Re: Sponsorship Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is hereby made to that certain Sponsorship Agreement, dated
as of February 4, 2005 (such agreement, as amended and in effect from time to
time, the "Sponsorship Agreement"), by and between Domini Advisor Trust (the
"Trust") and Domini Social Investments LLC ("Domini" or the "Sponsor").
The Trust and the Sponsor hereby agree that Section 3 of the
Sponsorship Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:

rendered and facilities provided by the Sponsor hereunder, the Trust
shall pay Domini a fee accrued daily and payable monthly as specified
on the Schedule A which is attached hereto and made a part of this
Agreement. Such compensation shall be paid to Domini at the end of each
month, and calculated by applying a daily rate, based on the annual
percentage rates as specified on the attached Schedule A, to the
assets. The fee calculation shall be based on the Trust's average daily
net assets for the Trust's then-current fiscal year. If Domini serves
as the Sponsor for less than the whole of any period specified in this
Section 3, the compensation to Domini, as Sponsor, shall be prorated.
For purposes of computing the fees payable to the Sponsor hereunder,
the value of the Trust's net assets shall be computed in the manner
specified in the Trust's then-current prospectus(es) and statement(s)
of additional information.
The Schedule A attached hereto is hereby added as Schedule A to the
Sponsorship Agreement.
