FIFTH AMENDED AND RESTATED MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT (Securities Lending Administrative Fee Waiver)
This Fifth Amended and Restated Memorandum of Agreement is entered into as of the dates
indicated on Exhibit “A” between AIM Counselor Series Trust, AIM Equity Funds, AIM Funds Group, AIM
Growth Series, AIM International Mutual Funds, AIM Investment Funds, AIM Investment Securities
Funds, AIM Sector Funds, AIM Tax-Exempt Funds, AIM Treasurer’s Series Trust, AIM Variable Insurance
Funds and Short-Term Investments Trust (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), on behalf of
the portfolios listed on Exhibit “A” to this Memorandum of Agreement (the “Portfolios”), and
Invesco Advisers, Inc. (“Invesco”), successor by merger to Invesco Aim Advisors, Inc..
For and in consideration of the mutual terms and agreements set forth herein and other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Funds
and Invesco agree as follows:
| 1. | Each Fund, for itself and its Portfolios, and Invesco agree that until the expiration date, if any, of the commitment set forth on the attached Exhibit “A” occurs, as such Exhibit “A” is amended from time to time, Invesco has agreed that it will not charge any administrative fee under each Portfolio’s advisory agreement in connection with securities lending activities without prior approval from the Portfolio’s Board (such agreement is referred to as the “Waiver”). | ||
| 2. | Neither a Fund nor Invesco may remove or amend the Waiver to a Fund’s detriment prior to requesting and receiving the approval of the Portfolio’s Board to remove or amend the Waiver. Invesco will not have any right to reimbursement of any amount so waived. |
Unless a Fund, by vote of its Board of Trustees terminates the Waiver, or a Fund and Invesco
are unable to reach an agreement on the amount of the Waiver to which the Fund and Invesco desire
to be bound, the Waiver will continue indefinitely with respect to such Fund. Exhibit “A” will be
amended to reflect the new date through which a Fund and Invesco agree to be bound.
It is expressly agreed that the obligations of the Trusts hereunder shall not be binding upon
any of the Trustees, shareholders, nominees, officers, agents or employees of the Trusts
personally, but shall only bind the assets and property of the Funds, as provided in each Trust’s
Agreement and Declaration of Trust. The execution and delivery of this Memorandum of Agreement
have been authorized by the Trustees of each Trust, and this Memorandum of Agreement has been
executed and delivered by an authorized officer of each Trust acting as such; neither such
authorization by such Trustees nor such execution and delivery by such officer shall be deemed to
have been made by any of them individually or to impose any liability on any of them personally,
but shall bind only the assets and property of the Funds, as provided in each Trust’s Agreement and
Declaration of Trust.
Nothing in this Memorandum of Agreement is intended to affect any other memorandum of
agreement executed by any Fund or Invesco with respect to any other fee waivers, expense
reimbursements and/or expense limitations.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Fund, on behalf of itself and its Portfolios listed in Exhibit “A” to
this Memorandum of Agreement, and Invesco have entered into this Memorandum of Agreement as of the
dates indicated on Exhibit “A”.
