AMONG SERIES OF JPMORGAN TRUST I AND JPMORGAN TRUST II

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (“Agreement”) is made as of this        day of       , 2014, by and between JPMorgan Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (“Trust I”), on behalf of its series JPMorgan Intermediate Tax Free Bond Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”), and JPMorgan Trust II, a Delaware statutory trust, (“Trust II,” together with Trust I, a “Trust” or the “Trusts”), on behalf of each of the following of its series, JPMorgan Arizona Municipal Bond Fund, JPMorgan Michigan Municipal Bond Fund and JPMorgan Ohio Municipal Bond Fund (each, an “Acquired Fund” and collectively, the “Acquired Funds”).

WHEREAS, each of the Acquired Funds and the Acquiring Fund is a series of an open-end, investment company of the management type registered pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”);

WHEREAS, the contemplated reorganizations and liquidations will consist of (1) the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer and delivery of all of the property and assets of each Acquired Fund to the Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for shares of beneficial interest of the Acquiring Fund (“Acquiring Fund Shares”) corresponding to the outstanding shares of beneficial interest of the Acquired Fund (“Acquired Fund Shares”), as described herein, (2) the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all liabilities of the respective Acquired Fund and (3) the distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the Shareholders of each Acquired Fund in complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund, as provided herein (“Reorganizations”), all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Trustees of Trust I have determined, with respect to the Acquiring Fund, that the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer and delivery of all of the property and assets of the respective Acquired Fund for Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of such Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund is in the best interests of the Acquiring Fund, and that the interests of the existing Shareholders of the Acquiring Fund will not be diluted as a result of these transactions; and

WHEREAS, the Trustees of Trust II have determined, with respect to each Acquired Fund, that the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer and delivery of all of the property and assets of the Acquired Fund for Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund is in the best interests of each Acquired Fund and that the interests of the existing Shareholders of the Acquired Funds will not be diluted as a result of these transactions;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:

1. REORGANIZATIONS

1.1 Subject to the requisite approvals and the other terms and conditions herein set forth and on the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, Trust II, on behalf of each Acquired Fund, agrees to sell, assign, convey, transfer and deliver all of its property and assets, as set forth in paragraph 1.2, to the Acquiring

B-1

Fund, and Trust I, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, agrees in exchange therefor (a) to deliver to the respective Acquired Fund a number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest of the Acquiring Fund of the respective class (the “Merger Shares”) set forth on Schedule B having an aggregate net asset value equal to the value of the properties and assets of the Acquired Fund attributable to the shares of the Acquired Fund on such date less the value of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund attributable to those shares of the Acquired Fund as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 3.1, determined by dividing the value of such Acquired Fund’s net assets (computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.1) by the net asset value of one share of Acquiring Fund Shares (computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2); and (b) to assume all liabilities of the respective Acquired Fund, as set forth in paragraph 1.3. Such transactions shall take place on the date of the closing provided for in paragraph 3.1 (“Closing Date”).

1.2 The property and assets of Trust II attributable to each Acquired Fund to be sold, assigned, conveyed, transferred and delivered to Trust I, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, shall consist of all assets and property, including, without limitation, all rights, cash, securities, commodities and futures interests and dividends or interests receivable that are owned by an Acquired Fund and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Acquired Fund on the Valuation Date as defined in paragraph 2.1 (collectively, “Assets”). Each Acquired Fund will sell, assign, convey, transfer and deliver to the Acquiring Fund any rights, stock dividends, or other securities received by the Acquired Fund after the Closing Date as stock dividends or other distributions on or with respect to the property and assets transferred, which rights, stock dividends, and other securities shall be deemed included in the property and assets transferred to the Acquiring Fund at the Closing Date and shall not be separately valued, in which case any such distribution that remains unpaid as of the Closing Date shall be included in the determination of the value of the assets of the Acquired Fund acquired by the Acquiring Fund.

1.3 Each Acquired Fund will make reasonable efforts to discharge all of its known liabilities and obligations prior to the Valuation Date, as defined below. Trust I, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, shall assume all of the liabilities of the respective Acquired Fund, whether accrued or contingent, known or unknown, existing at the Valuation Date (collectively, “Liabilities”). On or as soon as practicable prior to the Closing Date, each Acquired Fund will declare and pay to its Shareholders of record one or more dividends and/or other distributions so that it will have distributed substantially all (and in no event less than 98%) of its investment company taxable income (computed without regard to any deduction for dividends paid) and realized net capital gain, if any, for the current taxable year through the Closing Date.

1.4 Immediately following the actions contemplated by paragraph 1.1, Trust II shall take such actions necessary to complete the liquidation of each Acquired Fund. To complete the liquidation, Trust II, on behalf of each Acquired Fund, shall (a) distribute to its Shareholders of record as of the Closing Date, as defined in paragraph 3.1 (“Acquired Fund Shareholders”), on a pro rata basis, the Acquiring Fund Shares received by Trust II, on behalf of the respective Acquired Fund, pursuant to paragraph 1.1 and (b) completely liquidate. Such liquidation shall be accomplished, with respect to the Acquired Fund Shares, by the transfer of the corresponding Acquiring Fund Shares then credited to the account of such Acquired Fund on the books of the Acquiring Fund to open accounts on the share records of the Acquiring Fund in the names of the applicable Acquired Fund Shareholders. The aggregate net asset value of Acquiring Fund Shares to be so credited to Acquired Fund Shareholders shall be equal to the aggregate net asset value of the Acquired Fund Shares owned by Acquired Fund Shareholders on the Closing Date. All issued and outstanding Acquired Fund Shares will be canceled on the books of each Acquired Fund. The Acquiring Fund shall not issue certificates representing Acquiring Fund Shares in connection with such exchange.

1.5 Ownership of Acquiring Fund Shares will be shown on the books of the Acquiring Fund’s transfer agent.

1.6 Any reporting responsibility of an Acquired Fund, including, but not limited to, the responsibility for filing regulatory reports, tax returns, or other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission

B-2

(“Commission”), any state securities commission, and any federal, state or local tax authorities or any other relevant regulatory authority, is and shall remain the responsibility of such Acquired Fund.

1.7 The consummation of the transactions provided for in this Agreement with respect to an Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund is not contingent upon the consummation of the transactions provided for in this Agreement as to any other Acquired Fund(s) and Acquiring Fund.

2. VALUATION

2.1 The value of the Assets of each Acquired Fund shall be determined as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), usually 4:00 p.m. New York time, and after the declaration of any dividends by the Acquired Fund, on the Closing Date (such time and date being hereinafter called the “Valuation Date”), computed using the valuation procedures which the Acquiring Fund would use in determining the fair market value of its assets and liabilities.

2.2 The net asset value per share of the Acquiring Fund’s Acquiring Fund Shares shall be determined to four decimal places on the Valuation Date, using the valuation procedures established by the Board of Trustees of Trust I.

2.3 The number of Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued in exchange for the Assets shall be determined with respect to each Acquired Fund by dividing the value of the net assets with respect to the Acquired Fund Shares, determined as set forth in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of the Acquiring Fund Shares, determined as set forth in paragraph 2.2.

3. CLOSING AND CLOSING DATE

3.1 The Closing Date shall be June 13, 2014, or such other date as the parties may agree. All acts taking place at the closing of the transactions provided for in this Agreement (“Closing”) shall be deemed to take place simultaneously as of the close of business on the Closing Date unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. The “close of business” on the Closing Date shall be as of 5:00 p.m., New York time. The Closing shall be held at the offices of X.X. Xxxxxx Investment Management Inc. or at such other time and/or place as the parties may agree.

3.2 Trust II shall direct JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”), as custodian for each Acquired Fund (“Acquired Fund Custodian”), to deliver to Trust I, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, at the Closing, a certificate of an authorized officer stating that (i) the Assets of each Acquired Fund have been delivered in proper form to the Acquiring Fund on the Closing Date, and (ii) all necessary taxes in connection with the delivery of the Assets of the Acquired Fund, including all applicable federal and state stock transfer stamps, if any, have been paid or provision for payment has been made. Each Acquired Fund’s portfolio securities represented by a certificate or other written instrument shall be presented by the Acquired Fund Custodian to JPMCB, as the custodian for the Acquiring Fund (“Acquiring Fund Custodian”). Such presentation shall be made for examination no later than five business days preceding the Closing Date, and such certificates and other written instruments shall be transferred and delivered by the Acquired Fund as of the Closing Date for the account of the Acquiring Fund duly endorsed in proper form for transfer in such condition as to constitute good delivery thereof. The Acquired Fund Custodian shall deliver to the Acquiring Fund Custodian as of the Closing Date by book entry, in accordance with the customary practices of the Acquired Fund Custodian and of each securities depository, as defined in Rule 17f-4 under the 1940 Act, the Assets of each Acquired Fund deposited with such depositories. The cash to be transferred by each Acquired Fund shall be delivered to the Acquiring Fund Custodian on the Closing Date.

3.3 Trust II shall direct Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., in its capacity as transfer agent for each Acquired Fund (“Transfer Agent”), to deliver to Trust I, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, at the Closing a certificate of

B-3

an authorized officer stating that its records contain the name and address of each Acquired Fund Shareholder and the number and percentage ownership of Acquired Fund Shares owned by each such Shareholder immediately prior to the Closing. The Acquiring Fund shall deliver to the Secretary of the respective Acquired Fund a confirmation evidencing that (a) the appropriate number of Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to such Acquired Fund’s account on the books of the Acquiring Fund pursuant to paragraph 1.1 prior to the actions contemplated by paragraph 1.4 and (b) the appropriate number of Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to the accounts of the Acquired Fund Shareholders on the books of the Acquiring Fund pursuant to paragraph 1.4. At the Closing each party shall deliver to the other party such bills of sale, checks, assignments, share certificates, if any, receipts or other documents as the other party or its counsel may reasonably request.

3.4 In the event that at the Valuation Date (a) the NYSE or another primary trading market for portfolio securities of the Acquiring Fund or any Acquired Fund (each an “Exchange”) shall be closed to trading or trading thereupon shall be restricted, or (b) trading or the reporting of trading on such Exchange or elsewhere shall be disrupted so that accurate appraisal of the value of the net assets of any Acquired Fund or the Acquiring Fund is impracticable (in the judgment of the Board of Trustees of Trust I with respect to the Acquiring Fund and the Board of Trustees of Trust II with respect to the Acquired Funds), the Closing Date shall be postponed with respect to such Acquired Fund or Acquiring Fund until the first Friday (that is also a business day) after the day when trading shall have been fully resumed and reporting shall have been restored.

4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

4.1 Except as has been fully disclosed to Trust I in Schedule 4.1 to this Agreement, Trust II, on behalf of each Acquired Fund, represents and warrants as follows:

Trust II is not required to qualify as a foreign trust or association in any jurisdiction, except for any jurisdiction in which it has so qualified or in which a failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect. Trust II has all necessary federal, state and local authorization to carry on its business as now being conducted and to fulfill the terms of this Agreement, except as set forth in paragraph 4.1.

(b) Trust II is a registered investment company classified as a management company of the open-end type, and its registration with the Commission as an investment company under the 1940 Act, and the registration of the Acquired Fund Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”), is in full force and effect.

(d) The current prospectus and statement of additional information of each Acquired Fund conforms in all material respects to the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and does not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading.

(e) On the Closing Date, Trust II, on behalf of each Acquired Fund, will have good and marketable title to the Assets and full right, power, and authority to sell, assign, convey, transfer and deliver such Assets hereunder free of any liens or other encumbrances, and upon delivery and payment for the

B-4

Assets, Trust I, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, will acquire good and marketable title thereto, subject to no restrictions on the full transfer thereof, including such restrictions as might arise under the 1933 Act.

(f) Each Acquired Fund is not engaged currently, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will not result in, (i) a material violation of the Charter or by-laws of Trust II, as applicable, or of any agreement, indenture, instrument, contract, lease or other undertaking to which Trust II, on behalf of each Acquired Fund, is a party or by which it is bound, or (ii) the acceleration of any material obligation, or the imposition of any material penalty, under any agreement, indenture, instrument, contract, lease, judgment or decree to which Trust II, on behalf of each Acquired Fund, is a party or by which it is bound.

Each contract listed in Schedule 4.1 is a valid, binding and enforceable obligation of each party thereto (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other party thereto) and the assignment by the Acquired Fund to the Acquiring Fund of each such contract will not result in the termination of such contract, any breach or default thereunder or the imposition of any penalty thereunder.

(h) No litigation or administrative proceeding or investigation of or before any court or governmental body is presently pending or, to Trust II’s knowledge, threatened against Trust II, with respect to any Acquired Fund or any of such Acquired Fund’s properties or assets, that, if adversely determined, would materially and adversely affect its financial condition or the conduct of its business. Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.1, Trust II, on behalf of each Acquired Fund, knows of no facts which might form the basis for the institution of such proceedings and is not a party to or subject to the provisions of any order, decree or judgment of any court or governmental body which materially and adversely affects its business or its ability to consummate the transactions herein contemplated.

(i) The Statement of Assets and Liabilities, Statement of Operations, Statement of Changes in Net Assets, and Schedule of Investments of each Acquired Fund at February 28, 2013, have been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, and are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) consistently applied.

For the purposes of this subparagraph (j), a decline in net asset value per share of Acquired Fund Shares due to declines in market values of securities held by an Acquired Fund, the discharge of Acquired Fund liabilities, or the redemption of Acquired Fund Shares by Shareholders of an Acquired Fund shall not constitute a material adverse change.

B-5

8.1 This Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein shall have been approved by the requisite vote of the holders of the outstanding shares of each Acquired Fund in accordance with the provision of the Charter and by-laws of Trust II, applicable state law and the 1940 Act, and certified copies of the resolutions evidencing such approval shall have been delivered to the Acquiring Fund. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Trust I nor Trust II may waive the condition set forth in this paragraph 8.1.

8.2 On the Closing Date, no action, suit or other proceeding shall be pending or, to Trust I’s or Trust II’s knowledge, threatened before any court or governmental agency in which it is sought to restrain or prohibit, or obtain damages or other relief in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein.

B-11

8.3 All consents of other parties and all other consents, orders and permits of federal, state and local regulatory authorities deemed necessary by Trust I and Trust II to permit consummation, in all material respects, of the transactions contemplated hereby shall have been obtained, except where failure to obtain any such consent, order or permit would not involve a risk of a material adverse effect on the assets or properties of the Acquiring Fund or any Acquired Fund, provided that either party hereto may for itself waive any of such conditions.

8.4 The Registration Statement shall have become effective under the 1933 Act, and no stop orders suspending the effectiveness thereof shall have been issued and, to the best knowledge of the parties hereto, no investigation or proceeding for that purpose shall have been instituted or be pending, threatened or contemplated under the 0000 Xxx.

8.5 With respect to each Reorganization, the parties shall have received an opinion of Dechert LLP dated the Closing Date, substantially to the effect that for federal income tax purposes: (i) The transfer of the Acquired Fund’s assets to the Acquiring Fund in exchange for Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption of the Acquired Fund’s liabilities, followed by a distribution of those shares to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund and the termination of the Acquired Fund will constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the Code; (ii) No gain or loss will be recognized by the Acquiring Fund upon the receipt of the assets of the Acquired Fund in exchange for Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund; (iii) The Acquiring Fund’s tax basis in the assets of the Acquired Fund acquired by the Acquiring Fund in the Reorganization will be the same as the tax basis of such assets in the hands of the Acquired Fund immediately prior to the Reorganization; (iv) The holding periods of the assets of the Acquired Fund in the hands of the Acquiring Fund will include the periods during which such assets were held by the Acquired Fund (except where investment activities of the Acquiring Fund have the effect of reducing or eliminating a holding period with respect to an asset); (v) No gain or loss will be recognized by the Acquired Fund upon the transfer of its assets to the Acquiring Fund in exchange for Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund, or upon the distribution (whether actual or constructive) of Acquiring Fund Shares by the Acquired Fund to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund in liquidation; (vi) The shareholders of the Acquired Fund will not recognize a gain or loss upon the exchange of their shares of the Acquired Fund for Acquiring Fund Shares; (vii) The aggregate tax basis of Acquiring Fund Shares that the shareholders of the Acquired Fund receive in connection with the Reorganization will be the same as the aggregate tax basis of their respective shares in the Acquired Fund exchanged therefor; and (viii) The holding period for the shares of the Acquiring Fund that a shareholder of the Acquired Fund receives in the Reorganization will include the period during which the Acquired Fund Shares exchanged therefor were held by such shareholder, provided that on the date of the exchange it held such Acquired Fund Shares as capital assets. Dechert LLP will express no view with respect to the effect of the transaction on any transferred asset as to which any unrealized gain or loss is required to be recognized under federal income tax principles (i) at the end of a taxable year or upon the termination thereof, or (ii) upon the transfer of such asset regardless of whether such a transfer would otherwise be a non-taxable transaction. The opinion will be subject to receipt of and based on certain factual certifications made by officers of the Acquiring Fund and the Acquired Fund and will also be based on customary assumptions. It is possible that the Internal Revenue Service could disagree with Dechert LLP’s opinion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Trust I nor Trust II may waive the conditions set forth in this paragraph 8.5.

8.6 Trust I and Trust II shall have received the opinion of Dechert LLP dated the Closing Date (subject to customary assumptions, qualifications and limitations and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Trust I, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, and Trust II, on behalf of each Acquired Fund) substantially to the effect that, based upon certain facts and certifications made by Trust I, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, and Trust II, on behalf of each Acquired Fund, and their authorized officers, (a) Each of Trust I and Trust II is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Delaware and has power to own all of its properties and assets and to carry on its business as presently conducted, and the Acquiring Fund and each Acquired Fund is a
