EXECUTION COPY

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the “Agreement”) is made as of the 30th day of July, 2017 by and between Integrity Managed Portfolios, a Massachusetts business trust (the “Predecessor Trust”), on behalf of the series set forth in Exhibit A (each, a “Predecessor Fund”), and Viking Mutual Funds, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Successor Trust”), on behalf of the series set forth in Exhibit A (each, a “Successor Fund” and together with the Predecessor Fund, each, a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”), and, for purposes of Section 8.1 of the Agreement only, Viking Fund Management, LLC (the “Adviser”).  Each Fund maintains its principal place of business in Minot, North Dakota.

This Agreement is intended to be, and is adopted as, a plan of reorganization for the purpose of section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”).  Each reorganization will consist of (a) the assignment, conveyance, transfer and delivery of all of the assets of the Predecessor Fund to the corresponding Successor Fund as set forth in Exhibit A hereto in exchange solely for Class A voting shares of beneficial interest of the corresponding Successor Fund (“Successor Fund Shares”), as described herein, and the assumption by the corresponding Successor Fund of all of the liabilities of the Predecessor Fund, and (b) the subsequent pro rata distribution of the Successor Fund Shares to the shareholders of the Predecessor Fund in complete liquidation, dissolution and termination of the Predecessor Fund as provided herein, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement (each, a “Reorganization”).

WHEREAS, for convenience, the remainder of this Agreement refers only to a single Reorganization, one Predecessor Fund and one Successor Fund, but the terms and conditions hereof will apply separately to each Reorganization and the Predecessor Fund and the corresponding Successor Fund participating therein.  The consummation of any Reorganization will not be contingent on the consummation of any other Reorganization, and it is the intention of the parties hereto that each Reorganization described herein will be conducted separately and independently of the others;

WHEREAS, the Successor Fund has been organized in order to continue the business and operations of the Predecessor Fund;

WHEREAS, the Successor Fund currently has no assets and has carried on no business activities prior to the date first shown above and will have had no assets and will have carried on no business activities prior to the consummation of the transaction described herein except as necessary to facilitate the organization of the Successor Fund as a new series of the Successor Trust;

WHEREAS, each of the Board of Trustees of the Successor Fund and the Board of Trustees of the Predecessor Fund (each, a “Board” and together, the “Boards”), as applicable, has determined that the Reorganization is in the best interests of its respective Fund, and the Predecessor Fund’s Board has determined that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Predecessor Fund will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization.

In consideration of the premises and of the covenants and agreements set forth herein, the parties covenant and agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Transfer of Assets of the Predecessor Fund in Exchange for Shares of the Successor Fund and Assumption of Liabilities, if Any; DISSOLUTION, Liquidation AND TERMINATION of the Predecessor Fund

1.1 The Predecessor Fund agrees to assign, convey, transfer and deliver all of its property and assets as set forth in Section 1.2 to the Successor Fund, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, except as otherwise provided herein.  In exchange, the Successor Fund agrees to (a) assume all of the liabilities of the Predecessor Fund, as set forth in Section 1.3 and (b) issue and deliver to the Predecessor Fund, for distribution in accordance with Section 1.5 to the Predecessor Fund’s shareholders the number of full and fractional Successor Fund Shares equal in number and value, as of the Valuation Time, to the shares of the Predecessor Fund (“Predecessor Fund Shares”) outstanding immediately prior to the closing provided for in Section 2.1 (the “Closing”).

1.2 At the Closing, the Successor Fund shall acquire all of the assets of the Predecessor Fund, including without limitation, cash, cash equivalents, securities, commodities, interests in futures, dividends or interest receivables owned by the Predecessor Fund and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Predecessor Fund as of the Closing.  Other than as discussed herein and other than in the Predecessor Fund’s ordinary course of business of being an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), the Predecessor Fund has no plan or intent to sell or otherwise dispose of any of its assets.

1.3 At the Closing, the Successor Fund will assume all of the debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of, and all claims against, the Predecessor Fund of whatever kind or nature, whether absolute, accrued, contingent, known or unknown, or otherwise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, whether or not determinable as of the Closing and whether or not specifically referred to in this Agreement.

1.4 The net asset value per share of Class A shares of the Successor Fund issued in connection with the Reorganization shall be the net asset value per share of the Class A shares of the Predecessor Fund as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange on the Closing Date (the “Valuation Time”).  The net asset value of the Class A shares of the Predecessor Fund shall be determined in accordance with the Valuation Procedures of the Funds adopted by the Boards.

1.5 Immediately after the Closing, the Predecessor Fund will distribute pro rata in complete liquidation to its shareholders of record, determined as of the time of such distribution, the Successor Fund Shares received by the Predecessor Fund pursuant to Section 1.1 in exchange for the Predecessor Fund’s shares held by the shareholders of the Predecessor Fund.  Such distribution and liquidation will be accomplished by opening accounts on the books of the Successor Fund in the name of each shareholder of the Predecessor Fund and transferring to each account a number of the Successor Fund Shares received by the Predecessor Fund equal to the pro rata number of Successor Fund Shares due such shareholders.

1.6 All books and records of the Predecessor Fund, including all books and records required to be maintained under the Investment Company Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, shall be available to the Successor Fund from and after the Closing Date and shall be turned over to the Successor Fund on or prior to the date the Predecessor Fund is terminated pursuant to Section 1.7.

1.7 As soon as practicable following the Closing, the Predecessor Fund will have its affairs wound up and terminate its existence in accordance with the applicable provisions of the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

1.8 If and to the extent the Board of the Predecessor Fund deems it advisable for federal income tax purposes, prior to the Valuation Time, the Predecessor Fund shall make a distribution which, together with all previous such distributions, shall have the effect of distributing to the Predecessor Fund’s shareholders at least all of its investment company taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction), if any, plus the excess of its interest income excludible from gross income under section 103(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, if any, over its deductions disallowed under sections 265 and 171(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and its net capital gain (after reduction for any available capital loss carryover and excluding any net capital gain on which the Predecessor Fund paid tax under section 852(b)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code), if any, for all periods up to and through the Closing Date.

1.9 Prior to the Closing, the Successor Fund will issue one Class A share of beneficial interest of the Successor Fund (the "Initial Share") to the Adviser or one of its affiliates (the "Sole Shareholder") in exchange for $1.00 for the sole purpose of allowing the Sole Shareholder to approve certain matters to facilitate the organization of the Successor Fund.  Prior to the Closing, the Initial Share will be redeemed and cancelled by the Successor Fund in exchange for $1.00.

1.10 The Predecessor Fund shall be the accounting and performance survivor in the Reorganization, with the result that the Successor Fund, as the corporate survivor in the Reorganization, shall adopt the accounting and performance history of the Predecessor Fund.

1.11 No sales load, contingent deferred sales charge, commission, redemption fee or other transactional fee will be charged by the Successor Fund as a result of, or in connection with, the Reorganization.

2.4 Any reporting responsibility of the Predecessor Fund with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), any state securities commission, any federal, state or local tax authority, or any other regulatory authority is and shall remain the responsibility of the Predecessor Fund until the Closing.

(b) The Predecessor Trust is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act, and, to such counsel’s knowledge, such registration under the Investment Company Act is in full force and effect.

(c) To the knowledge of such counsel, no consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental authority of the United States or the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is required for consummation by the Predecessor Fund of the transactions contemplated herein, except as have been obtained.

(d) The execution and delivery of the Agreement by the Predecessor Trust on behalf of Predecessor Fund, did not, and the consummation by the Predecessor Fund of the transactions contemplated herein will not, violate the Predecessor Fund’s Declaration of Trust or By-Laws (assuming the requisite approval of the Predecessor Fund’s shareholders has been obtained in accordance with the requirements of its Declaration of Trust and By-Laws).

ARTICLE VIII

expenses

8.1 The Adviser will bear the expenses associated with the preparation, printing and mailing of the Proxy Statement, the solicitation of votes and costs of holding the meeting.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, expenses will in any event be paid by the party directly incurring such expenses if and to the extent that the payment by another party of such expenses would result in the disqualification of the Predecessor Fund or the Successor Fund, as the case may be, as a RIC.

ARTICLE IX

Termination

9.1 This Agreement may be terminated by the mutual agreement of the parties, and such termination may be effected by the President or any Vice President of the Predecessor Trust and the Successor Trust without further action by the Boards.  In addition, this Agreement may be terminated at or before the Closing due to:

9.1.1 a breach by any other party of any representation, warranty, or agreement contained herein to be performed at or before the Closing, if not cured within 30 days of notice of such breach and prior to the Closing;

9.1.2 a condition precedent to the obligations of the terminating party that has not been met or waived and it reasonably appears that it will not or cannot be met; or

9.1.3 a determination by the Board of a Fund that the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein is not in the best interests of its respective Fund.

In the event of any such termination, there shall be no liability for damages on the part of either Fund or any Trustee or officer of either the Predecessor Trust or Successor Trust.

ARTICLE X

Amendment

This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only in writing by the parties; provided, however, that following the shareholder meeting called by the Predecessor Fund pursuant to Section 4.2, no such amendment may have the effect of changing the provisions for determining the number of Successor Fund Shares to be distributed to the Predecessor Fund’s shareholders under this Agreement without their further approval and the further approval of the Funds’ Boards (including the determination required by Rule 17a-8(a) under the Investment Company Act with respect to the Predecessor Fund), and provided further that nothing contained in this Article X shall be construed as requiring additional approval to amend this Agreement to change the Closing Date or the Closing.

ARTICLE XI

Headings; Counterparts; Governing Law; Assignment;
ENTIRE AGREEMENT

11.1 This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties.

11.2 The article and section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

11.3 This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original.

11.4 This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

11.5 This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, and no assignment or transfer hereof or of any rights or obligations hereunder shall be made by any party without the written consent of the other parties.  Nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give any person, firm, corporation or other entity other than the parties and their respective successors and assigns any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

11.6 It is understood and agreed that the use of a single agreement is for administrative convenience only and that this Agreement constitutes a separate agreement between the Successor Trust, on behalf of each Successor Fund, and the Predecessor Trust, on behalf of the corresponding Predecessor Fund, as if each party had executed a separate document.  No Fund will have any liability for the obligations of any other Fund, and the liabilities of each Fund will be several and not joint.

11.7 With respect to the Predecessor Trust, it is expressly agreed that the obligations of such Trust and the Predecessor Fund hereunder shall not be binding upon any of the Board members, shareholders, nominees, officers, agents, or employees of the Fund personally, but shall bind only the property of the Predecessor Fund, as provided in the Predecessor Trust’s Declaration of Trust, which is on file with the Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  The execution and delivery of this Agreement have been authorized by the Board, and signed by authorized officers of the Fund acting as such.  Neither the authorization by such Board members nor the execution and delivery by such officers shall be deemed to have been made by any of them individually or to impose any liability on any of them personally, but shall bind only the property of the Predecessor Fund as provided in the Predecessor Trust’s Declaration of Trust.

11.8 The Successor Trust is a Delaware statutory trust organized in series of which the Successor Fund constitutes one such series, and the Successor Trust is executing this Agreement with respect to the Successor Fund only.  Pursuant to the governing instrument of the Successor Trust and Section 3804(a) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, there is a limitation on liabilities of each series such that (a) the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to the Successor Fund are enforceable against the assets of the Successor Fund only, and not against the assets of the Successor Trust generally or the assets of any other series thereof and (b) none of the debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to the Successor Trust generally or any other series thereof are enforceable against the assets of the Successor Fund.
