(1)Because the Funds pay 12b-1 distribution fees which are based upon each
Fund's assets, if you own shares of a 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.
<PAGE>
(2)Each Fund's actual Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses were lower than
the figures shown, because their custodian fees were reduced under an
expense offset arrangement.
(3)The expense information presented in the table has been restated from
the financials to reflect a change in the administrative services and
transfer agency fees.
(4)Certain expenses of International Blue Chip Value, Latin American
Growth and Pacific Basin Funds were absorbed voluntarily by INVESCO and
the applicable sub-adviser in order to ensure that expenses for
European Fund, International Blue Chip Value Fund, Latin American
Growth Fund and Pacific Basin Fund do not exceed 2.00% of each Fund's
average net assets pursuant to commitments between those Funds and
INVESCO and/or the applicable subadviser. These commitments may be
changed at any time following consultation with the board of directors.
After absorption, International Blue Chip Value Fund's Other Expenses
and Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses were 1.10% and 2.10%,
respectively, of the Fund's average net assets; Latin American Growth
Fund's Other Expenses and Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses were
1.20% and 2.20%, respectively, of the Fund's average net assets; and
Pacific Basin Fund's Other Expenses and Total Annual Fund Operating
Expenses were 1.12% and 2.12%, respectively, of the Fund's average net
assets.
The section of the Prospectus entitled "Fees And Expenses - Example" is amended
to (1) delete the second paragraph and (2) substitute the following in its
place:
The Example assumes that you invested $10,000 in a Fund for the time
periods indicated and redeemed all of your shares at the end of each
period. The Example also assumes that your investment had a hypothetical
5% return each year and that a Fund's operating expenses remained the
same. Although the actual costs and performance of a Fund may be higher or
lower, based on these assumptions your costs would have been:
1 YEAR 3 YEARS 5 YEARS 10 YEARS
European Fund $ 165 $ 511 $ 881 $1,922
International Blue Chip Value Fund $ 268 $ 823 $ 1,405 $2,983
Latin American Growth Fund $ 376 $ 1,143 $ 1,930 $3,984

The section of the Funds' Prospectus entitled "How To Buy Shares" is amended to
