shares  of this  Fund.  Likewise,  the  Commission  has not  determined  if this

INVESCO Funds Group,  Inc.  ("INVESCO") is the  investment  adviser for the
Fund. Together with our affiliated  companies,  we at INVESCO direct all aspects
of the management of the Fund.

This Prospectus contains important  information about the Fund's Class A, B
and C shares,  which are sold primarily through third parties,  such as brokers,
banks, and financial planners.  Each of the Fund's classes has varying expenses,
with resulting effects on their performance.  You can choose the class of shares
that is best for you,  based on how much you plan to invest  and other  relevant
factors discussed in "How To Buy Shares."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[KEY ICON] [ARROWS ICON] INVESTMENT GOALS, STRATEGIES AND RISKS

The Fund seeks to make your investment grow. It uses an aggressive strategy
and invests  primarily in common stocks  throughout the world.  The Fund invests
primarily in equity  securities that INVESCO  believes will rise in price faster
than other  securities,  as well as in options,  futures  and other  investments
whose values are based upon the values of equity securities.

The Fund invests in companies of all sizes and typically invests in issuers
from at least three different  countries,  including the United States. The Fund
may at times invest in fewer than three countries or even a single  country.  We
define a "foreign"  company as one that has its  principal  business  activities
outside of the United  States.  Since many  companies  do business  all over the
world,  including in the United States,  we look at several factors to determine
where a company's principal business activities are located, including:

o  The physical location of the company's management personnel; and
o  Whether more than 50% of its assets are located outside the United States; or
o  Whether  more  than 50% of its  income is earned  outside  the  United
   States.

The Fund's  strategy relies on many short-term  factors  including  current
information about a company,  investor interest,  price movements of a company's
securities and general market and monetary conditions.  Consequently, the Fund's
investments are usually bought and sold relatively frequently.
<PAGE>
The Fund is managed in the  growth  style.  At  INVESCO,  growth  investing
starts with research  from the "bottom up," and focuses on company  fundamentals
and growth  prospects.  We seek  securities for the Fund that meet the following
standards:

o  EXCEPTIONAL  GROWTH:  The markets and industries they represent are growing
   significantly faster than the economy as a whole.
o  LEADERSHIP:  They  are  leaders  -- or  emerging  leaders  -- in their
   markets,   securing  their  positions   through   technology,   marketing,
   distribution or some other innovative means.
o  FINANCIAL  VALIDATION:  Their  returns  -- in the form of  sales  unit
   growth,  rising operating  margins,  internal funding and other factors --
   demonstrate exceptional growth and leadership.

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.
The  prices of  securities  of smaller  companies  tend to move up and down more
rapidly than the securities prices of larger, more established  companies.  When
the Fund  concentrates  its investments in the securities of smaller  companies,
the  price of Fund  shares  tends to  fluctuate  more  than it would if the Fund
invested in the securities of larger companies.

The Fund  seeks to  participate  in the  initial  public  offering  ("IPO")
market,  and a significant  portion of the Fund's returns may be attributable to
IPO investments; the impact on the Fund's performance of IPO investments will be
magnified if the Fund has a small asset base.  Although the IPO market in recent
years has been  robust,  there is no guarantee  that it will  continue to be so,
and, as the Fund's  assets grow,  there is no  guarantee  that the impact of IPO
investing will produce positive performance.

The Fund will have significant  exposure to foreign  markets.  As a result,
the price of Fund shares may be affected to a large  degree by  fluctuations  in
currency  exchange  rates or  political or economic  conditions  in a particular
country.  The Fund is subject to other principal risks such as emerging markets,
market, liquidity,  derivatives,  options and futures, counterparty, and lack of
timely  information risks. These risks are described and discussed later in this
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 mutual fund, there is always a risk
that you may lose money on your investment in the Fund.

[GRAPH ICON] FUND PERFORMANCE

Since the Fund's shares were not offered until  December 1, 2000,  the Fund
does not yet have a sufficient  operating  history to generate  the  performance
information  which other  INVESCO funds show in bar chart and table form in this
location in their Prospectuses.

(1)  If you buy  $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares and redeem these shares
     within 18 months from the date of purchase,  you may pay a 1% contingent
     deferred sales charge (CDSC) at the time of redemption.

(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)  Because each Class pays a 12b-1 distribution and service fee which is based
     upon the Fund's assets, if you own shares of the Fund for a long 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.

(4)  Based on  estimated  expenses  for the current  fiscal year which may be
     more or less than actual  expenses.  Actual  expenses  are not  provided
     because Fund shares were not offered until December 1, 2000.

EXAMPLES

The  Examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the
Fund to the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The  Examples  assume  that you  invested  $10,000 in the Fund for the time
periods indicated.  The first Example assumes that you redeem all of your shares
at the end of those  periods.  The  second  Example  assumes  that you keep your
shares.  Both Examples also assume that your  investment had a  hypothetical  5%
return  each  year and that the  Fund's  operating  expenses  remain  the  same.
<PAGE>
Although  the actual costs and  performance  of the Fund may be higher or lower,
based on these assumptions your costs would be:

IF SHARES ARE REDEEMED          1 year          3 years
Class A                         $752            $1175
Class B                         $779            $1170
Class C                         $379            $856

IF SHARES ARE NOT REDEEMED      1 year          3 years
Class A                         $752            $1175
Class B                         $279            $856
Class C                         $279            $856

[ARROWS ICON]   INVESTMENT RISKS

You  should  determine  the  level of risk with  which you are  comfortable
before  you  invest.  The  principal  risks of  investing  in any  mutual  fund,
including the Fund, are:

BEFORE  INVESTING IN THE FUND, YOU SHOULD DETERMINE THE LEVEL OF RISK WITH WHICH
YOU ARE  COMFORTABLE.  TAKE INTO ACCOUNT FACTORS LIKE YOUR AGE,  CAREER,  INCOME
LEVEL, AND TIME HORIZON.

NOT  INSURED.  Mutual  funds  are not  insured  by the  FDIC  or any  other
government  agency,  unlike bank  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 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 a part of
your personal investment plan.

[ARROWS ICON]   PRINCIPAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUND

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

FOREIGN SECURITIES RISKS
Investments in foreign and emerging markets carry special risks,  including
currency, political,  regulatory and diplomatic risks. The Fund may invest up to
100% of its assets in securities of non-U.S. issuers.
<PAGE>

        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.

        TRANSACTION  COSTS.  The  costs of buying, selling  and  holding foreign
        securities, including brokerage, tax and custody costs, may be higher
        than those associated with domestic transactions.

        EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AND MONETARY UNION. Austria,  Belgium,  Finland,
        France, Germany,  Ireland, Italy,  Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Portugal
        and Spain are presently  members of the European Economic and Monetary
        Union (the "EMU") which as of January 1,  1999,  adopted  the euro as a
        common  currency.  The  national currencies will be  sub-currencies of
        the euro until July 1, 2002, at which time these currencies will
        disappear entirely. Other European countries may adopt the euro in the
        future.

        As the  euro is  implemented,  there  may be  changes  in the  relative
        strength and value of the U.S.  dollar and other major  currencies,  as
        well as possible adverse tax  consequences.  The euro transition by EMU
        countries   may  affect  the  fiscal  and  monetary   levels  of  those
        participating  countries.  The outcome of these and other uncertainties
        could have  unpredictable  effects on trade and  commerce and result in
        increased volatility for all financial markets.

EMERGING MARKETS RISK
Investments  in emerging  markets  carry  additional  risks beyond  typical
investments  in foreign  securities.  Emerging  markets are  countries  that the
international  financial  community  considers to have developing  economies and
securities  markets that are not as  established  as those in the United States.
Emerging markets are generally  considered to include every country in the world
except the United States, Canada, Japan,  Australia,  New Zealand and nations in
Western Europe (other than Greece, Portugal and Turkey).

Investments  in  emerging  markets  have  a  higher  degree  of  risk  than
investments  in more  established  markets.  These  countries  generally  have a
greater degree of social,  political and economic  instability than do developed
markets.  Governments  of  emerging  market  countries  tend  to  exercise  more
authority over private business  activities,  and, in many cases,  either own or
control large businesses in those countries.  Businesses in emerging markets may
be subject to  nationalization or confiscatory tax legislation that could result
in  investors--  including the Fund-- losing their entire  investment.  Emerging
markets often have a great deal of social tension. Authoritarian governments and
military  involvement in government is common.  In such markets,  there is often
social unrest, including insurgencies and terrorist activities.

<PAGE>
Economically,  emerging markets are generally  dependent upon foreign trade
and foreign investment. Many of these countries have borrowed significantly from
foreign banks and  governments.  These debt  obligations can affect not only the
economy of a developing country, but its social and political stability as well.

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.

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.

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 as
described below.

OPTIONS AND FUTURES RISK

Options  and  futures  are common  types of  derivatives  that the Fund may
occasionally use. An option is the right or obligation to buy or 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.

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
The Fund's investments may be bought and sold relatively frequently. A high
turnover rate may result in higher  brokerage  commissions  and taxable  capital
gain distributions to the Fund's shareholders.

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

Although the Fund generally invests in publicly traded equity securities of
companies located  throughout the world, 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

<PAGE>
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.

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

 markets and valued in U.S.
 dollars, ADRs carry most of the
 risks of investing directly in
 foreign securities.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DELAYED DELIVERY OR
WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES
 Ordinarily, the Fund purchases                         Market Risk
 securities and pays for them in
 cash at the normal trade settlement
 time. When the Fund purchases a
 delayed delivery or when-issued
 security, it promises to pay in the
 future for example, when the security
 is actually  available for delivery
 to the Fund.  The Fund's  obligation
 to pay and the interest  rate it
 receives, in the case of debt
 securities, usually are fixed when
 the Fund promises  to pay.  Between
 the date the Fund  promises to pay
 and the date the securities  are
 actually  received,  the  Fund
 receives  no  interest  on its
 investment, and bears the risk
 that the market value of the when-
 issued security may decline.

FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS                      Currency,  Political,
 A contract to exchange an                              Diplomatic,

 the Fund to hedge against changes

 reduce price fluctuations in foreign
 securities,  or prevent losses if the
 prices of those securities decline.

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

[ARROWS ICON]   TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS

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.

[ARROWS ICON]   PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

We actively manage and trade the Fund's portfolio.  Therefore, the Fund may
have a higher  portfolio  turnover rate than many other mutual funds. The Fund's
average portfolio turnover rate may exceed 200%.

A  portfolio  turnover  rate of 200% is  equivalent  to the Fund buying and
selling  all of the  securities  in its  portfolio  two times in the course of a
year.  A  comparatively  high  turnover  rate may  result  in  higher  brokerage
commissions and taxable capital gain distributions to the Fund's shareholders.

[INVESCO ICON]  POTENTIAL REWARDS

NO SINGLE FUND SHOULD REPRESENT YOUR COMPLETE  INVESTMENT PROGRAM NOR SHOULD YOU
ATTEMPT TO USE THE FUND FOR SHORT-TERM TRADING PURPOSES.

The Fund  offers  shareholders  the  potential  to  increase  the value of their
capital  over time.  Like most mutual  funds,  the Fund seeks to provide  higher
returns  than  the  market  or  its  competitors,   but  cannot  guarantee  that
performance.

SUITABILITY FOR INVESTORS

Only you can  determine if an investment in the 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 Fund is most suitable for investors who:

o  are experienced investors or have obtained the advice of an investment
   professional.
o  are willing to accept the additional risks entailed in the investment
   policies of the Fund.

<PAGE>
o  understand that shares of the Fund can, and likely will, have daily price
   fluctuations.
o  are investing 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 Fund if you are:
o  primarily seeking current dividend income.
o  unwilling to accept the additional risks entailed in the investment policies
   of the Fund and potential  significant changes in the price of Fund shares as
   a result of those policies.
o  speculating on short-term fluctuations in the stock markets.

[INVESCO ICON]  SHARE PRICE

CURRENT MARKET VALUE OF FUND ASSETS
+ ACCRUED INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS
- FUND DEBTS,
INCLUDING ACCRUED EXPENSES
--------------------------
/ NUMBER OF SHARES
= YOUR SHARE PRICE (NAV).

The value of your Fund  shares is  likely to change  daily.  This  value is
known as the Net Asset Value per share,  or NAV.  INVESCO  determines the market
value of each  investment  in the  Fund's  portfolio  each day that the New York
Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open, at the close of the regular trading day on that
Exchange  (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time).  Therefore,  shares of the Fund are
not priced on days when the NYSE is closed,  which  generally is on weekends and
national holidays in the U.S.

NAV is calculated by adding together the current market price of all of the
Fund's  investments and other assets,  including accrued interest and dividends;
subtracting  the Fund's debts,  including  accrued  expenses;  and dividing that
dollar  amount by the total  number of the Fund's  outstanding  shares.  Because
their expenses vary, NAV is determined separately for each class.

All  purchases,  sales and  exchanges of Fund shares are made by INVESCO at
the NAV next calculated after INVESCO receives proper  instructions  from you to
purchase,  redeem or  exchange  shares of the Fund.  Your  instructions  must be
received  by INVESCO no later than the close of the NYSE to effect  transactions
at that day's NAV. If INVESCO hears from you after that time, your  instructions
will be processed at the NAV calculated at the end of the next day that the NYSE
is open.

Foreign securities  exchanges,  which set the prices for foreign securities
held by the Fund, are not always open the same days as the NYSE, and may be open
for business on days the NYSE is not. For example, Thanksgiving Day is a holiday
observed by the NYSE and not by overseas exchanges. In this situation,  the Fund
would not calculate NAV on Thanksgiving  Day (and INVESCO would not buy, sell or
exchange shares for you on that day), even though activity on foreign  exchanges
could  result in  changes in the value of  investments  held by the Fund on that
day.
<PAGE>
[INVESCO ICON]  HOW TO BUY SHARES

TO BUY SHARES AT THAT DAY'S CLOSING  PRICE,  YOU MUST CONTACT US BEFORE THE
CLOSE OF THE NYSE, NORMALLY 4:00 P.M. EASTERN TIME.

The Fund offers multiple classes of shares. The chart in this section shows
several  convenient ways to invest in the Fund. A share of each class represents
an  identical  interest  in the Fund and has the same  rights,  except that each
class bears its own distribution and shareholder  servicing  charges,  and other
expenses. The income attributable to each class and the dividends payable on the
shares of each class will be  reduced by the amount of the  distribution  fee or
service fee, if applicable, and the other expenses payable by that class.

If you buy  $1,000,000  or more of Class A shares  and  redeem  the  shares
within 18 months from the date of purchase, you may pay a 1% contingent deferred
sales charge at the time of  redemption.  This charge would not be assessed upon
Class  A  shares   acquired   through   reinvestment   of   dividends  or  other
distributions, or Class A shares exchanged for Class A shares of another INVESCO
fund. When you invest in the Fund through a securities broker or any other third
parties, you may be charged a commission or transaction fee for either purchases
or  sales  of Fund  shares.  For  all  new  accounts,  please  send a  completed
application form and specify the fund or funds and the class or classes you wish
to purchase.

INVESCO reserves the right to increase,  reduce or waive the Fund's minimum
investment requirements in its sole discretion,  if it determines this action is
in the best  interests of the Fund's  shareholders.  INVESCO  also  reserves the
right in its sole  discretion to reject any order to buy Fund shares,  including
purchases by exchange.

MINIMUM INITIAL INVESTMENT.  $1,000, which is waived for regular investment
plans,  including  EasiVest and Direct Payroll Purchase,  and certain retirement
plans, including IRAs.

MINIMUM  SUBSEQUENT  INVESTMENT.   $50  (Minimums  are  lower  for  certain
retirement plans.)

EXCHANGE POLICY. You may exchange your shares in the Fund for shares of the
same class of another INVESCO fund on the basis of their  respective NAVs at the
time of the exchange.

FUND EXCHANGES CAN BE A CONVENIENT WAY FOR YOU TO DIVERSIFY YOUR INVESTMENTS, OR
TO REALLOCATE YOUR INVESTMENTS WHEN YOUR OBJECTIVES CHANGE.

Before making any exchange, be sure to review the prospectuses of the funds
involved and consider the differences  between the funds.  Also, be certain that
you qualify to purchase  certain  classes of shares in the new fund. An exchange
is the sale of shares  from one fund  immediately  followed  by the  purchase of
shares in  another.  Therefore,  any gain or loss  realized  on the  exchange is
recognizable  for federal income tax purposes  (unless,  of course,  you or your
account  qualifies as  tax-deferred  under the Internal  Revenue  Code).  If the
<PAGE>
shares of the fund you are selling  have gone up in value since you bought them,
the sale portion of an exchange may result in taxable income to you.

You may be required to pay an initial sales charge when  exchanging  from a
fund  with a lower  initial  sales  charge  than  the  one  into  which  you are
exchanging. If you exchange from Class A shares not subject to a CDSC into Class
A shares  subject to those  charges,  you will be charged a CDSC when you redeem
the exchanged  shares.  The CDSC charged upon redemption of those shares will be
calculated starting on the date you acquired those shares through exchange.  You
will not pay a sales  charge  when  exchanging  Class B shares for other Class B
shares or Class C shares  for  other  Class C  shares.  If you make an  exchange
involving  Class B or Class C shares,  the amount of time you held the  original
shares  will be added to the  holding  period  of the Class B or Class C shares,
respectively,  into which you exchange for the purpose of  calculating  any CDSC
that  may be  assessed  upon a  subsequent  redemption.  We have  the  following
policies governing all exchanges:

o  Both fund  accounts  involved in the  exchange  must be  registered  in
   exactly  the  same  name(s)  and  Social  Security  or  federal  tax  I.D.
   number(s).
o  You may make up to four exchanges out of the Fund per 12-month  period,
   but you may be subject to the contingent  deferred sales charge  described
   below.
o  The Fund  reserves  the right to reject  any  exchange  request,  or to
   modify or terminate the exchange policy, if it is in the best interests of
   the  Fund  and its  shareholders.  Notice  of all  such  modifications  or
   terminations  that  affect all  shareholders  of the Fund will be given at
   least 60 days prior to the effective date of the change, except in unusual
   instances,  including a suspension of redemption of the exchanged security
   under Section 22(e) of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

In addition,  the ability to exchange may be  temporarily  suspended at any
time that  sales of the fund into  which you wish to  exchange  are  temporarily
stopped.

Please remember that if you pay by check, Automated Clearing House ("ACH"),
or wire and your funds do not clear,  you will be  responsible  for any  related
loss to the Fund or INVESCO.  If you are already an INVESCO  funds  shareholder,
the Fund may seek reimbursement for any loss from your existing account(s).

CHOOSING A SHARE CLASS. The Fund has multiple classes of shares, each class
representing an interest in the same portfolio of investments. 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  applicable  to that  class,  if any,  (iii) the  eligibility
requirements  that  apply  to  purchases  of a  particular  class,  and (iv) any
assistance you may receive in making your investment determination.

In addition, you should also consider the factors below:

<PAGE>
CONTINGENT  DEFERRED  SALES  CHARGE  (CDSC)  FOR  CLASS A  SHARES.  You can
purchase  $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares at net asset value.  However,  if
you purchase  shares worth  $1,000,000 or more, they may be subject to a CDSC of
1% if you redeem or exchange them prior to 18 months after the date of purchase.
The distributor may pay a dealer  concession  and/or a service fee for purchases
of $1,000,000 or more. We will use the "first-in, first-out" method to determine
your holding period.  Under this method, the date of redemption or exchange will
be compared with the earliest  purchase date of shares held in your account.  If
your  holding  period is less than 18 months,  the CDSC may be  assessed  on the
amount of the total original cost of the shares.

CDSC 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

Seventh and following                   None                    None

*The first year will consist of the first 13 months.

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  consultant  must  provide
sufficient  information  at the time of purchase  to verify  that your  purchase
qualifies for such treatment.

        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.

           RIGHTS OF ACCUMULATION. You may combine your new purchases of Class A
           shares with Class A shares  that were  previously  purchased  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 current value of all Class A shares you own.

           LETTERS  OF  INTENT.  Under a Letter of Intent  (LOI),  you commit to
           purchase  a  specified  dollar  amount  of Class A shares of the Fund
           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.
<PAGE>
INITIAL  SALES  CHARGE/CDSC  EXCEPTIONS
You will not pay initial  sales charges:
o  on shares  purchased  by  reinvesting  dividends  and distributions;
o  when exchanging  shares among certain INVESCO funds;
o  when  using  the  reinstatement  privilege;  and
o  when a  merger, consolidation, or acquisition of assets of an INVESCO
   fund occurs.

You will not pay a CDSC:
o if you purchase less than $1,000,000 of Class A shares;
o if you purchase  $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares and hold those shares
  for more than 18 months;
o if you redeem Class B shares you held for more than six years;
o if you redeem Class C shares you held for more than 13 months;
o if you participate in the periodic  withdrawal  program and withdraw
  up to 10% of the value of your shares that are subject to a CDSC in any
  12-month  period.  The value of your shares,  and  applicable  12-month
  period, will be calculated based upon the value of your account on, and
  the date of, the first periodic withdrawal;
o if you redeem shares acquired through reinvestment of dividends and
  distributions;
o on increases in the net asset value of your shares;
o to pay account fees;
o for IRA distributions due to death, disability or periodic distributions based
  on life expectancy;
o to return excess contributions (and earnings, if applicable) from retirement
  plan accounts; or
o for redemptions following the death of a shareholder or beneficial owner.

There may be other  situations  when you may be able to  purchase or redeem
shares  at  reduced  or no  sales  charges.  Consult  the  Fund's  Statement  of
Additional Information for further details.

DISTRIBUTION  EXPENSES.  We have  adopted  a Master  Distribution  Plan and
Agreement  (commonly  known as a "12b-1  Plan")  for each class of shares of the
Fund.  The  12b-1  fees paid by the  Fund's  classes  of shares  are used to pay
distribution  fees to IDI for the sale and distribution of the Fund's shares and
for services provided to shareholders, all or a substantial portion of which are
paid to the dealer of record.  Because the Fund's  classes pay these fees out of
their  assets  on an  ongoing  basis,  these  fees  increase  the  cost  of your
investment.
<PAGE>
HOUSEHOLDING.  To save money for the Fund,  INVESCO will send only one copy
of a prospectus or financial  report to each  household  address.  This process,
known as "householding," is used for most required shareholder mailings. It does
not apply to account statements.  You may, of course, request an additional copy
of a prospectus or financial  report at any time by calling or writing  INVESCO.
You may also request that  householding  be  eliminated  from all your  required
mailings.

[INVESCO ICON]  HOW TO SELL SHARES

The chart in this section shows several  convenient  ways to sell your Fund
shares.  Shares  of the Fund may be sold at any time at the next NAV  calculated
after your  request to sell in proper form is received by INVESCO.  Depending on
Fund  performance,  the NAV at the time you sell your shares may be more or less
than the price you paid to purchase your shares.

TO SELL SHARES AT THAT DAY'S CLOSING PRICE, YOU MUST CONTACT US BEFORE 4:00
P.M. EASTERN TIME.

If you own shares in more than one INVESCO fund,  please  specify the fund whose
shares you wish to sell and specify the class of shares.  Remember that any sale
or  exchange  of shares in a  non-retirement  account  will  likely  result in a
taxable gain or loss.

While INVESCO attempts to process telephone redemptions promptly, there may
be times -- particularly  in periods of severe economic or market  disruption --
when you may experience delays in redeeming shares by telephone.

INVESCO  usually  forwards the proceeds from the sale of Fund shares within
seven days  after we  receive  your  request  to sell in proper  form.  However,
payment may be postponed under unusual  circumstances -- for instance, if normal
trading is not taking  place on the NYSE,  or during an  emergency as defined by
the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission.  If your  INVESCO  fund  shares were
purchased  by a check which has not yet cleared,  payment will be made  promptly
when your purchase check does clear; that can take up to 12 business days.

Because of the Fund's expense structure, it costs as much to handle a small
account  as it does to handle a large one.  If the value of your  account in the
Fund falls below $250 as a result of your  actions  (for  example,  sale of your
Fund shares),  the Fund reserves the right to sell all of your shares,  send the
proceeds of the sale to you and close your  account.  Before  this is done,  you
will be notified and given 60 days to increase the value of your account to $250
or more.

REDEMPTION FEES. Except for any applicable CDSC, we will not charge you any
fees to redeem your shares;  however,  your broker or financial  consultant  may
charge service fees for handling these transactions.

REINSTATEMENT  PRIVILEGE  (Class A shares  only).  You may,  within 90 days
after you sell Class A shares,  reinvest all or part of your redemption proceeds
in Class A shares in the Fund at net asset  value in an  identically  registered
account.  You  will not pay any  sales  charges  on the  amount  reinvested.  In
addition,  if you had  paid a CDSC on any  reinstated  amount,  you  will not be
subject to a CDSC if you later redeem that amount.  You must notify the transfer
agent in  writing  at the  time  you  reinstate  that  you are  exercising  your
reinstatement  privilege. You may exercise this privilege only once per calendar
year.

[GRAPH ICON]    TAXES

Everyone's  tax status is unique.  We encourage you to consult your own tax
adviser on the tax impact to you of investing in the Fund.

TO AVOID BACKUP  WITHHOLDING,  BE SURE WE HAVE YOUR CORRECT  SOCIAL  SECURITY OR
TAXPAYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER.

The Fund customarily  distributes to its shareholders  substantially  all of its
net  investment  income,  net capital gains and net gains from foreign  currency
transactions,  if any. You receive a proportionate part of these  distributions,
depending on the percentage of the Fund's shares that you own.

These  distributions  are required under federal tax laws governing  mutual
funds. It is the policy of the Fund to distribute all investment company taxable
income  and net  capital  gains.  As a  result  of this  policy  and the  Fund's
qualification as a regulated investment company, it is anticipated that the Fund
will not pay any  federal  income or  excise  taxes.  Instead,  the Fund will be
accorded conduit or "pass through" treatment for federal income tax purposes.

However,  unless you are (or your account is) exempt from income taxes, you
must include all  dividends  and capital gain  distributions  paid to you by the
Fund in your taxable  income for federal,  state and local income tax  purposes.
You also may realize capital gains or losses when you sell shares of the Fund at
more or less than the price you  originally  paid.  An  exchange is treated as a
sale,  and is a taxable  event.  Dividends and other  distributions  usually are
taxable  whether  you receive  them in cash or  automatically  reinvest  them in
shares of the Fund or other INVESCO funds.

If you have not provided  INVESCO with complete,  correct tax  information,
the Fund is required by law to withhold 31% of your  distributions and any money
that you  receive  from the sale of shares  of the Fund as a backup  withholding
tax.

Unless your account is held at a brokerage  firm,  we will provide you with
detailed   information   every  year  about  your  dividends  and  capital  gain
distributions. Depending on the activity in your individual account, we may also
be able to assist with cost basis figures for shares you sell.

<PAGE>
[GRAPH ICON]    DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS

The Fund earns ordinary or investment income from dividends and interest on
its  investments.  The Fund  expects  to  distribute  substantially  all of this
investment income, less Fund expenses, to shareholders annually or at such other
times as the Fund may elect.  Please note that classes with higher  expenses are
expected to have lower dividends.

NET  INVESTMENT  INCOME  AND NET  REALIZED  CAPITAL  GAINS  ARE  DISTRIBUTED  TO
SHAREHOLDERS AT LEAST ANNUALLY.  DISTRIBUTIONS ARE TAXABLE WHETHER REINVESTED IN
ADDITIONAL SHARES OR PAID TO YOU IN CASH (EXCEPT FOR TAX-EXEMPT ACCOUNTS).

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 gains,  if any, are
distributed to shareholders at least annually, usually in November.

Under  present  federal  income tax laws,  capital  gains may be taxable at
different  rates,  depending  on how long  the  Fund  has  held  the  underlying
investment.  Short-term  capital gains 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  20%  for  individuals.

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.  The Fund's NAV will drop by the amount of the  distribution  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. Most shareholders want to avoid this. And, if you sell your shares
at a loss for tax  purposes and purchase a  substantially  identical  investment
within 30 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.

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 another INVESCO 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.  Dividends and other distributions,
whether received in cash or reinvested in additional Fund shares,  are generally
subject to federal income tax.

PLEASE SEE THE MOST RECENT ANNUAL OR SEMIANNUAL REPORT.

The Fund seeks to make your investment  grow. It is actively  managed.  The
Fund invests  primarily in equity  securities that INVESCO believes will rise in
price  faster than other  securities,  as well as in options,  futures and other
investments  whose  values are based upon the values of equity  securities.  The
Fund also  engages  in  short-selling  and may engage in  borrowing  to fund the
purchase of securities, a practice known as "leveraging."

The Fund is managed in the  growth  style.  At  INVESCO,  growth  investing
starts with research  from the "bottom up," and focuses on company  fundamentals
and growth prospects.

We seek  securities  for the Fund that meet the  following  standards:

o  EXCEPTIONAL  GROWTH:  The markets and industries  they represent  are growing
   significantly  faster  than the  economy as a whole.
o  LEADERSHIP:  They are leaders -- or emerging  leaders -- in their markets,
   securing  their  positions through technology, marketing, distribution or
   some other innovative means.
o  FINANCIAL  VALIDATION:  Their  returns  -- in the form of  sales  unit

   demonstrate exceptional growth and leadership.

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
<PAGE>
value-oriented funds when investor sentiment favors the value investing style.

The  Fund  uses an  aggressive  strategy.  The  Fund is not  restricted  to
investing in  companies  of any  particular  market  capitalization.  It invests
primarily in the  securities  of companies  that INVESCO  believes will give the
Fund an investment advantage, i.e., an unusual development in a company or group
of companies which INVESCO believes has the potential for  above-average  growth
in  revenues  and  earnings  and has  favorable  prospects  for  future  growth.
Advantageous  situations may involve:
o  a technological  advance or discovery, the offering of a new or unique
   product or service, or changes in consumer demand or consumption forecasts;
o  changes in the competitive outlook or growth potential of an industry or a
   company within an industry, including changes in the scope or nature of
   foreign competition or development of an emerging industry;
o  new or changed management,  or material changes in management policies;
o  reorganizations,  recapitalizations,  mergers  and  liquidations;
o  significant economic or political occurrences, including changes in foreign
   or domestic import and tax laws or other regulations; or
o  other  events,  including  a major  change  in  demographic  patterns,
   favorable litigation settlements, or natural disasters.

Although  large and  well-known  companies  may be  involved,  advantageous
investment  opportunities more often involve  comparatively  small or unseasoned
companies.  Investments  in unseasoned  companies and  potentially  advantageous
situations often involve much greater risk than investments in other securities.
Advantageous  situations  involve change,  and,  although  INVESCO believes that
changes  will  provide  the  Fund  with an  investment  advantage,  changes  are
inherently  unpredictable  and may not ultimately  develop to the benefit of the
Fund.

A principal investment technique of the Fund is to "sell short" significant
amounts of  securities.  In a short sale,  the Fund sells a security it does not
own in  expectation  that its price will decline by the time the Fund closes out
the short  position by  purchasing  the security at the  then-prevailing  market
price. When the Fund sells a security short,  INVESCO believes that the security
sold short will decrease in value more quickly than the market as a whole.

The Fund  seeks to  participate  in the  initial  public  offering  ("IPO")
market,  and a significant  portion of the Fund's returns may be attributable to
IPO investments; the impact on the Fund's performance of IPO investments will be
magnified if the Fund has a small asset base.  Although the IPO market in recent
years has been  robust,  there is no guarantee  that it will  continue to be so,
and, as the Fund's  assets grow,  there is no  guarantee  that the impact of IPO
investing will produce positive performance.

The Fund may, from time to time,  discontinue public sales of its shares to
new  investors.  Existing  shareholders  of the Fund who maintain  open accounts
would be permitted to make additional investments in the Fund. During any closed
period,  the Fund may impose  different  standards for  additional  investments.
<PAGE>
Also, during a closed period, the Fund will continue to pay Rule 12b-1 fees. The
Fund may also choose to resume sales of shares to new investors.

Although  the Fund is subject  to a number of risks  that could  affect its
performance,  its principal risk is market risk - that is, that the price of the
securities  in its  portfolio  will rise and fall due to price  movements in the
securities  markets,  and that the securities  held in the Fund's  portfolio may
decline in value more than the overall securities market.

The Fund is subject to other principal risks such as those  associated with
derivatives,  including  options and futures.  The Fund will use  derivatives to
hedge certain risks in the portfolio and to attempt to enhance Fund performance.
Although the performance of derivatives is tied to that of the market,  there is
a risk that  derivatives will not perform as expected.  In addition,  there is a
risk that parties with whom the Fund enters into derivatives  transactions  will
not be able to perform  their  obligations  to the Fund.  To the extent the Fund
uses borrowing to buy securities,  the risk of loss is magnified if the value of
the security purchased decreases. The Fund will invest in securities of non-U.S.
issuers,  which generally  carry not only market risks,  but also risks that are
not present with investing in U.S. securities. The Fund is also not diversified,
which means that it may  concentrate  its  investments  in the  securities  of a
comparatively small number of issuers. Changes in the prices of those securities
will have a greater  impact  on the  price of Fund  shares  than if the Fund was
invested in a wider range of securities. 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 mutual fund,
there is always a risk that you may lose money on your investment in the Fund.

[GRAPH ICON]    FUND PERFORMANCE

Since the Fund's shares did not commence investment operations until August

(1)  If you buy  $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares and redeem these shares
     within 18 months from the date of purchase,  you may pay a 1% contingent
     deferred sales charge (CDSC) at the time of redemption.

(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)  The Fund's  annual  base  management  fee is 1.50% of the  Fund's  daily
     average net assets.  On a monthly basis, the base fee either will remain
     unadjusted or will be adjusted up or down  depending upon the investment
     performance of the Class A shares of the Fund compared to the investment
     performance  of the  Russell  3000 Index (the  "Index").  The maximum or
     minimum adjustment over any 12-month period will be 1%. As a result, the
     Fund could pay an  annualized  management  fee that ranges from 0.50% to
     2.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. During the first 12 months
     of the Fund's operations, the management fee will be charged at the base
     fee of  1.50%,  with no  performance  adjustment  made.  Please  see the
     section entitled "Fund Management -- Performance-Based Fee."

(4)  Because each Class pays a 12b-1 distribution and service fee which is based
     upon the Fund's assets, if you own shares of the Fund for a long 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.

EXAMPLES

The  Examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the
Fund to the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The  Examples  assume  that you  invested  $10,000 in the Fund for the time
periods indicated.  The first Example assumes that you redeem all of your shares
at the end of those  periods.  The  second  Example  assumes  that you keep your
shares.  Both Examples also assume that your  investment had a  hypothetical  5%
return  each  year and that the  Fund's  operating  expenses  remain  the  same.
Although  the actual costs and  performance  of the Fund may be higher or lower,
based on these assumptions your costs would be:

[ARROWS ICON]   INVESTMENT RISKS

You  should  determine  the  level of risk with  which you are  comfortable
before  you  invest.  The  principal  risks of  investing  in any  mutual  fund,
including the Fund, are:

BEFORE  INVESTING IN THE FUND, YOU SHOULD  DETERMINE THE LEVEL OF RISK WITH
WHICH YOU ARE  COMFORTABLE.  TAKE INTO ACCOUNT  FACTORS  LIKE YOUR AGE,  CAREER,
INCOME LEVEL, AND TIME HORIZON.

NOT  INSURED.  Mutual  funds  are not  insured  by the  FDIC  or any  other
government agency, unlike bank 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 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 a part of
your personal investment plan.

[ARROWS ICON]   PRINCIPAL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUND

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

NON-DIVERSIFICATION RISK
A  non-diversified  fund is allowed to invest,  with  respect to 50% of its
assets,  more than 5% of its assets in the  securities of any one issuer.  Since
the Fund is  non-diversified,  it may invest in fewer  issuers than if it were a
diversified fund. In addition,  the Fund may invest a significant portion of its
assets in securities of companies doing business in a comparatively small number
of economic sectors. Because of these potential investment  concentrations,  the
value of the  Fund's  shares  may  fluctuate  more  widely,  and the Fund may be
subject to greater market risk, than if the Fund invested more broadly.

<PAGE>

LEVERAGE RISK
When the Fund borrows money to buy securities, it is engaging in a practice
known as "leveraging." Leveraging may result from ordinary borrowings, or may be
inherent in the  structure of certain Fund  investments.  If the prices of those
securities  decrease,  or if the cost of borrowing  exceeds any increases in the
prices  of those  securities,  the net asset  value of the  Fund's  shares  will
decrease faster than if the Fund had not used leveraging.  To repay  borrowings,
the  Fund  may  have  to  sell  securities  at a time  and at a  price  that  is
unfavorable to the Fund. Interest on borrowings is an expense the Fund would not
otherwise incur.

SHORT SALES RISK
When the Fund sells a security  short,  it borrows the security in order to
enter into the short sale transaction,  and the proceeds of the sale may be used
by the Fund as  collateral  for the  borrowing  to the extent  necessary to meet
margin  requirements.  The Fund may also be  required to pay a premium to borrow
the security.

Moreover,  the Fund is  required to maintain a  segregated  account  with a
broker or a custodian consisting of cash or highly liquid securities.  Until the
borrowed security is replaced, the Fund will maintain this account at a level so
that the amount deposited in the account, plus the collateral deposited with the
broker, will equal the current market value of the securities sold short.

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 large
businesses  with  outstanding  securities  worth  $15  billion  or more are less
volatile than those of mid-size  businesses with  outstanding  securities  worth
more than $2 billion, or small businesses with outstanding securities worth less
than $2  billion.  The Fund is free to invest in  companies  with  small  market
capitalizations or those that may otherwise be more volatile.

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.

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 holding  positions in derivatives used as a hedging device
is that the  fluctuations  in their  values may not behave as  anticipated  with
respect to the overall securities markets.  The Fund may also use derivatives in
an attempt to improve  performance,  although there is no guarantee that it will
be successful in that effort.  Some  derivatives  are more sensitive to interest
rate changes and market price  fluctuations  than others,  and thus may increase
market risk.  Also,  derivatives are subject to  counterparty  risk as described
below.
<PAGE>

OPTIONS AND FUTURES RISK
Options and futures are common types of  derivatives  that the Fund uses as
an  investment  strategy as well as to hedge  other  positions  in the Fund.  An
option is the right or obligation to buy or 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 may also increase market risk

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.

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

         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.

         EUROPEAN  ECONOMIC  AND  MONETARY  UNION.  Austria,  Belgium,  Finland,
         France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, The Netherlands,  Portugal
         and Spain are presently  members of the European  Economic and Monetary
         Union (the  "EMU")  which as of January 1, 1999,  adopted the euro as a
         common currency.  The national currencies will be sub-currencies of the
         euro until July 1, 2002, at which time these  currencies will disappear
         entirely. Other European countries may adopt the euro in the future.

         As the  euro is  implemented,  there  may be  changes  in the  relative
         strength and value of the U.S.  dollar and other major  currencies,  as
         well as possible adverse tax  consequences.  The euro transition by EMU
         countries   may  affect  the  fiscal  and  monetary   levels  of  those
         participating  countries.  The outcome of these and other uncertainties
         could have  unpredictable  effects on trade and  commerce and result in
         increased volatility for all financial markets.
<PAGE>
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
The Fund's investments may be bought and sold relatively frequently. A high
Turnover rate may result in higher  brokerage  commissions  and taxable  capital
gain distributions to the Fund's shareholders.

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

Although the Fund generally  invests in publicly traded equity  securities,
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.

 markets and valued in U.S.
 dollars, ADRs carry most of the
 risks of investing directly in
 foreign securities.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DELAYED DELIVERY OR
WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES
 Ordinarily, the Fund purchases                         Market Risk
 securities and pays for them in
 cash at the normal trade settlement
 time. When the Fund pur chases a
 delayed delivery or when-issued
 security, it promises to pay in the
 future for example, when the security
 is actually  avail able for delivery
 to the Fund.  The Fund's  obligation
 to pay and the interest  rate it
 receives, in the case of debt
 securities, usually are fixed when
 the Fund promises  to pay.  Between
 the date the Fund  promises to pay
 and the date the securities  are
 actually  received,  the  Fund
 receives  no  interest  on its
 investment, and bears the risk
 that the market value of the when-
 issued security may decline.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS                      Currency,  Political,
 A contract to exchange an                              Diplomatic,

 exchange  rate  might be used by
 the Fund to hedge against changes

 reduce price fluctuations in foreign
 securities,  or prevent losses if the
 prices of those securities decline.

 foreign currency  exposure and
 other investment risks, which
 can cause its net asset value to
 rise or fall. The Fund may use
 these financial instruments, commonly
 known as "derivatives," to increase or
 decrease its exposure to changing
 securities  prices,  interest rates,
 currency exchange rates or other factors.

RULE 144A SECURITIES
 Securities that are not                                Liquidity Risk
 registered, but which are
 bought and sold solely by
 institutional investors.  The
 Fund considers many Rule 144A
 securities to be "liquid,"
 although the market for such
 securities typically is less
 active than the public
 securities markets.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ARROWS ICON]   TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS

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.

[ARROWS ICON]   PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

We actively manage and trade the Fund's portfolio.  Therefore, the Fund may
have a higher  portfolio  turnover rate than many other mutual funds. The Fund's
average portfolio  turnover rate for the fiscal period ended August 31, 2000 was
5%. The Fund's average  portfolio  turnover rate for the current fiscal year may
exceed 200%.

A  portfolio  turnover  rate of 200% is  equivalent  to the Fund buying and
selling  all of the  securities  in its  portfolio  two times in the course of a
year.  A  comparatively  high  turnover  rate may  result  in  higher  brokerage
commissions and taxable capital gain distributions to the Fund's shareholders.

[INVESCO ICON]  FUND MANAGEMENT

INVESCO IS A  SUBSIDIARY  OF  AMVESCAP  PLC,  AN  INTERNATIONAL  INVESTMENT
MANAGEMENT  COMPANY THAT  MANAGES  MORE THAN $414  BILLION IN ASSETS  WORLDWIDE.
AMVESCAP IS BASED IN LONDON,  WITH MONEY MANAGERS  LOCATED IN EUROPE,  NORTH AND
SOUTH AMERICA, AND THE FAR EAST.

INVESTMENT ADVISER

INVESCO,  located  at 7800 East  Union  Avenue,  Denver,  Colorado,  is the
investment  adviser of the Fund.  INVESCO was  founded in 1932 and manages  over
$46.1 billion for more than 1,123,000 shareholders  of 46 INVESCO  mutual funds.
INVESCO  performs  a wide  variety  of other  services  for the Fund,  including
administrative and transfer agency functions (the processing of purchases, sales
and exchanges of Fund shares).

A wholly owned subsidiary of INVESCO,  IDI is the Fund's distributor and is
responsible for the sale of the Fund's shares.

INVESCO and IDI are subsidiaries of AMVESCAP PLC.

PERFORMANCE-BASED FEE
INVESCO  receives a  management  fee from the Fund that is comprised of two
components.  The first  component  is an  annual  base fee equal to 1.50% of the
Fund's  average  daily  net  assets.  The  second  component  is  a  performance
adjustment that either increases or decreases the base fee, depending on how the
Fund has performed  relative to the Index.  The maximum  performance  adjustment
upward or downward is 1.00% annually.  Depending on the performance of the Fund,
during  any fiscal  year  INVESCO  may  receive as much as 2.50% or as little as
0.50%  in  management  fees.  During  the  first  twelve  months  of the  Fund's
operations,  the management fee will be charged at the base fee of 1.50% with no
performance adjustment.

[INVESCO ICON]  PORTFOLIO MANAGER

The  following  individual  is  primarily  responsible  for the  day-to-day
management of the Fund's portfolio holdings:

THOMAS R. SAMUELSON, vice president of INVESCO, is the portfolio manager of

[INVESCO ICON]  POTENTIAL REWARDS

NO SINGLE FUND SHOULD REPRESENT YOUR COMPLETE INVESTMENT PROGRAM NOR SHOULD
YOU ATTEMPT TO USE THE FUND FOR SHORT-TERM TRADING PURPOSES.

The Fund  offers  shareholders  the  potential  to  increase  the value of their
capital  over time.  Like most mutual  funds,  the Fund seeks to provide  higher
returns  than  the  market  or  its  competitors,   but  cannot  guarantee  that
performance.

SUITABILITY FOR INVESTORS
Only you can  determine if an investment in the 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 Fund is most suitable for investors who:

o  are experienced investors or have obtained the advice of an investment
   professional.
o  are willing to accept the additional risks entailed in the investment
   policies of the Fund.
o  understand  that shares of the Fund can, and likely  will,  have daily
   price fluctuations.
o  are investing 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 Fund if you are:
o  unaccustomed to potentially volatile investments.
o  primarily seeking current dividend income.
o  unwilling to accept the  additional  risks  entailed in the  investment
   policies  of the Fund and  potential  significant  changes in the price of
   Fund shares as a result of those policies.
o  speculating on short-term fluctuations in the stock markets.

[IVESCO ICON]   SHARE PRICE

CURRENT MARKET VALUE OF FUND ASSETS
+ ACCRUED INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS
- FUND DEBTS,
INCLUDING ACCRUED EXPENSES
--------------------------
/ NUMBER OF SHARES
= YOUR SHARE PRICE (NAV).

The value of your Fund  shares is  likely to change  daily.  This  value is
known as the Net Asset Value per share,  or NAV.  INVESCO  determines the market
value of each  investment  in the  Fund's  portfolio  each day that the New York
Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open, at the close of the regular trading day on that
exchange  (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time).  Therefore,  shares of the Fund are
not priced on days when the NYSE is closed,  which  generally is on weekends and
national holidays in the U.S.

NAV is calculated by adding together the current market price of all of the
Fund's  investments and other assets,  including accrued interest and dividends;
subtracting  the Fund's debts,  including  accrued  expenses;  and dividing that
dollar  amount by the total  number of the Fund's  outstanding  shares.  Because
their expenses vary, NAV is determined separately for each class.

<PAGE>
All  purchases,  sales and  exchanges of Fund shares are made by INVESCO at
the NAV next calculated after INVESCO receives proper  instructions  from you to
purchase,  redeem or  exchange  shares of the Fund.  Your  instructions  must be
received  by INVESCO no later than the close of the NYSE to effect  transactions
at that day's NAV. If INVESCO hears from you after that time, your  instructions
will be processed at the NAV calculated at the end of the next day that the NYSE
is open.

Foreign securities  exchanges,  which set the prices for foreign securities
held by the Fund, are not always open the same days as the NYSE, and may be open
for business on days the NYSE is not. For example, Thanksgiving Day is a holiday
observed by the NYSE and not by overseas exchanges. In this situation,  the Fund
would not calculate NAV on Thanksgiving  Day (and INVESCO would not buy, sell or
exchange shares for you on that day), even though activity on foreign  exchanges
could  result in  changes in the value of  investments  held by the Fund on that
day.

[INVESCO ICON]  HOW TO BUY SHARES

TO BUY SHARES AT THAT DAY'S CLOSING  PRICE,  YOU MUST CONTACT US BEFORE THE
CLOSE OF THE NYSE, NORMALLY 4:00 P.M. EASTERN TIME.

The Fund offers multiple classes of shares. The chart in this section shows
several  convenient ways to invest in the Fund. A share of each class represents
an  identical  interest  in the Fund and has the same  rights,  except that each
class bears its own distribution and shareholder  servicing  charges,  and other
expenses. The income attributable to each class and the dividends payable on the
shares of each class will be  reduced by the amount of the  distribution  fee or
service fee, if applicable, and the other expenses payable by that class.

If you buy  $1,000,000  or more of Class A shares  and  redeem  the  shares
within 18 months from the date of purchase, you may pay a 1% contingent deferred
sales charge at the time of  redemption.  This charge would not be assessed upon
Class  A  shares   acquired   through   reinvestment   of   dividends  or  other
distributions, or Class A shares exchanged for Class A shares of another INVESCO
fund. When you invest in the Fund through a securities broker or any other third
parties, you may be charged a commission or transaction fee for either purchases
or  sales  of Fund  shares.  For  all  new  accounts,  please  send a  completed
application form and specify the fund or funds and the class or classes you wish
to purchase.

INVESCO reserves the right to increase,  reduce or waive the Fund's minimum
investment requirements in its sole discretion,  if it determines this action is
in the best  interests of the Fund's  shareholders.  INVESCO  also  reserves the
right in its sole  discretion to reject any order to buy Fund shares,  including
purchases by exchange.

MINIMUM INITIAL INVESTMENT. $10,000, which is waived for regular investment
plans,  including  EasiVest and Direct Payroll Purchase,  and certain retirement
plans, including IRAs.

MINIMUM  SUBSEQUENT  INVESTMENT.  $1,000  (Minimums  are lower for  certain
retirement plans.)
<PAGE>

EXCHANGE POLICY. You may exchange your shares in the Fund for shares of the
same class of another INVESCO fund on the basis of their  respective NAVs at the
time of the exchange.

FUND EXCHANGES CAN BE A CONVENIENT WAY FOR YOU TO DIVERSIFY YOUR INVESTMENTS, OR
TO REALLOCATE YOUR INVESTMENTS WHEN YOUR OBJECTIVES CHANGE.

Before making any exchange, be sure to review the prospectuses of the funds
involved and consider the differences  between the funds.  Also, be certain that
you qualify to purchase  certain  classes of shares in the new fund. An exchange
is the sale of shares  from one fund  immediately  followed  by the  purchase of
shares in  another.  Therefore,  any gain or loss  realized  on the  exchange is
recognizable  for federal income tax purposes  (unless,  of course,  you or your
account  qualifies as  tax-deferred  under the Internal  Revenue  Code).  If the
shares of the fund you are selling  have gone up in value since you bought them,
the sale portion of an exchange may result in taxable income to you.


You may be required to pay an initial sales charge when  exchanging  from a
fund  with a lower  initial  sales  charge  than  the  one  into  which  you are
exchanging. If you exchange from Class A shares not subject to a CDSC into Class
A shares  subject to those  charges,  you will be charged a CDSC when you redeem
the exchanged  shares.  The CDSC charged upon redemption of those shares will be
calculated starting on the date you acquired those shares through exchange.  You
will not pay a sales  charge  when  exchanging  Class B shares for other Class B
shares or Class C shares  for  other  Class C  shares.  If you make an  exchange
involving  Class B or Class C shares,  the amount of time you held the  original
shares  will be added to the  holding  period  of the Class B or Class C shares,
respectively,  into which you exchanged for the purpose of calculating  any CDSC
that  may be  assessed  upon a  subsequent  redemption.

We have  the  following policies governing all exchanges:
o  Both fund  accounts  involved in the  exchange  must be  registered  in
   exactly  the  same  name(s)  and  Social  Security  or  federal  tax  I.D.
   number(s).
o  You may make up to four exchanges out of the Fund per 12-month  period,
   but you may be subject to the contingent  deferred sales charge  described
   below.
o  The Fund  reserves  the right to reject  any  exchange  request,  or to
   modify or terminate the exchange policy, if it is in the best interests of
   the  Fund  and its  shareholders.  Notice  of all  such  modifications  or
   terminations  that  affect all  shareholders  of the Fund will be given at
   least 60 days prior to the effective date of the change, except in unusual
   instances,  including a suspension of redemption of the exchanged security
   under Section 22(e) of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

In addition,  the ability to exchange may be  temporarily  suspended at any
time that  sales of the fund into  which you wish to  exchange  are  temporarily
stopped.

Please remember that if you pay by check, Automated Clearing House ("ACH"),
or wire and your funds do not clear,  you will be  responsible  for any  related
loss to the Fund or INVESCO.  If you are already an INVESCO  funds  shareholder,
the Fund may seek reimbursement for any loss from your existing account(s).
<PAGE>
CHOOSING A SHARE CLASS. The Fund has multiple classes of shares, each class
representing an interest in the same portfolio of investments. 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  applicable  to that  class,  if any,  (iii) the  eligibility
requirements  that  apply  to  purchases  of a  particular  class,  and (iv) any
assistance you may receive in making your investment determination.

In addition, you should also consider the factors below:

CONTINGENT  DEFERRED  SALES  CHARGE  (CDSC)  FOR  CLASS A  SHARES.  You can
purchase  $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares at net asset value.  However,  if
you purchase  shares worth  $1,000,000 or more, they may be subject to a CDSC of
1% if you redeem or exchange them prior to 18 months after the date of purchase.
The distributor may pay a dealer  concession  and/or a service fee for purchases
of $1,000,000 or more. We will use the "first-in, first-out" method to determine
your holding period.  Under this method, the date of redemption or exchange will
be compared with the earliest  purchase date of shares held in your account.  If
your  holding  period is less than 18 months,  the CDSC may be  assessed  on the
amount of the total original cost of the shares.

CDSC 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

*The first year will consist of the first 13 months.

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  consultant  must  provide
sufficient  information  at the time of purchase  to verify  that your  purchase
qualifies for such treatment.
<PAGE>
        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.

           RIGHTS OF ACCUMULATION. You may combine your new purchases of Class A
           shares with Class A shares  that were  previously  purchased  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 current value of all Class A shares you own.

           LETTERS  OF  INTENT.  Under a Letter of Intent  (LOI),  you commit to
           purchase  a  specified  dollar  amount  of Class A shares of the Fund
           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/CDSC  EXCEPTIONS
You  will  not pay  initial  sales charges:
o  on shares purchased by reinvesting dividends and distributions;
o  when exchanging  shares among certain INVESCO funds;
o  when using thereinstatement  privilege;  and
o  when a  merger,  consolidation,  or acquisition of assets of an INVESCO fund
   occurs.

You will not pay a CDSC:
o  if you purchase less than $1,000,000 of Class A shares;
o  if you purchase  $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares and hold those shares
   for more than 18 months;
o  if you redeem  Class B shares you held for more than six years;
o  if you redeem  Class C shares  you held for more than 13 months;
o  if you  participate in the periodic  withdrawal  program and withdraw up to
   10% of the value of your  shares  that are  subject to a CDSC in any  12-
   month period. The value of your shares, and applicable  12-month period, will
   be calculated based upon the value of your account on, and the date of,
   the first periodic withdrawal.
o  if you redeem shares acquired through reinvestment of dividends and
   distributions;
o  on increases in the net asset value of your shares;
o  to pay account fees;
o  for IRA distributions due to death, disability or periodic distributions
   based on life expectancy;
o  to return excess contributions (and earnings, if applicable) from retirement
   plan accounts; or
o  for redemptions following the death of a shareholder or beneficial owner.

There may be other  situations  when you may be able to  purchase or redeem
shares  at  reduced  or no  sales  charges.  Consult  the  Fund's  Statement  of
Additional Information for further details.

DISTRIBUTION  EXPENSES.  We have  adopted  a Master  Distribution  Plan and
Agreement  (commonly  known as a "12b-1  Plan")  for each class of shares of the
Fund.  The  12b-1  fees paid by the  Fund's  classes  of shares  are used to pay
distribution  fees to IDI for the sale and distribution of the Fund's shares and
for services provided to shareholders, all or a substantial portion of which are
paid to the dealer of record.  Because  the Fund's  shares pay these fees out of
their  assets  on an  ongoing  basis,  these  fees  increase  the  cost  of your
investment.

HOUSEHOLDING.  To save money for the Fund,  INVESCO will send only one copy
of a prospectus or financial  report to each  household  address.  This process,
known as "householding," is used for most required shareholder mailings. It does
not apply to account statements.  You may, of course, request an additional copy
of a prospectus or financial  report at any time by calling or writing  INVESCO.
You may also request that  householding  be  eliminated  from all your  required
mailings.

[INVESCO ICON]  HOW TO SELL SHARES

The chart in this section shows several  convenient  ways to sell your Fund
shares.  Shares  of the Fund may be sold at any time at the next NAV  calculated
after your  request to sell in proper form is received by INVESCO.  Depending on
Fund  performance,  the NAV at the time you sell your shares may be more or less
than the price you paid to purchase your shares.

TO SELL SHARES AT THAT DAY'S CLOSING PRICE, YOU MUST CONTACT US BEFORE 4:00
P.M. EASTERN TIME.

If you own shares in more than one INVESCO fund,  please  specify the fund whose
shares you wish to sell and specify the class of shares.  Remember that any sale
or  exchange  of shares in a  non-retirement  account  will  likely  result in a
taxable gain or loss.
<PAGE>

While INVESCO attempts to process telephone redemptions promptly, there may
be times -- particularly  in periods of severe economic or market  disruption --
when you may experience delays in redeeming shares by telephone.

INVESCO  usually  forwards the proceeds from the sale of Fund shares within
seven days  after we  receive  your  request  to sell in proper  form.  However,
payment may be postponed under unusual  circumstances -- for instance, if normal
trading is not taking  place on the NYSE,  or during an  emergency as defined by
the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission.  If your  INVESCO  fund  shares were
purchased  by a check which has not yet cleared,  payment will be made  promptly
when your purchase check does clear; that can take up to 12 business days.

Because of the Fund's expense structure, it costs as much to handle a small
account  as it does to handle a large one.  If the value of your  account in the
Fund falls below $250 as a result of your  actions  (for  example,  sale of your
Fund shares),  the Fund reserves the right to sell all of your shares,  send the
proceeds of the sale to you and close your  account.  Before  this is done,  you
will be notified and given 60 days to increase the value of your account to $250
or more.

REDEMPTION FEES. Except for any applicable CDSC, we will not charge you any
fees to redeem your shares;  however,  your broker or financial  consultant  may
charge service fees for handling these transactions.

REINSTATEMENT  PRIVILEGE  (Class A shares  only).  You may,  within 90 days
after you sell Class A shares,  reinvest all or part of your redemption proceeds
in Class A shares in the Fund at net asset  value in an  identically  registered
account.  You  will not pay any  sales  charges  on the  amount  reinvested.  In
addition,  if you had  paid a CDSC on any  reinstated  amount,  you  will not be
subject to a CDSC if you later redeem that amount.  You must notify the transfer
agent in  writing  at the  time  you  reinstate  that  you are  exercising  your
reinstatement  privilege. You may exercise this privilege only once per calendar
year.

[GRAPH ICON]    TAXES

Everyone's  tax status is unique.  We encourage you to consult your own tax
adviser on the tax impact to you of investing in the Fund.

TO AVOID BACKUP  WITHHOLDING,  BE SURE WE HAVE YOUR CORRECT  SOCIAL  SECURITY OR
TAXPAYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER.

The Fund customarily  distributes to its shareholders  substantially all of
its net investment income, net capital gains and net gains from foreign currency
transactions,  if any. You receive a proportionate part of these  distributions,
depending  on  the   percentage  of  the  Fund's  shares  that  you  own.  These
distributions  are required under federal tax laws governing mutual funds. It is
the policy of the Fund to distribute all investment  company  taxable income and
net capital gains. As a result of this policy and the Fund's  qualification as a
regulated  investment  company, it is anticipated that the Fund will not pay any
federal income or excise taxes.  Instead,  the Fund will be accorded  conduit or
"pass through" treatment for federal income tax purposes.
<PAGE>
However,  unless you are (or your account is) exempt from income taxes, you
must include all  dividends  and capital gain  distributions  paid to you by the
Fund in your taxable  income for federal,  state and local income tax  purposes.
You also may realize capital gains or losses when you sell shares of the Fund at
more or less than the price you  originally  paid.  An  exchange is treated as a
sale,  and is a taxable  event.  Dividends and other  distributions  usually are
taxable  whether  you receive  them in cash or  automatically  reinvest  them in
shares of the Fund or other INVESCO funds.

If you have not provided  INVESCO with complete,  correct tax  information,
the Fund is required by law to withhold 31% of your  distributions and any money
that you  receive  from the sale of shares  of the Fund as a backup  withholding
tax.

Unless your account is held at a brokerage  firm,  we will provide you with
detailed   information   every  year  about  your  dividends  and  capital  gain
distributions. Depending on the activity in your individual account, we may also
be able to assist with cost basis figures for shares you sell.

[GRAPH ICON]    DIVIDENDS AND CAPITAL GAIN DISTRIBUTIONS

The Fund earns ordinary or investment income from dividends and interest on
its  investments.  The Fund  expects  to  distribute  substantially  all of this
investment income, less Fund expenses, to shareholders annually or at such other
times as the Fund may elect.  Please note that classes with higher  expenses are
expected to have lower dividends.

NET  INVESTMENT  INCOME  AND NET  REALIZED  CAPITAL  GAINS  ARE  DISTRIBUTED  TO
SHAREHOLDERS AT LEAST ANNUALLY.  DISTRIBUTIONS ARE TAXABLE WHETHER REINVESTED IN
ADDITIONAL SHARES OR PAID TO YOU IN CASH (EXCEPT FOR TAX-EXEMPT ACCOUNTS).

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 gains,  if any, are
distributed to shareholders at least annually, usually in November.

Under  present  federal  income tax laws,  capital  gains may be taxable at
different  rates,  depending  on how long  the  Fund  has  held  the  underlying
investment.  Short-term  capital gains 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 20% for individuals.

Dividends and capital gain distributions are paid to you if you hold shares
on the record date of the  distribution  regardless  how long you have held your
shares.  The Fund's NAV will drop by the amount of the  distribution  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. Most shareholders want to avoid this. And, if you sell your shares
<PAGE>
at a loss for tax  purposes and purchase a  substantially  identical  investment
within 30 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.

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 another INVESCO 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.  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 Class A, B and C shares of the Fund for the past five
years (or, if shorter, the period of the Fund's operations). Certain information
reflects  financial  results for a single share.  The total returns in the table
represent  the annual  percentages  that an  investor  would  have  earned on an
investment in a share of the Fund  (assuming  reinvestment  of all dividends and
distributions). This information has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP,
independent accountants,  whose report, along with the financial statements,  is
included in INVESCO  Advantage  Funds,  Inc.'s  (now known as INVESCO  Counselor
Series Funds, Inc.) 2000 Annual Report to Shareholders, which is incorporated by
reference into the Statement of Additional Information. This Report is available
without charge by contacting IDI at the address or telephone  number on the back

THE COMPANY

The Company was  incorporated  on April 24, 2000 under the laws of Maryland
as INVESCO Advantage Series Funds, Inc. On November 8, 2000, the Company changed
its name to INVESCO  Counselor  Series  Funds,  Inc.  The Company is an open-end
management   investment  company  currently  consisting  of  two  portfolios  of
investments: INVESCO Advantage Fund - Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C
shares and INVESCO Global Growth Fund - Class A shares, Class B shares and Class
C shares (each a "Fund" and, collectively, the "Funds"). Additional funds may be
offered in the future.

"Open-end"  means that each Fund issues an indefinite  number of shares which it
continuously  offers  to  redeem  at  net  asset  value  per  share  ("NAV").  A
"management"  investment  company  actively  buys and sells  securities  for the
portfolio of 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.

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.

ADRs -- American Depository Receipts, or ADRs, are securities issued by American
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.

BORROWINGS  AND LEVERAGE - The Funds may borrow money from banks  (including the
Funds' custodian bank), subject to the limitations under the 1940 Act. The Funds
will limit  borrowings and reverse  repurchase  agreements to an aggregate of 33
1/3% of each Fund's total assets at the time of the transaction.

The  Advantage  Fund may employ  "leverage"  by borrowing  money and using it to
purchase additional  securities.  Leverage increases both investment opportunity
and investment  risk. If the investment  gains on the securities  purchased with
borrowed money exceed the interest paid on the borrowing, the net asset value of
the Fund's  shares  will rise faster than would  otherwise  be the case.  On the
other hand, if the investment  gains fail to cover the cost (including  interest
on borrowings), or if there are losses, the net asset value of the Fund's shares
will decrease  faster than would  otherwise be the case.  The Fund will maintain
asset coverage of at least 300% for all such  borrowings,  and should such asset
coverage  at any time fall below  300%,  the Fund will be required to reduce its
borrowings   within  three  days  to  the  extent   necessary  to  satisfy  this
requirement.  To reduce  its  borrowings,  the Fund  might be  required  to sell
securities at a disadvantageous  time.  Interest on money borrowed is an expense
the Fund would not otherwise incur, and the Fund may therefore have little or no
investment income during periods of substantial borrowings.
<PAGE>

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 of directors. 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.  An investment 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 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.
INVESCO Funds Group,  Inc.  ("INVESCO"),  the Funds'  investment  adviser,  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, Inc. ("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.
<PAGE>
Each Fund may invest up to 25% of its portfolio in lower-rated  debt securities,
which 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 the 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 BB or less by S&P.  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 are not  permitted
to invest in bonds  that are in  default or are rated CCC or below by S&P or Caa
or below by Moody's  or, if unrated,  are judged by INVESCO to be of  equivalent
quality. Debt securities rated lower than B by either S&P or Moody's are usually
considered to be speculative.  At the time of purchase,  INVESCO will limit Fund
investments to debt securities which INVESCO believes are not highly speculative
and which are rated at least B by S&P and 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, INVESCO 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 and B)  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 B a higher
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.

Global Growth Fund expects that most emerging  country debt  securities in which
it may 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 ratings  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 and step-up  bonds.  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
<PAGE>
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,  banker's  acceptances may be subject to foreign
currency risk and certain other risks of investment in foreign securities.

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 a  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.
<PAGE>
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.

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.
<PAGE>
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. As discussed in the Prospectuses,  the adviser 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, it 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, the adviser 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.
<PAGE>
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 the adviser
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 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
distort 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 they typically invest. 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 the adviser
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.
<PAGE>
(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  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
underlier  and the purchase of put options can serve as a hedge  against a price
decline of the  underlier.  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.
<PAGE>
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 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.
<PAGE>
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.
<PAGE>
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 the adviser 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 the
adviser  wishes to  lengthen  the  duration of a Fund's  fixed-income  portfolio
(i.e.,  increase  anticipated  sensitivity),  a 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 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.
<PAGE>
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, the adviser 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 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 the adviser  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.
<PAGE>
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.  A Fund 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.

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 the adviser  anticipates that there will
be a positive correlation between the two currencies.
<PAGE>
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 the adviser anticipates. There is no assurance that
the adviser'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
<PAGE>
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 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.

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.

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 INVESCO  and its  affiliates,  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 Standard & Poor's
Depository  Receipts ("SPDRs") and shares of other investment  companies.  SPDRs
are investment  companies whose  portfolios  mirror the compositions of specific
S&P  indices,  such as the S&P 500 and the S&P  400.  SPDRs  are  traded  on the
American  Stock  Exchange.  SPDR  holders  such as a Fund are  paid a  "Dividend
Equivalent  Amount" that corresponds to the amount of cash dividends accruing to
the  securities  held by the SPDR Trust,  net of certain fees and expenses.  The
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"),  limits investments
in  securities  of other  investment  companies,  such as the SPDR Trust.  These
limitations include, among others, that, subject to certain exceptions,  no more
than 10% of a  Fund's  total  assets  may be  invested  in  securities  of other
investment companies, no more than 5% of its total assets may be invested in the
securities of any one  investment  company and a Fund may own no more than 3% of
the  outstanding  shares may be invested  in the  securities  of any  investment
company.  As a shareholder of another investment  company, a Fund would bear its
pro rata portion of the other investment company's expenses,  including advisory
fees, in addition to the expenses the Fund bears directly in connection with its
own operations.

REAL ESTATE  INVESTMENT  TRUSTS - To the extent  consistent  with its investment
objectives and policies,  a Fund may invest in securities  issued by real estate
investment trusts  ("REITs").  Such investments will not exceed 25% of the total
assets of the Fund.
<PAGE>
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 a Fund has the  ability  to invest in REITs,  the Fund could
conceivably  own real estate directly as a result of a default on the securities
it owns. A Fund, 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,  or 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 the 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 the
Fund's custodian bank until the repurchase agreement is completed.

The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements with commercial banks, registered
broker-dealers or registered government securities dealers that are creditworthy
under standards  established by the Company's board of directors.  The Company's
board of directors has established standards that INVESCO must use to review the
creditworthiness  of any bank,  broker or dealer that is 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 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.
<PAGE>
RULE 144A SECURITIES -- 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  Company's   board  of  directors   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 Company's  board of directors has given INVESCO 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.

SECURITIES LENDING -- Each Fund may lend its portfolio securities. The advantage
of lending  portfolio  securities is that a Fund  continues to have the benefits
(and  risks)  of  ownership  of the  loaned  securities,  while at the same time
receiving  interest  from the  borrower of the  securities.  The primary risk in
lending  portfolio  securities is that a borrower may fail to return a portfolio
security.

SHORT  SALES  (ADVANTAGE  FUND ONLY) -- The Fund may sell a  security  short and
borrow the same  security  from a broker or other  institution  to complete  the
sale.  The Fund will lose money on a short sale  transaction if the price of the
borrowed  security  increases between the date of the short sale and the date on
which the Fund closes the short position by purchasing the security; conversely,
the Fund may  realize  a gain if the  price of the  borrowed  security  declines
between those dates.

There is no guarantee  that the Fund will be able to close out a short  position
at any particular time or at an acceptable price.  During the time that the Fund
is short the security, it is subject to the risk that the lender of the security
will  terminate  the loan at a time when the Fund is  unable to borrow  the same
security from another lender. If that occurs, the Fund may be "bought in" at the
price required to purchase the security needed to close out the short position.

In short sale transactions,  the Fund's gain is limited to the price at which it
sold the security  short;  its loss is limited only by the maximum price it must
pay to acquire the security  less the price at which the  security was sold.  In
theory, losses from short sales may be unlimited.  Until a security that is sold
short is acquired by the Fund,  the Fund must pay the lender any dividends  that
accrue during the loan period. In order to borrow the security, the Fund usually
is required to pay  compensation to the lender.  Short sales also cause the Fund
to incur brokerage fees and other transaction  costs.  Therefore,  the amount of
any gain the Fund may receive from a short sale  transaction  is decreased - and
the amount of any loss increased - by the amount of  compensation to the lender,
dividends and expenses the Fund may be required to pay.

Until the Fund replaces a borrowed security, it must segregate liquid securities
or other  collateral  with a broker or other custodian in an amount equal to the
current  market  value of the security  sold short.  The Fund expects to receive
interest on the collateral it deposits. The use of short sales may result in the
Fund realizing more  short-term  capital gains than it would if the Fund did not
engage in short sales.
<PAGE>

This Fund may sell short against the box.

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  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.

SPECIAL  SITUATIONS  (ADVANTAGE  FUND ONLY) - The Fund will  invest in  "special
situations."  A special  situation  arises  when,  in the  opinion of the Fund's
management,  the  securities of a particular  company will,  within a reasonably
estimable period of time, be accorded market recognition at an appreciated value
solely by reason of a development  applicable to that company, and regardless of
general business conditions or movements of the market as a whole.  Developments
creating  special   situations  might  include,   among  others:   liquidations,
reorganizations,  recapitalizations,  mergers,  material  litigation,  technical
breakthroughs,  and new  management or management  policies.  Although large and
well-known  companies  may be involved,  special  situations  more often involve
comparatively small or unseasoned companies. Investments in unseasoned companies
and special  situations  often  involve  much  greater  risk than is inherent in
ordinary investment securities.
<PAGE>
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   Government   National   Mortgage   Association   ("GNMA")
Participation  Certificates,  are  supported by the full faith and credit of the
U.S. Treasury.  GNMA Certificates are  mortgage-backed  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.  A Fund will invest in  securities of such  instrumentalities  only
when  INVESCO  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  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
<PAGE>
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.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

The Funds  operate under certain  investment  restrictions.  For purposes of the
following  restrictions,  all percentage  limitations  apply immediately after a
purchase or initial investment. Any subsequent change in a particular percentage
resulting  from  fluctuations  in value  does  not  require  elimination  of any
security from a Fund.

The following  restrictions are fundamental and may not be changed without prior
approval  of a majority  of the  outstanding  voting  securities  of a Fund,  as
defined in the 1940 Act. Each Fund may not:

     1. with respect to 50% of the Advantage  Fund's total assets and 75% of the
     Global Growth 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; or

     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. 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 INVESCO or an affiliate
     or a successor thereof, with substantially the same fundamental  investment
     objective, policies and limitations as the Fund.

     9. Global Growth Fund may not 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 municipal  securities) if, as a result,
     more  than  25% of  the  Fund's  total  assets  would  be  invested  in the
     securities of companies whose principal business activities are in the same
     industry.
<PAGE>
In  addition,   unless  otherwise   indicated,   each  Fund  has  the  following
non-fundamental policies, which may be changed without shareholder approval:

     A. The Global Growth 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 Global  Growth Fund from  entering  into
     short positions in foreign currency,  futures contracts,  options,  forward
     contracts,  swaps, caps, floors,  collars and other financial  instruments,
     (ii) the Global  Growth  Fund may  obtain  such  short-term  credits as are
     necessary  for the clearance of  transactions,  and (iii) the Global Growth
     Fund may  make  margin  payments  in  connection  with  futures  contracts,
     options,  forward  contracts,   swaps,  caps,  floors,  collars  and  other
     financial instruments.

     B.  Each  Fund  may  borrow  money  only  from a bank or  from an  open-end
     management  investment  company  managed by INVESCO  or an  affiliate  or a
     successor  thereof for  temporary or  emergency  purposes,  for  leveraging
     (Advantage  Fund only) or investing,  or  byengaging in reverse  repurchase
     agreements with any party (reverse repurchase agreements will be treated as
     borrowing for the purposes of fundamental limitation (3)).

     C. Each 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. Each 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. With respect to fundamental limitation (9), domestic and foreign banking
     will be considered to be different industries.

     F. With respect to fundamental  limitation (9),  investments in obligations
     issued by a foreign government, including the agencies or instrumentalities
     of a foreign  government,  are  considered to be  investments in a specific
     industry.

THE INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

INVESCO serves as investment  adviser to the Funds under an Investment  Advisory
Agreement dated August 23, 2000 (the "Agreement") with the Company.

The Agreement requires that INVESCO manage the investment portfolio of each Fund
in a way that conforms with the Fund's investment policies. INVESCO may directly
manage a Fund itself,  or may hire a  sub-adviser,  which may be an affiliate of
INVESCO, to do so. Specifically, INVESCO is responsible for:

     o    managing  the  investment  and  reinvestment  of all the assets of the
          Funds, and executing all purchases and sales of portfolio securities;

     o    maintaining a continuous investment program for the Funds,  consistent
          with (i) each Fund's investment policies as set forth in the Company's
          Articles of Incorporation,  Bylaws and Registration Statement, as from
          time to time amended, under the 1940 Act, and in any prospectus and/or
          statement of additional  information of the Fund, as from time to time
          amended and in use under the 1933 Act, and (ii) the  Company's  status
          as a regulated  investment  company under the Internal Revenue Code of
          1986, as amended;

     o    determining what securities are to be purchased or sold for the Funds,
          unless  otherwise  directed  by  the  directors  of the  Company,  and
          executing transactions accordingly;

     o    providing  the  Funds  the  benefit  of the  investment  analysis  and
          research,  the reviews of current economic  conditions and trends, and
          the  consideration of a long-range  investment policy now or hereafter
          generally  available  to  the  investment  advisory  customers  of the
          adviser or any sub-adviser;

     o    determining  what portion of each Fund's  assets should be invested in
          the various types of securities  authorized  for purchase by the Fund;
          and

     o    making recommendations as to the manner in which voting rights, rights
          to consent to Fund action and any other rights  pertaining to a Fund's
          portfolio securities shall be exercised.
<PAGE>
INVESCO also performs all of the following services for the Funds:

     o    administrative;

     o    internal accounting (including computation of net asset value);

     o    clerical and statistical;

     o    secretarial;

     o    all other services  necessary or incidental to the  administration  of
          the affairs of the Funds;

     o    supplying  the  Company  with  officers,   clerical  staff  and  other
          employees;

     o    furnishing  office  space,   facilities,   equipment,   and  supplies;
          providing  personnel and  facilities  required to respond to inquiries
          related to shareholder accounts;

     o    conducting  periodic  compliance  reviews  of the  Funds'  operations;
          preparation and review of required  documents,  reports and filings by
          INVESCO's  in-house legal and accounting  staff or in conjunction with
          independent  attorneys  and  accountants  (including   prospectus(es),
          statements of additional  information,  proxy statements,  shareholder
          reports,  tax  returns,  reports  to  the  SEC,  and  other  corporate
          documents of the Funds);

     o    supplying basic telephone service and other utilities; and

     o    preparing and maintaining certain of the books and records required to
          be prepared and maintained by the Funds under the 1940 Act.

ADVANTAGE FUND
Expenses not assumed by INVESCO are borne by the Fund. For the advisory services
it provides to the Fund,  INVESCO is entitled to receive a base  management  fee
calculated at the annual rate of 1.50% of the Fund's daily net assets (the "Base
Fee"). This Base Fee will be adjusted, on a monthly basis (i) upward at the rate
of  0.20%,  on a pro  rata  basis,  for each  percentage  point  the  investment
performance  of the Class A shares of the Fund  exceeds  the sum of 2.00% of the
investment  record of the Russell 3000 Index (the "Index"),  or (ii) downward at
the rate of 0.20%, on a pro rata basis, for each percentage point the investment
record of the Index less 2.00% exceeds the investment performance of the Class A
shares of the Fund (the "Fee Adjustment"). The maximum or minimum adjustment, if
any,  will be 1.00%  annually.  Therefore,  the  maximum  annual fee  payable to
INVESCO  will be 2.50% of average  daily net assets and the  minimum  annual fee
will be 0.50% of average  daily net assets.  During the first  twelve  months of
operation,  the  management fee will be charged at the base fee of 1.50% with no
performance adjustment.

In determining the Fee Adjustment,  if any, applicable during any month, INVESCO
will compare the  investment  performance  of the Class A shares of the Fund for
the  twelve-month  period  ending  on  the  last  day of the  prior  month  (the
"Performance  Period")  to  the  investment  record  of  the  Index  during  the
Performance Period. The investment performance of the Fund will be determined by
adding  together  (i) the  change in the net  asset  value of the Class A shares
during the Performance  Period, (ii) the value of cash distributions made by the
Fund to  holders  of Class A shares to the end of the  Performance  Period,  and
(iii)  the  value of  capital  gains  per  share,  if any,  paid or  payable  on
undistributed  realized  long-term  capital gains  accumulated to the end of the
Performance Period, and will be expressed as a percentage of its net asset value
per share at the beginning of the Performance  Period.  The investment record of
<PAGE>
the Index will be determined  by adding  together (i) the change in the level of
the  Index  during  the  Performance   Period  and  (ii)  the  value,   computed
consistently  with the Index,  of cash  distributions  made by  companies  whose
securities  comprise the Index accumulated to the end of the Performance Period,
and will be  expressed  as a  percentage  of the Index at the  beginning of such
Period.

After it determines any Fee Adjustment, INVESCO will determine the dollar amount
of  additional  fees or fee  reductions to be accrued for each day of a month by
multiplying  the Fee  Adjustment  by the average daily net assets of the Class A
shares of the Fund during the Performance Period and dividing that number by the
number of days in the Performance  Period.  The management fee, as adjusted,  is
accrued daily and paid monthly.

For the first twelve months of the Fund's operations, the management fee will be
charged at the Base Fee of 1.50%,  with no performance  adjustment.  Thereafter,
the Base Fee will be adjusted as described above.

If the Fund  outperforms the Russell 3000 Index by more than 2%, the Base Fee is
adjusted as follows:

        % PERFORMANCE OVER
        RUSSELL 3000 INDEX      ADVISORY FEE
        ------------------      ------------
         2%                     1.50%  (no increase in Base Fee)
         3%                     1.70%
         4%                     1.90%
         5%                     2.10%
         6%                     2.30%
         7%                     2.50%


If the Fund  underperforms  the Russell 3000 Index by more than 2%, the Base Fee
is adjusted  as  follows:

        % PERFORMANCE UNDER
        RUSSELL 3000 INDEX      ADVISORY FEE
        -------------------     ------------

        2%                      1.50%  (no decrease in Base Fee)
        3%                      1.30%
        4%                      1.10%
        5%                      0.90%
        6%                      0.70%
        7%                      0.50%

The  Russell  3000 Index  consists  of 3,000  stocks,  primarily  issued by U.S.
companies,   that   includes   issuers  of  all  sizes,   from  large  to  small
capitalization  companies. The Index is not managed;  therefore, its performance
does not reflect management fees and other expenses associated with the Fund.

If the directors  determine at some future date that another securities index is
a better  representative of the composition of the Fund than is the Russell 3000
Index,  the  directors may change the  securities  index used to compute the Fee
Adjustment.  If the directors do so, the new securities  index (the "New Index")
will be applied prospectively to determine the amount of the Fee Adjustment. The
Index will continue to be used to determine the amount of the Fee Adjustment for
that  part of the  Performance  Period  prior to the  effective  date of the New
Index.  A change  in the  Index  will be  submitted  to  shareholders  for their
approval unless the SEC determines that shareholder approval is not required.
<PAGE>
The amount the Fund will pay to INVESCO in performance  fees is not  susceptible
to estimation,  since it depends upon the future performance of the Fund and the
Index.

GLOBAL GROWTH FUND

Expenses not assumed by INVESCO are borne by the Fund. As full  compensation for
its advisory  services to the Company,  INVESCO  receives a monthly fee from the
Fund.  The fee is calculated  at the annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund's  average
net assets.

BOTH FUNDS
During the fiscal period ended August 31, 2000,  the Advantage Fund paid INVESCO
advisory fees in the dollar  amounts  shown below.  Since Global Growth Fund did
not commence investment operations until December 1, 2000, no advisory fees were
paid with respect to that Fund during that period.

ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT

INVESCO,  either  directly or through  affiliated  companies,  provides  certain
administrative, sub-accounting, and recordkeeping services to the Funds pursuant
to an Administrative Services Agreement dated June 1, 2000 with the Company.

The Administrative  Services Agreement requires INVESCO to provide the following
services to the Funds:

     o    such  sub-accounting  and recordkeeping  services and functions as are
          reasonably necessary for the operation of the Funds; and

     o    such sub-accounting,  recordkeeping,  and administrative  services and
          functions,  which may be provided  by  affiliates  of INVESCO,  as are
          reasonably  necessary for the operation of Fund  shareholder  accounts
          maintained by certain  retirement plans and employee benefit plans for
          the benefit of participants in such plans.

As full  compensation for services  provided under the  Administrative  Services
Agreement,  each Fund pays a monthly fee to INVESCO  consisting of a base fee of
$10,000 per year,  plus an additional  incremental  fee computed  daily and paid
monthly at an annual  rate of 0.045% per year of the  average net assets of each
Fund.
<PAGE>
TRANSFER AGENCY AGREEMENT

INVESCO also performs  transfer agent,  dividend  disbursing agent and registrar
services for the Funds  pursuant to a Transfer  Agency  Agreement  dated June 1,
2000 with the Company.

The Transfer Agency Agreement provides that each Fund pays INVESCO an annual fee
of $22.50 per shareholder account,  or, where applicable,  per participant in an
omnibus account.  This fee is paid monthly at the rate of 1/12 of the annual fee
and is based upon the actual number of shareholder  accounts and omnibus account
participants in each Fund at any time during each month.

FEES PAID TO INVESCO

During  the  fiscal  period  ended  August  31,  2000,  Advantage  Fund paid the
following fees to INVESCO (in some instances, prior to the absorption of certain
Fund expenses by INVESCO).  Since Global Growth Fund did not commence investment
operations  until  December 1, 2000, no fees were paid with respect to that Fund
for the fiscal period ended August 31, 2000.

     Independent  Directors,  and the members of the Funds'  committees  who are
     Independent  Directors  each  receive  compensation  for  serving  in  such
     capacities  in  addition  to  the  compensation  paid  to  all  Independent
     Directors.

(2)  Represents  estimated  benefits accrued with respect to the Defined Benefit
     Deferred  Compensation Plan discussed below, and not compensation  deferred
     at the election of the directors.

(3)  These  amounts  represent  the  Company's  share  of the  estimated  annual
     benefits  payable  by the  INVESCO  Funds upon the  directors'  retirement,
     calculated  using the current  method of allocating  director  compensation
     among the INVESCO Funds.  These estimated benefits assume retirement at age
     72. With the exception of Drs. Soll and Gramm and Messrs.  Bunch and Lewis,
     each of these  directors  has  served as a  director  of one or more of the
     funds in the INVESCO Funds for the minimum  five-year period required to be
     eligible to participate in the Defined Benefit Deferred  Compensation Plan.
     Mr. McIntyre became eligible to participate in the Defined Benefit Deferred
     Compensation  Plan as of  November  1, 1998,  and was not  included  in the
     calculation of retirement benefits until November 1, 1999.

(4)  Total as a percentage of the Company's net assets as of August 31, 2000.

(5)  Total as a  percentage  of the net  assets  of the  INVESCO  Complex  as of
     December 31, 1999.

Messrs. Brady, Healey and Williamson, as "interested persons" of the Company and
the other  INVESCO  Funds,  receive  compensation  as officers or  employees  of
INVESCO or its affiliated  companies,  and do not receive any director's fees or
other  compensation from the Company or the other funds in the INVESCO Funds for
their service as directors.

The boards of directors of the mutual funds in the INVESCO  Funds have adopted a
Defined  Benefit  Deferred  Compensation  Plan (the "Plan") for the  Independent
Directors of the funds.  Under this Plan, each director who is not an interested
person of the funds (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) and who has
served for at least five years (a "Qualified  Director") is entitled to receive,
if the Qualified Director retires upon reaching age 72 (or the retirement age of
73 or 74, if the retirement  date is extended by the board for one or two years,
but less than three years),  payment of a basic benefit for one year (the "First
Year Retirement  Benefit").  Commencing with any such director's  second year of
retirement,  commencing  with the  first  year of  retirement  of any  Qualified
Director whose  retirement  has been extended by the board for three years,  and
commencing  with  attainment of age 72 by a Qualified  Director who  voluntarily
retires prior to reaching age 72, a Qualified  Director shall receive  quarterly
payments  at an annual rate equal to 50% of the First Year  Retirement  Benefit.
These payments will continue for the remainder of the Qualified  Director's life
or ten  years,  whichever  is longer  (the  "Reduced  Benefit  Payments").  If a
Qualified Director dies or becomes disabled after age 72 and before age 74 while
still a director  of the funds,  the First Year  Retirement  Benefit and Reduced
Benefit Payments will be made to him/her or to his/her beneficiary or estate. If
a Qualified  Director  becomes disabled or dies either prior to age 72 or during
his/her 74th year while still a director of the funds,  the director will not be
entitled  to receive the First Year  Retirement  Benefit;  however,  the Reduced
Benefit Payments will be made to him/her or his/her  beneficiary or estate.  The
Plan is administered by a committee of three directors who are also participants
in the Plan and one director who is not a Plan participant. The cost of the Plan
will be allocated among the INVESCO Funds in a manner  determined to be fair and
equitable by the committee.  The Company began making payments under the Plan to
Mr.  Chabris as of October  1, 1998 and to Mr.  King as of January 1, 2000.  The
Company has no stock options or other pension or retirement plans for management
or other personnel and pays no salary or compensation to any of its officers.  A
similar plan has been adopted by INVESCO Global Health  Sciences Fund's board of
trustees. All trustees of INVESCO Global Health Sciences Fund are also directors
of the INVESCO Funds.

The  Independent  Directors have  contributed to a deferred  compensation  plan,
pursuant to which they have  deferred  receipt of a portion of the  compensation
which they would otherwise have been paid as directors of certain of the INVESCO
Funds.  Certain of the deferred  amounts have been invested in the shares of all
INVESCO Funds,  except Funds offered by INVESCO Variable Investment Funds, Inc.,
in which the directors are legally  precluded from investing.  Each  Independent
Director  may,  therefore,  be deemed to have an indirect  interest in shares of
each such INVESCO Fund,  in addition to any INVESCO Fund shares the  Independent
Director  may own  either  directly  or  beneficially.  Each of the  Independent
Directors has agreed to invest a minimum of $100,000 of his or her own resources
in  shares  of  the  INVESCO  Funds.  Compensation  contributed  to  a  deferred
compensation plan may constitute all or a portion of this $100,000 commitment.

DISTRIBUTOR

INVESCO Distributors, Inc. ("IDI"), a wholly owned subsidiary of INVESCO, is the
distributor of the Funds. IDI 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
Company's Plans of  Distribution  (collectively,  the "Plans"),  which have been
adopted by each Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act.




CLASS A. The  Company  has adopted a Master  Distribution  Plan and  Agreement -
Class A pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act relating to the Class A shares
of the Funds (the "Class A Plan"). Under the Class A Plan, Class A shares of the
Funds  pay  compensation  to IDI at an  annual  rate of 0.35%  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.  During  any  period in which a Fund is closed due to high asset
levels,  the Class A shares of the Fund will  reduce  this  payment  of 0.35% to
0.25% per annum.

The Class A Plan is designed to compensate IDI, 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 selected  dealers who furnish
continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own
Class A shares of the Funds.  Payments  can also be  directed by IDI to selected
institutions  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
selected  institutions 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  institutions'
customers' accounts.

Of the aggregate amount payable under the Class A Plan,  payments to dealers and
other  financial  institutions  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  dealers  or  financial
institutions,  are characterized as service fees.  Payments to dealers and other
financial  institutions  in excess of such  amount and  payments to IDI 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 Company with respect to the
Class A shares of a Fund.

IDI may pay  investment  dealers  or other  financial  service  firms  for share
purchases  (measured on an annual  basis) of Class A shares of all Funds sold at
net asset value to an employee  benefit  plan as follows:  1.00% of the first $2
million of such purchases,  plus 0.80% of the next $1 million of such purchases,
plus 0.50% of the next $17 million of such  purchases,  plus 0.25% of amounts in
excess of $20 million of such purchases.

CLASS B. The Company has also adopted a Master Distribution Plan and Agreement -
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 IDI 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 dealers and
other  institutions which furnish continuing  personal  shareholder  services to
their  customers who purchase and own Class B shares.  Any amounts not paid as a
service fee would  constitute  an  asset-based  sales  charge.  The Class B Plan
imposes a cap on the total amount of sales charges,  including asset-based sales
charges, that may be paid by the Company with respect to the Class B shares of a
Fund.
<PAGE>

The Class B Plan may obligate the Class B shares to continue to make payments to
IDI  following  termination  of the Class B shares' Plan with respect to Class B
shares sold by or attributable to the  distribution  efforts of IDI unless there
has been a complete  termination  of the Class B Plan (as defined in such Plan).
Additionally,  the Class B Plan expressly authorizes IDI to assign,  transfer or
pledge its rights to  payments  pursuant to the Class B Plan.  As a result,  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  Company  has adopted a Master  Distribution  Plan and  Agreement -
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  to IDI 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  IDI for  certain
promotional and other  sales-related  costs, and to implement a dealer incentive
program  which  provides for periodic  payments to selected  dealers who furnish
continuing personal shareholder services to their customers who purchase and own
Class C shares  of a Fund.  Payments  can also be  directed  by IDI to  selected
institutions  that have entered into service  agreements with respect to Class C
shares of each  Fund and that  provide  continuing  personal  services  to their
customers who own such Class C shares of a Fund.

Of the aggregate amount payable under the Class C Plan,  payments to dealers and
other  financial  institutions  that  provide  continuing  personal  shareholder
services to their  customers  who purchase and own Class C shares of a Fund,  in
amounts of up to 0.25% of the average  daily net assets of the Class C shares of
each  Fund   attributable   to  the  customers  of  such  dealers  or  financial
institutions,  are characterized as a service fee. Payments to dealers and other
financial  institutions  in excess of such  amount and  payments to IDI 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 Company with respect to the
Class C shares of a Fund.

IDI may pay sales  commissions  to  dealers  and  institutions  who 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 by the
dealer or  institution,  and will consist of a sales  commission 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.  IDI 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 IDI under the Class C Plan  which
constitutes  an  asset-based  sales charge (0.75%) is intended in part to permit
IDI to recoup a portion of on-going sales  commissions to dealers plus financing
costs,  if any.  After the first  thirteen  months,  IDI will make such payments
quarterly  to dealers and  institutions  based on the average net asset value of
Class C shares which are  attributable to shareholders  for whom the dealers and
institutions are designated as dealers of record.

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  dealers  and other  institutions  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 securities
companies and other financial institutions and organizations,  which may include
INVESCO-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
<PAGE>
selected securities companies and other financial institutions and organizations
which may  enter  into  agreements  with  IDI.  Payments  will be made by IDI to
broker-dealers  who sell shares of a Fund and may be made to banks,  savings and
loan associations and other depository institutions. Although the Glass-Steagall
Act limits the ability of certain  banks to act as  underwriters  of mutual fund
shares, INVESCO does not believe that these limitations would affect the ability
of such banks to enter into  arrangements with IDI, 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 Company nor its
investment  adviser  will  give any  preference  to  banks  or other  depository
institutions which enter into such arrangements when selecting investments to be
made by a Fund. Financial  institutions and any other person entitled to receive
compensation  for selling  Fund shares may receive  different  compensation  for
selling shares of one particular class instead of another.

During the period ended August 31, 2000, the Advantage Fund made payments to IDI
under the Class A Plan,  Class B Plan and Class C Plan in the  amounts of $0, $0
and $0,  respectively.  In addition,  as of August 31,  2000,  $0, $0, and $0 of
additional  distribution  accruals had been  incurred for the  Advantage  Fund -
Class A, Class B and Class C,  respectively,  and will be paid during the fiscal
year  ended  August 31,  2001.  Since the Global  Growth  Fund did not  commence
investment operations until November 15, 2000, that Fund made no payments to IDI
under the Plans during the period ended August 31, 2000.

For the fiscal period ended August 31, 2000, allocation of 12b-1 amounts paid by
Advantage Fund - Class A, B and C for the following categories of expenses were:

Advertising                                                      $0
Sales literature, printing, and postage                          $0
Direct Mail                                                      $0
Public Relations/Promotion                                       $0
Compensation to securities dealers and other organizations       $0
Marketing personnel                                              $0

The services  which are provided by securities  dealers and other  organizations
may vary by dealer but include,  among other things,  processing new shareholder
account applications, preparing and transmitting to the Company'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 of  directors  of the Company  cast in person at a meeting  called for the
purpose of voting on such  continuance,  including the vote of a majority of the
Independent  Directors.  A Plan  can also be  terminated  at any time by a Fund,
without penalty, if a majority of the Independent Directors,  or shareholders of
the relevant class of shares of the Fund,  vote to terminate a Plan. The Company
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 of  directors  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 Company 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.

So long as the Plans are in effect,  the selection and  nomination of persons to
serve  as  Independent  Directors  of the  Company  shall  be  committed  to the
Independent  Directors  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
<PAGE>
respective  class of  shares,  and all  material  amendments  to a Plan  must be
approved by the board of directors  of the Company,  including a majority of the
Independent  Directors.  Under the agreement  implementing  the Plans,  IDI or a
Fund,  the  latter by vote of a  majority  of the  Independent  Directors,  or a
majority of the holders of the  relevant  class of a Fund's  outstanding  voting
securities,  may terminate such agreement  without penalty upon 30 days' written
notice to the other party.  No further  payments  will be made by a 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  IDI  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 directors, including
a majority of the Independent  Directors,  by a vote cast in person at a meeting
called for such purpose.  These new arrangements might or might not be with IDI.
On a quarterly basis, the directors  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 directors  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 Company  directors 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  directors of the
Company who are also officers either of IDI or other  companies  affiliated with
IDI. The benefits which the Company  believes will be reasonably  likely to flow
to a Fund and its shareholders under the Plans include the following:

     o    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;

     o    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

     o    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 INVESCO's revenues
could allow INVESCO and its affiliated companies:

     o    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);

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

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

(1)  There is no sales charge on purchases of $1,000,000 or more;  however, IDI
may pay a dealer  concession  and/or advance a service fee on such transactions
as set forth below.

IDI may elect to re-allow  the entire  initial  sales  charge to dealers for all
sales with  respect to which  orders  are  placed  with IDI 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 Securities Act
of 1933.

In addition to amounts paid to dealers as a dealer concession out of the initial
sales charge paid by investors, IDI may, from time to time, at its expense or as
an  expense  for  which it may be  compensated  under a  distribution  plan,  if
applicable,  pay a bonus or other consideration or incentive to dealers who sell
a minimum  dollar  amount of the shares of the INVESCO  Funds during a specified
period of time. At the option of the dealer,  such  incentives may take the form
of payment for travel expenses,  including lodging,  incurred in connection with
trips  taken by  qualifying  registered  representatives  and their  families to
places within or outside the United States.  The total amount of such additional
bonus  payments  or other  consideration  shall not  exceed  0.25% of the public
offering price of the shares sold. Any such bonus or incentive programs will not
change the price paid by investors  for the  purchase of a Fund's  shares or the
amount a Fund will  receive as  proceeds  from such  sales.  Dealers may not use
sales of a Fund's  shares to qualify for any  incentives to the extent that such
incentives may be prohibited by the laws of any state.

IDI may make payments to dealers and institutions that are dealers of record for
purchases  of $1 million  or more of Class A shares  which are sold at net asset
value and are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge as follows: 1.00% of
the first $2 million of such purchase, plus 0.80% of the next $1 million of such
purchase,  plus 0.50% of the next $17  million of such  purchase,  plus 0.25% of
amounts in excess of $20 million of such purchase.

IDI may pay sales  commissions  to dealers  and  institutions  that sell Class B
shares of the Funds at the time of such sales.  Payments with respect to Class B
shares will equal 4.00% of the purchase  price of the Class B shares sold by the
dealer or institution,  and will consist of a sales commission equal to 3.75% of
the purchase  price of the Class B shares sold plus an advance of the first year
service fee of 0.25% with respect to such shares. The portion of the payments to
IDI under the Class B Plan which constitutes an asset-based sales charge (0.75%)
is intended in part to permit IDI to recoup a portion of such sales  commissions
plus financing costs.
<PAGE>
IDI may pay sales  commissions  to dealers  and  institutions  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 by the
dealer or  institution,  and will consist of a sales  commission of 0.75% of the
purchase  price of the Class C shares  sold plus an  advance  of the first  year
service fee of 0.25% with respect to such  shares.  IDI will retain all payments
received  by it  relating  to Class C shares  for the first  year after they are
purchased.  The  portion  of the  payments  to IDI under the Class C Plan  which
constitutes  an  asset-based  sales charge (0.75%) is intended in part to permit
IDI to recoup a portion of on-going sales  commissions to dealers plus financing
costs, if any. After the first full year, IDI will make such payments  quarterly
to dealers  and  institutions  based on the  average  net asset value of Class C
shares  which  are  attributable  to  shareholders  for  whom  the  dealers  and
institutions are designated as dealers of record. These commissions are not paid
on sales to investors  who may not pay the CDSC and in  circumstances  where IDI
grants an exemption on particular transactions.

IDI may pay  investment  dealers  or other  financial  service  firms  for share
purchases  (measured on an annual  basis) of Class A shares of all Funds sold at
net asset value to an employee  benefit  plan as follows:  1.00% of the first $2
million of such purchases,  plus 0.80% of the next $1 million of such purchases,
plus 0.50% of the next $17 million of such  purchases,  plus 0.25% of amounts in
excess of $20 million of such purchases.

REDUCTIONS IN INITIAL SALES CHARGES

Reductions  in the  initial  sales  charges  shown in the  sales  charges  table
(quantity  discounts)  apply  to  purchases  of  shares  of the  Funds  that are
otherwise  subject to an initial sales charge,  provided that such purchases are
made by a "purchaser" as hereinafter defined.

The term "purchaser" means:

     o    an individual and his or her spouse and children,  including any trust
          established  exclusively  for the  benefit  of any such  person;  or a
          pension, profit-sharing, or other benefit plan established exclusively
          for the  benefit  of any such  person,  such as an IRA,  Roth  IRA,  a
          single-participant money purchase/profit sharing plan or an individual
          participant in a 403(b) Plan (unless such 403(b) plan qualifies as the
          purchaser as defined below);

     o    a 403(b)  plan,  the  employer/sponsor  of  which  is an  organization
          described  under  Section  501(c)(3) of the  Internal  Revenue Code of
          1986, as amended (the "Code"), if:

          a.   the   employer/sponsor   must   submit   contributions   for  all
               participating  employees  in a  single  contribution  transmittal
               (i.e.,  the Funds will not accept  contributions  submitted  with
               respect to individual participants);

          b.   each  transmittal  must be  accompanied by a single check or wire
               transfer; and

          c.   all  new  participants  must  be  added  to the  403(b)  plan  by
               submitting an application on behalf of each new participant  with
               the contribution transmittal;

     o    a trustee or fiduciary purchasing for a single trust, estate or single
          fiduciary  account  (including  a  pension,  profit-sharing  or  other
          employee  benefit trust  created  pursuant to a plan  qualified  under
          Section  401 of the  Code)  and 457  plans,  although  more  than  one
          beneficiary or participant is involved;
<PAGE>
     o    a  Simplified  Employee  Pension  (SEP),  Salary  Reduction  and other
          Elective  Simplified  Employee  Pension  account  (SAR-SEP) or Savings
          Incentive  Match  Plans for  Employees  IRA  (SIMPLE  IRA),  where the
          employer has notified IDI in writing that all of its related  employee
          SEP, SAR-SEP or SIMPLE IRA accounts should be linked; or

     o    any other  organized  group of persons,  whether  incorporated or not,
          provided  the  organization  has been in  existence  for at least  six
          months and has some  purpose  other than the purchase at a discount of
          redeemable securities of a registered investment company.

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.  IDI  reserves  the  right to  determine  whether  any
purchaser is entitled,  by virtue of the  foregoing  definition,  to the reduced
sales  charge.  No person or entity may  distribute  shares of the INVESCO Funds
without payment of the applicable sales charge other than to persons or entities
that qualify for a reduction in the sales charge as provided herein.

1.  LETTERS OF INTENT.  A  purchaser,  as  previously  defined,  may pay reduced
initial  sales  charges by  completing  the  appropriate  section of the account
application and by fulfilling a Letter of Intent ("LOI").  The LOI confirms such
purchaser's  intention  as to the total  investment  to be made in shares of the
Funds  (except for Class B and Class C shares of the Funds) within the following
13 consecutive months. By marking the LOI section on the account application and
by  signing  the  account  application,  the  purchaser  indicates  that  he/she
understands  and  agrees to the terms of the LOI and is bound by the  provisions
described below.

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, as
described  under "Sales Charges and Dealer  Concessions."  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.  The offering
price may be further reduced as described 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. At any time  during the  13-month
period after meeting the original obligation,  a purchaser may revise his or her
intended  investment  amount upward by submitting a written and signed  request.
Such a revision will not change the original expiration date. 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  investor  will pay the  increased  amount  of sales  charge  as
described  below.  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.  The transfer agent will process
necessary  adjustments  upon  the  expiration  or  completion  date of the  LOI.
Purchases  made more than 90 days before  signing an LOI will be applied  toward
completion of the LOI based on the value of the shares  purchased  calculated at
the public offering price on the effective date of the LOI.

To assure  compliance  with the  provisions  of the 1940 Act, out of the initial
purchase (or  subsequent  purchases if necessary) the transfer agent will escrow
in the form of shares an appropriate dollar amount (computed to the nearest full
share).  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  amount  actually  purchased.  If the
<PAGE>
purchaser does not pay such  difference  within 20 days of the expiration  date,
he/she  irrevocably  constitutes  and  appoints  the  transfer  agent as his/her
attorney  to  surrender  for  redemption  any or all  shares,  to  make  up such
difference within 60 days of the expiration date.

If at any time before completing the LOI Program, the purchaser wishes to cancel
the  agreement,  he/she must give  written  notice to IDI. If at any time before
completing  the LOI  Program  the  purchaser  requests  the  transfer  agent  to
liquidate  or  transfer   beneficial   ownership  of  his/her  total  shares,  a
cancellation  of the LOI will  automatically  be  effected.  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.

2. RIGHTS OF ACCUMULATION. A "purchaser" as previously defined, may also qualify
for  reduced  initial  sales  charges  based  upon  such  purchaser's   existing
investment in Class A shares of the Funds at the time of the proposed  purchase.
To  determine  whether a reduced  initial  sales  charge  applies  to a proposed
purchase,  IDI takes into account not only the money which is invested upon such
proposed  purchase,  but also the value of all Class A shares of the Funds owned
by such  purchaser,  calculated at the then current public  offering price. If a
purchaser so qualifies  for a reduced  sales  charge,  the reduced  sales charge
applies  to the total  amount of money then being  invested  by such  purchaser,
calculated  at the  then  current  public  offering  price,  and not just to the
portion that exceeds the breakpoint  above which a reduced sales charge applies.
For example,  if a purchaser already owns Class A shares with a value of $20,000
and wishes to invest an  additional  $20,000  in Class A shares,  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 IDI 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.

PURCHASES  AT NET  ASSET  VALUE.  Purchases  of shares of the Funds at net asset
value  (without  payment of an initial  sales  charge) may be made in connection
with:  (a) the  reinvestment  of dividends and  distributions  from a Fund;  (b)
exchanges of shares of certain funds; (c) use of the reinstatement privilege; or
(d) a merger, consolidation or acquisition of assets of a fund.

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:

     o    INVESCO and its affiliates, or their clients;

     o    Any current or retired  officer,  director or employee (and members of
          their  immediate  family) of INVESCO,  its  affiliates  or the INVESCO
          Funds and any foundation,  trust or employee  benefit plan established
          exclusively for the benefit of, or by, such persons;

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

     o    Purchases through approved fee-based programs;

     o    Employee  benefit plans designated as purchasers as defined above, and
          non-qualified  plans offered in  conjunction  therewith,  provided the
          initial investment in the plan(s) is at least $1 million;  the sponsor
          signs a $1 million  LOI; the  employer-sponsored  plan(s) has at least
<PAGE>
          100 eligible employees;  or all plan transactions are executed through
          a single  omnibus  account and the  financial  institution  or service
          organization  has entered  into the  appropriate  agreements  with the
          distributor.  Section  403(b) plans  sponsored  by public  educational
          institutions  are not eligible for a sales charge  exception  based on
          the  aggregate  investment  made by the plan or the number of eligible
          employees. Purchases of the Funds by such plans are subject to initial
          sales charges; and

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

As used above,  immediate  family  includes an individual and his or her spouse,
children, parents and parents of spouse.

CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE EXCEPTIONS

CDSCs will not apply to the following:

     o    Redemptions following the death or post-purchase disability of (1) any
          registered  shareholders  on an  account  or (2) a settlor of a living
          trust,  of shares  held in the account at the time of death or initial
          determination of post-purchase disability;

     o    Certain  distributions from individual  retirement  accounts,  Section
          403(b) retirement plans,  Section 457 deferred  compensation plans and
          Section  401  qualified  plans,  where  redemptions  result  from  (i)
          required minimum  distributions to plan  participants or beneficiaries
          who are age 70-1/2 or older,  and only with respect to that portion of
          such   distributions   that  does  not  exceed  10%  annually  of  the
          participant's or  beneficiary's  account value in a Fund; (ii) in kind
          transfers of assets where the participant or beneficiary  notifies the
          distributor  of the  transfer  not  later  than the time the  transfer
          occurs;  (iii)  tax-free  rollovers  or transfers of assets to another
          plan of the type described above invested in Class B or Class C shares
          of a Fund; (iv) tax-free returns of excess contributions or returns of
          excess  deferral  amounts;  and  (v)  distributions  on the  death  or
          disability  (as  defined  in the  Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986,  as
          amended) of the participant or beneficiary;

     o    Liquidation  by a Fund when the account  value falls below the minimum
          required account size of $250;

     o    Investment account(s) of INVESCO; and

     o    Class C shares if the investor's  dealer of record  notifies IDI prior
          to the time of investment that the dealer waives the payment otherwise
          payable to him.

Upon the  redemption  of Class A shares  purchased  in  amounts of $1 million or
more, no CDSC will be applied in the following situations:

     o    Shares held more than 18 months;

     o    Redemptions  from  employee  benefit  plans  designated  as  qualified
          purchasers,  as defined above, where the redemptions are in connection
          with employee  terminations or withdrawals,  provided the total amount
          invested in the plan is at least  $1,000,000;  the sponsor  signs a $1
          million LOI; or the employer-sponsored  plan has at least 100 eligible
          employees;  provided,  however,  that 403(b) plans sponsored by public
          educational  institutions  shall  qualify  for the CDSC  waiver on the
          basis of the value of each plan participant's  aggregate investment in
          a Fund, and not on the aggregate investment made by the plan or on the
          number of eligible employees;
<PAGE>
     o    Private foundations or endowment funds;

     o    Redemption  of shares by the  investor  where  the  investor's  dealer
          waives the  amounts  otherwise  payable to it by the  distributor  and
          notifies the distributor prior to the time of investment; and

     o    Shares  acquired by exchange  from Class A shares of a Fund unless the
          shares acquired are redeemed within 18 months of the original purchase
          of Class A shares.

HOW TO PURCHASE AND REDEEM SHARES

A  complete  description  of the  manner  by which  shares  of the  Funds may be
purchased appears in the Prospectuses under the caption "How To Buy Shares."

The sales charge  normally  deducted on purchases of Class A shares of the Funds
is used to compensate IDI and participating  dealers for their expenses incurred
in  connection  with the  distribution  of such  shares.  Since  there is little
expense  associated with unsolicited orders placed directly with IDI by persons,
who  because  of their  relationship  with the  Funds  or with  INVESCO  and its
affiliates,  are familiar with the Funds, or whose programs for purchase involve
little expense (e.g.,  because of the size of the  transaction  and  shareholder
records  required),  IDI believes that it is appropriate  and in the Funds' best
interests that such persons be permitted to purchase Class A shares of the Funds
through  IDI without  payment of a sales  charge.  The persons who may  purchase
Class A shares of the Funds  without a sales  charge are set forth  herein under
the  Caption  "Reductions  in Initial  Sales  Charges -  Purchases  at Net Asset
Value."

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

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

Information  concerning  redemption  of a  Fund's  shares  is set  forth  in the
Prospectuses  under the caption "How To Sell Shares." Shares of the Funds may be
redeemed  directly  through IDI or through  any dealer who has  entered  into an
agreement with IDI. In addition to the Funds'  obligation to redeem shares,  IDI
may also repurchase shares as an accommodation to the shareholders.  To effect a
repurchase,  those dealers who have executed Selected Dealer Agreements with IDI
must phone orders to the order desk of the Funds at 1-800-328-2234 and guarantee
delivery of all required  documents in good order.  A repurchase  is effected at
the net asset value of each Fund next  determined  after such order is received.
Such  arrangement is subject to timely receipt by IDI 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 the Funds or by IDI  (other  than any  applicable  CDSC) when
shares are  redeemed or  repurchased,  dealers may charge a fair service fee for
handling the  transaction.  INVESCO intends to redeem all shares of the Funds in
cash.

The right of redemption  may be suspended or the date of payment  postponed when
(a) trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("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.

LEGAL COUNSEL

The firm of  Kirkpatrick & Lockhart LLP, 1800  Massachusetts  Avenue,  N.W., 2nd
Floor,  Washington,  D.C., is legal  counsel for the Company.  The firm of Moye,
Giles,  O'Keefe,  Vermeire & Gorrell LLP, 1225 17th Street,  Suite 2900, Denver,
Colorado, acts as special counsel to the Company.

BROKERAGE ALLOCATION AND OTHER PRACTICES

As the investment  adviser to the Funds,  INVESCO places orders for the purchase
and sale of  securities  with  broker-dealers  based upon an  evaluation  of the
financial   responsibility  of  the   broker-dealers  and  the  ability  of  the
broker-dealers to effect transactions at the best available prices.

While INVESCO seeks reasonably  competitive  commission  rates, the Funds do not
necessarily pay the lowest commission or spread available.  INVESCO is permitted
to, and does, consider qualitative factors in addition to price in the selection
of brokers.  Among other  things,  INVESCO  considers  the quality of executions
obtained  on a Fund's  portfolio  transactions,  viewed  in terms of the size of
transactions,  prevailing market  conditions in the security  purchased or sold,
and general  economic and market  conditions.  INVESCO has found that a broker's
consistent ability to execute transactions is at least as important as the price
the broker charges for those services.

In seeking to ensure that the  commissions  charged a Fund are  consistent  with
prevailing and  reasonable  commissions,  INVESCO  monitors  brokerage  industry
practices and commissions charged by broker-dealers on transactions effected for
other institutional investors like the Funds.

Consistent  with the  standard  of  seeking  to obtain  favorable  execution  on
portfolio  transactions,  INVESCO  may  select  brokers  that  provide  research
services to INVESCO and the Company,  as well as other INVESCO  mutual funds and
other accounts managed by INVESCO.  Research  services  include  statistical and
analytical  reports  relating to issuers,  industries,  securities  and economic
factors and  trends,  which may be of  assistance  or value to INVESCO in making
<PAGE>
informed  investment  decisions.  Research  services  prepared and  furnished by
brokers  through  which a Fund effects  securities  transactions  may be used by
INVESCO in servicing  all of its accounts and not all such  services may be used
by INVESCO in connection  with a particular  Fund.  Conversely,  a Fund receives
benefits  of  research  acquired  through the  brokerage  transactions  of other
clients of INVESCO.

In order to obtain reliable trade execution and research  services,  INVESCO may
utilize brokers that charge higher  commissions  than other brokers would charge
for the same transaction.  This practice is known as "paying up." However,  even
when paying up, INVESCO is obligated to obtain  favorable  execution of a Fund's
transactions.

Portfolio   transactions  also  may  be  effected  through  broker-dealers  that
recommend the Funds to their clients,  or that act as agent in the purchase of a
Fund's shares for their  clients.  When a number of  broker-dealers  can provide
comparable  best price and  execution on a particular  transaction,  INVESCO may
consider  the sale of a Fund's  shares by a  broker-dealer  in  selecting  among
qualified broker-dealers.

Certain of the INVESCO Funds utilize fund  brokerage  commissions to pay custody
fees for each  respective  fund.  This program  requires that the  participating
funds receive favorable execution.

The aggregate dollar amount of brokerage commissions and underwriting  discounts

CAPITAL STOCK

The Company is authorized to issue up to two billion shares of common stock with
a par value of $0.01 per share. As of October 31, 2000, the following  shares of
the Funds were outstanding:
<PAGE>
      Advantage Fund - Class A                  8,135,333
      Advantage Fund - Class B                  2,067,084
      Advantage Fund - Class C                  1,709,798
      Global Growth Fund - Class A                      0
      Global Growth Fund - Class B                      0
      Global Growth Fund - Class C                      0

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, 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 Class A, Class B and Class C
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  non-assessable.  Other than
the  automatic  conversion  of Class B shares  to Class A  shares,  there are no
conversion  rights.  The  board of  directors  has the  authority  to  designate
additional  classes of common stock without seeking the approval of shareholders
and may classify and reclassify any authorized but unissued shares.

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

All shares of the Company  have equal  voting  rights based on one vote for each
share owned.  The Company 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 Company
or  as  may  be  required  by  applicable  law  or  the  Company's  Articles  of
Incorporation,   the  board  of  directors   will  call   special   meetings  of
shareholders.

Directors  may  be  removed  by  action  of the  holders  of a  majority  of the
outstanding  shares  of the  Company.  The Funds  will  assist  shareholders  in
communicating with other shareholders as required by the 1940 Act.

Fund shares have noncumulative  voting rights, which means that the holders of a
majority of the shares of the Company  voting for the  election of  directors of
the  Company  can elect 100% of the  directors  if they choose to do so. If that
occurs, the holders of the remaining shares voting for the election of directors
will not be able to elect any  person  or  persons  to the  board of  directors.
Directors  may  be  removed  by  action  of the  holders  of a  majority  of the
outstanding shares of the Company.

TAX CONSEQUENCES OF OWNING SHARES OF A FUND

Each  Fund  intends  to  conduct  its   business  and  satisfy  the   applicable
diversification  of assets,  distribution  and source of income  requirements to
qualify as a regulated  investment  company  under  Subchapter M of the Internal
Revenue  Code of 1986,  as amended.  Each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated
investment company during its current fiscal year. It is the policy of each Fund
to distribute all investment  company taxable income and net capital gains. As a
result of this policy and the Funds'  qualification  as a  regulated  investment
company,  it is anticipated that neither of the Funds will pay federal income or
excise  taxes and that all of the classes of the Funds will be accorded  conduit
or "pass  through"  treatment for federal  income tax purposes.  Therefore,  any
<PAGE>
taxes  that a Fund  would  ordinarily  owe  are  paid by its  shareholders  on a
pro-rata basis.  If a Fund does not distribute all of its net investment  income
or net  capital  gains,  it will be subject  to income  and excise  taxes on the
amount  that is not  distributed.  If a Fund  does not  qualify  as a  regulated
investment  company,  it  will  be  subject  to  income  tax on  all of its  net
investment income and net capital gains at the corporate tax rates.

Dividends paid by a Fund from net investment  income as well as distributions of
net  realized  short-term  capital  gains and net  realized  gains from  certain
foreign  currency  transactions  are taxable for federal  income tax purposes as
ordinary income to shareholders.  After the end of each calendar year, the Funds
send  shareholders  information  regarding the amount and character of dividends
paid in the year,  including the dividends  eligible for the  dividends-received
deduction  for  corporations.  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.

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  gains  and  losses  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.  A capital  gain
distribution  consists of long-term capital gains which are taxed at the capital
gains rate. Short-term capital gains are included with income from dividends and
interest  as  ordinary  income and are 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.  Distributions  by a Fund of net capital gains are, for
federal income tax purposes,  taxable to the shareholder as a long-term  capital
gain  regardless  of how long a  shareholder  has held shares of the  particular
Fund. Such distributions are not eligible for the dividends-received  deduction.
After the end of each calendar year, the Funds send  information to shareholders
regarding the amount and character of distributions paid during the year.

All dividends and other  distributions  are taxable  income to the  shareholder,
whether or not such  dividends and  distributions  are  reinvested in additional
shares or paid in cash.  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.  The net asset  value of shares of a Fund  reflects
accrued net investment  income and  undistributed  realized  capital and foreign
currency gains; therefore,  when a distribution is declared, the net asset value
is reduced by the amount of the distribution.  If shares of a Fund are purchased
shortly  before a  distribution,  the full price for the shares will be paid and
some portion of the price may then be returned to the  shareholder  as a taxable
dividend or capital gain. However, the net asset value per share will be reduced
by the amount of the distribution,  which would reduce any gain (or increase any
loss) for tax purposes on any subsequent redemption of shares.

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 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
<PAGE>
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 the  Fund's  investment  company  taxable  income to be
distributed to its shareholders.

INVESCO 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  INVESCO  will  be  computed  using  the
single-category  average cost  method,  although  neither  INVESCO nor the Funds
recommend any  particular  method of determining  cost basis.  Other methods may
result in different tax consequences. If you have reported gains or losses for a
Fund in past years, you must continue to use the method  previously used, unless
you apply to the IRS for permission to change methods. 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.

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.

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 net capital gains 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 for income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended,  does not entail government  supervision of management
or investment policies.

PERFORMANCE

To keep shareholders and potential investors informed, INVESCO will occasionally
advertise  the Funds' total  return for one-,  five-,  and ten-year  periods (or
since  inception).  All  advertisements  of the Funds will  disclose the maximum
sales charge (including deferred sales charges) imposed on purchases of a Fund's
shares.  If any advertised  performance  data does not reflect the maximum sales
charge (if any), such  advertisement will disclose that the sales charge has not
been deducted in computing the  performance  data,  and that, if reflected,  the
maximum sales charge would reduce the performance quoted.
<PAGE>
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 initial sales charge at the time
of purchase.  Standardized  total return for Class B and Class C shares reflects
the deduction of the maximum  applicable  contingent  deferred sales charge on a
redemption of shares held for the period.  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 has 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 or
Class C contingent  deferred sales charge into account.  Excluding sales charges
from a total return calculation produces a higher total return figure.

More  information  about the Funds' recent and  historical  performance  will be
contained in the  Company's  Annual Report to  Shareholders.  You can get a free
copy by calling or writing to INVESCO using the  telephone  number or address on
the back cover of the Funds' Prospectuses.

The Funds may participate in the Initial Public Offering  ("IPO") market,  and a
significant portion of a Fund's returns may be attributable to its investment in
IPOs,  which have a magnified impact due to the Fund's small asset base. If this
occurs,  there is no guarantee that as a Fund's assets grow,  they will continue
to experience substantially similar performance by investing in IPOs.

When we quote mutual fund rankings published by Lipper Inc., we may compare each
Fund to others in its appropriate  Lipper  category,  as well as the broad-based
Lipper general fund groupings.  These rankings allow you to compare the Funds to
their peers.  Other  independent  financial  media also produce  performance- or
service-related comparisons, which you may see in our promotional materials.

Performance  figures are based on  historical  earnings  and are not intended to

Average  annual total return  performance is not provided for Global Growth Fund
since it was not offered  until  December 1, 2000.  Average  annual total return
performance is 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)[exponential n] = ERV

where:      P = a hypothetical initial payment of $10,000
            T = average annual total return
            n = number of years
            ERV = ending redeemable value of initial payment

The average  annual  total return  performance  figures  will be  determined  by
solving the above formula for "T" for each time period indicated.

In conjunction  with performance  reports,  comparative data between that Fund's
performance for a given period and other types of investment vehicles, including
certificates  of  deposit,   may  be  provided  to  prospective   investors  and
shareholders.

In conjunction with performance reports and/or analyses of shareholder  services
for a Fund,  comparative data between that Fund's performance for a given period
and  recognized  indices  of  investment  results  for the same  period,  and/or
assessments  of  the  quality  of  shareholder   service,  may  be  provided  to
shareholders. Such indices include indices provided by Dow Jones & Company, S&P,
Lipper  Inc.,  Lehman  Brothers,  National  Association  of  Securities  Dealers
Automated Quotations,  Frank Russell Company,  Value Line Investment Survey, the
American  Stock  Exchange,   Morgan  Stanley  Capital  International,   Wilshire

Nikkei Stock Average and Deutcher Aktienindex, all of which are unmanaged market
indicators.  In addition,  rankings,  ratings,  and  comparisons  of  investment
performance  and/or  assessments of the quality of  shareholder  service made by
independent  sources  may  be  used  in  advertisements,   sales  literature  or
shareholder  reports,  including reprints of, or selections from,  editorials or

APPENDIX A

BOND RATINGS

The following is a description of Moody's and S&P's bond ratings:

MOODY'S CORPORATE BOND RATINGS

Aaa - Bonds  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 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.
They 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 appear somewhat larger than in Aaa securities.

A - Bonds 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 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 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 rated B generally lack  characteristics  of the desirable  investment.
Assurance of interest and principal  payments or  maintenance  of other terms of
the contract over any longer period of time may be small.

Caa - Bonds  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.

<PAGE>

S&P CORPORATE BOND RATINGS

AAA - This is the  highest  rating  assigned  by  Standard  &  Poor's  to a debt
obligation  and  indicates an extremely  strong  capacity to pay  principal  and
interest.

AA - Bonds rated AA also qualify as high-quality debt  obligations.  Capacity to
pay principal and interest is very strong, and in the majority of instances they
differ from AAA issues only in small degree.

A - Bonds rated A have a strong capacity to pay principal and interest, although
they are  somewhat  more  susceptible  to the  adverse  effects  of  changes  in
circumstances and economic conditions than bonds in higher rated categories.

BBB - Bonds  rated BBB are  regarded  as having an  adequate  capability  to pay
principal  and  interest.  Whereas they  normally  exhibit  adequate  protection
parameters,  adverse  economic  conditions  or changing  circumstances  are more
likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay principal and interest for bonds in
this category than for bonds in higher rated categories.

BB - Bonds  rated BB have less  near-term  vulnerability  to default  than other
speculative issues.  However,  they face major ongoing uncertainties or exposure
to adverse  business,  financial,  or  economic  conditions  which could lead to
inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments.

B - Bonds rated B have a greater vulnerability to default but currently have the
capacity to meet interest payments and principal  repayments.  Adverse business,
financial,  or economic conditions will likely impair capacity or willingness to
pay interest and repay principal.

CCC - Bonds rated CCC have a currently identifiable vulnerability to default and
are dependent upon favorable  business,  financial,  and economic  conditions to
meet timely  payment of interest  and  repayment of  principal.  In the event of
adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, they are not likely to have
the capacity to pay interest and repay principal.
