INVESCO HIGH INCOME TRUST II—Common Shares – Cusip: 46131F101

DISTRIBUTION NOTICE

Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year will report distributions for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Trust’s annual report to shareholders will include information regarding the tax character of Trust distributions for the fiscal year. This Notice is sent to comply with certain U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission requirements.

On August 1, 2018, Invesco Advisers, Inc. (Invesco) announced that the Board of Trustees of the Trust approved a managed distribution plan (the “Plan”) for the Trust, whereby the Trust will pay common shareholders a stable monthly distribution. Under the Plan, the Trust increased its dividend to a stated fixed monthly amount based on a distribution rate of 8.5% of market price per share as of August 1, 2018, which is the date the Plan became effective. The Trust’s distributions may include net investment income, long-term capital gains, short-term capital gains and/or return of capital. In order to make multiple long-term capital gains distributions over the course of the year, the Trust will rely on an exemptive order granted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The following table sets forth the estimated amounts of the current distribution and the cumulative distributions paid this fiscal year to date from the sources indicated. You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Plan. All amounts are expressed per common share. The Trust estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution is estimated to be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Trust is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Trust’s investment performance and should not be confused with “yield” or “income.” The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this 19(a) Notice are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend on the Trust’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Trust will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

The final determination of the source and tax characteristics of all distributions in 2018 will be made after the end of the year.

The monthly distributions are based on estimates and terms of the Trust’s Plan. Monthly distribution amounts may vary from these estimates based on a multitude of factors.

The Trust’s NAV is calculated as the total market value of all the securities and other assets held by the Trust minus the total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares outstanding. NAV performance may be indicative of the Trust’s investment performance. The value of a shareholder’s investment in the Trust is determined by the Trust’s market price, which is based on the supply and demand for the Trust’s shares in the open market.

INVESCO HIGH INCOME TRUST II - Common Shares – Cusip: 46131F101

DISTRIBUTION NOTICE

Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year will report distributions for US federal income tax purposes. The Trust’s annual report to shareholders will include information regarding the tax character of Trust distributions for the fiscal year. This Notice is sent to comply with certain US Securities and Exchange Commission requirements.

On August 1, 2018, Invesco Advisers, Inc. (Invesco) announced that the Board of Trustees of the Trust approved a managed distribution plan (the “Plan”) for the Trust, whereby the Trust will pay common shareholders a stable monthly distribution. Under the Plan, the Trust increased its dividend to a stated fixed monthly amount based on a distribution rate of 8.5% of market price per share as of August 1, 2018, which is the date the Plan became effective. The Trust’s distributions may include net investment income, long-term capital gains, short-term capital gains and/or return of capital. In order to make multiple long-term capital gains distributions over the course of the year, the Trust will rely on an exemptive order granted by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The following table sets forth the estimated amounts of the current distribution and the cumulative distributions paid this fiscal year to date from the sources indicated. You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Plan. All amounts are expressed per common share. The Trust estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution is estimated to be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Trust is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Trust’s investment performance and should not be confused with “yield” or “income.” The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this 19(a) Notice are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend on the Trust’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Trust will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.
