***IMPORTANT NOTICE CONCERNING YOUR FUND***

Dear Shareholder:
We are writing to inform you that the Special Meeting of Shareholders for
certain funds within The AIM Family of Funds --Registered Trademark--, which
was adjourned until May 31, 2000, has been adjourned, once again, due to a
lack of investor response. We have made several attempts to reach you by mail
and/or phone in the last few weeks, however, our records still indicate that
we have not received voting instructions for your account(s). In an effort to
avoid any further expenses to the fund, we are asking you to please take a
moment right now to submit your vote. A final meeting date has been set for
JUNE 16, 2000 and we need to receive your instructions as quickly as possible.
WHY IS THIS MEETING BEING ADJOURNED AGAIN?
To date, an overwhelming number of shareholders have approved the proposals in
the proxy statement. However, the proposal to approve an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization to reorganize the company as a Delaware business trust requires
a larger vote of outstanding shares than the other items on the proxy
statement. As of the May 31 meeting date, over 91% of those responding have
voted in favor of the proposal. However, we have simply not received enough
votes to meet the necessary requirement.
HOW WILL THIS CHANGE IMPACT YOUR FUND?
The reorganization is being proposed primarily to provide the company with
greater flexibility in conducting its business operations. The Delaware
business trust organizational form offers this flexibility and many other fund
companies have also been taking advantage of this preferred structure. One
advantage, in particular, is that the trust will be able to conduct certain
business without the need for engaging in expensive proxy solicitations to
shareholders. In addition, this proposal will not, in any way, affect your
fund's fees, current tax status or investment objectives. The BOARD OF
DIRECTORS of the Fund has carefully reviewed this proposal and for the reasons
set forth in the proxy statement UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS a vote in favor because
it believes that it is in the best interests of the Fund's shareholders.
For your convenience, we have established four easy and quick methods by which
to register your vote:
1. BY PHONE: Please call Shareholder Communications
Corporation toll free at 1-800-609-6554.
Representatives are available to take your
vote Monday through Friday between the hours
of 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 p.m. and Saturday

4. BY MAIL: Return your executed proxy in the enclosed

will be received by June 16, 2000.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate your
anticipated response.
