        o       You must meet the minimum purchase requirements for the AIM
                Fund into which you are exchanging;

        o       Shares of the AIM Fund you wish to acquire must be available
                for sale in your state of residence;

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

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

        o       Shares must have been held for at least one day prior to the
                exchange; and

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

        Beginning September 15, 1999, the following exchange condition will
        apply:

        o       Because excessive short-term trading or market-timing activity
                can hurt fund performance, you are limited to a maximum of
                10 exchanges per calendar year. If you exceed that limit, or
                if an AIM Fund or the distributor determines, in its sole
                discretion, that your short-term trading is excessive or
                that you are engaging in market-timing activity, it may
                reject any additional exchange orders. An exchange is the
                movement out of (redemption) one AIM Fund and into
                (purchase) another AIM Fund."
