Dear Shareholder:

Enclosed is the report of the operations for the Kansas Municipal Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund's portfolio and related financial statements are presented within for your review.

Needless to say, the 12-month period ended July 31, 2009 was an extraordinary and stressful time for investors and those of us who have worked in the financial industry for many years. The U.S. economy is in the midst of its second recession this decade. The depth and breadth of this recession is quite different from the 2001 recession in that the negative effects are being felt by nearly every section of the country. Housing values have plummeted in various parts of the country along with two of the three major U.S. auto companies filing for bankruptcy. Those events along with steep declines in manufacturing have led unemployment to levels approaching ten percent.

Seeking to stimulate the economy and loosen the flow of credit, the federal government passed a $700 billion financial rescue package, followed by a $787 billion economic stimulus package. The Federal Reserve was also quite aggressive in its attempts to boost growth by cutting the Fed Funds rate to 0 - 0.25%. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2009 the Fed announced plans to buy $300 billion in Treasury securities in an effort to improve credit markets along with $750 billion of agency mortgage backed securities to bolster the housing markets.

The previous year was an absolutely brutal year for municipal bond investors and the mutual funds that invest in them were no exception as bond prices tumbled and yields rose with concerns that the economic slowdown would affect states credit risks. Not only are states susceptible to a decline in income tax revenues, but falling home prices, rising unemployment and reduced consumer spending are beginning to take their toll on other types of tax revenue.

While all of the above events could make an investor become more cautious, we believe the municipal market could be one of the best places to find bargains in the fixed income market in 2009. During the period, the federal government and its agencies continued to take extraordinary actions to stabilize and restore confidence in the municipal markets. One of these new programs under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is the Build America Bonds program which provides funding for state and local governments to pursue necessary capital projects such as schools, roads, public buildings, energy projects, housing and public utilities. The program is designed to provide a federal subsidy for a large portion of the borrowing costs of state and local governments to encourage investments in capital projects.

As a result of these actions and the historic tax equivalent yields municipals offered, tax-free bonds produced strong returns for the latter part of the period. Kansas Municipal Fund began the year at $10.44 and ended the year at $10.45 for a total return of 4.06%. This compares to the Barclays Capital Municipal Index's return of 5.11%. The total annual fund operating expense ratio (before expense waivers and reimbursements and including acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.36%. The net annual fund operating expense ratio (after expense waivers and reimbursements and excluding acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.07%.

During the reporting period, we had the opportunity to purchase bonds at higher yields than were available in many years such as: Leavenworth County School District, 5.125% coupon, due 2029; Douglas County School District (Eudora) 5.125% coupon, due 2029; Park City General Obligation 6% coupon, due 2029; and Dodge City Sales Tax, 5.25% coupon, due 2031.

At year end, we continue to search the primary and secondary markets for higher coupon securities as we feel current yields represent an attractive, long-term opportunity to our buy and hold approach as well as providing the most relative value in the current market. This approach throughout different interest rate environments allows us to have a portfolio of broad diversification that helps mitigate interest rate risk.

Income exempt from federal and Kansas state income taxes with preservation of capital remain the primary objectives of the Fund.

If you would like more frequent updates, please visit the Fund's website at www.integrityviking.com for daily prices along with pertinent Fund information.

Sincerely,

Monte Avery
Senior Portfolio Manager

The views expressed are those of Monte Avery, Senior Portfolio Manager with Integrity Viking Funds. The views are subject to change at any time in response to changing circumstances in the market and are not intended to predict or guarantee the future performance of any individual security, market sector, the markets generally, or any of the funds in the Integrity Viking family of funds.

*Performance does not include applicable front-end or contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSCs"), which would have reduced the performance.

Performance data quoted above is historical. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. The principal value and investment return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. You can obtain performance data current to the most recent month end (available within seven business days of the most recent month end) by calling 800-276-1262.

You should consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses carefully before investing. For this and other important information, please obtain a Fund prospectus at no cost from your financial adviser and read it carefully before investing.

Bond prices and therefore the value of bond funds decline as interest rates rise. Because the Fund invests in securities of a single state, the Fund is more susceptible to factors adversely impacting the respective state securities more so than a municipal bond fund that does not concentrate its securities in a single state.


PROXY VOTING OF FUND PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

A description of the policies and procedures that the Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to securities held in the Fund's portfolio is available, without charge and upon request, by calling 800-276-1262. A report on Form N-PX of how the Fund voted any such proxies during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available through the Fund's website at www.integrityviking.com. The information is also available from the Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval ("EDGAR") database on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") at www.sec.gov.

QUARTERLY PORTFOLIO SCHEDULE

Within 60 days of the end of its second and fourth fiscal quarters, the Fund provides a complete schedule of portfolio holdings in its semi-annual and annual reports on the Form N-CSR(S). These reports are filed electronically with the SEC and are delivered to the shareholders of the Fund. The Fund also files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Fund's Forms N-Q and N-CSR(S) are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. The Fund's Forms N-Q and N-CSR(S) may be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES

 

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads), redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 30, 2009 to July 31, 2009.

Actual expenses: The section in the table under the heading "Actual" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns together with the amount you invested to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an account value of $8,600 divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class in the column entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes: The section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, had these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The graph does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions and redemptions of Fund shares.

The graph comparing the Fund's performance to a benchmark index provides you with a general sense of how the Fund performed. To put this information in context, it may be helpful to understand the special differences between the two. The Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index is a national index representative of the national municipal bond market, whereas the Fund concentrates its investments in Kansas municipal bonds. The Fund's total return for the periods shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. The Fund's total return for the period shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. A securities index measures the performance of a theoretical portfolio. Unlike a fund, the index is unmanaged; there are no expenses that affect the results. In addition, few investors could purchase all of the securities necessary to match the index. If they could, transaction costs and other expenses would be incurred. All Fund and benchmark returns include reinvested dividends.

BOARD APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

 

Transaction With Corridor Investors, LLC

Corridor Investors, LLC ("Corridor"), located at 1 Main Street North, Minot, North Dakota 58703, is a North Dakota limited liability company that was organized in January 2009 by Robert E. Walstad, the chairman of the Board of Trustees of Integrity Managed Portfolios, and Shannon D. Radke, president of Viking Fund Management, LLC ("Viking") and Viking Mutual Funds. Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke are Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Corridor. On March 6, 2009, Viking and Corridor entered into an agreement (the "Corridor Agreement") with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. ("Integrity") and Integrity Money Management, among others, to complete certain transactions (collectively, the "Transaction"), certain of which are described below. The Transaction was completed on July 31, 2009, and Viking assumed responsibility for the daily management of the Funds assets.

Prior to the closing of the Transaction, Integrity Money Management served as investment adviser to the Funds. Pursuant to the Corridor Agreement, Integrity (as seller) generally sold its mutual fund services business to Corridor and Viking (collectively, as buyer). More specifically, Corridor and Viking acquired, among other things, certain assets of Integrity Money Management and Viking became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corridor. Integrity Funds Distributor (the Funds' principal underwriter) and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. (the Funds' transfer agent and accounting and administrative services provider) also became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Corridor as a result of the Transaction.

To complete the Transaction, numerous conditions needed to be met, including shareholder approval of advisory contracts with Viking (the "New Agreements"). Shareholders approved, among other things, the New Agreements at meetings held on June 29, 2009 (and, for certain Funds, at meetings adjourned to July 24, 2009) (collectively, the "Shareholder Meetings").

With the completion of the Transaction, Corridor now provides investment advisory, distribution and other services to the Funds, as well as to the four series of Viking Mutual Funds, the six series of The Integrity Funds, and Integrity Fund of Funds, Inc., primarily through its subsidiaries, including Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. ("Integrity Fund Services" or "IFS").

Investment Advisory Agreements with Viking

The following paragraphs summarize the material information and factors considered by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, at meetings held on March 6, 2009 and on March 11, 2009 (collectively, the "March Meeting"), as well as their conclusions relative to such factors in considering the approval of the New Agreements.

During last year, the Board received and considered a variety of materials related to the proposed Transaction (including relating to Corridor and Viking), the rationale therefor, alternatives to the Transaction, and the potential impact to the Funds. In light of the Corridor Agreement, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered the approval of the Agreements at the March meeting. In evaluating the New Agreements, the Board reviewed information furnished by Integrity, Integrity Money Management and Viking, including information regarding: (1) the services to be provided to the Funds, including the nature, extent and quality of such services; (2) the performance of the Funds; (3) the compensation to be paid to Viking including the cost of advisory services to be provided and profits to be realized by Viking and its affiliates, including Corridor, from the relationship with the Funds, taking into account the anticipated expense limitation arrangements; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as a Fund grows and whether the advisory fee reflects these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund's investors; (5) other benefits to be received by Viking from its relationship with the Funds; and (6) the continuity of services to be provided to the Funds by other service providers, including IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor. In considering the New Agreements, the Independent Trustees also relied upon their knowledge of the Transaction, Corridor, Viking and the Funds resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year and their own business judgment in determining the factors to be considered in evaluating the New Agreements. Each Independent Trustee may have accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to the New Agreements. The Independent Trustees did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling. The Independent Trustees' considerations were instead based on a comprehensive consideration of all the information presented. The principal factors considered by the Board and its conclusions are described below.

As outlined in more detail below, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered all factors they believed relevant with respect to appointing Viking as investment adviser and approving the New Agreements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by Viking, including investment advisory and administrative services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by Viking under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that Viking would be a subsidiary of Corridor upon the completion of the Transaction. In this regard, the Board considered that Corridor was a newly formed company, and therefore took into account Corridor's financing prospects and viability, based on information provided by Integrity. Members of Integrity and Viking represented to the Board that Corridor would oversee the consolidation of the operations of Integrity Money Management into those of Viking following the Transaction to ensure a smooth transition and that the Transaction and the New Agreements were not expected to effect any material changes in the manner in which the Funds are managed.

In addition, the Board considered the continuity of investment and administrative personnel. With respect to investment personnel, the Board is familiar with the background, experience and track record of the Funds' investment personnel and these same persons were expected to serve the Funds in the same capacities following the Transaction, except as employees of Viking. More specifically, the Board was advised that the portfolio manager who was managing the Funds would continue to manage such Funds on behalf of Viking.

As discussed in further detail below, with limited exceptions, the Board noted that the administrative personnel then providing services to the Funds were expected to continue in the same capacity and provide the same level of service following the Transaction. Although the same investment personnel were expected to continue to manage the Funds under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that the level of services may be enhanced with the addition of Viking's additional management expertise and marketing resources.

The Board concluded that the approval of the New Agreements and the transition of the Funds' management from Integrity Money Management to Viking were not expected to interfere with the day-to-day management of the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the expected nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by Viking supported approval of the New Agreements.

Performance. The Board considered the performance history of the Funds, and in light of the continuity of investment personnel as employees of Viking, the Board recognized that the New Agreements were not expected to impact the performance of the Funds.

Compensation and Economies of Scale. The Board evaluated the management fees under the New Agreements and noted that the advisory fee rates would be the same as the advisory fee rates paid by the Funds under the then-existing investment advisory agreements. The Board also considered the Funds' expense ratios, including, in particular, the expense limitation provisions applicable to the Funds that were set forth in the then-existing investment advisory agreements and noted that, although such expense limitation provisions would not be included in the New Agreements, Viking would agree to waive fees or reimburse expenses to maintain each Fund's expense level at a level that is equal to or lower than the currently applicable percentages for an initial term until July 31, 2010. The Board considered whether there were any economies of scale and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. In this regard, the Board noted that none of the Funds has reached an asset level that would enable it to benefit substantially from economies of scale. However, the Board recognized that with the integration of the Integrity and Viking fund families, certain shared expenses may be spread over a larger asset base. The Board recognized that even if an alternative investment adviser could potentially result in lower fees, the benefits to shareholders of continuity in the operations and management of the Funds also needed to be accorded weight. The Board concluded that the fees to be paid to Viking under the New Agreements, taking into account relevant expense limitations, were fair and reasonable.

Profitability. In connection with its review of fees, the Board also considered the profitability of Viking for its advisory activities. In this regard, the Board reviewed information regarding the finances of Corridor and Viking and estimated revenues. Based on the information provided, the Board concluded that the level of profitability was reasonable in light of the services provided.

Ancillary Benefits. The Board considered whether there were any ancillary benefits Viking and its affiliates may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. In this regard, the Board considered that Viking does not currently engage in any soft dollar arrangements. Based on their review, the Independent Trustees concluded that any indirect benefits received by Viking and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable and within acceptable parameters.

Continuity of Service Providers. The Board noted that, in addition to acquiring Viking, Corridor would be acquiring IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor as part of the Transaction. Accordingly, IFS would continue to act as administrator, accounting service provider and transfer agent to the Funds and Integrity Funds Distributor would continue to act as distributor to the Funds. The Board also noted that Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. would continue to act as the Funds' custodian. The Board concluded that the continuation of the Funds' service provider contracts would help ensure continuity of Fund operations.

Based on their review of the New Agreements, the materials provided and the considerations described above, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that the adoption of the New Agreements would be in the best interests of the Funds and their respective shareholders and should be approved. In addition, the Board recommended approval of each New Agreement by the respective Fund's shareholders.

Potential Conflicts of Interest—Investment Adviser

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one fund or other account. More specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple funds are presented with the following potential conflicts:

 

 

 

 

The management of multiple funds may result in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each fund. Viking seeks to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of portfolio managers by having them focus on a particular investment discipline. Most other accounts managed by a portfolio manager are managed using the same investment models that are used in connection with the management of the Funds. The management of multiple funds and accounts also may give rise to potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees as the portfolio manager must allocate his time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts.

 

 

 

 

Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke comprise the initial Board of Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke serves as the president and chief executive officer of Corridor. In addition, Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke own membership interests of approximately 10% and 5%, respectively, in Corridor. They received their membership interests, without a cash investment, in exchange for their contributions to Corridor (including experience in the mutual fund industry and their personal guaranties of bank financing) and, in addition, with respect to Mr. Radke, in exchange for his interest in Viking. Other current employees of Corridor own, in the aggregate, approximately 23% of the total membership interests in Corridor, with each employee individually owning an interest of approximately 1%. They received their membership interests in exchange for their experience and role in the operations of Corridor, and without a cash investment.

 

 

 

 

With respect to securities transactions for the Funds, Viking determines which broker to use to execute each order, consistent with the duty to seek best execution of the transaction. The portfolio manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Funds. Securities selected for funds or accounts other than the Funds may outperform the securities selected for the Funds.

 

 

 

 

The appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where Viking has an incentive, such as a performance-based management fee, which relates to the management of one fund but not all funds with respect to which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities. The management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest; there is no assurance that the Funds' code of ethics will adequately address such conflicts. One of the portfolio manager's numerous responsibilities is to assist in the sale of Fund shares. The compensation of Monte Avery (the "Portfolio Manager" of the Funds), is based on salary paid every other week. He is not compensated for client retention. In addition, Corridor sponsors a 401(k) plan for all its employees. This plan is funded by employee elective deferrals.

 

 

 

 

Although the Portfolio Manager generally does not trade securities in his own personal account, each of the Funds has adopted a code of ethics that, among other things, permits personal trading by employees under conditions where it has been determined that such trades would not adversely impact client accounts. Nevertheless, the management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, and there is no assurance that these codes of ethics will adequately address such conflicts.

Viking and the Funds have adopted certain compliance procedures, which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION

The Fund is an investment portfolio of Integrity Managed Portfolios (the "Trust") and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust may offer multiple portfolios; currently six portfolios are offered. The Trust is an unincorporated business trust organized under Massachusetts law on August 10, 1990. The Fund had no operations from that date to November 15, 1990, other than matters relating to organization and registration. On November 15, 1990, the Fund commenced its Public Offering of capital shares.

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide its shareholders with as high a level of current income exempt from both federal and Kansas state income tax as is consistent with preservation of capital. The Fund will seek to achieve this objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of Kansas municipal securities.

Shares of the Fund are offered at net asset value plus a maximum sales charge of 4.25% of the offering price.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investment security valuation—Securities for which quotations are not readily available (which will constitute a majority of the securities held by the Fund) are valued using a matrix system at fair value as determined by Integrity Money Management. The matrix system has been developed based on procedures approved by the Board of Trustees and includes consideration of the following: yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality; type of issue, coupon, maturity, and rating; indications as to value from dealers; and general market conditions.

Because the market value of securities can only be established by agreement between parties in a sales transaction, and because of the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, the fair values as determined may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed. The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date.

The Fund concentrates its investments in a single state. This concentration may result in the Fund investing a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers.

When-issued securities—The Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The value of the securities purchased on a when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Contingent deferred sales charge—In the case of investments of $1 million or more, a 1.00% CDSC may be assessed on shares redeemed within 24 months of purchase (excluding shares purchased with reinvested dividends and/or distributions).

Federal and state income taxes—The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income and any net realized gain on investments to its shareholders; therefore, no provision for income taxes is required.

In June of 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 establishes the minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of tax-return positions in financial statements. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years for purposes of implementing this standard and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the financial statements. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, are classified in the financial statements as "Other expense".

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

The Fund has unexpired net capital loss carryforwards for tax purposes as of July 31, 2009 totaling $8,124,446, which may be used to offset future capital gains. The capital loss carryforward amounts will expire in each of the years ended July 31 as shown in the following table.

$

240,848

For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund made $395,067 in permanent reclassifications to reflect tax character. Reclassifications to paid-in capital relate primarily to expiring capital loss carryforwards.

Net capital losses incurred after October 31 and within the tax year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next taxable year. For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund did not defer to August 1, 2009, any post-October capital losses, post-October currency losses, or post-October passive foreign investment company losses.

Distributions to shareholders—Dividends from net investment income, declared daily and paid monthly, are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund at net asset value or paid in cash. Capital gains, when available, are distributed at least annually.

Premiums and discounts—Premiums and discounts on municipal securities are amortized for financial reporting purposes.

Other—Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from net investment income and realized gains determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses due to wash sales and futures transactions.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

Futures contracts—The Fund may purchase and sell financial futures contracts to hedge against changes in the values of tax-exempt municipal securities the Fund owns or expects to purchase.

A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell units of a particular index or a certain amount of U.S. Government or municipal securities at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with a broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" requirement of the futures exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund, dependent on the fluctuations in the value of the underlying index. Daily fluctuations in value are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. When entering into a closing transaction, the Fund will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contracts sold and the futures contracts to buy. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) related to open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for federal income tax purposes.

Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts. These risks may include changes in the value of the futures contracts that may not directly correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Use of estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 4: INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Integrity Money Management, the Fund's investment adviser; Integrity Funds Distributor, the Fund's underwriter; and Integrity Fund Services, the Fund's transfer, accounting, and administrative services agent; are subsidiaries of Integrity Mutual Funds, the Fund's sponsor.

The Fund has engaged Integrity Money Management to provide investment advisory and management services to the Fund. The Investment Advisory Agreement provides for fees to be computed at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Fund has recognized $103,005 of investment advisory fees after a partial waiver for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Money Management of $9,773 at July 31, 2009 for investment advisory fees. Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are also Officers and Directors of Integrity Money Management.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, Integrity Money Management has agreed to pay all the expenses of the Fund (excluding taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and acquired fund fees and expenses, if any) that exceed 1.07% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis up to the amount of the investment advisory and management fee. Integrity Money Management and Integrity Funds Distributor may also voluntarily waive fees or reimburse expenses not required under the advisory or other contracts from time to time. Accordingly, after fee waivers and expense reimbursements, the Fund's actual total annual operating expenses were 1.07% for the year ended July 31, 2009.

Principal underwriter and shareholder services

Integrity Funds Distributor serves as the principal underwriter for the Fund. The Fund has adopted a distribution plan for each class of shares as allowed by Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. Distribution plans permit the Fund to reimburse its principal underwriter for costs related to selling shares of the Fund and for various other services. These costs, which consist primarily of commissions and service fees to broker-dealers who sell shares of the Fund, are paid by shareholders through expenses called "Distribution Plan expenses." The Fund currently pays an annual distribution fee of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the class. Distribution Plan expenses are calculated daily and paid monthly. The Fund has recognized $116,824 of distribution fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Funds Distributor of $9,866 at July 31, 2009 for distribution fees.

As transfer agent to the Fund, Integrity Fund Services provides shareholder services for a variable fee equal to 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $93,459 of transfer agency fees and expenses for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $7,893 at July 31, 2009 for transfer agency fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's accounting services agent for a monthly fee equal to the sum of a fixed fee of $2,000 and a variable fee equal to 0.05% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, together with reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional minimum fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $47,365 of accounting service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $3,973 at July 31, 2009 for accounting service fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's administrative services agent for a variable fee equal to 0.125% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $58,412 of administrative service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $4,933 at July 31, 2009 for administrative service fees.

NOTE 5: INVESTMENT SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

The cost of purchases and proceeds from the sales of investment securities (excluding short-term securities) aggregated $7,570,397 and $8,915,583, respectively, for the year ended July 31, 2009.

NOTE 6: INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES

At July 31, 2009, the aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same for financial reporting purposes at $46,419,795. The net unrealized appreciation of investments based on the cost was $451,004, which is comprised of $853,177 aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and $402,173 aggregate gross unrealized depreciation. Differences between financial reporting-basis and tax-basis are due to differing treatment for market discount, capital loss deferral, wash sales, and futures transactions.

NOTE 7: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 31, 2009, Corridor Investors, LLC completed a transaction with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. and Integrity Money Management, Inc. With the completion of the transaction, Corridor Investors, LLC and its subsidiaries (Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor, Inc. and Integrity Fund Services, Inc.) began providing investment advisory, distribution and other services to Integrity Managed Portfolios effective August 1, 2009.

Subsequent events noted above were evaluated through September 11, 2009, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of the Kansas Municipal Fund

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Kansas Municipal Fund of the Integrity Managed Portfolios as of July 31, 2009, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Dear Shareholder:

Enclosed is the report of the operations for the Kansas Insured Intermediate Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund's portfolio and related financial statements are presented within for your review.

Needless to say, the 12-month period ended July 31, 2009 was an extraordinary and stressful time for investors and those of us who have worked in the financial industry for many years. The U.S. economy is in the midst of its second recession this decade. The depth and breadth of this recession is quite different from the 2001 recession in that the negative effects are being felt by nearly every section of the country. Housing values have plummeted in various parts of the country along with two of the three major U.S. auto companies filing for bankruptcy. Those events along with steep declines in manufacturing have led unemployment to levels approaching ten percent.

Seeking to stimulate the economy and loosen the flow of credit, the federal government passed a $700 billion financial rescue package, followed by a $787 billion economic stimulus package. The Federal Reserve was also quite aggressive in its attempts to boost growth by cutting the Fed Funds rate to 0 - 0.25%. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2009 the Fed announced plans to buy $300 billion in Treasury securities in an effort to improve credit markets along with $750 billion of agency mortgage backed securities to bolster the housing markets.

The previous year was an absolutely brutal year for municipal bond investors and the mutual funds that invest in them were no exception as bond prices tumbled and yields rose with concerns that the economic slowdown would affect states credit risks. Not only are states susceptible to a decline in income tax revenues, but falling home prices, rising unemployment and reduced consumer spending are beginning to take their toll on other types of tax revenue.

While all of the above events could make an investor become more cautious, we believe the municipal market could be one of the best places to find bargains in the fixed income market in 2009. During the period, the federal government and its agencies continued to take extraordinary actions to stabilize and restore confidence in the municipal markets. One of these new programs under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is the Build America Bonds program which provides funding for state and local governments to pursue necessary capital projects such as schools, roads, public buildings, energy projects, housing and public utilities. The program is designed to provide a federal subsidy for a large portion of the borrowing costs of state and local governments to encourage investments in capital projects.

As a result of these actions and the historic tax equivalent yields municipals offered, tax-free bonds produced strong returns for the latter part of the period. Kansas Insured Intermediate Fund began the year at $10.94 and ended the year at $11.09 for a total return of 5.22%*. This compares to the Barclays Capital Municipal 7-Year Bond Index's return of 8.01%. The total annual fund operating expense ratio (before expense waivers and reimbursements and including acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.36%. The net annual fund operating expense ratio (after expense waivers and reimbursements and excluding acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 0.75%.

During the reporting period, we had the opportunity to purchase bonds at higher yields than were available in many years such as: Montgomery County School District, 5.00% coupon, due 2021; Dodge City Sales Tax, 5.00% coupon, due 2021; Leavenworth County School District, 5.25% coupon, due 2024; and Park City General Obligation, 5.50% coupon, due 2024.

At year end, we continue to search the primary and secondary markets for higher coupon securities as we feel current yields represent an attractive, long-term opportunity to our buy and hold approach as well as providing the most relative value in the current market. This approach throughout different interest rate environments allows us to have a portfolio of broad diversification that helps mitigate interest rate risk.

Income exempt from federal and Kansas state income taxes with preservation of capital remain the primary objectives of the Fund.

Sincerely,

Monte Avery
Senior Portfolio Manager

The views expressed are those of Monte Avery, Senior Portfolio Manager with Integrity Viking Funds. The views are subject to change at any time in response to changing circumstances in the market and are not intended to predict or guarantee the future performance of any individual security, market sector, the markets generally, or any of the funds in the Integrity Viking family of funds.

*Performance does not include applicable front-end or contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSCs"), which would have reduced the performance.

Performance data quoted above is historical. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. The principal value and investment return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. You can obtain performance data current to the most recent month end (available within seven business days of the most recent month end) by calling 800-276-1262.

You should consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses carefully before investing. For this and other important information, please obtain a Fund prospectus at no cost from your financial adviser and read it carefully before investing.

Bond prices and therefore the value of bond funds decline as interest rates rise. Because the Fund invests in securities of a single state, the Fund is more susceptible to factors adversely impacting the respective state securities more so than a municipal bond fund that does not concentrate its securities in a single state.


PROXY VOTING OF FUND PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

A description of the policies and procedures that the Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to securities held in the Fund's portfolio is available, without charge and upon request, by calling 800-276-1262.

The information is also available from the Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval ("EDGAR") database on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") at www.sec.gov.

QUARTERLY PORTFOLIO SCHEDULE

Within 60 days of the end of its second and fourth fiscal quarters, the Fund provides a complete schedule of portfolio holdings in its semi-annual and annual reports on the Form N-CSR(S). These reports are filed electronically with the SEC and are delivered to the shareholders of the Fund. The Fund also files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES

 

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads), redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 30, 2009 to July 31, 2009.

Actual expenses: The section in the table under the heading "Actual" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns together with the amount you invested to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an account value of $8,600 divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class in the column entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes: The section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, had these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The graph does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions and redemptions of Fund shares.

The graph comparing the Fund's performance to a benchmark index provides you with a general sense of how the Fund performed. To put this information in context, it may be helpful to understand the special differences between the two. The Barclays Capital Municipal Seven-Year Maturity Bond Index is a national index representative of the national municipal bond market, whereas the Fund concentrates its investments in Kansas municipal bonds. The Fund's total return for the periods shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. The Fund's total return for the period shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. A securities index measures the performance of a theoretical portfolio. Unlike a fund, the index is unmanaged; there are no expenses that affect the results. In addition, few investors could purchase all of the securities necessary to match the index. If they could, transaction costs and other expenses would be incurred. All Fund and benchmark returns include reinvested dividends.

Corridor Investors, LLC ("Corridor"), located at 1 Main Street North, Minot, North Dakota 58703, is a North Dakota limited liability company that was organized in January 2009 by Robert E. Walstad, the chairman of the Board of Trustees of Integrity Managed Portfolios, and Shannon D. Radke, president of Viking Fund Management, LLC ("Viking") and Viking Mutual Funds. Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke are Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Corridor. On March 6, 2009, Viking and Corridor entered into an agreement (the "Corridor Agreement") with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. ("Integrity") and Integrity Money Management, among others, to complete certain transactions (collectively, the "Transaction"), certain of which are described below. The Transaction was completed on July 31, 2009, and Viking assumed responsibility for the daily management of the Funds assets.

Prior to the closing of the Transaction, Integrity Money Management served as investment adviser to the Funds. Pursuant to the Corridor Agreement, Integrity (as seller) generally sold its mutual fund services business to Corridor and Viking (collectively, as buyer). More specifically, Corridor and Viking acquired, among other things, certain assets of Integrity Money Management and Viking became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corridor. Integrity Funds Distributor (the Funds' principal underwriter) and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. (the Funds' transfer agent and accounting and administrative services provider) also became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Corridor as a result of the Transaction.

To complete the Transaction, numerous conditions needed to be met, including shareholder approval of advisory contracts with Viking (the "New Agreements"). Shareholders approved, among other things, the New Agreements at meetings held on June 29, 2009 (and, for certain Funds, at meetings adjourned to July 24, 2009) (collectively, the "Shareholder Meetings").

With the completion of the Transaction, Corridor now provides investment advisory, distribution and other services to the Funds, as well as to the four series of Viking Mutual Funds, the six series of The Integrity Funds, and Integrity Fund of Funds, Inc., primarily through its subsidiaries, including Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. ("Integrity Fund Services" or "IFS").

Investment Advisory Agreements with Viking

The following paragraphs summarize the material information and factors considered by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, at meetings held on March 6, 2009 and on March 11, 2009 (collectively, the "March Meeting"), as well as their conclusions relative to such factors in considering the approval of the New Agreements.

During last year, the Board received and considered a variety of materials related to the proposed Transaction (including relating to Corridor and Viking), the rationale therefor, alternatives to the Transaction, and the potential impact to the Funds. In light of the Corridor Agreement, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered the approval of the Agreements at the March meeting. In evaluating the New Agreements, the Board reviewed information furnished by Integrity, Integrity Money Management and Viking, including information regarding: (1) the services to be provided to the Funds, including the nature, extent and quality of such services; (2) the performance of the Funds; (3) the compensation to be paid to Viking including the cost of advisory services to be provided and profits to be realized by Viking and its affiliates, including Corridor, from the relationship with the Funds, taking into account the anticipated expense limitation arrangements; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as a Fund grows and whether the advisory fee reflects these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund's investors; (5) other benefits to be received by Viking from its relationship with the Funds; and (6) the continuity of services to be provided to the Funds by other service providers, including IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor. In considering the New Agreements, the Independent Trustees also relied upon their knowledge of the Transaction, Corridor, Viking and the Funds resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year and their own business judgment in determining the factors to be considered in evaluating the New Agreements. Each Independent Trustee may have accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to the New Agreements. The Independent Trustees did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling. The Independent Trustees' considerations were instead based on a comprehensive consideration of all the information presented. The principal factors considered by the Board and its conclusions are described below.

As outlined in more detail below, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered all factors they believed relevant with respect to appointing Viking as investment adviser and approving the New Agreements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by Viking, including investment advisory and administrative services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by Viking under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that Viking would be a subsidiary of Corridor upon the completion of the Transaction. In this regard, the Board considered that Corridor was a newly formed company, and therefore took into account Corridor's financing prospects and viability, based on information provided by Integrity. Members of Integrity and Viking represented to the Board that Corridor would oversee the consolidation of the operations of Integrity Money Management into those of Viking following the Transaction to ensure a smooth transition and that the Transaction and the New Agreements were not expected to effect any material changes in the manner in which the Funds are managed.

In addition, the Board considered the continuity of investment and administrative personnel. With respect to investment personnel, the Board is familiar with the background, experience and track record of the Funds' investment personnel and these same persons were expected to serve the Funds in the same capacities following the Transaction, except as employees of Viking. More specifically, the Board was advised that the portfolio manager who was managing the Funds would continue to manage such Funds on behalf of Viking.

As discussed in further detail below, with limited exceptions, the Board noted that the administrative personnel then providing services to the Funds were expected to continue in the same capacity and provide the same level of service following the Transaction. Although the same investment personnel were expected to continue to manage the Funds under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that the level of services may be enhanced with the addition of Viking's additional management expertise and marketing resources.

The Board concluded that the approval of the New Agreements and the transition of the Funds' management from Integrity Money Management to Viking were not expected to interfere with the day-to-day management of the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the expected nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by Viking supported approval of the New Agreements.

Performance. The Board considered the performance history of the Funds, and in light of the continuity of investment personnel as employees of Viking, the Board recognized that the New Agreements were not expected to impact the performance of the Funds.

Compensation and Economies of Scale. The Board evaluated the management fees under the New Agreements and noted that the advisory fee rates would be the same as the advisory fee rates paid by the Funds under the then-existing investment advisory agreements. The Board also considered the Funds' expense ratios, including, in particular, the expense limitation provisions applicable to the Funds that were set forth in the then-existing investment advisory agreements and noted that, although such expense limitation provisions would not be included in the New Agreements, Viking would agree to waive fees or reimburse expenses to maintain each Fund's expense level at a level that is equal to or lower than the currently applicable percentages for an initial term until July 31, 2010. The Board considered whether there were any economies of scale and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. In this regard, the Board noted that none of the Funds has reached an asset level that would enable it to benefit substantially from economies of scale. However, the Board recognized that with the integration of the Integrity and Viking fund families, certain shared expenses may be spread over a larger asset base. The Board recognized that even if an alternative investment adviser could potentially result in lower fees, the benefits to shareholders of continuity in the operations and management of the Funds also needed to be accorded weight. The Board concluded that the fees to be paid to Viking under the New Agreements, taking into account relevant expense limitations, were fair and reasonable.

Profitability. In connection with its review of fees, the Board also considered the profitability of Viking for its advisory activities. In this regard, the Board reviewed information regarding the finances of Corridor and Viking and estimated revenues. Based on the information provided, the Board concluded that the level of profitability was reasonable in light of the services provided.

Ancillary Benefits. The Board considered whether there were any ancillary benefits Viking and its affiliates may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. In this regard, the Board considered that Viking does not currently engage in any soft dollar arrangements. Based on their review, the Independent Trustees concluded that any indirect benefits received by Viking and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable and within acceptable parameters.

Continuity of Service Providers. The Board noted that, in addition to acquiring Viking, Corridor would be acquiring IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor as part of the Transaction. Accordingly, IFS would continue to act as administrator, accounting service provider and transfer agent to the Funds and Integrity Funds Distributor would continue to act as distributor to the Funds. The Board also noted that Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. would continue to act as the Funds' custodian. The Board concluded that the continuation of the Funds' service provider contracts would help ensure continuity of Fund operations.

Based on their review of the New Agreements, the materials provided and the considerations described above, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that the adoption of the New Agreements would be in the best interests of the Funds and their respective shareholders and should be approved. In addition, the Board recommended approval of each New Agreement by the respective Fund's shareholders.

Potential Conflicts of Interest—Investment Adviser

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one fund or other account. More specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple funds are presented with the following potential conflicts:

 

 

 

 

The management of multiple funds may result in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each fund. Viking seeks to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of portfolio managers by having them focus on a particular investment discipline. Most other accounts managed by a portfolio manager are managed using the same investment models that are used in connection with the management of the Funds. The management of multiple funds and accounts also may give rise to potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees as the portfolio manager must allocate his time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts.

Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke comprise the initial Board of Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke serves as the president and chief executive officer of Corridor. In addition, Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke own membership interests of approximately 10% and 5%, respectively, in Corridor. They received their membership interests, without a cash investment, in exchange for their contributions to Corridor (including experience in the mutual fund industry and their personal guaranties of bank financing) and, in addition, with respect to Mr. Radke, in exchange for his interest in Viking. Other current employees of Corridor own, in the aggregate, approximately 23% of the total membership interests in Corridor, with each employee individually owning an interest of approximately 1%. They received their membership interests in exchange for their experience and role in the operations of Corridor, and without a cash investment.

 

 

 

 

With respect to securities transactions for the Funds, Viking determines which broker to use to execute each order, consistent with the duty to seek best execution of the transaction. The portfolio manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Funds. Securities selected for funds or accounts other than the Funds may outperform the securities selected for the Funds.

 

 

 

 

The appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where Viking has an incentive, such as a performance-based management fee, which relates to the management of one fund but not all funds with respect to which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities. The management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest; there is no assurance that the Funds' code of ethics will adequately address such conflicts. One of the portfolio manager's numerous responsibilities is to assist in the sale of Fund shares. The compensation of Monte Avery (the "Portfolio Manager" of the Funds), is based on salary paid every other week. He is not compensated for client retention. In addition, Corridor sponsors a 401(k) plan for all its employees. This plan is funded by employee elective deferrals.

 

 

 

 

Although the Portfolio Manager generally does not trade securities in his own personal account, each of the Funds has adopted a code of ethics that, among other things, permits personal trading by employees under conditions where it has been determined that such trades would not adversely impact client accounts. Nevertheless, the management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, and there is no assurance that these codes of ethics will adequately address such conflicts.

Viking and the Funds have adopted certain compliance procedures, which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION

The Fund is an investment portfolio of Integrity Managed Portfolios (the "Trust") and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust may offer multiple portfolios; currently six portfolios are offered. The Trust is an unincorporated business trust organized under Massachusetts law on August 10, 1990. The Fund had no operations from that date to November 23, 1992, other than matters relating to organization and registration. On November 23, 1992, the Fund commenced its Public Offering of capital shares.

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide its shareholders with as high a level of current income exempt from both federal and Kansas state income tax as is consistent with preservation of capital. The Fund will seek to achieve this objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of Kansas insured securities.

Shares of the Fund are offered at net asset value plus a maximum sales charge of 2.75% of the offering price.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investment security valuation—Securities for which quotations are not readily available (which will constitute a majority of the securities held by the Fund) are valued using a matrix system at fair value as determined by Integrity Money Management. The matrix system has been developed based on procedures approved by the Board of Trustees and includes consideration of the following: yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality; type of issue, coupon, maturity, and rating; indications as to value from dealers; and general market conditions.

Because the market value of securities can only be established by agreement between parties in a sales transaction, and because of the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, the fair values as determined may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed. The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date.

The Fund concentrates its investments in a single state. This concentration may result in the Fund investing a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers.

When-issued securities—The Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The values of the securities purchased on a when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Federal and state income taxes—The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income and any net realized gain on investments to its shareholders; therefore, no provision for income taxes is required.

In June of 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 establishes the minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of tax-return +positions in financial statements. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years for purposes of implementing this standard and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the financial statements. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, are classified in the financial statements as "Other expense".

The Fund has unexpired net capital loss carryforwards for tax purposes as of July 31, 2009 totaling $1,236,337, which may be used to offset future capital gains. The capital loss carryforward amounts will expire in each of the years ended July 31 as shown in the following table.

$303,542

2013

$544,062

For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund made $58,511 in permanent reclassifications to reflect tax character. Reclassifications to paid-in capital relate primarily to expiring capital loss carryforwards.

Net capital losses incurred after October 31 and within the tax year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next taxable year. For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund deferred to August 1, 2009, post-October capital losses, post-October currency losses, and post-October passive foreign investment company losses of $5,454.

Distributions to shareholders—Dividends from net investment income, declared daily and payable monthly, are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund at net asset value or paid in cash. Capital gains, when available, are distributed at least annually.

Premiums and discounts—Premiums and discounts on municipal securities are amortized for financial reporting purposes.

Other—Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from net investment income and realized gains determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses due to wash sales and futures transactions.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

Futures contracts—The Fund may purchase and sell financial futures contracts to hedge against changes in the values of tax-exempt municipal securities the Fund owns or expects to purchase.

A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell units of a particular index or a certain amount of U.S. Government or municipal securities at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with a broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" requirement of the futures exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund, dependent on the fluctuations in the value of the underlying index. Daily fluctuations in value are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. When entering into a closing transaction, the Fund will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contracts sold and the futures contracts to buy. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) related to open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for federal income tax purposes.

Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts. These risks may include changes in the value of the futures contracts that may not directly correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Use of estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3: CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

As of July 31, 2009, there were unlimited shares of no par authorized; 1,458,649 and 1,129,930 shares were outstanding at July 31, 2009 and July 31, 2008, respectively.

NOTE 4: INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Integrity Money Management, the Fund's investment adviser; Integrity Funds Distributor, the Fund's underwriter; and Integrity Fund Services, the Fund's transfer, accounting, and administrative services agent; are subsidiaries of Integrity Mutual Funds, the Fund's sponsor.

The Fund has engaged Integrity Money Management to provide investment advisory and management services to the Fund. The Investment Advisory Agreement provides for fees to be computed at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. All investment advisory fees were waived for the year ended July 31, 2009. Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are also Officers and Directors of Integrity Money Management.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, Integrity Money Management has agreed to pay all the expenses of the Fund (excluding taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and acquired fund fees and expenses, if any) that exceed 0.75% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis up to the amount of the investment advisory and management fee. Integrity Money Management and Integrity Funds Distributor may also voluntarily waive fees or reimburse expenses not required under the advisory or other contracts from time to time. Accordingly, after fee waivers and expense reimbursements, the Fund's actual total annual operating expenses were 0.75% for the year ended July 31, 2009.

As transfer agent to the Fund, Integrity Fund Services provides shareholder services for a variable fee equal to 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $27,844 of transfer agency fees and expenses for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $2,752 at July 31, 2009 for transfer agency fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's accounting services agent for a monthly fee equal to the sum of a fixed fee of $2,000 and a variable fee equal to 0.05% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, together with reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional minimum fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $30,947 of accounting service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $2,688 at July 31, 2009 for accounting service fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's administrative services agent for a variable fee equal to 0.125% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $24,001 of administrative service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $2,000 at July 31, 2009 for administrative service fees.

NOTE 5: INVESTMENT SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

The cost of purchases and proceeds from the sales of investment securities (excluding short-term securities) aggregated $2,472,572 and $1,847,500, respectively, for the year ended July 31, 2009.

NOTE 6: INVESTMENT IN SECURITIES

At July 31, 2009, the aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same for financial reporting purposes at $15,568,244. The net unrealized appreciation of investments based on the cost was $441,300, which is comprised of $466,304 aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and $25,004 aggregate gross unrealized depreciation. Differences between financial reporting-basis and tax-basis are due to differing treatment for market discount, capital loss deferral, wash sales, and futures transactions.

NOTE 7: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 31, 2009, Corridor Investors, LLC completed a transaction with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. and Integrity Money Management, Inc. With the completion of the transaction, Corridor Investors, LLC and its subsidiaries (Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor, Inc. and Integrity Fund Services, Inc.) began providing investment advisory, distribution and other services to Integrity Managed Portfolios effective August 1, 2009.

Subsequent events noted above were evaluated through September 11, 2009, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of the Kansas Insured Intermediate Fund

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the Kansas Insured Intermediate Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Integrity Managed Portfolios), including the schedule of investments as of July 31, 2009, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Kansas Insured Intermediate Fund of the Integrity Managed Portfolios as of July 31, 2009, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Dear Shareholder:

Enclosed is the report of the operations for the Maine Municipal Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund's portfolio and related financial statements are presented within for your review.

Needless to say, the 12-month period ended July 31, 2009 was an extraordinary and stressful time for investors and those of us who have worked in the financial industry for many years. The U.S. economy is in the midst of its second recession this decade. The depth and breadth of this recession is quite different from the 2001 recession in that the negative effects are being felt by nearly every section of the country. Housing values have plummeted in various parts of the country along with two of the three major U.S. auto companies filing for bankruptcy. Those events along with steep declines in manufacturing have led unemployment to levels approaching ten percent.

Seeking to stimulate the economy and loosen the flow of credit, the federal government passed a $700 billion financial rescue package, followed by a $787 billion economic stimulus package. The Federal Reserve was also quite aggressive in its attempts to boost growth by cutting the Fed Funds rate to 0 - 0.25%. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2009 the Fed announced plans to buy $300 billion in Treasury securities in an effort to improve credit markets along with $750 billion of agency mortgage backed securities to bolster the housing markets.

The previous year was an absolutely brutal year for municipal bond investors and the mutual funds that invest in them were no exception as bond prices tumbled and yields rose with concerns that the economic slowdown would affect states credit risks. Not only are states susceptible to a decline in income tax revenues, but falling home prices, rising unemployment and reduced consumer spending are beginning to take their toll on other types of tax revenue.

While all of the above events could make an investor become more cautious, we believe the municipal market could be one of the best places to find bargains in the fixed income market in 2009. During the period, the federal government and its agencies continued to take extraordinary actions to stabilize and restore confidence in the municipal markets. One of these new programs under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is the Build America Bonds program which provides funding for state and local governments to pursue necessary capital projects such as schools, roads, public buildings, energy projects, housing and public utilities. The program is designed to provide a federal subsidy for a large portion of the borrowing costs of state and local governments to encourage investments in capital projects.

As a result of these actions and the historic tax equivalent yields municipals offered, tax-free bonds produced strong returns for the latter part of the period. Maine Municipal Fund began the year at $10.44 and ended the year at $10.62 for a total return of 5.22%*. This compares to the Barclays Capital Municipal Index's return of 5.11%. The total annual fund operating expense ratio (before expense waivers and reimbursements and including acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.58%. The net annual fund operating expense ratio (after expense waivers and reimbursements and excluding acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.07%.

During the reporting period, we had the opportunity to purchase bonds at higher yields than were available in many years such as: Bangor General Obligation, 4.00% coupon, due 2024; Portland General Obligation, 5.00% coupon, due 2018; Kennebunk Light & Power, 5.00% coupon, due 2022; and Windham General Obligation, 4.00% coupon, due 2014.

At year end, we continue to search the primary and secondary markets for higher coupon securities as we feel current yields represent an attractive, long-term opportunity to our buy and hold approach as well as providing the most relative value in the current market. This approach throughout different interest rate environments allows us to have a portfolio of broad diversification that helps mitigate interest rate risk.

Income exempt from federal and Maine state income taxes with preservation of capital remain the primary objectives of the Fund.

Sincerely,

Monte Avery

Performance data quoted above is historical. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. The principal value and investment return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

Bond prices and therefore the value of bond funds decline as interest rates rise. Because the Fund invests in securities of a single state, the Fund is more susceptible to factors adversely impacting the respective state securities more so than a municipal bond fund that does not concentrate its securities in a single state.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (unaudited)

 

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads), redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 30, 2009 to July 31, 2009.

Actual expenses: The section in the table under the heading "Actual" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns together with the amount you invested to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an account value of $8,600 divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class in the column entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes: The section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, had these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The graph does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions and redemptions of Fund shares.

The graph comparing the Fund's performance to a benchmark index provides you with a general sense of how the Fund performed. To put this information in context, it may be helpful to understand the special differences between the two. The Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index is a national index representative of the national municipal bond market, whereas the Fund concentrates its investments in Maine municipal bonds. The Fund's total return for the periods shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. The Fund's total return for the period shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. A securities index measures the performance of a theoretical portfolio. Unlike a fund, the index is unmanaged; there are no expenses that affect the results. In addition, few investors could purchase all of the securities necessary to match the index. If they could, transaction costs and other expenses would be incurred. All Fund and benchmark returns include reinvested dividends.

BOARD APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

 

Transaction With Corridor Investors, LLC

Corridor Investors, LLC ("Corridor"), located at 1 Main Street North, Minot, North Dakota 58703, is a North Dakota limited liability company that was organized in January 2009 by Robert E. Walstad, the chairman of the Board of Trustees of Integrity Managed Portfolios, and Shannon D. Radke, president of Viking Fund Management, LLC ("Viking") and Viking Mutual Funds. Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke are Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Corridor. On March 6, 2009, Viking and Corridor entered into an agreement (the "Corridor Agreement") with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. ("Integrity") and Integrity Money Management, among others, to complete certain transactions (collectively, the "Transaction"), certain of which are described below. The Transaction was completed on July 31, 2009, and Viking assumed responsibility for the daily management of the Funds assets.

Prior to the closing of the Transaction, Integrity Money Management served as investment adviser to the Funds. Pursuant to the Corridor Agreement, Integrity (as seller) generally sold its mutual fund services business to Corridor and Viking (collectively, as buyer). More specifically, Corridor and Viking acquired, among other things, certain assets of Integrity Money Management and Viking became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corridor. Integrity Funds Distributor (the Funds' principal underwriter) and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. (the Funds' transfer agent and accounting and administrative services provider) also became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Corridor as a result of the Transaction.

To complete the Transaction, numerous conditions needed to be met, including shareholder approval of advisory contracts with Viking (the "New Agreements"). Shareholders approved, among other things, the New Agreements at meetings held on June 29, 2009 (and, for certain Funds, at meetings adjourned to July 24, 2009) (collectively, the "Shareholder Meetings").

With the completion of the Transaction, Corridor now provides investment advisory, distribution and other services to the Funds, as well as to the four series of Viking Mutual Funds, the six series of The Integrity Funds, and Integrity Fund of Funds, Inc., primarily through its subsidiaries, including Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. ("Integrity Fund Services" or "IFS").

Investment Advisory Agreements with Viking

The following paragraphs summarize the material information and factors considered by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, at meetings held on March 6, 2009 and on March 11, 2009 (collectively, the "March Meeting"), as well as their conclusions relative to such factors in considering the approval of the New Agreements.

During last year, the Board received and considered a variety of materials related to the proposed Transaction (including relating to Corridor and Viking), the rationale therefor, alternatives to the Transaction, and the potential impact to the Funds. In light of the Corridor Agreement, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered the approval of the Agreements at the March meeting. In evaluating the New Agreements, the Board reviewed information furnished by Integrity, Integrity Money Management and Viking, including information regarding: (1) the services to be provided to the Funds, including the nature, extent and quality of such services; (2) the performance of the Funds; (3) the compensation to be paid to Viking including the cost of advisory services to be provided and profits to be realized by Viking and its affiliates, including Corridor, from the relationship with the Funds, taking into account the anticipated expense limitation arrangements; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as a Fund grows and whether the advisory fee reflects these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund's investors; (5) other benefits to be received by Viking from its relationship with the Funds; and (6) the continuity of services to be provided to the Funds by other service providers, including IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor. In considering the New Agreements, the Independent Trustees also relied upon their knowledge of the Transaction, Corridor, Viking and the Funds resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year and their own business judgment in determining the factors to be considered in evaluating the New Agreements. Each Independent Trustee may have accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to the New Agreements. The Independent Trustees did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling. The Independent Trustees' considerations were instead based on a comprehensive consideration of all the information presented. The principal factors considered by the Board and its conclusions are described below.

As outlined in more detail below, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered all factors they believed relevant with respect to appointing Viking as investment adviser and approving the New Agreements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by Viking, including investment advisory and administrative services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by Viking under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that Viking would be a subsidiary of Corridor upon the completion of the Transaction. In this regard, the Board considered that Corridor was a newly formed company, and therefore took into account Corridor's financing prospects and viability, based on information provided by Integrity. Members of Integrity and Viking represented to the Board that Corridor would oversee the consolidation of the operations of Integrity Money Management into those of Viking following the Transaction to ensure a smooth transition and that the Transaction and the New Agreements were not expected to effect any material changes in the manner in which the Funds are managed.

In addition, the Board considered the continuity of investment and administrative personnel. With respect to investment personnel, the Board is familiar with the background, experience and track record of the Funds' investment personnel and these same persons were expected to serve the Funds in the same capacities following the Transaction, except as employees of Viking. More specifically, the Board was advised that the portfolio manager who was managing the Funds would continue to manage such Funds on behalf of Viking.

As discussed in further detail below, with limited exceptions, the Board noted that the administrative personnel then providing services to the Funds were expected to continue in the same capacity and provide the same level of service following the Transaction. Although the same investment personnel were expected to continue to manage the Funds under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that the level of services may be enhanced with the addition of Viking's additional management expertise and marketing resources.

The Board concluded that the approval of the New Agreements and the transition of the Funds' management from Integrity Money Management to Viking were not expected to interfere with the day-to-day management of the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the expected nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by Viking supported approval of the New Agreements.

Performance. The Board considered the performance history of the Funds, and in light of the continuity of investment personnel as employees of Viking, the Board recognized that the New Agreements were not expected to impact the performance of the Funds.

Compensation and Economies of Scale. The Board evaluated the management fees under the New Agreements and noted that the advisory fee rates would be the same as the advisory fee rates paid by the Funds under the then-existing investment advisory agreements. The Board also considered the Funds' expense ratios, including, in particular, the expense limitation provisions applicable to the Funds that were set forth in the then-existing investment advisory agreements and noted that, although such expense limitation provisions would not be included in the New Agreements, Viking would agree to waive fees or reimburse expenses to maintain each Fund's expense level at a level that is equal to or lower than the currently applicable percentages for an initial term until July 31, 2010. The Board considered whether there were any economies of scale and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. In this regard, the Board noted that none of the Funds has reached an asset level that would enable it to benefit substantially from economies of scale. However, the Board recognized that with the integration of the Integrity and Viking fund families, certain shared expenses may be spread over a larger asset base. The Board recognized that even if an alternative investment adviser could potentially result in lower fees, the benefits to shareholders of continuity in the operations and management of the Funds also needed to be accorded weight. The Board concluded that the fees to be paid to Viking under the New Agreements, taking into account relevant expense limitations, were fair and reasonable.

Profitability. In connection with its review of fees, the Board also considered the profitability of Viking for its advisory activities. In this regard, the Board reviewed information regarding the finances of Corridor and Viking and estimated revenues. Based on the information provided, the Board concluded that the level of profitability was reasonable in light of the services provided.

Ancillary Benefits. The Board considered whether there were any ancillary benefits Viking and its affiliates may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. In this regard, the Board considered that Viking does not currently engage in any soft dollar arrangements. Based on their review, the Independent Trustees concluded that any indirect benefits received by Viking and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable and within acceptable parameters.

Continuity of Service Providers. The Board noted that, in addition to acquiring Viking, Corridor would be acquiring IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor as part of the Transaction. Accordingly, IFS would continue to act as administrator, accounting service provider and transfer agent to the Funds and Integrity Funds Distributor would continue to act as distributor to the Funds. The Board also noted that Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. would continue to act as the Funds' custodian. The Board concluded that the continuation of the Funds' service provider contracts would help ensure continuity of Fund operations.

Based on their review of the New Agreements, the materials provided and the considerations described above, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that the adoption of the New Agreements would be in the best interests of the Funds and their respective shareholders and should be approved. In addition, the Board recommended approval of each New Agreement by the respective Fund's shareholders.

Potential Conflicts of Interest—Investment Adviser

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one fund or other account. More specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple funds are presented with the following potential conflicts:

 

 

 

 

The management of multiple funds may result in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each fund. Viking seeks to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of portfolio managers by having them focus on a particular investment discipline. Most other accounts managed by a portfolio manager are managed using the same investment models that are used in connection with the management of the Funds. The management of multiple funds and accounts also may give rise to potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees as the portfolio manager must allocate his time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts.

 

 

 

 

Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke comprise the initial Board of Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke serves as the president and chief executive officer of Corridor. In addition, Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke own membership interests of approximately 10% and 5%, respectively, in Corridor. They received their membership interests, without a cash investment, in exchange for their contributions to Corridor (including experience in the mutual fund industry and their personal guaranties of bank financing) and, in addition, with respect to Mr. Radke, in exchange for his interest in Viking. Other current employees of Corridor own, in the aggregate, approximately 23% of the total membership interests in Corridor, with each employee individually owning an interest of approximately 1%. They received their membership interests in exchange for their experience and role in the operations of Corridor, and without a cash investment.

 

 

 

 

With respect to securities transactions for the Funds, Viking determines which broker to use to execute each order, consistent with the duty to seek best execution of the transaction. The portfolio manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Funds. Securities selected for funds or accounts other than the Funds may outperform the securities selected for the Funds.

 

 

 

 

The appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where Viking has an incentive, such as a performance-based management fee, which relates to the management of one fund but not all funds with respect to which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities. The management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest; there is no assurance that the Funds' code of ethics will adequately address such conflicts. One of the portfolio manager's numerous responsibilities is to assist in the sale of Fund shares. The compensation of Monte Avery (the "Portfolio Manager" of the Funds), is based on salary paid every other week. He is not compensated for client retention. In addition, Corridor sponsors a 401(k) plan for all its employees. This plan is funded by employee elective deferrals.

 

 

 

 

Although the Portfolio Manager generally does not trade securities in his own personal account, each of the Funds has adopted a code of ethics that, among other things, permits personal trading by employees under conditions where it has been determined that such trades would not adversely impact client accounts. Nevertheless, the management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, and there is no assurance that these codes of ethics will adequately address such conflicts.

Viking and the Funds have adopted certain compliance procedures, which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION

The Fund is an investment portfolio of Integrity Managed Portfolios (the "Trust") and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust may offer multiple portfolios; currently six portfolios are offered. The Trust is an unincorporated business trust organized under Massachusetts law on August 10, 1990.

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide its shareholders with as high a level of current income exempt from both federal and Maine state income tax as is consistent with preservation of capital. The Fund will seek to achieve this objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of Maine municipal securities.

On December 19, 2003, the Fund became a series of the Trust. Prior to this date, the Fund was part of the Forum Funds and was named the Maine TaxSaver Bond Fund. The Maine TaxSaver Bond Fund commenced operations on December 5, 1991. The Forum Funds is a Delaware business trust that is registered as an open-end management investment company under the 1940 Act.

Shares of the Fund are offered at net asset value plus a maximum sales charge of 4.25% of the offering price.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investment security valuation—Securities for which quotations are not readily available (which will constitute a majority of the securities held by the Fund) are valued using a matrix system at fair value as determined by Integrity Money Management. The matrix system has been developed based on procedures approved by the Board of Trustees and includes consideration of the following: yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality; type of issue, coupon, maturity, and rating; indications as to value from dealers; and general market conditions.

Because the market value of securities can only be established by agreement between parties in a sales transaction, and because of the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, the fair values as determined may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed. The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date.

The Fund concentrates its investments in a single state. This concentration may result in the Fund investing a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers.

When-issued securities—The Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The value of the securities purchased on a when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Contingent deferred sales charge—In the case of investments of $1 million or more, a 1.00% CDSC may be assessed on shares redeemed within 24 months of purchase (excluding shares purchased with reinvested dividends and/or distributions).

Federal and state income taxes—The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income and any net realized gain on investments to its shareholders; therefore, no provision for income taxes is required.

In June of 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 establishes the minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of tax-return positions in financial statements. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years for purposes of implementing this standard and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the financial statements. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, are classified in the financial statements as "Other expense".

The Fund has unexpired net capital loss carryforwards for tax purposes as of July 31, 2009 totaling $464,704, which may be used to offset future capital gains The capital loss carryforward amounts will expire in each of the years ended July 31 as shown in the following table.

Year

Unexpired Capital Losses

2013

$464,704

For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund did not make any permanent reclassifications to reflect tax character.

Net capital losses incurred after October 31 and within the tax year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next taxable year. For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund did not defer to August 1, 2009, any post-October capital losses, post-October currency losses, or post-October passive foreign investment company losses.

Distributions to shareholders—Dividends from net investment income, declared daily and paid monthly, are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund at net asset value or paid in cash. Capital gains, when available, are distributed at least annually.

Premiums and discounts—Premiums and discounts on municipal securities are amortized for financial reporting purposes.

Other—Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from net investment income and realized gains determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses due to wash sales and futures transactions.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

Futures contracts—The Fund may purchase and sell financial futures contracts to hedge against changes in the values of tax-exempt municipal securities the Fund owns or expects to purchase.

A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell units of a particular index or a certain amount of U.S. Government or municipal securities at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with a broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" requirement of the futures exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund, dependent on the fluctuations in the value of the underlying index. Daily fluctuations in value are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. When entering into a closing transaction, the Fund will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contracts sold and the futures contracts to buy. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) related to open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for federal income tax purposes.

Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts. These risks may include changes in the value of the futures contracts that may not directly correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Use of estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

NOTE 4: INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Integrity Money Management, the Fund's investment adviser; Integrity Funds Distributor, the Fund's underwriter; and Integrity Fund Services, the Fund's transfer, accounting, and administrative services agent; are subsidiaries of Integrity Mutual Funds, the Fund's sponsor.

The Fund has engaged Integrity Money Management to provide investment advisory and management services to the Fund. The Investment Advisory Agreement provides for fees to be computed at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Fund has recognized $2,076 of investment advisory fees after a partial waiver for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Money Management of $626 at July 31, 2009 for investment advisory fees. Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are also Officers and Directors of Integrity Money Management.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, Integrity Money Management has agreed to pay all the expenses of the Fund (excluding taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and acquired fund fees and expenses, if any) that exceed 1.07% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis up to the amount of the investment advisory and management fee. Integrity Money Management and Integrity Funds Distributor may also voluntarily waive fees or reimburse expenses not required under the advisory or other contracts from time to time. Accordingly, after fee waivers and expense reimbursements, the Fund's actual total annual operating expenses were 1.07% for the year ended July 31, 2009.

Principal underwriter and shareholder services

Integrity Funds Distributor serves as the principal underwriter for the Fund. The Fund has adopted a distribution plan for each class of shares as allowed by Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. Distribution plans permit the Fund to reimburse its principal underwriter for costs related to selling shares of the Fund and for various other services. These costs, which consist primarily of commissions and service fees to broker-dealers who sell shares of the Fund, are paid by shareholders through expenses called "Distribution Plan expenses." The Fund currently pays an annual distribution fee of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the class. Distribution Plan expenses are calculated daily and paid monthly. The Fund has recognized $36,946 of distribution fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Distributor of $3,175 at July 31, 2009 for distribution fees.

As transfer agent to the Fund, Integrity Fund Services provides shareholder services for a variable fee equal to 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $29,557 of transfer agency fees and expenses for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $2,540 at July 31, 2009 for transfer agency fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's accounting services agent for a monthly fee equal to the sum of a fixed fee of $2,000 and a variable fee equal to 0.05% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, together with reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional minimum fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $31,389 of accounting service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $2,635 at July 31, 2009 for accounting service fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's administrative services agent for a variable fee equal to 0.125% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $24,001 of administrative service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $2,000 at July 31, 2009 for administrative service fees.

NOTE 5: INVESTMENT SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

The cost of purchases and proceeds from the sales of investment securities (excluding short-term securities) aggregated $2,169,731 and $2,608,603, respectively, for the year ended July 31, 2009.

NOTE 6: INVESTMENT IN SECURITIES

At July 31, 2009, the aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same for financial reporting purposes at $14,975,924. The net unrealized appreciation of investments based on the cost was $334,504, which is comprised of $452,596 aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and $118,092 aggregate gross unrealized depreciation. Differences between financial reporting-basis and tax-basis are due to differing treatment for market discount, capital loss deferral, wash sales, and futures transactions.

NOTE 7: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 31, 2009, Corridor Investors, LLC completed a transaction with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. and Integrity Money Management, Inc. With the completion of the transaction, Corridor Investors, LLC and its subsidiaries (Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor, Inc. and Integrity Fund Services, Inc.) began providing investment advisory, distribution and other services to Integrity Managed Portfolios effective August 1, 2009.

Subsequent events noted above were evaluated through September 11, 2009, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

Dear Shareholder:

Enclosed is the report of the operations for the Nebraska Municipal Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund's portfolio and related financial statements are presented within for your review.

Needless to say, the 12-month period ended July 31, 2009 was an extraordinary and stressful time for investors and those of us who have worked in the financial industry for many years. The U.S. economy is in the midst of its second recession this decade. The depth and breadth of this recession is quite different from the 2001 recession in that the negative effects are being felt by nearly every section of the country. Housing values have plummeted in various parts of the country along with two of the three major U.S. auto companies filing for bankruptcy. Those events along with steep declines in manufacturing have led unemployment to levels approaching ten percent.

Seeking to stimulate the economy and loosen the flow of credit, the federal government passed a $700 billion financial rescue package, followed by a $787 billion economic stimulus package. The Federal Reserve was also quite aggressive in its attempts to boost growth by cutting the Fed Funds rate to 0 - 0.25%. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2009 the Fed announced plans to buy $300 billion in Treasury securities in an effort to improve credit markets along with $750 billion of agency mortgage backed securities to bolster the housing markets.

The previous year was an absolutely brutal year for municipal bond investors and the mutual funds that invest in them were no exception as bond prices tumbled and yields rose with concerns that the economic slowdown would affect states credit risks. Not only are states susceptible to a decline in income tax revenues, but falling home prices, rising unemployment and reduced consumer spending are beginning to take their toll on other types of tax revenue.

While all of the above events could make an investor become more cautious, we believe the municipal market could be one of the best places to find bargains in the fixed income market in 2009. During the period, the federal government and its agencies continued to take extraordinary actions to stabilize and restore confidence in the municipal markets. One of these new programs under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is the Build America Bonds program which provides funding for state and local governments to pursue necessary capital projects such as schools, roads, public buildings, energy projects, housing and public utilities. The program is designed to provide a federal subsidy for a large portion of the borrowing costs of state and local governments to encourage investments in capital projects.

As a result of these actions and the historic tax equivalent yields municipals offered, tax-free bonds produced strong returns for the latter part of the period. Nebraska Municipal Fund began the year at $10.03 and ended the year at $10.01 for a total return of 3.71%*. This compares to the Barclays Capital Municipal Index's return of 5.11%. The total annual fund operating expense ratio (before expense waivers and reimbursements and including acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.42%. The net annual fund operating expense ratio (after expense waivers and reimbursements and excluding acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.07%

During the reporting period, we had the opportunity to purchase bonds at higher yields than were available in many years such as: Douglas County Hospital (Methodist Health) 5.50% coupon, due 2038; Sarpy County School District (Papillion-LA Vista) 5.00% coupon, due 2028; Omaha Public Power, 5.25% coupon, due 2023; and University of Nebraska (Student Facilities) 5.00% coupon, due 2028.

At year end, we continue to search the primary and secondary markets for higher coupon securities as we feel current yields represent an attractive, long-term opportunity to our buy and hold approach as well as providing the most relative value in the current market. This approach throughout different interest rate environments allows us to have a portfolio of broad diversification that helps mitigate interest rate risk.

Income exempt from federal and Nebraska state income taxes with preservation of capital remain the primary objectives of the Fund.

If you would like more frequent updates, please visit the Fund's website at www.integrityviking.com for daily prices along with pertinent Fund information.

Sincerely,

Monte Avery
Senior Portfolio Manager

The views expressed are those of Monte Avery, Senior Portfolio Manager with Integrity Viking Funds. The views are subject to change at any time in response to changing circumstances in the market and are not intended to predict or guarantee the future performance of any individual security, market sector, the markets generally, or any of the funds in the Integrity Viking family of funds.

*Performance does not include applicable front-end or contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSCs"), which would have reduced the performance.

Performance data quoted above is historical. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. The principal value and investment return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. You can obtain performance data current to the most recent month end (available within seven business days of the most recent month end) by calling 800-276-1262.

You should consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses carefully before investing. For this and other important information, please obtain a Fund prospectus at no cost from your financial adviser and read it carefully before investing.

Bond prices and therefore the value of bond funds decline as interest rates rise. Because the Fund invests in securities of a single state, the Fund is more susceptible to factors adversely impacting the respective state securities more so than a municipal bond fund that does not concentrate its securities in a single state.


PROXY VOTING OF FUND PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

A description of the policies and procedures that the Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to securities held in the Fund's portfolio is available, without charge and upon request, by calling 800-276-1262.

The information is also available from the Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval ("EDGAR") database on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") at www.sec.gov.

These reports are filed electronically with the SEC and are delivered to the shareholders of the Fund.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (unaudited)

 

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads), redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 30, 2009 to July 31, 2009.

Actual expenses: The section in the table under the heading "Actual" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns together with the amount you invested to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an account value of $8,600 divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class in the column entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes: The section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, had these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The graph comparing the Fund's performance to a benchmark index provides you with a general sense of how the Fund performed. To put this information in context, it may be helpful to understand the special differences between the two. The Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index is a national index representative of the national municipal bond market, whereas the Fund concentrates its investments in Nebraska municipal bonds. The Fund's total return for the periods shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. The Fund's total return for the period shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. A securities index measures the performance of a theoretical portfolio. Unlike a fund, the index is unmanaged; there are no expenses that affect the results. In addition, few investors could purchase all of the securities necessary to match the index. If they could, transaction costs and other expenses would be incurred. All Fund and benchmark returns include reinvested dividends.

BOARD APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

 

Transaction With Corridor Investors, LLC

Corridor Investors, LLC ("Corridor"), located at 1 Main Street North, Minot, North Dakota 58703, is a North Dakota limited liability company that was organized in January 2009 by Robert E. Walstad, the chairman of the Board of Trustees of Integrity Managed Portfolios, and Shannon D. Radke, president of Viking Fund Management, LLC ("Viking") and Viking Mutual Funds. Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke are Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Corridor. On March 6, 2009, Viking and Corridor entered into an agreement (the "Corridor Agreement") with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. ("Integrity") and Integrity Money Management, among others, to complete certain transactions (collectively, the "Transaction"), certain of which are described below. The Transaction was completed on July 31, 2009, and Viking assumed responsibility for the daily management of the Funds assets.

Prior to the closing of the Transaction, Integrity Money Management served as investment adviser to the Funds. Pursuant to the Corridor Agreement, Integrity (as seller) generally sold its mutual fund services business to Corridor and Viking (collectively, as buyer). More specifically, Corridor and Viking acquired, among other things, certain assets of Integrity Money Management and Viking became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corridor. Integrity Funds Distributor (the Funds' principal underwriter) and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. (the Funds' transfer agent and accounting and administrative services provider) also became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Corridor as a result of the Transaction.

To complete the Transaction, numerous conditions needed to be met, including shareholder approval of advisory contracts with Viking (the "New Agreements"). Shareholders approved, among other things, the New Agreements at meetings held on June 29, 2009 (and, for certain Funds, at meetings adjourned to July 24, 2009) (collectively, the "Shareholder Meetings").

With the completion of the Transaction, Corridor now provides investment advisory, distribution and other services to the Funds, as well as to the four series of Viking Mutual Funds, the six series of The Integrity Funds, and Integrity Fund of Funds, Inc., primarily through its subsidiaries, including Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. ("Integrity Fund Services" or "IFS").

Investment Advisory Agreements with Viking

The following paragraphs summarize the material information and factors considered by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, at meetings held on March 6, 2009 and on March 11, 2009 (collectively, the "March Meeting"), as well as their conclusions relative to such factors in considering the approval of the New Agreements.

During last year, the Board received and considered a variety of materials related to the proposed Transaction (including relating to Corridor and Viking), the rationale therefor, alternatives to the Transaction, and the potential impact to the Funds. In light of the Corridor Agreement, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered the approval of the Agreements at the March meeting. In evaluating the New Agreements, the Board reviewed information furnished by Integrity, Integrity Money Management and Viking, including information regarding: (1) the services to be provided to the Funds, including the nature, extent and quality of such services; (2) the performance of the Funds; (3) the compensation to be paid to Viking including the cost of advisory services to be provided and profits to be realized by Viking and its affiliates, including Corridor, from the relationship with the Funds, taking into account the anticipated expense limitation arrangements; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as a Fund grows and whether the advisory fee reflects these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund's investors; (5) other benefits to be received by Viking from its relationship with the Funds; and (6) the continuity of services to be provided to the Funds by other service providers, including IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor. In considering the New Agreements, the Independent Trustees also relied upon their knowledge of the Transaction, Corridor, Viking and the Funds resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year and their own business judgment in determining the factors to be considered in evaluating the New Agreements. Each Independent Trustee may have accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to the New Agreements. The Independent Trustees did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling. The Independent Trustees' considerations were instead based on a comprehensive consideration of all the information presented. The principal factors considered by the Board and its conclusions are described below.

As outlined in more detail below, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered all factors they believed relevant with respect to appointing Viking as investment adviser and approving the New Agreements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by Viking, including investment advisory and administrative services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by Viking under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that Viking would be a subsidiary of Corridor upon the completion of the Transaction. In this regard, the Board considered that Corridor was a newly formed company, and therefore took into account Corridor's financing prospects and viability, based on information provided by Integrity. Members of Integrity and Viking represented to the Board that Corridor would oversee the consolidation of the operations of Integrity Money Management into those of Viking following the Transaction to ensure a smooth transition and that the Transaction and the New Agreements were not expected to effect any material changes in the manner in which the Funds are managed.

In addition, the Board considered the continuity of investment and administrative personnel. With respect to investment personnel, the Board is familiar with the background, experience and track record of the Funds' investment personnel and these same persons were expected to serve the Funds in the same capacities following the Transaction, except as employees of Viking. More specifically, the Board was advised that the portfolio manager who was managing the Funds would continue to manage such Funds on behalf of Viking.

As discussed in further detail below, with limited exceptions, the Board noted that the administrative personnel then providing services to the Funds were expected to continue in the same capacity and provide the same level of service following the Transaction. Although the same investment personnel were expected to continue to manage the Funds under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that the level of services may be enhanced with the addition of Viking's additional management expertise and marketing resources.

The Board concluded that the approval of the New Agreements and the transition of the Funds' management from Integrity Money Management to Viking were not expected to interfere with the day-to-day management of the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the expected nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by Viking supported approval of the New Agreements.

Performance. The Board considered the performance history of the Funds, and in light of the continuity of investment personnel as employees of Viking, the Board recognized that the New Agreements were not expected to impact the performance of the Funds.

Compensation and Economies of Scale. The Board evaluated the management fees under the New Agreements and noted that the advisory fee rates would be the same as the advisory fee rates paid by the Funds under the then-existing investment advisory agreements. The Board also considered the Funds' expense ratios, including, in particular, the expense limitation provisions applicable to the Funds that were set forth in the then-existing investment advisory agreements and noted that, although such expense limitation provisions would not be included in the New Agreements, Viking would agree to waive fees or reimburse expenses to maintain each Fund's expense level at a level that is equal to or lower than the currently applicable percentages for an initial term until July 31, 2010. The Board considered whether there were any economies of scale and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. In this regard, the Board noted that none of the Funds has reached an asset level that would enable it to benefit substantially from economies of scale. However, the Board recognized that with the integration of the Integrity and Viking fund families, certain shared expenses may be spread over a larger asset base. The Board recognized that even if an alternative investment adviser could potentially result in lower fees, the benefits to shareholders of continuity in the operations and management of the Funds also needed to be accorded weight. The Board concluded that the fees to be paid to Viking under the New Agreements, taking into account relevant expense limitations, were fair and reasonable.

Profitability. In connection with its review of fees, the Board also considered the profitability of Viking for its advisory activities. In this regard, the Board reviewed information regarding the finances of Corridor and Viking and estimated revenues. Based on the information provided, the Board concluded that the level of profitability was reasonable in light of the services provided.

Ancillary Benefits. The Board considered whether there were any ancillary benefits Viking and its affiliates may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. In this regard, the Board considered that Viking does not currently engage in any soft dollar arrangements. Based on their review, the Independent Trustees concluded that any indirect benefits received by Viking and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable and within acceptable parameters.

Continuity of Service Providers. The Board noted that, in addition to acquiring Viking, Corridor would be acquiring IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor as part of the Transaction. Accordingly, IFS would continue to act as administrator, accounting service provider and transfer agent to the Funds and Integrity Funds Distributor would continue to act as distributor to the Funds. The Board also noted that Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. would continue to act as the Funds' custodian. The Board concluded that the continuation of the Funds' service provider contracts would help ensure continuity of Fund operations.

Based on their review of the New Agreements, the materials provided and the considerations described above, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that the adoption of the New Agreements would be in the best interests of the Funds and their respective shareholders and should be approved. In addition, the Board recommended approval of each New Agreement by the respective Fund's shareholders.

Potential Conflicts of Interest—Investment Adviser

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one fund or other account. More specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple funds are presented with the following potential conflicts:

 

 

 

 

The management of multiple funds may result in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each fund. Viking seeks to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of portfolio managers by having them focus on a particular investment discipline. Most other accounts managed by a portfolio manager are managed using the same investment models that are used in connection with the management of the Funds. The management of multiple funds and accounts also may give rise to potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees as the portfolio manager must allocate his time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts.

 

 

 

 

Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke comprise the initial Board of Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke serves as the president and chief executive officer of Corridor. In addition, Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke own membership interests of approximately 10% and 5%, respectively, in Corridor. They received their membership interests, without a cash investment, in exchange for their contributions to Corridor (including experience in the mutual fund industry and their personal guaranties of bank financing) and, in addition, with respect to Mr. Radke, in exchange for his interest in Viking. Other current employees of Corridor own, in the aggregate, approximately 23% of the total membership interests in Corridor, with each employee individually owning an interest of approximately 1%. They received their membership interests in exchange for their experience and role in the operations of Corridor, and without a cash investment.

 

 

 

 

With respect to securities transactions for the Funds, Viking determines which broker to use to execute each order, consistent with the duty to seek best execution of the transaction. The portfolio manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Funds. Securities selected for funds or accounts other than the Funds may outperform the securities selected for the Funds.

 

 

 

 

The appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where Viking has an incentive, such as a performance-based management fee, which relates to the management of one fund but not all funds with respect to which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities. The management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest; there is no assurance that the Funds' code of ethics will adequately address such conflicts. One of the portfolio manager's numerous responsibilities is to assist in the sale of Fund shares. The compensation of Monte Avery (the "Portfolio Manager" of the Funds), is based on salary paid every other week. He is not compensated for client retention. In addition, Corridor sponsors a 401(k) plan for all its employees. This plan is funded by employee elective deferrals.

 

 

 

 

Although the Portfolio Manager generally does not trade securities in his own personal account, each of the Funds has adopted a code of ethics that, among other things, permits personal trading by employees under conditions where it has been determined that such trades would not adversely impact client accounts. Nevertheless, the management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, and there is no assurance that these codes of ethics will adequately address such conflicts.

Viking and the Funds have adopted certain compliance procedures, which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION

The Fund is an investment portfolio of Integrity Managed Portfolios (the "Trust") and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust may offer multiple portfolios; currently six portfolios are offered. The Trust is an unincorporated business trust organized under Massachusetts law on August 10, 1990. The Fund had no operations from that date to November 17, 1993, other than matters relating to organization and registration. On November 17, 1993, the Fund commenced its Public Offering of capital shares.

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide its shareholders with as high a level of current income exempt from both federal and Nebraska state income tax as is consistent with preservation of capital. The Fund will seek to achieve this objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of Nebraska municipal securities.

Shares of the Fund are offered at net asset value plus a maximum sales charge of 4.25% of the offering price.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investment security valuation—Securities for which quotations are not readily available (which will constitute a majority of the securities held by the Fund) are valued using a matrix system at fair value as determined by Integrity Money Management. The matrix system has been developed based on procedures approved by the Board of Trustees and includes consideration of the following: yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality; type of issue, coupon, maturity, and rating; indications as to value from dealers; and general market conditions.

Because the market value of securities can only be established by agreement between parties in a sales transaction, and because of the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, the fair values as determined may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed. The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date.

The Fund concentrates its investments in a single state. This concentration may result in the Fund investing a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers.

When-issued securities—The Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The values of the securities purchased on a when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Contingent deferred sales charge—In the case of investments of $1 million or more, a 1.00% CDSC may be assessed on shares redeemed within 24 months of purchase (excluding shares purchased with reinvested dividends and/or distributions).

Federal and state income taxes—The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income and any net realized gain on investments to its shareholders; therefore, no provision for income taxes is required.

In June of 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 establishes the minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of tax-return positions in financial statements. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years for purposes of implementing this standard and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the financial statements. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, are classified in the financial statements as "Other expense".

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

The Fund has unexpired net capital loss carryforwards for tax purposes as of July 31, 2009 totaling $3,008,426, which may be used to offset future capital gains. The capital loss carryforward amounts will expire in each of the years ended July 31 as shown in the following table.

$

1,123,208

For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund made $131,770 in permanent reclassifications to reflect tax character. Reclassifications to paid-in capital relate primarily to expiring capital loss carryforwards.

Net capital losses incurred after October 31 and within the tax year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next taxable year. For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund did not defer to August 1, 2009, any post-October capital losses, post-October currency losses, or post-October passive foreign investment company losses.

Distributions to shareholders—Dividends from net investment income, declared daily and paid monthly, are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund at net asset value or paid in cash. Capital gains, when available, are distributed at least annually.

Premiums and discounts—Premiums and discounts on municipal securities are amortized for financial reporting purposes.

Other—Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from net investment income and realized gains determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses due to wash sales and futures transactions.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

Futures contracts—The Fund may purchase and sell financial futures contracts to hedge against changes in the values of tax-exempt municipal securities the Fund owns or expects to purchase.

A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell units of a particular index or a certain amount of U.S. Government or municipal securities at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with a broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" requirement of the futures exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund, dependent on the fluctuations in the value of the underlying index. Daily fluctuations in value are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. When entering into a closing transaction, the Fund will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contracts sold and the futures contracts to buy. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) related to open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for federal income tax purposes.

Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts. These risks may include changes in the value of the futures contracts that may not directly correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Use of estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 4: INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Integrity Money Management, the Fund's investment adviser; Integrity Funds Distributor, the Fund's underwriter; and Integrity Fund Services, the Fund's transfer, accounting, and administrative services agent; are subsidiaries of Integrity Mutual Funds, the Fund's sponsor.

The Fund has engaged Integrity Money Management to provide investment advisory and management services to the Fund. The Investment Advisory Agreement provides for fees to be computed at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Fund has recognized $43,338 of investment advisory fees after a partial waiver for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Money Management of $4,519 at July 31, 2009 for investment advisory fees. Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are also Officers and Directors of Integrity Money Management.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, Integrity Money Management has agreed to pay all the expenses of the Fund (excluding taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and acquired fund fees and expenses, if any) that exceed 1.07% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis up to the amount of the investment advisory and management fee. Integrity Money Management and Integrity Funds Distributor may also voluntarily waive fees or reimburse expenses not required under the advisory or other contracts from time to time. Accordingly, after fee waivers and expense reimbursements, the Fund's actual total annual operating expenses were 1.07% for the year ended July 31, 2009.

Principal underwriter and shareholder services

Integrity Funds Distributor serves as the principal underwriter for the Fund. The Fund has adopted a distribution plan for each class of shares as allowed by Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. Distribution plans permit the Fund to reimburse its principal underwriter for costs related to selling shares of the Fund and for various other services. These costs, which consist primarily of commissions and service fees to broker-dealers who sell shares of the Fund, are paid by shareholders through expenses called "Distribution Plan expenses." The Fund currently pays an annual distribution fee of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the class. Distribution Plan expenses are calculated daily and paid monthly. The Fund has recognized $68,318 of distribution fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Distributor of $6,016 at July 31, 2009 for distribution fees.

As transfer agent to the Fund, Integrity Fund Services provides shareholder services for a variable fee equal to 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $54,654 of transfer agency fees and expenses for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $4,813 at July 31, 2009 for transfer agency fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's accounting services agent for a monthly fee equal to the sum of a fixed fee of $2,000 and a variable fee equal to 0.05% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, together with reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional minimum fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $37,664 of accounting service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $3,203 at July 31, 2009 for accounting service fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's administrative services agent for a variable fee equal to 0.125% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $34,159 of administrative service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $3,008 at July 31, 2009 for administrative service fees.

At July 31, 2009, the aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same for financial reporting purposes at $28,816,872. The net unrealized appreciation of investments based on the cost was $162,545, which is comprised of $613,260 aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and $450,715 aggregate gross unrealized depreciation. Differences between financial reporting-basis and tax-basis are due to differing treatment for market discount, capital loss deferral, wash sales, and futures transactions.

NOTE 7: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 31, 2009, Corridor Investors, LLC completed a transaction with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. and Integrity Money Management, Inc. With the completion of the transaction, Corridor Investors, LLC and its subsidiaries (Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor, Inc. and Integrity Fund Services, Inc.) began providing investment advisory, distribution and other services to Integrity Managed Portfolios effective August 1, 2009.

Subsequent events noted above were evaluated through September 11, 2009, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of the Nebraska Municipal Fund

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the Nebraska Municipal Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Integrity Managed Portfolios), including the schedule of investments as of July 31, 2009, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

Dear Shareholder:

Enclosed is the report of the operations for the New Hampshire Municipal Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund's portfolio and related financial statements are presented within for your review.

Needless to say, the 12-month period ended July 31, 2009 was an extraordinary and stressful time for investors and those of us who have worked in the financial industry for many years. The U.S. economy is in the midst of its second recession this decade. The depth and breadth of this recession is quite different from the 2001 recession in that the negative effects are being felt by nearly every section of the country. Housing values have plummeted in various parts of the country along with two of the three major U.S. auto companies filing for bankruptcy. Those events along with steep declines in manufacturing have led unemployment to levels approaching ten percent.

Seeking to stimulate the economy and loosen the flow of credit, the federal government passed a $700 billion financial rescue package, followed by a $787 billion economic stimulus package. The Federal Reserve was also quite aggressive in its attempts to boost growth by cutting the Fed Funds rate to 0 - 0.25%. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2009 the Fed announced plans to buy $300 billion in Treasury securities in an effort to improve credit markets along with $750 billion of agency mortgage backed securities to bolster the housing markets.

The previous year was an absolutely brutal year for municipal bond investors and the mutual funds that invest in them were no exception as bond prices tumbled and yields rose with concerns that the economic slowdown would affect states credit risks. Not only are states susceptible to a decline in income tax revenues, but falling home prices, rising unemployment and reduced consumer spending are beginning to take their toll on other types of tax revenue.

While all of the above events could make an investor become more cautious, we believe the municipal market could be one of the best places to find bargains in the fixed income market in 2009. During the period, the federal government and its agencies continued to take extraordinary actions to stabilize and restore confidence in the municipal markets. One of these new programs under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is the Build America Bonds program which provides funding for state and local governments to pursue necessary capital projects such as schools, roads, public buildings, energy projects, housing and public utilities. The program is designed to provide a federal subsidy for a large portion of the borrowing costs of state and local governments to encourage investments in capital projects.

As a result of these actions and the historic tax equivalent yields municipals offered, tax-free bonds produced strong returns for the latter part of the period. New Hampshire Municipal Fund began the year at $10.32 and ended the year at $10.50 for a total return of 4.64%*. This compares to the Barclays Capital Municipal Index's return of 5.11%. The total annual fund operating expense ratio (before expense waivers and reimbursements and including acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 3.21%. The net annual fund operating expense ratio (after expense waivers and reimbursements and excluding acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.07%.

During the reporting period, we had the opportunity to purchase bonds at higher yields than were available in many years such as: New Hampshire Healthcare (Covenant Health) 5.00% coupon, due 2024; New Hampshire Municipal Bond Bank, 4.00% coupon, due 2025; New Hampshire Turnpike, 5.125% coupon, due 2019; and Manchester Water Works, 5.00% coupon, due 2034.

At year end, we continue to search the primary and secondary markets for higher coupon securities as we feel current yields represent an attractive, long-term opportunity to our buy and hold approach as well as providing the most relative value in the current market. This approach throughout different interest rate environments allows us to have a portfolio of broad diversification that helps mitigate interest rate risk.

Income exempt from federal income taxes and New Hampshire state interest and dividend taxes with preservation of capital remain the primary objectives of the Fund.

If you would like more frequent updates, please visit the Fund's website at www.integrityviking.com for daily prices along with pertinent Fund information.

Sincerely,

Monte Avery
Senior Portfolio Manager

The views expressed are those of Monte Avery, Senior Portfolio Manager with Integrity Viking Funds. The views are subject to change at any time in response to changing circumstances in the market and are not intended to predict or guarantee the future performance of any individual security, market sector, the markets generally, or any of the funds in the Integrity Viking family of funds.

*Performance does not include applicable front-end or contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSCs"), which would have reduced the performance.

Performance data quoted above is historical. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. The principal value and investment return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. You can obtain performance data current to the most recent month end (available within seven business days of the most recent month end) by calling 800-276-1262.

You should consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses carefully before investing. For this and other important information, please obtain a Fund prospectus at no cost from your financial adviser and read it carefully before investing.

Bond prices and therefore the value of bond funds decline as interest rates rise. Because the Fund invests in securities of a single state, the Fund is more susceptible to factors adversely impacting the respective state securities more so than a municipal bond fund that does not concentrate its securities in a single state.


PROXY VOTING OF FUND PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

A description of the policies and procedures that the Fund uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to securities held in the Fund's portfolio is available, without charge and upon request, by calling 800-276-1262.

The information is also available from the Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval ("EDGAR") database on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") at www.sec.gov.

QUARTERLY PORTFOLIO SCHEDULE

Within 60 days of the end of its second and fourth fiscal quarters, the Fund provides a complete schedule of portfolio holdings in its semi-annual and annual reports on the Form N-CSR(S). These reports are filed electronically with the SEC and are delivered to the shareholders of the Fund. The Fund also files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (unaudited)

 

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads), redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 30, 2009 to July 31, 2009.

Actual expenses: The section in the table under the heading "Actual" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns together with the amount you invested to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an account value of $8,600 divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class in the column entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes: The section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, had these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The graph does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions and redemptions of Fund shares.

The graph comparing the Fund's performance to a benchmark index provides you with a general sense of how the Fund performed. To put this information in context, it may be helpful to understand the special differences between the two. The Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index is a national index representative of the national municipal bond market, whereas the Fund concentrates its investments in New Hampshire municipal bonds. The Fund's total return for the periods shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. The Fund's total return for the period shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. A securities index measures the performance of a theoretical portfolio. Unlike a fund, the index is unmanaged; there are no expenses that affect the results. In addition, few investors could purchase all of the securities necessary to match the index. If they could, transaction costs and other expenses would be incurred. All Fund and benchmark returns include reinvested dividends.

BOARD APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

 

Transaction With Corridor Investors, LLC

Corridor Investors, LLC ("Corridor"), located at 1 Main Street North, Minot, North Dakota 58703, is a North Dakota limited liability company that was organized in January 2009 by Robert E. Walstad, the chairman of the Board of Trustees of Integrity Managed Portfolios, and Shannon D. Radke, president of Viking Fund Management, LLC ("Viking") and Viking Mutual Funds. Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke are Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Corridor. On March 6, 2009, Viking and Corridor entered into an agreement (the "Corridor Agreement") with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. ("Integrity") and Integrity Money Management, among others, to complete certain transactions (collectively, the "Transaction"), certain of which are described below. The Transaction was completed on July 31, 2009, and Viking assumed responsibility for the daily management of the Funds assets.

Prior to the closing of the Transaction, Integrity Money Management served as investment adviser to the Funds. Pursuant to the Corridor Agreement, Integrity (as seller) generally sold its mutual fund services business to Corridor and Viking (collectively, as buyer). More specifically, Corridor and Viking acquired, among other things, certain assets of Integrity Money Management and Viking became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corridor. Integrity Funds Distributor (the Funds' principal underwriter) and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. (the Funds' transfer agent and accounting and administrative services provider) also became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Corridor as a result of the Transaction.

>To complete the Transaction, numerous conditions needed to be met, including shareholder approval of advisory contracts with Viking (the "New Agreements"). Shareholders approved, among other things, the New Agreements at meetings held on June 29, 2009 (and, for certain Funds, at meetings adjourned to July 24, 2009) (collectively, the "Shareholder Meetings").

With the completion of the Transaction, Corridor now provides investment advisory, distribution and other services to the Funds, as well as to the four series of Viking Mutual Funds, the six series of The Integrity Funds, and Integrity Fund of Funds, Inc., primarily through its subsidiaries, including Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. ("Integrity Fund Services" or "IFS").

Investment Advisory Agreements with Viking

The following paragraphs summarize the material information and factors considered by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, at meetings held on March 6, 2009 and on March 11, 2009 (collectively, the "March Meeting"), as well as their conclusions relative to such factors in considering the approval of the New Agreements.

During last year, the Board received and considered a variety of materials related to the proposed Transaction (including relating to Corridor and Viking), the rationale therefor, alternatives to the Transaction, and the potential impact to the Funds. In light of the Corridor Agreement, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered the approval of the Agreements at the March meeting. In evaluating the New Agreements, the Board reviewed information furnished by Integrity, Integrity Money Management and Viking, including information regarding: (1) the services to be provided to the Funds, including the nature, extent and quality of such services; (2) the performance of the Funds; (3) the compensation to be paid to Viking including the cost of advisory services to be provided and profits to be realized by Viking and its affiliates, including Corridor, from the relationship with the Funds, taking into account the anticipated expense limitation arrangements; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as a Fund grows and whether the advisory fee reflects these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund's investors; (5) other benefits to be received by Viking from its relationship with the Funds; and (6) the continuity of services to be provided to the Funds by other service providers, including IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor. In considering the New Agreements, the Independent Trustees also relied upon their knowledge of the Transaction, Corridor, Viking and the Funds resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year and their own business judgment in determining the factors to be considered in evaluating the New Agreements. Each Independent Trustee may have accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to the New Agreements. The Independent Trustees did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling. The Independent Trustees' considerations were instead based on a comprehensive consideration of all the information presented. The principal factors considered by the Board and its conclusions are described below.

As outlined in more detail below, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered all factors they believed relevant with respect to appointing Viking as investment adviser and approving the New Agreements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by Viking, including investment advisory and administrative services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by Viking under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that Viking would be a subsidiary of Corridor upon the completion of the Transaction. In this regard, the Board considered that Corridor was a newly formed company, and therefore took into account Corridor's financing prospects and viability, based on information provided by Integrity. Members of Integrity and Viking represented to the Board that Corridor would oversee the consolidation of the operations of Integrity Money Management into those of Viking following the Transaction to ensure a smooth transition and that the Transaction and the New Agreements were not expected to effect any material changes in the manner in which the Funds are managed.

In addition, the Board considered the continuity of investment and administrative personnel. With respect to investment personnel, the Board is familiar with the background, experience and track record of the Funds' investment personnel and these same persons were expected to serve the Funds in the same capacities following the Transaction, except as employees of Viking. More specifically, the Board was advised that the portfolio manager who was managing the Funds would continue to manage such Funds on behalf of Viking.

As discussed in further detail below, with limited exceptions, the Board noted that the administrative personnel then providing services to the Funds were expected to continue in the same capacity and provide the same level of service following the Transaction. Although the same investment personnel were expected to continue to manage the Funds under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that the level of services may be enhanced with the addition of Viking's additional management expertise and marketing resources.

The Board concluded that the approval of the New Agreements and the transition of the Funds' management from Integrity Money Management to Viking were not expected to interfere with the day-to-day management of the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the expected nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by Viking supported approval of the New Agreements.

Performance. The Board considered the performance history of the Funds, and in light of the continuity of investment personnel as employees of Viking, the Board recognized that the New Agreements were not expected to impact the performance of the Funds.

Compensation and Economies of Scale. The Board evaluated the management fees under the New Agreements and noted that the advisory fee rates would be the same as the advisory fee rates paid by the Funds under the then-existing investment advisory agreements. The Board also considered the Funds' expense ratios, including, in particular, the expense limitation provisions applicable to the Funds that were set forth in the then-existing investment advisory agreements and noted that, although such expense limitation provisions would not be included in the New Agreements, Viking would agree to waive fees or reimburse expenses to maintain each Fund's expense level at a level that is equal to or lower than the currently applicable percentages for an initial term until July 31, 2010. The Board considered whether there were any economies of scale and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. In this regard, the Board noted that none of the Funds has reached an asset level that would enable it to benefit substantially from economies of scale. However, the Board recognized that with the integration of the Integrity and Viking fund families, certain shared expenses may be spread over a larger asset base. The Board recognized that even if an alternative investment adviser could potentially result in lower fees, the benefits to shareholders of continuity in the operations and management of the Funds also needed to be accorded weight. The Board concluded that the fees to be paid to Viking under the New Agreements, taking into account relevant expense limitations, were fair and reasonable.

Profitability. In connection with its review of fees, the Board also considered the profitability of Viking for its advisory activities. In this regard, the Board reviewed information regarding the finances of Corridor and Viking and estimated revenues. Based on the information provided, the Board concluded that the level of profitability was reasonable in light of the services provided.

Ancillary Benefits. The Board considered whether there were any ancillary benefits Viking and its affiliates may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. In this regard, the Board considered that Viking does not currently engage in any soft dollar arrangements. Based on their review, the Independent Trustees concluded that any indirect benefits received by Viking and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable and within acceptable parameters.

Continuity of Service Providers. The Board noted that, in addition to acquiring Viking, Corridor would be acquiring IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor as part of the Transaction. Accordingly, IFS would continue to act as administrator, accounting service provider and transfer agent to the Funds and Integrity Funds Distributor would continue to act as distributor to the Funds. The Board also noted that Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. would continue to act as the Funds' custodian. The Board concluded that the continuation of the Funds' service provider contracts would help ensure continuity of Fund operations.

Based on their review of the New Agreements, the materials provided and the considerations described above, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that the adoption of the New Agreements would be in the best interests of the Funds and their respective shareholders and should be approved. In addition, the Board recommended approval of each New Agreement by the respective Fund's shareholders.

Potential Conflicts of Interest—Investment Adviser

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one fund or other account. More specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple funds are presented with the following potential conflicts:

 

 

 

 

The management of multiple funds may result in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each fund. Viking seeks to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of portfolio managers by having them focus on a particular investment discipline. Most other accounts managed by a portfolio manager are managed using the same investment models that are used in connection with the management of the Funds. The management of multiple funds and accounts also may give rise to potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees as the portfolio manager must allocate his time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts.

 

 

 

 

Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke comprise the initial Board of Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke serves as the president and chief executive officer of Corridor. In addition, Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke own membership interests of approximately 10% and 5%, respectively, in Corridor. They received their membership interests, without a cash investment, in exchange for their contributions to Corridor (including experience in the mutual fund industry and their personal guaranties of bank financing) and, in addition, with respect to Mr. Radke, in exchange for his interest in Viking. Other current employees of Corridor own, in the aggregate, approximately 23% of the total membership interests in Corridor, with each employee individually owning an interest of approximately 1%. They received their membership interests in exchange for their experience and role in the operations of Corridor, and without a cash investment.

 

 

 

 

With respect to securities transactions for the Funds, Viking determines which broker to use to execute each order, consistent with the duty to seek best execution of the transaction. The portfolio manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Funds. Securities selected for funds or accounts other than the Funds may outperform the securities selected for the Funds.

 

 

 

 

The appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where Viking has an incentive, such as a performance-based management fee, which relates to the management of one fund but not all funds with respect to which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities. The management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest; there is no assurance that the Funds' code of ethics will adequately address such conflicts. One of the portfolio manager's numerous responsibilities is to assist in the sale of Fund shares. The compensation of Monte Avery (the "Portfolio Manager" of the Funds), is based on salary paid every other week. He is not compensated for client retention. In addition, Corridor sponsors a 401(k) plan for all its employees. This plan is funded by employee elective deferrals.

 

 

 

 

Although the Portfolio Manager generally does not trade securities in his own personal account, each of the Funds has adopted a code of ethics that, among other things, permits personal trading by employees under conditions where it has been determined that such trades would not adversely impact client accounts. Nevertheless, the management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, and there is no assurance that these codes of ethics will adequately address such conflicts.

Viking and the Funds have adopted certain compliance procedures, which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION

The Fund is an investment portfolio of Integrity Managed Portfolios (the "Trust") and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust may offer multiple portfolios; currently six portfolios are offered. The Trust is an unincorporated business trust organized under Massachusetts law on August 10, 1990.

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide its shareholders with as high a level of current income exempt from both federal income tax and New Hampshire state interest and dividend tax as is consistent with preservation of capital. The Fund will seek to achieve this objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of New Hampshire municipal securities.

On December 19, 2003, the Fund became a series of the Trust. Prior to this date, the Fund was part of the Forum Funds and was named the New Hampshire TaxSaver Bond Fund. The New Hampshire TaxSaver Bond Fund commenced operations on December 31, 1992. The Forum Funds is a Delaware business trust that is registered as an open-end management investment company under the 1940 Act.

Shares of the Fund are offered at net asset value plus a maximum sales charge of 4.25% of the offering price.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investment security valuation—Securities for which quotations are not readily available (which will constitute a majority of the securities held by the Fund) are valued using a matrix system at fair value as determined by Integrity Money Management. The matrix system has been developed based on procedures approved by the Board of Trustees and includes consideration of the following: yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality; type of issue, coupon, maturity, and rating; indications as to value from dealers; and general market conditions.

Because the market value of securities can only be established by agreement between parties in a sales transaction, and because of the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, the fair values as determined may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed. The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date.

The Fund concentrates its investments in a single state. This concentration may result in the Fund investing a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers.

When-issued securities—The Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The values of the securities purchased on a when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Contingent deferred sales charge—In the case of investments of $1 million or more, a 1.00% CDSC may be assessed on shares redeemed within 24 months of purchase (excluding shares purchased with reinvested dividends and/or distributions).

Federal and state income taxes—The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income and any net realized gain on investments to its shareholders; therefore, no provision for income taxes is required.

In June of 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 establishes the minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of tax-return positions in financial statements. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years for purposes of implementing this standard and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the financial statements. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, are classified in the financial statements as "Other expense".

The Fund has unexpired net capital loss carryforwards for tax purposes as of July 31, 2009 totaling $148,062, which may be used to offset future capital gains. The capital loss carryforward amounts will expire in each of the years ended July 31 as shown in the following table.

For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund did not make any permanent reclassifications to reflect tax character

Net capital losses incurred after October 31 and within the tax year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next taxable year. For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund did not defer to August 1, 2009, any post-October capital losses, post-October currency losses, or post-October passive foreign investment company losses.

Distributions to shareholders—Dividends from net investment income, declared daily and paid monthly, are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund at net asset value or paid in cash. Capital gains, when available, are distributed at least annually.

Premiums and discounts—Premiums and discounts on municipal securities are amortized for financial reporting purposes.

Other—Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from net investment income and realized gains determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses due to wash sales and futures transactions.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

Futures contracts—The Fund may purchase and sell financial futures contracts to hedge against changes in the values of tax-exempt municipal securities the Fund owns or expects to purchase.

A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell units of a particular index or a certain amount of U.S. Government or municipal securities at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with a broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" requirement of the futures exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund, dependent on the fluctuations in the value of the underlying index. Daily fluctuations in value are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. When entering into a closing transaction, the Fund will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contracts sold and the futures contracts to buy. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) related to open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for federal income tax purposes.

Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts. These risks may include changes in the value of the futures contracts that may not directly correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Use of estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3: CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

As of July 31, 2009, there were unlimited shares of no par authorized; 363,590 and 356,507 shares were outstanding at July 31, 2009 and July 31, 2008, respectively.

NOTE 4: INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Integrity Money Management, the Fund's investment adviser; Integrity Funds Distributor, the Fund's underwriter; and Integrity Fund Services, the Fund's transfer, accounting, and administrative services agent; are subsidiaries of Integrity Mutual Funds, the Fund's sponsor.

The Fund has engaged Integrity Money Management to provide investment advisory and management services to the Fund. The Investment Advisory Agreement provides for fees to be computed at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Fund has recognized $0 of investment advisory fees after a partial waiver for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Money Management of $0 at July 31, 2009 for investment advisory fees. Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are also officers and Directors of Integrity Money Management.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, Integrity Money Management has agreed to pay all the expenses of the Fund (excluding taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and acquired fund fees and expenses, if any) that exceed 1.07% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis up to the amount of the investment advisory and management fee. Integrity Money Management and Integrity Funds Distributor may also voluntarily waive fees or reimburse expenses not required under the advisory or other contracts from time to time. Accordingly, after fee waivers and expense reimbursements, the Fund's actual total annual operating expenses were 1.07% for the year ended July 31, 2009.

Principal underwriter and shareholder services

Integrity Funds Distributor serves as the principal underwriter for the Fund. The Fund has adopted a distribution plan for each class of shares as allowed by Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. Distribution plans permit the Fund to reimburse its principal underwriter for costs related to selling shares of the Fund and for various other services. These costs, which consist primarily of commissions and service fees to broker-dealers who sell shares of the Fund, are paid by shareholders through expenses called "Distribution Plan expenses." The Fund currently pays an annual distribution fee of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the class. Distribution Plan expenses are calculated daily and paid monthly. The Fund has recognized $9,322 of distribution fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Distributor of $794 at July 31, 2009 for distribution fees.

As transfer agent to the Fund, Integrity Fund Services provides shareholder services for a variable fee equal to 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $24,001 of transfer agency fees and expenses for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $2,000 at July 31, 2009 for transfer agency fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's accounting services agent for a monthly fee equal to the sum of a fixed fee of $2,000 and a variable fee equal to 0.05% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, together with reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional minimum fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $25,864 of accounting service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $2,159 at July 31, 2009 for accounting service fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's administrative services agent for a variable fee equal to 0.125% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $24,001 of administrative service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $2,000 at July 31, 2009 for administrative service fees.

NOTE 5: INVESTMENT SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

The cost of purchases and proceeds from the sales of investment securities (excluding short-term securities) aggregated $820,940 and $545,500, respectively, for the year ended July 31, 2009.

NOTE 6: INVESTMENT IN SECURITIES

At July 31, 2009, the aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same for financial reporting purposes at $3,718,006. The net unrealized appreciation of investments based on the cost was $79,917, which is comprised of $83,989 aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and $4,072 aggregate gross unrealized depreciation. Differences between financial reporting-basis and tax-basis are due to differing treatment for market discount, capital loss deferral, wash sales, and futures transactions.

NOTE 7: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 31, 2009, Corridor Investors, LLC completed a transaction with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. and Integrity Money Management, Inc. With the completion of the transaction, Corridor Investors, LLC and its subsidiaries (Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor, Inc. and Integrity Fund Services, Inc.) began providing investment advisory, distribution and other services to Integrity Managed Portfolios effective August 1, 2009.

Subsequent events noted above were evaluated through September 11, 2009, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of the New Hampshire Municipal Fund

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the New Hampshire Municipal Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Integrity Managed Portfolios), including the schedule of investments as of July 31, 2009, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the New Hampshire Municipal Fund of the Integrity Managed Portfolios as of July 31, 2009, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Dear Shareholder:

Enclosed is the report of the operations for the Oklahoma Municipal Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund's portfolio and related financial statements are presented within for your review.

Needless to say, the 12-month period ended July 31, 2009 was an extraordinary and stressful time for investors and those of us who have worked in the financial industry for many years. The U.S. economy is in the midst of its second recession this decade. The depth and breadth of this recession is quite different from the 2001 recession in that the negative effects are being felt by nearly every section of the country. Housing values have plummeted in various parts of the country along with two of the three major U.S. auto companies filing for bankruptcy. Those events along with steep declines in manufacturing have led unemployment to levels approaching ten percent.

Seeking to stimulate the economy and loosen the flow of credit, the federal government passed a $700 billion financial rescue package, followed by a $787 billion economic stimulus package. The Federal Reserve was also quite aggressive in its attempts to boost growth by cutting the Fed Funds rate to 0 - 0.25%. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2009 the Fed announced plans to buy $300 billion in Treasury securities in an effort to improve credit markets along with $750 billion of agency mortgage backed securities to bolster the housing markets.

The previous year was an absolutely brutal year for municipal bond investors and the mutual funds that invest in them were no exception as bond prices tumbled and yields rose with concerns that the economic slowdown would affect states credit risks. Not only are states susceptible to a decline in income tax revenues, but falling home prices, rising unemployment and reduced consumer spending are beginning to take their toll on other types of tax revenue.

While all of the above events could make an investor become more cautious, we believe the municipal market could be one of the best places to find bargains in the fixed income market in 2009. During the period, the federal government and its agencies continued to take extraordinary actions to stabilize and restore confidence in the municipal markets. One of these new programs under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is the Build America Bonds program which provides funding for state and local governments to pursue necessary capital projects such as schools, roads, public buildings, energy projects, housing and public utilities. The program is designed to provide a federal subsidy for a large portion of the borrowing costs of state and local governments to encourage investments in capital projects.

As a result of these actions and the historic tax equivalent yields municipals offered, tax-free bonds produced strong returns for the latter part of the period. Oklahoma Municipal Fund began the year at $10.75 and ended the year at $10.78 for a total return of 4.28%. This compares to the Barclays Capital Municipal Index's return of 5.11 %. The total annual fund operating expense ratio (before expense waivers and reimbursements and including acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.36%. The net annual fund operating expense ratio (after expense waivers and reimbursements and excluding acquired fund fees and expenses) as of the most recent fiscal year-end was 1.07%.

During the reporting period, we had the opportunity to purchase bonds at higher yields than were available in many years such as: Oklahoma State University Revenue, 5.00% coupon, due 2034 and Oklahoma University (Science Center) 5.00% coupon, due 2036.

At year end, we continue to search the primary and secondary markets for higher coupon securities as we feel current yields represent an attractive, long-term opportunity to our buy and hold approach as well as providing the most relative value in the current market. This approach throughout different interest rate environments allows us to have a portfolio of broad diversification that helps mitigate interest rate risk.

Income exempt from federal and Oklahoma state income taxes with preservation of capital remain the primary objectives of the Fund.

*Performance does not include applicable front-end or contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSCs"), which would have reduced the performance.

Performance data quoted above is historical. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Bond prices and therefore the value of bond funds decline as interest rates rise. Because the Fund invests in securities of a single state, the Fund is more susceptible to factors adversely impacting the respective state securities more so than a municipal bond fund that does not concentrate its securities in a single state.

DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (unaudited)

 

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads), redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 30, 2009 to July 31, 2009.

Actual expenses: The section in the table under the heading "Actual" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns together with the amount you invested to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an account value of $8,600 divided by $1,000 equals 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the appropriate column for your share class in the column entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes: The section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the section in the table under the heading "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)" is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, had these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The graph does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions and redemptions of Fund shares.

The graph comparing the Fund's performance to a benchmark index provides you with a general sense of how the Fund performed. To put this information in context, it may be helpful to understand the special differences between the two. The Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index is a national index representative of the national municipal bond market, whereas the Fund concentrates its investments in Oklahoma municipal bonds. The Fund's total return for the periods shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. The Fund's total return for the period shown appears with and without sales charges and includes Fund expenses and management fees. A securities index measures the performance of a theoretical portfolio. Unlike a fund, the index is unmanaged; there are no expenses that affect the results. In addition, few investors could purchase all of the securities necessary to match the index. If they could, transaction costs and other expenses would be incurred. All Fund and benchmark returns include reinvested dividends.

BOARD APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

 

Transaction With Corridor Investors, LLC

Corridor Investors, LLC ("Corridor"), located at 1 Main Street North, Minot, North Dakota 58703, is a North Dakota limited liability company that was organized in January 2009 by Robert E. Walstad, the chairman of the Board of Trustees of Integrity Managed Portfolios, and Shannon D. Radke, president of Viking Fund Management, LLC ("Viking") and Viking Mutual Funds. Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke are Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Corridor. On March 6, 2009, Viking and Corridor entered into an agreement (the "Corridor Agreement") with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. ("Integrity") and Integrity Money Management, among others, to complete certain transactions (collectively, the "Transaction"), certain of which are described below. The Transaction was completed on July 31, 2009, and Viking assumed responsibility for the daily management of the Funds assets.

Prior to the closing of the Transaction, Integrity Money Management served as investment adviser to the Funds. Pursuant to the Corridor Agreement, Integrity (as seller) generally sold its mutual fund services business to Corridor and Viking (collectively, as buyer). More specifically, Corridor and Viking acquired, among other things, certain assets of Integrity Money Management and Viking became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Corridor. Integrity Funds Distributor (the Funds' principal underwriter) and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. (the Funds' transfer agent and accounting and administrative services provider) also became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Corridor as a result of the Transaction.

To complete the Transaction, numerous conditions needed to be met, including shareholder approval of advisory contracts with Viking (the "New Agreements"). Shareholders approved, among other things, the New Agreements at meetings held on June 29, 2009 (and, for certain Funds, at meetings adjourned to July 24, 2009) (collectively, the "Shareholder Meetings").

With the completion of the Transaction, Corridor now provides investment advisory, distribution and other services to the Funds, as well as to the four series of Viking Mutual Funds, the six series of The Integrity Funds, and Integrity Fund of Funds, Inc., primarily through its subsidiaries, including Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor and Integrity Fund Services, Inc. ("Integrity Fund Services" or "IFS").

Investment Advisory Agreements with Viking

The following paragraphs summarize the material information and factors considered by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, at meetings held on March 6, 2009 and on March 11, 2009 (collectively, the "March Meeting"), as well as their conclusions relative to such factors in considering the approval of the New Agreements.

During last year, the Board received and considered a variety of materials related to the proposed Transaction (including relating to Corridor and Viking), the rationale therefor, alternatives to the Transaction, and the potential impact to the Funds. In light of the Corridor Agreement, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered the approval of the Agreements at the March meeting. In evaluating the New Agreements, the Board reviewed information furnished by Integrity, Integrity Money Management and Viking, including information regarding: (1) the services to be provided to the Funds, including the nature, extent and quality of such services; (2) the performance of the Funds; (3) the compensation to be paid to Viking including the cost of advisory services to be provided and profits to be realized by Viking and its affiliates, including Corridor, from the relationship with the Funds, taking into account the anticipated expense limitation arrangements; (4) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as a Fund grows and whether the advisory fee reflects these economies of scale for the benefit of the Fund's investors; (5) other benefits to be received by Viking from its relationship with the Funds; and (6) the continuity of services to be provided to the Funds by other service providers, including IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor. In considering the New Agreements, the Independent Trustees also relied upon their knowledge of the Transaction, Corridor, Viking and the Funds resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year and their own business judgment in determining the factors to be considered in evaluating the New Agreements. Each Independent Trustee may have accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching his conclusions with respect to the New Agreements. The Independent Trustees did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling. The Independent Trustees' considerations were instead based on a comprehensive consideration of all the information presented. The principal factors considered by the Board and its conclusions are described below.

As outlined in more detail below, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, considered all factors they believed relevant with respect to appointing Viking as investment adviser and approving the New Agreements.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by Viking, including investment advisory and administrative services. In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided to the Funds by Viking under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that Viking would be a subsidiary of Corridor upon the completion of the Transaction. In this regard, the Board considered that Corridor was a newly formed company, and therefore took into account Corridor's financing prospects and viability, based on information provided by Integrity. Members of Integrity and Viking represented to the Board that Corridor would oversee the consolidation of the operations of Integrity Money Management into those of Viking following the Transaction to ensure a smooth transition and that the Transaction and the New Agreements were not expected to effect any material changes in the manner in which the Funds are managed.

In addition, the Board considered the continuity of investment and administrative personnel. With respect to investment personnel, the Board is familiar with the background, experience and track record of the Funds' investment personnel and these same persons were expected to serve the Funds in the same capacities following the Transaction, except as employees of Viking. More specifically, the Board was advised that the portfolio manager who was managing the Funds would continue to manage such Funds on behalf of Viking.

As discussed in further detail below, with limited exceptions, the Board noted that the administrative personnel then providing services to the Funds were expected to continue in the same capacity and provide the same level of service following the Transaction. Although the same investment personnel were expected to continue to manage the Funds under the New Agreements, the Board recognized that the level of services may be enhanced with the addition of Viking's additional management expertise and marketing resources.

The Board concluded that the approval of the New Agreements and the transition of the Funds' management from Integrity Money Management to Viking were not expected to interfere with the day-to-day management of the Funds. Based on its review, the Board concluded that the expected nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by Viking supported approval of the New Agreements.

Performance. The Board considered the performance history of the Funds, and in light of the continuity of investment personnel as employees of Viking, the Board recognized that the New Agreements were not expected to impact the performance of the Funds.

Compensation and Economies of Scale. The Board evaluated the management fees under the New Agreements and noted that the advisory fee rates would be the same as the advisory fee rates paid by the Funds under the then-existing investment advisory agreements. The Board also considered the Funds' expense ratios, including, in particular, the expense limitation provisions applicable to the Funds that were set forth in the then-existing investment advisory agreements and noted that, although such expense limitation provisions would not be included in the New Agreements, Viking would agree to waive fees or reimburse expenses to maintain each Fund's expense level at a level that is equal to or lower than the currently applicable percentages for an initial term until July 31, 2010. The Board considered whether there were any economies of scale and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. In this regard, the Board noted that none of the Funds has reached an asset level that would enable it to benefit substantially from economies of scale. However, the Board recognized that with the integration of the Integrity and Viking fund families, certain shared expenses may be spread over a larger asset base. The Board recognized that even if an alternative investment adviser could potentially result in lower fees, the benefits to shareholders of continuity in the operations and management of the Funds also needed to be accorded weight. The Board concluded that the fees to be paid to Viking under the New Agreements, taking into account relevant expense limitations, were fair and reasonable.

Profitability. In connection with its review of fees, the Board also considered the profitability of Viking for its advisory activities. In this regard, the Board reviewed information regarding the finances of Corridor and Viking and estimated revenues. Based on the information provided, the Board concluded that the level of profitability was reasonable in light of the services provided.

Ancillary Benefits. The Board considered whether there were any ancillary benefits Viking and its affiliates may receive as a result of its relationship with the Funds. In this regard, the Board considered that Viking does not currently engage in any soft dollar arrangements. Based on their review, the Independent Trustees concluded that any indirect benefits received by Viking and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Funds were reasonable and within acceptable parameters.

Continuity of Service Providers. The Board noted that, in addition to acquiring Viking, Corridor would be acquiring IFS and Integrity Funds Distributor as part of the Transaction. Accordingly, IFS would continue to act as administrator, accounting service provider and transfer agent to the Funds and Integrity Funds Distributor would continue to act as distributor to the Funds. The Board also noted that Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. would continue to act as the Funds' custodian. The Board concluded that the continuation of the Funds' service provider contracts would help ensure continuity of Fund operations.

Based on their review of the New Agreements, the materials provided and the considerations described above, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, determined that the adoption of the New Agreements would be in the best interests of the Funds and their respective shareholders and should be approved. In addition, the Board recommended approval of each New Agreement by the respective Fund's shareholders.

Potential Conflicts of Interest—Investment Adviser

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one fund or other account. More specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple funds are presented with the following potential conflicts:

 

 

 

 

The management of multiple funds may result in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each fund. Viking seeks to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of portfolio managers by having them focus on a particular investment discipline. Most other accounts managed by a portfolio manager are managed using the same investment models that are used in connection with the management of the Funds. The management of multiple funds and accounts also may give rise to potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees as the portfolio manager must allocate his time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts.

 

 

 

 

Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke comprise the initial Board of Governors of Corridor, and Mr. Radke serves as the president and chief executive officer of Corridor. In addition, Mr. Walstad and Mr. Radke own membership interests of approximately 10% and 5%, respectively, in Corridor. They received their membership interests, without a cash investment, in exchange for their contributions to Corridor (including experience in the mutual fund industry and their personal guaranties of bank financing) and, in addition, with respect to Mr. Radke, in exchange for his interest in Viking. Other current employees of Corridor own, in the aggregate, approximately 23% of the total membership interests in Corridor, with each employee individually owning an interest of approximately 1%. They received their membership interests in exchange for their experience and role in the operations of Corridor, and without a cash investment.

 

 

 

 

With respect to securities transactions for the Funds, Viking determines which broker to use to execute each order, consistent with the duty to seek best execution of the transaction. The portfolio manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Funds. Securities selected for funds or accounts other than the Funds may outperform the securities selected for the Funds.

 

 

 

 

The appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where Viking has an incentive, such as a performance-based management fee, which relates to the management of one fund but not all funds with respect to which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities. The management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest; there is no assurance that the Funds' code of ethics will adequately address such conflicts. One of the portfolio manager's numerous responsibilities is to assist in the sale of Fund shares. The compensation of Monte Avery (the "Portfolio Manager" of the Funds), is based on salary paid every other week. He is not compensated for client retention. In addition, Corridor sponsors a 401(k) plan for all its employees. This plan is funded by employee elective deferrals.

 

 

 

 

Although the Portfolio Manager generally does not trade securities in his own personal account, each of the Funds has adopted a code of ethics that, among other things, permits personal trading by employees under conditions where it has been determined that such trades would not adversely impact client accounts. Nevertheless, the management of personal accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest, and there is no assurance that these codes of ethics will adequately address such conflicts.

Viking and the Funds have adopted certain compliance procedures, which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION

The Fund is an investment portfolio of Integrity Managed Portfolios (the "Trust") and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Trust may offer multiple portfolios; currently six portfolios are offered. The Trust is an unincorporated business trust organized under Massachusetts law on August 10, 1990. The Fund had no operations from that date to September 25, 1996, other than matters relating to organization and registration. On September 25, 1996, the Fund commenced its Public Offering of capital shares.

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide its shareholders with as high a level of current income exempt from both federal and Oklahoma state income tax as is consistent with preservation of capital. The Fund will seek to achieve this objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of Oklahoma municipal securities.

Shares of the Fund are offered at net asset value plus a maximum sales charge of 4.25% of the offering price.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Investment security valuation—Securities for which quotations are not readily available (which will constitute a majority of the securities held by the Fund) are valued using a matrix system at fair value as determined by Integrity Money Management. The matrix system has been developed based on procedures approved by the Board of Trustees and includes consideration of the following: yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality; type of issue, coupon, maturity, and rating; indications as to value from dealers; and general market conditions.

Because the market value of securities can only be established by agreement between parties in a sales transaction, and because of the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, the fair values as determined may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed. The Fund follows industry practice and records security transactions on the trade date.

The Fund concentrates its investments in a single state. This concentration may result in the Fund investing a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers.

When-issued securities—The Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The values of the securities purchased on a when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities, if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Contingent deferred sales charge—In the case of investments of $1 million or more, a 1.00% CDSC may be assessed on shares redeemed within 24 months of purchase (excluding shares purchased with reinvested dividends and/or distributions).

Federal and state income taxes—The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income and any net realized gain on investments to its shareholders; therefore, no provision for income taxes is required.

In June of 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 establishes the minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of tax-return positions in financial statements. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years for purposes of implementing this standard and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the financial statements. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, are classified in the financial statements as "Other expense".

The tax character of distributions paid was as follows:

The Fund has unexpired net capital loss carryforwards for tax purposes as of July 31, 2009 totaling $2,245,430, which may be used to offset future capital gains. The capital loss carryforward amounts will expire in each of the years ended July 31 as shown in the following table.

$

1,147,143

For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund did not make any permanent reclassifications to reflect tax character.

Net capital losses incurred after October 31 and within the tax year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next taxable year. For the year ended July 31, 2009, the Fund deferred to August 1, 2009, post-October capital losses, post-October currency losses, and post-October passive foreign investment company losses of $282,603.

Distributions to shareholders—Dividends from net investment income, declared daily and paid monthly, are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund at net asset value or paid in cash. Capital gains, when available, are distributed at least annually.

Premiums and discounts—Premiums and discounts on municipal securities are amortized for financial reporting purposes.

Other—Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from net investment income and realized gains determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses due to wash sales and futures transactions.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

Futures contracts—The Fund may purchase and sell financial futures contracts to hedge against changes in the values of tax-exempt municipal securities the Fund owns or expects to purchase.

A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell units of a particular index or a certain amount of U.S. Government or municipal securities at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with a broker an amount of cash or securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" requirement of the futures exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund, dependent on the fluctuations in the value of the underlying index. Daily fluctuations in value are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. When entering into a closing transaction, the Fund will realize, for book purposes, a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the futures contracts sold and the futures contracts to buy. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) related to open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for federal income tax purposes.

Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin.

Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts. These risks may include changes in the value of the futures contracts that may not directly correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Use of estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3: CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

As of July 31, 2009, there were unlimited shares of no par authorized; 2,971,207 and 3,909,928 shares were outstanding at July 31, 2009 and July 31, 2008, respectively.

NOTE 4: INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Integrity Money Management, the Fund's investment adviser; Integrity Funds Distributor, the Fund's underwriter; and Integrity Fund Services, the Fund's transfer, accounting, and administrative services agent; are subsidiaries of Integrity Mutual Funds, the Fund's sponsor.

The Fund has engaged Integrity Money Management to provide investment advisory and management services to the Fund. The Investment Advisory Agreement provides for fees to be computed at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Fund has recognized $76,699 of investment advisory fees after a partial waiver for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Money Management of $5,688 at July 31, 2009 for investment advisory fees. Certain officers and trustees of the Fund are also officers and Directors of Integrity Money Management.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, Integrity Money Management has agreed to pay all the expenses of the Fund (excluding taxes, brokerage fees, commissions, and acquired fund fees and expenses, if any) that exceed 1.07% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis up to the amount of the investment advisory and management fee. Integrity Money Management and Integrity Funds Distributor may also voluntarily waive fees or reimburse expenses not required under the advisory or other contracts from time to time. Accordingly, after fee waivers and expense reimbursements, the Fund's actual total annual operating expenses were 1.07% for the year ended July 31, 2009.

Principal underwriter and shareholder services

Integrity Funds Distributor serves as the principal underwriter for the Fund. The Fund has adopted a distribution plan for each class of shares as allowed by Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. Distribution plans permit the Fund to reimburse its principal underwriter for costs related to selling shares of the Fund and for various other services. These costs, which consist primarily of commissions and service fees to broker-dealers who sell shares of the Fund, are paid by shareholders through expenses called "Distribution Plan expenses." The Fund currently pays an annual distribution fee of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the class. Distribution Plan expenses are calculated daily and paid monthly. The Fund has recognized $92,345 of distribution fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Funds Distributor of $6,708 at July 31, 2009 for distribution fees.

As transfer agent to the Fund, Integrity Fund Services provides shareholder services for a variable fee equal to 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $73,876 of transfer agency fees and expenses for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $5,366 at July 31, 2009 for transfer agency fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's accounting services agent for a monthly fee equal to the sum of a fixed fee of $2,000 and a variable fee equal to 0.05% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, together with reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses. An additional minimum fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $42,469 of accounting service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $3,342 at July 31, 2009 for accounting service fees. Integrity Fund Services also acts as the Fund's administrative services agent for a variable fee equal to 0.125% of the Fund's average daily net assets on an annual basis for the Fund's first $50 million and at a lower rate on the average daily net assets in excess of $50 million, with a minimum of $2,000 per month plus out-of-pocket expenses. An additional fee of $500 per month is charged for each additional share class. The Fund has recognized $46,173 of administrative service fees for the year ended July 31, 2009. The Fund has a payable to Integrity Fund Services of $3,354 at July 31, 2009 for administrative service fees.

NOTE 5: INVESTMENT SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

The cost of purchases and proceeds from the sales of investment securities (excluding short-term securities) aggregated $1,250,568 and $10,380,966, respectively, for the year ended July 31, 2009.

NOTE 6: INVESTMENT IN SECURITIES

At July 31, 2009, the aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same for financial reporting purposes at $32,791,617. The net unrealized depreciation of investments based on the cost was $781,643, which is comprised of $411,929 aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and $1,193,572 aggregate gross unrealized depreciation. Differences between financial reporting-basis and tax-basis are due to differing treatment for market discount, capital loss deferral, wash sales, and futures transactions.

NOTE 7: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 31, 2009, Corridor Investors, LLC completed a transaction with Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. and Integrity Money Management, Inc. With the completion of the transaction, Corridor Investors, LLC and its subsidiaries (Viking, Integrity Funds Distributor, Inc. and Integrity Fund Services, Inc.) began providing investment advisory, distribution and other services to Integrity Managed Portfolios effective August 1, 2009.

Subsequent events noted above were evaluated through September 11, 2009, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of the Oklahoma Municipal Fund

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the Oklahoma Municipal Fund (one of the portfolios constituting the Integrity Managed Portfolios), including the schedule of investments as of July 31, 2009, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Oklahoma Municipal Fund of the Integrity Managed Portfolios as of July 31, 2009, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Governance/Nominating Committee (the "Committee") consists of members of the Board of Trustees of the registrant (the "Board") who are not considered "interested persons" of the registrant within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The primary function of the Committee is to identify individuals qualified to become Board members and recommend nominations for election to the Board. The Committee also takes a leadership role in shaping the governance of the registrant.

When considering whether to add additional or substitute trustees to the Board, the Committee shall take into account any proposals for candidates that are properly submitted to the registrant's Secretary. Shareholders wishing to present one or more candidates for consideration may do so by submitting a signed written request to the registrant's Secretary at PO Box 500, Minot, ND 58702-0500, which includes the following information: (a) name and address of shareholder and, if applicable, name of broker or record holder; (b) number of shares owned; (c) name of Fund(s) in which shares are owned; (d) whether the proposed candidate(s) consent to being identified in any proxy statement utilized in connection with the election of trustees; (e) the name and background information of the proposed candidate(s); and (f) a representation that the candidate(s) are willing to provide additional information about themselves, including assurances as to their in dependence.

Item 11. Controls and Procedures.

(a)

Based on their evaluation of the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this Form N-CSR (the "Report"), the registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial officer believe that the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 30a-3(c) under the 1940 Act) are effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in the Report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported by the filing date, including ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the Report is accumulated and communicated to the registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial officer who are making certifications in the Report, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

 

(b)

There were no changes in the registrant's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the 1940 Act) that occurred during the second fiscal quarter of the period covered by the Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

EX-99.CODE ETH 4 code20081210.htm

CODE OF ETHICS FOR THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE AND PRINCIPAL
FINANCIAL OFFICERS OF THE INTEGRITY FAMILY OF FUNDS

This Code of Ethics (the "Code") for Principal Executive and Principal Financial Officers has been adopted by each of the investment companies within the Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. complex (collectively, "Funds") to effectuate compliance with Section 406 under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules adopted to implement Section 406.

This Code applies to each Fund's principal executive officer, principal financial officer, controller or persons deemed to be performing similar critical financial and accounting functions (the "Covered Officers").

Purpose of the Code

This Code sets forth standards and procedures that are reasonably designed to promote:



Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;



Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that a registrant files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and in other public communications made by the Funds;



Compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations;



The prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code; and



Accountability for adherence to the Code.

In general, the principles that govern honest and ethical conduct, including the avoidance of conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships, reflect, at the minimum: (1) the duty in performing any responsibilities as a Covered Officer, to place the interests of the Funds ahead of personal interests; (2) the fundamental standard that Covered Officers should not take inappropriate advantage of their positions; (3) the duty to assure that the Fund's financial reports to its shareholders are prepared honestly and accurately in accordance with applicable rules and regulations; and (4) the duties performed by the Covered Officer on behalf of the Funds are conducted in an honest and ethical manner.

Each Covered Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual and apparent conflicts of interest.

Ethical Handling of Actual and Apparent Conflicts of Interest

A "conflict of interest" occurs when a Covered Officer's private interest interferes with the interests of the Funds. Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between Covered Officers and the Funds and already are subject to the conflict of interest provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Investment Company Act") and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 ("Investment Advisers Act"). This Code does not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace existing programs and procedures, and such conflicts fall outside of the parameters of this Code.

Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts arise from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship between each Fund and the investment adviser of which the Covered Officers are also officers and/or employees. As a result, this Code recognizes that the Covered Officers will, in the normal course of their duties, be involved in establishing procedures and implementing decisions that will have different effects on the adviser and the Funds. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual relationship between the Funds and the adviser and is consistent with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as officers of the Funds. If such duties are performed in conformity with the provisions of the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act, such activities will be deemed to have been handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the Funds' Boards of Directors/Trustees ("Boards") that the Covered Officers may also be officers or employees of one or more other investment companies covered by this or other codes.

Prohibited Activities

Other conflicts of interest are covered by the Code, even if such conflicts of interest are not subject to provisions in the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act. The following list provides examples of conflicts of interest under the Code, but keep in mind that these examples are not exhaustive. The foremost principle is that the personal interest of a Covered Officer should not be placed before the interest of the Funds or their shareholders.

Each Covered Officer must:



Not use his personal influence or personal relationships improperly to influence investment decisions or financial reporting by the Funds whereby the Covered Officer would benefit personally to the detriment of the Funds or their shareholders;



Not cause the Funds to take action, or fail to take action, for the individual personal benefit of the Covered Officer rather than the benefit the Funds;



Not use material non-public knowledge of portfolio transactions made or contemplated for the Funds to trade personally or cause others to trade personally in contemplation of the market effect of such transactions;



Not intentionally cause a Fund to fail to comply with applicable laws, rules and regulations, including failure to comply with the requirement of full, fair, accurate, understandable and timely disclosure in reports and documents that a Fund files with, or submits to, the SEC and in public communications made by the Funds;



Not fail to acknowledge or certify compliance with this Code on an annual basis.

There are some conflict of interest situations that should always be discussed with the Compliance Department or, under certain circumstances, the Board of Directors/Trustees if material. Examples of these include:



Service as a director on the board of any public company absent prior authorization by the Board;



The receipt of any gifts of more than de minimis value, generally gifts in excess of $100;



The receipt of any entertainment from any company with which the Funds have current or prospective business dealings unless such entertainment is business related, reasonable in cost, appropriate as to time and place, and not so frequent as to raise a suggestion of unethical conduct;



Any ownership interest in, or employment relationship with, any of the Fund's service providers, other than its investment adviser, principal underwriter, administrator or any affiliated person thereof;



A direct or indirect financial interest in commissions paid by the Funds for effecting portfolio transactions or for selling or redeeming shares other than an interest arising from the Covered Officer's employment, such as compensation or equity ownership.

Disclosure and Compliance



Each Covered Officer must familiarize himself with the disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Funds;



Each Covered Officer must not knowingly misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Funds to others, including to the Fund's directors/trustees and auditors, and to governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations;



Each Covered Officer should, to the extent appropriate within his area of responsibility, consult with other officers and employees of the Funds and the adviser with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents the Funds file with the SEC and in other public communications made by the Funds; and



It is the responsibility of each Covered Officer to promote compliance with the standards and restrictions imposed by applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Reporting and Accountability

Each Covered Officer must:



Upon adoption of the Code or upon becoming a Covered Officer, affirm in writing to the Board that he has received, read, understands and will adhere to this Code;



Annually affirm to the Board that he has received and read the Code and that he understands that he is subject to, and has complied with, the requirements of the Code;



Not retaliate against any other Covered Officer or any employee of the Funds or their affiliated persons for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith; and



Notify Compliance, who will then notify the Fund's Audit Committee or the Fund's legal counsel promptly if he knows of any violation of this Code or if a potential violation exists. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code.

The Fund's Audit Committee (the "Committee") or in their discretion, the Fund's legal counsel, is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations in which questions are presented under it and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation. Any approvals or waivers sought by the Principal Executive Officer will be considered by the Committee. In determining whether to waive any of the provisions of this Code, the Committee will consider whether the proposed waiver (1) is prohibited by the Code; (2) is consistent with honest and ethical conduct; and (3) will result in a conflict of interest between the Covered Officer's personal and professional obligations to the Funds.

Investigating Actual and Apparent Conflicts of Interest

The Funds will follow these procedures in investigating and enforcing the Code:



The Committee will take all appropriate action to investigate any potential violations reported to them;



If, after such investigation, the Committee believes that no violation has occurred, no further action is necessary;



Any matter that the Committee believes is a violation will be reported to the Board;



If the Board agrees that a violation has occurred, it will consider appropriate action, which may include review of, and appropriate modifications to, applicable policies and procedures; notification to appropriate personnel of the investment adviser or its board; or a recommendation to dismiss the Covered Officer;



The Committee will be responsible for granting waivers, as appropriate; and



Any changes to or waivers of this Code will, to the extent required, be disclosed as provided by SEC rules.

Other Policies and Procedures

This Code shall be the sole code of ethics adopted by the Funds for purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and forms applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. While other policies or procedures of the Funds, the Funds' adviser, principal underwriter, or other service providers govern the behavior or activities of the Covered Officers who are subject to this Code, they are superseded by this Code to the extent that they overlap or conflict with the provisions of this Code.

Amendments

At least annually, the Board of Directors/Trustees of each Fund will review the Code and determine whether any amendments are necessary or desirable. Any amendments to this Code, other than amendments to Exhibit A, must be approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Board, including a majority of independent directors.

Record Retention and Confidentiality

All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this Code will be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly to the extent permitted by applicable laws, rules and regulations. Except as otherwise required by law or this Code, such matters shall not be disclosed to anyone other than the appropriate Board and its counsel.

For Internal Use Only

The Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Funds and does not constitute an admission, by or on behalf of any Fund, as to any fact, circumstance, or legal conclusion.
