PROXY STATEMENT
ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD JUNE 9, 2010

GENERAL INFORMATION

The enclosed Proxy is being solicited by the Board of Directors ("Board") of Capital Financial Holdings, Inc. fka Integrity Mutual Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), a North Dakota corporation, for use in connection with the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on June 9, 2010, at 9:00 a.m. local time (the "Meeting") at the Sleep Inn, 2400 10th Street SW, Minot, North Dakota, and at any postponement or adjournment thereof. Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on April 26, 2010 (the "Record Date") will be entitled to vote at the Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof. When the accompanying Proxy (each, a "Proxy") is properly executed and returned, the shares it represents will be voted at the Meeting in the manner specified.

ANY PROXY MAY BE REVOKED AT ANY TIME BEFORE IT IS VOTED BY WRITTEN NOTICE MAILED OR DELIVERED TO THE SECRETARY, BY A RECEIPT OF A PROXY PROPERLY SIGNED AND DATED SUBSEQUENT TO AN EARLIER PROXY AND BY REVOCATION OF A WRITTEN PROXY BY REQUEST IN PERSON AT THE ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS. IF NOT SO REVOKED, THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THE PROXY WILL BE VOTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE PROXY FORM.

The address of the principal executive office of the Company is 1 Main Street North, Minot, North Dakota 58703. This Proxy Statement and the Board's form of Proxy are being mailed to shareholders on or about April 27, 2010. Concurrent with the mailing of this Statement, the Company is furnishing to shareholders its Annual Report for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

The Company is bearing all costs of soliciting Proxies and expressly reserves the right to solicit Proxies otherwise than by mail. Telephone, telegraph, facsimile or other personal solicitations of certain shareholders and brokers may follow the solicitation of Proxies by mail by one or more of the directors, by officers or by employees of the Company. The Company may make requests to trusts, banks and brokers or other similar agents or fiduciaries for the voting instructions of beneficial owners and reimburse the expenses incurred by such agents or fiduciaries in obtaining such instructions. As of the date of this mailing, however, the Company has not made any contracts or arrangements for such solicitations; hence, it cannot identify any parties or estimate the cost of such solicitation.

As of April 26, 2010, the Company had outstanding 14,455,943 common shares, $0.0001 par value, with each share being entitled to one vote, except for the election of directors, when shareholders are entitled to cumulate their votes. Representation of a majority of the Company's shares outstanding on such date, either in person or by Proxy, constitutes a quorum for the Meeting. When a quorum is present, the vote by the holders of a majority of the shares present and entitled to vote at the Meeting shall decide the proposals to be voted upon at the Meeting, A shareholder voting through a Proxy who abstains with respect to a certain proposal is considered to be present and entitled to vote on such proposal at the Meeting and is, in effect, casting a negative vote, but a shareholder (including a broker) who does not give authority to a Proxy to vote or withholds authority to vote on a certain proposal shall not be considered present and entitled to vote on such proposal.

Because many of the Company's shareholders may be unable to attend the Meeting in person, our Board solicits Proxies by mail to give each shareholder an opportunity to vote on all matters presented at the Meeting. Shareholders are urged to:

 

 

 

 

(1)

read this Proxy Statement carefully;

 

 

 

 

(2)

specify their choice in each matter by marking the appropriate box on the enclosed Proxy; and

 

 

 

 

(3)

sign, date and return the Proxy by mail in the postage-paid, return-addressed envelope provided for that purpose.

QUESTION AND ANSWER SUMMARY: ABOUT THE MEETING

What is being voted on at the Meeting?

The Company's Board is asking shareholders to consider two items at this Meeting:

 

 

 

 

To elect four directors to the Company's Board of Directors;

 

 

 

 

To ratify the selection of Brady, Martz & Associates, P.C., as the Company's independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010.

Who can vote at the Meeting?

Our Board has set April 26, 2010, as the Record Date for the Meeting. Only persons holding shares of record at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Meeting. Each share will be entitled to one vote on each matter properly submitted for vote to our shareholders at the Meeting. On the Record Date, there were approximately 14,455,943 common shares outstanding held by a total of 750 shareholders of record. Therefore, there are a total of approximately 14,455,943 votes that will be entitled to be cast at the Meeting.

What constitutes a quorum for the Meeting?

A quorum for the Meeting is based on the number of votes that can be cast rather than the number of actual shares that are represented, because each share has one vote per share. To have a quorum, we need more than 50% of the votes entitled to be cast to be present, in person or by proxy, including votes as to which authority to vote on any proposal is withheld, shares abstaining as to any proposal and broker non-votes (where a broker submits a Proxy but does not have authority to vote a customer's shares on one or more matters) on any proposal, all of which will be considered present at the Meeting for purposes of establishing a quorum for the transaction of business at the Meeting. Each vote will be tabulated separately.

How do I vote?

If you complete and properly sign the accompanying Proxy form and return it to us, it will be voted as you direct, unless you later revoke the Proxy. Unless instructions to the contrary are marked or if no instructions are specified, shares represented by a Proxy will be voted for the proposals set forth on the Proxy, and in the discretion of the persons named as proxies, on such other matters as may properly come before the Meeting. If you are a registered shareholder, that is, if you hold your shares in certificate form, and you attend the Meeting, you may deliver your completed Proxy form in person. If you hold your shares in "street name," that is, if you hold your shares through a broker or other nominee, and you wish to vote in person at the Meeting, you will need to obtain a Proxy form from the institution that holds your shares.

Can I change my vote after I return my Proxy form?

Yes. Even after you have submitted your Proxy, you may change your vote at any time before the Proxy is exercised by filing with our Secretary, at the address at the top of page 1, either a written notice of revocation or a duly executed Proxy bearing a later date or you may vote in person at the Meeting. The powers of the Proxy holders will be suspended if you attend the Meeting in person and so request. However, attendance at the Meeting will not by itself revoke a previously granted Proxy.

Any written notice of revocation sent to us must include the shareholder's name and must be received prior to the Meeting to be effective.

What vote is required to approve each item?

Proposal No. l. Election of Directors. The election of each director nominee requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast, if a quorum is present, in the election of directors. Shareholders are entitled to cumulate votes with respect to the election of directors only in accordance with the procedure described under Proposal No. l herein.

Proposal No. 2. Ratification of Auditors. An affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting, if a quorum is present, is required for ratification of the selection of Brady, Martz & Associates, P.C. as independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 1, 2010.

While affirmative abstentions are counted in tabulations of the votes cast on proposals presented to shareholders, with respect to Proposal No. 2 broker non-votes are not counted for purposes of determining whether the proposal has been approved. Therefore, for those matters affirmative abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal.

Votes cast by Proxy will be tabulated by our internal accounting department. The independent persons appointed by the Company to act as election inspectors for the Meeting will count votes cast by Proxy or in person at the Meeting.


PROPOSAL NO. 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

At the Meeting to be held on June 9, 2010, and at any and all postponements or adjournments thereof, it is intended that the Company's shares represented by properly executed Proxies that are enclosed herewith will be voted to elect the director nominees, unless authority so to vote is withheld. Each nominee is currently a member of the Board of the Company and all of the nominees have indicated a willingness to serve as a director, if elected. If elected, each nominee will serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until the earlier of removal, resignation, death or disqualification. The Board has no reason to believe that any of the director nominees will be unable to serve as directors or become unavailable for any reason. If, at the time of the Meeting, any of the director nominees shall become unavailable for any reason, the persons entitled to vote the Proxy will vote, as such persons shall determine in his or her discretion, for such substituted nominee or nominees, if any, nominated by the Board. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes present or represented to vote at the Meeting is necessary to elect each director nominee. Shareholders of the Company will have an opportunity on their Proxy to vote in favor of one or more director nominees while withholding authority to vote for one or more director nominees.

On March 25, 2010 the Board of Directors approved pursuant to the Bylaws of the Company, a reduction in the number of directors from five to four. In accordance with the Bylaws of the Company when the number of directors is reduced, the current directors continue to serve until the expiration of their terms and therefore the number of directors will remain at five until the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company.

On March 25, 2010 Mr. Vance Castleman announced his retirement from the Board of Directors effective upon the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company. As a result, Mr. Castleman will not be a director nominee at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

The directors have voted to nominate four directors for election to hold offices for a one-year term until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their successors are elected and qualified. Proxies solicited by the Board will, unless otherwise directed, be voted to elect the four nominees named below.

Following is certain information regarding the nominees for director:

Cumulative voting is permitted in the election of directors in accordance with the following procedure:

Each shareholder entitled to vote for directors has the right to cumulate those votes in the election of directors by giving written notice of such intent to any officer of the Company before the Meeting or the presiding officer at the Meeting at any time before the election of directors, in which case:

 

 

 

 

1.

The presiding officer at the Meeting shall announce, before the election of directors, that shareholders may cumulate their votes; and

 

 

 

 

2.

Each shareholder shall cumulate those votes either by casting for one candidate the number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number of votes represented by the shares entitled to vote, or by distributing all of those votes on the same principle among any number of candidates.

Therefore, unless the above-described procedure is implemented, the holders of a majority of the Company's shares could elect all of the directors. It is expected that the Proxies received by the directors' nominees will be voted, except to the extent that authority is withheld on any Proxy as to all of one or more individuals, to elect as directors the following nominees, whose principal occupations during the past five years, directorships and certain other affiliations and information are set forth below:

Nominating Committee

The Company has established a nominating committee of the Board. The Nominating Committee is composed of Vaune Cripe, Vance Castleman and Myron Thompson. The Nominating Committee does not have a formal, consistent policy for the nominating process and no charter governing the nominating process. The Nominating Committee will consider all nominees equally, including candidates recommended by shareholders.

The Nominating Committee will identify potential nominees based on specified objectives in terms of the composition of the Board, taking into account such factors as industry experience and areas of expertise. Nominees will be evaluated on the basis of their experience, judgment, integrity, ability to make independent inquiries, understanding of the Company's business and willingness to devote adequate time to Board duties.

Audit Committee

The Company has established a separately designated standing audit committee established in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Audit Committee is currently composed of, Vaune Cripe, Myron Thompson and Greg Philipps, each of whom meet the independence requirements of the SEC with respect to audit committee membership. Ms. Cripe was appointed by the Audit Committee to serve as its financial expert due to her qualifications, experience and certifications. The primary function of the Audit Committee is to fulfill its responsibility of overseeing management's conduct of the financial reporting process, the annual independent audit of the Company's financial statements, and reviewing the financial reports provided by the Company. To accomplish this, the Audit Committee oversees the external audit coverage, including the annual nomination of the independent accountants, reviews accounting policies and policy decisions, reviews the financial statements, including interim financial statements and annual financial statements, together with auditor's opinions, inquires about the existence and substance of any significant accounting accruals, reserves or estimates made by management, meets privately with the independent accountants to discuss all pertinent matters and reports to the Board regarding its activities. The Audit Committee held four regular meetings in 2009.

The Audit Committee has adopted a formal, written charter, which was amended on March 9, 2004. The charter specifies the scope of the Audit Committee's responsibilities and how it should carry out those responsibilities. The charter also outlines the Audit Committee's pre-approval policies and procedures that require the Audit Committee to review and approve, in advance, fees proposed to be charged to the Company by the auditors for each audit and non-audit service. A copy of the written charter, as amended, is attached as Exhibit A to the Company's proxy statement delivered to shareholders for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held June 9, 2010.

Report of Audit Committee

The Audit Committee met to review the audited financials for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, with members of management and the independent accountants. Included in the discussions were issues regarding matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as may be modified or supplemented. Additionally, the independent accountants discussed with the Audit Committee new accounting policies, management's judgments and use of accounting estimates in the preparation of the financial statements and significant audit adjustments. Annually, the independence of the auditors is discussed and the auditors provide information regarding their independence required by Independence Standards Board No. 1, as may be modified or supplemented. Based upon a thorough discussion of the aforementioned, the Audit Committee has recommended to the full Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year 2009.

Vaune Cripe

Myron Thompson

Greg Philipps

Compensation Committee
