Investment Subadvisory Contracts (a) Subject to the provisions of the Agreement and Declaration of Trust and the 1940 Act, the Manager, at its expense, may, in its discretion, subject to approval by the Trust’s Board of Trustees and, if required by applicable law, the Trust’s shareholders, select and contract with one or more Subadvisers for the Fund with respect to all or a portion of the Fund’s assets. If the Manager retains a Subadviser hereunder, then unless otherwise provided in the applicable subadvisory agreement, the Subadviser (and not the Manager) shall have the obligation (as to the portion of the Fund’s assets for which it acts as subadviser) of furnishing continuously an investment program and determining which securities will be purchased or sold for the Fund, and what portion may be held uninvested, and placing all orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities for the Fund and selecting broker-dealers in connection therewith. (b) The Manager will be responsible for payment of all compensation to any Subadviser and other persons and entities to which Manager delegates any duties hereunder. (c) The Manager’s obligations to a Fund in respect of the performance by any Subadviser of its obligations in respect of the Fund shall be only those obligations set out in Section 2(b) of this Management Agreement and the applicable subadvisory agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Manager shall have no liability to the Fund or any of its shareholders or to any other person for the failure or refusal of any Subadviser to perform its obligations in respect of the Fund, including without limitation any mistake or error of judgment on the part of the Subadviser or any employee or agent of the Subadviser or any failure by the Subadviser to comply with applicable law, the applicable subadvisory agreement, any investment objective or policies of the Fund, or any instructions from the Board of Trustees or the Manager.
Investment Sub-Advisory Services Sub-Adviser shall serve as investment sub-adviser and shall supervise and direct the investments of each series of Penn Series listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (each, a “Fund”), as such Exhibit may be amended by mutual agreement of the parties hereto, and to exercise all rights incidental to ownership in accordance with the investment objectives, program and restrictions applicable to the Fund as provided in Penn Series’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), as amended from time to time, and such other limitations as may be imposed by law or as Penn Series or Adviser may impose with notice in writing to Sub-Adviser. To enable Sub-Adviser to fully exercise its discretion, Adviser hereby appoints Sub-Adviser as agent and attorney-in-fact for the Fund with full power and authority to buy, sell and otherwise deal in securities and contracts for the Fund. No investment will be made by Sub-Adviser for the Fund if the investment would violate the investment objectives, investment restrictions or limitations of the Fund set out in the Prospectus and the SAI delivered to the Sub-Adviser and as may be amended and delivered to Sub-Adviser in the future. Sub-Adviser shall not take custody of any assets of Penn Series, but shall issue settlement instructions to the custodian designated by Penn Series (the “Custodian”). Sub-Adviser shall, in its discretion, obtain and evaluate such information relating to the economy, industries, businesses, securities markets and securities as it may deem necessary or useful in the discharge of its obligations hereunder and shall formulate and implement a continuing program for the management of the assets and resources of the Fund in a manner consistent with the investment objectives of the Fund. In furtherance of this duty, Sub-Adviser, as agent and attorney-in-fact with respect to Adviser and Penn Series, is authorized, in its discretion and without prior consultation with Adviser or Penn Series, to: (a) buy, sell, exchange, convert, lend, and otherwise trade in any stocks, bonds, and other securities or assets; (b) place orders and negotiate the commissions (if any) for the execution of transactions in securities with or through such brokers, dealers, underwriters or issuers as Sub-Adviser may select, in conformance with the provisions of Paragraph 4 herein; and (c) take such other actions Sub-Adviser deems to be appropriate; provided, however, that Sub-Adviser shall make no investment for the Fund that would violate the objectives, investment program, or restrictions or limitations of the Fund.
