AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION



This Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of Nov. 10, 2005 (the

"Agreement") is between AXP Dimensions Series, Inc. (the "Selling

Corporation"), a Minnesota corporation, on behalf of its series, RiverSource

New Dimensions Fund (the "Selling Fund"), and AXP Growth Series, Inc. (the

"Buying Corporation"), a Minnesota corporation, on behalf of its series,

RiverSource Large Cap Equity Fund (the "Buying Fund"), and RiverSource

Investments, LLC (solely for the purposes of Section 3c and 10 of the

Agreement).



In consideration of their mutual promises, the parties agree as follows:



1.   SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL. The Selling Fund will call a meeting of its

     shareholders for the purpose of approving the Agreement and the

     transactions it contemplates (the "Reorganization"). The Buying Fund

     agrees to furnish data and information, as reasonably requested, for the

     proxy statement to be furnished to shareholders of the Selling Fund.



2.   REORGANIZATION.



     a.  Plan of Reorganization. The Reorganization will be a reorganization

         within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of

         1986, as amended (the "Code"). At the Closing, the Selling

         Corporation will convey all of the assets of the Selling Fund to the

         Buying Fund. The Buying Fund will assume all liabilities of the

         Selling Fund. At the Closing, the Buying Corporation will deliver

         shares of the Buying Fund, including fractional shares, to the

         Selling Corporation. The number of shares will be determined by

         dividing the value of the net assets of shares of the Selling Fund,

         computed as described in paragraph 3(a), by the net asset value of

         one share of the Buying Fund, computed as described in paragraph

         3(b). The Selling Fund will not pay a sales charge on the receipt of

         Buying Fund shares in exchange for the assets of the Selling Fund. In

         addition, the shareholders of the Selling Fund will not pay a sales

         charge on distribution to them of shares of the Buying Fund.



     b.  Closing and Effective Time of the Reorganization. The Reorganization

         and all related acts necessary to complete the Reorganization (the

         "Closing") will occur on the first day on which the New York Stock

         Exchange (the "NYSE") is open for business following approval of

         shareholders of the Selling Fund and receipt of all necessary

         regulatory approvals, or such later date as the parties may agree.



3.   VALUATION OF NET ASSETS.



     a.  The net asset value of shares of the Selling Fund will be computed as

         of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the day of Closing

         (the "Valuation Date") using the valuation procedures in the Buying

         Fund's prospectus.

     b.  The net asset value per share of shares of the Buying Fund will be

         determined as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the

         Valuation Date, using the valuation procedures in the Buying Fund's

         prospectus.



     c.  At the Closing, the Selling Fund will provide the Buying Fund with a

         copy of the computation showing the valuation of the net asset value

         per share of shares of the Selling Fund on the Valuation Date. The

         Buying Fund will provide the Selling Fund with a copy of the

         computation showing the determination of the net asset value per

         share of shares of the Buying Fund on the Valuation Date. Both

         computations will be certified by an officer of Ameriprise Financial,

         Inc.



4.   LIQUIDATION AND DISSOLUTION OF THE SELLING FUND.



     a.  As soon as practicable after the Valuation Date, the Selling

         Corporation will liquidate the Selling Fund and distribute shares of

         the Buying Fund to the Selling Fund's shareholders of record. The

         Buying Fund will establish shareholder accounts in the names of each

         Selling Fund shareholder, representing the respective pro rata number
