecured long-term debt rating.

Moody's municipal ratings are as follows:

Moody's U.S. Long-Term Municipal Bond Rating Definitions

Municipal Ratings are opinions of the investment quality of issuers and issues in the US municipal and tax-exempt markets. As such, these ratings incorporate Moody's assessment of the default probability and loss severity of these issuers and issues.

Municipal Ratings are based upon the analysis of four primary factors relating to municipal finance: economy, debt, finances, and administration/management strategies. Each of the factors is evaluated individually and for its effect on the other factors in the context of the municipality's ability to repay its debt.

A-2

AAA: Issuers or issues rated Aaa demonstrate the strongest creditworthiness relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

AA: Issuers or issues rated Aa demonstrate very strong creditworthiness relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

A: Issuers or issues rated A present above-average creditworthiness relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

BAA: Issuers or issues rated Baa represent average creditworthiness relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

BA: Issuers or issues rated Ba demonstrate below-average creditworthiness relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

B: Issuers or issues rated B demonstrate weak creditworthiness relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

CAA: Issuers or issues rated Caa demonstrate very weak creditworthiness relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

CA: Issuers or issues rated Ca demonstrate extremely weak creditworthiness relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

C: Issuers or issues rated C demonstrate the weakest creditworthiness relative to other US municipal or tax-exempt issuers or issues.

Note: Also, Moody's applies numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 in each generic rating classification from Aa to Caa. The modifier 1 indicates that the issue ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates that the issue ranks in the lower end of its generic category.

MOODY'S MIG/VMIG US SHORT-TERM RATINGS

In municipal debt issuance, there are three rating categories for short-term obligations that are considered investment grade. These ratings are designated as Moody's Investment Grade (MIG) and are divided into three levels - MIG 1 through MIG 3.

In addition, those short-term obligations that are of speculative quality are designated SG, or speculative grade.

In the case of variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs), a two-component rating is assigned. The first element represents Moody's evaluation of the degree of risk associated with scheduled principal and interest payments. The second element represents Moody's evaluation of the degree of risk associated with the demand feature, using the MIG rating scale.

The short-term rating assigned to the demand feature of VRDOs is designated as VMIG. When either the long- or short-term aspect of a VRDO is not rated, that piece is designated NR, e.g., Aaa/NR or NR/VMIG 1.

MIG ratings expire at note maturity. By contrast, VMIG rating expirations will be a function of each issue's specific structural or credit features.

Gradations of investment quality are indicated by rating symbols, with each symbol representing a group in which the quality characteristics are broadly the same.

A-3

MIG 1/VMIG 1: This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by established cash flows, highly reliable liquidity support or demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.

MIG 2/VMIG 2: This designation denotes strong credit quality. Margins of protection are ample although not as large as in the preceding group.

MIG 3/VMIG 3: This designation denotes acceptable credit quality. Liquidity and cash flow protection may be narrow and market access for refinancing is likely to be less well established.

SG: This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Debt instruments in this category may lack sufficient margins of protection.

STANDARD & POOR'S LONG-TERM CORPORATE AND MUNICIPAL RATINGS

Issue credit ratings are based in varying degrees, on the following considerations: likelihood of payment - capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on an obligation in accordance with the terms of the obligation; nature of and provisions of the obligation; and protection afforded by, and relative position of, the obligation in the event of bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors' rights.

The issue ratings definitions are expressed in terms of default risk. As such, they pertain to senior obligations of an entity. Junior obligations are typically rated lower than senior obligations, to reflect the lower priority in bankruptcy, as noted above.

S&P describes its ratings for corporate and municipal bonds as follows:

AAA: Debt rated AAA has the highest rating assigned by S&P. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is extremely strong.

AA: Debt rated AA has a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal and differs from the highest rated issues only in a small degree.

A: Debt rated A has a strong capacity to meet its financial commitments although it is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher rated categories. BBB:
Debt rated BBB exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

BB-B-CCC-CC-C: Debt rated BB, B, CCC, CC and C is regarded as having significant speculative characteristics with respect to capacity to pay interest and repay principal. BB indicates the least degree of speculation and C the highest. While such debt will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large uncertainties or major exposures to adverse conditions.

NR: Not Rated.

A-4

S&P DUAL RATINGS

S&P assigns "dual" ratings to all debt issues that have a put option or demand feature as part of their structure.

The first rating addresses the likelihood of repayment of principal and interest as due, and the second rating addresses only the demand feature. The long-term debt rating symbols are used for bonds to denote the long-term maturity and the commercial paper rating symbols for the put option (for example, AAA/A-1+). With short-term demand debt, the note rating symbols are used with the commercial paper rating symbols (for example, SP-1+/A-1+).

S&P COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS

An S&P commercial paper rating is a current assessment of the likelihood of timely payment of debt having an original maturity of no more than 365 days.

These categories are as follows:

A-1: This highest category indicates that the degree of safety regarding timely payment is strong. Those issues determined to possess extremely strong safety characteristics are denoted with a plus sign (+) designation.

A-2: Capacity for timely payment on issues with this designation is satisfactory. However, the relative degree of safety is not as high as for issues designated A-1.

A-3: Issues carrying this designation have adequate capacity for timely payment. They are, however, more vulnerable to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances than obligations carrying the higher designations.

B: Issues rated 'B' are regarded as having only speculative capacity for timely payment.

C: This rating is assigned to short-term debt obligations with a doubtful capacity for payment.

D: Debt rated 'D' is in payment default. The 'D' rating category is used when interest payments or principal payments are not made on the date due, even if the applicable grace period has not expired, unless Standard & Poor's believes such payments will be made during such grace period.

S&P SHORT-TERM MUNICIPAL RATINGS

An S&P note rating reflect the liquidity factors and market-access risks unique to notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note rating. Notes maturing beyond three years will most likely receive a long-term debt rating. The following criteria will be used in making that assessment:
amortization schedule (the larger the final maturity relative to other maturities, the more likely it will be treated as a note); and source of payment (the more dependant the issue is on the market for its refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note).

Note rating symbols are as follows:

SP-1: Strong capacity to pay principal and interest. An issue determined to possess a very strong capacity to pay debt service is given a plus (+) designation.

SP-2: Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest, with some vulnerability to adverse financial and economic changes over the term of the notes.

SP-3: Speculative capacity to pay principal and interest.

A-5

FITCH LONG-TERM CREDIT RATINGS

Fitch Ratings provides an opinion on the ability of an entity or of a securities issue to meet financial commitments, such as interest, preferred dividends, or repayment of principal, on a timely basis. These credit ratings apply to a variety of entities and issues, including but not limited to sovereigns, governments, structured financings, and corporations; debt, preferred/preference stock, bank loans, and counterparties; as well as the financial strength of insurance companies and financial guarantors.

Credit ratings are used by investors as indications of the likelihood of getting their money back in accordance with the terms on which they invested. Thus, the use of credit ratings defines their function: "investment grade" ratings (international Long-term 'AAA' - 'BBB' categories; Short-term 'F1' - 'F3') indicate a relatively low probability of default, while those in the "speculative" or "non-investment grade" categories (international Long-term 'BB'
- 'D'; Short-term 'B' - 'D') either signal a higher probability of default or that a default has already occurred. Ratings imply no specific prediction of default probability. However, for example, it is relevant to note that over the long term, defaults on 'AAA' rated U.S. corporate bonds have averaged less than 0.10% per annum, while the equivalent rate for 'BBB' rated bonds was 0.35%, and for 'B' rated bonds, 3.0%.

Fitch ratings do not reflect any credit enhancement that may be provided by insurance policies or financial guaranties unless otherwise indicated.

Entities or issues carrying the same rating are of similar but not necessarily identical credit quality since the rating categories do not fully reflect small differences in the degrees of credit risk.

Fitch credit and research are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold any security. Ratings do not comment on the adequacy of market price, the suitability of any security for a particular investor, or the tax-exempt nature of taxability of payments of any security.

The ratings are based on information obtained from issuers, other obligors, underwriters, their experts, and other sources Fitch Ratings believes to be reliable. Fitch Ratings does not audit or verify the truth or accuracy of such information. Ratings may be changed or withdrawn as a result of changes in, or the unavailability of, information or for other reasons.

Our program ratings relate only to standard issues made under the program concerned; it should not be assumed that these ratings apply to every issue made under the program. In particular, in the case of non-standard issues,
i.e., those that are linked to the credit of a third party or linked to the performance of an index, ratings of these issues may deviate from the applicable program rating.

Credit ratings do not directly address any risk other than credit risk. In particular, these ratings do not deal with the risk of loss due to changes in market interest rates and other market considerations.

AAA: Bonds considered to be investment grade and of the highest credit quality. The obligor has an exceptionally strong capacity for timely payment of financial commitments, which is unlikely to be affected by foreseeable events.

AA: Bonds considered to be investment grade and of very high credit quality. The obligor has a very strong capacity for timely payment of financial commitments which is not significantly vulnerable to foreseeable events.

A: Bonds considered to be investment grade and of high credit quality. The obligor's ability to pay interest and repay principal is considered to be strong, but may be more vulnerable to adverse changes in economic conditions and circumstances than bonds with higher ratings.

A-6

BBB: Bonds considered to be investment grade and of good credit quality. The obligor's ability to pay interest and repay principal is considered to be adequate. Adverse changes in economic conditions and circumstances are more likely to impair this capacity.

PLUS (+) MINUS (-): Plus and minus signs are used with a rating symbol to indicate the relative position of a credit within the rating category. Plus and minus signs, however, are not used in the "AAA" category.

NR: Indicates that Fitch does not rate the specific issue.

WITHDRAWN: A rating will be withdrawn when an issue matures or is called or refinanced and at Fitch's discretion, when Fitch Ratings deems the amount of information available to be inadequate for ratings purposes.

RATINGWATCH: Ratings are placed on RatingWatch to notify investors that there is a reasonable possibility of a rating change and the likely direction of such change. These are designated as "Positive," indicating a potential upgrade, "Negative," for potential downgrade, or "Evolving," if ratings may be raised, lowered or maintained. RatingWatch is typically resolved over a relatively short period.

FITCH SPECULATIVE GRADE BOND RATINGS

BB: Bonds are considered speculative. There is a possibility of credit risk developing, particularly as the result of adverse economic changes over time. However, business and financial alternatives may be available to allow financial commitments to be met.

B: Bonds are considered highly speculative. Significant credit risk is present but a limited margin of safety remains. While bonds in this class are currently meeting financial commitments, the capacity for continued payment is contingent upon a sustained, favorable business and economic environment.

CCC: Default is a real possibility. Capacity for meeting financial commitments is solely reliant upon sustained, favorable business or economic developments.

CC: Default of some kind appears probable.

C: Bonds are in imminent default in payment of interest or principal.

DDD, DD, and D: Bonds are in default on interest and/or principal payments. Such bonds are extremely speculative and are valued on the basis of their prospects for achieving partial or full recovery value in liquidation or reorganization of the obligor. "DDD" represents the highest potential for recovery on these bonds, and "D" represents the lowest potential for recovery.

PLUS (+) MINUS (-): Plus and minus signs are used with a rating symbol to indicate the relative position of a credit within the rating category. Plus and minus signs, however, are not used in categories below CCC.

FITCH SHORT-TERM CREDIT RATINGS

The following ratings scale applies to foreign currency and local currency ratings. A Short-term rating has a time horizon of less than 12 months for most obligations, or up to three years for U.S. public finance securities, and thus places greater emphasis on the liquidity necessary to meet financial commitments in a timely manner.

F-1+: Exceptionally Strong Credit Quality. Issues assigned this rating are regarded as having the strongest degree of assurance for timely payment.

A-7

F-1: Very Strong Credit Quality. Issues assigned this rating reflect an assurance of timely payment only slightly less in degree than issues rated "F-1+."

F-2: Good Credit Quality. Issues assigned this rating have a satisfactory degree of assurance for timely payment, but the margin of safety is not as great as in the case of the higher ratings.

F-3: Fair Credit Quality. Issues assigned this rating have characteristics suggesting that the degree of assurance for timely payment is adequate, however, near-term adverse changes could result in a reduction to non-investment grade.

B: Speculative. Minimal capacity for timely payment of financial commitments, plus vulnerability to near-term adverse changes in financial and economic conditions.

C: High default risk. Default is a real possibility. Capacity for meeting financial commitments is solely reliant upon a sustained, favorable business and economic environment.

D: Default. Issues assigned this rating are in actual or imminent payment default.

DESCRIPTION OF COMPENSATION STRUCTURE

AIM ADVISORS, INC.

AIM seeks to maintain a compensation program that is competitively positioned to attract and retain high-caliber investment professionals. Portfolio managers receive a base salary, an incentive bonus opportunity, an equity compensation opportunity, and a benefits package. Portfolio manager compensation is reviewed and may be modified each year as appropriate to reflect changes in the market, as well as to adjust the factors used to determine bonuses to promote good sustained fund performance. AIM evaluates competitive market compensation by reviewing compensation survey results conducted by an independent third party of investment industry compensation. Each portfolio manager's compensation consists of the following five elements:

. BASE SALARY. Each portfolio manager is paid a base salary. In setting the base salary, AIM's intention is to be competitive in light of the particular portfolio manager's experience and responsibilities.


/2/ This column reflects investments in a Fund's shares owned directly by a portfolio manager or beneficially owned by a portfolio manager (as determined in accordance with Rule 16a-1(a)(2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). A portfolio manager is presumed to be a beneficial owner of securities that are held by his or her immediate family members sharing the same household.

C-1

. ANNUAL BONUS. Each portfolio manager is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus which has quantitative and non-quantitative components. Generally, 70% of the bonus is quantitatively determined, based typically on a four-year rolling average of pre-tax performance of all registered investment company accounts for which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities versus the performance of a pre-determined peer group. In instances where a portfolio manager has responsibility for management of more than one fund, an asset weighted four-year rolling average is used.

High fund performance (against applicable peer group) would deliver compensation generally associated with top pay in the industry (determined by reference to the third-party provided compensation survey information) and poor fund performance (versus applicable peer group) could result in no bonus. The amount of fund assets under management typically have an impact on the bonus potential (for example, managing more assets increases the bonus potential); however, this factor typically carries less weight than relative performance. The remaining 30% portion of the bonus is discretionary as determined by AIM and takes into account other subjective factors.

. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION. Portfolio managers may be awarded options to purchase common shares and/or granted restricted shares of AMVESCAP stock from pools determined from time to time by the Remuneration Committee of the AMVESCAP Board of Directors. Awards of equity-based compensation typically vest over time, so as to create incentives to retain key talent.

. PARTICIPATION IN GROUP INSURANCE PROGRAMS. Portfolio managers are provided life insurance coverage in the form of a group variable universal life insurance policy, under which they may make additional contributions to purchase additional insurance coverage or for investment purposes.

. PARTICIPATION IN DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN. Portfolio managers are eligible to participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, which affords participating employees the tax benefits of deferring the receipt of a portion of their cash compensation.

Portfolio managers also participate in benefit plans and programs available generally to all employees.

OTHER MANAGED ACCOUNTS

As of March 31, 2005

AIM's portfolio managers develop investment models which are used in connection with the management of certain AIM funds as well as other mutual funds for which AIM or an affiliate acts as sub-advisor, other pooled investment vehicles that are not registered mutual funds, and other accounts managed for organizations and individuals. The following chart reflects information regarding accounts other than the Fund for which each portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities. Accounts are grouped into three categories: (i) mutual funds,
(ii) other pooled investment vehicles, and (iii) other accounts. To the extent that any of these accounts pay advisory fees that are based on account performance ("performance-based fees"), information on those accounts is specifically broken out.

POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one Fund or other account. More specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple Funds and /or other accounts may be presented with one or more of the following potential conflicts:

. The management of multiple Funds and/or other accounts may result in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each Fund and/or other account. AIM seeks to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of portfolio managers by having portfolio managers focus on a particular investment discipline. Most other accounts managed by a portfolio manager are managed using the same investment models that are used in connection with the management of the Funds.


/2/ These are accounts of individual investors for which AIM's affiliate, AIM Private Asset Management, Inc. ("APAM") provides investment advice. APAM offers separately managed accounts that are managed according to the investment models developed by AIM"s portfolio managers and used in connection with the management of certain AIM funds. APAM accounts may be invested in accordance with one or more of those investment models and investments held in those accounts are traded in accordance with the applicable models.

C-4

. If a portfolio manager identifies a limited investment opportunity which may be suitable for more than one Fund or other account, a Fund may not be able to take full advantage of that opportunity due to an allocation of filled purchase or sale orders across all eligible Funds and other accounts. To deal with these situations, AIM and the Funds have adopted procedures for allocating portfolio transactions across multiple accounts.

. With respect to securities transactions for the Funds, AIM determines which broker to use to execute each order, consistent with its duty to seek best execution of the transaction. However, with respect to certain other accounts (such as mutual funds for which AIM or an affiliate acts as sub-advisor, other pooled investment vehicles that are not registered mutual funds, and other accounts managed for organizations and individuals), AIM may be limited by the client with respect to the selection of brokers or may be instructed to direct trades through a particular broker. In these cases, trades for a Fund in a particular security may be placed separately from, rather than aggregated with, such other accounts. Having separate transactions with respect to a security may temporarily affect the market price of the security or the execution of the transaction, or both, to the possible detriment of the Fund or other account(s) involved.

. Finally, the appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where AIM has an incentive, such as a performance-based management fee, which relates to the management of one Fund or account but not all Funds and accounts with respect to which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities.

AIM and the Funds have adopted certain compliance procedures which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

APPENDIX F

PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
(AS AMENDED SEPTEMBER 16, 2004)

A. PROXY POLICIES
Each of A I M Advisors, Inc., A I M Capital Management, Inc., AIM Private Asset Management, Inc. and AIM Alternative Asset Management Company (each an "AIM Advisor" and collectively "AIM") has the fiduciary obligation to, at all times, make the economic best interest of advisory clients the sole consideration when voting proxies of companies held in client accounts. As a general rule, each AIM Advisor shall vote against any actions that would reduce the rights or options of shareholders, reduce shareholder influence over the board of directors and management, reduce the alignment of interests between management and shareholders, or reduce the value of shareholders' investments. At the same time, AIM believes in supporting the management of companies in which it invests, and will accord proper weight to the positions of a company's board of directors, and the AIM portfolio managers who chose to invest in the companies. Therefore, on most issues, our votes have been cast in accordance with the recommendations of the company's board of directors, and we do not currently expect that trend to change. Although AIM's proxy voting policies are stated below, AIM's proxy committee considers all relevant facts and circumstances, and retains the right to vote proxies as deemed appropriate.

I. BOARDS OF DIRECTORS

A board that has at least a majority of independent directors is integral to good corporate governance. Key board committees, including audit, compensation and nominating committees, should be completely independent.

There are some actions by directors that should result in votes being withheld. These instances include directors who:

. Are not independent directors and (a) sit on the board's audit, compensation or nominating committee, or (b) sit on a board where the majority of the board is not independent;

. Attend less than 75 percent of the board and committee meetings without a valid excuse;

. Implement or renew a dead-hand or modified dead-hand poison pill;

. Sit on the boards of an excessive number of companies;

. Enacted egregious corporate governance or other policies or failed to replace management as appropriate;

. Have failed to act on takeover offers where the majority of the shareholders have tendered their shares; or

. Ignore a shareholder proposal that is approved by a majority of the shares outstanding.

Votes in a contested election of directors must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, considering the following factors:

. Long-term financial performance of the target company relative to its industry;

. Management's track record;

F-1

. Portfolio manager's assessment;

. Qualifications of director nominees (both slates);

. Evaluation of what each side is offering shareholders as well as the likelihood that the proposed objectives and goals can be met; and

. Background to the proxy contest.

II. INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

A company should limit its relationship with its auditors to the audit engagement, and certain closely related activities that do not, in the aggregate, raise an appearance of impaired independence. We will support the reappointment of the company's auditors unless:

. It is not clear that the auditors will be able to fulfill their function;

. There is reason to believe the independent auditors have rendered an opinion that is neither accurate nor indicative of the company's financial position; or

. The auditors have a significant professional or personal relationship with the issuer that compromises the auditors' independence.

III. COMPENSATION PROGRAMS

Appropriately designed equity-based compensation plans, approved by shareholders, can be an effective way to align the interests of long-term shareholders and the interests of management, employees and directors. Plans should not substantially dilute shareholders' ownership interests in the company, provide participants with excessive awards or have objectionable structural features. We will consider all incentives, awards and compensation, and compare them to a company-specific adjusted allowable dilution cap and a weighted average estimate of shareholder wealth transfer and voting power dilution.

. We will generally vote against equity-based plans where the total dilution (including all equity-based plans) is excessive.

. We will support the use of employee stock purchase plans to increase company stock ownership by employees, provided that shares purchased under the plan are acquired for no less than 85% of their market value.

. We will vote against plans that have any of the following structural features: ability to re-price underwater options without shareholder approval, ability to issue options with an exercise price below the stock's current market price, ability to issue reload options, or automatic share replenishment ("evergreen") feature.

. We will vote for proposals to reprice options if there is a value-for-value (rather than a share-for-share) exchange. o We will generally support the board's discretion to determine and grant appropriate cash compensation and severance packages.

F-2

IV. CORPORATE MATTERS

We will review management proposals relating to changes to capital structure, reincorporation, restructuring and mergers and acquisitions on a case by case basis, considering the impact of the changes on corporate governance and shareholder rights, anticipated financial and operating benefits, portfolio manager views, level of dilution, and a company's industry and performance in terms of shareholder returns.

. We will vote for merger and acquisition proposals that the proxy committee and relevant portfolio managers believe, based on their review of the materials, will result in financial and operating benefits, have a fair offer price, have favorable prospects for the combined companies, and will not have a negative impact on corporate governance or shareholder rights.

. We will vote against proposals to increase the number of authorized shares of any class of stock that has superior voting rights to another class of stock.

. We will vote for proposals to increase common share authorization for a stock split, provided that the increase in authorized shares would not result in excessive dilution given a company's industry and performance in terms of shareholder returns.

. We will vote for proposals to institute open-market share repurchase plans in which all shareholders participate on an equal basis.

V. SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

Shareholder proposals can be extremely complex, and the impact on share value can rarely be anticipated with any high degree of confidence. The proxy committee reviews shareholder proposals on a case-by-case basis, giving careful consideration to such factors as: the proposal's impact on the company's short-term and long-term share value, its effect on the company's reputation, the economic effect of the proposal, industry and regional norms applicable to the company, the company's overall corporate governance provisions, and the reasonableness of the request.

. We will generally abstain from shareholder social and environmental proposals.

. We will generally support the board's discretion regarding shareholder proposals that involve ordinary business practices.

. We will generally vote for shareholder proposals that are designed to protect shareholder rights if the company's corporate governance standards indicate that such additional protections are warranted.

. We will generally vote for proposals to lower barriers to shareholder action.

. We will generally vote for proposals to subject shareholder rights plans to a shareholder vote. In evaluating these plans, we give favorable consideration to the presence of "TIDE" provisions (short-term sunset provisions, qualified bid/permitted offer provisions, and/or mandatory review by a committee of independent directors at least every three years).

VI. OTHER

. We will vote against any proposal where the proxy materials lack sufficient information upon which to base an informed decision.

F-3

. We will vote against any proposals to authorize the proxy to conduct any other business that is not described in the proxy statement.

. We will vote any matters not specifically covered by these proxy policies and procedures in the economic best interest of advisory clients.

AIM's proxy policies, and the procedures noted below, may be amended from time to time.

B. PROXY COMMITTEE PROCEDURES The proxy committee currently consists of representatives from the Legal and Compliance Department, the Investments Department and the Finance Department.

The committee members review detailed reports analyzing the proxy issues and have access to proxy statements and annual reports. Committee members may also speak to management of a company regarding proxy issues and should share relevant considerations with the proxy committee. The committee then discusses the issues and determines the vote. The committee shall give appropriate and significant weight to portfolio managers' views regarding a proposal's impact on shareholders. A proxy committee meeting requires a quorum of three committee members, voting in person or by e-mail.

AIM's proxy committee shall consider its fiduciary responsibility to all clients when addressing proxy issues and vote accordingly. The proxy committee may enlist the services of reputable outside professionals and/or proxy evaluation services, such as Institutional Shareholder Services or any of its subsidiaries ("ISS"), to assist with the analysis of voting issues and/or to carry out the actual voting process. To the extent the services of ISS or another provider are used, the proxy committee shall periodically review the policies of that provider. The proxy committee shall prepare a report for the Funds' Board of Trustees on a periodic basis regarding issues where AIM's votes do not follow the recommendation of ISS or another provider because AIM's proxy policies differ from those of such provider.

In addition to the foregoing, the following shall be strictly adhered to unless contrary action receives the prior approval of the Funds' Board of Trustees:

1. Other than by voting proxies and participating in Creditors' committees, AIM shall not engage in conduct that involves an attempt to change or influence the control of a company.
2. AIM will not publicly announce its voting intentions and the reasons therefore.
3. AIM shall not participate in a proxy solicitation or otherwise seek proxy-voting authority from any other public company shareholder.
4. All communications regarding proxy issues between the proxy committee and companies or their agents, or with fellow shareholders shall be for the sole purpose of expressing and discussing AIM's concerns for its advisory clients' interests and not for an attempt to influence or control management.

C. BUSINESS/DISASTER RECOVERY If the proxy committee is unable to meet due to a temporary business interruption, such as a power outage, a sub-committee of the proxy committee may vote proxies in accordance with the policies stated herein. If the sub-committee of the proxy committee is not able to vote proxies, the sub-committee shall authorize ISS to vote proxies by default in accordance with ISS' proxy policies and procedures, which may vary slightly from AIM's.

F-4

D. RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING VOTING If a country's laws allow a company in that country to block the sale of the company's shares by a shareholder in advance of a shareholder meeting, AIM will not vote in shareholder meetings held in that country, unless the company represents that it will not block the sale of its shares in connection with the meeting. Administrative or other procedures, such as securities lending, may also cause AIM to refrain from voting. Although AIM considers proxy voting to be an important shareholder right, the proxy committee will not impede a portfolio manager's ability to trade in a stock in order to vote at a shareholder meeting.

E. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST The proxy committee reviews each proxy to assess the extent to which there may be a material conflict between AIM's interests and those of advisory clients. A potential conflict of interest situation may include where AIM or an affiliate manages assets for, administers an employee benefit plan for, provides other financial products or services to, or otherwise has a material business relationship with, a company whose management is soliciting proxies, and failure to vote proxies in favor of management of the company may harm AIM's relationship with the company. In order to avoid even the appearance of impropriety, the proxy committee will not take AIM's relationship with the company into account, and will vote the company's proxies in the best interest of the advisory clients, in accordance with these proxy policies and procedures.

In the event that AIM's proxy policies and voting record do not guide the proxy committee's vote in a situation where a conflict of interest exists, the proxy committee will vote the proxy in the best interest of the advisory clients, and will provide information regarding the issue to the Funds' Board of Trustees in the next quarterly report.

To the extent that a committee member has any conflict of interest with respect to a company or an issue presented, that committee member should inform the proxy committee of such conflict and abstain from voting on that company or issue.

F. FUND OF FUNDS When an AIM Fund that invests in another AIM Fund(s) has the right to vote on the proxy of the underlying AIM Fund, AIM will seek guidance from the Board of Trustees of the investing AIM Fund on how to vote such proxy.

APPENDIX G

CONTROL PERSONS AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF SECURITIES

To the best knowledge of the Trust, the names and addresses of the record and beneficial holders of 5% or more of the outstanding shares of each class of the Trust's equity securities and the percentage of the outstanding shares held by such holders are set forth below. Unless otherwise indicated below, the Trust has no knowledge as to whether all or any portion of the shares owned of record are also owned beneficially.

A shareholder who owns beneficially 25% or more of the outstanding securities of a Fund is presumed to "control" that Fund as defined in the 1940 Act. Such control may affect the voting rights of other shareholders.

All information listed below is as of August 15, 2005.

This claim alleges: common law breach of duty and common law negligence and gross negligence. The plaintiffs in these cases are seeking: compensatory and punitive damages; interest; and attorneys' fees and costs. The Third Judicial Circuit Court for Madison County, Illinois has issued an order severing the claims of plaintiff Parthasarathy from the claims of the other plaintiffs against AIM and other defendants. As a result, AIM is a defendant in the following severed action: EDMUND WOODBURY, STUART ALLEN SMITH and SHARON SMITH, Individually and On Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, v. AIM INTERNATIONAL FUNDS, INC., ET AL., in the Third Judicial Circuit Court for Madison County, Illinois (Case No. 03-L-1253A).

On April 22, 2005, Defendants in the Woodbury lawsuit removed the action to Federal Court (U.S. District Court, Southern District of Illinois, No. 05-CV-302-DRH). Based on a recent Federal appellate court decision (the "Kircher" case), AIM and the other defendants in the Woodbury lawsuit removed the action to Federal court (U.S. District Court, Southern District of Illinois, Cause No. 05-CV-302-DRH) on April 22, 2005. On April 26, 2005, AIM and the other defendants filed their Motion to Dismiss the plaintiffs' state law based claims. On June 10, 2005, the Court dismissed the Woodbury lawsuit based upon the Kircher ruling and ordered the court clerk to close this case. Plaintiffs filed a Motion to Amend the Judgment arguing that the Kircher ruling does not apply to require the dismissal of the claims against AIM in the Woodbury lawsuit. On July 7, 2005, the Court denied this Motion.

APPENDIX H-5
PENDING LITIGATION ALLEGING IMPROPER MUTUAL FUND SALES PRACTICES
AND DIRECTED-BROKERAGE ARRANGEMENTS

The following civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, involve, depending on the lawsuit, one or more of AIM Management, IFG, AIM, AIS and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds and allege that the defendants improperly used the assets of the AIM Funds to pay brokers to aggressively push the AIM Funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions. These lawsuits either have been served or have had service of process waived as of June 20, 2005.

By order of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, the claims made in the Beasley, Kehlbeck Trust, Fry, Apu and Bendix lawsuits discussed below were consolidated into the Boyce lawsuit discussed below and these other lawsuits were administratively closed. On June 7, 2005, plaintiffs filed their Consolidated Amended Complaint in which they make substantially identical allegations to those of the individual underlying lawsuits. However, the City of Chicago Deferred Compensation Plan has been joined as an additional plaintiff in the Consolidated Amended Complaint. Plaintiffs added defendants, including current and former directors/trustees of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FS


REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Trustees
and Shareholders of AIM Energy Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the AIM Energy Fund, formerly known as INVESCO Energy Fund (one of the funds constituting AIM Sector Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at March 31, 2005, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at March 31, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2005

NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

AIM Energy Fund, formerly INVESCO Energy Fund, (the "Fund") is a series portfolio of AIM Sector Funds (the "Trust"). The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end series management investment company consisting of seven separate portfolios, each authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest. The Fund currently offers multiple classes of shares. Matters affecting each portfolio or class will be voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio or class. The assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the Fund.
The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital growth. Each company listed in the Schedule of Investments is organized in the United States of America unless otherwise noted.
Under the Trust's organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust's investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities, including restricted securities, are valued according to the following policy. A security listed or traded on an exchange (except convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular day, the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but not securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market System) is valued on the basis of prices furnished by independent pricing services, which may be considered fair valued, or market makers. Each security reported on the NASDAQ National Market System is valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") as of the close of the customary trading session on the valuation date or absent a NOCP, at the closing bid price.
Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by an exchange on which they are principally traded. Listed options are valued at the mean between the last bid and the ask prices from the exchange on which they are principally traded. Options not listed on an exchange are valued by an independent source at the mean between the last bid and ask prices. For purposes of determining net asset value per share, futures and option contracts generally will be valued 15 minutes after the close of the customary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE").
Investments in open-end registered investment companies and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share. Investments in closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to specific securities, dividend rate, yield, quality, type of issue, coupon rate, maturity, individual trading characteristics and other market data. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity and commercial paper are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods are valued based upon quotes furnished by independent sources and are valued at the last bid price in the case of equity securities and in the case of debt obligations, the mean between the last bid and asked prices.
Foreign securities (including foreign exchange contracts) are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of the close of the NYSE. Generally, trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of the close of the respective markets. Events affecting the values of such foreign securities may occur between the times at which the particular foreign market closes and the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE which would not ordinarily be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value. If the event is likely to have affected the closing price of the security, the security will be valued at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Adjustments to closing prices to reflect fair value may also be based on a screening process of an independent pricing service to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. Foreign securities meeting the approved degree of certainty that the price is not reflective of current market value will be priced at the indication of fair value from the independent pricing service. Multiple factors may be considered by the independent pricing service in determining adjustments to reflect fair value and may include information relating to sector indices, ADRs and domestic and foreign index futures.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Trust's officers following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Issuer specific events, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and information providers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security's fair value. B. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

FS-7


Brokerage commissions and mark ups are considered transaction costs and are recorded as an increase to the cost basis of securities purchased and/or a reduction of proceeds on a sale of securities. Such transaction costs are included in the determination of realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investment securities reported in the Statement of Operations and the Statement of Changes in Net Assets and the realized and unrealized net gains (losses) on securities per share in the Financial Highlights. Transaction costs are included in the calculation of the Fund's net asset value and, accordingly, they reduce the Fund's total returns. These transaction costs are not considered operating expenses and are not reflected in net investment income reported in the Statement of Operations and Statement of Changes in Net Assets, or the net investment income per share and ratios of expenses and net investment income reported in the Financial Highlights, nor are they limited by any expense limitation arrangements between the Fund and the advisor.
The Fund allocates income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses to a class based on the relative net assets of each class. C. DISTRIBUTIONS -- Distributions from income and net realized capital gain, if any, are generally paid annually and recorded on ex-dividend date. The Fund may elect to use a portion of the proceeds from redemptions as distributions for federal income tax purposes.
D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gain) which is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is recorded in the financial statements. E. EXPENSES -- Fees provided for under the Rule 12b-1 plan of a particular class of the Fund and which are directly attributable to that class are charged to the operations of such class. All other expenses are allocated among the classes based on relative net assets.
F. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS -- Foreign currency is valued at the close of the NYSE based on quotations posted by banks and major currency dealers. Portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities (net of foreign taxes withheld on disposition) and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not separately account for the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments and the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. The combined results of changes in foreign exchange rates and the fluctuation of market prices on investments (net of estimated foreign tax withholding) are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments in the Statement of Operations. Reported net realized foreign currency gains or losses arise from, (i) sales of foreign currencies, (ii) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and (iii) the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign currency gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
G. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- A foreign currency contract is an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund may enter into a foreign currency contract to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a foreign currency contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency in order to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably.

NOTE 2--ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER FEES PAID TO AFFILIATES

The Trust has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee based on the annual rate of the Fund's average daily net assets as follows:

AVERAGE NET ASSETS  RATE
-------------------------
First $350 million 0.75 %
-------------------------
Next $350 million  0.65 %
-------------------------
Next $1.3 billion  0.55 %
-------------------------
Next $2 billion    0.45 %
-------------------------
Next $2 billion    0.40 %
-------------------------
Next $2 billion    0.375%
-------------------------
Over $8 billion    0.35 %
-------------------------

Prior to September 30, 2004, AIM had entered into a sub-advisory agreement with INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("INVESCO") whereby AIM paid INVESCO 40% of the fee paid by the Fund to AIM. Effective September 30, 2004, the sub-advisory agreement between AIM and INVESCO was terminated.
AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares to 1.65%, 2.30%, 2.30%, 1.75% and 1.55% of average daily net assets, respectively. AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares to 2.00%, 2.65%, 2.65%, 2.10% and 1.90% of average daily net assets, respectively, through March 31, 2006. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the total annual fund operating expenses to exceed the limits stated above: (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expense on short sales; (iv) extraordinary items (these are expenses that are not anticipated to arise from the Fund's day-to-day operations), or items designated as such by the Fund's Board of Trustees; (v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees; and (vi) expenses that the Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Currently, in addition to the expense reimbursement arrangement with AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP")

FS-8


described more fully below, the only expense offset arrangements from which the Fund may benefit are in the form of credits that the Fund receives from banks where the Fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. Those credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by the Fund. AIM did not waive fees and/or reimburse expenses during the period under this expense limitation.
Further, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund in the amount of 25% of the advisory fee AIM receives from the affiliated money market funds on investments by the Fund in such affiliated money market funds (excluding investments made in affiliated money market funds with cash collateral from securities loaned by the fund). AIM is also voluntarily waiving a portion of the advisory fee payable by the Fund equal to the difference between the income earned from investing in the affiliated money market fund and the hypothetical income earned from investing in an appropriate comparative benchmark. Voluntary fee waivers or reimbursements may be modified or discontinued at any time upon consultation with the Board of Trustees without further notice to investors.
For the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM waived fees of $7,020. For the year ended March 31, 2005, at the request of the Trustees of the Trust, AMVESCAP agreed to reimburse $47,747 of expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with market timing matters in the AIM Funds, including legal, audit, shareholder reporting, communications and trustee expenses. These expenses along with the related expense reimbursement are included in the Statement of Operations.
The Fund, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with AIM, has agreed to pay AIM for certain administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund. Pursuant to such agreement, for the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM was paid $147,061.
The Fund, pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement, has agreed to pay AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AISI") a fee for providing transfer agency and shareholder services to the Fund and reimburse AISI for certain expenses incurred by AISI in the course of providing such services. AISI may make payments to intermediaries that provide omnibus account services, sub-accounting services and/or networking services. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid AISI $1,118,558.
The Trust has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") to serve as the distributor for the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares of the Fund. The Trust has adopted plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with respect to the Fund's Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares (collectively the "Plans"). The Fund, pursuant to the Plans, pays ADI compensation at the annual rate of 0.35% of the Fund's average daily net assets of Class A shares, 1.00% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares, 0.45% of the average daily net assets of Class K shares and 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Investor Class shares. Of these amounts, up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K or Investor Class shares may be paid to furnish continuing personal shareholder services to customers who purchase and own shares of such classes. Any amounts not paid as a service fee under the Plans would constitute an asset-based sales charge. NASD Rules also impose a cap on the total sales charges, including asset-based sales charges that may be paid by any class of shares of the Fund. Pursuant to the Plans, for the year ended March 31, 2005, the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares paid ADI $262,371, $317,963, $286,422, $5,527 and $709,185, respectively.
Front-end sales commissions and contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSC") (collectively the "sales charges") are not recorded as expenses of the Fund. Front-end sales commissions are deducted from proceeds from the sales of Fund shares prior to investment in Class A shares of the Fund. CDSC are deducted from redemption proceeds prior to remittance to the shareholder. During the year ended March 31, 2005, ADI advised the Fund that it retained $206,184 in front-end sales commissions from the sale of Class A shares and $3,853, $51,271, $9,483 and $0 from Class A, Class B, Class C and Class K shares, respectively, for CDSC imposed upon redemptions by shareholders.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are officers and directors of AIM, AISI, and/or ADI.

NOTE 3--INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES

The Fund is permitted, pursuant to an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), to invest daily available cash balances and cash collateral from securities lending transactions in affiliated money market funds.

FS-9


NOTE 4--EXPENSE OFFSET ARRANGEMENTS

The expense offset arrangements are comprised of (i) transfer agency credits which result from balances in Demand Deposit Accounts (DDA) used by the transfer agent for clearing shareholder transactions and (ii) custodian credits which result from periodic overnight cash balances at the custodian. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received credits from these arrangements which resulted in the reduction of the Fund's total expenses of $6,473.

NOTE 5--TRUSTEES' FEES

Trustees' fees represent remuneration paid to each Trustee of the Trust who is not an "interested person" of AIM. Trustees have the option to defer compensation payable by the Trust. Those Trustees who defer compensation have the option to select various AIM Funds in which their deferral accounts shall be deemed to be invested.
Current Trustees are eligible to participate in a retirement plan that provides for benefits to be paid upon retirement to Trustees over a period of time based on the number of years of service. The Fund may have certain former Trustees that also participate in a retirement plan and receive benefits under such plan.
Obligations under the deferred compensation and retirement plans represent unsecured claims against the general assets of the Fund.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid legal fees of $4,669 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel LLP as counsel to the Independent Trustees. A member of that firm is a Trustee of the Trust.

NOTE 6--BORROWINGS

Pursuant to an exemptive order from the SEC, the Fund may participate in an interfund lending facility that AIM has established for temporary borrowings by the AIM Funds. An interfund loan will be made under this facility only if the loan rate (an average of the rate available on bank loans and the rate available on investments in overnight repurchase agreements) is favorable to both the lending fund and the borrowing fund. A loan will be secured by collateral if the Fund's aggregate borrowings from all sources exceeds 10% of the Fund's total assets. To the extent that the loan is required to be secured by collateral, the collateral is marked to market daily to ensure that the market value is at least 102% of the outstanding principal value of the loan.
The Fund is a participant in an uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility with State Street Bank and Trust Company ("SSB"). The Fund may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $125,000,000, or (ii) the limits set by its prospectus for borrowings. The Fund and other funds advised by AIM which are parties to the credit facility can borrow on a first come, first served basis. Principal on each loan outstanding shall bear interest at the bid rate quoted by SSB at the time of the request for the loan.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund did not borrow or lend under the interfund lending facility or borrow under the uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility.
Additionally, the Fund is permitted to temporarily carry a negative or overdrawn balance in its account with SSB, the custodian bank. To compensate the custodian bank for such overdrafts, the overdrawn Fund may either (i) leave funds in the account so the custodian can be compensated by earning the additional interest; or (ii) compensate by paying the custodian bank. In either case, the custodian bank will be compensated at an amount equal to the Federal Funds rate plus 100 basis points.

NOTE 7--PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund may lend portfolio securities having a market value up to one-third of the Fund's total assets. Such loans are secured by collateral equal to no less than the market value of the loaned securities determined daily. Such collateral will be cash or debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies. Cash collateral received in connection with these loans is invested in short-term money market instruments or affiliated money market funds. It is the Fund's policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. The Fund could also experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the collateral available for return to the borrower due to a loss on the collateral invested.
For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received dividends on cash collateral of $84,389 for securities lending transactions, which are net of rebates. There were no securities out on loan as of March 31, 2005.

NOTE 8--DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND TAX COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:

There were no ordinary income or long-term capital gain distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

TAX COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS:

As of March 31, 2005, the components of net assets on a tax basis were as follows:

                                           2005
----------------------------------------------------
Undistributed long-term gain           $  7,914,067
----------------------------------------------------
Unrealized appreciation -- investments  193,733,920
----------------------------------------------------
Temporary book/tax differences              (37,209)
----------------------------------------------------
Capital loss carryforward                (5,969,955)
----------------------------------------------------
Shares of Beneficial Interest           461,947,227
----------------------------------------------------
Total net assets                       $657,588,050
----------------------------------------------------

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is due to differences in the timing of recognition of gains and losses on investments for tax and book purposes. The Fund's unrealized appreciation (depreciation) difference is attributable primarily to losses on wash sales and the treatment of certain corporate actions.
The temporary book/tax differences are a result of timing differences between book and tax recognition of income and/or expenses. The Fund's temporary book/tax differences are the result of the trustee deferral of compensation and retirement plan expenses.
Capital loss carryforward is calculated and reported as of a specific date. Results of transactions and other activity after that date may affect the amount of capital loss carryforward actually available for the Fund to utilize.

NOTE 13--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Terms used in the Legal Proceedings Note are defined terms solely for the purpose of this note.

SETTLED ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS RELATED TO MARKET TIMING

On October 8, 2004, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. ("IFG") (the former investment advisor to certain AIM Funds) and A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM") (the Fund's investment advisor) reached final settlements with certain regulators, including without limitation the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the New York Attorney General ("NYAG") and the Colorado Attorney General ("COAG"), to resolve civil enforcement actions and investigations related to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG. These regulators alleged, in substance, that IFG and AIM failed to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds that they advised and to the independent directors/trustees of such Funds that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds, thereby breaching their fiduciary duties to such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the regulators alleged that IFG and AIM breached various Federal and state securities, business and consumer protection laws. On the same date, A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") (the distributor of the retail AIM Funds) reached a final settlement with the SEC to resolve an investigation relating to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds. The SEC also alleged that ADI violated various Federal securities laws. The SEC also has settled related market timing enforcement actions brought against certain former officers and employees of IFG.
Under the terms of the settlements, IFG agreed to pay a total of $325 million, of which $110 million is civil penalties. Of this $325 million total payment, half has been paid and the remaining half will be paid on or before December 31, 2005. AIM and ADI agreed to pay a total of $50 million, of which $30 million is civil penalties, all of which has been paid. The entire $325 million IFG settlement fund will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds that IFG formerly advised that were harmed by market timing activity, and the entire $50 million settlement fund by AIM and ADI will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds advised by AIM that were harmed by market timing activity, all as to be determined by an independent distribution consultant. The IFG and AIM settlement funds may increase as a result of contributions from third parties who reach final settlements with the SEC or other regulators to resolve allegations of market timing and/or late trading. The settlement funds will be distributed in accordance with a methodology to be determined by the independent distribution consultant, in consultation with AIM and the independent trustees of the AIM Funds and acceptable to the staff of the SEC. Under the settlements with the NYAG and COAG, AIM has agreed to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004, not to increase certain management fees and to provide more information to investors regarding fees.
Under the terms of the settlements, AIM is undertaking certain governance and compliance reforms, including maintaining an internal controls committee and retaining an independent compliance consultant and a corporate ombudsman. Also, commencing in 2007 and at least once every other year thereafter, AIM will undergo a compliance review by an independent third party. In addition, under the terms of the settlements, AIM has undertaken to cause the AIM Funds to operate in accordance with certain governance policies and practices, including retaining a full-time independent senior officer whose duties include monitoring compliance and managing the process by which proposed management fees to be charged the AIM Funds are negotiated. Also, commencing in 2008 and not less than every fifth calendar year thereafter, the AIM Funds will hold shareholder meetings at which their Boards of Trustees will be elected.
At the request of the trustees of the AIM Funds, AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP"), the parent company of IFG and AIM, has agreed to reimburse expenses incurred by such Funds related to market timing matters.
The SEC has also settled market timing enforcement actions against Raymond R. Cunningham (the former president and chief executive officer of IFG and a former member of the board of directors of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG), Timothy J. Miller (the former chief investment officer and a former portfolio manager for IFG), Thomas A. Kolbe (the former national sales manager of IFG) and Michael D. Legoski (a former assistant vice president in IFG's sales department). As part of these settlements, the SEC ordered these individuals to pay restitution and civil penalties in various amounts and prohibited them from associating with, or serving as an officer or director of, an investment advisor, broker, dealer and/or investment company, as applicable, for certain periods of time.
The payments made in connection with the above-referenced settlements by IFG, AIM and ADI will total approximately $375 million (not including AIM's agreement to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004). The manner in which the settlement payments will be distributed is unknown at the present time and will be determined by an independent distribution consultant appointed under the settlement agreements. Therefore, management of AIM and the Fund are unable at the present time to estimate the impact, if any, that the distribution of the settlement payments may have on the Fund or whether such distribution will have an impact on the Fund's financial statements in the future.
At the present time, management of AIM and the Fund are unable to estimate the impact, if any, that the outcome of the Regulatory Inquiries and Pending Litigation described below may have on AIM, ADI or the Fund.

REGULATORY INQUIRIES AND PENDING LITIGATION

The mutual fund industry as a whole is currently subject to regulatory inquiries and litigation related to a wide range of issues. These issues include, among others, market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including but not limited to revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans, procedures for locating lost security holders and participation in class action settlements.
As described more fully below, IFG and AIM are the subject of a number of ongoing regulatory inquiries and civil lawsuits related to one or more of the issues currently being scrutinized by various Federal and state regulators, including but not limited to those issues described above. Additional regulatory actions and/or civil lawsuits related to the above or other issues may be filed against the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future. Additional regulatory inquiries related to the above or other issues also may be received by the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future.

NOTE 13--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Ongoing Regulatory Inquiries Concerning IFG and AIM

IFG, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more such Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, and investments in securities of other registered investment companies. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, Inc. ("NASD"), the Florida Department of Financial Services, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. IFG and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the United States Department of Labor ("DOL") and the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, some of which concern one or more of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG. IFG is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.
AIM, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans and procedures for locating lost securityholders. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, the Department of Banking for the State of Connecticut, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. AIM and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the SEC, the NASD, the DOL, the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, the United States Attorney's Office for the Central District of California, the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Securities Division, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds. AIM is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.

Pending Regulatory Civil Action Alleging Market Timing

On April 12, 2005, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia ("WVAG") filed civil proceedings against AIM, IFG and ADI, as well as numerous unrelated mutual fund complexes and financial institutions. None of the AIM Funds has been named as a defendant in these proceedings. The WVAG complaint, filed in the Circuit Court of Marshall County, West Virginia [Civil Action No. 05-C-81], alleges, in substance, that AIM, IFG and ADI engaged in unfair competition and/or unfair or deceptive trade practices by failing to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG, that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the WVAG alleges violations of W. Va. Code (S) 46A-1-101, et seq. (the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act). The WVAG complaint is seeking injunctive relief; civil monetary penalties; a writ of quo warranto against the defendants; pre-judgment and post-judgment interest; costs and expenses, including counsel fees; and other relief.
If AIM is unsuccessful in its defense of the WVAG proceedings, it could be barred from serving as an investment adviser for any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a "registered investment company"). Such results could affect the ability of AIM or any other investment advisor directly or indirectly owned by AMVESCAP, from serving as an investment advisor to any registered investment company, including your Fund. Your Fund has been informed by AIM that, if these results occur, AIM will seek exemptive relief from the SEC to permit it to continue to serve as your Fund's investment advisor. There is no assurance that such exemptive relief will be granted.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Market Timing

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG, AIM, AIM Management, AMVESCAP, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain unrelated third parties) making allegations that are similar in many respects to those in the settled regulatory actions brought by the SEC, the NYAG and the COAG concerning market timing activity in the AIM Funds. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal and state securities laws; (ii) violation of various provisions of ERISA; (iii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iv) breach of contract. These lawsuits were initiated in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory damages; restitution; injunctive relief; disgorgement of management fees; imposition of a constructive trust; removal of certain directors and/or employees; various corrective measures under ERISA; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements; interest; and attorneys' and experts' fees.
All lawsuits based on allegations of market timing, late trading, and related issues have been transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland (the "MDL Court") for consolidated or coordinated pre-trial proceedings. Pursuant to an Order of the MDL Court, plaintiffs consolidated their claims for pre-trial purposes into three amended complaints against various AIM- and IFG-related parties: (i) a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of shareholders of the AIM Funds; (ii) a Consolidated Amended Fund Derivative Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of the AIM Funds and fund registrants; and (iii) an Amended Class Action Complaint for Violations of the Employee Retirement Income Securities Act ("ERISA") purportedly brought on behalf of participants in AMVESCAP's 401(k) plan. The plaintiffs in two of the underlying lawsuits continue to seek remand of their lawsuit to state court.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Use of Fair Value Pricing

Multiple civil class action lawsuits have been filed against various parties
(including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG and/or AIM)
alleging that certain AIM Funds inadequately employed fair value pricing. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violations of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) common law breach of duty; and (iii) common law negligence and gross negligence. These lawsuits have been filed in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; interest; and attorneys' fees and costs. Based on a recent court decision, the state court action has been removed to Federal court.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Excessive Advisory and/or Distribution Fees

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("IINA"), ADI and/or INVESCO Distributors, Inc. ("INVESCO Distributors")) alleging that the defendants charged excessive advisory and/or distribution fees and failed to pass on to shareholders the perceived savings generated by economies of scale. Certain of these lawsuits also allege that the defendants adopted unlawful distribution plans. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iii) breach of contract. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans; interest; prospective relief in the form of reduced fees; and attorneys' and experts' fees. All of these lawsuits have been transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division and subsequently consolidated for pre-trial purposes into one lawsuit.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Charging of Distribution Fees on Limited Offering Funds or Share Classes

Multiple civil lawsuits, including shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by charging distribution fees while funds and/or specific share classes were closed generally to new investors and/or while other share classes of the same fund were not charged the same distribution fees. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; and (ii) breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; and attorneys' and experts' fees.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Mutual Fund Sales Practices and Directed-Brokerage Arrangements

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, AIM Management, IFG, AIM, AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AIS") and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants improperly used the assets of the AIM Funds to pay brokers to aggressively promote the sale of the AIM Funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans and recovery of all fees paid; an accounting of all fund-related fees, commissions and soft dollar payments; restitution of all unlawfully or discriminatorily obtained fees and charges; and attorneys' and experts' fees. These actions have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes.

Private Civil Action Alleging Failure to Ensure Participation in Class Action Settlements

A civil lawsuit, purporting to be a class action lawsuit, has been filed against AIM, IINA, A I M Capital Management, Inc. and the trustees of the AIM Funds alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the AIM Funds participated in class action settlements in which the AIM Funds were eligible to participate. This lawsuit alleges as theories of recovery: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws;
(ii) common law breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) common law negligence. This lawsuit has been filed in Federal court and seeks such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; forfeiture of all commissions and fees paid by the class of plaintiffs; and costs and attorneys' fees.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * As a result of the matters discussed above, investors in the AIM Funds might react by redeeming their investments. This might require the Funds to sell investments to provide for sufficient liquidity and could also have an adverse effect on the investment performance of the Funds.

These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at March 31, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2005

NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

AIM Financial Services Fund, formerly INVESCO Financial Services Fund, (the "Fund") is a series portfolio of AIM Sector Funds (the "Trust"). The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end series management investment company consisting of seven separate portfolios, each authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest. The Fund currently offers multiple classes of shares. Matters affecting each portfolio or class will be voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio or class. The assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the Fund.
The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital growth. Each company listed in the Schedule of Investments is organized in the United States of America unless otherwise noted.
Under the Trust's organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust's investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities, including restricted securities, are valued according to the following policy. A security listed or traded on an exchange (except convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular day, the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but not securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market System) is valued on the basis of prices furnished by independent pricing services, which may be considered fair valued, or market makers. Each security reported on the NASDAQ National Market System is valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") as of the close of the customary trading session on the valuation date or absent a NOCP, at the closing bid price.
Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by an exchange on which they are principally traded. Listed options are valued at the mean between the last bid and the ask prices from the exchange on which they are principally traded. Options not listed on an exchange are valued by an independent source at the mean between the last bid and ask prices. For purposes of determining net asset value per share, futures and option contracts generally will be valued 15 minutes after the close of the customary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE").
Investments in open-end registered investment companies and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share. Investments in closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to specific securities, dividend rate, yield, quality, type of issue, coupon rate, maturity, individual trading characteristics and other market data. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity and commercial paper are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods are valued based upon quotes furnished by independent sources and are valued at the last bid price in the case of equity securities and in the case of debt obligations, the mean between the last bid and asked prices.
Foreign securities (including foreign exchange contracts) are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of the close of the NYSE. Generally, trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of the close of the respective markets. Events affecting the values of such foreign securities may occur between the times at which the particular foreign market closes and the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE which would not ordinarily be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value. If the event is likely to have affected the closing price of the security, the security will be valued at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Adjustments to closing prices to reflect fair value may also be based on a screening process of an independent pricing service to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. Foreign securities meeting the approved degree of certainty that the price is not reflective of current market value will be priced at the indication of fair value from the independent pricing service. Multiple factors may be considered by the independent pricing service in determining adjustments to reflect fair value and may include information relating to sector indices, ADRs and domestic and foreign index futures.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Trust's officers following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Issuer specific events, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and information providers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security's fair value. B. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

FS-24


Brokerage commissions and mark ups are considered transaction costs and are recorded as an increase to the cost basis of securities purchased and/or a reduction of proceeds on a sale of securities. Such transaction costs are included in the determination of realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investment securities reported in the Statement of Operations and the Statement of Changes in Net Assets and the realized and unrealized net gains (losses) on securities per share in the Financial Highlights. Transaction costs are included in the calculation of the Fund's net asset value and, accordingly, they reduce the Fund's total returns. These transaction costs are not considered operating expenses and are not reflected in net investment income reported in the Statement of Operations and Statement of Changes in Net Assets, or the net investment income per share and ratios of expenses and net investment income reported in the Financial Highlights, nor are they limited by any expense limitation arrangements between the Fund and the advisor.
The Fund allocates income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses to a class based on the relative net assets of each class. C. DISTRIBUTIONS -- Distributions from income and net realized capital gain, if any, are generally paid annually and recorded on ex-dividend date. The Fund may elect to use a portion of the proceeds from redemptions as distributions for federal income tax purposes.
D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gain) which is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is recorded in the financial statements. E. EXPENSES -- Fees provided for under the Rule 12b-1 plan of a particular class of the Fund and which are directly attributable to that class are charged to the operations of such class. All other expenses are allocated among the classes based on relative net assets.
F. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS -- Foreign currency is valued at the close of the NYSE based on quotations posted by banks and major currency dealers. Portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities (net of foreign taxes withheld on disposition) and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not separately account for the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments and the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. The combined results of changes in foreign exchange rates and the fluctuation of market prices on investments (net of estimated foreign tax withholding) are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments in the Statement of Operations. Reported net realized foreign currency gains or losses arise from, (i) sales of foreign currencies, (ii) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and (iii) the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign currency gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
G. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- A foreign currency contract is an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund may enter into a foreign currency contract to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a foreign currency contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency in order to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably.

NOTE 2--ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER FEES PAID TO AFFILIATES

The Trust has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee based on the annual rate of the Fund's average daily net assets as follows:

AVERAGE NET ASSETS  RATE
-------------------------
First $350 million  0.75%
-------------------------
Next $350 million   0.65%
-------------------------
Next $1.3 billion   0.55%
-------------------------
Next $2 billion     0.45%
-------------------------
Next $2 billion     0.40%
-------------------------
Next $2 billion    0.375%
-------------------------
Over $8 billion     0.35%
-------------------------

Prior to September 30, 2004, AIM had entered into a sub-advisory agreement with INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("INVESCO") whereby AIM paid INVESCO 40% of the fee paid by the Fund to AIM. Effective September 30, 2004, the sub-advisory agreement between AIM and INVESCO was terminated.
AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares to 1.40%, 2.05%, 2.05%, 1.50% and 1.30% of average daily net assets, respectively. AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares to 2.00%, 2.65%, 2.65%, 2.10% and 1.90% of average daily net assets, respectively, through March 31, 2006. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the total annual fund operating expenses to exceed the limits stated above: (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expense on short sales; (iv) extraordinary items (these are expenses that are not anticipated to arise from the Fund's day-to-day operations), or items designated as such by the Fund's Board of Trustees; (v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees; and (vi) expenses that the Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Currently, in addition to the expense reimbursement arrangement with AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP")

FS-25


described more fully below, the only expense offset arrangements from which the Fund may benefit are in the form of credits that the Fund receives from banks where the Fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. Those credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by the Fund. AIM did not waive fees and/or reimburse expenses during the period under this expense limitation.
Further, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund in the amount of 25% of the advisory fee AIM receives from the affiliated money market funds on investments by the Fund in such affiliated money market funds. AIM is also voluntarily waiving a portion of the advisory fee payable by the Fund equal to the difference between the income earned from investing in the affiliated money market fund and the hypothetical income earned from investing in an appropriate comparative benchmark. Voluntary fee waivers or reimbursements may be modified or discontinued at any time upon consultation with the Board of Trustees without further notice to investors.
For the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM waived fees of $15,532. For the year ended March 31, 2005, at the request of the Trustees of the Trust, AMVESCAP agreed to reimburse $113,345 of expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with market timing matters in the AIM Funds, including legal, audit, shareholder reporting, communications and trustee expenses. These expenses along with the related expense reimbursement, are included in the Statement of Operations.
The Fund, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with AIM, has agreed to pay AIM for certain administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund. Pursuant to such agreement, for the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM was paid $305,430.
The Fund, pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement, has agreed to pay AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AISI") a fee for providing transfer agency and shareholder services to the Fund and reimburse AISI for certain expenses incurred by AISI in the course of providing such services. AISI may make payments to intermediaries that provide omnibus account services, sub-accounting services and/or networking services. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid AISI $2,698,643.
The Trust has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") to serve as the distributor for the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares of the Fund. The Trust has adopted plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with respect to the Fund's Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares (collectively the "Plans"). The Fund, pursuant to the Plans, pays ADI compensation at the annual rate of 0.35% of the Fund's average daily net assets of Class A shares, 1.00% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares, 0.45% of the average daily net assets of Class K shares and 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Investor Class shares. Of these amounts, up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K or Investor Class shares may be paid to furnish continuing personal shareholder services to customers who purchase and own shares of such classes. Any amounts not paid as a service fee under the Plans would constitute an asset-based sales charge. NASD Rules also impose a cap on the total sales charges, including asset-based sales charges that may be paid by any class of shares of the Fund. Pursuant to the Plans, for the year ended March 31, 2005, the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares paid ADI $337,588, $787,233, $306,114, $6,274 and $1,840,273, respectively.
Front-end sales commissions and contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSC") (collectively the "sales charges") are not recorded as expenses of the Fund. Front-end sales commissions are deducted from proceeds from the sales of Fund shares prior to investment in Class A shares of the Fund. CDSC are deducted from redemption proceeds prior to remittance to the shareholder. During the year ended March 31, 2005, ADI advised the Fund that it retained $21,120 in front-end sales commissions from the sale of Class A shares and $203, $11,539, $3,138 and $0 from Class A, Class B, Class C and Class K shares, respectively, for CDSC imposed upon redemptions by shareholders.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are officers and directors of AIM, AISI and/or ADI.

NOTE 3--INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES

The Fund is permitted, pursuant to an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and approved procedures by the Board of Trustees, to invest daily available cash balances in affiliated money market funds. The Fund and the money market fund below have the same investment advisor and therefore, are considered to be affiliated. The table below shows the transactions in and earnings from investments in an affiliated money market fund for the year ended March 31, 2005.

NOTE 4--SECURITY TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED FUNDS

The Fund is permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain other AIM Funds under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by the Fund from or to another fund or portfolio that is or could be considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common Trustees and/or common officers complies with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Further, as defined under the procedures, each transaction is effected at the current market price. Pursuant to these procedures, during the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund engaged in purchases and sales of securities of $4,252,743 and $0, respectively.

FS-26


NOTE 5--EXPENSE OFFSET ARRANGEMENTS

The expense offset arrangements are comprised of (i) transfer agency credits which result from balances in Demand Deposit Accounts (DDA) used by the transfer agent for clearing shareholder transactions and (ii) custodian credits which result from periodic overnight cash balances at the custodian. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received credits from these arrangements which resulted in the reduction of the Fund's total expenses of $13,092.

NOTE 6--TRUSTEES' FEES

Trustees' fees represent remuneration paid to each Trustee of the Trust who is not an "interested person" of AIM. Trustees have the option to defer compensation payable by the Trust. Those Trustees who defer compensation have the option to select various AIM Funds in which their deferral accounts shall be deemed to be invested.
Current Trustees are eligible to participate in a retirement plan that provides for benefits to be paid upon retirement to Trustees over a period of time based on the number of years of service. The Fund may have certain former Trustees that also participate in a retirement plan and receive benefits under such plan.
Obligations under the deferred compensation and retirement plans represent unsecured claims against the general assets of the Fund.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid legal fees of $6,684 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel LLP as counsel to the Independent Trustees. A member of that firm is a Trustee of the Trust.

NOTE 7--BORROWINGS

Pursuant to an exemptive order from the SEC, the Fund may participate in an interfund lending facility that AIM has established for temporary borrowings by the AIM Funds. An interfund loan will be made under this facility only if the loan rate (an average of the rate available on bank loans and the rate available on investments in overnight repurchase agreements) is favorable to both the lending fund and the borrowing fund. A loan will be secured by collateral if the Fund's aggregate borrowings from all sources exceeds 10% of the Fund's total assets. To the extent that the loan is required to be secured by collateral, the collateral is marked to market daily to ensure that the market value is at least 102% of the outstanding principal value of the loan.
The Fund is a participant in an uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility with State Street Bank and Trust Company ("SSB"). The Fund may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $125,000,000, or (ii) the limits set by its prospectus for borrowings. The Fund and other funds advised by AIM which are parties to the credit facility can borrow on a first come, first served basis. Principal on each loan outstanding shall bear interest at the bid rate quoted by SSB at the time of the request for the loan.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund did not borrow or lend under the interfund lending facility or borrow under the uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility.
Additionally, the Fund is permitted to temporarily carry a negative or overdrawn balance in its account with SSB, the custodian bank. To compensate the custodian bank for such overdrafts, the overdrawn Fund may either (i) leave funds in the account so the custodian can be compensated by earning the additional interest; or (ii) compensate by paying the custodian bank. In either case, the custodian bank will be compensated at an amount equal to the Federal Funds rate plus 100 basis points.

FS-27


The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is due to differences in the timing of recognition of gains and losses on investments for tax and book purposes. The Fund's unrealized appreciation (depreciation) difference is attributable primarily to the deferral of losses on wash sales.
The temporary book/tax differences are a result of timing differences between book and tax recognition of income and/or expenses. The Fund's temporary book/tax differences are the result of the trustee deferral of compensation and retirement plan expenses.
The Fund does not have a capital loss carryforward as of March 31, 2005.

NOTE 9--INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term securities and money market funds) purchased and sold by the Fund during the year ended March 31, 2005 was $478,435,076 and $733,512,520, respectively.
At the request of the Trustees, AIM recovered third party research credits during the year ended March 31, 2005, in the amount of $24,776. These research credits were recorded as realized gains.

                UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) OF
                   INVESTMENT SECURITIES ON A TAX BASIS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aggregate unrealized appreciation of investment securities   $167,640,531
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aggregate unrealized (depreciation) of investment securities  (29,079,791)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities         $138,560,740
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cost of investments for tax purposes is $665,895,249.

NOTE 10--RECLASSIFICATION OF PERMANENT DIFFERENCES

Primarily as a result of differing book/tax treatment of foreign currency transactions, the use of a portion of the proceeds from redemptions as distributions and expenses related to the plan of reorganization on March 31, 2005, undistributed net investment income was increased by $26,488, undistributed net realized gain was decreased by $4,781,713 and shares of beneficial interest increased by $4,755,225. This reclassification had no effect on the net assets of the Fund.

SETTLED ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS RELATED TO MARKET TIMING

On October 8, 2004, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. ("IFG") (the former investment advisor to certain AIM Funds) and A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM") (the Fund's investment advisor) reached final settlements with certain regulators, including without limitation the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the New York Attorney General ("NYAG") and the Colorado Attorney General ("COAG"), to resolve civil enforcement actions and investigations related to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG. These regulators alleged, in substance, that IFG and AIM failed to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds that they advised and to the independent directors/trustees of such Funds that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds, thereby breaching their fiduciary duties to such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the regulators alleged that IFG and AIM breached various Federal and state securities, business and consumer protection laws. On the same date, A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") (the distributor of the retail AIM Funds) reached a final settlement with the SEC to resolve an investigation relating to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds. The SEC also alleged that ADI violated various Federal securities laws. The SEC also has settled related market timing enforcement actions brought against certain former officers and employees of IFG.
Under the terms of the settlements, IFG agreed to pay a total of $325 million, of which $110 million is civil penalties. Of this $325 million total payment, half has been paid and the remaining half will be paid on or before December 31, 2005. AIM and ADI agreed to pay a total of $50 million, of which $30 million is civil penalties, all of which has been paid. The entire $325 million IFG settlement fund will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds that IFG formerly advised that were harmed by market timing activity, and the entire $50 million settlement fund by AIM and ADI will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds advised by AIM that were harmed by market timing activity, all as to be determined by an independent distribution consultant. The IFG and AIM settlement funds may increase as a result of contributions from third parties who reach final settlements with the SEC or other regulators to resolve allegations of market timing and/or late trading. The settlement funds will be distributed in accordance with a methodology to be determined by the independent distribution consultant, in consultation with AIM and the independent trustees of the AIM Funds and acceptable to the staff of the SEC. Under the settlements with the NYAG and COAG, AIM has agreed to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004, not to increase certain management fees and to provide more information to investors regarding fees.
Under the terms of the settlements, AIM is undertaking certain governance and compliance reforms, including maintaining an internal controls committee and retaining an independent compliance consultant and a corporate ombudsman. Also, commencing in 2007 and at least once every other year thereafter, AIM will undergo a compliance review by an independent third party. In addition, under the terms of the settlements, AIM has undertaken to cause the AIM Funds to operate in accordance with certain governance policies and practices, including retaining a full-time independent senior officer whose duties include monitoring compliance and managing the process by which proposed management fees to be charged the AIM Funds are negotiated. Also, commencing in 2008 and not less than every fifth calendar year thereafter, the AIM Funds will hold shareholder meetings at which their Boards of Trustees will be elected.
At the request of the trustees of the AIM Funds, AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP"), the parent company of IFG and AIM, has agreed to reimburse expenses incurred by such Funds related to market timing matters.
The SEC has also settled market timing enforcement actions against Raymond R. Cunningham (the former president and chief executive officer of IFG and a former member of the board of directors of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG), Timothy J. Miller (the former chief investment officer and a former portfolio manager for IFG), Thomas A. Kolbe (the former national sales manager of IFG) and Michael D. Legoski (a former assistant vice president in IFG's sales department). As part of these settlements, the SEC ordered these individuals to pay restitution and civil penalties in various amounts and prohibited them from associating with, or serving as an officer or director of, an investment advisor, broker, dealer and/or investment company, as applicable, for certain periods of time.
The payments made in connection with the above-referenced settlements by IFG, AIM and ADI will total approximately $375 million (not including AIM's agreement to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004). The manner in which the settlement payments will be distributed is unknown at the present time and will be determined by an independent distribution consultant appointed under the settlement agreements. Therefore, management of AIM and the Fund are unable at the present time to estimate the impact, if any, that the distribution of the settlement payments may have on the Fund or whether such distribution will have an impact on the Fund's financial statements in the future.
At the present time, management of AIM and the Fund are unable to estimate the impact, if any, that the outcome of the Regulatory Inquiries and Pending Litigation described below may have on AIM, ADI or the Fund.

REGULATORY INQUIRIES AND PENDING LITIGATION

The mutual fund industry as a whole is currently subject to regulatory inquiries and litigation related to a wide range of issues. These issues include, among others, market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including but not limited to revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans, procedures for locating lost security holders and participation in class action settlements.
As described more fully below, IFG and AIM are the subject of a number of ongoing regulatory inquiries and civil lawsuits related to one or more of the issues currently being scrutinized by various Federal and state regulators, including but not limited to those issues described above. Additional regulatory actions and/or civil lawsuits related to the above or other issues may be filed against the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future. Additional regulatory inquiries related to the above or other issues also may be received by the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future.

NOTE 13--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Ongoing Regulatory Inquiries Concerning IFG and AIM

IFG, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more such Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, and investments in securities of other registered investment companies. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, Inc. ("NASD"), the Florida Department of Financial Services, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. IFG and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the United States Department of Labor ("DOL") and the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, some of which concern one or more of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG. IFG is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.
AIM, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans and procedures for locating lost securityholders. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, the Department of Banking for the State of Connecticut, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. AIM and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the SEC, the NASD, the DOL, the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, the United States Attorney's Office for the Central District of California, the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Securities Division, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds. AIM is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.

Pending Regulatory Civil Action Alleging Market Timing

On April 12, 2005, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia ("WVAG") filed civil proceedings against AIM, IFG and ADI, as well as numerous unrelated mutual fund complexes and financial institutions. None of the AIM Funds has been named as a defendant in these proceedings. The WVAG complaint, filed in the Circuit Court of Marshall County, West Virginia [Civil Action No. 05-C-81], alleges, in substance, that AIM, IFG and ADI engaged in unfair competition and/or unfair or deceptive trade practices by failing to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG, that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the WVAG alleges violations of W. Va. Code (S) 46A-1-101, et seq. (the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act). The WVAG complaint is seeking injunctive relief; civil monetary penalties; a writ of quo warranto against the defendants; pre-judgment and post-judgment interest; costs and expenses, including counsel fees; and other relief.
If AIM is unsuccessful in its defense of the WVAG proceedings, it could be barred from serving as an investment adviser for any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a "registered investment company"). Such results could affect the ability of AIM or any other investment advisor directly or indirectly owned by AMVESCAP, from serving as an investment advisor to any registered investment company, including your Fund. Your Fund has been informed by AIM that, if these results occur, AIM will seek exemptive relief from the SEC to permit it to continue to serve as your Fund's investment advisor. There is no assurance that such exemptive relief will be granted.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Market Timing

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG, AIM, AIM Management, AMVESCAP, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain unrelated third parties) making allegations that are similar in many respects to those in the settled regulatory actions brought by the SEC, the NYAG and the COAG concerning market timing activity in the AIM Funds. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal and state securities laws; (ii) violation of various provisions of ERISA; (iii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iv) breach of contract. These lawsuits were initiated in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory damages; restitution; injunctive relief; disgorgement of management fees; imposition of a constructive trust; removal of certain directors and/or employees; various corrective measures under ERISA; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements; interest; and attorneys' and experts' fees.
All lawsuits based on allegations of market timing, late trading, and related issues have been transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland (the "MDL Court") for consolidated or coordinated pre-trial proceedings. Pursuant to an Order of the MDL Court, plaintiffs consolidated their claims for pre-trial purposes into three amended complaints against various AIM- and IFG-related parties: (i) a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of shareholders of the AIM Funds; (ii) a Consolidated Amended Fund Derivative Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of the AIM Funds and fund registrants; and (iii) an Amended Class Action Complaint for Violations of the Employee Retirement Income Securities Act ("ERISA") purportedly brought on behalf of participants in AMVESCAP's 401(k) plan. The plaintiffs in two of the underlying lawsuits continue to seek remand of their lawsuit to state court.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Use of Fair Value Pricing

Multiple civil class action lawsuits have been filed against various parties
(including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG and/or AIM)
alleging that certain AIM Funds inadequately employed fair value pricing. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violations of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) common law breach of duty; and (iii) common law negligence and gross negligence. These lawsuits have been filed in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; interest; and attorneys' fees and costs. Based on a recent court decision, the state court action has been removed to Federal court.

NOTE 13--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Private Civil Actions Alleging Excessive Advisory and/or Distribution Fees

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("IINA"), ADI and/or INVESCO Distributors, Inc. ("INVESCO Distributors")) alleging that the defendants charged excessive advisory and/or distribution fees and failed to pass on to shareholders the perceived savings generated by economies of scale. Certain of these lawsuits also allege that the defendants adopted unlawful distribution plans. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iii) breach of contract. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans; interest; prospective relief in the form of reduced fees; and attorneys' and experts' fees. All of these lawsuits have been transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division and subsequently consolidated for pre-trial purposes into one lawsuit.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Charging of Distribution Fees on Limited Offering Funds or Share Classes

Multiple civil lawsuits, including shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by charging distribution fees while funds and/or specific share classes were closed generally to new investors and/or while other share classes of the same fund were not charged the same distribution fees. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; and (ii) breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; and attorneys' and experts' fees.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Mutual Fund Sales Practices and Directed-Brokerage Arrangements

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, AIM Management, IFG, AIM, AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AIS") and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants improperly used the assets of the AIM Funds to pay brokers to aggressively promote the sale of the AIM Funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans and recovery of all fees paid; an accounting of all fund-related fees, commissions and soft dollar payments; restitution of all unlawfully or discriminatorily obtained fees and charges; and attorneys' and experts' fees. These actions have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes.

Private Civil Action Alleging Failure to Ensure Participation in Class Action Settlements

A civil lawsuit, purporting to be a class action lawsuit, has been filed against AIM, IINA, A I M Capital Management, Inc. and the trustees of the AIM Funds alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the AIM Funds participated in class action settlements in which the AIM Funds were eligible to participate. This lawsuit alleges as theories of recovery: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws;
(ii) common law breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) common law negligence. This lawsuit has been filed in Federal court and seeks such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; forfeiture of all commissions and fees paid by the class of plaintiffs; and costs and attorneys' fees.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * As a result of the matters discussed above, investors in the AIM Funds might react by redeeming their investments. This might require the Funds to sell investments to provide for sufficient liquidity and could also have an adverse effect on the investment performance of the Funds.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2005

NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

AIM Gold & Precious Metals Fund, formerly INVESCO Gold & Precious Metals Fund, (the "Fund") is a series portfolio of AIM Sector Funds (the "Trust"). The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end series management investment company consisting of seven separate portfolios, each authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest. The Fund currently offers multiple classes of shares. Matters affecting each portfolio or class will be voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio or class. The assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the Fund.
The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital growth. Companies are listed in the Schedule of Investments based on the country in which they are organized.
Under the Trust's organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust's investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities, including restricted securities, are valued according to the following policy.
A security listed or traded on an exchange (except convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular day, the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but not securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market System) is valued on the basis of prices furnished by independent pricing services, which may be considered fair valued, or market makers. Each security reported on the NASDAQ National Market System is valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") as of the close of the customary trading session on the valuation date or absent a NOCP, at the closing bid price.
Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by an exchange on which they are principally traded. Listed options are valued at the mean between the last bid and the ask prices from the exchange on which they are principally traded. Options not listed on an exchange are valued by an independent source at the mean between the last bid and ask prices. For purposes of determining net asset value per share, futures and option contracts generally will be valued 15 minutes after the close of the customary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE").
Investments in open-end registered investment companies and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share. Investments in closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to specific securities, dividend rate, yield, quality, type of issue, coupon rate, maturity, individual trading characteristics and other market data. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity and commercial paper are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods are valued based upon quotes furnished by independent sources and are valued at the last bid price in the case of equity securities and in the case of debt obligations, the mean between the last bid and asked prices.
Foreign securities (including foreign exchange contracts) are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of the close of the NYSE. Generally, trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of the close of the respective markets. Events affecting the values of such foreign securities may occur between the times at which the particular foreign market closes and the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE which would not ordinarily be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value. If the event is likely to have affected the closing price of the security, the security will be valued at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Adjustments to closing prices to reflect fair value may also be based on a screening process of an independent pricing service to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. Foreign securities meeting the approved degree of certainty that the price is not reflective of current market value will be priced at the indication of fair value from the independent pricing service. Multiple factors may be considered by the independent pricing service in determining adjustments to reflect fair value and may include information relating to sector indices, ADRs and domestic and foreign index futures.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Trust's officers following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Issuer specific events, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and information providers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security's fair value. B. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

FS-42


Brokerage commissions and mark ups are considered transaction costs and are recorded as an increase to the cost basis of securities purchased and/or a reduction of proceeds on a sale of securities. Such transaction costs are included in the determination of realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investment securities reported in the Statement of Operations and the Statement of Changes in Net Assets and the realized and unrealized net gains (losses) on securities per share in the Financial Highlights. Transaction costs are included in the calculation of the Fund's net asset value and, accordingly, they reduce the Fund's total returns. These transaction costs are not considered operating expenses and are not reflected in net investment income reported in the Statement of Operations and Statement of Changes in Net Assets, or the net investment income per share and ratios of expenses and net investment income reported in the Financial Highlights, nor are they limited by any expense limitation arrangements between the Fund and the advisor.
The Fund allocates income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses to a class based on the relative net assets of each class. C. DISTRIBUTIONS -- Distributions from income and net realized capital gain, if any, are generally paid annually and recorded on ex-dividend date. The Fund may elect to use a portion of the proceeds from redemptions as distributions for federal income tax purposes.
D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gain) which is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is recorded in the financial statements. E. EXPENSES -- Fees provided for under the Rule 12b-1 plan of a particular class of the Fund and which are directly attributable to that class are charged to the operations of such class. All other expenses are allocated among the classes based on relative net assets.
F. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS -- Foreign currency is valued at the close of the NYSE based on quotations posted by banks and major currency dealers. Portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities (net of foreign taxes withheld on disposition) and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not separately account for the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments and the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. The combined results of changes in foreign exchange rates and the fluctuation of market prices on investments (net of estimated foreign tax withholding) are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments in the Statement of Operations. Reported net realized foreign currency gains or losses arise from, (i) sales of foreign currencies, (ii) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and (iii) the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign currency gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
G. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- A foreign currency contract is an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund may enter into a foreign currency contract to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a foreign currency contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency in order to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably.
H. GOLD BULLION -- The Fund may invest up to 10% at the time of purchase of its total assets directly in gold bullion. The two largest national producers of gold bullion are the Republic of South Africa and the former states of the Soviet Union. International monetary and political developments such as currency devaluations, central bank movements and social and economic conditions affecting either country may have a direct impact on the gold industry. The price of gold can be subject to substantial fluctuations over short periods of time. Investments directly in gold bullion will earn no income; appreciation is the sole manner in which the Fund can realize gains on bullion investments. Gold bullion is valued based upon daily quotes provided by banks or brokers dealing in such commodities.

NOTE 2--ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER FEES PAID TO AFFILIATES

The Trust has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee based on the annual rate of the Fund's average daily net assets as follows:

AVERAGE NET ASSETS                                       RATE
--------------------------------------------------------------
First $350 million                                       0.75%
--------------------------------------------------------------
Next $350 million                                        0.65%
--------------------------------------------------------------
Next $1.3 billion                                        0.55%
--------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------
Next $2 billion                                         0.375%
--------------------------------------------------------------
Over $8 billion                                          0.35%
--------------------------------------------------------------

Prior to September 30, 2004, AIM had entered into a sub-advisory agreement with INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("INVESCO") whereby AIM paid INVESCO 40% of the fee paid by the Fund to AIM. Effective September 30, 2004, the sub-advisory agreement between AIM and INVESCO was terminated.
AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares to 2.00%, 2.65%, 2.65% and 1.90% of average daily net assets, respectively, through March 31, 2006. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and

FS-43


could cause the total annual fund operating expenses to exceed the limits stated above: (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expense on short sales;
(iv) extraordinary items (these are expenses that are not anticipated to arise from the Fund's day-to-day operations), or items designated as such by the Fund's Board of Trustees; (v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees; and (vi) expenses that the Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Currently, in addition to the expense reimbursement arrangement with AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP") described more fully below, the only expense offset arrangements from which the Fund may benefit are in the form of credits that the Fund receives from banks where the Fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. Those credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by the Fund. AIM did not waive fee and/or reimburse expenses during the period under this expense limitation. Further, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund in the amount of 25% of the advisory fee AIM receives from the affiliated money market funds on investments by the Fund in such affiliated money market funds (excluding investments made in affiliated money market funds with cash collateral from securities loaned by the fund). AIM is also voluntarily waiving a portion of the advisory fee payable by the Fund equal to the difference between the income earned from investing in the affiliated money market fund and the hypothetical income earned from investing in an appropriate comparative benchmark. Voluntary fee waivers or reimbursements may be modified or discontinued at any time upon consultation with the Board of Trustees without further notice to investors. For the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM waived fees of $3,699. For the year ended March 31, 2005, at the request of the Trustees of the Trust, AMVESCAP agreed to reimburse $22,944 of expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with market timing matters in the AIM Funds, including legal, audit, shareholder reporting, communications and trustee expenses. These expenses along with the related expense reimbursement, are included in the Statement of Operations. The Fund, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with AIM, has agreed to pay AIM for certain administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund. Pursuant to such agreement, for the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM was paid $53,577. The Fund, pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement, has agreed to pay AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AISI") a fee for providing transfer agency and shareholder services to the Fund and reimburse AISI for certain expenses incurred by AISI in the course of providing such services. AISI may make payments to intermediaries that provide omnibus account services, sub-accounting services and/or networking services. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid AISI $460,217. The Trust has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") to serve as the distributor for the Class A, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares of the Fund. The Trust has adopted plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with respect to the Fund's Class A, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares (collectively the "Plans"). The Fund, pursuant to the Plans, pays ADI compensation at the annual rate of 0.35% of the Fund's average daily net assets of Class A shares, 1.00% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares and 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Investor Class shares. Of these amounts, up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, Class B, Class C or Investor Class shares may be paid to furnish continuing personal shareholder services to customers who purchase and own shares of such classes. Any amounts not paid as a service fee under the Plans would constitute an asset-based sales charge. NASD Rules also impose a cap on the total sales charges, including asset-based sales charges that may be paid by any class of shares of the Fund. Pursuant to the Plans, for the year ended March 31, 2005, the Class A, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares paid ADI $29,666, $74,674, $57,257 and $264,664, respectively. Front-end sales commissions and contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSC") (collectively the "sales charges") are not recorded as expenses of the Fund. Front-end sales commissions are deducted from proceeds from the sales of Fund shares prior to investment in Class A shares of the Fund. CDSC are deducted from redemption proceeds prior to remittance to the shareholder. During the year ended March 31, 2005, ADI advised the Fund that it retained $19,236 in front-end sales commissions from the sale of Class A shares and $0, $35,631 and $2,704 from Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for CDSC imposed upon redemptions by shareholders. Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are officers and directors of AIM, AISI and/or ADI.

NOTE 3--INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES

The Fund is permitted, pursuant to an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), to invest daily available cash balances and cash collateral from securities lending transactions in affiliated money market funds. The Fund and the money market funds below have the same investment advisor and therefore, are considered to be affiliated. The tables below show the transactions in and earnings from investments in affiliated money market funds for the year ended March 31, 2005.

NOTE 4--EXPENSE OFFSET ARRANGEMENT

The expense offset arrangement is comprised of transfer agency credits which result from balances in Demand Deposit Accounts (DDA) used by the transfer agent for clearing shareholder transactions. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received credits from this arrangement which resulted in the reduction of the Fund's total expenses of $1,800.

NOTE 5--TRUSTEES' FEES

Trustees' fees represent remuneration paid to each Trustee of the Trust who is not an "interested person" of AIM. Trustees have the option to defer compensation payable by the Trust. Those Trustees who defer compensation have the option to select various AIM Funds in which their deferral accounts shall be deemed to be invested.
Current Trustees are eligible to participate in a retirement plan that provides for benefits to be paid upon retirement to Trustees over a period of time based on the number of years of service. The Fund may have certain former Trustees that also participate in a retirement plan and receive benefits under such plan.
Obligations under the deferred compensation and retirement plans represent unsecured claims against the general assets of the Fund.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid legal fees of $3,815 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel LLP as counsel to the Independent Trustees. A member of that firm is a Trustee of the Trust.

NOTE 6--BORROWINGS

Pursuant to an exemptive order from the SEC, the Fund may participate in an interfund lending facility that AIM has established for temporary borrowings by the AIM Funds. An interfund loan will be made under this facility only if the loan rate (an average of the rate available on bank loans and the rate available on investments in overnight repurchase agreements) is favorable to both the lending fund and the borrowing fund. A loan will be secured by collateral if the Fund's aggregate borrowings from all sources exceeds 10% of the Fund's total assets. To the extent that the loan is required to be secured by collateral, the collateral is marked to market daily to ensure that the market value is at least 102% of the outstanding principal value of the loan.
The Fund is a participant in an uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility with State Street Bank and Trust Company ("SSB"). The Fund may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $125,000,000, or (ii) the limits set by its prospectus for borrowings. The Fund and other funds advised by AIM which are parties to the credit facility can borrow on a first come, first served basis. Principal on each loan outstanding shall bear interest at the bid rate quoted by SSB at the time of the request for the loan.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund did not borrow or lend under the interfund lending facility or borrow under the uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility.
Additionally, the Fund is permitted to temporarily carry a negative or overdrawn balance in its account with SSB, the custodian bank. To compensate the custodian bank for such overdrafts, the overdrawn Fund may either (i) leave funds in the account so the custodian can be compensated by earning the additional interest; or (ii) compensate by paying the custodian bank. In either case, the custodian bank will be compensated at an amount equal to the Federal Funds rate plus 100 basis points.

NOTE 7--PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund may lend portfolio securities having a market value up to one-third of the Fund's total assets. Such loans are secured by collateral equal to no less than the market value of the loaned securities determined daily. Such collateral will be cash or debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies. Cash collateral received in connection with these loans is invested in short-term money market instruments or affiliated money market funds. It is the Fund's policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. The Fund could also experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the collateral available for return to the borrower due to a loss on the collateral invested.
At March 31, 2005, securities with an aggregate value of $8,590,617 were on loan to brokers. The loans were secured by cash collateral of $8,909,192 received by the Fund and subsequently invested in an affiliated money market fund. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received dividends on cash collateral of $106,091 for securities lending transactions, which is net of rebates.

NOTE 8--DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND TAX COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 was as follows:

                                           2005       2004
-------------------------------------------------------------
Distributions paid from ordinary income $1,386,552 $5,459,228
-------------------------------------------------------------

TAX COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS:

As of March 31, 2005, the components of net assets on a tax basis were as follows:

                                            2005
-----------------------------------------------------
Unrealized appreciation -- investments $   3,066,727
-----------------------------------------------------
Temporary book/tax differences               (22,473)
-----------------------------------------------------
Capital loss carryforward               (132,392,482)
-----------------------------------------------------
Shares of beneficial interest            256,381,370
-----------------------------------------------------
Total net assets                       $ 127,033,142
-----------------------------------------------------

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is due to differences in the timing of recognition of gains and losses on investments for tax and book purposes. The Fund's unrealized appreciation (depreciation) difference is attributable primarily to losses on wash sales. The tax-basis unrealized appreciation on investments amount includes appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currencies of $(3,242).
The temporary book/tax differences are a result of timing differences between book and tax recognition of income and/or expenses. The Fund's temporary book/tax differences are the result of the trustee deferral of compensation and retirement plan expenses, certain corporation actions and mark to market of certain passive foreign investment companies.
Capital loss carryforward is calculated and reported as of a specific date. Results of transactions and other activity after that date may affect the amount of capital loss carryforward actually available for the Fund to utilize. The ability to utilize capital loss carryforward in the future may be limited under the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations based on the results of future transactions.
The Fund utilized $28,089,019 of capital loss carryforward in the current period to offset net realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. The Fund has a capital loss carryforward as of March 31, 2005 which expires as follows:

                                CAPITAL LOSS
EXPIRATION                      CARRYFORWARD*
---------------------------------------------
March 31, 2006                  $ 62,921,708
---------------------------------------------
March 31, 2007                    30,924,521
---------------------------------------------
March 31, 2009                    37,453,344
---------------------------------------------
March 31, 2010                     1,092,909
---------------------------------------------
Total capital loss carryforward $132,392,482
---------------------------------------------

* Capital loss carryforward as of the date listed above is reduced for limitations, if any, to the extent required by the Internal Revenue Code.

NOTE 9--INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term securities and money market funds) purchased and sold by the Fund during the year ended March 31, 2005 was $64,018,416 and $73,585,029, respectively.
At the request of the Trustees, AIM recovered third party research credits during the year ended March 31, 2005, in the amount of $15,226. These research credits were recorded as realized gains.

                    UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) OF
                      INVESTMENT SECURITIES ON A TAX BASIS
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aggregate unrealized appreciation of:
  Investment securities                                             $ 12,024,483

  Gold Bullion                                                         2,154,071
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aggregate unrealized (depreciation) of investment securities         (11,108,585)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities $  3,069,969
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cost of investments for tax purposes is $128,842,189. Cost of Gold Bullion for tax purposes is $4,266,032.

NOTE 10--RECLASSIFICATION OF PERMANENT DIFFERENCES

Primarily as a result of differing book/tax treatment of passive foreign investment companies, net operating losses, foreign currency transactions and expenses related to the plan of reorganization, on March 31, 2005, undistributed net investment income (loss) was increased by $849,853, undistributed net realized gain (loss) decreased by $486,916 and shares of beneficial interest decreased by $362,937. This reclassification had no effect on the net assets of the Fund.

NOTE 11--SHARE INFORMATION

The Fund currently offers four different classes of shares: Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares and the Investor Class shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. Class B shares and Class C shares are sold with CDSC. Investor Class shares are sold at net asset value. Under certain circumstances, Class A shares are subject to CDSC. Generally, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after the end of the calendar month of purchase.

NOTE 13--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

SETTLED ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS RELATED TO MARKET TIMING

On October 8, 2004, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. ("IFG") (the former investment advisor to certain AIM Funds) and A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM") (the Fund's investment advisor) reached final settlements with certain regulators, including without limitation the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the New York Attorney General ("NYAG") and the Colorado Attorney General ("COAG"), to resolve civil enforcement actions and investigations related to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG. These regulators alleged, in substance, that IFG and AIM failed to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds that they advised and to the independent directors/trustees of such Funds that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds, thereby breaching their fiduciary duties to such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the regulators alleged that IFG and AIM breached various Federal and state securities, business and consumer protection laws. On the same date, A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") (the distributor of the retail AIM Funds) reached a final settlement with the SEC to resolve an investigation relating to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds. The SEC also alleged that ADI violated various Federal securities laws. The SEC also has settled related market timing enforcement actions brought against certain former officers and employees of IFG.
Under the terms of the settlements, IFG agreed to pay a total of $325 million, of which $110 million is civil penalties. Of this $325 million total payment, half has been paid and the remaining half will be paid on or before December 31, 2005. AIM and ADI agreed to pay a total of $50 million, of which $30 million is civil penalties, all of which has been paid. The entire $325 million IFG settlement fund will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds that IFG formerly advised that were harmed by market timing activity, and the entire $50 million settlement fund by AIM and ADI will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds advised by AIM that were harmed by market timing activity, all as to be determined by an independent distribution consultant. The IFG and AIM settlement funds may increase as a result of contributions from third parties who reach final settlements with the SEC or other regulators to resolve allegations of market timing and/or late trading. The settlement funds will be distributed in accordance with a methodology to be determined by the independent distribution consultant, in consultation with AIM and the independent trustees of the AIM Funds and acceptable to the staff of the SEC. Under the settlements with the NYAG and COAG, AIM has agreed to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004, not to increase certain management fees and to provide more information to investors regarding fees.
Under the terms of the settlements, AIM is undertaking certain governance and compliance reforms, including maintaining an internal controls committee and retaining an independent compliance consultant and a corporate ombudsman. Also, commencing in 2007 and at least once every other year thereafter, AIM will undergo a compliance review by an independent third party. In addition, under the terms of the settlements, AIM has undertaken to cause the AIM Funds to operate in accordance with certain governance policies and practices, including retaining a full-time independent senior officer whose duties include monitoring compliance and managing the process by which proposed management fees to be charged the AIM Funds are negotiated. Also, commencing in 2008 and not less than every fifth calendar year thereafter, the AIM Funds will hold shareholder meetings at which their Boards of Trustees will be elected.
At the request of the trustees of the AIM Funds, AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP"), the parent company of IFG and AIM, has agreed to reimburse expenses incurred by such Funds related to market timing matters.
The SEC has also settled market timing enforcement actions against Raymond R. Cunningham (the former president and chief executive officer of IFG and a former member of the board of directors of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG), Timothy J. Miller (the former chief investment officer and a former portfolio manager for IFG), Thomas A. Kolbe (the former national sales manager of IFG) and Michael D. Legoski (a former assistant vice president in IFG's sales department). As part of these settlements, the SEC ordered these individuals to pay restitution and civil penalties in various amounts and prohibited them from associating with, or serving as an officer or director of, an investment advisor, broker, dealer and/or investment company, as applicable, for certain periods of time.
The payments made in connection with the above-referenced settlements by IFG, AIM and ADI will total approximately $375 million (not including AIM's agreement to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004). The manner in which the settlement payments will be distributed is unknown at the present time and will be determined by an independent distribution consultant appointed under the settlement agreements. Therefore, management of AIM and the Fund are unable at the present time to estimate the impact, if any, that the distribution of the settlement payments may have on the Fund or whether such distribution will have an impact on the Fund's financial statements in the future.
At the present time, management of AIM and the Fund are unable to estimate the impact, if any, that the outcome of the Regulatory Inquiries and Pending Litigation described below may have on AIM, ADI or the Fund.

REGULATORY INQUIRIES AND PENDING LITIGATION

The mutual fund industry as a whole is currently subject to regulatory inquiries and litigation related to a wide range of issues. These issues include, among others, market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including but not limited to revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans, procedures for locating lost security holders and participation in class action settlements.
As described more fully below, IFG and AIM are the subject of a number of ongoing regulatory inquiries and civil lawsuits related to one or more of the issues currently being scrutinized by various Federal and state regulators, including but not limited to those issues described above. Additional regulatory actions and/or civil lawsuits related to the above or other issues may be filed against the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future. Additional regulatory inquiries related to the above or other issues also may be received by the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future.

NOTE 13--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Ongoing Regulatory Inquiries Concerning IFG and AIM

IFG, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more such Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, and investments in securities of other registered investment companies. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, Inc. ("NASD"), the Florida Department of Financial Services, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. IFG and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the United States Department of Labor ("DOL") and the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, some of which concern one or more of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG. IFG is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.
AIM, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans and procedures for locating lost securityholders. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, the Department of Banking for the State of Connecticut, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. AIM and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the SEC, the NASD, the DOL, the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, the United States Attorney's Office for the Central District of California, the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Securities Division, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds. AIM is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.

Pending Regulatory Civil Action Alleging Market Timing

On April 12, 2005, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia ("WVAG") filed civil proceedings against AIM, IFG and ADI, as well as numerous unrelated mutual fund complexes and financial institutions. None of the AIM Funds has been named as a defendant in these proceedings. The WVAG complaint, filed in the Circuit Court of Marshall County, West Virginia [Civil Action No. 05-C-81], alleges, in substance, that AIM, IFG and ADI engaged in unfair competition and/or unfair or deceptive trade practices by failing to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG, that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the WVAG alleges violations of W. Va. Code (S) 46A-1-101, et seq. (the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act). The WVAG complaint is seeking injunctive relief; civil monetary penalties; a writ of quo warranto against the defendants; pre-judgment and post-judgment interest; costs and expenses, including counsel fees; and other relief.
If AIM is unsuccessful in its defense of the WVAG proceedings, it could be barred from serving as an investment adviser for any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a "registered investment company"). Such results could affect the ability of AIM or any other investment advisor directly or indirectly owned by AMVESCAP, from serving as an investment advisor to any registered investment company, including your Fund. Your Fund has been informed by AIM that, if these results occur, AIM will seek exemptive relief from the SEC to permit it to continue to serve as your Fund's investment advisor. There is no assurance that such exemptive relief will be granted.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Market Timing

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG, AIM, AIM Management, AMVESCAP, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain unrelated third parties) making allegations that are similar in many respects to those in the settled regulatory actions brought by the SEC, the NYAG and the COAG concerning market timing activity in the AIM Funds. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal and state securities laws; (ii) violation of various provisions of ERISA; (iii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iv) breach of contract. These lawsuits were initiated in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory damages; restitution; injunctive relief; disgorgement of management fees; imposition of a constructive trust; removal of certain directors and/or employees; various corrective measures under ERISA; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements; interest; and attorneys' and experts' fees.
All lawsuits based on allegations of market timing, late trading, and related issues have been transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland (the "MDL Court") for consolidated or coordinated pre-trial proceedings. Pursuant to an Order of the MDL Court, plaintiffs consolidated their claims for pre-trial purposes into three amended complaints against various AIM- and IFG-related parties: (i) a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of shareholders of the AIM Funds; (ii) a Consolidated Amended Fund Derivative Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of the AIM Funds and fund registrants; and (iii) an Amended Class Action Complaint for Violations of the Employee Retirement Income Securities Act ("ERISA") purportedly brought on behalf of participants in AMVESCAP's 401(k) plan. The plaintiffs in two of the underlying lawsuits continue to seek remand of their lawsuit to state court.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Use of Fair Value Pricing

Multiple civil class action lawsuits have been filed against various parties
(including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG and/or AIM)
alleging that certain AIM Funds inadequately employed fair value pricing. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violations of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) common law breach of duty; and (iii) common law negligence and gross negligence. These lawsuits have been filed in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; interest; and attorneys' fees and costs. Based on a recent court decision, the state court action has been removed to Federal court.

NOTE 13--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Private Civil Actions Alleging Excessive Advisory and/or Distribution Fees

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("IINA"), ADI and/or INVESCO Distributors, Inc. ("INVESCO Distributors")) alleging that the defendants charged excessive advisory and/or distribution fees and failed to pass on to shareholders the perceived savings generated by economies of scale. Certain of these lawsuits also allege that the defendants adopted unlawful distribution plans. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iii) breach of contract. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans; interest; prospective relief in the form of reduced fees; and attorneys' and experts' fees. All of these lawsuits have been transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division and subsequently consolidated for pre-trial purposes into one lawsuit.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Charging of Distribution Fees on Limited Offering Funds or Share Classes

Multiple civil lawsuits, including shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by charging distribution fees while funds and/or specific share classes were closed generally to new investors and/or while other share classes of the same fund were not charged the same distribution fees. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; and (ii) breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; and attorneys' and experts' fees.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Mutual Fund Sales Practices and Directed-Brokerage Arrangements

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, AIM Management, IFG, AIM, AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AIS") and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants improperly used the assets of the AIM Funds to pay brokers to aggressively promote the sale of the AIM Funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans and recovery of all fees paid; an accounting of all fund-related fees, commissions and soft dollar payments; restitution of all unlawfully or discriminatorily obtained fees and charges; and attorneys' and experts' fees. These actions have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes.

Private Civil Action Alleging Failure to Ensure Participation in Class Action Settlements

A civil lawsuit, purporting to be a class action lawsuit, has been filed against AIM, IINA, A I M Capital Management, Inc. and the trustees of the AIM Funds alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the AIM Funds participated in class action settlements in which the AIM Funds were eligible to participate. This lawsuit alleges as theories of recovery: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws;
(ii) common law breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) common law negligence. This lawsuit has been filed in Federal court and seeks such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; forfeiture of all commissions and fees paid by the class of plaintiffs; and costs and attorneys' fees.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * As a result of the matters discussed above, investors in the AIM Funds might react by redeeming their investments. This might require the Funds to sell investments to provide for sufficient liquidity and could also have an adverse effect on the investment performance of the Funds.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Trustees
and Shareholders of AIM Leisure Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the AIM Leisure Fund, formerly known as INVESCO Leisure Fund (one of the funds constituting AIM Sector Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at March 31, 2005, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at March 31, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2005

NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

AIM Leisure Fund, formerly INVESCO Leisure Fund, (the "Fund") is a series portfolio of AIM Sector Funds (the "Trust"). The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end series management investment company consisting of seven separate portfolios, each authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest. The Fund currently offers multiple classes of shares. Matters affecting each portfolio or class will be voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio or class. The assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the Fund.
The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital growth. Each company listed in the Schedule of Investments is organized in the United States of America unless otherwise noted.
Under the Trust's organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust's investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities, including restricted securities, are valued according to the following policy.
A security listed or traded on an exchange (except convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular day, the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but not securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market System) is valued on the basis of prices furnished by independent pricing services, which may be considered fair valued, or market makers. Each security reported on the NASDAQ National Market System is valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") as of the close of the customary trading session on the valuation date or absent a NOCP, at the closing bid price.
Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by an exchange on which they are principally traded. Listed options are valued at the mean between the last bid and the ask prices from the exchange on which they are principally traded. Options not listed on an exchange are valued by an independent source at the mean between the last bid and ask prices. For purposes of determining net asset value per share, futures and option contracts generally will be valued 15 minutes after the close of the customary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE").
Investments in open-end registered investment companies and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share. Investments in closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to specific securities, dividend rate, yield, quality, type of issue, coupon rate, maturity, individual trading characteristics and other market data. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity and commercial paper are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods are valued based upon quotes furnished by independent sources and are valued at the last bid price in the case of equity securities and in the case of debt obligations, the mean between the last bid and asked prices.
Foreign securities (including foreign exchange contracts) are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of the close of the NYSE. Generally, trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of the close of the respective markets. Events affecting the values of such foreign securities may occur between the times at which the particular foreign market closes and the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE which would not ordinarily be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value. If the event is likely to have affected the closing price of the security, the security will be valued at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Adjustments to closing prices to reflect fair value may also be based on a screening process of an independent pricing service to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. Foreign securities meeting the approved degree of certainty that the price is not reflective of current market value will be priced at the indication of fair value from the independent pricing service. Multiple factors may be considered by the independent pricing service in determining adjustments to reflect fair value and may include information relating to sector indices, ADRs and domestic and foreign index futures.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Trust's officers following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Issuer specific events, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and information providers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security's fair value. B. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Brokerage commissions and mark ups are considered transaction costs and are recorded as an increase to the cost basis of securities purchased and/or a reduction of proceeds on a sale of securities. Such transaction costs are included in the determination of realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investment securities reported in the Statement of Operations and the Statement of Changes in Net Assets and the realized and unrealized net gains (losses) on securities per share in the Financial Highlights. Transaction costs are included in the calculation of the Fund's net asset value and, accordingly, they reduce the Fund's total returns. These transaction costs are not considered operating expenses and are not reflected in net investment income reported in the Statement of Operations and Statement of Changes in Net Assets, or the net investment income per share and ratios of expenses and net investment income reported in the Financial Highlights, nor are they limited by any expense limitation arrangements between the Fund and the advisor.
The Fund allocates income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses to a class based on the relative net assets of each class. C. DISTRIBUTIONS -- Distributions from income and net realized capital gain, if any, are generally paid annually and recorded on ex-dividend date. The Fund may elect to use a portion of the proceeds from redemptions as distributions for federal income tax purposes.
D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gain) which is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is recorded in the financial statements. E. EXPENSES -- Fees provided for under the Rule 12b-1 plan of a particular class of the Fund and which are directly attributable to that class are charged to the operations of such class. All other expenses are allocated among the classes based on relative net assets.
F. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS -- Foreign currency is valued at the close of the NYSE based on quotations posted by banks and major currency dealers. Portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities (net of foreign taxes withheld on disposition) and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not separately account for the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments and the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. The combined results of changes in foreign exchange rates and the fluctuation of market prices on investments (net of estimated foreign tax withholding) are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments in the Statement of Operations. Reported net realized foreign currency gains or losses arise from, (i) sales of foreign currencies, (ii) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and (iii) the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign currency gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
G. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- A foreign currency contract is an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund may enter into a foreign currency contract to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a foreign currency contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency in order to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably.

NOTE 2--ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER FEES PAID TO AFFILIATES

The Trust has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee based on the annual rate of the Fund's average daily net assets as follows:

AVERAGE NET ASSETS  RATE
-------------------------
First $350 million  0.75%
-------------------------
Next $350 million   0.65%
-------------------------
Next $1.3 billion   0.55%
-------------------------
Next $2 billion     0.45%
-------------------------
Next $2 billion     0.40%
-------------------------
Next $2 billion    0.375%
-------------------------
Over $8 billion     0.35%
-------------------------

Prior to September 30, 2004, AIM had entered into a sub-advisory agreement with INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("INVESCO") whereby AIM paid INVESCO 40% of the fee paid by the Fund to AIM. Effective September 30, 2004, the sub-advisory agreement between AIM and INVESCO was terminated.
AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares to 1.50%, 2.15%, 2.15%, 1.60% and 1.40% of average daily net assets, respectively. AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares to 2.00%, 2.65%, 2.65%, 2.10% and 1.90% of average daily net assets, respectively, through March 31, 2006. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the total annual fund operating expenses to exceed the limits stated above: (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expense on short sales; (iv) extraordinary items (these are expenses that are not anticipated to arise from the Fund's day-to-day operations), or items designated as such by the Fund's Board of Trustees; (v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees; and (vi) expenses that the Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Currently, in addition to the expense reimbursement arrangement with AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP")

FS-63


described more fully below, the only expense offset arrangements from which the Fund may benefit are in the form of credits that the Fund receives from banks where the Fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. Those credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by the Fund. AIM did not waive fees and/or reimburse expenses during the period under this expense limitation.
Further, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund in the amount of 25% of the advisory fee AIM receives from the affiliated money market funds on investments by the Fund in such affiliated money market funds (excluding investments made in affiliated money market funds with cash collateral from securities loaned by the fund). AIM is also voluntarily waiving a portion of the advisory fee payable by the Fund equal to the difference between the income earned from investing in the affiliated money market fund and the hypothetical income earned from investing in an appropriate comparative benchmark. Voluntary fee waivers or reimbursements may be modified or discontinued at any time upon consultation with the Board of Trustees without further notice to investors.
For the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM waived fees of $11,083. For the year ended March 31, 2005, at the request of the Trustees of the Trust, AMVESCAP agreed to reimburse $94,499 of expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with market timing matters in the AIM Funds, including legal, audit, shareholder reporting, communications and trustee expenses. These expenses along with the related expense reimbursement, are included in the Statement of Operations.
The Fund, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with AIM, has agreed to pay AIM for certain administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund. Pursuant to such agreement, for the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM was paid $289,567.
The Fund, pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement, has agreed to pay AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AISI") a fee for providing transfer agency and shareholder services to the Fund and reimburse AISI for certain expenses incurred by AISI in the course of providing such services. AISI may make payments to intermediaries that provide omnibus account services, sub-accounting services and/or networking services. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid AISI $2,679,680.
The Trust has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") to serve as the distributor for the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares of the Fund. The Trust has adopted plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with respect to the Fund's Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares (collectively the "Plans"). The Fund, pursuant to the Plans, pays ADI compensation at the annual rate of 0.35% of the Fund's average daily net assets of Class A shares, 1.00% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares, 0.45% of the average daily net assets of Class K shares and 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Investor Class shares. Of these amounts, up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K or Investor Class shares may be paid to furnish continuing personal shareholder services to customers who purchase and own shares of such classes. Any amounts not paid as a service fee under the Plans would constitute an asset-based sales charge. NASD Rules also impose a cap on the total sales charges, including asset-based sales charges that may be paid by any class of shares of the Fund. Pursuant to the Plans, for the year ended March 31, 2005, the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares paid ADI $251,928, $221,073, $279,515, $501,318 and $1,660,322, respectively.
Front-end sales commissions and contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSC") (collectively the "sales charges") are not recorded as expenses of the Fund. Front-end sales commissions are deducted from proceeds from the sales of Fund shares prior to investment in Class A shares of the Fund. CDSC are deducted from redemption proceeds prior to remittance to the shareholder. During the year ended March 31, 2005, ADI advised the Fund that it retained $46,679 in front-end sales commissions from the sale of Class A shares and $49, $13,340, $4,960 and $0 from Class A, Class B, Class C and Class K shares, respectively, for CDSC imposed upon redemptions by shareholders.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are officers and directors of AIM, AISI and/or ADI.

NOTE 3--INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES

The Fund is permitted, pursuant to an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), to invest daily available cash balances and cash collateral from securities lending transactions in affiliated money market funds. The Fund and the money market funds below have the same investment advisor and therefore, are considered to be affiliated. The tables below show the transactions in and earnings from investments in an affiliated money market fund for the year ended March 31, 2005.

NOTE 4--SECURITY TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED FUNDS

The Fund is permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain other AIM Funds under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by the Fund from or to another fund or portfolio that is or could be considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common Trustees and/or common officers complies with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Further, as defined under the procedures, each transaction is effected at the current market price. Pursuant to these procedures, during the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund engaged in purchases and sales of securities of $0 and $2,196,180, respectively.

NOTE 5--EXPENSE OFFSET ARRANGEMENTS

The expense offset arrangements are comprised of (i) transfer agency credits which result from balances in Demand Deposit Accounts (DDA) used by the transfer agent for clearing shareholder transactions and (ii) custodian credits which result from periodic overnight cash balances at the custodian. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received credits from these arrangements which resulted in the reduction of the Fund's total expenses of $12,375.

NOTE 6--TRUSTEES' FEES

Trustees' fees represent remuneration paid to each Trustee of the Trust who is not an "interested person" of AIM. Trustees have the option to defer compensation payable by the Trust. Those Trustees who defer compensation have the option to select various AIM Funds in which their deferral accounts shall be deemed to be invested.
Current Trustees are eligible to participate in a retirement plan that provides for benefits to be paid upon retirement to Trustees over a period of time based on the number of years of service. The Fund may have certain former Trustees that also participate in a retirement plan and receive benefits under such plan.
Obligations under the deferred compensation and retirement plans represent unsecured claims against the general assets of the Fund.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid legal fees of $6,362 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel LLP as counsel to the Independent Trustees. A member of that firm is a Trustee of the Trust.

NOTE 7--BORROWINGS

Pursuant to an exemptive order from the SEC, the Fund may participate in an interfund lending facility that AIM has established for temporary borrowings by the AIM Funds. An interfund loan will be made under this facility only if the loan rate (an average of the rate available on bank loans and the rate available on investments in overnight repurchase agreements) is favorable to both the lending fund and the borrowing fund. A loan will be secured by collateral if the Fund's aggregate borrowings from all sources exceeds 10% of the Fund's total assets. To the extent that the loan is required to be secured by collateral, the collateral is marked to market daily to ensure that the market value is at least 102% of the outstanding principal value of the loan.
The Fund is a participant in an uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility with State Street Bank and Trust Company ("SSB"). The Fund may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $125,000,000, or (ii) the limits set by its prospectus for borrowings. The Fund and other funds advised by AIM which are parties to the credit facility can borrow on a first come, first served basis. Principal on each loan outstanding shall bear interest at the bid rate quoted by SSB at the time of the request for the loan.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund did not borrow or lend under the interfund lending facility or borrow under the uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility.
Additionally, the Fund is permitted to temporarily carry a negative or overdrawn balance in its account with SSB, the custodian bank. To compensate the custodian bank for such overdrafts, the overdrawn Fund may either (i) leave funds in the account so the custodian can be compensated by earning the additional interest; or (ii) compensate by paying the custodian bank. In either case, the custodian bank will be compensated at an amount equal to the Federal Funds rate plus 100 basis points.

NOTE 8--PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund may lend portfolio securities having a market value up to one-third of the Fund's total assets. Such loans are secured by collateral equal to no less than the market value of the loaned securities determined daily. Such collateral will be cash or debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies. Cash collateral received in connection with these loans is invested in short-term money market instruments or affiliated money market funds. It is the Fund's policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. The Fund could also experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the collateral available for return to the borrower due to a loss on the collateral invested.
At March 31, 2005, securities with an aggregate value of $26,380,814 were on loan to brokers. The loans were secured by cash collateral of $26,348,886 received by the Fund and subsequently invested in an affiliated money market fund and by non-cash collateral of $1,023,023 received by the Fund, consisting of U.S. Treasury Securities. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received dividends on cash collateral of $144,637 and non-cash collateral of $5,470 for securities lending transactions, which are net of rebates.

NOTE 9--DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND TAX COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 was as follows:

                                           2005       2004
--------------------------------------------------------------
Distributions paid from ordinary income $6,703,159          --
--------------------------------------------------------------

TAX COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS:

As of March 31, 2005, the components of net assets on a tax basis were as follows:

                                           2005
----------------------------------------------------
Undistributed ordinary income          $  5,909,167
----------------------------------------------------
Undistributed long-term gain              7,473,574
----------------------------------------------------
Unrealized appreciation -- investments  280,057,311
----------------------------------------------------
Temporary book/tax differences              (58,672)
----------------------------------------------------
Shares of beneficial interest           613,608,174
----------------------------------------------------
Total net assets                       $906,989,554
----------------------------------------------------

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is due to differences in the timing of recognition of gains and losses on investments for tax and book purposes. The Fund's unrealized appreciation (depreciation) difference is attributable primarily to losses on wash sales, the recognition of income on certain foreign passive investment companies, and partnership basis adjustments. The tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments amount includes appreciation on foreign currencies of $1,383.
The temporary book/tax differences are a result of timing differences between book and tax recognition of income and/or expenses. The Fund's temporary book/tax differences are the result of the trustee deferral of compensation and retirement plan expenses.
Capital loss carryforward is calculated and reported as of a specific date. Results of transactions and other activity after that date may affect the amount of capital loss carryforward actually available for the Fund to utilize. The ability to utilize capital loss carryforward in the future may be limited under the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations based on the results of future transactions.
The Fund utilized $42,488,737 of capital loss carryforward in the current period to offset net realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. The Fund has no capital loss carryforward as of March 31, 2005.

NOTE 10--INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term securities and money market funds) purchased and sold by the Fund during the year ended March 31, 2005 was $73,161,578 and $162,116,083, respectively.
At the request of the Trustees, AIM recovered third party research credits during the year ended March 31, 2005, in the amount of $11,008. These research credits were recorded as realized gains.

                UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) OF
                   INVESTMENT SECURITIES ON A TAX BASIS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aggregate unrealized appreciation of investment securities   $286,690,183
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aggregate unrealized (depreciation) of investment securities   (6,634,255)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities         $280,055,928
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cost of investments for tax purposes is $655,784,633.

NOTE 11--RECLASSIFICATION OF PERMANENT DIFFERENCES

Primarily as a result of differing book/tax treatment of foreign currency transactions, expenses related to the plan of reorganization, excise taxes, partnership investments, passive foreign investment companies and net operating losses, on March 31, 2005, undistributed net investment income was increased by $746,879, undistributed net realized gain (loss) decreased by $2,099,938 and shares of beneficial interest increased by $1,353,059. This reclassification had no effect on the net assets of the Fund.

FS-66


NOTE 12--SHARE INFORMATION

The Fund currently offers five different classes of shares: Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares, Class K shares and Investor Class shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. Class B shares and Class C shares are sold with CDSC. Class K shares and Investor Class shares are sold at net asset value. Under certain circumstances, Class A shares and Class K shares are subject to CDSC. Generally, Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after the end of the calendar month of purchase.

NOTE 14--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

SETTLED ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS RELATED TO MARKET TIMING

On October 8, 2004, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. ("IFG") (the former investment advisor to certain AIM Funds) and A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM") (the Fund's investment advisor) reached final settlements with certain regulators, including without limitation the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the New York Attorney General ("NYAG") and the Colorado Attorney General ("COAG"), to resolve civil enforcement actions and investigations related to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG. These regulators alleged, in substance, that IFG and AIM failed to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds that they advised and to the independent directors/trustees of such Funds that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds, thereby breaching their fiduciary duties to such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the regulators alleged that IFG and AIM breached various Federal and state securities, business and consumer protection laws. On the same date, A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") (the distributor of the retail AIM Funds) reached a final settlement with the SEC to resolve an investigation relating to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds. The SEC also alleged that ADI violated various Federal securities laws. The SEC also has settled related market timing enforcement actions brought against certain former officers and employees of IFG.
Under the terms of the settlements, IFG agreed to pay a total of $325 million, of which $110 million is civil penalties. Of this $325 million total payment, half has been paid and the remaining half will be paid on or before December 31, 2005. AIM and ADI agreed to pay a total of $50 million, of which $30 million is civil penalties, all of which has been paid. The entire $325 million IFG settlement fund will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds that IFG formerly advised that were harmed by market timing activity, and the entire $50 million settlement fund by AIM and ADI will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds advised by AIM that were harmed by market timing activity, all as to be determined by an independent distribution consultant. The IFG and AIM settlement funds may increase as a result of contributions from third parties who reach final settlements with the SEC or other regulators to resolve allegations of market timing and/or late trading. The settlement funds will be distributed in accordance with a methodology to be determined by the independent distribution consultant, in consultation with AIM and the independent trustees of the AIM Funds and acceptable to the staff of the SEC. Under the settlements with the NYAG and COAG, AIM has agreed to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004, not to increase certain management fees and to provide more information to investors regarding fees.
Under the terms of the settlements, AIM is undertaking certain governance and compliance reforms, including maintaining an internal controls committee and retaining an independent compliance consultant and a corporate ombudsman. Also, commencing in 2007 and at least once every other year thereafter, AIM will undergo a compliance review by an independent third party. In addition, under the terms of the settlements, AIM has undertaken to cause the AIM Funds to operate in accordance with certain governance policies and practices, including retaining a full-time independent senior officer whose duties include monitoring compliance and managing the process by which proposed management fees to be charged the AIM Funds are negotiated. Also, commencing in 2008 and not less than every fifth calendar year thereafter, the AIM Funds will hold shareholder meetings at which their Boards of Trustees will be elected.
At the request of the trustees of the AIM Funds, AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP"), the parent company of IFG and AIM, has agreed to reimburse expenses incurred by such Funds related to market timing matters.
The SEC has also settled market timing enforcement actions against Raymond R. Cunningham (the former president and chief executive officer of IFG and a former member of the board of directors of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG), Timothy J. Miller (the former chief investment officer and a former portfolio manager for IFG), Thomas A. Kolbe (the former national sales manager of IFG) and Michael D. Legoski (a former assistant vice president in IFG's sales department). As part of these settlements, the SEC ordered these individuals to pay restitution and civil penalties in various amounts and prohibited them from associating with, or serving as an officer or director of, an investment advisor, broker, dealer and/or investment company, as applicable, for certain periods of time.
The payments made in connection with the above-referenced settlements by IFG, AIM and ADI will total approximately $375 million (not including AIM's agreement to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004). The manner in which the settlement payments will be distributed is unknown at the present time and will be determined by an independent distribution consultant appointed under the settlement agreements. Therefore, management of AIM and the Fund are unable at the present time to estimate the impact, if any, that the distribution of the settlement payments may have on the Fund or whether such distribution will have an impact on the Fund's financial statements in the future.
At the present time, management of AIM and the Fund are unable to estimate the impact, if any, that the outcome of the Regulatory Inquiries and Pending Litigation described below may have on AIM, ADI or the Fund.

REGULATORY INQUIRIES AND PENDING LITIGATION

The mutual fund industry as a whole is currently subject to regulatory inquiries and litigation related to a wide range of issues. These issues include, among others, market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including but not limited to revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans, procedures for locating lost security holders and participation in class action settlements.
As described more fully below, IFG and AIM are the subject of a number of ongoing regulatory inquiries and civil lawsuits related to one or more of the issues currently being scrutinized by various Federal and state regulators, including but not limited to those issues described above. Additional regulatory actions and/or civil lawsuits related to the above or other issues may be filed against the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future. Additional regulatory inquiries related to the above or other issues also may be received by the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future.

NOTE 14--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Ongoing Regulatory Inquiries Concerning IFG and AIM

IFG, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more such Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, and investments in securities of other registered investment companies. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, Inc. ("NASD"), the Florida Department of Financial Services, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. IFG and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the United States Department of Labor ("DOL") and the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, some of which concern one or more of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG. IFG is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.
AIM, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans and procedures for locating lost securityholders. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, the Department of Banking for the State of Connecticut, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. AIM and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the SEC, the NASD, the DOL, the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, the United States Attorney's Office for the Central District of California, the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Securities Division, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds. AIM is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.

Pending Regulatory Civil Action Alleging Market Timing

On April 12, 2005, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia ("WVAG") filed civil proceedings against AIM, IFG and ADI, as well as numerous unrelated mutual fund complexes and financial institutions. None of the AIM Funds has been named as a defendant in these proceedings. The WVAG complaint, filed in the Circuit Court of Marshall County, West Virginia [Civil Action No. 05-C-81], alleges, in substance, that AIM, IFG and ADI engaged in unfair competition and/or unfair or deceptive trade practices by failing to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG, that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the WVAG alleges violations of W. Va. Code (S) 46A-1-101, et seq. (the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act). The WVAG complaint is seeking injunctive relief; civil monetary penalties; a writ of quo warranto against the defendants; pre-judgment and post-judgment interest; costs and expenses, including counsel fees; and other relief.
If AIM is unsuccessful in its defense of the WVAG proceedings, it could be barred from serving as an investment adviser for any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a "registered investment company"). Such results could affect the ability of AIM or any other investment advisor directly or indirectly owned by AMVESCAP, from serving as an investment advisor to any registered investment company, including your Fund. Your Fund has been informed by AIM that, if these results occur, AIM will seek exemptive relief from the SEC to permit it to continue to serve as your Fund's investment advisor. There is no assurance that such exemptive relief will be granted.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Market Timing

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG, AIM, AIM Management, AMVESCAP, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain unrelated third parties) making allegations that are similar in many respects to those in the settled regulatory actions brought by the SEC, the NYAG and the COAG concerning market timing activity in the AIM Funds. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal and state securities laws; (ii) violation of various provisions of ERISA; (iii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iv) breach of contract. These lawsuits were initiated in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory damages; restitution; injunctive relief; disgorgement of management fees; imposition of a constructive trust; removal of certain directors and/or employees; various corrective measures under ERISA; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements; interest; and attorneys' and experts' fees.
All lawsuits based on allegations of market timing, late trading, and related issues have been transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland (the "MDL Court") for consolidated or coordinated pre-trial proceedings. Pursuant to an Order of the MDL Court, plaintiffs consolidated their claims for pre-trial purposes into three amended complaints against various AIM- and IFG-related parties: (i) a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of shareholders of the AIM Funds; (ii) a Consolidated Amended Fund Derivative Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of the AIM Funds and fund registrants; and (iii) an Amended Class Action Complaint for Violations of the Employee Retirement Income Securities Act ("ERISA") purportedly brought on behalf of participants in AMVESCAP's 401(k) plan. The plaintiffs in two of the underlying lawsuits continue to seek remand of their lawsuit to state court.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Use of Fair Value Pricing

Multiple civil class action lawsuits have been filed against various parties
(including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG and/or AIM)
alleging that certain AIM Funds inadequately employed fair value pricing. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violations of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) common law breach of duty; and (iii) common law negligence and gross negligence. These lawsuits have been filed in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; interest; and attorneys' fees and costs. Based on a recent court decision, the state court action has been removed to Federal court.

NOTE 14--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Private Civil Actions Alleging Excessive Advisory and/or Distribution Fees

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("IINA"), ADI and/or INVESCO Distributors, Inc. ("INVESCO Distributors")) alleging that the defendants charged excessive advisory and/or distribution fees and failed to pass on to shareholders the perceived savings generated by economies of scale. Certain of these lawsuits also allege that the defendants adopted unlawful distribution plans. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iii) breach of contract. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans; interest; prospective relief in the form of reduced fees; and attorneys' and experts' fees. All of these lawsuits have been transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division and subsequently consolidated for pre-trial purposes into one lawsuit.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Charging of Distribution Fees on Limited Offering Funds or Share Classes

Multiple civil lawsuits, including shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by charging distribution fees while funds and/or specific share classes were closed generally to new investors and/or while other share classes of the same fund were not charged the same distribution fees. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; and (ii) breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; and attorneys' and experts' fees.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Mutual Fund Sales Practices and Directed-Brokerage Arrangements

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, AIM Management, IFG, AIM, AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AIS") and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants improperly used the assets of the AIM Funds to pay brokers to aggressively promote the sale of the AIM Funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans and recovery of all fees paid; an accounting of all fund-related fees, commissions and soft dollar payments; restitution of all unlawfully or discriminatorily obtained fees and charges; and attorneys' and experts' fees. These actions have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes.

Private Civil Action Alleging Failure to Ensure Participation in Class Action Settlements

A civil lawsuit, purporting to be a class action lawsuit, has been filed against AIM, IINA, A I M Capital Management, Inc. and the trustees of the AIM Funds alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the AIM Funds participated in class action settlements in which the AIM Funds were eligible to participate. This lawsuit alleges as theories of recovery: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws;
(ii) common law breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) common law negligence. This lawsuit has been filed in Federal court and seeks such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; forfeiture of all commissions and fees paid by the class of plaintiffs; and costs and attorneys' fees.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * As a result of the matters discussed above, investors in the AIM Funds might react by redeeming their investments. This might require the Funds to sell investments to provide for sufficient liquidity and could also have an adverse effect on the investment performance of the Funds.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Trustees
and Shareholders of AIM Technology Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the AIM Technology Fund, formerly known as INVESCO Technology Fund (one of the funds constituting AIM Sector Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at March 31, 2005, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at March 31, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2005

NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

AIM Technology Fund, formerly INVESCO Technology Fund, (the "Fund") is a series portfolio of AIM Sector Funds (the "Trust"). The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end series management investment company consisting of seven separate portfolios, each authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest. The Fund currently offers multiple classes of shares. Matters affecting each portfolio or class will be voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio or class. The assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the Fund.
The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital growth. Each company listed in the Schedule of Investments is organized in the United States of America unless otherwise noted.
Under the Trust's organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust's investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities, including restricted securities, are valued according to the following policy.
A security listed or traded on an exchange (except convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular day, the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but not securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market System) is valued on the basis of prices furnished by independent pricing services, which may be considered fair valued, or market makers. Each security reported on the NASDAQ National Market System is valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") as of the close of the customary trading session on the valuation date or absent a NOCP, at the closing bid price.
Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by an exchange on which they are principally traded. Listed options are valued at the mean between the last bid and the ask prices from the exchange on which they are principally traded. Options not listed on an exchange are valued by an independent source at the mean between the last bid and ask prices. For purposes of determining net asset value per share, futures and option contracts generally will be valued 15 minutes after the close of the customary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE").
Investments in open-end registered investment companies and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share. Investments in closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to specific securities, dividend rate, yield, quality, type of issue, coupon rate, maturity, individual trading characteristics and other market data. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity and commercial paper are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods are valued based upon quotes furnished by independent sources and are valued at the last bid price in the case of equity securities and in the case of debt obligations, the mean between the last bid and asked prices.
Foreign securities (including foreign exchange contracts) are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of the close of the NYSE. Generally, trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of the close of the respective markets. Events affecting the values of such foreign securities may occur between the times at which the particular foreign market closes and the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE which would not ordinarily be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value. If the event is likely to have affected the closing price of the security, the security will be valued at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Adjustments to closing prices to reflect fair value may also be based on a screening process of an independent pricing service to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. Foreign securities meeting the approved degree of certainty that the price is not reflective of current market value will be priced at the indication of fair value from the independent pricing service. Multiple factors may be considered by the independent pricing service in determining adjustments to reflect fair value and may include information relating to sector indices, ADRs and domestic and foreign index futures.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Trust's officers following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Issuer specific events, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and information providers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security's fair value. B. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

FS-83


Brokerage commissions and mark ups are considered transaction costs and are recorded as an increase to the cost basis of securities purchased and/or a reduction of proceeds on a sale of securities. Such transaction costs are included in the determination of realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investment securities reported in the Statement of Operations and the Statement of Changes in Net Assets and the realized and unrealized net gains (losses) on securities per share in the Financial Highlights. Transaction costs are included in the calculation of the Fund's net asset value and, accordingly, they reduce the Fund's total returns. These transaction costs are not considered operating expenses and are not reflected in net investment income reported in the Statement of Operations and Statement of Changes in Net Assets, or the net investment income per share and ratios of expenses and net investment income reported in the Financial Highlights, nor are they limited by any expense limitation arrangements between the Fund and the advisor.
The Fund allocates income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses to a class based on the relative net assets of each class. C. DISTRIBUTIONS -- Distributions from income and net realized capital gain, if any, are generally paid annually and recorded on ex-dividend date. The Fund may elect to use a portion of the proceeds from redemptions as distributions for federal income tax purposes.
D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gain) which is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is recorded in the financial statements. E. EXPENSES -- Fees provided for under the Rule 12b-1 plan of a particular class of the Fund are charged to the operations of such class. Transfer agency fees and expenses and other shareholder recordkeeping fees and expenses attributable to the Institutional Class are charged to such class. Transfer agency fees and expenses and other shareholder recordkeeping fees and expenses relating to all other classes are allocated among those classes based on relative net assets. All other expenses are allocated among the classes based on relative net assets.
F. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS -- Foreign currency is valued at the close of the NYSE based on quotations posted by banks and major currency dealers. Portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities (net of foreign taxes withheld on disposition) and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not separately account for the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments and the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. The combined results of changes in foreign exchange rates and the fluctuation of market prices on investments (net of estimated foreign tax withholding) are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments in the Statement of Operations. Reported net realized foreign currency gains or losses arise from, (i) sales of foreign currencies, (ii) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and (iii) the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign currency gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
G. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- A foreign currency contract is an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund may enter into a foreign currency contract to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a foreign currency contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency in order to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably.
H. COVERED CALL OPTIONS -- The Fund may write call options, on a covered basis; that is, the Fund will own the underlying security. When the Fund writes a covered call option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently "marked-to-market" to reflect the current market value of the option written. The current market value of a written option is the mean between the last bid and asked prices on that day. If a written call option expires on the stipulated expiration date, or if the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or a loss if the closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is extinguished. If a written option is exercised, the Fund realizes a gain or a loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds of the sale are increased by the premium originally received. A risk in writing a call option is that the Fund gives up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. I. PUT OPTIONS -- The Fund may purchase put options. By purchasing a put option, the Fund obtains the right (but not the obligation) to sell the option's underlying instrument at a fixed strike price. In return for this right, the Fund pays an option premium. The option's underlying instrument may be a security or a futures contract. Put options may be used by the Fund to hedge securities it owns by locking in a minimum price at which the Fund can sell. If security prices fall, the put option could be exercised to offset all or a portion of the Fund's resulting losses. At the same time, because the maximum the Fund has at risk is the cost of the option, purchasing put options does not eliminate the potential for the Fund to profit from an increase in the value of the securities hedged. A risk in buying an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. In addition, there can be no assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist for any option purchased or sold.
J. VENTURE CAPITAL INVESTMENTS -- The Fund has invested in non-publicly traded companies, some of which are in the startup or development stages. These investments are inherently risky, as the markets for the technologies or products these companies are developing are typically in the early stages and may never materialize. The Fund could lose its entire investment in these companies. These investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Investments in privately held venture capital securities are illiquid.

NOTE 2--ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER FEES PAID TO AFFILIATES

The Trust has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee based on the annual rate of the Fund's average daily net assets as follows:

AVERAGE NET ASSETS  RATE
-------------------------
First $350 million  0.75%
-------------------------
Next $350 million   0.65%
-------------------------
Next $1.3 billion   0.55%
-------------------------
Next $2 billion     0.45%
-------------------------
Next $2 billion     0.40%
-------------------------
Next $2 billion    0.375%
-------------------------
Over $8 billion     0.35%
-------------------------

Prior to September 30, 2004, AIM had entered into a sub-advisory agreement with INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("INVESCO") whereby AIM paid INVESCO 40% of the fee paid by the Fund to AIM. Effective September 30, 2004, the sub-advisory agreement between AIM and INVESCO was terminated.
AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A and Class B, Class C and Institutional Class shares to 1.50%, 2.15%, 2.15% and 1.15% of average daily net assets, respectively. Additionally, the advisor had agreed to further limit the total annual operating expenses of Class K and Investor Class shares to 1.95% and 1.77% of average daily net assets, respectively, through November 23, 2004. Effective April 1, 2005, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K, Investor Class and Institutional Class shares to 1.65%, 2.30%, 2.30%, 1.75%, 1.65% and 1.30% of average daily net assets, respectively. AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares to 2.00%, 2.65%, 2.65%, 2.10% and 1.90% of average daily net assets, respectively, through March 31, 2006. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the total annual fund operating expenses to exceed the limits stated above: (i) interest; (ii) taxes;
(iii) dividend expense on short sales; (iv) extraordinary items (these are expenses that are not anticipated to arise from the Fund's day-to-day operations), or items designated as such by the Fund's Board of Trustees; (v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees; and (vi) expenses that the Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Currently, in addition to the expense reimbursement arrangement with AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP") described more fully below, the only expense offset arrangements from which the Fund may benefit are in the form of credits that the Fund receives from banks where the Fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. Those credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by the Fund. AIM did not waive fees and/or reimburse expenses during the period under this expense limitation. Further, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund in the amount of 25% of the advisory fee AIM receives from the affiliated money market funds on investments by the Fund in such affiliated money market funds (excluding investments made in affiliated money market funds with cash collateral from securities loaned by the fund). AIM is also voluntarily waiving a portion of the advisory fee payable by the Fund equal to the difference between the income earned from investing in the affiliated money market fund and the hypothetical income earned from investing in an appropriate comparative benchmark. Voluntary fee waivers or reimbursements may be modified or discontinued at any time upon consultation with the Board of Trustees without further notice to investors. For the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM waived fees of $22,884. For the year ended March 31, 2005, at the request of the Trustees of the Trust, AMVESCAP agreed to reimburse $281,312 of expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with market timing matters in the AIM Funds, including legal, audit, shareholder reporting, communications and trustee expenses. These expenses along with the related expense reimbursement, are included in the Statement of Operations. The Fund, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with AIM, has agreed to pay AIM for certain administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund. Pursuant to such agreement, for the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM was paid $560,226. The Fund, pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement, has agreed to pay AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AISI") a fee for providing transfer agency and shareholder services to the Fund and reimburse AISI for certain expenses incurred by AISI in the course of providing such services. AISI may make payments to intermediaries that provide omnibus account services, sub-accounting services and/or networking services. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid AISI $10,163,342 for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class share classes and $131,472 for Institutional Class shares. The Trust has entered into master distribution agreements with A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") to serve as the distributor for the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K, Investor Class and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. The Trust has adopted plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with respect to the Fund's Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares (collectively the "Plans"). The Fund, pursuant to the Class A, Class B, Class C and Class K Plans, pays ADI compensation at the annual rate of 0.35% of the Fund's average daily net assets of Class A shares, 1.00% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares and 0.45% of the average daily net assets of Class K shares. The Fund, pursuant to the Investor Class Plan, pays ADI for its allocated share of expenses incurred pursuant to the Investor Class Plan for the period, up to a maximum annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Investor Class shares. Of these amounts, up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K or Investor Class shares may be paid to furnish continuing personal shareholder services to customers who purchase and own shares of such classes. Any amounts not paid as a service fee under the Plans would constitute an asset- based sales charge. NASD Rules also impose a cap on the total sales charges, including asset-based sales charges that may be paid by any class of shares of the Fund.

FS-85


Pursuant to the Plans, for the year ended March 31, 2005, the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Investor Class shares paid ADI $1,231,620, $1,038,119, $314,955, $71,142 and $2,747,822, respectively. Of these amounts, AIM reimbursed Plan fees of $573,334, $169,789, $51,300, $0 and $61,111, respectively.
Front-end sales commissions and contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSC") (collectively the "sales charges") are not recorded as expenses of the Fund. Front-end sales commissions are deducted from proceeds from the sales of Fund shares prior to investment in Class A shares of the Fund. CDSC are deducted from redemption proceeds prior to remittance to the shareholder. During the year ended March 31, 2005, ADI advised the Fund that it retained $48,237 in front-end sales commissions from the sale of Class A shares and $106, $40,365, $5,029 and $0 from Class A, Class B, Class C and Class K shares, respectively, for CDSC imposed upon redemptions by shareholders.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are officers and directors of AIM, AISI and/or ADI.

NOTE 3--INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES

The Fund is permitted, pursuant to an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), to invest daily available cash balances and cash collateral from securities lending transactions in affiliated money market funds. The Fund and the money market fund below have the same investment advisor and therefore, are considered to be affiliated. The tables below show the transactions in and earnings from investments in an affiliated money market fund for the year ended March 31, 2005.

INVESTMENTS IN OTHER AFFILIATES:

The Investment Company Act of 1940 defines affiliates as those companies in which a fund holds 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities. The Fund has not owned enough of the outstanding voting securities of the issuer to have control (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) of that issuer. The following is a summary of the transactions with affiliates for the year ended March 31, 2005.

NOTE 4--SECURITY TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED FUNDS

The Fund is permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain other AIM Funds under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by the Fund from or to another fund or portfolio that is or could be considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common Trustees and/or common officers complies with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Further, as defined under the procedures, each transaction is effected at the current market price. Pursuant to these procedures, during the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund engaged in purchases and sales of securities of $6,985,866 and $4,484,025, respectively.

FS-86


NOTE 5--EXPENSE OFFSET ARRANGEMENT

The expense offset arrangement is comprised of transfer agency credits which result from balances in Demand Deposit Accounts (DDA) used by the transfer agent for clearing shareholder transactions. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received credits from this arrangement which resulted in the reduction of the Fund's total expenses of $21,242.

NOTE 6--TRUSTEES' FEES

Trustees' fees represent remuneration paid to each Trustee of the Trust who is not an "interested person" of AIM. Trustees have the option to defer compensation payable by the Trust. Those Trustees who defer compensation have the option to select various AIM Funds in which their deferral accounts shall be deemed to be invested.
Current Trustees are eligible to participate in a retirement plan that provides for benefits to be paid upon retirement to Trustees over a period of time based on the number of years of service. The Fund may have certain former Trustees that also participate in a retirement plan and receive benefits under such plan.
Obligations under the deferred compensation and retirement plans represent unsecured claims against the general assets of the Fund.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid legal fees of $10,687 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel LLP as counsel to the Independent Trustees. A member of that firm is a Trustee of the Trust.

NOTE 7--BORROWINGS

Pursuant to an exemptive order from the SEC, the Fund may participate in an interfund lending facility that AIM has established for temporary borrowings by the AIM Funds. An interfund loan will be made under this facility only if the loan rate (an average of the rate available on bank loans and the rate available on investments in overnight repurchase agreements) is favorable to both the lending fund and the borrowing fund. A loan will be secured by collateral if the Fund's aggregate borrowings from all sources exceeds 10% of the Fund's total assets. To the extent that the loan is required to be secured by collateral, the collateral is marked to market daily to ensure that the market value is at least 102% of the outstanding principal value of the loan. During the year ended March 31, 2005, the average interfund borrowings for the number of days the borrowings were outstanding was $11,952,833 with a weighted average interest rate of 2.44% and interest expense of $4,778.
The Fund is a participant in an uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility with State Street Bank and Trust Company ("SSB"). The Fund may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $125,000,000, or (ii) the limits set by its prospectus for borrowings. The Fund and other funds advised by AIM which are parties to the credit facility can borrow on a first come, first served basis. Principal on each loan outstanding shall bear interest at the bid rate quoted by SSB at the time of the request for the loan. The Fund did not borrow under the facility during the year ended March 31, 2005.
Additionally, the Fund is permitted to temporarily carry a negative or overdrawn balance in its account with SSB, the custodian bank. To compensate the custodian bank for such overdrafts, the overdrawn Fund may either (i) leave funds in the account so the custodian can be compensated by earning the additional interest; or (ii) compensate by paying the custodian bank. In either case, the custodian bank will be compensated at an amount equal to the Federal Funds rate plus 100 basis points.

NOTE 8--PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund may lend portfolio securities having a market value up to one-third of the Fund's total assets. Such loans are secured by collateral equal to no less than the market value of the loaned securities determined daily. Such collateral will be cash or debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies. Cash collateral received in connection with these loans is invested in short-term money market instruments or affiliated money market funds. It is the Fund's policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. The Fund could also experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the collateral available for return to the borrower due to a loss on the collateral invested.
At March 31, 2005, securities with an aggregate value of $7,275,203 were on loan to brokers. The loans were secured by cash collateral of $7,397,327 received by the Fund and subsequently invested in an affiliated money market fund. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received dividends on cash collateral of $185,090 and non-cash collateral of $610 for securities lending transactions, which are net of rebates.

NOTE 10--DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND TAX COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:

There were no ordinary income or long-term capital gain distributions paid during the years ended March 31, 2005 and 2004.

TAX COMPONENTS OF NET ASSETS:

As of March 31, 2005, the components of net assets on a tax basis were as follows:

                                            2005
------------------------------------------------------
Unrealized appreciation -- investments $  261,420,529
------------------------------------------------------
Temporary book/tax differences               (310,067)
------------------------------------------------------
Capital loss carryforward                (784,144,822)
------------------------------------------------------
Shares of beneficial interest           1,858,492,051
------------------------------------------------------
Total net assets                       $1,335,457,691
------------------------------------------------------

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is due to differences in the timing of recognition of gains and losses on investments for tax and book purposes. The Fund's unrealized appreciation (depreciation) difference is attributable primarily to the deferral of losses on wash sales, the treatment of certain corporation actions, the treatment of partnerships and the deferral of losses on certain straddle transactions. The tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments amount includes appreciation on options written of $84,954.
The temporary book/tax differences are a result of timing differences between book and tax recognition of income and/or expenses. The Fund's temporary book/tax differences are the result of the trustee deferral of compensation and retirement plan expenses.
Capital loss carryforward is calculated and reported as of a specific date. Results of transactions and other activity after that date may affect the amount of capital loss carryforward actually available for the Fund to utilize. The ability to utilize capital loss carryforward in the future may be limited under the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations based on the results of future transactions. Under these limitation rules, the Fund is limited as of March 31, 2005 to utilizing $114,716,266 of capital loss carryforward in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006.

FS-88


The Fund utilized $35,492,825 of capital loss carryforward in the current period to offset net realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. The Fund has a capital loss carryforward as of March 31, 2005 which expires as follows:

                                CAPITAL LOSS
EXPIRATION                      CARRYFORWARD*
---------------------------------------------
March 31, 2010                   416,234,709
---------------------------------------------
March 31, 2011                   367,910,113
---------------------------------------------
Total capital loss carryforward $784,144,822
---------------------------------------------

* Capital loss carryforward as of the date listed above is reduced for limitations, if any, to the extent required by the Internal Revenue Code. To the extent that unrealized gains as of November 24, 2003, the date of the reorganization of AIM New Technology Fund, AIM Global Science & Technology Fund and INVESCO Telecommunications Fund into the Fund, are realized on securities held in each fund at such date, the capital loss carryforward may be further limited for up to five years from the date of the reorganization. On April 30, 2004, 51,524,128 Institutional Class shares valued at $1,223,182,804 were redeemed by an institutional investor and settled through a redemption-in-kind transaction, which resulted in a realized gain of $195,057,973 to the Fund for book purposes. From a federal income tax perspective, this redemption triggers limitations under the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations regarding the amount of the capital loss carryforward available for future utilization by the Fund. The actual amount of future capital loss carryforward reduction may fluctuate based on future transactions of the Fund.

NOTE 11--INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term securities and money market funds) purchased and sold by the Fund during the year ended March 31, 2005 was $1,554,304,057 and 3,325,133,432, respectively.
At the request of the Trustees, AIM recovered third party research credits during the year ended March 31, 2005, in the amount of $397,646. These research credits were recorded as realized gains.

                   INVESTMENT SECURITIES ON A TAX BASIS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aggregate unrealized appreciation of investment securities   $279,385,299

Aggregate unrealized (depreciation) of investment securities  (18,049,724)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities         $261,335,575
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cost of investments for tax purposes is $1,097,947,829.

NOTE 12--RECLASSIFICATION OF PERMANENT DIFFERENCES

Primarily as a result of differing book/tax treatment of a shareholder redemption-in-kind, limitations on capital loss carryforward, net operating losses and foreign currency transactions on March 31, 2005, undistributed net investment income (loss) was increased by $14,452,045, undistributed net realized gain (loss) increased by $3,558,681,541 and shares of beneficial interest decreased by $3,573,133,586. This reclassification had no effect on the net assets of the Fund and is excluded from the financial highlights.

FS-89

NOTE 14--OTHER MATTERS

The AIM and INVESCO Families of Funds received requests from the SEC for information concerning the Funds' use of exchange traded funds and other registered investment companies, as well as compliance with Section 12(d)(1) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. After reviewing responsive information, the SEC issued a letter dated September 23, 2004 asserting that the Fund entered into certain securities transactions during the period June 2, 2002 to May 31, 2004 that may not have been in compliance with the percentage ownership restriction of certain investment companies and in particular HOLDRs. To the extent it is determined that these securities transactions were not in compliance, appropriate amounts will be reimbursed. At this time, the effect to the Shareholder is not expected to be material.

SETTLED ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS RELATED TO MARKET TIMING

On October 8, 2004, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. ("IFG") (the former investment advisor to certain AIM Funds) and A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM") (the Fund's investment advisor) reached final settlements with certain regulators, including without limitation the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the New York Attorney General ("NYAG") and the Colorado Attorney General ("COAG"), to resolve civil enforcement actions and investigations related to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG. These regulators alleged, in substance, that IFG and AIM failed to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds that they advised and to the independent directors/trustees of such Funds that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds, thereby breaching their fiduciary duties to such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the regulators alleged that IFG and AIM breached various Federal and state securities, business and consumer protection laws. On the same date, A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") (the distributor of the retail AIM Funds) reached a final settlement with the SEC to resolve an investigation relating to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds. The SEC also alleged that ADI violated various Federal securities laws. The SEC also has settled related market timing enforcement actions brought against certain former officers and employees of IFG.
Under the terms of the settlements, IFG agreed to pay a total of $325 million, of which $110 million is civil penalties. Of this $325 million total payment, half has been paid and the remaining half will be paid on or before December 31, 2005. AIM and ADI agreed to pay a total of $50 million, of which $30 million is civil penalties, all of which has been paid. The entire $325 million IFG settlement fund will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds that IFG formerly advised that were harmed by market timing activity, and the entire $50 million settlement fund by AIM and ADI will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds advised by AIM that were harmed by market timing activity, all as to be determined by an independent distribution consultant. The IFG and AIM settlement funds may increase as a result of contributions from third parties who reach final settlements with the SEC or other regulators to resolve allegations of market timing and/or late trading. The settlement funds will be distributed in accordance with a methodology to be determined by the independent distribution consultant, in consultation with AIM and the independent trustees of the AIM Funds and acceptable to the staff of the SEC. Under the settlements with the NYAG and COAG, AIM has agreed to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004, not to increase certain management fees and to provide more information to investors regarding fees.
Under the terms of the settlements, AIM is undertaking certain governance and compliance reforms, including maintaining an internal controls committee and retaining an independent compliance consultant and a corporate ombudsman. Also, commencing in 2007 and at least once every other year thereafter, AIM will undergo a compliance review by an independent third party. In addition, under the terms of the settlements, AIM has undertaken to cause the AIM Funds to operate in accordance with certain governance policies and practices, including retaining a full-time independent senior officer whose duties include monitoring compliance and managing the process by which proposed management fees to be charged the AIM Funds are negotiated. Also, commencing in 2008 and not less than every fifth calendar year thereafter, the AIM Funds will hold shareholder meetings at which their Boards of Trustees will be elected.
At the request of the trustees of the AIM Funds, AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP"), the parent company of IFG and AIM, has agreed to reimburse expenses incurred by such Funds related to market timing matters.
The SEC has also settled market timing enforcement actions against Raymond R. Cunningham (the former president and chief executive officer of IFG and a former member of the board of directors of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG), Timothy J. Miller (the former chief investment officer and a former portfolio manager for IFG), Thomas A. Kolbe (the former national sales manager of IFG) and Michael D. Legoski (a former assistant vice president in IFG's sales department). As part of these settlements, the SEC ordered these individuals to pay restitution and civil penalties in various amounts and prohibited them from associating with, or serving as an officer or director of, an investment advisor, broker, dealer and/or investment company, as applicable, for certain periods of time.
The payments made in connection with the above-referenced settlements by IFG, AIM and ADI will total approximately $375 million (not including AIM's agreement to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004). The manner in which the settlement payments will be distributed is unknown at the present time and will be determined by an independent distribution consultant appointed under the settlement agreements. Therefore, management of AIM and the Fund are unable at the present time to estimate the impact, if any, that the distribution of the settlement payments may have on the Fund or whether such distribution will have an impact on the Fund's financial statements in the future.
At the present time, management of AIM and the Fund are unable to estimate the impact, if any, that the outcome of the Regulatory Inquiries and Pending Litigation described below may have on AIM, ADI or the Fund.

REGULATORY INQUIRIES AND PENDING LITIGATION

The mutual fund industry as a whole is currently subject to regulatory inquiries and litigation related to a wide range of issues. These issues include, among others, market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including but not limited to revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans, procedures for locating lost security holders and participation in class action settlements.
As described more fully below, IFG and AIM are the subject of a number of ongoing regulatory inquiries and civil lawsuits related to one or more of the issues currently being scrutinized by various Federal and state regulators, including but not limited to those issues described above. Additional regulatory actions and/or civil lawsuits related to the above or other issues may be filed against the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future. Additional regulatory inquiries related to the above or other issues also may be received by the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future.

NOTE 16--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Ongoing Regulatory Inquiries Concerning IFG and AIM

IFG, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more such Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, and investments in securities of other registered investment companies. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, Inc. ("NASD"), the Florida Department of Financial Services, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. IFG and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the United States Department of Labor ("DOL") and the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, some of which concern one or more of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG. IFG is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.
AIM, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans and procedures for locating lost securityholders. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, the Department of Banking for the State of Connecticut, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. AIM and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the SEC, the NASD, the DOL, the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, the United States Attorney's Office for the Central District of California, the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Securities Division, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds. AIM is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.
On April 12, 2005, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia ("WVAG") filed civil proceedings against AIM, IFG and ADI, as well as numerous unrelated mutual fund complexes and financial institutions. None of the AIM Funds has been named as a defendant in these proceedings. The WVAG complaint, filed in the Circuit Court of Marshall County, West Virginia [Civil Action No. 05-C-81], alleges, in substance, that AIM, IFG and ADI engaged in unfair competition and/or unfair or deceptive trade practices by failing to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG, that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the WVAG alleges violations of W. Va. Code (S) 46A-1-101, et seq. (the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act). The WVAG complaint is seeking injunctive relief; civil monetary penalties; a writ of quo warranto against the defendants; pre-judgment and post-judgment interest; costs and expenses, including counsel fees; and other relief.
If AIM is unsuccessful in its defense of the WVAG proceedings, it could be barred from serving as an investment adviser for any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a "registered investment company"). Such results could affect the ability of AIM or any other investment advisor directly or indirectly owned by AMVESCAP, from serving as an investment advisor to any registered investment company, including your Fund. Your Fund has been informed by AIM that, if these results occur, AIM will seek exemptive relief from the SEC to permit it to continue to serve as your Fund's investment advisor. There is no assurance that such exemptive relief will be granted.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Market Timing

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG, AIM, AIM Management, AMVESCAP, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain unrelated third parties) making allegations that are similar in many respects to those in the settled regulatory actions brought by the SEC, the NYAG and the COAG concerning market timing activity in the AIM Funds. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal and state securities laws; (ii) violation of various provisions of ERISA; (iii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iv) breach of contract. These lawsuits were initiated in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory damages; restitution; injunctive relief; disgorgement of management fees; imposition of a constructive trust; removal of certain directors and/or employees; various corrective measures under ERISA; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements; interest; and attorneys' and experts' fees.
All lawsuits based on allegations of market timing, late trading, and related issues have been transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland (the "MDL Court") for consolidated or coordinated pre-trial proceedings. Pursuant to an Order of the MDL Court, plaintiffs consolidated their claims for pre-trial purposes into three amended complaints against various AIM- and IFG-related parties: (i) a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of shareholders of the AIM Funds; (ii) a Consolidated Amended Fund Derivative Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of the AIM Funds and fund registrants; and (iii) an Amended Class Action Complaint for Violations of the Employee Retirement Income Securities Act ("ERISA") purportedly brought on behalf of participants in AMVESCAP's 401(k) plan. The plaintiffs in two of the underlying lawsuits continue to seek remand of their lawsuit to state court.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Use of Fair Value Pricing

Multiple civil class action lawsuits have been filed against various parties
(including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG and/or AIM)
alleging that certain AIM Funds inadequately employed fair value pricing. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violations of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) common law breach of duty; and (iii) common law negligence and gross negligence. These lawsuits have been filed in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; interest; and attorneys' fees and costs. Based on a recent court decision, the state court action has been removed to Federal court.

NOTE 16--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Private Civil Actions Alleging Excessive Advisory and/or Distribution Fees

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("IINA"), ADI and/or INVESCO Distributors, Inc. ("INVESCO Distributors")) alleging that the defendants charged excessive advisory and/or distribution fees and failed to pass on to shareholders the perceived savings generated by economies of scale. Certain of these lawsuits also allege that the defendants adopted unlawful distribution plans. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iii) breach of contract. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans; interest; prospective relief in the form of reduced fees; and attorneys' and experts' fees. All of these lawsuits have been transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division and subsequently consolidated for pre-trial purposes into one lawsuit.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Charging of Distribution Fees on Limited Offering Funds or Share Classes

Multiple civil lawsuits, including shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by charging distribution fees while funds and/or specific share classes were closed generally to new investors and/or while other share classes of the same fund were not charged the same distribution fees. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; and (ii) breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; and attorneys' and experts' fees.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Mutual Fund Sales Practices and Directed-Brokerage Arrangements

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, AIM Management, IFG, AIM, AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AIS") and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants improperly used the assets of the AIM Funds to pay brokers to aggressively promote the sale of the AIM Funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans and recovery of all fees paid; an accounting of all fund-related fees, commissions and soft dollar payments; restitution of all unlawfully or discriminatorily obtained fees and charges; and attorneys' and experts' fees. These actions have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes.

Private Civil Action Alleging Failure to Ensure Participation in Class Action Settlements

A civil lawsuit, purporting to be a class action lawsuit, has been filed against AIM, IINA, A I M Capital Management, Inc. and the trustees of the AIM Funds alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the AIM Funds participated in class action settlements in which the AIM Funds were eligible to participate. This lawsuit alleges as theories of recovery: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws;
(ii) common law breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) common law negligence. This lawsuit has been filed in Federal court and seeks such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; forfeiture of all commissions and fees paid by the class of plaintiffs; and costs and attorneys' fees.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * As a result of the matters discussed above, investors in the AIM Funds might react by redeeming their investments. This might require the Funds to sell investments to provide for sufficient liquidity and could also have an adverse effect on the investment performance of the Funds.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Trustees
and Shareholders of AIM Utilities Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the AIM Utilities Fund, formerly known as INVESCO Utilities Fund (one of the funds constituting AIM Sector Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at March 31, 2005, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at March 31, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2005

NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

AIM Utilities Fund, formerly INVESCO Utilities Fund, (the "Fund") is a series portfolio of AIM Sector Funds (the "Trust"). The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end series management investment company consisting of seven separate portfolios, each authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest. The Fund currently offers multiple classes of shares. Matters affecting each portfolio or class will be voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio or class. The assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the Fund.
The Fund's investment objective is to achieve capital growth and current income. Each company listed in the Schedule of Investments is organized in the United States of America unless otherwise noted.
Under the Trust's organizational documents, each Trustee, officer, employee or other agent of the Trust (including the Trust's investment manager) is indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities, including restricted securities, are valued according to the following policy.
A security listed or traded on an exchange (except convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular day, the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but not securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market System) is valued on the basis of prices furnished by independent pricing services, which may be considered fair valued, or market makers. Each security reported on the NASDAQ National Market System is valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") as of the close of the customary trading session on the valuation date or absent a NOCP, at the closing bid price.
Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by an exchange on which they are principally traded. Listed options are valued at the mean between the last bid and the ask prices from the exchange on which they are principally traded. Options not listed on an exchange are valued by an independent source at the mean between the last bid and ask prices. For purposes of determining net asset value per share, futures and option contracts generally will be valued 15 minutes after the close of the customary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE").
Investments in open-end registered investment companies and closed-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day net asset value per share. Investments in closed-end registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price as of the close of the customary trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to specific securities, dividend rate, yield, quality, type of issue, coupon rate, maturity, individual trading characteristics and other market data. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity and commercial paper are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods are valued based upon quotes furnished by independent sources and are valued at the last bid price in the case of equity securities and in the case of debt obligations, the mean between the last bid and asked prices.
Foreign securities (including foreign exchange contracts) are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of the close of the NYSE. Generally, trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of the close of the respective markets. Events affecting the values of such foreign securities may occur between the times at which the particular foreign market closes and the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE which would not ordinarily be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value. If the event is likely to have affected the closing price of the security, the security will be valued at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Adjustments to closing prices to reflect fair value may also be based on a screening process of an independent pricing service to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. Foreign securities meeting the approved degree of certainty that the price is not reflective of current market value will be priced at the indication of fair value from the independent pricing service. Multiple factors may be considered by the independent pricing service in determining adjustments to reflect fair value and may include information relating to sector indices, ADRs and domestic and foreign index futures.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Trust's officers following procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Issuer specific events, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and information providers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security's fair value. B. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

FS-103


Brokerage commissions and mark ups are considered transaction costs and are recorded as an increase to the cost basis of securities purchased and/or a reduction of proceeds on a sale of securities. Such transaction costs are included in the determination of realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investment securities reported in the Statement of Operations and the Statement of Changes in Net Assets and the realized and unrealized net gains (losses) on securities per share in the Financial Highlights. Transaction costs are included in the calculation of the Fund's net asset value and, accordingly, they reduce the Fund's total returns. These transaction costs are not considered operating expenses and are not reflected in net investment income reported in the Statement of Operations and Statement of Changes in Net Assets, or the net investment income per share and ratios of expenses and net investment income reported in the Financial Highlights, nor are they limited by any expense limitation arrangements between the Fund and the advisor.
The Fund allocates income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses to a class based on the relative net assets of each class. C. DISTRIBUTIONS -- Distributions from income are declared and paid quarterly and are recorded on ex-dividend date. Distributions from net realized capital gain, if any, are generally paid annually and recorded on ex-dividend date. The Fund may elect to use a portion of the proceeds from redemptions as distributions for federal income tax purposes.
D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gain) which is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is recorded in the financial statements. E. EXPENSES -- Fees provided for under the Rule 12b-1 plan of a particular class of the Fund and which are directly attributable to that class are charged to the operations of such class. All other expenses are allocated among the classes based on relative net assets.
F. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS -- Foreign currency is valued at the close of the NYSE based on quotations posted by banks and major currency dealers. Portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities (net of foreign taxes withheld on disposition) and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not separately account for the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments and the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. The combined results of changes in foreign exchange rates and the fluctuation of market prices on investments (net of estimated foreign tax withholding) are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments in the Statement of Operations. Reported net realized foreign currency gains or losses arise from, (i) sales of foreign currencies, (ii) currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and (iii) the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign currency gains and losses arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
G. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- A foreign currency contract is an obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund may enter into a foreign currency contract to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a foreign currency contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency in order to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably.

NOTE 2--ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER FEES PAID TO AFFILIATES

The Trust has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee based on the annual rate of the Fund's average daily net assets as follows:

AVERAGE NET ASSETS                                                         RATE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next $2 billion                                                            0.40%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next $2 billion                                                           0.375%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Over $8 billion                                                            0.35%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prior to September 30, 2004, AIM had entered into a sub-advisory agreement with INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("INVESCO") whereby AIM paid INVESCO 40% of the fee paid by the Fund to AIM. Effective September 30, 2004, the sub-advisory agreement between AIM and INVESCO was terminated.
AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares to 1.40%, 2.05%, 2.05% and 1.30% of average daily net assets, respectively. In addition, effective April 1, 2005, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A to 1.30% average daily net assets. AIM has contractually agreed to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items discussed below) of Class A, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares to 1.90%, 2.65%, 2.65% and 1.90% of average daily net assets, respectively, through March 31, 2006. In determining the advisor's obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account, and could cause the total annual fund operating expenses to exceed the limits stated above:

FS-104


(i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expense on short sales; (iv) extraordinary items (these are expenses that are not anticipated to arise from the Fund's day-to-day operations), or items designated as such by the Fund's Board of Trustees; (v) expenses related to a merger or reorganization, as approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees; and (vi) expenses that the Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset arrangement. Currently, in addition to the expense reimbursement arrangement with AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP") described more fully below, the only expense offset arrangements from which the Fund may benefit are in the form of credits that the Fund receives from banks where the Fund or its transfer agent has deposit accounts in which it holds uninvested cash. Those credits are used to pay certain expenses incurred by the Fund. Further, AIM has voluntarily agreed to waive advisory fees of the Fund in the amount of 25% of the advisory fee AIM receives from the affiliated money market funds on investments by the Fund in such affiliated money market funds (excluding investments made in affiliated money market funds with cash collateral from securities loaned by the fund). AIM is also voluntarily waiving a portion of the advisory fee payable by the Fund equal to the difference between the income earned from investing in the affiliated money market fund and the hypothetical income earned from investing in an appropriate comparative benchmark. Voluntary fee waivers or reimbursements may be modified or discontinued at any time upon consultation with the Board of Trustees without further notice to investors. For the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM waived fees of $88,199. For the year ended March 31, 2005, at the request of the Trustees of the Trust, AMVESCAP agreed to reimburse $30,770 of expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with market timing matters in the AIM Funds, including legal, audit, shareholder reporting, communications and trustee expenses. These expenses along with the related expense reimbursement, are included in the Statement of Operations. The Fund, pursuant to a master administrative services agreement with AIM, has agreed to pay AIM for certain administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund. Pursuant to such agreement, for the year ended March 31, 2005, AIM was paid $85,884. The Fund, pursuant to a transfer agency and service agreement, has agreed to pay AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AISI") a fee for providing transfer agency and shareholder services to the Fund and reimburse AISI for certain expenses incurred by AISI in the course of providing such services. AISI may make payments to intermediaries that provide omnibus account services, sub-accounting services and/or networking services. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid AISI $794,855. The Trust has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") to serve as the distributor for the Class A, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares of the Fund. The Trust has adopted plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act with respect to the Fund's Class A, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares (collectively the "Plans"). The Fund, pursuant to the Plans, pays ADI compensation at the annual rate of 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets of Class A shares, 1.00% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares and 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Investor Class shares. Of these amounts, up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Class A, Class B, Class C or Investor Class shares may be paid to furnish continuing personal shareholder services to customers who purchase and own shares of such classes. Any amounts not paid as a service fee under the Plans would constitute an asset-based sales charge. NASD Rules also impose a cap on the total sales charges, including asset-based sales charges that may be paid by any class of shares of the Fund. Pursuant to the Plans, for the year ended March 31, 2005, the Class A, Class B, Class C and Investor Class shares paid ADI $263,126, $329,726, $62,893 and $180,105, respectively. Of these amounts, AIM reimbursed Plan fees of $0, $32,973, $6,289 and $72,042, respectively. Front-end sales commissions and contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSC") (collectively the "sales charges") are not recorded as expenses of the Fund. Front-end sales commissions are deducted from proceeds from the sales of Fund shares prior to investment in Class A shares of the Fund. CDSC are deducted from redemption proceeds prior to remittance to the shareholder. During the year ended March 31, 2005, ADI advised the Fund that it retained $18,371 in front-end sales commissions from the sale of Class A shares and $35, $14,053 and $752 from Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for CDSC imposed upon redemptions by shareholders. Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are officers and directors of AIM, AISI, and/or ADI.

NOTE 4--EXPENSE OFFSET ARRANGEMENTS

The expense offset arrangements are comprised of (i) transfer agency credits which result from balances in Demand Deposit Accounts (DDA) used by the transfer agent for clearing shareholder transactions and (ii) custodian credits which result from periodic overnight cash balances at the custodian. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received credits from these arrangements which resulted in the reduction of the Fund's total expenses of $3,937.

NOTE 5--TRUSTEES' FEES

Trustees' fees represent remuneration paid to each Trustee of the Trust who is not an "interested person" of AIM. Trustees have the option to defer compensation payable by the Trust. Those Trustees who defer compensation have the option to select various AIM Funds in which their deferral accounts shall be deemed to be invested.
Current Trustees are eligible to participate in a retirement plan that provides for benefits to be paid upon retirement to Trustees over a period of time based on the number of years of service. The Fund may have certain former Trustees that also participate in a retirement plan and receive benefits under such plan.
Obligations under the deferred compensation and retirement plans represent unsecured claims against the general assets of the Fund.
During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund paid legal fees of $4,201 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel LLP as counsel to the Independent Trustees. A member of that firm is a Trustee of the Trust.

NOTE 6--BORROWINGS

Pursuant to an exemptive order from the SEC, the Fund may participate in an interfund lending facility that AIM has established for temporary borrowings by the AIM Funds. An interfund loan will be made under this facility only if the loan rate (an average of the rate available on bank loans and the rate available on investments in overnight repurchase agreements) is favorable to both the lending fund and the borrowing fund. A loan will be secured by collateral if the Fund's aggregate borrowings from all sources exceeds 10% of the Fund's total assets. To the extent that the loan is required to be secured by collateral, the collateral is marked to market daily to ensure that the market value is at least 102% of the outstanding principal value of the loan. During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund had average interfund borrowings for the number of days the borrowings were outstanding in the amount of $3,144,000 with a weighted average interest rate of 2.20% and interest expense of $189.
The Fund is a participant in an uncommitted unsecured revolving credit facility with State Street Bank and Trust Company ("SSB"). The Fund may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $125,000,000, or (ii) the limits set by its prospectus for borrowings. The Fund and other funds advised by AIM which are parties to the credit facility can borrow on a first come, first served basis. Principal on each loan outstanding shall bear interest at the bid rate quoted by SSB at the time of the request for the loan. The Fund did not borrow under the facility during the year ended March 31, 2005.
Additionally, the Fund is permitted to temporarily carry a negative or overdrawn balance in its account with SSB, the custodian bank. To compensate the custodian bank for such overdrafts, the overdrawn Fund may either (i) leave funds in the account so the custodian can be compensated by earning the additional interest; or (ii) compensate by paying the custodian bank. In either case, the custodian bank will be compensated at an amount equal to the Federal Funds rate plus 100 basis points.

NOTE 7--PORTFOLIO SECURITIES LOANED

The Fund may lend portfolio securities having a market value up to one-third of the Fund's total assets. Such loans are secured by collateral equal to no less than the market value of the loaned securities determined daily. Such collateral will be cash or debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies. Cash collateral received in connection with these loans is invested in short-term money market instruments or affiliated money market funds. It is the Fund's policy to obtain additional collateral from or return excess collateral to the borrower by the end of the next business day, following the valuation date of the securities loaned. Therefore, the value of the collateral held may be temporarily less than the value of the securities on loan. Lending securities entails a risk of loss to the Fund if and to the extent that the market value of the securities loaned were to increase and the borrower did not increase the collateral accordingly, and the borrower fails to return the securities. The Fund could also experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Fund bears the risk of any deficiency in the amount of the collateral available for return to the borrower due to a loss on the collateral invested.
At March 31, 2005, securities with an aggregate value of $11,866,206 were on loan to brokers. The loans were secured by cash collateral of $11,544,702 received by the Fund and subsequently invested in an affiliated money market fund and a receivable of $749,230 for cash collateral held by the agent. For the year ended March 31, 2005, the Fund received dividends on cash collateral of $77,465 for securities lending transactions, which are net of rebates.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is due to differences in the timing of recognition of gains and losses on investments for tax and book purposes. The Fund's unrealized appreciation (depreciation) difference is attributable primarily to the deferral of losses on wash sales, corporate actions and defaulted bonds. The tax-basis unrealized appreciation on investments amount includes appreciation on foreign currencies of $5,275.
The temporary book/tax differences are a result of timing differences between book and tax recognition of income and/or expenses. The Fund's temporary book/tax differences are the result of the trustee deferral of compensation and retirement plan expenses.
Capital loss carryforward is calculated and reported as of a specific date. Results of transactions and other activity after that date may affect the amount of capital loss carryforward actually available for the Fund to utilize. The ability to utilize capital loss carryforward in the future may be limited under the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations based on the results of future transactions. Under these limitation rules, the Fund is limited as of March 31, 2005 to utilizing $74,376,234 of capital loss carryforward in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006.
The Fund utilized $8,612,509 of capital loss carryforward in the current period to offset net realized capital gain for federal income tax purposes. The Fund has a capital loss carryforward as of March 31, 2005 which expires as follows:

NOTE 13--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Terms used in the Legal Proceedings Note are defined terms solely for the purpose of this note.

SETTLED ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS AND INVESTIGATIONS RELATED TO MARKET TIMING

On October 8, 2004, INVESCO Funds Group, Inc. ("IFG") (the former investment advisor to certain AIM Funds) and A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM") (the Fund's investment advisor) reached final settlements with certain regulators, including without limitation the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the New York Attorney General ("NYAG") and the Colorado Attorney General ("COAG"), to resolve civil enforcement actions and investigations related to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG. These regulators alleged, in substance, that IFG and AIM failed to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds that they advised and to the independent directors/trustees of such Funds that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds, thereby breaching their fiduciary duties to such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the regulators alleged that IFG and AIM breached various Federal and state securities, business and consumer protection laws. On the same date, A I M Distributors, Inc. ("ADI") (the distributor of the retail AIM Funds) reached a final settlement with the SEC to resolve an investigation relating to market timing activity and related issues in the AIM Funds. The SEC also alleged that ADI violated various Federal securities laws. The SEC also has settled related market timing enforcement actions brought against certain former officers and employees of IFG.
Under the terms of the settlements, IFG agreed to pay a total of $325 million, of which $110 million is civil penalties. Of this $325 million total payment, half has been paid and the remaining half will be paid on or before December 31, 2005. AIM and ADI agreed to pay a total of $50 million, of which $30 million is civil penalties, all of which has been paid. The entire $325 million IFG settlement fund will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds that IFG formerly advised that were harmed by market timing activity, and the entire $50 million settlement fund by AIM and ADI will be made available for distribution to the shareholders of those AIM Funds advised by AIM that were harmed by market timing activity, all as to be determined by an independent distribution consultant. The IFG and AIM settlement funds may increase as a result of contributions from third parties who reach final settlements with the SEC or other regulators to resolve allegations of market timing and/or late trading. The settlement funds will be distributed in accordance with a methodology to be determined by the independent distribution consultant, in consultation with AIM and the independent trustees of the AIM Funds and acceptable to the staff of the SEC. Under the settlements with the NYAG and COAG, AIM has agreed to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004, not to increase certain management fees and to provide more information to investors regarding fees.
Under the terms of the settlements, AIM is undertaking certain governance and compliance reforms, including maintaining an internal controls committee and retaining an independent compliance consultant and a corporate ombudsman. Also, commencing in 2007 and at least once every other year thereafter, AIM will undergo a compliance review by an independent third party. In addition, under the terms of the settlements, AIM has undertaken to cause the AIM Funds to operate in accordance with certain governance policies and practices, including retaining a full-time independent senior officer whose duties include monitoring compliance and managing the process by which proposed management fees to be charged the AIM Funds are negotiated. Also, commencing in 2008 and not less than every fifth calendar year thereafter, the AIM Funds will hold shareholder meetings at which their Boards of Trustees will be elected.
At the request of the trustees of the AIM Funds, AMVESCAP PLC ("AMVESCAP"), the parent company of IFG and AIM, has agreed to reimburse expenses incurred by such Funds related to market timing matters.
The SEC has also settled market timing enforcement actions against Raymond R. Cunningham (the former president and chief executive officer of IFG and a former member of the board of directors of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG), Timothy J. Miller (the former chief investment officer and a former portfolio manager for IFG), Thomas A. Kolbe (the former national sales manager of IFG) and Michael D. Legoski (a former assistant vice president in IFG's sales department). As part of these settlements, the SEC ordered these individuals to pay restitution and civil penalties in various amounts and prohibited them from associating with, or serving as an officer or director of, an investment advisor, broker, dealer and/or investment company, as applicable, for certain periods of time.
The payments made in connection with the above-referenced settlements by IFG, AIM and ADI will total approximately $375 million (not including AIM's agreement to reduce management fees on certain equity and balanced AIM Funds by $15 million per year for the next five years, based upon effective fee rates and assets under management as of July 1, 2004). The manner in which the settlement payments will be distributed is unknown at the present time and will be determined by an independent distribution consultant appointed under the settlement agreements. Therefore, management of AIM and the Fund are unable at the present time to estimate the impact, if any, that the distribution of the settlement payments may have on the Fund or whether such distribution will have an impact on the Fund's financial statements in the future.
At the present time, management of AIM and the Fund are unable to estimate the impact, if any, that the outcome of the Regulatory Inquiries and Pending Litigation described below may have on AIM, ADI or the Fund.

REGULATORY INQUIRIES AND PENDING LITIGATION

The mutual fund industry as a whole is currently subject to regulatory inquiries and litigation related to a wide range of issues. These issues include, among others, market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including but not limited to revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans, procedures for locating lost security holders and participation in class action settlements.
As described more fully below, IFG and AIM are the subject of a number of ongoing regulatory inquiries and civil lawsuits related to one or more of the issues currently being scrutinized by various Federal and state regulators, including but not limited to those issues described above. Additional regulatory actions and/or civil lawsuits related to the above or other issues may be filed against the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future. Additional regulatory inquiries related to the above or other issues also may be received by the AIM Funds, IFG, AIM and/or related entities and individuals in the future.

NOTE 13--LEGAL PROCEEDINGS-(CONTINUED)

Ongoing Regulatory Inquiries Concerning IFG and AIM

IFG, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more such Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, and investments in securities of other registered investment companies. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, Inc. ("NASD"), the Florida Department of Financial Services, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. IFG and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the United States Department of Labor ("DOL") and the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, some of which concern one or more of the AIM Funds formerly advised by IFG. IFG is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.
AIM, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain of the AIM Funds have received regulatory inquiries in the form of subpoenas or other oral or written requests for information and/or documents related to one or more of the following issues, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds: market timing activity, late trading, fair value pricing, excessive or improper advisory and/or distribution fees, mutual fund sales practices, including revenue sharing and directed-brokerage arrangements, investments in securities of other registered investment companies, contractual plans, issues related to Section 529 college savings plans and procedures for locating lost securityholders. These regulators include the SEC, the NASD, the Department of Banking for the State of Connecticut, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Securities Commission and the Bureau of Securities of the State of New Jersey. AIM and certain of these other parties also have received more limited inquiries from the SEC, the NASD, the DOL, the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York, the United States Attorney's Office for the Central District of California, the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Securities Division, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, some of which concern one or more AIM Funds. AIM is providing full cooperation with respect to these inquiries.

Pending Regulatory Civil Action Alleging Market Timing

On April 12, 2005, the Attorney General of the State of West Virginia ("WVAG") filed civil proceedings against AIM, IFG and ADI, as well as numerous unrelated mutual fund complexes and financial institutions. None of the AIM Funds has been named as a defendant in these proceedings. The WVAG complaint, filed in the Circuit Court of Marshall County, West Virginia [Civil Action No. 05-C-81], alleges, in substance, that AIM, IFG and ADI engaged in unfair competition and/or unfair or deceptive trade practices by failing to disclose in the prospectuses for the AIM Funds, including those formerly advised by IFG, that they had entered into certain arrangements permitting market timing of such Funds. As a result of the foregoing, the WVAG alleges violations of W. Va. Code (S) 46A-1-101, et seq. (the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act). The WVAG complaint is seeking injunctive relief; civil monetary penalties; a writ of quo warranto against the defendants; pre-judgment and post-judgment interest; costs and expenses, including counsel fees; and other relief.
If AIM is unsuccessful in its defense of the WVAG proceedings, it could be barred from serving as an investment adviser for any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (a "registered investment company"). Such results could affect the ability of AIM or any other investment advisor directly or indirectly owned by AMVESCAP, from serving as an investment advisor to any registered investment company, including your Fund. Your Fund has been informed by AIM that, if these results occur, AIM will seek exemptive relief from the SEC to permit it to continue to serve as your Fund's investment advisor. There is no assurance that such exemptive relief will be granted.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Market Timing

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG, AIM, AIM Management, AMVESCAP, certain related entities, certain of their current and former officers and/or certain unrelated third parties) making allegations that are similar in many respects to those in the settled regulatory actions brought by the SEC, the NYAG and the COAG concerning market timing activity in the AIM Funds. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal and state securities laws; (ii) violation of various provisions of ERISA; (iii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iv) breach of contract. These lawsuits were initiated in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory damages; restitution; injunctive relief; disgorgement of management fees; imposition of a constructive trust; removal of certain directors and/or employees; various corrective measures under ERISA; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements; interest; and attorneys' and experts' fees.
All lawsuits based on allegations of market timing, late trading, and related issues have been transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Maryland (the "MDL Court") for consolidated or coordinated pre-trial proceedings. Pursuant to an Order of the MDL Court, plaintiffs consolidated their claims for pre-trial purposes into three amended complaints against various AIM- and IFG-related parties: (i) a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of shareholders of the AIM Funds; (ii) a Consolidated Amended Fund Derivative Complaint purportedly brought on behalf of the AIM Funds and fund registrants; and (iii) an Amended Class Action Complaint for Violations of the Employee Retirement Income Securities Act ("ERISA") purportedly brought on behalf of participants in AMVESCAP's 401(k) plan. The plaintiffs in two of the underlying lawsuits continue to seek remand of their lawsuit to state court.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Use of Fair Value Pricing

Multiple civil class action lawsuits have been filed against various parties
(including, depending on the lawsuit, certain AIM Funds, IFG and/or AIM)
alleging that certain AIM Funds inadequately employed fair value pricing. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violations of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) common law breach of duty; and (iii) common law negligence and gross negligence. These lawsuits have been filed in both Federal and state courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; interest; and attorneys' fees and costs. Based on a recent court decision, the state court action has been removed to Federal court.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Excessive Advisory and/or Distribution Fees

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, INVESCO Institutional (N.A.), Inc. ("IINA"), ADI and/or INVESCO Distributors, Inc. ("INVESCO Distributors")) alleging that the defendants charged excessive advisory and/or distribution fees and failed to pass on to shareholders the perceived savings generated by economies of scale. Certain of these lawsuits also allege that the defendants adopted unlawful distribution plans. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and/or (iii) breach of contract. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans; interest; prospective relief in the form of reduced fees; and attorneys' and experts' fees. All of these lawsuits have been transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division and subsequently consolidated for pre-trial purposes into one lawsuit.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Charging of Distribution Fees on Limited Offering Funds or Share Classes

Multiple civil lawsuits, including shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, IFG, AIM, ADI and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by charging distribution fees while funds and/or specific share classes were closed generally to new investors and/or while other share classes of the same fund were not charged the same distribution fees. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; and (ii) breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as damages; injunctive relief; and attorneys' and experts' fees.

Private Civil Actions Alleging Improper Mutual Fund Sales Practices and Directed-Brokerage Arrangements

Multiple civil lawsuits, including purported class action and shareholder derivative suits, have been filed against various parties (including, depending on the lawsuit, AIM Management, IFG, AIM, AIM Investment Services, Inc. ("AIS") and/or certain of the trustees of the AIM Funds) alleging that the defendants improperly used the assets of the AIM Funds to pay brokers to aggressively promote the sale of the AIM Funds over other mutual funds and that the defendants concealed such payments from investors by disguising them as brokerage commissions. These lawsuits allege a variety of theories of recovery, including but not limited to: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws; (ii) breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty. These lawsuits have been filed in Federal courts and seek such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; rescission of certain Funds' advisory agreements and distribution plans and recovery of all fees paid; an accounting of all fund-related fees, commissions and soft dollar payments; restitution of all unlawfully or discriminatorily obtained fees and charges; and attorneys' and experts' fees. These actions have been consolidated for pre-trial purposes.

Private Civil Action Alleging Failure to Ensure Participation in Class Action Settlements

A civil lawsuit, purporting to be a class action lawsuit, has been filed against AIM, IINA, A I M Capital Management, Inc. and the trustees of the AIM Funds alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by failing to ensure that the AIM Funds participated in class action settlements in which the AIM Funds were eligible to participate. This lawsuit alleges as theories of recovery: (i) violation of various provisions of the Federal securities laws;
(ii) common law breach of fiduciary duty; and (iii) common law negligence. This lawsuit has been filed in Federal court and seeks such remedies as compensatory and punitive damages; forfeiture of all commissions and fees paid by the class of plaintiffs; and costs and attorneys' fees.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * As a result of the matters discussed above, investors in the AIM Funds might react by redeeming their investments. This might require the Funds to sell investments to provide for sufficient liquidity and could also have an adverse effect on the investment performance of the Funds.

Item 24. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control With the Fund

No person is presently controlled by or under common control with the Trust.

Item 25. Indemnification

The Registrant's Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, dated July 29, 2003, as amended, provides, among other things (i) that trustees and officers of the Registrant, when acting as such, shall not be personally liable for any act, omission or obligation of the Registrant or any trustee or officer (except for liabilities to the Registrant or its shareholders by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard to duty); (ii) for the indemnification by the Registrant of the trustees, officers, employees and agents of the Registrant to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware Statutory Trust Act and Bylaws and other applicable law; (iii) that shareholders of the Registrant shall not be personally liable for the debts, liabilities, obligations or expenses of the Registrant or any portfolio or class; and (iv) for the indemnification by the Registrant, out of the assets belonging to the applicable portfolio, of shareholders and former shareholders of the Registrant in case they are held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been shareholders of the Registrant or any portfolio or class and not because of their acts or omissions or for some other reason.

A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"), the Registrant and other investment companies managed by AIM, their respective officers, trustees, directors and employees (the "Insured Parties") are insured under a joint Mutual Fund and Investment Advisory Professional and Directors and Officers Liability Policy, issued by ICI Mutual Insurance Company and certain other domestic insurers, with limits up to$60,000,000 (plus an additional $20,000,000 limit that applies to independent directors/trustees only).

Section 16 of the Master Investment Advisory Agreement between the Registrant and AIM provides that in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or duties hereunder on the part of AIM or any of its officers, directors or employees, that AIM shall not be subject to liability to the Registrant or to any series of the Registrant, or to any shareholder of any series of the Registrant for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering services hereunder or for any losses that may be sustained in the purchase, holding or sale of any security. Any liability of AIM to any series of the Registrant shall not automatically impart liability on the part of AIM to any other series of the Registrant. No series of the Registrant shall be liable for the obligations of any other series of the Registrant.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 26. Business and Other Connections of Investment Advisor

The only employment of a substantial nature of the Advisor's directors and officers is with the Advisor and its affiliated companies. See "Fund Management" in the Funds' Prospectuses and "Management of the Funds" in the Statement of Additional Information for information regarding the business of the investment advisor.

AMENDMENT NO. 4 TO
AGREEMENT AND DECLARATION OF TRUST OF AIM SECTOR FUNDS

This Amendment No. 4 (the "Amendment") to the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of AIM Sector Funds (the "Trust") amends the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the Trust dated as of July 29, 2003, as amended (the "Agreement").

At a meeting held on August 4, 2005, the Board of Trustees of the Trust, in accordance with Section 9.7 of the Agreement, approved amendments to the Agreement. Under Section 9.7 of the Agreement, this Amendment may be executed by a duly authorized officer of the Trust.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

1. A new Section 2.6A of the Agreement is hereby added after Section 2.6 of the Agreement as set forth below:

"Section 2.6A. Additional Rights and Preferences of Class K Shares. In addition to the relative rights and preferences set forth in Section 2.5 and all other provisions of this Agreement relating to Shares of the Trust generally, any Class of any Portfolio designated as Class K Shares shall have the following rights and preferences:

(a) Conversion of Class K Shares. At the Effective Time described in
Section 2.6A(d) below, all of the issued and outstanding Class K Shares of any Portfolio of the Trust offering Class K Shares shall convert to Class A Shares of the applicable Portfolio based upon their respective net asset values, and thereafter shall have the attributes of Class A Shares of the applicable Portfolio. All issued and outstanding Class K Shares shall thereafter be deemed to be cancelled. The stock transfer books for Class K Shares of a Portfolio will be closed at the Effective Time and only requests for redemption of Class K Shares of a Portfolio received in proper form prior to the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of the Effective Time shall be accepted. Thereafter, redemption requests received by a Portfolio for its Class K Shares shall be deemed to be a redemption requests for Class A Shares into which Class K Shares were converted.

(b) Attribution of Assets and Liabilities. At the Effective Time described in Section 2.6A(d) below, the proportionate undivided interest in the net assets of a Portfolio attributable to its Class K Shares shall become a part of the proportionate undivided interest in the net assets of the Portfolio attributable to its Class A Shares, and the expenses, costs, charges and reserves allocated to the Class K Shares of a Portfolio immediately prior to the Effective Time shall become expenses, costs, charges and reserves of Class A Shares of such Portfolio. The Portfolio shall instruct its transfer agent to reflect in the transfer agent's records the attribution of the Class K Shares in the manner described above.


(c) Shareholder Accounts. At the Effective Time described in Section 2.6A(d) below, each shareholder of record of Class K Shares of a Portfolio will receive that number of Class A Shares of such Portfolio having an aggregate net asset value equal to the net asset value of the Class K Shares of such Portfolio held by such shareholder immediately prior to the Effective Time. Each Portfolio will establish an open account on its records in the name of each Class K shareholder to which will be credited the respective number of Class A Shares of such Portfolio due to such shareholder. Fractional Class K Shares will be carried to the third decimal place. Certificates representing Class A Shares will not be issued. The net asset value of the Class A Shares and Class K Shares will be determined at the Effective Time in accordance with the policies and procedures of the applicable Portfolio as set forth in its registration statement.

(d) The conversion of Class K Shares into Class A Shares shall occur October 21, 2005 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time or such later date and time as the officers of the Trust shall determine (the "Effective Time")."

(e) If, prior to the Effective Time, (1) the Class A Shareholders of a Portfolio approve any increase in expenses allocated to the Class A Shares of that Portfolio in connection with (A) a Plan of Distribution adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, (B) a non-Rule 12b-1 shareholder services plan or (C) any other plan or arrangement whereby Classes of that Portfolio pay a different share of other expenses, not including advisory or custodial fees or other expenses related to the management of the Trust's assets, then (2) the Class K Shares of that Portfolio will not convert to the Class A Shares unless the Class K Shareholders of that Portfolio, voting separately, approve the increase in expenses. The Trustees shall have sole discretion in determining whether such increase in expenses is submitted to a vote of the Class K Shareholders. Should such increase in expenses not be submitted to a vote of the Class K Shareholders or, if submitted, should the Class K Shareholders fail to approve such increase in expenses, the Trustees shall take such action as is necessary to: (1) create a new class of that Portfolio (the "New Class A Shares") which shall be identical in all material respects to the Class A Shares of that Portfolio as they existed prior to the implementation of the increase in expenses; and (2) ensure that the existing Class K Shares of that Portfolio will be exchanged or converted into New Class A Shares no later than Effective Time. If deemed advisable by the Trustees to implement the foregoing, and at the sole discretion of the Trustees, such action may include the exchange of all Class K Shares of that Portfolio for a new class of that Portfolio (the "New Class K Shares"), identical in all material respects to the Class K Shares of that Portfolio except that the New Class K Shares will convert into the New Class A Shares at the Effective Time. Such exchanges or conversions shall be effected in a manner that the Trustees reasonably believe will not be subject to federal taxation.

2. Effective as of October 22, 2005, Schedule A of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as set forth on Exhibit 1 to this

2

Amendment effective as of the Effective Time as set forth in Section 2.6A of the Agreement.

3. All references in the Agreement to "this Agreement" shall mean the Agreement as amended by this Amendment.

4. Except as specifically amended by this Amendment, the Agreement is hereby confirmed and remains in full force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, a duly authorized officer of the Trust, has executed this Amendment as of August 4, 2005.

THIRD AMENDMENT TO
BYLAWS
OF AIM SECTOR FUNDS

Adopted effective June 30, 2005

The Bylaws of AIM Sector Funds (the "Trust"), adopted effective July 29, 2003, (the "Bylaws"), are hereby amended as follows:

1. Article VIII is hereby amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

"ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT

Section 1. Indemnification. (a) To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Trust (or applicable Portfolio) shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved as a witness in, any proceeding (other than a proceeding by or in the right of the Trust or a Portfolio) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Covered Person, against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such proceeding.

(b) To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Trust (or applicable Portfolio) shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved as a witness in, any proceeding by or in the right of the Trust (or such Portfolio) to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Covered Person, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by that person in connection with the defense or settlement of such proceeding.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, no Covered Person shall be indemnified for any expenses, judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, or other liability or loss arising by reason of disabling conduct. The termination of any proceeding by conviction, or a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, creates a rebuttable presumption that the person engaged in disabling conduct.

Section 2. Advance Payment of Indemnification Expenses. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Trust or applicable Portfolio shall advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved as a witness in, any proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Trustee or officer of the Trust the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense of such proceeding in advance of its final disposition. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Trust or applicable Portfolio may advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Covered Person (other than a Trustee or officer of the Trust) the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense of such proceeding in advance of its final disposition. Notwithstanding


any provision to the contrary contained herein, the Trust shall not advance expenses to any Covered Person (including a Trustee or officer of the Trust) unless:

(a) the Trust or applicable Portfolio has received an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person that the amount of all expenses so advanced will be paid over by such person to the Trust or applicable Portfolio unless it is ultimately determined that such person is entitled to indemnification for such expenses; and

(b) (i) such Covered Person shall have provided appropriate security for such undertaking, or (ii) such Covered Person shall have insured the Trust or applicable Portfolio against losses arising out of any such advance payments, or (iii) either (1) the Trustees, by the vote of a majority of a quorum of qualifying Trustees, or (2) independent legal counsel in a written opinion, shall have determined, based upon a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry) that there is reason to believe that such Covered Person ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification.

Section 3. Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification. Any indemnification required or permitted under this Article VIII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Trust or applicable Portfolio only as authorized in the specific case upon a reasonable determination, based upon a review of the facts, that the Covered Person is entitled to indemnification because (i) he or she is not liable by reason of disabling conduct, or (ii) in cases where there is no liability, he or she has not engaged in disabling conduct. Such determination shall be made by (i) the vote of a majority of a quorum of qualifying Trustees; or (ii) if there are no such Trustees, or if such Trustees so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
Section 2 of this Article VIII, if a determination that a Covered Person engaged in disabling conduct is made in accordance with this Section 3, no further advances of expenses shall be made, and all prior advances, and insurance premiums paid for by the Trust, if applicable, must be repaid.

Section 4. Contract Rights. With respect to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved as a witness in, any proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Covered Person, the rights to indemnification conferred in Section 1 of this Article VIII, and with respect to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved as a witness in, any proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Trustee or officer of the Trust, the advancement of expenses conferred in Section 2 of this Article VIII shall be contract rights. Any amendment, repeal, or modification of, or adoption of any provision inconsistent with, this Article VIII (or any provision hereof) shall not adversely affect any right to indemnification or advancement of expenses granted to any such person pursuant hereto with respect to any act or omission of such person occurring prior to the time of such amendment, repeal, modification, or adoption (regardless of whether the proceeding relating to such acts or omissions is commenced before or after the time of such amendment, repeal, modification, or adoption). Any amendment or modification of, or adoption of any provision inconsistent with, this Article VIII (or any provision hereof), that has the effect of positively affecting any right to indemnification or advancement of expenses granted to any such person pursuant hereto, shall not apply retroactively to any person who was not serving as a Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust at the time of such amendment, modification or adoption.

2

Section 5. Claims. (a) If (X) a claim under Section 1 of this Article VIII with respect to any right to indemnification is not paid in full by the Trust or applicable Portfolio within sixty days after a written demand has been received by the Trust or applicable Portfolio or (Y) a claim under
Section 2 of this Article VIII with respect to any right to the advancement of expenses is not paid in full by the Trust or applicable Portfolio within thirty days after a written demand has been received by the Trust or applicable Portfolio, then the Covered Person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses, as the case may be, may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Trust or applicable Portfolio to recover the unpaid amount of the claim.

(b) If successful in whole or in part in any suit brought pursuant to
Section 5(a) of this Article VIII, or in a suit brought by the Trust or applicable Portfolio to recover an advancement of expenses (whether pursuant to the terms of an undertaking or otherwise), the Covered Person seeking to enforce a right to indemnification or an advancement of expenses hereunder or the Covered Person from whom the Trust or applicable Portfolio sought to recover an advancement of expenses, as the case may be, shall be entitled to be paid by the Trust or applicable Portfolio the reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees) of prosecuting or defending such suit.

Section 6. Definitions. For purposes of this Article VIII: (a) references to "Trust" include any domestic or foreign predecessor entity of this Trust in a merger, consolidation, or other transaction in which the predecessor's existence ceased upon consummation of the transaction; (b) the term "disabling conduct" means willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or the reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of the Covered Person's office with the Trust or applicable Portfolio; (c) the term "expenses" includes, without limitations, attorneys' fees; (d) the term "proceeding" means any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative; and (e) the term "qualifying Trustee" means any Trustee who is not an interested person (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Trust and is not a party to the proceeding."

2. Capitalized terms not specifically defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Trust's Agreement and Declaration of Trust, as amended.

AIM FUNDS

DIRECTOR DEFERRED COMPENSATION AGREEMENT

AGREEMENT, made on this __ day of _______, 20__, by and between the registered open-end investment companies listed on Appendix A hereto (the "Funds"), and _______________________________________________________ (the "Director") residing at __________________________________________________

WHEREAS, the Funds and the Director have entered into agreements pursuant to which the Director will serve as a director/trustee of the Funds; and

WHEREAS, if the Funds and the Director have previously entered into an additional agreement whereby the Funds will provide to the Director a vehicle under which the Director can defer receipt of directors' fees payable by the Funds, they now desire to amend and restate such agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and obligations set forth in this Agreement, the Funds and the Director hereby agree as follows:

1. DEFINITION OF TERMS AND CONSTRUCTION

1.1 Definitions. Unless a different meaning is plainly implied by the context, the following terms as used in this Agreement shall have the following meanings:

(a) "Beneficiary" shall mean such person or persons designated pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof to receive benefits after the death of the Director.

(b) "Boards of Directors" shall mean the respective Boards of Directors of the Funds.

(c) "Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, or any successor statute.

(d) "Compensation" shall mean the amount of directors' fees paid by each of the Funds to the Director during a Deferral Year prior to reduction for Compensation Deferrals made under this Agreement.

(e) "Compensation Deferral" shall mean the amount or amounts of the Director's Compensation deferred under the provisions of Section 3 of this Agreement.

(f) "Deferral Accounts" shall mean the accounts maintained to reflect the Director's Compensation Deferrals made pursuant to Section 3 hereof (or pursuant to any prior agreement) and any other credits or debits thereto.


(g) "Deferral Year" shall mean each calendar year during which the Director makes, or is entitled to make, Compensation Deferrals under Section 3 hereof.

(h) "Retirement" shall have the same meaning as set forth under the Retirement Plan.

(i) "Retirement Plan" shall mean the "AIM Funds Retirement Plan for Eligible Directors/Trustees."

(j) "Valuation Date" shall mean the last business day of each calendar year and any other day upon which the Funds makes valuations of the Deferral Accounts.

1.2 Plurals and Gender. Where appearing in this Agreement the singular shall include the plural and the masculine shall include the feminine, and vice versa, unless the context clearly indicates a different meaning.

1.3 Directors and Trustees. Where appearing in this Agreement, "Director" shall also refer to "Trustee" and "Board of Directors" shall also refer to "Board of Trustees."

1.4 Headings. The headings and sub-headings in this Agreement are inserted for the convenience of reference only and are to be ignored in any construction of the provisions hereof.

1.5 Separate Agreement for Each Fund. This Agreement is drafted, and shall be construed, as a separate agreement between the Director and each of the Funds.

2. PERIOD DURING WHICH COMPENSATION DEFERRALS ARE PERMITTED

2.1 Commencement of Compensation Deferrals. The Director may elect, on a form provided by, and submitted to, the Presidents of the respective Funds, to commence Compensation Deferrals under Section 3 hereof for the period beginning on the later of (i) the date this Agreement is executed or (ii) the date such form is submitted to the Presidents of the Funds.

2.2 Termination of Deferrals. The Director shall not be eligible to make Compensation Deferrals after the earliest of the following dates:

(a) The date on which he ceases to serve as a Director of all of the Funds; or

(b) The effective date of the termination of this Agreement.

3. COMPENSATION DEFERRALS

3.1 Compensation Deferral Elections.

(a) On or prior to the first day of any Deferral Year, the Director may elect, on the form described in Section 2.1 hereof, to defer the receipt of all or a portion of his Compensation for such Deferral Year. Such writing shall set forth the amount of such Compensation Deferral (in whole percentage amounts). Such election shall continue in effect for all subsequent Deferral Years unless it is canceled or modified as provided below.

2

(b) Compensation Deferrals shall be withheld from each payment of Compensation by the Funds to the Director based upon the percentage amount elected by the Director under Section 3.1(a) hereof.

(c) The Director may cancel or modify the amount of his Compensation Deferrals on a prospective basis by submitting to the Presidents of the Funds a revised Compensation Deferral election form. Such change will be effective as of the first day of the Deferral Year following the date such revision is submitted to the Presidents of the Funds.

3.2 Valuation of Deferral Account.

(a) Each Fund shall establish a bookkeeping Deferral Account to which will be credited an amount equal to the Director's Compensation Deferrals under this Agreement made with respect to Compensation earned from each such Fund. Compensation Deferrals shall be allocated to the Deferral Accounts on the first business day following the date such Compensation Deferrals are withheld from the Director's Compensation. As of the date of this Agreement, the Deferral Accounts also shall be credited with the amounts credited to the Director under each other outstanding elective deferred compensation agreement entered into by and between the Funds and the Director which is superseded by this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.11 hereof. The Deferral Accounts shall be debited to reflect any distributions from such Accounts. Such debits shall be allocated to the Deferral Accounts as of the date such distributions are made.

(b) As of each Valuation Date, income, gain and loss equivalents (determined as if the Deferral Accounts are invested in the manner set forth under Section 3.3, below) attributable to the period following the next preceding Valuation Date shall be credited to and/or deducted from the Director's Deferral Accounts.

3.3 Investment of Deferral Account Balances.

(a) (1) The Director may select, from various options made available by the Funds, the investment media in which all or part of his Deferral Accounts shall be deemed to be invested.

(2) The Director shall make an investment designation on a form provided by the Presidents of the Funds which shall remain effective until another valid direction has been made by the Director as herein provided. The Director may amend his investment designation by giving written direction to the Presidents of the Funds in such manner and at such time as the Funds may permit, but no less frequently than quarterly on thirty (30) days' notice prior to the end of a calendar quarter. A timely change to a Director's investment designation shall become effective as soon as practicable following receipt by the Presidents of the Funds.

(3) The investment media deemed to be made available to the Director, and any limitation on the maximum or minimum percentages of the Director's Deferral Accounts that may be invested any particular medium, shall be the same as from time-to-time communicated to the Director by the Presidents of the Funds.

3

(b) Except as provided below, the Director's Deferral Accounts shall be deemed to be invested in accordance with his investment designations, provided such designations conform to the provisions of this Section. If -

(1) the Director does not furnish the Presidents of the Funds with complete, written investment instructions, or

(2) the written investment instructions from the Director are unclear, then the Director's election to make Compensation Deferrals hereunder shall be held in abeyance and have no force or effect until such time as the Director shall provide the Presidents of the Funds with complete investment instructions. Notwithstanding the above, the Boards of Directors, in their sole discretion, may disregard the Director's election and determine that all Compensation Deferrals shall be deemed to be invested in a fund determined by the Boards of Directors. In the event that any fund under which any portion of the Director's Deferral Accounts is deemed to be invested ceases to exist, such portion of the Deferral Accounts thereafter shall be held in the successor to such fund, subject to subsequent deemed investment elections.

The Funds shall provide an annual statement to the Director showing such information as is appropriate, including the aggregate amount in the Deferral Accounts, as of a reasonably current date.

4. DISTRIBUTIONS FROM DEFERRAL ACCOUNTS

4.1 Payment Date and Methods.

(a) Designation of Date. Each deferral direction given pursuant to
Section 3.1 shall include designation of the Payment Date for the value of the amount deferred. Such Payment Date shall be the first day of any calendar quarter, subject to the limitation set forth in paragraph 4.1(c).

(b) Extension Date. At least one year before the Payment Date initially designated pursuant to paragraph 4.1(a) above, the Participant may irrevocably elect to extend such Payment Date to the first day of any calendar quarter, subject to the limitation set forth in paragraph 4.1(c).

(c) Limitation. The Director shall select a Payment Date (or extended Payment Date) that is no sooner than the earlier of (i) the January 1 that follows the second anniversary of the Participant's deferral election made pursuant to paragraph 4.1(a) or (b) or (ii) the January 1 of the year after the Participant's Retirement.

(d) Methods of Payment. Distributions from the Director's Deferral Accounts shall be paid in cash in a single sum unless the Participant elects, at the time a Payment Date is selected pursuant to paragraph 4.1(a) or 4.1(b), to receive the amount payable in generally equal quarterly installments over a period not to exceed ten (10) years. In addition, at least one year before the Payment Date, a Director may change the method of payment previously selected.

4

(e) Irrevocability. Except as provided in paragraphs 4.1(b) and 4.1(d), a designation of a Payment Date and an election of installment payments shall be irrevocable; provided, however, that payment shall be made or begin on a different date as follows:

(1) Upon the Director's death, payment shall be made in accordance with
Section 4.2,

(2) Upon the Director's ceasing to serve as a director of all of the Funds for reasons other than death or Retirement, payment shall be made or begin within three months after the end of the calendar year in which such termination occurs in accordance with the method elected by the Director pursuant to paragraph 4.1(d) provided the designation of such method had been made at least one year before such termination occurred, except that the Boards of Directors, in their sole discretion, may accelerate the distribution of such Deferral Accounts,

(3) Upon termination of this Agreement, payment shall be made in accordance with Section 5.2, and

(4) In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of a Fund or the distribution of all or substantially all of a Fund's assets and property relating to one or more series of its shares to the shareholders of such series (for this purpose a sale, conveyance or transfer of a Fund's assets to a trust, partnership, association or corporation in exchange for cash, shares or other securities with the transfer being made subject to, or with the assumption by the transferee of, the liabilities of the Fund shall not be deemed a termination of the Fund or such a distribution), all unpaid balances of the Deferral Accounts related to such Fund as of the effective date thereof shall be paid in a lump sum on such effective date.

4.2 Death Prior to Complete Distribution of Deferral Accounts. Upon the death of the Director prior to the commencement of the distribution of the amounts credited to his Deferral Accounts, the balance of such Accounts shall be distributed to his Beneficiary in accordance with the method of payment selected pursuant to paragraph 4.1(d), commencing as soon as practicable after the Director's death. In the event of the death of the Director after the commencement of such distribution, but prior to the complete distribution of his Deferral Accounts, the balance of the amounts credited to his Deferral Accounts shall be distributed to his Beneficiary over the remaining period during which such amounts were distributable to the Director under Section 4.1 hereof. Notwithstanding the above, the Boards of Directors, in their sole discretion, may accelerate the distribution of the Deferral Accounts.

4.3 Designation of Beneficiary. For purposes of Section 4.2 hereof, the Director's Beneficiary shall be the person or persons so designated by the Director in a written instrument submitted to the Presidents of the Funds. In the event the Director fails to properly designate a Beneficiary, his Beneficiary shall be the person or persons in the first of the following classes of successive preference Beneficiaries surviving at the death of the Director:
the Director's (1) surviving spouse or (2) estate.

4.4 Payments Due Missing Persons. The Funds shall make a reasonable effort to locate all persons entitled to benefits under this Agreement. However, notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if, after a period of five (5) years from the date such

5

benefit shall be due, any such persons entitled to benefits have not been located, their rights under this Agreement shall stand suspended. Before this provision becomes operative, the Funds shall send a certified letter to all such persons to their last known address advising them that their benefits under this Agreement shall be suspended. Any such suspended amounts shall be held by the Funds for a period of three (3) additional years (or a total of eight (8) years from the time the benefits first become payable) and thereafter, if unclaimed, such amounts shall be forfeited.

5. AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION

5.1 Amendments.

(a) The Funds and the Director may, by a written instrument signed by, or on behalf of, such parties, amend this Agreement at any time and in any manner.

(b) The Funds reserve the right to amend, in whole or in part, and in any manner, any or all of the provisions of this Agreement by action of their Boards of Directors for the purposes of complying with any provision of the Code or any other technical or legal requirements, provided that:

(1) No such amendment shall make it possible for any part of the Director's Deferral Accounts to be used for, or diverted to, purposes other than for the exclusive benefit of the Director or his Beneficiaries, except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement; and

(2) No such amendment may reduce the amount of the Director's Deferral Accounts as of the effective date of such amendment.

5.2 Termination. The Director and the Funds may, by written instrument signed by, or on behalf of, such parties, terminate this Agreement at any time. In the event of the termination of this Agreement, the Boards of Directors, in their sole discretion, may choose to pay out the Director's Deferral Accounts prior to the designated Payment Dates. Otherwise, following a termination of this Agreement, such Accounts shall continue to be maintained in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement until the time they are paid out.

6. MISCELLANEOUS.

6.1 Rights of Creditors.

(a) This Agreement is unfunded. Neither the Director nor any other persons shall have any interest in any specific asset or assets of the Funds by reason of any Deferral Accounts hereunder, nor any rights to receive distribution of his Deferral Accounts except and as to the extent expressly provided hereunder. The Funds shall not be required to purchase, hold or dispose of any investments pursuant to this Agreement; however, if in order to cover their obligations hereunder the Funds elect to purchase any investments the same shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the general assets and property of the Funds, subject to the claims of their general creditors and no person other than the Funds shall by virtue of the provisions of this Agreement have any interest in such assets other than an interest as a general creditor.

6

(b) The rights of the Director and the Beneficiaries to the amounts held in the Deferral Accounts are unsecured and shall be subject to the creditors of the Funds. With respect to the payment of amounts held under the Deferral Accounts, the Director and his Beneficiaries have the status of unsecured creditors of the Funds. This Agreement is executed on behalf of the Funds by an officer, or other representative, of the Funds as such and not individually. Any obligation of the Funds hereunder shall be an unsecured obligation of the Funds and not of any other person.

6.2 Agents. The Funds may employ agents and provide for such clerical, legal, actuarial, accounting, advisory or other services as it deems necessary to perform their duties under this Agreement. The Funds shall bear the cost of such services and all other expenses they incur in connection with the administration of this Agreement.

6.3 Liability and Indemnification. Except for their own gross negligence, willful misconduct or willful breach of the terms of this Agreement, the Funds shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Director against liability or losses occurring by reason of any act or omission of the Funds or any other person.

6.4 Incapacity. If the Funds shall receive evidence satisfactory to them that the Director or any Beneficiary entitled to receive any benefit under the Agreement is, at the time when such benefit becomes payable, a minor, or is physically or mentally incompetent to receive such benefit and to give a valid release therefor, and that another person or an institution is then maintaining or has custody of the Director or Beneficiary and that no guardian, committee or other representative of the estate of the Director or Beneficiary shall have been duly appointed, the Funds may make payment of such benefit otherwise payable to the Director or Beneficiary to such other person or institution, including a custodian under a Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, or corresponding legislation (who shall be an adult, a guardian of the minor or a trust company), and the release of such other person or institution shall be a valid and complete discharge for the payment of such benefit.

6.5 Cooperation of Parties. All parties to this Agreement and any person claiming any interest hereunder agree to perform any and all acts and execute any and all documents and papers which are necessary or desirable for carrying out this Agreement or any of its provisions.

6.6 Governing Law. This Agreement is made and entered into in the State of Texas and all matters concerning its validity, construction and administration shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas.

6.7 Nonguarantee of Directorship. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as a contract or guarantee of the right of the Director to be, or remain as, a director of any of the Funds or to receive any, or any particular rate of, Compensation from any of the Funds.

6.8 Counsel. The Funds may consult with legal counsel with respect to the meaning or construction of this Agreement, their obligations or duties hereunder or with respect to any action or proceeding or any question of law, and they shall be fully protected with respect to any action taken or omitted by them in good faith pursuant to the advice of legal counsel.

7

6.9 Spendthrift Provision. The Director's and Beneficiaries' interests in the Deferral Accounts may not be anticipated, sold, encumbered, pledged, mortgaged, charged, transferred, alienated, assigned nor become subject to execution, garnishment or attachment and any attempt to do so by any person shall render the Deferral Accounts immediately forfeitable.

6.10 Notices. For purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered personally or mailed by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by nationally recognized overnight delivery service providing for a signed return receipt, addressed to the Director at the home address set forth in the Funds' records and to the Funds at the address set forth on the first page of this Agreement, provided that all notices to the Funds shall be directed to the attention of the Presidents of the Funds or to such other address as either party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notice of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

6.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the Funds and the Director with respect to the payment of non-qualified elective deferred compensation by the Fund to the Director. Effective as of the date hereof, this Agreement replaces, and supersedes, all other non-qualified elective deferred compensation agreements by and between the Director and the Funds.

6.12 Interpretation of Agreement. Interpretations of, and determinations (including factual determinations) related to, this Agreement made by the Funds in good faith, including any determinations of the amounts of the Deferral Accounts, shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties; and the Funds shall not incur any liability to the Director for any such interpretation or determination so made or for any other action taken by it in connection with this Agreement in good faith.

6.13 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Funds and their successors and assigns and to the Director and his heirs, executors, administrators and personal representatives.

6.14 Severability. In the event any one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be invalid or unenforceable, such illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof and such other provisions shall remain in full force and effect unaffected by such invalidity or unenforceability.

6.15 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

8

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the day and year first above written.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION AGREEMENT

SUMMARY

Your Deferred Compensation Agreement (the "Agreement") allows you to defer some or all of your annual trustee's fees otherwise payable by the Funds. Deferred fees are deemed invested in certain mutual funds selected by you. The deferral is pre-tax, and the deferred amount and the credited gains, losses and income are not subject to tax until paid out to you.

Your deferrals (and investment experience) are posted to a bookkeeping account maintained by the Funds in your name. In order for you to enjoy the tax deferral, the payments due under the Agreement will be paid from the Funds' general assets, and you are considered a general unsecured creditor of the Funds; you may not transfer your right to receive payments under the Agreement to any other person, nor may you pledge that right to secure any debt or other obligation; finally, an election to defer must be made in writing before the first day of the calendar year for which the fees are earned (the "Election Date") and elections can be changed only prospectively, effective for the next calendar year.

An important change has been made to your Agreement to give you greater flexibility to select the time and method of payment of amounts that you defer:
for amounts previously deferred and for future elections you now designate a specific Payment Date and payment method which generally may be changed with at least one year's advance notice.

PAYMENT DATE ELECTION

Deferred fees (and the income, gains and losses credited during the deferral period) generally will be paid out as elected by you in installments or a single sum in cash within 30 days of the Payment Date elected. (For payments in connection with your termination of service as a trustee, see below.)

Deferrals must be for a minimum two year period (unless your retirement date under the Retirement Plan is earlier). Thus, the Payment Date may be the first day of any calendar quarter that follows the second anniversary of the applicable Election Date or your retirement date. Thus, fees previously deferred and fees payable for the calendar year beginning January 1, 1997 may be deferred to the first day of any calendar quarter in any year from 1999.

EXTENDING A PAYMENT DATE

At least one year prior to any Payment Date, you may extend that Date, provided that the additional period of deferral is at least two years. You may make this change in Payment Date only once.


PAYMENT METHOD

The value of your deferrals (based on your election as to how your deferral account is to be considered invested) will be paid in cash, in one lump sum or in annual

installments (over a period not to exceed 10 years) as you select at the time you select your Payment Date. You may change this election, but the change will not be given effect unless it is made at least one year before your Payment Date or your ceasing to be a trustee (whichever occurs first). This one year requirement is waived in the case of your death (see Termination of Service, below).

TERMINATION OF SERVICE

Upon your death, your account under the Agreement will be paid out as elected by you in installments or in a single sum in cash as soon as practicable. Payment will be made to your designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries or to your estate if there is no surviving Beneficiary.

Upon termination of your service as trustee for any reason other than death or your retirement (as defined in the Retirement Plan), your account will be paid to you as a single sum (or in installments if you had timely elected that method) in cash within three months following the end of the fiscal year in which you terminate, regardless of the Payment Dates you elected.

Re: AIM Sector Funds Registration Statement on Form N-1A

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to AIM Sector Funds, a statutory trust organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Trust") and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end, series management investment company.

This opinion is given in connection with the filing by the Trust of Post-Effective Amendment No. 45 to the Registration Statement on Form N-1A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Amendment No. 45 to such Registration Statement under the 1940 Act (collectively, the "Registration Statement") relating to (i) the registration of an indefinite number of Class R shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share (the "Class R Shares"), of AIM Leisure Fund, and (ii) the registration of an indefinite number of Institutional Class shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share (together with the Class R Shares, the "Shares"), of AIM Utilities Fund (together with AIM Leisure Fund, the "Funds" and each of the Funds, individually, a "Fund").

In connection with our giving this opinion, we have examined copies of the Trust's Amended and Restated Certificate of Trust, Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, as amended (the "Trust Agreement"), and resolutions of the Board of Trustees adopted December 10, 2003, June 30, 2005 and August 4, 2005, and originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such other documents, records and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of this opinion. We have also examined the prospectuses for the Funds, which are included in the Registration Statement, substantially in the form in which they are to be filed (the "Prospectuses"). As to various questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon information provided by officers of the Trust.

The Prospectuses provide for issuance of the Shares from time to time at the net asset value thereof, plus any applicable sales charge. In connection with our giving this opinion, we assume that upon sale of the Shares the Trust will receive the net asset value thereof.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares to be offered for sale pursuant to the Prospectuses are duly authorized and, when sold, issued and paid for as described in the Prospectuses, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

We express no opinion concerning the laws of any jurisdiction other than the federal law of the United States of America and the Delaware Statutory Trust Act.

Both the Delaware Statutory Trust Act and the Trust Agreement provide that shareholders of the Trust shall be entitled to the same limitation on personal liability as is extended under the Delaware General Corporation Law to stockholders of private corporations for profit. There is a remote possibility, however, that, under certain circumstances, shareholders of a Delaware statutory trust may be held personally liable for that trust's obligations to the extent that the courts of another state which does not recognize such limited liability were to apply the laws of such state to a controversy involving such obligations. The Trust Agreement also provides for indemnification out of property of each Fund for all loss and expense of any shareholder held personally liable for the obligations of that Fund. Therefore, the risk of any shareholder incurring financial loss beyond his investment due to shareholder liability is limited to circumstances in which a Fund is unable to meet its obligations and the express limitation of shareholder liabilities is determined not to be effective.

We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name and to the reference to our firm under the caption "Investment Advisory and Other Services - Other Service Providers - Counsel to the Trust" in the Statement of Additional Information for the Funds, which is included in the Registration Statement.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll, LLP


CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

MASTER DISTRIBUTION PLAN
(REIMBURSEMENT)

(INVESTOR CLASS SHARES)

This Master Related Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") by each registered investment company, listed in Schedule A to this Agreement (each individually referred to as a "Fund", or collectively, "Funds"), severally, on behalf of each of the series of common stock or beneficial interest, as the case may be, set forth in Schedule A to this Agreement (each, a "Portfolio" ), with respect to the Investor Class Shares of each such Portfolio listed on Schedule A. This Agreement, being made between A I M Distributors, Inc. ("Distributors") and each Fund, on behalf of each applicable Portfolio, defines the services to be provided by Distributors, or its designees, for which it is to receive its allocated share of expenses incurred pursuant to the Amended and Restated Master Distribution Plan (Investor Class Shares) (the "Plan") adopted by each of the Funds. The Plan has been approved by a majority of the directors/trustees ("Trustees") of each of the Funds, including a majority of the Trustees who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plan or this Agreement (the "Dis-Interested Trustees"), by votes cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the Plan.

1. a. Distributors may use payments received pursuant to Paragraph 2 of this Agreement to provide continuing personal shareholder services to customers who may, from time to time, directly or beneficially own shares of the Funds. Continuing personal shareholder services may include but are not limited to, distributing sales literature to customers, answering routine customer inquiries regarding the Funds, assisting customers in changing dividend options, account designations and addresses, and in enrolling in any of several special investment plans offered in connection with the purchase of the Funds' shares, assisting customers in the establishment and maintenance of customer accounts and records and in the placement of purchase and redemption transactions, assisting customers in investing dividends and capital gains distributions automatically in shares, and providing such other services as the Funds or the customer may reasonably request and Distributors agrees to provide. Distributors will not be obligated to provide services which are provided by a transfer agent for a Fund with respect to a Portfolio.

b. Distributors may also use the payments received pursuant to Paragraph 2 of this Agreement for distribution-related services. As used in this Agreement, "distribution-related services" shall mean any activity which is primarily intended to result in the sale of the Shares, including, but not limited to, organizing and conducting sales seminars, implementing advertising programs, engaging finders and paying finders fees, printing prospectuses and statements of additional information (and supplements thereto) and annual and semi-annual reports for other than existing shareholders, preparing and distributing advertising material and sales literature, making supplemental payments to dealers and other institutions as asset-based sales charges, and administering the Plan.

1

c. Distributors may provide the services described in paragraphs a. and b. above either directly or through third parties (its "designees").

2. For the services provided by Distributors or its designees pursuant to this Agreement, each Fund, on behalf of a Portfolio, shall expend, on a monthly basis, and shall reimburse Distributors to such extent, for Distributors' actual direct expenditures incurred over a rolling twelve-month period (or the rolling twenty-four month period specified below) in engaging in the activities and providing the services specified in Sections 3 and 4 of the Plan, an amount computed at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of such Portfolio during the month as applied to the average net asset value of the shares of such Portfolio purchased or acquired through exchange on or after the Plan Calculation Date shown for such Portfolio on Schedule A. Distributors shall not be entitled hereunder to reimbursement for overhead expenses (overhead expenses defined as customary overhead not including the costs of Distributors' personnel whose primary responsibilities involve marketing of the Funds). Payments by a Fund on behalf of a Portfolio hereunder, for any month, may be made only with respect to: (a) expenditures incurred by Distributors during the rolling twelve-month period in which that month falls, or (b) to the extent permitted by applicable law, for any month during the first twenty-four months following a Portfolio's commencement of operations, expenditures incurred by Distributors during the rolling twenty-four month period in which that month falls, and any expenditures incurred in excess of the limitations described above are not reimbursable. No Fund on behalf of a Portfolio shall be authorized to expend, for any month, a greater amount out of its assets to reimburse Distributors for expenditures incurred during the rolling twenty-four month period referred to above than it would otherwise be authorized to expend out of its assets to reimburse Distributors for expenditures incurred during the rolling twelve-month period referred to above.

3. The total of the fees calculated for all of the Funds listed on Schedule A for any period with respect to which calculations are made shall be paid to Distributors within10 days after the close of each month.

4. Distributors shall furnish the Funds with such information as shall reasonably be requested by the Trustees of the Funds with respect to the fees paid to Distributors pursuant to this Agreement.

5. Distributors shall furnish the Trustees of the Funds, for their review on a quarterly basis, a written report of the amounts expended under the Plan and the purposes for which such expenditures were made.

6. Distributors may enter into other similar Master Related Agreements with any other investment company without a Fund's consent.

7. This Agreement shall become effective immediately upon its approval by a majority of the Trustees of each of the Funds, including a majority of the Dis-Interested Trustees, by votes cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the Plan and this Agreement.

8. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as long as the continuance of the Plan and this Agreement are approved at least annually by a vote of the Trustees,

2

including a majority of the Dis-Interested Trustees, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting thereon.

9. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to any Fund at any time without payment of any penalty by the vote of a majority of the Trustees of such Fund who are Dis-interested Trustees or by a vote of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares, on sixty (60) days' written notice. It will be terminated by any act which terminates the Fund's Plan, and in any event, it shall terminate automatically in the event of its assignment as that term is defined in the 1940 Act.

10. This Agreement may be amended by mutual written agreement of the parties.

11. All communications should be sent to the address of each signor as shown at the bottom of this Agreement.

12. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.

AMENDED AND RESTATED

MASTER DISTRIBUTION PLAN

(CLASS R SHARES)

(Effective August 18, 2003)

SECTION 1. Each registered investment company, as described in Schedule A to this plan (each individually referred to as "Fund", or collectively, "Funds"), severally, on behalf of each of its series of common stock or of beneficial interest, as the case may be, set forth in Schedule A to this plan (each, a "Portfolio"), may act as a distributor of the Class R Shares of such Portfolio (the "Shares") of which such Fund is the issuer, pursuant to Rule12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), according to the terms of this Amended and Restated Master Distribution Plan (the "Plan").

SECTION 2. The Fund may incur expenses pursuant to this Plan on behalf of a Portfolio at the applicable annual rate set forth on Schedule A under "Maximum Aggregate Fee" of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio attributable to the Shares. Such expenses shall be subject to any applicable limitations imposed from time to time by the applicable rules of NASD Inc. ("NASD").

SECTION 3. The Fund may expend amounts under this Plan to finance distribution-related services for the Shares of each Portfolio. Distribution-related services shall mean any activity which is primarily intended to result in the sale of the Shares, including, but not limited to, organizing and conducting sales seminars, implementing advertising programs, engaging finders and paying finders fees, printing prospectuses and statements of additional information (and supplements thereto) and annual and semi-annual reports for other than existing shareholders, preparing and distributing advertising material and sales literature, making supplemental payments to dealers and other institutions as asset-based sales charges, and administering this Plan.

The Fund has selected A I M Distributors, Inc. ("Distributors") to provide distribution-related services on behalf of and for the Shares of each Portfolio. Distributors may provide such distribution-related services either directly or through third parties.

SECTION 4. The Fund may also expend amounts under this Plan to finance payments of service fees under arrangements for personal continuing shareholder services. Personal continuing shareholder services may include, but shall not be limited to, the following: (I) distributing sales literature to customers; (ii) answering routine customer inquiries concerning the Fund and the Shares; (iii) assisting customers in changing dividend options, account designations and addresses, and in enrolling in any of several retirement plans offered in connection with the purchase of Shares; (iv) assisting customers in the establishment and maintenance of customer accounts and records, and in the placement of purchase and redemption transactions; (v) assisting customers in investing dividends and capital gains distributions automatically in Shares; and
(vi) providing such other information and services as the Fund or the customer may reasonably request.

Distributors may implement these arrangements either directly or through third parties.

SECTION 5. All amounts expended pursuant to this Plan shall be paid to Distributors pursuant to the related agreement to this Plan attached hereto as Exhibit A and are the legal obligation of the Fund and not of Distributors. The maximum service fee payable by the Fund on behalf of a Portfolio for personal continuing shareholder services shall be twenty-five one-

1

hundredths of one percent (0.25%), or such lower rate for the Portfolio as is specified on Schedule A, per annum of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio attributable to the Shares owned by the customers of entity providing such shareholder services.

No provision of this Plan shall be interpreted to prohibit any payments by the Fund with respect to the Shares of a Portfolio during periods when the Fund has suspended or otherwise limited sales of such Shares.

SECTION 6. Distributors shall provide to the Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees ("Board of Trustees") and the Board of Trustees shall review, at least quarterly, a written report of the amounts expended under this Plan and the purposes for which such expenditures were made.

SECTION 7. This Plan and any agreement related to this Plan shall become effective immediately, with respect to any Portfolio, upon the receipt by the applicable Fund of both (a) the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board of Trustees of the Fund, and (b) the affirmative vote of a majority of those Directors\Trustees ("Trustees") of the Fund who are not "interested persons" of the Fund (as defined in the 1940 Act) and have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this Plan or any agreements related to it (the "Dis-interested Trustees"), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on this Plan or such agreement.

SECTION 8. Any material amendments to this Plan must be approved, with respect to any Portfolio, by both (a) the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board of Trustees of the applicable Fund, and (b) the affirmative vote of a majority of the Dis-interested Trustees, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the amendment. In addition, this Plan may not be amended with respect to the Shares of any Portfolio to increase materially the amount to be spent for distribution provided for in Section 2 hereof unless such amendment is approved by a "majority of the outstanding voting securities" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Shares of such Portfolio.

SECTION 9. Unless sooner terminated pursuant to Section 10, this Plan and any related agreement shall continue in effect for the Shares of each Portfolio until June 30, 2004 and thereafter each shall continue in effect so long as such continuance is specifically approved, at least annually, in the manner provided for approval of this Plan in Section 7.

SECTION 10. This Plan may be terminated with respect to the Shares of any Portfolio at any time by vote of a majority of the Dis-interested Trustees of the applicable Fund, or by vote of a majority of the outstanding Shares of such Portfolio. If this Plan is terminated with respect to a Portfolio, the obligation of the Fund to make payments pursuant to this Plan with respect to such Portfolio will also cease and the Fund will not be required to make any payments with respect to such Portfolio beyond the termination date.

SECTION 11. Any agreement related to this Plan shall be made in writing, and shall provide:

(a) that such agreement may be terminated at any time, with respect to the Shares of any Portfolio, without payment of any penalty, by vote of a majority of the Dis-interested Trustees of the applicable Fund or by a vote of the outstanding Shares of such Portfolio, on not more than sixty (60) days' written notice to any other party to the agreement; and

(b) that such agreement shall terminate automatically in the event of its assignment.

2

SECTION 12. This Plan amends and restates the plan of distribution in effect immediately prior to August 18, 2003 (the "Prior Plan") for each Portfolio listed on Schedule A which had adopted the Prior Plan, insofar as such Prior Plan pertains to Class R Shares of the Portfolio.

3. The total of the fees calculated for all of the Funds listed on Schedule A for any period with respect to which calculations are made shall be paid to Distributors within10 days after the close of each month.

6. Distributors may enter into other similar Master Related Agreements with any other investment company without a Fund's consent.

7. This Agreement shall become effective immediately upon its approval by a majority of the Trustees of each of the Funds, including a majority of the Dis-InterestedTrustees, by votes cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the Plan and this Agreement.

8. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as long as the continuance of the Plan and this Agreement are approved at least annually by a vote of the Trustees, including a majority of the Dis-Interested Trustees, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting thereon.

9. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to any Fund at any time without payment of any penalty by the vote of a majority of the Trustees of such Fund who are Dis-interested Trustees or by a vote of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares, on sixty (60) days' written notice. It will be terminated by any act which terminates the Fund's Plan, and in any event, it shall terminate automatically in the event of its assignment as that term is defined in the 1940 Act.
