Exhibit (h)(8)
MUTUAL FUND FEE AND EXPENSE AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is made as of this 1st day of January, 2008 by and among Columbia Funds Master Investment Trust, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, for itself and on behalf of its series listed on Schedule A attached hereto, Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, for itself and on behalf of its series listed on Schedule A attached hereto, Columbia Variable Insurance Trust I, a Delaware Statutory Trust, for itself and on behalf of its series listed on Schedule A attached hereto, Banc of America Funds Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, for itself and on behalf of its series listed on Schedule A attached hereto, Columbia Management Advisors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CMA”) and Columbia Management Distributors, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (“CMD”).
WHEREAS, Columbia Funds Master Investment Trust, LLC, Columbia Funds Series Trust, Columbia Funds Variable Insurance Trust I and Banc of America Funds Trust (each a “Company” and together, the “Companies”) are each open-end investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940;
WHEREAS, CMA, an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, serves as investment adviser to each of the Companies pursuant to separate investment advisory agreements (the “Investment Advisory Agreements”);
WHEREAS, CMA serves as administrator to each of the Companies pursuant to separate administration agreements (the “Administration Agreements”);
WHEREAS, CMD serves as distributor to Columbia Funds Series Trust, Columbia Funds Variable Insurance Trust I and Banc of America Funds Trust pursuant to a distribution agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”); and
WHERERAS, the parties hereto have agreed to consolidate multiple pre-existing Mutual Fund Fee and Expense Agreements into a single Mutual Fund Fee and Expense Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Investment Advisory Fee Waivers. The parties hereby agree that CMA shall waive any investment advisory fees payable to it under the Investment Advisory Agreements to the extent reflected for each series set forth in Schedule A attached hereto.
2. Administration Fee Waivers. The parties hereby agree that CMA shall waive any administration fees payable to it under the Administration Agreements to the extent reflected for each series set forth in Schedule A attached hereto.
3. 12b-1 Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Fee Waivers. The parties hereby agree that CMD shall waive any 12b-1 distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees payable to it under the Distribution Agreement to the extent reflected for each series set forth in Schedule A attached hereto.
4. Limitation of Total Operating Expense Ratios—Investment Advisory, Administration Fee Ratios and Other Expenses. The parties hereby agree that CMA as appropriate shall waive any advisory fees payable to it under the Investment Advisory Agreements, waive any administration fees payable to it under the Administration Agreements, or reimburse other expenses of the series to the extent necessary to ensure that covered expenses (as defined below) do not exceed the total operating expense ratio for each series set forth in Schedule A attached hereto, absent a determination by the Companies’ Boards of Trustees that extraordinary circumstances or a material reduction in portfolio assets has occurred that has made it appropriate to permit an increase in total operating expense ratios. “Covered expenses” include all expenses incurred directly by a series that are required to be included as an expense in a series’ Form N-1A Fee Table and accordingly exclude acquired fund fees and expenses, brokerage commissions and other transaction charges and interest on borrowed money and also exclude rule 12b-1 distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees and expenses that are deemed extraordinary by Columbia Funds Series Trust’s Board of Trustees. “Covered expenses” shall reflect the application of balance credits made available by the Companies’ custodian and custodial charges relating to overdrafts.
5. Automatic Renewal. This Agreement shall renew automatically, with respect to each series set forth in Schedule A, on the same terms, for a period of one year from the expiration of the waiver and/or expense commitment applicable to such series as set forth in Schedule A, unless prior to such an expiration, CMA and/or CMD provide notice to the appropriate Board of Trustees of a Company of any proposals to increase, decrease or eliminate the series’ fee waivers and/or expense commitment , or to change the time period covered or any other terms thereof, for a subsequent period. Any renewal of this Agreement with respect to a series does not preclude CMA or CMD from requesting that a Company’s Board of Trustees approve changes to the fee waivers and/or expense commitment, or to the time period covered or any other terms thereof, prior to a subsequent renewal.
6. Entire Agreement; Modification; Amendment. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to its subject matter. Each provision herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the enforceability of any such other provision or agreement. In addition, each provision herein shall be treated as separate and independent with respect to each Company and shall be treated as separate and independent from such provision or agreement with respect to each of the other Companies. No modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless in writing and executed by the parties affected thereby.
