AIM SUMMIT FUND, INC.
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the "Agreement"), dated as of
December 7, 1999, is entered into by and between AIM Summit Fund, Inc., a
Maryland corporation (the "Company"), and AIM Summit Fund, a Delaware business
trust (the "Trust"), acting on its own behalf and on behalf of its series
portfolio AIM Summit Fund.
BACKGROUND
The Company is organized as a management investment company and is
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. The Company currently publicly offers shares of its common
stock through AIM Summit Investors Plans I and AIM Summit Investors Plans II,
each a unit investment trust.
The Company desires to change its form and place of organization by
reorganizing as the Trust. In anticipation of such reorganization (the
"Reorganization"), the Board of Trustees of the Trust has designated shares of
beneficial interest in the Trust as an investment portfolio called AIM Summit
Fund (the "Portfolio").
The Reorganization will occur through the transfer of all of the assets of
the Company to the Portfolio. In consideration of its receipt of these assets,
the Portfolio will assume all of the liabilities of the Company, and the Trust
will issue to the Company shares of beneficial interest in the Portfolio (the
"Portfolio Shares"). The Company will then distribute the Portfolio Shares it
has received to its shareholders.
The Board of Directors of the Company has designated two classes of shares
of the common stock of the Company: Class I shares and Class II shares. At the
meeting of the Company's shareholders convened to consider the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, the shareholders will be asked to approve a Plan
of Recapitalization pursuant to which the Company's Class II shares will be
reclassified as Class I shares of the Company's common stock (the
"Recapitalization"). If approved by shareholders, the Plan of Recapitalization
will be effected prior to the Reorganization contemplated by this Agreement.
The Reorganization is subject to, and shall be effected in accordance with,
the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement is intended to be and is adopted by
the Company and by the Trust, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Portfolio,
as a Plan of Reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland, and its Charter

investment company under the 1940 Act, and such registration is in full
force and effect;

company operating under the 1940 Act;

Certificate of Trust has been duly filed in the office of the Secretary of
State of Delaware;

become duly registered as an open-end management investment company under
the 1940 Act;

and designated series of the Trust and any Portfolio Share Classes existing
at the Effective Time will have been duly established and designated

(h) The Portfolio will meet all the requirements to qualify for
treatment as a RIC for its taxable year in which the Reorganization occurs;
(i) The Trust, on behalf of the Portfolio, has no plan or intention to
issue additional Portfolio Shares following the Reorganization except for
shares issued in the ordinary course of its business as a series of an
open-end investment company; nor does the Trust, on behalf of the
Portfolio, have any plan or intention to redeem or otherwise reacquire any
Portfolio Shares issued pursuant to the Reorganization, other than in the
ordinary course of its business or to the extent necessary to comply with
its legal obligation under section 22(e) of the 1940 Act;
(j) The Portfolio will actively continue the Company's business in
substantially the same manner that the Company conducted that business
immediately before the Reorganization; and the Portfolio has no plan or
intention to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Assets, except for

necessary to maintain its qualification as a RIC, although in the ordinary

investment portfolio (as the Company did before the Reorganization) to
determine whether to retain or dispose of particular stocks or securities,
including those included in the Assets;
(k) There is no plan or intention for the Portfolio to be dissolved or

connection with the Reorganization;
(d) There is no intercompany indebtedness between the Company and the
Portfolio that was issued or acquired, or will be settled, at a discount;

8
9
expenses incurred in connection with the Reorganization, and be subject to
the same liabilities that the Company held or was subject to immediately
prior to the Reorganization. Assets used to pay expenses, all redemptions
