Special Meeting of Shareholders – Email Templates
Subject: ACTION REQUIRED: Your investment in Invesco QQQ TrustSM, Series 1.
Dear First Last Name:
On behalf of Invesco QQQ TrustSM, Series 1, we’ve been trying to reach you regarding the Special Meeting of Shareholders. According to our most recent records, we have not received your vote, and with the meeting just days away, we strongly urge you to act now.
The fund believes that if the modernization proposal is approved by shareholders, the fund will save $70,000,000 in expenses annually. If your fund reduces expenses, those savings are available towards the Funds’ total return to shareholders.
Invesco, the Sponsor of the Trust, believes that the Proposals are in the best interests of the Trust and its shareholders and therefore recommends that you approve each Proposal. Detailed information on the meeting and the proposals can be found by visiting Invesco QQQ TrustSM, Series 1, SEC Filings.

Response to DNC Invesco Phone Center
Script
For the Invesco Rep who receives a DNC call for the QQQ Proxy effort.
Purpose:
| ● | We can DNC easily but it would be great to try and convert the shareholder to a vote, so they stop receiving emails and mailings too. |
Anyone who calls in to DNC, you can transfer them to the Sodali call center at the number below:
1-888-243-4740
If a shareholder declines being transferred to Sodali
Options to get them to vote:
If shareholder requests Do Not Call (DNC)
| ● | Thank you so much for reaching out. We can DNC your account(s) from being called immediately. The DNC process may take 24 hours to update but after that time, calls will cease. |
Rebuttal to stop calls AND mailings
| ● | If you vote your shares today ALL phone calls and reminder mailings will stop. Unfortunately, we do not have access to suppress mailings or e-deliveries so those will continue. |
If you wish to vote your shares, we have a convenient way for you to vote via email with our solicitor, Sodali Fund Solutions.
| 1) | Email a picture of your proxy card to [email protected] |
| a. | Please sign and include your voting direction |
| 2) | Email [email protected] |
| a. | First and last name and zip code |
| b. | Voting direction for the proposals |
| 3) | You will receive a confirmation in 3-5 days stating you voted and how. |
Once your email vote is processed calls will stop within 24 hours or less; mailings and e-deliveries stop within a few days.
We appreciate your interest in QQQ and your patience while we work to achieve the vote on this great initiative.
