BETWEEN
THE GLENMEDE FUND, INC.,
ON BEHALF OF ITS SERIES AS LISTED ON SCHEDULE B,
AND
STATE STREET BANK AND TRUST COMPANY
This First Amendment (this “Amendment”) dated as of October 15, 2009 is between THE GLENMEDE
FUND, INC., a registered management investment company organized and existing under the laws of
Maryland (the “Company”), on behalf of its series listed on Schedule B, severally and not
jointly (the Company acting on behalf of each such series, a “Fund’ and collectively, the “Funds”),
and STATE STREET BANK AND TRUST COMPANY (“State Street”), acting either directly or through its
subsidiaries or affiliates.
Reference is made to a Securities Lending Authorization Agreement dated September 1, 2007,
between the Company on behalf of the Funds (hereinafter defined) and State Street, as in effect on
the date hereof prior to giving effect to this Amendment (the “Agreement”).
The Agreement shall be deemed for all purposes to constitute a separate and discrete agreement
between State Street and each of the series of shares of the Company as listed on Schedule
B to the Agreement as it may be amended by the parties, and no series of shares of the Company
shall be responsible or liable for any of the obligations of any other series of the Company under
the Agreement or otherwise, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement.
WHEREAS, the Funds and State Street desire to amend the Agreement as set forth below.
NOW THEREFORE, for value received, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties mutually agree to amend the Agreement
in the following respects:
1. Definitions. All terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings
set forth in the Agreement.
2. Amendments.
(a) Section 1 (Definitions) of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following
definition after original subsection (d) as new subsection 1(e):
“(e) “Financing Transaction” means a Loan against cash Collateral made for
the purpose of generating cash for the Fund to provide cash collateral to State Street for the
purposes of securities lending transactions pursuant to the SLSA (as defined hereunder) where the
Fund is a borrower of securities and State Street, acting as principal, is a lender of securities.
Only the Long/Short Portfolio and the Total Market Portfolio shall participate in Financing
Transactions.
(b) Section 1 (Definitions) of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following
definition after original subsection (j) as new subsection (l):
“(l) “SLSA” means that certain Securities Lending and Services Agreement
dated as of October 15, 2009 between State Street Bank and Trust Company and the Fund.”
All subsections of Section 1 (Definitions) are hereby re-lettered according to the amendments set
forth in Sections 2(a) and (b) hereof.
(c) Section 3 (Securities to be Loaned) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following language:
“3. Securities to be Loaned. All of the Fund’s securities held by State Street as
custodian shall be subject to this securities lending program and constitute Available Securities
hereunder, except those securities, which the Fund or the Investment Manager specifically
identifies herein or in written notices to State Street as not being Available Securities. In the
absence of any such identification herein or other written notices identifying specific securities
as not being Available Securities, State Street shall have no authority or responsibility for
determining whether any of the Fund’s securities should be excluded from the securities lending
program.
State Street will not make a Loan on behalf of a Fund if as a result of such Loan the
aggregate outstanding Loans for such Fund would be in excess of 33 1/3% of such Fund’s total asset
value, including collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions hereunder.
For the avoidance of doubt, the collateral received in connection with securities lending
transactions can be included as part of the Fund’s total assets in calculating the percentage of
the Fund’s total assets it is permitted to loan in reliance upon the Xxxxxxx Funds, SEC No-Action
Letter (pub. avail. November 25, 1997).”
(d) Section 4 (Borrowers) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with
the following language:
“4. Borrowers. The Fund hereby authorizes State Street to effect Loans of Available
Securities of the Fund with Borrowers identified on the Schedule of Borrowers attached hereto as
Schedule D, including, without limitation, State Street Bank and Trust Company and any affiliate
thereof (each acting in the capacity of a Borrower, hereafter also referred to as an “SSB
Borrower”), which schedule may be modified from time to time by State Street and the Fund in
writing. State Street may delete a Borrower from Schedule D at any time
in its sole discretion. State Street represents and warrants that formal annual credit
reviews are conducted for all Borrowers in accordance with State Street’s policies and procedures.
Each Fund acknowledges that it is aware that State Street, acting as the Fund’s agent pursuant
hereto, is or may be deemed to be the same legal entity as, or affiliated with, SSB Borrower acting
as “Borrower” under a Securities Loan Agreement. Each Fund represents that (i) the power granted
herein to State Street, as Fund’s agent, to enter into Loan transactions with Borrowers (including
any SSB Borrower) and the other powers granted to State Street, as agent pursuant hereto, are given
as a result of the Fund’s desire to increase its opportunity to lend securities held in its account
on commercially reasonable terms, without such loans being considered a breach of State Street’s
fiduciary duty, and are given expressly for the purpose of averting and waiving any prohibitions
upon such lending, investment or exercise of such other powers which might otherwise exist in the
absence of such powers, and (ii) transactions effected pursuant to and in compliance with this
Agreement and any Securities Loan Agreement (including any Securities Loan Agreement with any SSB
Borrower) will not constitute a breach of trust or other fiduciary duty or any other duty by State
Street or affiliates thereof.
In connection with a Loan to any SSB Borrower pursuant hereto, the Fund shall furnish, and
State Street shall cause the applicable SSB Borrower to furnish, to State Street for delivery to
the other, upon request (i) the most recent available audited statement of its financial condition,
and (ii) the most recent available unaudited statement of its financial condition, if more recent
than the audited statement. As long as any Loan to an SSB Borrower is outstanding under this
Agreement, the Fund shall, and State Street shall cause the SSB Borrower to, in either case, upon
request, also promptly deliver to the other (via State Street) all such recent financial
information that is subsequently available, and any other financial information or statements that
the other may reasonably request.
In the event any such Loan is effected by State Street to SSB Borrower, State Street hereby
covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Fund that it has adopted and implemented procedural
safeguards to help ensure that all actions taken by State Street as agent on behalf of the Fund in
respect of a Loan transaction pursuant hereto will be effected (i) at “arms length” terms,
including prices, and (ii) by individuals other than individuals who are acting on behalf of SSB
Borrower in its principal capacity as Borrower in the Loan transaction.
State Street shall not be responsible for any statements, representations, warranties or
covenants made by any Borrower in connection with any Loan or for any Borrower’s performance of or
failure to perform the terms of any Loan under the applicable Securities Loan Agreement or any
related agreement, including the failure to make any required payments, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing sentence shall not serve as
any limitation on the Fund’s remedies against an SSB
Borrower in connection with a Loan of
Available Securities on behalf of the Fund authorized in accordance herewith.”
(e) The first sentence of the fourth paragraph of Section 9 (Investment of Cash Collateral and
Compensation) of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following
language:
“In the event the net income generated by any investment made pursuant to the first paragraph
of this Section 9 does not equal or exceed the amount due the Borrower (the rebate fee for the use
of cash Collateral) in accordance with the agreement between Borrower and State Street, State
Street and the Fund shall, in accordance with the fee split set forth on Schedule A, share
the amount equal to the difference between the net income generated and the amounts to be paid to
the Borrower pursuant to the Securities Loan Agreement; provided, however, that for
a Financing Transaction, the Fund shall be solely responsible for the payment of the rebate fee to
the Borrower.”
(f) The first sentence of Section 12(b) (Standard of Care and Indemnification) of the
Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language:
“The Fund shall indemnify State Street and hold State Street harmless from any loss or
liability (including without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred
by State Street in rendering services hereunder or in connection with any breach of the terms of
this Agreement by the Fund, including any breach of a representation or warranty by the Fund
hereunder, except such loss or liability which results from State Street’s failure to exercise the
standard of care required by Section 12(a).”
(g) The following language is hereby added to the end of Section 13 (Representations and
Warranties):
“The Fund acknowledges that any obligation to determine whether any transaction made pursuant
to this Agreement or the SLSA is in compliance with those laws and regulations under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) relating to the borrowing or lending of securities
or cash, the posting or receipt of collateral relating to such borrowing or lending of cash or
securities, or the issuance of ‘senior securities,’ as that term is defined under Section 18 of the
1940 Act, including all obligations to compile and maintain such data and make such calculations as
are necessary or appropriate in order to make such determinations, as well as all obligations that
require the Fund to segregate, identify and substitute Fund assets, and daily monitor such assets
and their values (collectively, “Applicable 1940 Act Requirements”), except as specifically set
forth herein or in the SLSA, is the obligation of Fund and not State Street or any State Street
Affiliate. In addition, the Fund represents and warrants to State Street as of the close of
business on each day that the Fund is so registered or is required to be so registered, that (i)
any transaction or series of transactions under this Agreement and/or the SLSA that creates
leverage as a matter of law or fact is (A) in furtherance of the Fund’s investment objective or
objectives, (B) permitted or not otherwise prohibited by the Fund’s investment policies, and
(C) disclosed in all material respects in the Fund’s registration statement filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 8 of the 1940
Act, and (ii) Fund is in
compliance with all laws and regulations applicable to the Fund, including Applicable 1940
Act
Requirements.”
(h) The last sentence of Section 14(a) (Borrower Default Indemnification) of the Agreement is
hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language:
“Subject to the Fund’s obligations pursuant to Section 8 hereof and Schedule A,
paragraph 3(b), if and to the extent that such proceeds are insufficient or the Collateral is
unavailable, the purchase of such Replacement Securities shall be made at State Street’s expense.”
(i) The following language is hereby added to the end of Section 14 (Borrower Default
Indemnification):
“(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 14, each Fund agrees that State
Street shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Fund under this Section 14 to the extent that
proceeds of Collateral from a Financing Transaction are insufficient or the Collateral from a
Financing Transaction is unavailable.”
(j) The following sentence is added after the second sentence of Section 15 (Continuing
Agreement and Termination) of the Agreement:
“Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon
written notice to the other party in the event of such other party’s insolvency, bankruptcy or
consent to the appointment of any trustee, receiver or liquidator of it or a material part of its
properties.”
(k) The following section is added after Section 25 (Confidentiality) of the Agreement:
“26. Securities Contract
Each party hereto agrees that (1) this Amendment and the Financing Transactions made hereunder
are “securities contracts” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States
Code, as amended, and (2) each party’s rights under this Agreement, including its rights to
termination, are not subject to the automatic stay under Title 11 of the United States code, as
amended for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code and any bankruptcy proceeding thereunder.”
(l) Schedule A to the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with
the Schedule A attached hereto.
(m) Schedule D to the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with
the Schedule D attached hereto.
(n) Exhibit 4.1 to the Agreement, and any reference thereto, is hereby deleted in its
entirety.
3. Miscellaneous. Except to the extent specifically amended by this Amendment, the
provisions of the Agreement shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect. This
Amendment shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
4. Effective Date. This First Amendment is effective as of the date first written above.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto execute the above Amendment by affixing their
signatures below.

On an annualized basis, the management/trustee/custody/fund administration/transfer agent fee for

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, to the extent cash Collateral obtained

capacity as agent pursuant to the terms of the SLSA, to provide cash to State Street Bank and
Trust Company, acting in its capacity as principal lender, as collateral in securities borrowing
transactions under the SLSA, the Fund hereby authorizes and instructs State Street to transfer and
deliver such cash Collateral (including via liquidation of cash Collateral investments) to State

prior notice to the Fund, debit any account or accounts maintained by the Fund with State Street.
