EXHIBIT h(5)(c)
AIM ADVISOR FUNDS, INC.
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the "Agreement"), dated as of May
10, 2000, is entered into by and between AIM Advisor Funds, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Company"), acting on its own behalf and on behalf of each of
its series portfolios, all of which are identified on Schedule A to this
Agreement, and AIM Advisor Funds, a Delaware business trust (the "Trust"),
acting on its own behalf and on behalf of each of its series portfolios, all of
which are identified on Schedule A to this Agreement.
BACKGROUND
The Company is organized as a series 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
common stock representing interests in three separate series portfolios. Each of
these series portfolios is listed on Schedule A and is referred to in this
Agreement as a "Current Fund."
The Board of Directors of the Company has designated multiple
classes of common stock that represent interests in each Current Fund. Each of
these classes is listed on Schedule B and is referred to in this Agreement as a
"Current Fund Class."
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 established three
series portfolios corresponding to the Current Funds (each a "New Fund"), and
has designated multiple classes of shares of beneficial interest in each New
Fund corresponding to the Current Fund Classes (each a "New Fund Class").
Schedule A lists the New Funds and Schedule B lists the New Fund Classes.
The Reorganization will occur through the transfer of all of the
assets of each Current Fund to the corresponding New Fund. In consideration of
its receipt of these assets, each New Fund will assume all of the liabilities of
the corresponding Current Fund, and will issue to the Current Fund shares of
beneficial interest in the New Fund ("New Fund Shares"). New Fund Shares
received by the Current Fund will have an aggregate net asset value equal to the
aggregate net asset value of the shares of the Current Fund immediately prior to
the Reorganization (the "Current Fund Shares"). The Current Fund will then
distribute the New Fund Shares it has received to its shareholders.
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, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Current
Funds, and by the Trust, on its own behalf and on
2
behalf of the New Funds, as a Plan of Reorganization within the meaning of
Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

2. PLAN OF REORGANIZATION.
2.1 The Company agrees, on behalf of each Current Fund, to assign, sell
convey, transfer and deliver all of the Assets of each Current Fund to its
corresponding New Fund. The Trust, on behalf of the each New Fund agrees in
exchange therefor:
(a) to issue and deliver to the Current Fund the number of full
and fractional (rounded to the third decimal place) New Fund Shares for each New
Fund Class designated in
3
4
Schedule B equal to the number of full and fractional Current Fund Shares for
each corresponding Current Fund Class designated in Schedule B; and
(b) to assume all of the Current Fund's Liabilities.
Such transactions shall take place at the Closing.
2.2 At the Effective Time (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably
practicable), (a) the New Fund Shares issued pursuant to paragraph 5.2 shall be
redeemed by each New Fund for $1.00 and (b) each Current Fund shall distribute
the New Fund Shares received by it pursuant to paragraph 2.1 to the Current
Fund's Shareholders in exchange for such Shareholders' Current Fund Shares. Such
distribution shall be accomplished through opening accounts, by the transfer
agent for the Trust (the "Transfer Agent"), on each New Fund's share transfer
books in the Shareholders' names and transferring New Fund Shares to such
accounts. Each Shareholder's account shall be credited with the respective pro
rata number of full and fractional (rounded to the third decimal place) New Fund
Shares of each New Fund Class due that Shareholder. All outstanding Current Fund
Shares, including those represented by certificates, shall simultaneously be
canceled on each Current Fund's share transfer books. The Trust shall not issue
certificates representing the New Fund Shares in connection with the
Reorganization. However, certificates representing Current Fund Shares shall
represent New Fund Shares after the Reorganization.
2.3 As soon as reasonably practicable after distribution of the New
Fund Shares pursuant to paragraph 2.2, the Company shall dissolve its existence
as corporation under Maryland law.
2.4 Any transfer taxes payable on issuance of New Fund Shares in a name
other than that of the registered holder of the Current Fund Shares exchanged
therefor shall be paid by the person to whom such New Fund Shares are to be
issued, as a condition of such transfer.
2.5 Any reporting responsibility of the Company or each Current Fund to
a public authority is, and shall remain its responsibility up to and including
the date on which it is terminated.
3. CLOSING.
3.1 The Closing shall occur at the principal office of the Company on
September 11, 2000, or on such other date and at such other place upon which the
parties may agree. All acts taking place at the Closing shall be deemed to take
place simultaneously as of the Company's and the Trust's close of business on
the date of the Closing or at such other time as the parties may agree (the
"Effective Time").
3.2 The Company or its fund accounting agent shall deliver to the Trust
at the Closing a certificate of an authorized officer verifying that the
information (including adjusted basis and holding period, by lot) concerning the
Assets, including all portfolio securities, transferred by the Current Funds to
the New Funds, as reflected on the New Funds' books immediately following
4
5
the Closing, does or will conform to such information on the Current Funds'
books immediately before the Closing. The Company shall cause the custodian for
each Current Fund to deliver at the Closing a certificate of an authorized
officer of the custodian stating that (a) the Assets held by the custodian will
be transferred to each corresponding New Fund at the Effective Time and (b) all
necessary taxes in conjunction with the delivery of the Assets, including all
applicable federal and state stock transfer stamps, if any, have been paid or
provision for payment has been made.
3.3 The Company shall deliver to the Trust at the Closing a list of the
names and addresses of each Shareholder of each Current Fund and the number of
outstanding Current Fund Shares of the Current Fund Class owned by each
Shareholder, all as of the Effective Time, certified by the Company's Secretary
or Assistant Secretary. The Trust shall cause the Transfer Agent to deliver at
the Closing a certificate as to the opening on each New Fund's share transfer
books of accounts in the Shareholders' names. The Trust shall issue and deliver
a confirmation to the Company evidencing the New Fund Shares to be credited to
each corresponding Current Fund at the Effective Time or provide evidence
satisfactory to the Company that such shares have been credited to each Current
Fund's account on such books. At the Closing, each party shall deliver to the
other such bills of sale, checks, assignments, stock certificates, receipts, or
other documents as the other party or its counsel may reasonably request.
3.4 The Company and the Trust shall deliver to the other at the Closing
a certificate executed in its name by its President or a Vice President in form
and substance satisfactory to the recipient and dated the Effective Time, to the
effect that the representations and warranties it made in this Agreement are
true and correct at the Effective Time except as they may be affected by the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.
4.1 The Company represents and warrants on its own behalf and on behalf
of each Current Fund as follows:
(a) The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing,
and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland, and its Charter is
on file with the Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation;
(b) The Company is duly registered as an open-end series
management investment company under the 1940 Act, and such registration is in
full force and effect;
(c) Each Current Fund is a duly established and designated series
of the Company;
(d) At the Closing, each Current Fund will have good and
marketable title to its Assets and full right, power, and authority to sell,
assign, transfer, and deliver its Assets free of any liens or other
encumbrances; and upon delivery and payment for the Assets, the corresponding
New Fund will acquire good and marketable title to the Assets;
5
6
(e) The New Fund Shares are not being acquired for the purpose of
making any distribution thereof, other than in accordance with the terms hereof;
(f) Each Current Fund is a "fund" as defined in Section 851(g)(2)
of the Code; each Current Fund qualified for treatment as a RIC for each past
taxable year since it commenced operations and will continue to meet all the
requirements for such qualification for its current taxable year (and the Assets
will be invested at all times through the Effective Time in a manner that
ensures compliance with the foregoing); each Current Fund has no earnings and
profits accumulated in any taxable year in which the provisions of Subchapter M
did not apply to it; and each Current Fund has made all distributions for each
such past taxable year that are necessary to avoid the imposition of federal
excise tax or has paid or provided for the payment of any excise tax imposed for
any such year;
(g) There is no plan or intention of the Shareholders who
individually own 5% or more of any Current Fund Shares and, to the best of the
Company's knowledge, there is no plan or intention of the remaining Shareholders
to redeem or otherwise dispose of any New Fund Shares to be received by them in
the Reorganization. The Company does not anticipate dispositions of those shares
at the time of or soon after the Reorganization to exceed the usual rate and
frequency of redemptions of shares of the Current Fund as a series of an
open-end investment company. Consequently, the Company is not aware of any plan
that would cause the percentage of Shareholder interests, if any, that will be
disposed of as a result of or at the time of the Reorganization will be one
percent (1%) or more of the shares of the Current Fund outstanding as of the
Effective Time;
(h) The Liabilities were incurred by the Current Funds in the
ordinary course of their business and are associated with the Assets;
(i) The Company is not under the jurisdiction of a court in a
proceeding under Title 11 of the United States Code or similar case within the
meaning of Section 368(a)(3)(A) of the Code;
(j) As of the Effective Time, no Current Fund will have
outstanding any warrants, options, convertible securities, or any other type of
rights pursuant to which any person could acquire Current Fund Shares except for
the right of investors to acquire its shares at net asset value in the normal
course of its business as an open-end diversified management investment company
operating under the 1940 Act;
(k) At the Effective Time, the performance of this Agreement shall
have been duly authorized by all necessary action by the Company's shareholders;
and
(l) Throughout the five-year period ending on the date of the
Closing, each Current Fund will have conducted its historic business within the
meaning of Section 1.368-1(d) of the Income Tax Regulations under the Code in a
substantially unchanged manner;
(m) The fair market value of the Assets of each Current Fund
transferred to the corresponding New Fund will equal or exceed the sum of the
Liabilities assumed by the New Fund plus the amount of Liabilities, if any, to
which the transferred Assets are subject.
6
7

of each New Fund, as follows:

existing, and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and its
Certificate of Trust has been duly filed in the office of the Secretary of State
of Delaware;

registration statement filed under the 1940 Act with the SEC and thus will
become duly registered as an open-end management investment company under the
1940 Act;

established and designated series of the Trust;

outstanding shares in any New Fund or any other securities issued by the Trust

Fund's assumption of the Liabilities) will be issued in exchange for the Assets
in the Reorganization;
(g) The New Fund Shares to be issued and delivered to the
corresponding Current Fund hereunder will, at the Effective Time, have been duly
authorized and, when issued and delivered as provided herein, will be duly and
validly issued and outstanding shares of the New Fund, fully paid and
non-assessable;
(h) Each New Fund will be a "fund" as defined in section 851(g)(2)
of the Code and 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 New Funds, has no plan or
intention to issue additional New Fund 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 New Funds,
have any plan or intention to redeem or otherwise reacquire any New Fund 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) Each New Fund will actively continue the corresponding Current
Fund's business in substantially the same manner that the Current Fund conducted
that business immediately before the Reorganization; and no New Fund has any
plan or intention to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Assets, except for
dispositions made in the ordinary course of its
7
8
business or dispositions necessary to maintain its qualification as a RIC,
although in the ordinary course of its business the New Fund will continuously
review its investment portfolio (as each Current Fund 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 any of the New Funds to be
dissolved or merged into another corporation or business trust or "fund" thereof
(within the meaning of section 851(g)(2) of the Code) following the
Reorganization; and
4.3 Each of the Company and the Trust, on its own behalf and on behalf
of each Current Fund or each New Fund, as appropriate, represents and warrants
as follows:
(a) The fair market value of the New Fund Shares of each New Fund
received by each Shareholder will be approximately equal to the fair market
value of the Current Fund Shares of the corresponding Current Fund surrendered
in exchange therefor;
(b) Immediately following consummation of the Reorganization, the
Shareholders will own all the New Fund Shares of each New Fund and will own such
shares solely by reason of their ownership of the Current Fund Shares of the
corresponding Current Fund immediately before the Reorganization;
(c) The Shareholders will pay their own expenses, if any, incurred
in connection with the Reorganization;
(d) There is no intercompany indebtedness between a Current Fund
and a New Fund that was issued or acquired, or will be settled, at a discount;
and
(e) Immediately following consummation of the Reorganization, each
New Fund will hold the same assets, except for assets distributed to
shareholders in the course of its business as a RIC and assets used to pay
expenses incurred in connection with the Reorganization, and be subject to the
same liabilities that the corresponding Current Fund held or was subject to
immediately prior to the Reorganization. Assets used to pay (i) expenses, (ii)
all redemptions (other than redemptions at the usual rate and frequency of the
Current Fund as a series of an open-end investment company), and (iii)
distributions (other than regular, normal distributions), made by a Current Fund
after the date of this Agreement will, in the aggregate, constitute less than
one percent (1%) of its net assets.

Company shall call a meeting of its Shareholders (the "Shareholders Meeting") to
consider and act on this Agreement. The Board of Directors of the Company shall

Fund shall issue, prior to the Closing, one New Fund Share in each New Fund

shareholders), to ratify the selection of the Trust's independent accountants,
and to vote on the matters referred to in Section 5.3;
5.3 Immediately prior to the Closing, the Trust (on its own behalf of

enter into a Master Investment Advisory Agreement, one or more Master
Sub-Advisory Agreements, a Master Administrative Services Agreement, Master
Distribution Agreements, a Custodian Agreement and a Transfer Agency and
Servicing Agreement; shall adopt plans of distribution pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of
the 1940 Act, a multiple class plan pursuant to Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act and
shall enter into or adopt, as appropriate, such other agreements and plans as

who are not "interested persons" of the Trust (as defined in the 0000 Xxx) and
by the Company as the sole shareholder of each New Fund.
5.4 The Company or the Trust, as appropriate, shall file with the SEC

such Registration Statement as are determined by the Company to be necessary and

transfer of the Assets to the corresponding New Fund in exchange solely for New
Fund Shares and the New Fund's assumption of the Liabilities or on the
subsequent distribution of New Fund Shares to the Shareholders, in constructive
exchange for their Current Fund Shares, in liquidation of the Current Fund;
(c) No gain or loss will be recognized to a New Fund on its
receipt of the Assets in exchange for New Fund Shares and its assumption of the

the Current Fund's holding period therefor;
(e) A Shareholder will recognize no gain or loss on the
constructive exchange of Current Fund Shares solely for New Fund Shares pursuant
to the Reorganization; and
(f) A Shareholder's basis for the New Fund Shares of each New Fund
to be received in the Reorganization will be the same as the basis for the
Current Fund Shares of the corresponding Current Fund to be constructively
surrendered in exchange for such New Fund Shares, and a Shareholder's holding
period for such New Fund Shares will include its holding period for the Current
Fund Shares constructively surrendered, provided that the New Fund Shares are
held as capital assets by the Shareholder at the Effective Time.
10
11
6.4 No stop-order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement shall have been issued, and no proceeding for that purpose shall have
been initiated or threatened by the SEC (and not withdrawn or terminated).
At any time prior to the Closing, any of the foregoing conditions

of either the Company or the Trust if, in their judgment, such waiver will not
have a material adverse effect on the interests of the Current Fund's
shareholders.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.3(c), all expenses incurred
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (regardless
of whether they are consummated) will be borne by the parties as they mutually
agree.

Effective Time, whether before or after approval by the Company's Shareholders:
10.1 By either the Company or the Trust (a) in the event of the other
party's material breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant contained
herein to be performed at or prior to the Effective Time, (b) if a condition to
its obligations has not been met and it reasonably appears that such condition
will not or cannot be met, or (c) if the Closing has not occurred on or before
September 11, 2000; or
10.2 By the parties' mutual agreement.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 7, in the event of termination
under Sections 10.1(c) or 10.2, there shall be no liability for damages on the
