AMENDMENT NO. 2
TO
AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS OF SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS TRUST
(a Delaware Business Trust)
Adopted effective June 14, 2000
This Amendment No. 2 to the Amended and Restated Bylaws of Short-Term
Investments Trust amends the Amended and Restated Bylaws initially adopted
effective November 5, 1998, as amended (the "Bylaws").
1. Article IV, Section 8 is hereby restated in its entirety to read as
follows:
"Section 8. Quorum. The holders of one-third of the Outstanding
Shares entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by
proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the Shareholders
for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by
applicable law or by the Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, with respect to any matter which by applicable law or by
the Agreement requires the separate approval of one or more Classes
or Portfolios, the holders of one-third of the Outstanding Shares of
each such Class or Portfolio (or of such Classes or Portfolios voting
together as a single class) entitled to vote on the matter shall
constitute a quorum. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or
represented at any meeting of the Shareholders, the vote of the
holders of a majority of Shares cast shall have power to adjourn the
meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at
the meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented. At such
adjourned meeting, at which a quorum shall be present or represented,
any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at
the meeting as originally notified."
2. A new Article IV, Section 14 is hereby added to the Bylaws to read in
full as follows:
"Section 14. Record Date. The Board of Trustees may set a record date
for the purpose of making any proper determination with respect to
Shareholders, including, but not limited to, which Shareholders are
entitled to notice of a meeting or to vote at a meeting. The record
date may not be prior to the close of business on the day the record
date is fixed and shall be not more than 90 days before the date on
which the action requiring the determination will be taken."
3. A new Article IV, Section 15 is hereby added to the Bylaws to read in
full as follows:
"Section 15. Adjournments. A meeting of Shareholders convened on the
date for which it was called may be adjourned from time to time
without further notice to Shareholders to a date not more than 120
days after the original record date. A meeting of Shareholders may
not be adjourned for more than 120 days after the original record
date for such meeting without giving the Shareholders notice of the
adjournment and the new meeting date."
