When evaluating whether a fund is appropriate for your investment goals, fund performance, fees and expenses are only a few of the criteria you should consider. You may also consider the investment objective and strategy to determine if the fund's objectives match your own, review the fund's portfolio composition / characteristics to determine how well the fund consistently meets its objective and review the fund's risk exposure to ensure you are comfortable with the types of risk to which the fund is subject.

Word about Risk
Some of the principal risks associated with investing in this Fund include:
General Investment Risk - While the portfolio management team seeks to mitigate investment risks, there can be no assurance that Investors will not lose all or a portion of their investment in the Fund. Investors should not subscribe to or invest in the Fund unless they can readily bear the consequences of such loss.
Market Risk - The prices of securities held by the Fund may fluctuate to the detriment of the Fund.
Equity Securities Risk - Prices of equity securities change in response to many factors including the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer, the value of its assets, general economic conditions, interest rates, investor perceptions and market liquidity.
Concentration Risk - Because a large percentage of the Fund’s assets may be invested in a limited number of securities, a change in the value of the securities could significantly affect the value of your investment in the Fund.
Derivatives Risk - The Fund may use enhanced investment techniques such as derivatives. The principal risk of derivatives is that the fluctuations in their values may not correlate perfectly with the values of their underlying assets. Derivatives are subject to counterparty risk—the risk that the other party will not perform its obligations under the transaction. For some derivatives, it is possible to lose more than the amount invested in the derivative.
Leverage Risk - Leveraging entails risks such as magnifying changes in the value of the portfolio’s securities.
Interest Rate Risk - Interest rate risk refers to the risk that bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise; conversely, bond prices generally rise as interest rates fall.
Credit Risk - Credit risk is the risk of loss on an investment due to the deterioration of an issuer's financial health. Such a deterioration of financial health may result in a reduction of the credit rating of the issuer's securities and may lead to the issuer's inability to honor its contractual obligations including making timely payment of interest and principal.
Foreign Securities Risk - Foreign securities have additional risks including exchange rate changes, political and economic upheaval, the relative lack of information, relatively low market liquidity and the potential lack of strict financial and accounting controls and standards.
Currency Risk - The U.S. dollar value of the Fund’s foreign investments will be affected by changes in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the currencies in which those investments are traded.
Investment Vehicle Risk - The Fund will invest a substantial portion of its assets in other affiliated and unaffiliated investment vehicles and will be is subject to the underlying risk of those investment vehicles’ portfolio securities.
Active Trading Risk - The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading of portfolio securities to achieve its investment objective. If the Fund does trade in this way, it may incur increased costs, which can lower the actual return of the Fund.
Management Risk - There is no guarantee that the investment techniques and risk analyses used by the Fund’s portfolio managers will produce the desired results.
Accounts of Affiliates of the Investment Manager - Affiliates of the Trustee or the Sub-Adviser may trade in securities at the same time as the Fund and, therefore, may potentially affect prices or available opportunities.
No Registration Under the Investment Company Act, the Securities Act or State Securities Laws - The Fund will not be registered with the SEC as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 in reliance upon an exemption from the Investment Company Act. Units of the Fund will not be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission in reliance on the exemptive provisions of Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, nor will it be registered with any state securities regulator.
No Registration with the CFTC - Since the Fund may purchase, sell or trade exchange-traded futures contracts, options thereon, and other Commodity Interests, the Fund may be viewed as subject to regulation as a commodity pool under the U.S. Commodity Exchange Act and the rules of the CFTC. However, pursuant to CFTC Rule 4.5, the Trustee is exempt from having to register as a commodity pool operator with respect to the Fund.

Important Information
This product is a bank collective trust fund for which Invesco National Trust Company serves as trustee and investment manager. The fund is not FDIC-insured or registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Please see the fund's Declaration of Trust and recent financial statements (available upon request from your retirement plan sponsor) for important information before investing.

Material presented is compiled from sources believed to be reliable and current, but accuracy cannot be guaranteed. This does not constitute an offer or solicitation of any security or product, nor constitute a recommendation of the suitability of any investment strategy for a particular investor.

Total return assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains for the periods indicated. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Net performance has been calculated after the deduction of operating expenses applicable to the fund and after the deduction of the standard investment management fee applicable to the fund. However, since individual plan investment management fee schedules vary, an individual plan's net performance may be higher or lower than the standard net performance shown here. Net of fee performance does not include any client service or administrative fees payable to third parties at the discretion of the plan sponsor.
Gross performance has been calculated before the deduction of investment management fees, but after the deduction of operating expenses applicable to the fund.
The monthly adjusted returns are compounded and then annualized to compute the long-term results. Individual Plan performance may vary depending upon the timing of contributions and withdrawals. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that, when redeemed, an investor's shares may be worth more or less than when originally purchased.

1 The Standard Management Fee listed is the standard fee used to calculate net performance. The actual investment management fee varies for each Plan based on the fee negotiated with the Plan. This negotiated fee can fluctuate daily based on the various asset level breakpoints reached at the time the daily fee accrual is calculated for each Plan.
2 The expense ratio is year to date, annualized and unaudited. For an audited annual expense ratio please refer to the fund's annual report for the prior year (available upon request from your retirement plan sponsor). Fund expenses may include: portfolio valuation and accounting, transfer agency, custody, annual report and audit fees.
3 The Fund uses an unmanaged composite benchmark comprised of the MSCI World® Index (USD) Index and the JPM Global Government Bonds Index (USD). An investment cannot be made directly in an index.
4 Portfolio composition statistics are subject to change and current holdings may differ. It should not be assumed that any of the holdings discussed were or will prove to be profitable, or that the investment recommendations or decisions we make in the future will be profitable or will equal the investment performance of the holdings.
Investment Products offered are: NOT FDIC-Insured, May Lose Value, Not Bank Guaranteed.
