Dear Fellow Shareholders:
Although
the global markets have improved since their lows of 2009, they
remain challenging as governments around the world work to ensure the
recovery remains on track. In this volatile environment, its comforting
to know that your Board is committed to putting your interests first. We
realize you have many choices when selecting a money manager, and your
Board is working hard to ensure you feel youve made the right choice.
To that end, Im pleased to share the news that Invesco has completed its acquisition of
Morgan Stanleys retail asset management business, including Van Kampen Investments. This
acquisition greatly expands the breadth and depth of investment strategies we can offer you.
Another key advantage of this combination is the highly complementary nature of our cultures. This
is making it much easier to bring our organizations together while ensuring that our investment
teams remain focused on managing your money.
We view this addition as an excellent opportunity for you, our shareholders, to have access to
an even broader range of well-diversified mutual funds. Now that the acquisition has closed,
Invesco is working to bring the full value of the combined organization to shareholders. The key
goals of this effort are to ensure that we have deeply resourced and focused investment teams, a
compelling line of products and enhanced efficiency, which will benefit our shareholders now and
over the long term.
It might interest you to know that the mutual funds of the combined organization are overseen
by a single fund Board composed of 17 current members, including four new members who joined us
from Van Kampen/Morgan Stanley. This expanded Board will continue to oversee the funds with the
same strong sense of responsibility for your money and your continued trust that we have always
maintained.
As always, you are welcome to contact me at bruce@brucecrockett.com with any questions or
concerns you may have. We look forward to representing you and serving your interests.
Sincerely,
Bruce L. Crockett

Managements Discussion of Trust Performance
Performance summary
As part of Invescos June 1, 2010, acquisition of Morgan Stanleys retail
asset management business, including Van Kampen Investments, Morgan Stanley
Insured Municipal Trust was renamed Invesco Insured Municipal Trust.
The Trusts return can be calculated based on either the market price or
the net asset value (NAV) of its shares. NAV per share is determined by
dividing the value of the Trusts portfolio securities, cash and other assets,
less all liabilities and preferred shares, by the total number of common
shares outstanding, while market price reflects the supply and demand for
Trust shares. As a result, the two returns can differ, as they did during the
reporting period.
Main contributors to return on an NAV basis included our yield curve
exposure, our allocation to BBB-rated bonds, and our exposure to public
power bonds.

The performance data quoted represent past performance and cannot
guarantee comparable future results; current performance may be lower or
higher. Investment return, net asset value and common share market price will
fluctuate so that you may have a gain or loss when you sell shares. Please
visit invesco.com/performance for the most recent month-end performance.
Performance figures reflect Trust expenses, the reinvestment of distributions
(if any) and changes in net asset value (NAV) for performance based on NAV
and changes in market price for performance based on market price.
Since the Trust is a closed-end management investment company, shares
of the Trust may trade at a discount or premium from the NAV. This
characteristic is separate and distinct from the risk that NAV could
decrease as a result of investment activities and may be a greater risk to
investors expecting to sell their shares after a short time. The Trust
cannot predict whether shares will trade at, above or below NAV. The Trust
should not be viewed as a vehicle for trading purposes. It is designed
primarily for risk-tolerant long-term investors.
How we invest
We seek to provide investors
with a high level of current income
exempt from federal income tax, with
liquidity and safety of principal,
primarily by investing in a
diversified portfolio of municipal
securities that are covered by
insurance with respect to timely
payment of principal and interest.
We seek to achieve the Trusts
investment objective by investing
primarily in insured municipal
obligations that are rated A or
higher by at least one nationally
recognized statistical rating
organization. Municipal obligations
include municipal bonds, municipal
notes, municipal commercial paper and
lease obligations. The Trust also may
invest in
taxable or tax-exempt investment
grade securities, or if not rated,
securities we determine to be of
comparable quality.
From time to time,
we may invest in municipal securities
that pay interest that is subject to
the federal alternative minimum tax.
We employ a bottom-up,
research-driven approach to identify
securities that have attractive
risk/reward characteristics for the
sectors in which we invest. We also
integrate macroeconomic analysis and
forecasting into our evaluation and
ranking of various sectors and
individual securities. Finally, we
employ leverage in an effort to
enhance the Trusts income and total
return.
Sell decisions are based on:
n
|
|
A deterioration or likely
deterioration of an individual
issuers capacity to meet its debt
obligations on a timely basis.
|
n
|
|
A deterioration or likely
deterioration of the broader
fundamentals of a particular
industry or sector.
|
|
n
|
|
Opportunities in the secondary or
primary market to swap into a
security with better relative value.
|
Market conditions and your Trust
Market conditions during the
12-month period covered in this report
were influenced by two broad themes:
private sector recovery and concerns
over sovereign creditworthiness. In
the U.S. and across the developed
world as a whole, a gradual and
somewhat lacklus-ter recovery
continued, with central banks keeping
interest rates at low levels, and few
of them withdrawing their quantitative
easing measures. This has helped
private sector companies improve their
balance sheets and earnings following
the global financial crisis that began
to dissipate in early 2009. Recently,
however, investor skepticism of global
governments abilities to retire huge
amounts of debt without affecting
economic growth rates caused sovereign
debt distress (especially for Greece
and other southern eurozone countries)
and became a focal point of investor
concern in the first half of 2010.
In the U.S., economic recovery
was present, although uneven and
possibly slowing, as stubbornly high
unemployment and export weakness
continued to weigh on the U.S.
economy. Real gross domestic product
(GDP), the broadest measure of overall
U.S. economic activity, increased at
an annual rate of 2.5% in the third
quarter of 2010 (that is, from the
second quarter to the third
quarter).
1
In the second
quarter, real GDP increased at an
annual rate of 1.7%.
1
The
U.S. Federal Reserve (the Fed)
maintained a very accommodative
monetary policy throughout the period,
with the federal funds target rate
unchanged in a range of zero to
0.25%.
2
The Fed recently
described its view of the U.S. economy
by saying, Financial conditions have
become less supportive of economic
growth on balance, largely reflecting
developments abroad.
2
As
such, it was widely expected that the
Fed would continue to keep rates low
for an extended period.

Municipal fund flows remained elevated after a record 2009 and this provided a positive
catalyst for both the net asset values and market prices of closed end municipal funds. In
addition, year to date through October 31, municipal issuance was about 2% ahead of last years
pace, at $339.7 billion versus $333.0 billion.
3
However, approximately 30% of supply
since the beginning of the year was in the form of taxable municipals, which further supported
tax-exempt municipal bond prices by decreasing their relative supply.
3
The Trusts
exposure to the 15- to 20-year portion and the long end (20+ years) of the yield curve contributed
to returns. The Trusts long duration profile also was a contributor as yields declined during most
of the reporting period. Some of our yield curve and duration positioning was obtained through the
use of inverse floating rate securities. Inverse floating rate securities are instruments which
have an inverse relationship to a referenced interest rate. Inverse floating rate securities can be
a more efficient way to manage duration, yield curve exposure and
credit exposure and can
potentially enhance yield.
Sector performance was driven by
quality spread tightening which was
largely a result of continued flows
into the municipal market combined and
with less tax-exempt issuance. As a
result, BBB-rated and lower credit
quality sectors outperformed, and this
benefited Trust performance as we had
some exposure to these market
segments.
At the sector level, our
allocation to public power bonds and
industrial development
revenue/pollution control revenue
bonds contributed to returns for the
reporting period.
The Trust employs leverage in an
effort to enhance income and total
return. Leverage simply magnifies the
performance of the Trust, either up
or down, and can be implemented in
several ways. The Trust achieves a
leveraged position by both borrowings
and the use of financial instruments,
which include auction preferred
shares. During the reporting period,
the Trust benefited from the use of
leverage.
As stated earlier, the Trust
trades a market price and also has
an NAV. For most of the reporting
period the Trust traded at a
discount to its underlying NAV. This
discount narrowed as we began the
reporting period and then remained
fairly stable from February to June.
After a market rally that began in
late June, the Trust traded at a
premium from August to early October.
The Trust traded at a discount for a
few weeks in October before closing
the reporting period trading at a
premium.
After the close of the Trusts
fiscal year, market volatility
increased significantly across the
municipal asset class. Since the
November elections, there are
expectations that the Bush federal
income tax cuts will be extended,
which may diminish investor appetite
for tax-free bonds. Additionally,
market volatility was amplified as
U.S. Treasury yields increased while
states and municipalities flooded the
market with new issues, including
large issuance from the state of
California.
Thank you for investing in
Invesco Insured Municipal Trust and
for sharing our long-term
investment horizon.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan
The dividend reinvestment plan (the Plan) offers you a prompt and simple way to reinvest your
dividends and capital gains distributions (Distributions) into additional shares of your Trust.
Under the Plan, the money you earn from dividends and capital gains distributions will be
reinvested automatically in more shares of your Trust, allowing you to potentially increase your
investment over time.

|
|
|
You may increase the amount of shares in your Trust easily and automatically with the Plan.
|

|
|
Low transaction costs
|
|

|
|
Convenience
|
|
|
|
You will receive a detailed account
statement from Computershare Trust
Company, N.A. (the Agent) which
administers the Plan. The statement
shows your total distributions, date
of investment, shares acquired, and
price per share, as well as the
total number of shares in your
reinvestment account. You can also
access your account via the
Internet. To do this, please go to
invesco.com.
|
|
n
|
|
Safekeeping
|
|
|
|
The Agent will hold the
shares it has acquired for
you in safekeeping.
|
How to participate in the Plan
If you own shares in your own
name, you can participate directly in
the Plan. If your shares are held in
street name in the name of your
brokerage firm, bank, or other
financial institution you must
instruct that entity to participate on
your behalf. If they are unable to
participate on your behalf, you may
request that they reregister your
shares in your own name so that you
may enroll in the Plan.
How to enroll
To enroll in the Plan, please
read the Terms and Conditions in the
Plan brochure. You can obtain a copy
of the Plan Brochure and enroll in the
Plan by visiting invesco.com, calling
toll-free 800 341 2929 or notifying us
in writing at Invesco Closed-End
Funds, Computershare Trust Company,
N.A. P.O. Box 43078, Providence, RI
02940-3078. Please include your Trust
name and account number and ensure
that all shareholders listed on the
account sign these written
instructions. Your participation in
the Plan will begin with the next
Distribution payable after the Agent
receives your authorization, as long
as they receive it before the record
date, which is generally one week
before such Distributions are paid. If
your authorization arrives after such
record date, your participation in the
Plan will begin with the following
Distributions.
How the Plan Works
If you choose to participate in
the Plan, whenever your Trust
declares such Distributions, it will
be invested in additional shares of
your Trust that are purchased on the
open market.
Costs of the Plan
There is no direct charge to you
for reinvesting Distributions because
the Plans fees are paid by your
Trust. However, you will pay your
portion of any per share fees incurred
when the new shares are purchased on
the open market. These fees are
typically less than the standard
brokerage charges for individual
transactions, because shares are
purchased for all Participants in
blocks, resulting in lower commissions
for each individual Participant. Any
per share or service fees are averaged
into the purchase price. Per share
fees include any applicable brokerage
commissions the Agent is required to
pay.
Tax implications
The automatic reinvestment of
Distributions does not relieve you
of any income tax that may be due on
Distributions. You will receive tax
information annually to help you
prepare your federal income tax
return.
Invesco does not offer tax
advice. The tax information contained
herein is general and is not
exhaustive by nature. It was not
intended or written to be used, and it
cannot be used, by any taxpayer for
avoiding penalties that may be imposed
on the taxpayer under U.S. federal tax
laws. Federal and state tax laws are
complex and constantly changing.
Shareholders should always consult a
legal or tax adviser for information
concerning their individual situation.
How to withdraw from the Plan
You may withdraw from the Plan
at any time by calling 800 341 2929,
visiting invesco.com or by writing to
Invesco Closed-End Funds,
Computershare Trust Company, N.A.,
P.O. Box 43078, Providence, RI
02940-3078. Simply indicate that you
would like to withdraw from the Plan,
and be sure to include your Trust name
and account number. Also, ensure that
all shareholders listed on the account
have signed these written
instructions. If you withdraw, you
have three options with regard to the
shares held in the Plan:
|
1.
|
|
If you opt to continue to
hold your non-certificated
shares, whole shares will be
held by the Agent and
fractional shares will be
sold. The proceeds will be
sent via check to your address
of record after deducting per
share fees. Per share fees
include any applicable
brokerage commissions the
Agent is required to pay.
|
|
2.
|
|
If you opt to sell your
shares through the Agent, we
will sell all full and
fractional shares and send the
proceeds via check to your
address of record after
deducting per share fees. Per
share fees include any
applicable brokerage
commissions the Agent is
required to pay.
|
|
|
3.
|
|
You may sell your shares
through your financial adviser
through the Direct Registration
System (DRS). DRS is a service
within the securities industry
that allows Trust shares to be
held in your name in electronic
format. You retain full
ownership of your shares,
without having to hold a stock
certificate. You should contact
your financial adviser to learn
more about any restrictions or
fees that may apply.

|
(f)
|
|
Principal and interest payments are
fully enhanced by a letter of credit from the bank listed or a
predecessor bank, branch or subsidiary.
|
(g)
|
|
Security is subject to a shortfall
agreement which may require the Trust to pay amounts to a
counterparty in the event of a significant decline in the market
value of the security underlying the inverse floater. In case of
a shortfall, the maximum potential amount of payments the Trust
could ultimately be required to make under the agreement is
$6,175,000. However, such shortfall payment would be reduced by
the proceeds from the sale of the security underlying the
inverse floater.
|
(h)
|
|
Security is a
step-up
bond where the coupon increases on a predetermined future date.
|
(i)
|
|
Floating rate note obligations
related to securities held. The interest rates shown reflect the
rates in effect at October 31, 2010. At October 31,
2010, the Trusts investments with a value of $103,493,033
are held by the Dealer Trusts and serve as collateral for the
$58,945,000 in floating rate note and dealer trust obligations
outstanding at that date.

Notes

2010
NOTE 1Significant
Accounting Policies
Invesco Insured Municipal Trust (the Trust), a
Massachusetts business trust, is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a
diversified, closed-end management investment company. Effective
June 1, 2010, the Trust name changed from Morgan Stanley
Insured Municipal Trust to Invesco Insured Municipal Trust.
The Trusts investment objective is to provide
current income which is exempt from federal income tax.
The following is a summary of the significant
accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of
its financial statements.
|
|
|
A.
|
|
Security
Valuations
Securities, including
restricted securities, are valued according to the following
policy.
|
|
|
Securities are fair valued using an
evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service
approved by the Board of Trustees. Evaluated quotes provided by
the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance
on quoted prices and may reflect appropriate factors such as
institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield,
quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, individual
trading characteristics and other market data. Short-term
obligations, including commercial paper, having 60 days or
less to maturity are recorded at amortized cost which
approximates value. Securities with a demand feature exercisable
within one to seven days are valued at par. Debt securities are
subject to interest rate and credit risks. In addition, all debt
securities involve some risk of default with respect to interest
and principal payments.
|
|
|
Securities for which market quotations
either are not readily available or are unreliable are valued at
fair value as determined in good faith by or under the
supervision of the Trusts officers following procedures
approved by the Board of Trustees. Some of the factors which may
be considered in determining fair value are fundamental
analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and
duration of any restrictions on transferability or disposition;
trading in similar securities by the same issuer or comparable
companies; relevant political, economic or issuer specific news;
and other relevant factors under the circumstances.
|
18 Invesco
Insured Municipal Trust
|
|
|
|
|
Valuations change in response to many
factors including the historical and prospective earnings of the
issuer, the value of the issuers assets, general economic
conditions, interest rates, investor perceptions and market
liquidity. Because of the inherent uncertainties of valuation,
the values reflected in the financial statements may materially
differ from the value received upon actual sale of those
investments.
|
B.
|
|
Securities
Transactions and Investment Income
Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
Realized gains or losses on sales are computed on the basis of
specific identification of the securities sold. Interest income
is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Dividend
income (net of withholding tax, if any) is recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Bond premiums and discounts are amortized
and/or
accreted for financial reporting purposes.
|
|
|
The Trust may periodically participate
in litigation related to Trust investments. As such, the Trust
may receive proceeds from litigation settlements. Any proceeds
received are included in the Statement of Operations as realized
gain (loss) for investments no longer held and as unrealized
gain (loss) for investments still held.
|
|
|
Brokerage commissions and mark ups are
considered transaction costs and are recorded as an increase to
the cost basis of securities purchased
and/or
a
reduction of proceeds on a sale of securities. Such transaction
costs are included in the determination of net realized and
unrealized gain (loss) from investment securities reported in
the Statement of Operations and the Statement of Changes in Net
Assets and the net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on
securities per share in the Financial Highlights. Transaction
costs are included in the calculation of the Trusts net
asset value and, accordingly, they reduce the Trusts total
returns. These transaction costs are not considered operating
expenses and are not reflected in net investment income reported
in the Statement of Operations and Statement of Changes in Net
Assets, or the net investment income per share and ratios of
expenses and net investment income reported in the Financial
Highlights, nor are they limited by any expense limitation
arrangements between the Trust and the investment adviser.
|
C.
|
|
Country
Determination
For the purposes of making
investment selection decisions and presentation in the Schedule
of Investments, the investment adviser may determine the country
in which an issuer is located
and/or
credit risk exposure based on various factors. These factors
include the laws of the country under which the issuer is
organized, where the issuer maintains a principal office, the
country in which the issuer derives 50% or more of its total
revenues and the country that has the primary market for the
issuers securities, as well as other criteria. Among the
other criteria that may be evaluated for making this
determination are the country in which the issuer maintains 50%
or more of its assets, the type of security, financial
guarantees and enhancements, the nature of the collateral and
the sponsor organization. Country of issuer
and/or
credit risk exposure has been determined to be the United States
of America, unless otherwise noted.
|
D.
|
|
Distributions
Distributions to common shareholders from income are declared
and paid monthly. Distributions of net realized capital gain, if
any, are generally paid annually and recorded on
ex-dividend
date.
|
E.
|
|
Federal Income
Taxes
The Trust intends to comply with
the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue
Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment company and
to distribute substantially all of the Trusts taxable
earnings to shareholders. As such, the Trust will not be subject
to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including
net realized capital gain) that is distributed to shareholders.
Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is recorded in
the financial statements.
|
|
|
The Trust files tax returns in the
U.S. Federal jurisdiction and certain other jurisdictions.
Generally the Trust is subject to examinations by such taxing
authorities for up to three years after the filing of the return
for the tax period.
|
F.
|
|
Accounting
Estimates
The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (GAAP)
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period including
estimates and assumptions related to taxation. Actual results
could differ from those estimates by a significant amount. In
addition, the Trust monitors for material events or transactions
that may occur or become known after the period-end date and
before the date the financial statements are released to print.
|
G.
|
|
Indemnifications
Under the Trusts organizational documents, each Trustee,
officer, employee or other agent of the Trust is indemnified
against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of
their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of
business, the Trust enters into contracts, including the
Trusts servicing agreements that contain a variety of
indemnification clauses. The Trusts maximum exposure under
these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future
claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet
occurred. The risk of material loss as a result of such
indemnification claims is considered remote.
|
H.
|
|
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
For the purposes of the
Statement of Cash Flows the Fund defines Cash and Cash
Equivalents as cash (including foreign currency), money market
funds and other investments held in lieu of cash and excludes
investments made with cash collateral received.
|
I.

Inverse Floating
Rate Obligations
The Trust may invest in
inverse floating rate securities, such as Residual Interest
Bonds (RIBs) or Tender Option Bonds
(TOBs) for investment purposes and to enhance the
yield of the Trust. Inverse floating rate investments tend to
underperform the market for fixed rate bonds in a rising
interest rate environment, but tend to outperform the market for
fixed rate bonds when interest rates decline or remain
relatively stable. Such transactions may be purchased in the
secondary market without first owning the underlying bond or by
the sale of fixed rate bonds by the Trust to Special Purpose
Trusts established by a broker dealer (Dealer
Trusts) in exchange for cash and residual interests in the
Dealer Trusts assets and cash flows, which are in the form
of inverse floating rate obligations. The Dealer Trusts finance
the purchases of the fixed rate bonds by issuing floating rate
notes to third parties and allowing the Trust to retain residual
interest in the bonds. The floating rate notes issued by the
Dealer Trusts have interest rates that reset weekly and the
floating rate note holders have the option to tender their notes
to the Dealer Trusts for redemption at par at each reset date.
The residual interests held by the Trust (inverse floating rate
investments) include the right of the Trust (1) to cause
the holders of the floating rate notes to tender their notes at
par at the next interest rate reset date, and (2) to
transfer the municipal bond from the Dealer Trusts to the Fund,
thereby collapsing the Dealer Trusts.
|
|
|
TOBs are presently classified as private
placement securities. Private placement securities are subject
to restrictions on resale because they have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or are otherwise
not readily marketable. As a result of the absence of a public
trading market for
|
19 Invesco
Insured Municipal Trust
|
|
|
|
|
these securities, they may be less liquid than publicly traded
securities. Although these securities may be resold in privately
negotiated transactions, the prices realized from these sales
could be less than those originally paid by the Trust or less
than what may be considered the fair value of such securities.
|
|
|
The Trust accounts for the transfer of
bonds to the Dealer Trusts as secured borrowings, with the
securities transferred remaining in the Trusts investment
assets, and the related floating rate notes reflected as Trust
liabilities under the caption
Floating rate note and dealer
trust obligations
on the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities. The Trust records the interest income from the
fixed rate bonds under the caption
Interest
and records
the expenses related to floating rate obligations and any
administrative expenses of the Dealer Trusts under the caption
Interest expense
on the Statement of Operations.
|
|
|
The Trust generally invest in inverse
floating rate obligations that include embedded leverage, thus
exposing the Fund to greater risks and increased costs. The
primary risks associated with inverse floating rate obligations
are varying degrees of liquidity and the changes in the value of
such securities in response to changes in market rates of
interest to a greater extent than the value of an equal
principal amount of a fixed rate security having similar credit
quality, redemption provisions and maturity which may cause the
Trusts net asset value to be more volatile than if it had
not invested in inverse floating rate investments. In certain
instances, the short-term floating rate interests created by the
special purpose trust may not be able to be sold to third
parties or, in the case of holders tendering (or putting) such
interests for repayment of principal, may not be able to be
remarketed to third parties. In such cases, the special purpose
trust holding the long-term fixed rate bonds may be collapsed.
In the case of RIBs or TOBs created by the contribution of
long-term fixed income bonds by the Trust, the Trust will then
be required to repay the principal amount of the tendered
securities. During times of market volatility, illiquidity or
uncertainty, the Trust could be required to sell other portfolio
holdings at a disadvantageous time to raise cash to meet that
obligation.

Futures
Contracts
The Trust may enter into
futures contracts to manage exposure to interest rate, equity
and market price movements
and/or
currency risks. A futures contract is an agreement between two
parties to purchase or sell a specified underlying security,
currency or commodity (or delivery of a cash settlement price,
in the case of an index future) for a fixed price at a future
date. The Trust currently invests only in exchange-traded
futures and they are standardized as to maturity date and
underlying financial instrument. Initial margin deposits
required upon entering into futures contracts are satisfied by
the segregation of specific securities or cash as collateral at
the futures commission merchant (broker). During the period the
futures contracts are open, changes in the value of the
contracts are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by
recalculating the value of the contracts on a daily basis.
Subsequent or variation margin payments are received or made
depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred.
These amounts are reflected as receivables or payables on the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When the contracts are
closed or expire, the Trust recognizes a realized gain or loss
equal to the difference between the proceeds from, or cost of,
the closing transaction and the Trusts basis in the
contract. The net realized gain (loss) and the change in
unrealized gain (loss) on futures contracts held during the
period is included on the Statement of Operations. The primary
risks associated with futures contracts are market risk and the
absence of a liquid secondary market. If the Trust were unable
to liquidate a futures contract
and/or
enter
into an offsetting closing transaction, the Trust would continue
to be subject to market risk with respect to the value of the
contracts and continue to be required to maintain the margin
deposits on the futures contracts. Futures contracts have
minimal counterparty risk since the exchanges
clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures,
guarantees the futures against default. Risks may exceed amounts
recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

NOTE 2Advisory
Fees and Other Fees Paid to Affiliates
Effective June 1, 2010, the Trust has entered into a master
investment advisory agreement with Invesco Advisers, Inc. (the
Adviser or Invesco). Under the terms of
the investment advisory agreement, the Trust pays an advisory
fee to the Adviser based on the annual rate 0.27% of the
Trusts average weekly net assets including current
preferred shares and a portion of floating rate and dealer trust
obligations that the Trust entered into to retire outstanding
preferred shares of the Trust. Prior June 1, 2010, the
Trust paid an advisory fee of $593,760 to Morgan Stanley
Investment Advisors Inc. (MSIA) based on the annual
rate and Trusts average weekly net assets as discussed
above.
Effective June 1, 2010, under the terms of a
master
sub-advisory
agreement between the Adviser and each of Invesco Asset
Management Deutschland GmbH, Invesco Asset Management Limited,
Invesco Asset Management (Japan) Limited, Invesco Australia
Limited, Invesco Hong Kong Limited, Invesco Senior Secured
Management, Inc. and Invesco Trimark Ltd. (collectively, the
Affiliated
Sub-Advisers)
the Adviser, not the Trust, may pay 40% of the fees paid to the
Adviser to any such Affiliated
Sub-Adviser(s)
that provide discretionary investment management services to the
Trust based on the percentage of assets allocated to such
Sub-Adviser(s).
Effective June 1, 2010, the Adviser has
contractually agreed, through at least June 30, 2012, to
waive advisory fees
and/or
reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to limit the
Trusts expenses (excluding certain items discussed below)
to 0.66%. In determining the Advisers obligation to waive
advisory fees
and/or
reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into
account, and could cause the Trusts expenses to exceed the
limit reflected above: (1) interest; (2) taxes;
(3) dividend expense on short sales; (4) extraordinary
or non-routine items; and (5) expenses that the Trust has
incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset
arrangement. Unless the Board of Trustees and Invesco mutually
agree to amend or continue the fee waiver agreement, it will
terminate on June 30, 2012. The Adviser did not waive fees
and/or
reimburse expenses during the period under this expense
limitation.
Prior to June 1, 2010, investment advisory fees
paid by the Trust were reduced by an amount equal to the
advisory and administrative service fees paid by Morgan Stanley
Institutional Liquidity Funds Tax Exempt
Portfolio Institutional Class shares.
For the year ended October 31, 2010, MSIA
waived advisory fees of $13,447.
The Trust has entered into a master administrative
services agreement with Invesco pursuant to which the Trust has
agreed to pay Invesco for certain administrative costs incurred
in providing accounting services to the Trust. Prior to
June 1, 2010, the Trust paid an administration fee of
$175,460 to Morgan Stanley Services Company, Inc. For the year
ended October 31, 2010, expenses incurred under these
agreements are shown in the Statement of Operations as
administrative services fees. Also, Invesco has entered into
service agreements whereby State Street Bank and
Trust Company (SSB) serves as the custodian and
fund accountant and provides certain administrative services to
the Trust.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are
officers and directors of Invesco, IIS
and/or
IDI.

NOTE 3Additional
Valuation Information
GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to
sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date,
under current market conditions. GAAP establishes a hierarchy
that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods giving the
highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices
in an active market for identical assets (Level 1) and
the lowest priority to significant unobservable inputs
(Level 3) generally when market prices are not readily
available or are unreliable. Based on the valuation inputs, the
securities or other investments are tiered into one of three
levels. Changes in valuation methods may result in transfers in
or out of an investments assigned level:
|
|
|
|
Level 1
|
Prices are determined using quoted prices in an active market
for identical assets.
|
|
Level 2
|
Prices are determined using other significant observable inputs.
Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants may
use in pricing a security. These may include quoted prices for
similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit
risk, yield curves, loss severities, default rates, discount
rates, volatilities and others.
|
|
Level 3
|
Prices are determined using significant unobservable inputs. In
situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are
unavailable (for example, when there is little or no market
activity for an investment at the end of the period),
unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the
Trusts own assumptions about the factors market
participants would use in determining fair value of the
securities or instruments and would be based on the best
available information.
|
The following is a summary of the tiered valuation
input levels, as of October 31, 2010. The level assigned to
the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk
or liquidity associated with investing in those securities.
Because of the inherent uncertainties of valuation, the values
reflected in the financial statements may materially differ from
the value received upon actual sale of those investments.

NOTE 5Trustees
and Officers Fees and Benefits
Trustees and Officers Fees and Benefits
include amounts accrued by the Trust to pay remuneration to
certain Trustees and Officers of the Trust. Trustees have the
option to defer compensation payable by the Trust, and
Trustees and Officers Fees and Benefits
also include amounts accrued by the Trust to fund such deferred
compensation amounts. Those Trustees who defer compensation have
the option to select various Invesco Funds in which their
deferral accounts shall be deemed to be invested. Finally,
certain current Trustees are eligible to participate in a
retirement plan that provides for benefits to be paid upon
retirement to Trustees over a period of time based on the number
of years of service. The Trust may have certain former Trustees
who also participate in a retirement plan and receive benefits
under such plan. Trustees and Officers Fees
and Benefits include amounts accrued by the Trust to fund
such retirement benefits. Obligations under the deferred
compensation and retirement plans represent unsecured claims
against the general assets of the Trust.
For the period June 1, 2010 to October 31,
2010, the Trust paid legal fees of $77 for services rendered by
Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel LLP as counsel to
the Independent Trustees. A member of that firm is a Trustee of
the Trust.
NOTE 6Cash
Balances and Borrowings
The Trust is permitted to temporarily carry a negative or
overdrawn balance in its account with The State Street Bank and
Trust Company, the custodian bank. To compensate the
custodian bank for such overdrafts, the overdrawn Trust may
either (1) leave funds as a compensating balance in the
account so the custodian bank can be compensated by earning the
additional interest; or (2) compensate by paying the
custodian bank at a rate agreed upon by the custodian bank and
Invesco, not to exceed the contractually agreed upon rate.
21 Invesco

Inverse floating rate note obligations resulting
from the transfer of bonds to Dealer Trusts are accounted for as
secured borrowings. The average floating rate notes outstanding
and average annual interest and fees related to inverse floating
rate note obligations during the period ending October 31,
2010 were $68,596,538 and 0.79%, respectively.

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is due to differences in
the timing of recognition of gains and losses on investments for
tax and book purposes. The Trusts net unrealized
appreciation difference is attributable primarily to TOBs and
premium amortization/accretion.
The temporary book/tax differences are a result of
timing differences between book and tax recognition of income
and/or
expenses. The Trusts temporary book/tax differences are
the result of the trustee deferral of compensation and
retirement plan benefits.
Capital loss carryforward is calculated and reported
as of a specific date. Results of transactions and other
activity after that date may affect the amount of capital loss
carryforward actually available for the Trust to utilize. The
ability to utilize capital loss carryforward in the future may
be limited under the Internal Revenue Code and related
regulations based on the results of future transactions.
The Trust utilized $517,382 of capital loss
carryforward in the current period to offset net realized
capital gain for federal income tax purposes. The Trust has a
capital loss carryforward as of October 31, 2010 which
expires as follows:

This reclassification had no effect on the net assets of the

NOTE 10Preferred
Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Trust is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000
non-participating preferred shares of beneficial interest having
a par value of $.01 per share, in one or more series, with
rights as determined by the Trustees, without approval of the
common shareholders. The Trust has issued Series TU and TH
Auction Rate Preferred Shares (preferred shares)
which have a liquidation value of $50,000 per share plus the
redemption premium, if any, plus accumulated but unpaid
dividends, whether or not declared, thereon to the date of
distribution. The Trust may redeem such shares, in whole or in
part, at the original purchase price of $50,000 per share plus
accumulated but unpaid dividends, whether or not declared,
thereon to the date of redemption. Historically, the Trust paid
annual fees equivalent to 0.25% of the preferred share
liquidation value for the remarketing efforts associated with
the preferred auction. Effective March 31, 2009, the Trust
decreased this amount to 0.15% due to auction failures. In the
future, if auctions no longer fail, the Trust may return to an
annual fee payment of 0.25% of the preferred share liquidation
value. These fees are included as a component of Preferred
Share Maintenance expense on the Statement of Operations.
Dividends, which are cumulative, are reset through
auction procedures.

|
Subsequent to October 31, 2010 and up through
December 3, 2010, the Trust paid dividends to each of the
Series TU and TH at rates ranging from 0.220% to 0.275% in the
aggregate amount of $152,678.
The Trust is subject to certain restrictions
relating to the preferred shares. Failure to comply with these
restrictions could preclude the Trust from declaring any
distributions to common shareholders or purchasing common shares
and/or
could
trigger the mandatory redemption of preferred shares at
liquidation value.
Beginning mid-February 2008 and continuing through
December 2, 2010, all series of preferred shares of the
Trust were not successfully remarketed. As a result, the
dividend rates of these preferred shares were reset to the
maximum applicable rate.
The preferred shares, which are entitled to one vote
per share, generally vote with the common shares but vote
separately as a class to elect two Trustees and on any matters
affecting the rights of the preferred shares.
The preferred shares are not listed on an exchange.
Investors in preferred shares may participate in auctions
through authorized broker-dealers; however, such broker-dealers
are not required to maintain a secondary market in preferred
shares, and there can be no assurance that a secondary market
will develop, or if it does develop, a secondary market may not
provide you with liquidity. When a preferred share auction
fails, investors may not be able to sell any or all of their
preferred shares and because of the nature of the market for
preferred shares, investors may receive less than the price paid
for their preferred shares if sold outside of the auction.
The Trust entered into additional floating rate note
and dealer trusts obligations as an alternative form of leverage
in order to redeem and to retire a portion of its preferred
shares. Transactions in preferred shares were as follows:

24 Invesco
Insured Municipal Trust
NOTE 14Change
in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Trust
appointed, and the Board of Trustees ratified thereafter and
approved, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PWC) as the
independent registered public accounting firm of the Trust for
the fiscal year following May 31, 2010. Prior to
May 31, 2010, the Trusts financial statements were
audited by a different independent registered public accounting
firm (the Prior Auditor). The Board of Trustees
selected a new independent auditor for the Trusts current
fiscal year in connection with the appointment of Invesco
Advisers as investment adviser to the Trust (New Advisory
Agreement).
Effective June 1, 2010, the Prior Auditor
resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of
the Trust. The Prior Auditors report on the financial
statements of the Trust for the past two years did not contain
an adverse or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting
principles. During the period the Prior Auditor was engaged,
there were no disagreements with the Prior Auditor on any matter
of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not
resolved to the Prior Auditors satisfaction, would have
caused it to make reference to that matter in connection with
its report.
25 Invesco
Insured Municipal Trust
Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Invesco Insured
Municipal Trust:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and
liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the
related statements of operations, of changes in net assets and
of cash flows and the financial highlights present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Invesco Insured
Municipal Trust (formerly known as Morgan Stanley Insured
Municipal Trust hereafter referred to as the Trust)
at October 31, 2010, the results of its operations, the
changes in its net assets and of cash flows and the financial
highlights for the year then ended, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as financial statements) are
the responsibility of the Trusts management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these
financial statements in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audit, which included confirmation of
securities at October 31, 2010 by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers, provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion. The statement of changes in net assets for the year
ended October 31, 2009 and the financial highlights of the
Trust for the periods ended October 31, 2009 and prior were
audited by other independent auditors whose report dated
December 24, 2009 expressed an unqualified opinion on those
financial statements.

With respect to the provision of non-audit services, the pre-approval requirement is waived
pursuant to a de minimis exception if (i) such services were not recognized as non-audit
services by the Registrant at the time of engagement, (ii) the aggregate amount of all such
services provided is no more than 5% of the aggregate audit and non-audit fees paid by the
Registrant, Invesco and Invesco Affiliates to PWC during a fiscal year; and (iii) such
services are promptly brought to the attention of the Registrants Audit Committee and
approved by the Registrants Audit Committee prior to the completion of the audit.

Including the fees for services not required to be pre-approved by the registrants audit
committee, PWC billed Invesco and Invesco Affiliates aggregate non-audit fees of $0 for the
fiscal year ended October 31, 2010, and $0 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009, for
non-audit services rendered to Invesco and Invesco Affiliates.
|
|
|
|
The Audit Committee also has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that
were rendered to Invesco and Invesco Affiliates that were not required to be pre-approved
pursuant to SEC regulations, if any, is compatible with maintaining PWCs independence. To
the extent that such services were provided, the Audit Committee determined that the
provision of such services is compatible with PWC maintaining independence with respect to
the Registrant.

PRE-APPROVAL OF AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES
POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
As adopted by the Audit Committees of
the Invesco Funds (the Funds)
Last Amended May 4, 2010
Statement of Principles
Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) (Rules), the Audit Committees of the Funds (the Audit Committees) Board of
Trustees (the Board) are responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work
of independent accountants (an Auditor). As part of this responsibility and to assure that the
Auditors independence is not impaired, the Audit Committees pre-approve the audit and non-audit
services provided to the Funds by each Auditor, as well as all non-audit services provided by the
Auditor to the Funds investment adviser and to affiliates of the adviser that provide ongoing
services to the Funds (Service Affiliates) if the services directly impact the Funds operations
or financial reporting. The SEC Rules also specify the types of services that an Auditor may not
provide to its audit client. The following policies and procedures comply with the requirements
for pre-approval and provide a mechanism by which management of the Funds may request and secure
pre-approval of audit and non-audit services in an orderly manner with minimal disruption to normal
business operations.
Proposed services either may be pre-approved without consideration of specific case-by-case
services by the Audit Committees (general pre-approval) or require the specific pre-approval of
the Audit Committees (specific pre-approval). As set forth in these policies and procedures,
unless a type of service has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval
by the Audit Committees. Additionally, any fees exceeding 110% of estimated pre-approved fee
levels provided at the time the service was pre-approved will also require specific approval by the
Audit Committees before payment is made. The Audit Committees will also consider the impact of
additional fees on the Auditors independence when determining whether to approve any additional
fees for previously pre-approved services.
The Audit Committees will annually review and generally pre-approve the services that may be
provided by each Auditor without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee generally
on an annual basis. The term of any general pre-approval runs from the date of such pre-approval
through September 30
th
of the following year, unless the Audit Committees consider a
different period and state otherwise. The Audit Committees will add to or subtract from the list
of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations.
The purpose of these policies and procedures is to set forth the guidelines to assist the Audit
Committees in fulfilling their responsibilities.
Delegation
The Audit Committees may from time to time delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of
its members who are Independent Trustees. All decisions to pre-approve a service by a delegated
member shall be reported to the Audit Committees at the next quarterly meeting.
Audit Services
The annual audit services engagement terms will be subject to specific pre-approval of the
Audit Committees. Audit services include the annual financial statement audit and other procedures
such as tax provision work that is required to be performed by the independent auditor to be able
to form an opinion on the Funds financial statements. The Audit Committees will obtain, review
and consider sufficient information concerning the proposed Auditor to make a reasonable evaluation
of the Auditors qualifications and independence.
In addition to the annual Audit services engagement, the Audit Committees may grant either general
or specific pre-approval of other audit services, which are those services that only the
independent auditor reasonably can provide. Other Audit services may include services such as
issuing consents for the inclusion of audited financial statements with SEC registration
statements, periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or other documents issued in
connection with securities offerings.
Non-Audit Services
The Audit Committees may provide either general or specific pre-approval of any non-audit
services to the Funds and its Service Affiliates if the Audit Committees believe that the provision
of the service will not impair the independence of the Auditor, is consistent with the SECs Rules
on auditor independence, and otherwise conforms to the Audit Committees general principles and
policies as set forth herein.
Audit-Related Services
Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the
performance of the audit or review of the Funds financial statements or that are traditionally
performed by the independent auditor. Audit-related services include, among others, accounting
consultations related to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters not classified as
Audit services; assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial
reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; and agreed-upon procedures related to mergers,
compliance with ratings agency requirements and interfund lending activities.
Tax Services
Tax services include, but are not limited to, the review and signing of the Funds federal tax
returns, the review of required distributions by the Funds and consultations regarding tax matters
such as the tax treatment of new investments or the impact of new regulations. The Audit
Committees will scrutinize carefully the retention of the Auditor in connection with a transaction
initially recommended by the Auditor, the major business purpose of which may be tax avoidance or
the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related
regulations. The Audit Committees will consult with the Funds Treasurer (or his or her designee)
and may consult with outside counsel or advisors as necessary to ensure the consistency of Tax
services rendered by the Auditor with the foregoing policy.
No Auditor shall represent any Fund or any Service Affiliate before a tax court, district court or
federal court of claims.
Under rules adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and approved by the SEC, in
connection with seeking Audit Committees pre-approval of permissible Tax services, the Auditor
shall:
|
1.
|
|
Describe in writing to the Audit Committees, which writing may be in the form of the
proposed engagement letter:
|
|
a.
|
|
The scope of the service, the fee structure for the engagement, and any
side letter or amendment to the engagement letter, or any other agreement between
the Auditor and the Fund, relating to the service; and
|
|
|
b.
|
|
Any compensation arrangement or other agreement, such as a referral
agreement, a referral fee or fee-sharing arrangement, between the Auditor and any
person (other than the Fund) with respect to the promoting, marketing, or
recommending of a transaction covered by the service;
|
|
2.
|
|
Discuss with the Audit Committees the potential effects of the services on the
independence of the Auditor; and
|
|
|
3.
|
|
Document the substance of its discussion with the Audit Committees.
|
All Other Auditor Services
The Audit Committees may pre-approve non-audit services classified as All other services that are
not categorically prohibited by the SEC, as listed in Exhibit 1 to this policy.
Pre-Approval Fee Levels or Established Amounts
Pre-approval of estimated fees or established amounts for services to be provided by the
Auditor under general or specific pre-approval policies will be set periodically by the Audit
Committees. Any proposed fees exceeding 110% of the maximum estimated pre-approved fees or
established amounts for pre-approved audit and non-audit services will be reported to the Audit
Committees at the quarterly Audit Committees meeting and will require specific approval by the
Audit Committees before payment is made. The Audit Committees will always factor
in the overall relationship of fees for audit and non-audit services in determining whether to
pre-approve any such services and in determining whether to approve any additional fees exceeding
110% of the maximum pre-approved fees or established amounts for previously pre-approved services.
Procedures
Generally on an annual basis, Invesco Advisers, Inc. (Invesco) will submit to the Audit
Committees for general pre-approval, a list of non-audit services that the Funds or Service
Affiliates of the Funds may request from the Auditor. The list will describe the non-audit
services in reasonable detail and will include an estimated range of fees and such other
information as the Audit Committee may request.
Each request for services to be provided by the Auditor under the general pre-approval of the Audit
Committees will be submitted to the Funds Treasurer (or his or her designee) and must include a
detailed description of the services to be rendered. The Treasurer or his or her designee will
ensure that such services are included within the list of services that have received the general
pre-approval of the Audit Committees. The Audit Committees will be informed at the next quarterly
scheduled Audit Committees meeting of any such services for which the Auditor rendered an invoice
and whether such services and fees had been pre-approved and if so, by what means.
Each request to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committees shall be
submitted to the Audit Committees jointly by the Funds Treasurer or his or her designee and the
Auditor, and must include a joint statement that, in their view, such request is consistent with
the policies and procedures and the SEC Rules.
Each request to provide tax services under either the general or specific pre-approval of the Audit
Committees will describe in writing: (i) the scope of the service, the fee structure for the
engagement, and any side letter or amendment to the engagement letter, or any other agreement
between the Auditor and the audit client, relating to the service; and (ii) any compensation
arrangement or other agreement between the Auditor and any person (other than the audit client)
with respect to the promoting, marketing, or recommending of a transaction covered by the service.
The Auditor will discuss with the Audit Committees the potential effects of the services on the
Auditors independence and will document the substance of the discussion.
Non-audit services pursuant to the
de minimis
exception provided by the SEC Rules will be promptly
brought to the attention of the Audit Committees for approval, including documentation that each of
the conditions for this exception, as set forth in the SEC Rules, has been satisfied.
On at least an annual basis, the Auditor will prepare a summary of all the services provided to any
entity in the investment company complex as defined in section 2-01(f)(14) of Regulation S-X in
sufficient detail as to the nature of the engagement and the fees associated with those services.
The Audit Committees have designated the Funds Treasurer to monitor the performance of all
services provided by the Auditor and to ensure such services are in compliance with these policies
and procedures. The Funds Treasurer will report to the Audit Committees on a periodic basis as to
the results of such monitoring. Both the Funds Treasurer and management of Invesco will
immediately report to the chairman of the Audit Committees any breach of these policies and
procedures that comes to the attention of the Funds Treasurer or senior management of Invesco.

The following policies and procedures apply to all institutional accounts, clients and
funds managed by Invesco Advisers, Inc. (Invesco). These policies and procedures do not apply to
any of the retail funds managed by Invesco. See Section I.2 for the proxy policies and procedures
applicable to Invescos retail funds.
A. POLICY STATEMENT
Invesco has responsibility for making investment decisions that are in the best interests of its
clients. As part of the investment management services it provides to clients, Invesco may be
authorized by clients to vote proxies appurtenant to the shares for which the clients are
beneficial owners.
Invesco believes that it has a duty to manage clients assets in the best economic interests of its
clients and that the ability to vote proxies is a client asset.
Invesco reserves the right to amend its proxy policies and procedures from time to time without
prior notice to its clients.
Voting of Proxies
Invesco will vote client proxies relating to equity securities in accordance with the procedures
set forth below unless a non-ERISA client retains in writing the right to vote, the named fiduciary
(e.g., the plan sponsor) of an ERISA client retains in writing the right to direct the plan trustee
or a third party to vote proxies, or Invesco determines that any benefit the client might gain from
voting a proxy
would be outweighed by the costs associated therewith. In addition, due to the
distinct nature of proxy voting for interests in fixed income assets and stable value wrap
agreements, the proxies for such fixed income assets and stable value wrap
agreements will be voted in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Proxy Voting for Fixed
Income Assets and Stable Value Wrap Agreements section below.
Best Economic Interests of Clients
In voting proxies, Invesco will take into consideration those factors that may affect the value of
the security and will vote proxies in a manner in which, in its opinion, is in the best economic
interests of clients. Invesco endeavors to resolve any conflicts of interest exclusively in the
best economic interests of clients.
B. OPERATING PROCEDURES AND RESPONSIBLE PARTIES
RiskMetrics Services
Invesco has contracted with RiskMetrics Group (RiskMetrics, formerly known as ISS), an
independent third party service provider, to vote Invescos clients proxies according to
RiskMetrics proxy voting recommendations determined by RiskMetrics pursuant to its then-current US
Proxy Voting Guidelines, a summary of which can be found at
http://www.riskmetrics.com
and which
are deemed to be incorporated herein. In addition, RiskMetrics will provide proxy analyses, vote
recommendations, vote execution and record-keeping services for clients for which Invesco has proxy
voting responsibility. On an annual basis, the Proxy Committee will review information obtained
from RiskMetrics to ascertain whether RiskMetrics (i) has the capacity and competency to adequately
analyze proxy issues, and (ii) can make such recommendations in an impartial manner and in the best
economic interests of Invescos clients. This may include a review of RiskMetrics Policies,
Procedures and Practices Regarding Potential Conflicts of Interest and obtaining information about
the work RiskMetrics does for corporate issuers and the payments RiskMetrics receives from such
issuers.
Custodians forward to RiskMetrics proxy materials for clients who rely on Invesco to vote proxies.
RiskMetrics is responsible for exercising the voting rights in accordance with the RiskMetrics
proxy voting guidelines. If Invesco receives proxy materials in connection with a clients account
where the client has, in writing, communicated to Invesco that the client, plan fiduciary or other
third party has reserved the right to vote proxies, Invesco will forward to the party appointed by
client any proxy materials it receives with respect to the account. In order to avoid voting
proxies in circumstances where Invesco, or any of its affiliates have or may have any conflict of
interest, real or perceived, Invesco has engaged RiskMetrics to provide the proxy analyses, vote
recommendations and voting of proxies.
In the event that (i) RiskMetrics recuses itself on a proxy voting matter and makes no
recommendation or (ii) Invesco decides to override the RiskMetrics vote recommendation, the Proxy
Committee will review the issue and direct RiskMetrics how to vote the proxies as described below.
Proxy Voting for Fixed Income Assets and Stable Value Wrap Agreements
Some of Invescos fixed income clients hold interests in preferred stock of companies and some of
Invescos stable value clients are parties to wrap agreements. From time to time, companies that
have issued preferred stock or that are parties to wrap agreements request that Invescos clients
vote proxies on particular matters. RiskMetrics does not currently provide proxy analysis or vote
recommendations with respect to such proxy votes. Therefore, when a particular matter arises in
this category, the investment team responsible for the particular mandate will review the matter
and make a recommendation to the Proxy Manager as to how to vote the associated proxy. The Proxy
Manager will complete the proxy ballots and send the ballots to the persons or entities identified
in the ballots.
Proxy Committee
The Proxy Committee shall have seven (7) members, which shall include representatives from
portfolio management, operations, and legal/compliance or other functional departments as deemed
appropriate and who are knowledgeable regarding the proxy process. A majority of the members of
the Proxy Committee shall constitute a quorum and the Proxy Committee shall act by a majority vote
of those members in attendance at a meeting called for the purpose of determining how to vote a
particular proxy. The Proxy Committee shall keep minutes of its meetings that shall be kept with
the proxy voting records of Invesco. The Proxy Committee will appoint a Proxy Manager to manage
the proxy voting process, which includes the voting of proxies and the maintenance of appropriate
records.
The Proxy Manager shall call for a meeting of the Proxy Committee (1) when override submissions are
made; and (2) in instances when RiskMetrics has recused itself or has not provided a vote
recommendation with respect to an equity security. At such meeting, the Proxy Committee shall
determine how proxies are to be voted in accordance with the factors set forth in the section
entitled Best Economic Interests of Clients, above.
The Proxy Committee also is responsible for monitoring adherence to these procedures and engaging
in the annual review described in the section entitled RiskMetrics Services, above.
Recusal by RiskMetrics or Failure of RiskMetrics to Make a Recommendation
When RiskMetrics does not make a recommendation on a proxy voting issue or recuses itself due to a
conflict of interest, the Proxy Committee will review the issue and determine whether Invesco has a
material conflict of interest as determined pursuant to the policies and procedures outlined in the
Conflicts of Interest section below. If Invesco determines it does not have a material conflict
of interest, Invesco will direct RiskMetrics how to vote the proxies. If Invesco determines it
does have a material conflict of interest, the Proxy Committee will follow the policies and
procedures set forth in such section.
Override of RiskMetrics Recommendation
There may be occasions where Invesco investment personnel, senior officers or a member of the Proxy
Committee seek to override a RiskMetrics recommendation if they believe that a RiskMetrics
recommendation is not in accordance with the best economic interests of clients. In the event that
an individual listed above in this section disagrees with a RiskMetrics recommendation on a
particular voting issue, the individual shall document in writing the reasons that he/she believes
that the RiskMetrics recommendation is not in accordance with clients best economic interests and
submit such written documentation to the Proxy Manager for consideration by the Proxy Committee
along with the certification attached as Appendix A hereto. Upon review of the documentation and
consultation with the individual and others as the Proxy Committee deems appropriate, the Proxy
Committee may make a determination to override the RiskMetrics voting recommendation if the
Committee determines that it is in the best economic interests of clients and the Committee has
addressed any conflict of interest.
Proxy Committee Meetings
When a Proxy Committee Meeting is called, whether because of a RiskMetrics recusal or request for
override of a RiskMetrics recommendation, the Proxy Committee shall request from the Chief
Compliance Officer as to whether any Invesco person has reported a conflict of interest.
The Proxy Committee shall review the report from the Chief Compliance Officer to determine whether
a real or perceived conflict of interest exists, and the minutes of the Proxy Committee shall:
|
(1)
|
|
describe any real or perceived conflict of interest,
|
|
|
(2)
|
|
determine whether such real or perceived conflict of interest is material,
|
|
|
(3)
|
|
discuss any procedure used to address such conflict of interest,
|
|
|
(4)
|
|
report any contacts from outside parties (other than routine communications
from proxy solicitors), and
|
|
|
(5)
|
|
include confirmation that the recommendation as to how the proxies are to be
voted is in the best economic interests of clients and was made without regard to any
conflict of interest.
|
Based on the above review and determinations, the Proxy Committee will direct RiskMetrics how to
vote the proxies as provided herein.
Certain Proxy Votes May Not Be Cast
In some cases, Invesco may determine that it is not in the best economic interests of clients to
vote proxies. For example, proxy voting in certain countries outside
the United States requires share blocking. Shareholders who wish to vote their proxies must
deposit their shares 7 to 21 days before the date of the meeting with a designated depositary.
During the blocked period, shares to be voted at the meeting cannot be sold until the meeting has
taken place and the shares have been returned to the Custodian/Sub-Custodian bank. In addition,
voting certain international securities may involve unusual costs to clients, some of which may be
related to requirements of having a representative in person attend the proxy meeting. In other
cases, it may not be possible to vote certain proxies despite good faith efforts to do so, for
instance when inadequate notice of the matter is provided. In the instance of loan securities,
voting of proxies typically requires termination of the loan, so it is not usually in the best
economic interests of clients to vote proxies on loaned securities. Invesco typically will not,
but reserves the right to, vote where share blocking restrictions, unusual costs or other barriers
to efficient voting apply. Invesco will not vote if it determines that the cost of voting exceeds
the expected benefit to the client. The Proxy Manager shall record the reason for any proxy not
being voted, which record shall be kept with the proxy voting records of Invesco.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Procedures to Address Conflicts of Interest and Improper Influence
In order to avoid voting proxies in circumstances where Invesco or any of its affiliates have or
may have any conflict of interest, real or perceived, Invesco has contracted with RiskMetrics to
provide proxy analyses, vote recommendations and voting of proxies. Unless noted otherwise by
RiskMetrics, each vote recommendation provided by RiskMetrics to Invesco shall include a
representation from RiskMetrics that RiskMetrics has no conflict of interest with respect to the
vote. In instances where RiskMetrics has recused itself or makes no recommendation on a particular
matter, or if an override submission is requested, the Proxy Committee shall determine how to vote
the proxy and instruct the Proxy Manager accordingly, in which case the conflict of interest
provisions discussed below shall apply.
In effecting the policy of voting proxies in the best economic interests of clients, there may be
occasions where the voting of such proxies may present a real or perceived conflict of interest
between Invesco, as the investment manager, and Invescos clients. For each director, officer and
employee of Invesco (Invesco person), the interests of Invescos clients must come first, ahead
of the interest of Invesco and any Invesco person, including Invescos affiliates. Accordingly, no
Invesco person may put personal benefit, whether tangible or intangible, before the interests of
clients of Invesco or otherwise take advantage of the relationship with Invescos clients.
Personal benefit includes any intended benefit for oneself or any other individual, company,
group or organization of any kind whatsoever, except a benefit for a client of Invesco, as
appropriate. It is imperative that each Invesco person avoid any situation that might compromise,
or call into question, the exercise of fully independent judgment that is in the interests of
Invescos clients.
Occasions may arise where a person or organization involved in the proxy voting process may have a
conflict of interest. A conflict of interest may exist if Invesco has a business relationship with
(or is actively soliciting business from) either the company soliciting the proxy or a third party
that has a material interest in the outcome of a proxy vote or that is actively lobbying for a
particular outcome of a proxy vote. Additional examples of situations where a conflict may exist
include:
|
|
|
Business Relationships where Invesco manages money for a company or an
employee group, manages pension assets or is actively soliciting any such business, or
leases office space from a company;
|
|
|
|
|
Personal Relationships where an Invesco person has a personal
relationship with other proponents of proxy proposals, participants in proxy contests,
corporate directors, or candidates for directorships; and
|
|
|
|
|
Familial Relationships where an Invesco person has a known familial
relationship relating to a company (e.g. a spouse or other relative who serves as a
director of a public company or is employed by the company).
|
In the event that the Proxy Committee determines that Invesco (or an affiliate) has a material
conflict of interest, the Proxy Committee will not take into consideration the relationship giving
rise to the conflict of interest and shall, in its sole discretion, either (a) decide to vote the
proxies pursuant to RiskMetrics general proxy voting guidelines, (b) engage an independent third
party to provide a vote recommendation, or (c) contact Invescos client(s) for direction as to how
to vote the proxies.
In the event an Invesco person has a conflict of interest and has knowledge of such conflict of
interest, it is the responsibility of such Invesco person to disclose the conflict to the Chief
Compliance Officer. When a Proxy Committee meeting is called, the Chief Compliance Officer will
report to the Proxy Committee all real or potential conflicts of interest for the Proxy Committee
to review and determine whether such conflict is material. If the Proxy Committee determines that
such conflict is material and involves a person involved in the proxy voting process, the Proxy
Committee may require such person to recuse himself or herself from participating in the
discussions regarding the proxy vote item and from casting a vote regarding how Invesco should vote
such proxy. An Invesco person will not be considered to have a material conflict of interest if
the Invesco person did not know of the conflict of interest and did not attempt to influence the
outcome of a proxy vote.
In order to ensure compliance with these procedures, the Proxy Manager and each member of the Proxy
Committee shall certify annually as to their compliance with this policy. In addition, any Invesco
person who submits a RiskMetrics override recommendation to the Proxy Committee shall certify as to
their compliance with this policy concurrently with the submission of their override
recommendation. A form of such certification is attached as Appendix A.
In addition, members of the Proxy Committee must notify Invescos Chief Compliance Officer, with
impunity and without fear of retribution or retaliation, of any direct, indirect or perceived
improper influence exerted by any Invesco person or by an affiliated companys representatives with
regard to how Invesco should vote proxies. The Chief Compliance Officer will investigate the
allegations and will report his or her findings to the Invesco Risk Management Committee. In the
event that it is determined that improper influence was exerted, the Risk Management Committee will

Portfolio Manager Fund Holdings and Information on Other Managed Accounts
Invescos portfolio managers develop investment models which are used in connection with the
management of certain Invesco Funds as well as other mutual funds for which Invesco or an affiliate
acts as sub-adviser, other pooled investment vehicles that are not registered mutual funds, and
other accounts managed for organizations and individuals. The following chart reflects the
portfolio managers investments in the Funds that they manage. The chart also reflects information
regarding accounts other than the Funds for which each portfolio manager has day-to-day management
responsibilities. Accounts are grouped into three categories: (i) other registered investment
companies, (ii) other pooled investment vehicles and (iii) other accounts. To the extent that any
of these accounts pay advisory fees that are based on account performance (performance-based fees),
information on those accounts is specifically broken out. In addition, any assets denominated in
foreign currencies have been converted into U.S. Dollars using the exchange rates as of the
applicable date.

Potential Conflicts of Interest
|
|
|
1
|
|
This column reflects investments in a
Funds shares owned directly by a portfolio manager or beneficially owned by a
portfolio manager (as determined in accordance with Rule 16a-1(a) (2) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). A portfolio manager is presumed
to be a beneficial owner of securities that are held by his or her immediate
family members sharing the same household.
|
Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day
management responsibilities with respect to more than one Fund or other account. More
specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple Funds and/or other accounts may be presented
with one or more of the following potential conflicts:
|
|
The management of multiple Funds and/or other accounts may result
in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the
management of each Fund and/or other account. The Adviser and
each Sub-Adviser seek to manage such competing interests for the
time and attention of portfolio managers by having portfolio
managers focus on a particular investment discipline. Most other
accounts managed by a portfolio manager are managed using the same
investment models that are used in connection with the management
of the Funds.
|
|
|
|
If a portfolio manager identifies a limited investment opportunity
which may be suitable for more than one Fund or other account, a
Fund may not be able to take full advantage of that opportunity
due to an allocation of filled purchase or sale orders across all
eligible Funds and other accounts. To deal with these situations,
the Adviser, each Sub-Adviser and the Funds have adopted
procedures for allocating portfolio transactions across multiple
accounts.
|
|
|
|
The Adviser and each Sub-Adviser determine which broker to use to
execute each order for securities transactions for the Funds,
consistent with its duty to seek best execution of the
transaction. However, for certain other accounts (such as mutual
funds for which Invesco or an affiliate acts as sub-adviser, other
pooled investment vehicles that are not registered mutual funds,
and other accounts managed for organizations and individuals), the
Adviser and each Sub-Adviser may be limited by the client with
respect to the selection of brokers or may be instructed to direct
trades through a particular broker. In these cases, trades for a
Fund in a particular security may be placed separately from,
rather than aggregated with, such other accounts. Having separate
transactions with respect to a security may temporarily affect the
market price of the security or the execution of the transaction,
or both, to the possible detriment of the Fund or other account(s)
involved.
|
|
|
|
Finally, the appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where
the Adviser or Sub-Adviser has an incentive, such as a
performance-based management fee, which relates to the management
of one Fund or account but not all Funds and accounts for which a
portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities.
|
The Adviser, each Sub-Adviser, and the Funds have adopted certain compliance procedures which
are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such
procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.
Description of Compensation Structure
For the Adviser and each affiliated Sub-Adviser
The Adviser and each Sub-Adviser seek to maintain a compensation program that is competitively
positioned to attract and retain high-caliber investment professionals. Portfolio managers receive
a base salary, an incentive bonus opportunity and an equity compensation opportunity. Portfolio
manager compensation is reviewed and may be modified each year as appropriate to reflect changes in
the market, as well as to adjust the factors used to determine bonuses to promote competitive Fund
performance. The Adviser and each Sub-Adviser evaluate competitive market compensation by reviewing
compensation survey results conducted by an independent third party of investment industry
compensation. Each portfolio managers compensation consists of the following three elements:
Base Salary.
Each portfolio manager is paid a base salary. In setting the base salary, the
Adviser and each Sub-Advisers intention is to be competitive in light of the particular portfolio
managers experience and responsibilities.
Annual Bonus.
The portfolio managers are eligible, along with other employees of the Adviser
and each Sub-Adviser, to participate in a discretionary year-end bonus pool. The Compensation
Committee of Invesco Ltd. reviews and approves the amount of the bonus pool available for the
Adviser and each of the Sub-Advisers investment centers. The Compensation Committee considers
investment performance and financial results in its review. In addition, while having no
direct impact on individual bonuses, assets under management are considered when determining the
starting bonus funding levels. Each portfolio manager is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus
which is based on quantitative (i.e. investment performance) and non-quantitative factors (which
may include, but are not limited to, individual performance, risk management and teamwork).
Each portfolio managers compensation is linked to the pre-tax investment performance of the
Funds/accounts managed by the portfolio manager as described in Table 1 below.

Invesco Senior Secureds bonus is based on annual measures of equity return and standard tests
of collateralization performance.
High investment performance (against applicable peer group and/or benchmarks) would deliver
compensation generally associated with top pay in the industry (determined by reference to the
third-party provided compensation survey information) and poor investment performance (versus
applicable peer group) would result in low bonus compared to the applicable peer group or no bonus
at all. These decisions are reviewed and approved collectively by senior leadership which has
responsibility for executing the compensation approach across the organization.
Equity-Based Compensation.
Portfolio managers may be granted an award that allows them to
select receipt of shares of certain Invesco Funds with a vesting period as well as common shares
and/or restricted shares of Invesco Ltd. stock from pools determined from time to time by the
|

(a)
|
|

processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of
the Securities and Exchange Commission; and (2) that material information relating to the
Registrant is made known to the PEO and PFO as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
