This Memorandum of Agreement is entered into as of the date indicated
on Exhibit "A" between AIM Floating Rate Fund, AIM Growth Series, AIM Investment
Funds and AIM Series Trust (each a "Company" and collectively, the "Companies"),
on behalf of the portfolios listed on Exhibit "A" to this Memorandum of
Agreement (the "Funds"), and A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM").
For and in consideration of the mutual terms and agreements set forth
herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged, the Companies and AIM agree as follows:
1. Each Company, for itself and its Funds, and AIM agree that
until the expiration date, if any, of the commitment set forth

amended from time to time, AIM will not charge any
administrative fee under each Fund's advisory agreement in
connection with securities lending activities.

to a Company's detriment prior to requesting and receiving the
approval of the Fund's Board to remove or amend such fee
waiver as described on the attached Exhibit "A". AIM will not
have any right to reimbursement of any amount so waived.
Unless a Company, by vote of its Board of Trustees, or AIM terminates
the fee waiver, or a Company and AIM are unable to reach an agreement on the
amount of the fee waiver to which the Company and AIM desire to be bound, the
fee waiver will continue indefinitely with respect to such Company. Exhibit "A"
will be amended to reflect the new date through which a Company and AIM agree to
be bound.
Nothing in this Memorandum of Agreement is intended to affect any other
memorandum of agreement executed by any Company or AIM with respect to any other
fee waivers, expense reimbursements and/or expense limitations
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Company, on behalf of itself and its Funds
listed in Exhibit "A" to this Memorandum of Agreement, and AIM have entered into
