      An enhanced index strategy, or in this case, an enhanced sector strategy,
      refers to a unit investment trust strategy, sponsored by Invesco Capital
      Markets, Inc., that seeks to outperform an index by investing in an
      objectively selected subset of stocks from the same index.

                                                                                  6
• The Portfolio’s performance might not
  sufficiently correspond to published
  hypothetical         performance          of      the
  Portfolio’s investment strategy. This can
  happen for reasons such as an inability to exactly
  replicate the weightings of stocks in the strategy
  or be fully invested, timing of the Portfolio offering
  or timing of your investment, and Portfolio
  expenses. The hypothetical performance
  presented is not the past performance of the
  Portfolio.
• The Portfolio invests in stocks of smaller
  capitalization companies. These stocks are
  often more volatile and have lower trading
  volumes than stocks of larger companies.
  Smaller capitalization companies may have
  limited products or financial resources,
  management inexperience and less publicly
  available information.
• The Portfolio is concentrated in
  securities issued by companies in the
  technology industry. As further discussed in
  “Risk Factors – Industry Risks,” the technology
  industry faces risks related to rapidly changing
  technology, rapid product obsolescence, cyclical
  market patterns, evolving industry standards and
  frequent new product introductions. Negative
  developments in this industry will affect the value
  of your investment more than would be the case
  in a more diversified investment.
• We do not actively manage the Portfolio.
  Except in limited circumstances, the Portfolio will
  hold, and may continue to buy, shares of the same
  securities even if their market value declines.
