Important Notice To Van Kampen Closed-End Fund Shareholders

Begin box 2

Questions & Answers

Although we recommend that you read the complete Joint Proxy Statement, we have provided for your convenience a brief overview of the issues to be voted on at the meeting.

Q. Why is a special meeting of shareholders being held?

A. The special meeting of shareholders is being held to approve new investment advisory agreements and, where applicable, a new investment subadvisory agreement.

Q. Why are shareholders being asked to approve new investment advisory agreements and, where applicable, a new investment subadvisory agreement?

A. The current investment adviser for each Van Kampen closed-end fund (each a “Fund,” collectively, the “Funds”) is Van Kampen Asset Management (the “Adviser”). The Adviser is a wholly owned subsidiary of Van Kampen Investments Inc. (“Van Kampen Investments”), which is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley. On October 19, 2009, Morgan Stanley entered into a definitive agreement to sell substantially all of its retail asset management business, including Van Kampen Investments, to Invesco Ltd., a leading independent global investment management company (the “Transaction”). As a result of this Transaction, the asset management business of Van Kampen Investments will be combined with that of Invesco Advisers, Inc. (“Invesco”), a subsidiary of Invesco Ltd., and it is proposed that Invesco become investment adviser to each Fund.

The closing of the Transaction (currently expected to be in mid-2010) will constitute an “assignment” of the current investment advisory agreement(s) for each Fund and, therefore, pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), will result in the automatic termination of each Fund’s current investment advisory agreement and, where applicable, current investment subadvisory agreement. The 1940 Act requires that holders of common shares of beneficial interest and, where applicable, the holders of preferred shares of beneficial interest of each Fund (collectively, the “Shareholders”) approve the new investment advisory agreements described below and, where applicable, a new investment subadvisory agreement.

Each Fund’s Board of Trustees and management are recommending Shareholders approve a new investment advisory arrangement between each Fund and Invesco, which arrangement includes (a) a new investment advisory agreement with Invesco, which agreement allows Invesco to enter into subadvisory arrangements and delegate any or all of its rights, duties or obligations to one or more wholly owned affiliates of Invesco Ltd. as subadviser and (b) that Invesco enter into a master investment subadvisory agreement with several of Invesco Ltd.’s wholly owned affiliates (the new investment advisory agreement and the master subadvisory agreement are referred to herein collectively as the “New Advisory Agreements”). In addition to the New Advisory Agreements, the Board of Trustees and management of Van Kampen Dynamic Credit Opportunities Fund (“VTA”) are recommending Shareholders of VTA approve a new investment subadvisory agreement between Invesco and Avenue Europe International Management, L.P. (“Avenue Europe”), such that Avenue Europe can continue to provide investment subadvisory services to VTA (the “New VTA Subadvisory Agreement”).

As part of the Transaction, it is also expected that Invesco and its affiliates will provide each

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

End box 2

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH

Begin box 2 XBRL Pagebreak End

Fund with administrative and client servicing services that are currently provided by Van Kampen Investments and its affiliates.

Q. How will the Transaction affect the Funds?

A. Your investment in a Fund will not change as a result of the Transaction. You will own the same amount of shares in your Fund and the net asset value of your investment will not change as a result of the Transaction. The Transaction will not result in any change to your Fund’s investment objectives or principal investment strategies. Furthermore, the portfolio management team for each Fund, other than Van Kampen Bond Fund (“VBF”) and Van Kampen High Income Trust II (“VLT”), is expected to remain the same after the Transaction.

Q. How do the New Advisory Agreements compare with the current investment advisory agreements?

A. The New Advisory Agreements and the current investment advisory agreements are similar and, with respect to VTA, the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement and the current VTA subadvisory agreement are similar. The advisory fee charged to each Fund will not change. Additionally, except for VBF and VLT, the portfolio management team currently managing each Fund is expected to continue to manage the Fund after the Transaction.

Q. Will my Fund’s expenses increase as a result of the Transaction?

A. No. The expenses that you pay as a Shareholder of a Fund will not increase for at least two years from the date of the closing of the Transaction, as Invesco will provide a two-year contractual guaranty that will limit the total expense ratio of each Fund to such Fund’s total expense ratio prior to the Transaction.

Q. Will my vote make a difference?

A. Yes, your vote is important and will make a difference no matter how many shares you own. We encourage all Shareholders to participate in the governance of their Funds.

Q. How does the Board of Trustees recommend that I vote?

A. The Board of Trustees recommends that you vote “FOR” approval of the New Advisory Agreements for your Fund and, with respect to VTA, “FOR” approval of the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement.

Q. How do I vote my proxy?

A. You may cast your vote by mail, phone or internet. To vote by mail, please mark your vote on the enclosed proxy card and sign, date and return the card in the postage-paid envelope provided. If you choose to vote via phone or internet, please refer to the instructions found on the proxy card accompanying this Joint Proxy Statement. To vote by phone or internet, you will need the “control number” that appears on the proxy card.

Q. Why does the Joint Proxy Statement list several closed-end funds?

A. The Funds have a similar proposal and it is cost effective to have a Joint Proxy Statement and one meeting.

Q. Where do I call for more information?

A. Please call Van Kampen’s Client Relations Department at (800) 341-2929 or visit our website at www.vankampen.com, where you can send us an e-mail message by selecting “Contact Us.”

JOINT PROXY STATEMENT

VAN KAMPEN CLOSED-END FUNDS

522 Fifth Avenue New York, New York 10036 (800) 341-2929

JOINT SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

April 16, 2010

link1 "INTRODUCTION" INTRODUCTION

This Joint Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the respective Board of Trustees (the “Trustees” or the “Board”) of each of the Van Kampen Closed-End Funds listed on Annex A to this Joint Proxy Statement (the “Funds”) of proxies to be voted at a Joint Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Funds, and all adjournments thereof (the “Meeting”), to be held at the offices of Van Kampen Investments Inc., 522 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10036, on Friday, April 16, 2010, at 9:00 a.m. The approximate mailing date of this Joint Proxy Statement and accompanying form of proxy is March 1, 2010.

Participating in the Meeting are holders of common shares of beneficial interest (the “Common Shares”) and, where applicable, the holders of preferred shares of beneficial interest (the “Preferred Shares”) of each Fund. The Common Shares and the Preferred Shares of the Funds sometimes are referred to herein collectively as the “Shares” and holders of such Shares are referred to herein collectively as “Shareholders.” The Meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the Shareholders of the Funds because the Shareholders of the Funds are generally expected to consider and vote on similar matters. The Board has determined that the use of a joint proxy statement for the Meeting is in the best interest of the Shareholders of each of the Funds. In the event that a Shareholder of any Fund present at the Meeting objects to the holding of a joint meeting and moves for an adjournment of the meeting of such Fund to a time immediately after the Meeting so that such Fund’s meeting may be held separately, the persons named as proxies will vote in favor of the adjournment.

Annex A lists the abbreviated name and stock symbol by which the Funds sometimes are referred to in this Joint Proxy Statement. Please refer to Annex A for any questions you may have regarding whether your Fund is participating at the Meeting, defined terms relating to the Funds and abbreviated Fund names.

Proposal	Affected Funds
1 (a) New investment advisory agreement with Invesco
Advisers, Inc. (see Proposal 1(a) herein)	All Funds
(b) New master subadvisory agreement between
Invesco Advisers, Inc. and its affiliates (see Proposal 1(b)

International Management, L.P. (see Proposal 2 herein)	VTA only

Each Fund will furnish, without charge, a copy of its most recent annual report (and the most recent semiannual report succeeding the annual report, if any) to any shareholder upon request. Any such request should be directed to the respective Fund by calling (800) 341-2929 or by writing to the respective Fund at 1 Parkview Plaza — Suite 100, PO Box 5555, Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois 60181-5555.

Voting

The Board has fixed the close of business on February 18, 2010 as the record date (the “Record Date”) for the determination of Shareholders of each Fund entitled to vote at the Meeting. The number of issued and outstanding Common Shares and Preferred Shares of each Fund as of the Record Date is shown in Annex B to this Joint Proxy Statement.

Shareholders of a Fund on the Record Date are entitled to one vote per Share with respect to any proposal submitted to the Shareholders of the Fund, with no Share having cumulative voting rights.

Each Fund’s new investment advisory agreement and new master subadvisory agreement as described in Proposals 1(a) and (b) below and, with respect to VTA, the new investment subadvisory agreement as described in Proposal 2 below, must be approved by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the respective Fund. The “vote of the majority of the outstanding voting securities” is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) as the lesser of the vote of (i) 67% or more of the voting securities of a Fund entitled to vote thereon present at the Meeting or represented by proxy if the holders of more than 50% of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy; or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund entitled to vote thereon. The holders of Common Shares and Preferred Shares of each Fund will have equal voting rights (i.e., one vote per share) and will vote as a single class with respect to each proposal described herein.

The Board of Trustees of each Fund recommends that you cast your vote “FOR” approval of a new investment advisory agreement with Invesco Advisers, Inc., “FOR” approval of a new master subadvisory agreement between Invesco Advisers, Inc. and its affiliates and, with respect to VTA, “FOR” approval of a new investment subadvisory agreement with Avenue Europe International Management, L.P.

An unfavorable vote on a proposal by the Shareholders of one Fund will not affect the implementation of such proposal by another Fund if the proposal is approved by the Shareholders of the other Fund. In the event the favorable vote is not obtained for a Fund or Funds, the Board will consider other alternatives for such Fund(s), which may include interim contracts or other actions as described herein.

All Shares represented by properly executed proxies received prior to the Meeting will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions marked thereon. Proxies received prior to the Meeting on which no vote is indicated will be voted “FOR” each proposal as to which they are entitled to be voted.

Abstentions do not constitute votes “For” and will have the same effect as votes “Against” a Proposal. Broker non-votes (i.e., where a nominee, such as a broker, holding shares for beneficial owners responds but does not vote on a proposal because the nominee lacks beneficial owner direction or does not exercise discretionary authority) do not constitute votes “For” or “Against” a Proposal and are disregarded in determining the votes cast when the voting requirement for a Proposal is based on achieving a percentage of the voting securities present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting. Broker non-votes do not constitute votes “For” and will have the same effect as votes “Against” when the voting requirement is based on achieving a percentage of the outstanding voting securities. Because there are no proposals to be presented at the meeting on which broker-dealers may exercise discretion in voting their clients’ shares, the Funds do not anticipate receiving any broker non-votes.

Broker-dealer firms holding Shares in “street name” for the benefit of their customers and clients will request the instructions of such customers and clients on how to vote their Shares on the Proposal. Except as described below regarding preferred shares, under current interpretations of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), broker-dealers that are members of the NYSE and that have not received instructions from a customer may not vote such customer’s Shares on a non-routine proposal, such as Proposals 1(a) and (b) and Proposal 2 herein. Broker-dealers who are not members of the NYSE may be subject to other rules, which may or may not permit them to vote your shares without instruction. Therefore, you are encouraged to contact your broker and record your voting instructions. A signed proxy card or other authorization by a beneficial owner of Shares that does not specify how the beneficial owner’s Shares are to be voted on a proposal will be deemed to be an instruction to vote such Shares in favor of such proposal. If any other business is brought before the Meeting, your Shares will be voted at your proxy holder’s discretion.

Preferred shares held in “street name” as to which voting instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote as of one business day before the Meeting, or, if adjourned, one business day before the day to which the Meeting is adjourned, and that would otherwise be treated as “broker non-votes” may, pursuant to Rule 452 of the New York Stock Exchange, be voted by the broker on a proposal in the same proportion as the votes cast by all preferred Shareholders of such

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

Fund who have voted on that item. Rule 452 permits proportionate voting of preferred shares with respect to a particular proposal if, among other things, (i) holders of common shares approve the proposal, (ii) a minimum of 30% of the preferred shares outstanding has been voted by the holders of such preferred shares with respect to such proposal and (iii) less than 10% of the preferred shares outstanding has been voted by the holders of such preferred shares against such item.

A majority of the outstanding Shares of a Fund entitled to vote must be present in person or by proxy to have a quorum for such Fund to conduct business at the Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will be deemed present for quorum purposes.

Shareholders who execute proxies may revoke them at any time before they are voted by filing with the respective Fund a written notice of revocation, by delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending the Meeting and voting in person.

The Funds know of no business other than that mentioned in Proposals 1(a) and (b) and Proposal 2 of the Notice that will be presented for consideration at the Meeting. If any other matters are properly presented, it is the intention of the persons named on the enclosed proxy to vote proxies in accordance with their best judgment. In the event a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient votes to approve any of the proposals with respect to one or more Funds or proposals are not received, proxies (including abstentions and broker non-votes, if any) would be voted in favor of one or more adjournments of the Meeting of the concerned Fund with respect to such proposal to permit further solicitation of proxies, provided they determine that such an adjournment and additional solicitation is reasonable and in the interest of Shareholders based on a consideration of all relevant factors, including the nature of the relevant proposal, the percentage of votes then cast, the percentage of negative votes then cast, the nature of the proposed solicitation activities and the nature of the reasons for such further solicitation.

BACKGROUND AND THE TRANSACTION

On October 19, 2009, Morgan Stanley entered into a definitive agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”) to sell substantially all of its retail asset management business, including Van Kampen Investments, Inc. (“Van Kampen Investments”), to Invesco Ltd., a leading independent global investment management company (the “Transaction”). Under the terms of the Transaction Agreement, Invesco Ltd. will receive a diversified business with approximately $119 billion in assets under management across equity, fixed income, alternatives and unit investment trusts and Morgan Stanley will receive cash and a minority interest in Invesco Ltd. valued at $1.5 billion in the aggregate. As a result of the Transaction, the asset management business of Van Kampen Investments will be combined with that of Invesco Advisers, Inc. (“Invesco”), a subsidiary of Invesco Ltd., and, as described in Proposals 1(a) and (b) and Proposal 2 below, it is proposed that Invesco become investment adviser to each Fund.

XBRL Pagebreak Begin

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

The closing of the Transaction (currently expected to be in mid-2010) will constitute an “assignment” of the current investment advisory agreement(s) for each Fund and, therefore, pursuant to the 1940 Act, will result in the automatic termination of each Fund’s current investment advisory agreement and, where applicable, current investment subadvisory agreement. The 1940 Act requires that Shareholders of each Fund approve the new investment advisory agreements described below and, where applicable, new subadvisory agreement. As discussed in more detail under Proposals 1(a) and (b) below, each Fund’s Board of Trustees and management are recommending Shareholders approve a new investment advisory arrangement between each Fund and Invesco, which arrangement includes (a) a new investment advisory agreement with Invesco, which agreement allows Invesco to enter into subadvisory agreements and delegate any and all of its rights, duties or obligations to one or more wholly owned affiliates of Invesco Ltd. as subadvisers (“Invesco Sub-Advisers”), listed in Annex C, and (b) a master subadvisory agreement (the “Master Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between Invesco and the Invesco Sub-Advisers. The new investment advisory agreement and the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement are referred to herein collectively as the “New Advisory Agreements”. If Shareholders of a Fund do not approve the investment advisory agreement with Invesco for such Fund and/or Shareholders of a Fund do not approve the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement for such Fund, the Board of Trustees will consider other alternatives for such Fund. If Shareholders of a Fund approve only the investment advisory agreement with Invesco or only the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement for such Fund, notwithstanding such approval, the approved agreement might not be implemented and the Board of Trustees will consider other alternatives for such Fund.

As discussed in more detail under Proposal 2 below, in addition to the New Advisory Agreements, the Board of Trustees and management of VTA are recommending Shareholders of VTA approve a new investment subadvisory contract between Invesco and Avenue Europe International Management, L.P. (the “VTA Subadviser”), such that the VTA Subadviser can continue to provide investment subadvisory services to VTA (the “New VTA Subadvisory Agreement”).

The Transaction, which has been approved by the boards of directors of Invesco and Morgan Stanley, is subject to customary regulatory, client and fund shareholder approvals. Prior to the closing of the Transaction, the shareholders of Van Kampen funds included in the Transaction (including the Funds and other funds advised by the Adviser) and certain Morgan Stanley funds must approve certain proposals required for such Funds’ participation in the Transaction. One condition to the closing of the Transaction is that clients and/or fund shareholders representing a certain percentage of the total assets transferred to Invesco approve the proposals related to the investment advisory arrangements between such investors’ funds and Invesco. Closing of the Transaction and Shareholder approval by a Fund’s Shareholders are conditions precedent before effectiveness of the New Advisory Agreements and New VTA Subadvisory Agreement as described herein.

Invesco and its Affiliates

Invesco Ltd. is a leading independent global investment management company that provides a comprehensive array of investment products and services for retail, institutional and high-net-worth clients around the world. Operating in 20 countries, Invesco Ltd. had $423.1 billion in assets under management as of December 31, 2009.

Today, Invesco, together with its subsidiaries, advises or manages over 225 investment portfolios, encompassing a broad range of investment objectives.

Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act

As described above, the closing of the Transaction will constitute a change of control and thus an “assignment” of the current investment advisory agreement(s) for each Fund and will result in the automatic termination of each Fund’s current investment advisory agreement and, where applicable, current investment subadvisory agreement. Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act is a safe harbor that provides that, when a change in control of an investment adviser occurs, the investment adviser or any of its affiliated persons may receive any amount or benefit in connection with the change in control as long as two conditions are met. The first condition specifies that no “unfair burden” may be imposed on the investment company as a result of a transaction relating to the change in control, or any express or implied terms, conditions or understandings. The term “unfair burden,” as defined in the 1940 Act, includes any arrangement during the two-year period after the change in control transaction whereby the investment adviser (or predecessor or successor adviser), or any interested person of any such investment adviser, receives or is entitled to receive any compensation, directly or indirectly, from the investment company or its security holders (other than fees for bona fide investment advisory or other services) or from any person in connection with the purchase or sale of securities or other property to, from, or on behalf of the investment company (other than fees for bona fide principal underwriting services). The second condition specifies that, during the three-year period immediately following consummation of the change of control transaction, at least 75% of the investment company’s board of directors or trustees must not be “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the investment adviser or predecessor adviser. If either condition is not met, the safe harbor is not available.

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

Consistent with the first condition of Section 15(f), Morgan Stanley and Invesco have agreed to refrain from imposing or seeking to impose, for a period of two years after the closing of the Transaction, any “unfair burden” on the Funds. With respect to the second condition of Section 15(f), each Board of the VK Funds currently satisfies the 75% requirement; and Invesco has agreed with Morgan Stanley to use their reasonable best efforts to ensure continued satisfaction of the 75% requirement for the three-year period following the close of the Transaction.

Board Considerations

At several in-person and telephonic meetings held in August, September, October, November and December 2009, the Board discussed and ultimately approved the New Advisory Agreements and, with respect to VTA, the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement.

At these meetings, the Board considered information provided by Morgan Stanley, Van Kampen Investments and Invesco regarding, among other things: Invesco’s organization and personnel; business strategy; ownership structure; financial strength; affiliations (including other asset management affiliations); asset management practices and capabilities; legal and regulatory matters; and compliance matters. Emphasis during these meetings focused on Invesco being a global investment management leader with momentum in the U.S. retail market, and that the combination of Invesco and Morgan Stanley’s retail asset management business, including Van Kampen Investments, can bring additional value to the Funds’ Shareholders. The parties discussed Invesco’s independence as a publicly traded entity, its strategic focus solely on the investment management business (including Invesco’s investment reputation, broad product line, service quality, industry relationships and objective of putting investors’ interests first) and its significant depth in resources, diversification, performance and experience. The parties discussed how the current Invesco and Van Kampen Investments businesses compare and complement each other and the synergies of the combined organization which management believes will benefit the Funds’ Shareholders. The parties discussed aligning the Funds and other funds currently advised by the Adviser together with other funds and products currently advised by Invesco and its affiliates towards using a single, common operating platform (which includes, among other things, common investment operating platforms, common global performance measurement and risk analysis, and common compliance policies and procedures). Thus, in addition to the new advisory agreements discussed in Proposals 1(a) and 1(b) and Proposal 2 below, it is also expected that Invesco and its affiliates will provide each Fund with administrative and client servicing services that are currently provided by Van Kampen Investment and its affiliates. The parties discussed these other services, and efforts to capitalize on synergy opportunities from combined scale for the benefit of Shareholders, leveraging operating best practices across the organization and the commitment to quality services.

The parties discussed the challenges of getting the funds on a common operating platform, with particular emphasis on ensuring portfolio management operations properly migrate to Invesco as part of the Transaction, to ensure uninterrupted services

for shareholders and the opportunity for the Funds to recognize savings from economies of scale when such savings occur. The parties discussed at length the transition to a new portfolio management team employed by Invesco for VBF, where the existing portfolio managers employed by Morgan Stanley and its affiliates were not part of the Transaction and thus were not migrating to Invesco, emphasizing the Invesco team’s background, experience, performance record on similar products, their buy/sell strategy and their ability to manage such funds consistent with VBF’s current investment objective and policies. The parties discussed the expected changes in the portfolio management team for VLT where only one of the two current portfolio managers are migrating to Invesco.

The Board discussed with Morgan Stanley, Van Kampen Investments and Invesco the Transaction and its foreseeable short- and long-term effects on the Funds and Shareholders. The members of the Board who are not “interested persons” of the Funds, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act, conferred separately with their counsel and a consultant (each engaged specifically in connection with their review of the Transaction) about the Transaction on several occasions during the meetings conducted from August through December, 2009.

In connection with the Board’s review of the Transaction, Morgan Stanley, Van Kampen Investments and Invesco advised the Board about a variety of matters, including, but not limited to:

(1) the reputation, financial strength and resources of Invesco Ltd., one of the world’s leading independent global investment management firms;

(2) there is not expected to be any diminution in the nature, quality and extent of services provided to the Funds and Shareholders as a result of the Transaction;

(3) the unchanged investment objectives, principal investment strategies and risks of each Fund after the Transaction and expectations that the same portfolio managers currently managing each Fund, except for VBF and VLT, will continue managing such Fund after the Transaction;

(4) the transition from current service providers to post-Transaction service providers will not have any foreseeable short-term or long-term adverse effect on Shareholders;

(5) Invesco will provide a two-year contractual guaranty that will limit the total expense ratio of each Fund to such Fund’s total expense ratio prior to the Transaction (in determining the obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following expenses are not taken into account: (i) interest, (ii) taxes, (iii) dividend expense on short sales, (iv) extraordinary or non-routine items and (v) expenses that a Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an offset arrangement);

(6) Morgan Stanley and Invesco will pay all expenses of the Funds in connection with the Transaction;

(7) the members of the current Board will continue to oversee the Funds after the Transaction (it is anticipated that, upon the later of closing the Transaction or

Shareholder approval of a Fund’s new advisory agreement(s), such Fund’s Board would expand to add one additional trustee representing Invesco senior management who would be appointed by the current Trustees). (Note that the Board of each Fund and the Boards of many of the other funds advised by the Adviser currently have the same members in common across all such Boards, and that these Boards currently have common director/trustee compensation and benefit arrangements, including deferred compensation plans and retirement plans, across all of the those Boards and their respective underlying funds. Whereas the members of the current Board will continue to oversee the Funds after the Transaction, it is expected that the Board composition of most of the other funds currently advised by the Adviser that are also part of the Transaction will be changed post-Transaction. In connection with these changes, among other things, it is anticipated that the Funds and other funds currently advised by the Adviser will terminate their deferred compensation plans and retirement plans and that the Funds will pay out the amounts deferred and/or accrued on the Funds’ books through the date of such termination and additional amounts not accrued to date in the amount of the net present value of the benefits the Board members would have received had they served until their normal retirement date on all such funds plus an amount equal to taxes on such payment. Such additional amounts payable to any Board members are part of the overall expenses of the Transaction and will not be paid by the Funds’ shareholders.);

(8) Invesco Ltd.’s current operations and business strategy are consistent with, and complementary to, the successful operation of its subsidiary, Invesco;

(9) Invesco Ltd. and Invesco have no affiliations that would adversely affect the Funds or Shareholders;

(10) Shareholders will face no adverse tax consequences as a result of the Transaction; and

(11) Invesco and Morgan Stanley have agreed to conduct, and use reasonable best efforts to cause their affiliates to conduct, their respective businesses in compliance with Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act.

In its deliberations, the Board considered all information it received, as described above, as well as advice and analysis from its counsel and consultant. The Board considered the Transaction as a whole and the impact of the Transaction on each Fund and their respective Shareholders. The Board’s further considerations relating specifically to its approval of the New Advisory Agreements and the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement are discussed below in the sections entitled “Proposal 1(a): Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement and Proposal 1(b): Approval of Master Sub-Advisory Agreement” and “Proposal 2: Approval of VTA Investment Subadvisory Agreement” respectively.

Interim Advisory Agreements

In the event the closing of the Transaction precedes obtaining Shareholder approval of the New Advisory Agreements for a Fund, and, with respect to VTA, the New VTA

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

Subadvisory Agreement, it is anticipated the Fund would follow Rule 15a-4 under the 1940 Act which permits the Fund’s Board (including a majority of the Independent Trustees) to approve and enter into an interim advisory agreement (“Interim Advisory Agreement”) pursuant to which an interim adviser may serve as investment adviser to a Fund for up to 150 days following the termination of the current advisory agreement.

In approving an Interim Advisory Agreement, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, would need to determine that (A) the scope and quality of services to be provided to each Fund under the Interim Advisory Agreement would be at least equivalent to the scope and quality of services provided under the current advisory agreement; (B) the compensation to be received by the interim adviser under the Interim Advisory Agreement is no greater than the compensation the Adviser/VTA Subadviser would have received under the current advisory agreement; and (C) the Interim Advisory Agreement has the same terms and conditions as the current advisory agreement except differences in the terms and conditions the Board, including a majority of trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Funds, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act, finds to be immaterial; provided, however, such Interim Advisory Agreement must change the effective date, termination date and compensation arrangements such that:

(i) the Interim Advisory Agreement terminates upon the earlier of the 150th day following the closing of the Transaction or the effectiveness of the New Advisory Agreements and, with respect to VTA, the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement;

(ii) the Board or a majority of a Fund’s outstanding voting securities may terminate the Interim Advisory Agreement at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on not more than 10 calendar days’ written notice to the interim adviser;

(iii) the compensation earned by the interim adviser under the Interim Advisory Agreement will be held in an interest-bearing escrow account with a Fund’s custodian or a bank;

(iv) if a majority of a Fund’s outstanding voting securities approve such Fund’s New Advisory Agreements and, with respect to VTA, the VTA Subadvisory Agreement, by the end of the 150-day period, the amount in the escrow account (including interest earned) will be paid to the interim adviser; and

(v) if a majority of a Fund’s outstanding voting securities do not approve such Fund’s New Advisory Agreements and, with respect to VTA, the VTA Subadvisory Agreement, the interim adviser will be paid, out of the escrow account, the lesser of (a) any costs incurred in performing the Interim Advisory Agreement (plus interest earned on that amount while in escrow), or (b) the total amount in the escrow account (plus interest earned).

The Board has not yet approved Interim Advisory Agreements for the Funds and there can be no guarantee it would do so. In the event that the New Advisory Agreements and, with respect to VTA, the VTA Subadvisory Agreement, are not

approved, the Board will take such action as it believes to be in the best interest of the respective Fund and its Shareholders.

link1 "PROPOSAL 1(a): APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND PROPOSAL 1(b): APPROVAL OF MASTER SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT" PROPOSAL 1(a): APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND PROPOSAL 1(b): APPROVAL OF MASTER SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT

In this Proposal 1, each Fund’s Board of Trustees and management are recommending Shareholders approve a new investment advisory arrangement between each Fund and Invesco, which arrangement includes (a) a new investment advisory agreement with Invesco, which agreement allows Invesco to enter into subadvisory agreements and delegate any and all of its rights, duties or obligations to one or more wholly owned affiliates of Invesco Ltd. as subadvisers (“Invesco Sub-Advisers”), listed in Annex C, and (b) a master subadvisory agreement (the “Master Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between Invesco and the Invesco Sub-Advisers. The new investment advisory agreement and the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement are referred to herein collectively as the “New Advisory Agreements.” A majority of the Trustees of each Fund who are not parties to the New Advisory Agreements or interested persons of any such party (the “Independent Trustees”) have approved the forms of the New Advisory Agreements between each Fund and Invesco and have approved submitting such New Advisory Agreements to Shareholders for approval. To become effective, the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (within the meaning of the 1940 Act) of each Fund must approve Proposal 1(a) and Proposal 1(b).

The remainder of this section includes more detail on the current investment advisory agreements, the New Advisory Agreements, additional information on Board considerations specific to the New Advisory Agreements, and concludes with the Board’s recommendation.

Current Investment Advisory Agreements

The Adviser serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to the current investment advisory agreements. The date of current investment advisory agreement and the date of the most recent shareholder approval of each current investment advisory agreement are listed below. The date on which the Board most recently approved the continuation of each current investment advisory agreement was May 20, 2009.

Terms of the Current Investment Advisory Agreements

Duties of Adviser. Under the current advisory agreements, the Adviser manages the investment and reinvestment of assets for each Fund in accordance with such Fund’s investment objectives, policies and investment restrictions, subject to the review and supervision of the Board.

XBRL Pagebreak Begin

12

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

Non-Exclusive Agreement. Under the current investment advisory agreements, the Adviser to each Fund is free to render similar services to other entities so long as its services under the current investment advisory agreements are not impaired as a result.

Fees. The Adviser for each Fund is paid fees for each Fund as described below.

The 17 Funds included in this proxy statement break down into 2 categories:

(1) Funds which do not use leverage or use leverage via borrowing and the Adviser is only paid on the “net assets” of such Fund — this category includes VBF and Senior Loan Fund; and

(2) Funds that use leverage and the Adviser is paid on the “managed assets” of such Fund — this category includes the remaining 15 Funds listed below. While over time the language used to describe managed assets has varied somewhat among the 15 Funds, the calculations of managed assets have been consistent across all 15 Funds, and going forward the New Advisory Agreements seek to clarify and standardize the language across all of these 15 Funds. Managed assets are the total asset value of the Fund minus the sum of accrued liabilities other than the aggregate liquidation preference of any preferred shares and/or the aggregate amount of any borrowings for investment purposes. This means that when preferred shares are utilized, the liquidation preference of the preferred shares is included in a Fund’s total assets; when tender option bonds are utilized, the cash that a Fund received from the special purpose trust’s sale of the short-term floating rate interest to a third party is included in a Fund’s total assets; and when any other form of borrowing is utilized, the proceeds from the borrowing are included in a Fund’s total assets. The amount of the actual advisory fee paid is not expected to vary as a result of the type of leverage utilized, rather it is expected to vary as a result of the total amount of leverage that a Fund uses. On certain Funds, the Adviser has agreed to and currently has in place an arrangement whereby its advisory fee is calculated based on managed assets as described above only up to a certain level of leverage as agreed upon between the Adviser and the Fund’s Board. On certain Funds, the Adviser has agreed to and currently has in place a waiver of a portion of the advisory fee rate described in the contract (the advisory fee rate below is the contractual rate before any such waiver). Consistent with Invesco’s contractual limitation on net operating expense ratios of the Funds as discussed herein, it is not expected that the Fund’s Board or Invesco would seek to change the waivers or arrangements previously imposed by the Board through at least June 30, 2012. In determining the obligation to waive advisory fees and/or reimburse expenses, the following is not taken into account: (i) interest, (ii) taxes, (iii) dividend expense on short sales, (iv) extraordinary or non-routine items and (v) expenses that a Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an offset arrangement.

Expenses. Under the current investment advisory agreements, each Fund will assume and pay the expenses for services rendered by the custodian for the safekeeping of such Fund’s assets. Each Fund also pays for the expenses of independent accountants, legal counsel, transfer and disbursing agents, listing on the New York Stock Exchange or other exchange, and other expenses.

Liability. Under the current investment advisory agreements, the Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or of law, or for any loss suffered by a Fund in connection with matters in which the current investment advisory agreement relates, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence of the Adviser or from reckless disregard of duties under the current investment advisory agreement.

Termination. The current investment advisory agreements terminate automatically in the event of assignment or at any time by a Fund or the Adviser upon sixty days’ written notice.

New Advisory Agreements

It is proposed that each Fund will enter into the New Advisory Agreements, to become effective upon the later of (i) the date Shareholders approve their Fund’s New Advisory Agreements or (ii) the consummation of the Transaction. Under Section 15(a) of the 1940 Act, the New Advisory Agreements require the approval of (i) the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, and (ii) the Shareholders of such Fund.

Based on the considerations described above in “Background and the Transaction” and those described below under “Board Considerations,” the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously approved the New Advisory Agreements for each Fund.

Except as described below, there are no material differences between the terms of the New Advisory Agreements and the terms of the current investment advisory agreements. The forms of the new investment advisory agreement and Master Sub-Advisory Agreement are attached hereto as Annex D and Annex E, respectively, and the description of the New Advisory Agreements is qualified in its entirety by the reference to Annex D and Annex E hereto. The New Advisory Agreements differ from the current investment advisory agreements as follows:

XBRL Pagebreak Begin

15

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

Delegation to subadvisers

Each new investment advisory agreement with Invesco provides that Invesco may delegate any and all of its rights, duties or obligations to one or more wholly owned affiliates of Invesco Ltd. as sub-advisers (“Invesco Sub-Advisers”), listed in Annex C, pursuant to a master sub-advisory agreement (the “Master Sub-Advisory Agreement”). A form of the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement is attached hereto as Annex E.

The Invesco Sub-Advisers, which have offices and personnel that are located in financial centers around the world, have been formed in part for the purpose of researching and compiling information and making recommendations (i) on the markets and economies of various countries and securities of companies located in such countries and/or (ii) on various types of investments and investment techniques, and providing investment advisory services.

The Master Sub-Advisory Agreement will benefit the Funds and their Shareholders by permitting Invesco to utilize the additional resources and talent of the Invesco Sub-Advisers in managing the Funds. The Master Sub-Advisory Agreement will allow Invesco and the Funds to receive investment advice and research services from the Invesco Sub-Advisers and would also permit Invesco to grant one or more of the Invesco Sub-Advisers investment management authority for all or a portion of a particular Fund’s assets if Invesco believes doing so would benefit the Fund and its shareholders. The subadvisory fees payable under the Master Sub-Advisory Agreements will have no direct effect on the Funds or their Shareholders, as they are paid by Invesco to the Invesco Sub-Advisers.

The Master Sub-Advisory Agreement will provide Invesco with increased flexibility in assigning portfolio managers to the Funds and will give the Funds access to portfolio managers and investment personnel located in other offices, including those outside the United States, who may have more specialized expertise on local companies, markets and economies or on various types of investments and investment techniques. Additionally, the Funds and their Shareholders may benefit from giving the Invesco Sub-Advisers the ability to execute portfolio transactions for the Funds from offices located outside the United States. This ability should enable the Funds to participate more fully in trading sessions of foreign exchanges and to react more quickly to changing market conditions around the world.

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

Terms of the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement

Duties of the Invesco Sub-Advisers. The Master Sub-Advisory Agreement provides that Invesco may, in its discretion, appoint one or more of the Invesco Sub-Advisers to provide: (i) investment advice to one or more of the Funds for all or a portion of its investments; (ii) placement orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities or other investments for one or more of the Funds; or (iii) discretionary investment management of all or a portion of the investments of one or more of the Funds.

Compensation. The Master Sub-Advisory Agreement for each Fund provides that, to the extent an Invesco Sub-Adviser manages a portion of a Fund’s investments, the fee that Invesco will pay such Invesco Sub-Adviser, computed daily and paid monthly, will equal (i) 40% of the monthly compensation that Invesco receives from the applicable Fund pursuant to its advisory agreement with such Fund, multiplied by (ii) a fraction equal to the net assets of such Fund as to which the Invesco Sub-Adviser shall have provided discretionary investment management services for that month divided by the net assets of such Fund for that month, in each case reduced to reflect contractual or voluntary fee waivers or expense limitations by Invesco, if any. The Master Sub-Advisory Agreement further provides that an Invesco Sub-Adviser will only be compensated for providing discretionary investment management services and not for merely providing investment advice or trading services.

Liability. The Master Sub-Advisory Agreement for each Fund provides that the Invesco Sub-Advisers will not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by a Fund in connection with the performance of the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of an Invesco Sub-Adviser in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard of its duties and obligations thereunder.

Term and Termination. Assuming approval by each Fund’s shareholders, the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement for each Fund shall continue for an initial term of two years from the effective date of the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement, and shall continue thereafter if approved annually (i) by the Board or the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund and (ii) by a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of any party to the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Master Sub-Advisory Agreement may be terminated with respect to an Invesco Sub-Adviser by the Board, a majority of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund, or any party on sixty days’ written notice. Should the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement be terminated for an Invesco Sub-Adviser, Invesco will assume the duties and responsibilities of the Invesco Sub-Adviser unless and until Invesco appoints another Invesco Sub-Adviser to perform such duties and responsibilities. In addition, the Master Sub-Advisory Agreement will terminate automatically if assigned, as defined in the 1940 Act.

Securities Lending

The New Advisory Agreements stipulate that Invesco will provide certain services to the Funds in connection with any securities lending practices such Funds may adopt. The Funds do not currently have any intention to engage in securities lending.

Term

The New Advisory Agreements will terminate two years after their initial approval and will be subject to Board approval every year thereafter.

Board Considerations

In connection with the Board’s consideration of the New Advisory Agreements, the Trustees considered the factors discussed above in “Background and the Transaction” as well as the following:

Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services to be Provided. The Board considered the roles and responsibilities of the investment adviser (and its affiliates) as a whole and those specific to portfolio management, support and trading functions anticipated to be servicing each Fund. The Board noted that the current portfolio management team for each Fund, except VBF and VLT, is expected to remain the same under each New Advisory Agreements. The Trustees discussed with Invesco the resources available in managing each Fund. The Trustees also discussed certain other services that are to be provided by Invesco or its affiliates to the Funds including subadvisory services, certain global performance measurement and risk analysis, compliance, accounting, and administrative services. The Board has determined that the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by Invesco (and its affiliates) support its decision to approve the New Advisory Agreements.

Projected Fees and Expenses of the Fund. The Board considered that the investment advisory fee rate for each Fund would remain the same under the New Advisory Agreements as they are under the current investment advisory agreements. The Board had previously determined that such fees were acceptable under the current investment advisory agreement. The Board has determined that the projected fees and expenses of the Funds support its decision to approve the New Advisory Agreements.

Investment Adviser’s Expenses in Providing the Service and Profitability. At least annually, the Trustees expect to review Invesco’s expenses in providing services to the Funds and other funds advised by Invesco and the profitability of Invesco. In connection with the Funds, the Trustees discussed with Invesco its projected revenues and expenses, including among other things, revenues for advisory services, portfolio management-related expenses, and other costs. The Board has determined that the analysis of Invesco’s projected expenses and profitability support its decision to approve the New Advisory Agreements.

Economies of Scale. The Board noted that economies of scale were already reflected in the advisory fees. In future determinations of whether to approve the continuation of

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

18

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

advisory agreements, the Board will consider whether economies of scale exist and should to be passed along to Shareholders.

Other Benefits of the Relationship. The Board considered other benefits to Invesco and its affiliates derived from its relationship with the Funds and other funds advised by Invesco. These benefits include, among other things, fees for administrative services (which is reimbursement of Invesco’s cost or such reasonable compensation as may be approved by the Board), transfer agency services provided to the Senior Loan Fund and other funds in the fund family, in certain cases research to be received by Invesco or its affiliates generated from commission dollars spent on funds’ portfolio trading, and in certain cases distribution or service related fees related to sales of the Senior Loan Fund and other funds in the fund family. The Board of Trustees reviewed with Invesco each of these arrangements and the reasonableness of its costs relative to the services performed. The Board has determined that the other benefits received by Invesco or its affiliates support its decision to approve the New Advisory Agreements.

The Board of each Fund unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” approval of a new investment advisory agreement with Invesco Advisers, Inc. and “FOR” approval of a new master subadvisory agreement between Invesco Advisers, Inc. and its affiliates.

link1 "PROPOSAL 2: APPROVAL OF VTA INVESTMENT SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT" PROPOSAL 2: APPROVAL OF VTA INVESTMENT SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT

In this proposal 2, VTA’s Board of Trustees and management are recommending that VTA Shareholders approve a new investment subadvisory agreement between Invesco and Avenue Europe (“New VTA Subadvisory Agreement”).

A majority of the Independent Trustees have approved the form of the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement and have approved submitting such New VTA Subadvisory Agreement to VTA Shareholders for approval. To become effective, the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (within the meaning of the 1940 Act) of VTA must approve the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement.

The remainder of this section includes more detail on the current VTA investment subadvisory agreement, the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement, additional information on Board considerations specific to the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement, and concludes with the Board’s recommendation.

Current VTA Investment Subadvisory Agreement

Avenue Europe serves as investment subadviser for VTA pursuant to the current VTA subadvisory agreement. The current VTA subadvisory agreement dated June 26, 2007 was last approved by VTA Shareholders on June 26, 2007 and was last approved for continuation by the Board on May 20, 2009. Under the VTA subadvisory agreement, the Adviser pays the Subadviser a fee equal to 40% of the compensation received by the

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

19

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

Adviser from VTA, less $200,000 per annum. The aggregate amount of fees paid by the Adviser to the Subadviser during the most recently completed fiscal year is $5,490,595.

Terms of the Current Investment Subadvisory Agreement

Duties of the Subadviser. Under the current VTA investment subadvisory agreement, the Subadviser manages the investment and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of VTA, subject to the control and direction of the Adviser.

Compensation. Under the current VTA investment subadvisory agreement, the Adviser pays the Subadviser a fee equal to 40% of the compensation received by the Adviser from VTA, less $200,000 per annum.

Non-Exclusive Agreement. Under the current VTA investment subadvisory agreement, the Subadviser is free to render similar services to other entities and to engage in other activities.

Liability and Indemnification. Under the current VTA investment subadvisory agreement, the Subadviser shall not be liable for any act or omission in connection with rendering services under such agreement, except for a loss caused by willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the obligations or duties under the agreement. The Subadviser will indemnify the Adviser, VTA, their affiliates, directors and officers against all loss caused by the Subadviser’s disabling conduct or any untrue statement of a material fact contained in VTA’s registration statement, proxy materials, reports, advertisements, sales literature or materials pertaining to VTA known by the Subadviser.

Termination and Amendment. The current VTA investment subadvisory agreement terminates automatically in the event of assignment or by the Board of Trustees, by the Adviser, or by a vote of the majority of the outstanding securities of the Fund upon 60 days’ prior written notice to the Subadviser, or by the Subadviser upon 60 days’ prior written notice to the Adviser.

New VTA Subadvisory Agreement

It is proposed that the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement between Invesco and Avenue Europe become effective upon the later of (i) the date VTA Shareholders approve the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement, (ii) the date Invesco becomes the investment adviser to VTA, or (iii) the consummation of the Transaction.

Based on the considerations described above in “Background and the Transaction” and those described below under “Board Considerations,” the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously approved the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement.

The terms of the current VTA investment subadvisory agreement and the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement are similar, except that: (1) Invesco replaces the Adviser as VTA’s investment adviser and, therefore, the party with whom the Subadviser has a

contractual relationship, and (2) the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement will terminate two years after its initial approval and will be subject to Board approval every year thereafter. A form of the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement is attached hereto as Annex F.

Board Considerations

In connection with the Board’s consideration of the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement, the Trustees considered the factors discussed above in “Background and the Transaction” as well as the following:

Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services Provided. The Board considered the roles and responsibilities of each of the adviser and the investment subadviser, including those specific to portfolio management, support and trading functions servicing the Fund. The Board noted the current portfolio management team for VTA is expected to remain the same under the New Advisory Agreements and the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement. The Trustees discussed with management the resources available and used in managing the Fund. The Board has determined that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the investment subadviser support its decision to approve the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund. The Board considered that the subadvisory fees for the Fund would remain the same as they are under the current VTA investment subadvisory agreement. The Board had previously determined that the projected fees and expenses of the Fund support its decision to approve the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement.

Expenses in Providing the Service and Profitability. At least annually, the Trustees expect to review the expenses of providing services to the Fund and other funds advised by the investment subadviser and the profitability of the investment subadviser. The Trustees discussed the investment subadviser’s revenues and expenses, including among other things, revenues for advisory services, portfolio management-related expenses, revenue sharing arrangement costs and allocated expenses. The Board has determined that the analysis of expenses and profitability support its decision to approve the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement.

Economies of Scale. The Board noted that economies of scale were already reflected in the investment subadvisory fees. In future determinations of whether to approve the continuation of the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement, the Board will consider whether economies of scale exist and should be passed along the VTA Shareholders.

The Board of VTA unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the New VTA Subadvisory Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Advisor is registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), as an investment advisor and engages in the business of acting as an investment advisor;

WHEREAS, the Trust and the Advisor desire to enter into an agreement to provide for investment advisory services to the Trust upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. Advisory Services.

XBRL Pagebreak Begin

D-1

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

(c) determine which issuers and securities shall be represented in the Trust’s investment portfolios and regularly report thereon to the Board of Trustees;

(d) formulate and implement continuing programs for the purchases and sales of the securities of such issuers and regularly report thereon to the Board of Trustees; and

(e) take, on behalf of the Trust, all actions which appear to the Trust necessary to carry into effect such purchase and sale programs and supervisory functions as aforesaid, including but not limited to the placing of orders for the purchase and sale of securities for the Trust.

1. Securities Lending Duties and Fees. The Advisor agrees to provide the following services in connection with the securities lending activities of the Trust: (a) oversee participation in the securities lending program to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory and investment guidelines; (b) assist the securities lending agent or principal (the “Agent”) in determining which specific securities are available for loan; (c) monitor the Agent to ensure that securities loans are effected in accordance with the Advisor’s instructions and with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees; (d) prepare appropriate periodic reports for, and seek appropriate approvals from, the Board of Trustees with respect to securities lending activities; (e) respond to Agent inquiries; and (f) perform such other duties as necessary.

As compensation for such services provided by the Advisor in connection with securities lending activities, the Trust shall pay the Advisor a fee equal to 25% of the net monthly interest or fee income retained or paid to the Trust from such activities.

1. Delegation of Responsibilities. The Advisor is authorized to delegate any or all of its rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement to one or more sub-advisors, and may enter into agreements with sub-advisors, and may replace any such sub-advisors from time to time in its discretion, in accordance with the 1940 Act, the Advisers Act, and rules and regulations thereunder, as such statutes, rules and regulations are amended from time to time or are interpreted from time to time by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and if applicable, exemptive orders or similar relief granted by the SEC and upon receipt of approval of such sub-advisors by the Board of Trustees and by shareholders (unless any such approval is not required by such statutes, rules, regulations, interpretations, orders or similar relief).

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

1. Control by Board of Trustees. Any investment program undertaken by the Advisor pursuant to this Agreement, as well as any other activities undertaken by the Advisor on behalf of the Funds, shall at all times be subject to any directives of the Board of Trustees.

(a) all applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act and any rules and regulations adopted thereunder;

(b) the provisions of the registration statement of the Trust, as the same may be amended from time to time under the Securities Act of 1933 and the 1940 Act;

1. Broker-Dealer Relationships. The Advisor is responsible for decisions to buy and sell securities for the Trust, broker-dealer selection, and negotiation of brokerage commission rates.

(a) The Advisor’s primary consideration in effecting a security transaction will be to obtain the best execution.

(b) In selecting a broker-dealer to execute each particular transaction, the Advisor will take the following into consideration: the best net price available; the reliability, integrity and financial condition of the broker-dealer; the size of and the difficulty in executing the order; and the value of the expected contribution of the broker-dealer to the investment performance of the Trust on a continuing basis. Accordingly, the price to the Trust in any transaction may be less favorable than that available from another broker-dealer if the difference is reasonably justified by other aspects of the fund execution services offered.

(c) Subject to such policies as the Board of Trustees may from time to time determine, the Advisor shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of its having caused the Trust to pay a broker or dealer that provides brokerage and research services to the Advisor an amount of commission for effecting a fund investment transaction in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Advisor determines in good faith that such amount of commission

XBRL Paragraph Pagebreak XBRL Pagebreak Begin

BEGIN PAGE WIDTH XBRL Pagebreak End

was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the Advisor’s overall responsibilities with respect to the Trust, and to other clients of the Advisor as to which the Advisor exercises investment discretion. The Advisor is further authorized to allocate the orders placed by it on behalf of the Trust to such brokers and dealers who also provide research or statistical material, or other services to the Trust, to the Advisor, or to any sub-advisor. Such allocation shall be in such amounts and proportions as the Advisor shall determine and the Advisor will report on said allocations regularly to the Board of Trustees indicating the brokers to whom such allocations have been made and the basis therefor.

(d) With respect to the Trust, to the extent the Advisor does not delegate trading responsibility to one or more sub-advisors, in making decisions regarding broker-dealer relationships, the Advisor may take into consideration the recommendations of any sub-advisor appointed to provide investment research or advisory services in connection with the Trust, and may take into consideration any research services provided to such sub-advisor by broker-dealers.

(e) Subject to the other provisions of this Section 8, the 1940 Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and rules and regulations thereunder, as such statutes, rules and regulations are amended from time to time or are interpreted from time to time by the staff of the SEC, any exemptive orders issued by the SEC, and any other applicable provisions of law, the Advisor may select brokers or dealers with which it or the Trust are affiliated.

1. Compensation. The compensation that the Trust shall pay the Advisor is set forth in Appendix A attached hereto.

2. Expenses of the Trust. All of the ordinary business expenses incurred in the operations of the Trust and the offering of its shares shall be borne by the Trust unless specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement. These expenses borne by the Trust include but are not limited to brokerage commissions, taxes, legal, accounting, auditing, or governmental fees, the cost of preparing share certificates, custodian, transfer and shareholder service agent costs, expenses of issue, sale, redemption and repurchase of shares, expenses of registering and qualifying shares for sale, expenses relating to trustees and shareholder meetings, the cost of preparing and distributing reports and notices to shareholders, the fees and other expenses incurred by the Trust in connection with membership in investment company organizations and the cost of printing copies of prospectuses and statements of additional information distributed to the Trust’s shareholders.

The Trust recognizes that in some cases this procedure may adversely affect the size of the positions obtainable and the prices realized for the Trust.

1. Non-Exclusivity. The Trust understands that the persons employed by the Advisor to assist in the performance of the Advisor’s duties under this Agreement will not devote their full time to such service and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or restrict the right of the Advisor or any affiliate of the Advisor to engage in and devote time and attention to other businesses or to render services of whatever kind or nature.

If so approved, this Agreement shall thereafter continue in force and effect until two years after the date indicated above, and may be continued from year to year thereafter, provided that the continuation of the Agreement is specifically approved at least annually:

3. Liability of Shareholders. Notice is hereby given that, as provided by applicable law, the obligations of or arising out of this Agreement are not binding upon any of the shareholders of the Trust individually but are binding only upon the assets and property of the Trust and that the shareholders shall be entitled, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to the same limitation on personal liability as shareholders of private corporations for profit.

4. Notices. Any notices under this Agreement shall be in writing, addressed and delivered, telecopied or mailed postage paid, to the other party entitled to receipt thereof at such address as such party may designate for the receipt of such notice.

In addition, where the effect of a requirement of the 1940 Act or the Advisers Act reflected in any provision of the Agreement is revised by rule, regulation or order of the SEC, such provision shall be deemed to incorporate the effect of such rule, regulation or order.

(e) Each Sub-Adviser represents and warrants that it has adopted a code of ethics meeting the requirements of Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act and the requirements of Rule 204A-1 under the Advisers Act and has provided the Adviser and the Board a copy of such code of ethics, together with evidence of its adoption, and will promptly provide copies of any changes thereto, together with evidence of their adoption.

E-5

END PAGE WIDTH PAGEBREAK

fee, computed daily and paid monthly, equal to (i) 40% of the monthly compensation that the Adviser receives from the Trust pursuant to its advisory agreement with the Trust, multiplied by (ii) the fraction equal to the net assets of the Trust as to which the Sub-Adviser shall have provided discretionary investment management services pursuant to paragraph 2(c) above for that month divided by the net assets of the Trust for that month. This fee shall be payable on or before the last business day of the next succeeding calendar month. This fee shall be reduced to reflect contractual or voluntary fee waivers or expense limitations by the Adviser, if any, in effect from time to time as set forth in paragraph 9 below. In no event shall the aggregate monthly fees paid to the Sub-Advisers under this Contract exceed 40% of the monthly compensation that the Adviser receives from the Trust pursuant to its advisory agreement with the Trust, as reduced to reflect contractual or voluntary fee waivers or expense limitations by the Adviser, if any.

(b) If this Contract becomes effective or terminates before the end of any month, the fees for the period from the effective date to the end of the month or from the beginning of such month to the date of termination, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the full month in which such effectiveness or termination occurs.

(c) If a Sub-Adviser provides the services under paragraph 2(c) above to the Trust for a period that is less than a full month, the fees for such period shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the applicable full month.

1. Fee Waivers and Expense Limitations. If, for any fiscal year of the Trust, the amount of the advisory fee which such Trust would otherwise be obligated to pay to the Adviser is reduced because of contractual or voluntary fee waivers or expense limitations by the Adviser, the fee payable to each Sub-Adviser pursuant to paragraph 8 above shall be reduced proportionately; and to the extent that the Adviser reimburses the Trust as a result of such expense limitations, such Sub-Adviser shall reimburse the Adviser that proportion of such reimbursement payments which the fee payable to each Sub-Adviser pursuant to paragraph 8 above bears to the advisory fee under this Contract.

2. Limitation of Liability of Sub-Adviser and Indemnification. No Sub-Adviser shall be liable for any costs or liabilities arising from any error of judgment or mistake of law or any loss suffered by the Trust in connection with the matters to which this Contract relates except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of such Sub-Adviser in the performance by such Sub-Adviser of its duties or from reckless disregard by such Sub-Adviser of its obligations and duties under this Contract. Any person, even though also an officer, partner, employee, or agent of a Sub-Adviser, who may be or become a Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust, shall be deemed, when rendering services to the Trust or acting with respect to any business of the Trust, to be

In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or duties (“disabling conduct”) hereunder, on the part of the Sub-Adviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the Sub-Adviser), the Sub-Adviser shall not be subject to liability to the Adviser, its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons or shareholders or to the Fund or to any shareholder of the Fund for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering services hereunder, including without limitation, any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates. Except for such disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the Sub-Adviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the Sub-Adviser) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation (including reasonable legal and other expenses) arising from the Sub-Adviser’s providing services under this Agreement or the sale of securities of the Fund.

b. The Sub-Adviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Fund, the Adviser and their affiliates and each of their officers, directors, trustees, agents, employees and each person who controls the Fund or the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the

“1933 Act”) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation (including reasonable legal and other expenses), to which the Fund, the Adviser or their affiliates or such officers, directors, trustees, agents, employees or controlling persons may become subject under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or otherwise, which are caused by the Sub-Adviser’s disabling conduct or any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, proxy materials, reports, advertisements, sales literature or other materials pertaining to the Fund or the omission to state therein a material fact known to the Sub-Adviser which was required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. In no case is the Sub-Adviser’s indemnity in favor of any person deemed to protect such other persons against any liability to which such person would otherwise be subject by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his, her or its duties or by reason of his, her or its reckless disregard of obligations or duties under this Agreement.

c. The Sub-Adviser shall not be liable to the Adviser, its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons or shareholders or to the Fund or its shareholders for (i) any acts of the Adviser or any other sub-adviser to the Fund with respect to the portion of the assets of the Fund not managed by the Sub-Adviser; and (ii) acts of the Sub-Adviser which result from or are based upon acts of the Adviser, including, but not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate and current information with respect to any records maintained by the Adviser or any other sub-adviser to the Fund, which records are not also maintained by the Sub-Adviser.

The Adviser shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation (including reasonable legal and other expenses) arising from the conduct of the Adviser, the Fund and any other sub-adviser with respect to the portion of the Fund’s assets not allocated to the Sub-Adviser.

1. Limitation of Fund’s Liability . The Sub-Adviser acknowledges that it has received notice of and accepts the limitations upon the Fund’s liability set forth in the Fund’s Charter Documents. The Sub-Adviser agrees that any of the Fund’s obligations shall be limited to the assets of the Fund and that the Sub-Adviser shall not seek satisfaction of any such obligation from the shareholders of the Fund nor from any Fund officer, employee or agent of the Fund (other than the Adviser).

SCHEDULE A

For the services provided by the Sub-Adviser to the Van Kampen Dynamic Credit Opportunities Fund, pursuant to the attached Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Adviser will pay the Sub-Adviser a fee equal to (i) 40% of the compensation received from the Fund by the Adviser, less (ii) $200,000 per annum. The $200,000, which represents costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Adviser related to the Fund, including, among other things, preparation and provision of informational pieces (including webcasts and public conference calls), preparation of shareholder reports, and communications with research analysts, will be prorated and paid monthly. For purposes of the first sentence, the compensation paid by the Fund to the Adviser is currently equal to 1.25% of the average daily managed assets of the Fund. Managed assets shall mean the average daily gross asset value of the Fund minus the sum of accrued liabilities other than any proceeds from the issuance of preferred shares and/or the aggregate amount of any borrowings for investment purposes.

APPENDIX A

Avenue-Credit Thresholds (excerpt from Avenue Trade Allocation Policy)

The European Strategies

The Firm’s European Strategies are similar in that they both involve obligations of European issuers.

The European Alternatives Strategy, however, will generally only invest in obligations which, at the time of investment, have total yields in excess of the following bench marks ( the “Avenue-Credit Thresholds”) 1 :

• for floating rate investments, LIBOR plus [ ] basis points, EUROLIBOR plus [ ] basis points, and Sterling LIBOR plus [ ] basis points, as applicable; and

• for fixed rate investments, current US Treasury plus [ ] basis points, Bundes Obligationen (“OBL”) plus [ ] basis points, Bundes Republic Deutschland (“DBR”) plus [ ] basis points, Bundes Schatzanweisungen (“BKO”) plus [ ] basis points and UK Gilt rates plus [ ] basis points, as applicable, depending upon the currency and term of the investment.

The European Alternatives Strategy will be able to sell short (including entering into a credit default swap) investments below the Avenue-Credit Thresholds for hedging and other purposes. In addition for purposes of covering or closing a short position the European Alternatives Strategy will be able to borrow or buy investments below the Avenue-Credit Thresholds.

The European Investment Company Strategy will only invest in obligations (including short selling) which, at the time of investment, expect to have total yields at the time of investment that are less than the Avenue-Credit Thresholds. All allocations shall be made accordingly.

The Avenue-Credit Thresholds may change over time as market conditions change. A committee will meet from time to time (when market conditions have changed) to review the market conditions and to determine whether the allocation policy, including the credit spread portion of the Avenue-Credit Thresholds, should be changed. The Committee will not make changes to the Avenue-Credit Thresholds with particular investments in mind. Rather, the Avenue-Credit Thresholds must be determined before allocations are being considered for a particular investment. The Committee shall consist of Rich Furst, Sonia Gardner and Marc Lasry. A change to the Avenue-Credit Thresholds shall require majority approval of the members.
