NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and undertakings set forth | |
in this "Agreement," the Trust and the Advisor hereby agree as follows: | |
1. | Appointment of Advisor. The Trust hereby employs the Advisor as investment |
advisor, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, for the portion of the assets of the Fund that | |
the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board of Trustees") determines in its sole discretion to assign | |
to the Advisor from time to time (referred to in this Agreement as the "Chartwell Portfolio"). As | |
of the date of this Agreement, the Chartwell Portfolio will consist of the portion of the assets of | |
the Fund that the Board of Trustees has determined to assign to the Advisor, as communicated to | |
the Advisor on behalf of the Board of Trustees by The Vanguard Group, Inc. ("Vanguard"). The | |
Board of Trustees may, from time to time, make additions to, and withdrawals from, the assets of | |
the Fund assigned to the Advisor. The Advisor accepts such employment and agrees to render | |
the services herein set forth, for the compensation herein provided. | |
2. | Duties of Advisor. The Trust employs the Advisor to manage the investment and |
reinvestment of the assets of the Chartwell Portfolio; to continuously review, supervise, and | |
administer an investment program for the Chartwell Portfolio; to determine in its discretion the | |
securities to be purchased or sold and the portion of such assets to be held uninvested; to provide | |
the Fund with all records concerning the activities of the Advisor that the Fund is required to | |
maintain; and to render regular reports to the Trust's officers and Board of Trustees concerning | |
the discharge of the foregoing responsibilities. The Advisor will discharge the foregoing | |
responsibilities subject to the supervision and oversight of the Trust's officers and the Board of | |
T~ustees,and in compliance with the objectives, policies and limitations set forth in the Fund's | |
prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, any additional operating policies or | |
procedures that the Fund communicates to the Advisor in writing, and applicable laws and | |
regulations. The Advisor agrees to provide, at its own expense, the office space, furnishings and |
equipment, and personnel required by it to perform the services on the terms and for the | |
compensation provided herein. | |
3. | Securities Transactions. The Advisor is authorized to select the brokers or |
dealers that will execute purchases and sales of securities for the Chartwell Portfolio, and is | |
directed to use its best efforts to obtain the best available price and most favorable execution for | |
such transactions. To the extent expressly permitted by the written policies and procedures | |
established by the Board of Trustees, and subject to Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act | |
of 1934, as amended, any interpretations thereof by the Securities and Exchange Commission | |
(the "SEC") or its staff, and other applicable law, the Advisor is permitted, but is not required, to | |
pay a broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of | |
the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that | |
transaction if the Advisor determines in good faith that such amount of commission was | |
reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such | |
broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the Advisor's overall | |
responsibilities to the accounts as to which it exercises investment discretion. The execution of | |
such transactions in conformity with the authority expressly referenced in the immediately | |
preceding sentence shall not be deemed to represent an unlawful act or breach of any duty | |
created by this Agreement or otherwise. The Advisor agrees to use its best efforts to comply with | |
any directed brokerage or other brokerage arrangements that the Fund communicates to the | |
Advisor in writing. The Advisor may manage other portfolios and expects that the Fund and | |
other portfolios it manages will, from time to time, purchase or sell the same securities. The | |
Advisor may aggregate orders for the purchase or sale of securities on behalf of the Fund with | |
orders on behalf of other portfolios the Advisor manages, to the extent consistent with the | |
Advisor's duty to seek best execution and to ensure the fair and equitable allocations of | |
aggregated securities. Securities purchased or proceeds of securities sold through aggregated | |
orders will be allocated to the account of each portfolio managed by the advisor that bought or | |
sold such securities at the average execution price. If less than the total of the aggregated orders | |
is executed, the securities or proceeds will generally be allocated pro rata among the | |
participating portfolios in proportion to their planned participation in the aggregated orders. If | |
the securities or proceeds are not allocated pro rata among the participating portfolios, the | |
Advisor will allocate such securities or proceeds in a manner that is fair and equitable to all | |
participating portfolios, and will record the basis of such non-pro rata allocation in writing or in | |
electronic form and maintain such records in a manner consistent with applicable recordkeeping | |
requirements under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Investment Advisers Act of | |
1940. The Advisor will promptly communicate to the Trust's officers and the Board of Trustees | |
any information relating to the portfoIio transactions the Advisor has directed on behalf of the | |
Chartwell Portfolio as such officers or the Board may reasonably request. |
4. | Compensation of Advisor. For services to be provided by the Advisor pursuant |
to this Agreement, the Fund will pay to the Advisor, and the Advisor agrees to accept as full | |
compensation therefore, an investment advisory fee at the rate specified in Schedule A to this | |
Agreement. The fee will be calculated based on annual percentage rates applied to the average | |
daily net assets of the Chartwell Portfolio and will be paid to the Advisor quarterly. Further, the | |
investment advisory fee will be increased or decreased by applying a performance adjustment, as | |
specified in Schedule A. |
5. | Reports. The Fund and the Advisor agree to furnish to each other current |
prospectuses, proxy statements, reports to shareholders, certified copies of their financial | |
statements, and such other information with regard to their affairs as each may reasonably | |
request, including, but not limited to, information about changes in partners of the Advisor. The | |
Fund acknowledges receipt of Part I1 of the Advisor's Form ADV. | |

the Advisor against any liability to the Fund or its shareholders to which it might otherwise be | |
subject by reason of any willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of | |
its duties or the reckless disregard of its obligations with respect to the Advisor's management of | |
the Chartwell Portfolio under this Agreement. | |

SCHEDULEA | |
Pursuant to Section 4 of the Agreement, the Fund shall pay the Advisor compensation as follows: | |
1.1 | Calculation of the Base Fee. The Base Fee for each fiscal quarter of the Fund is |
calculated by multiplying an Annual Percentage Rate (shown below) to the | |
average daily net assets of the Chartwell Portfolio during such fiscal quarter, and | |
dividing the result by four. The Fund's fiscal quarter ends are the months ending | |
January, April, July, and October. |
1.2 | Calculation of the Performance Adjustment. The Performance Adjustment for |
each fiscal quarter of the Fund shall be calculated by multiplying the appropriate | |
Adjustment Percentage (shown below) to the Annual Percentage Rate applied to | |
the average of the month-end net assets of the Chartwell Portfolio over the | |
previous 36-months, and dividing the result by four. The Adjustment Percentage | |
for each fiscal quarter of the Chartwell Portfolio shall be determined by applying | |
the following Performance Adjustment Schedule to the cumulative performance | |
of the Chartwell Portfolio relative to the Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Growth Index (the | |
"Index") over the rolling 36-month period applicable to such fiscal quarter. (See | |
Fee Example #I .) |
1.3 | Transition Rules for Calculating Advisor's Compensation. The Performance |
Adjustment will not be hlly incorporated into the determination of the Adjusted | |
Fee until the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2013. Until that date, the transition | |
rules specified in Schedule B will apply. | |
1.4 | Other Special Rules Relating to Advisor's Compensation. The following |
special rules will also apply to the Advisor's compensation: |
(a) | Chartwell Portfolio Unit Value. The "Chartwell Portfolio unit value" shall be determined by dividing the total net assets of the Chartwell Portfolio by a given number of units. At the inception of this Agreement, the number of units in the Chartwell Portfolio shall be equal to the number of such units in existence as determined under the Prior Agreement; provided, however, that as assets are added to or withdrawn from the Chartwell Portfolio, the number of units in the Chartwell Portfolio shall be adjusted based on the unit value of the Chartwell Portfolio on the day such changes are executed. |
(b) | Chartwell Portfolio Performance. The investment performance of the Chartwell Portfolio for any period, expressed as,a percentage of the Chartwell Portfolio unit value at the beginning of the period, will be the sum of (i) the change in the Chartwell Portfolio (nit value during such period; (ii) the unit value of the Fund's cash distributions from the Chartwell Portfolio's net investment income and realized net capital gains (whether short or long term) having an ex-dividend date occurring within the period; and (iii) the unit value of capital gains taxes per share paid or payable on undistributed realized long-term capital gains accumulated to the end of such period by the Chartwell Portfolio, expressed as a percentage of the Chartwell Portfolio unit value at the beginning of such period. For this purpose, the value of distributions of realized capital gains per unit of the Chartwell Portfolio, of dividends per unit of the Chartwell Portfolio paid from investment income, and of capital gains taxes per unit |
of | the Chartwell Portfolio paid or payable on undistributed realized long- |
term | capital gains shall be treated asreinvested in Anits of the Chartwell |
Portfolio | at the unit value in effect at the close of dusiness on the record |
date | for the payment of such distributions and diviAends and the date on |
which | provision is made for such taxes, after giving effect to such |
distributions, | dividends, and taxes. For purposes of calculating investment |
performance, | the Chartwell Portfolio unit value will'be determined net of |
all | fees and expenses of the Fund attributable to the Chartwell Portfolio. |
Thus, | the performance of the Chartwell Portfolio will be net of all fees and |
expenses | of the Fund attributable to the Chartwell Portfolio when |
compared | to the Index. |
(c) | Index Performance. The investment record of the Index for any period, |
expressed | as a percentage of the Index level at the beginning of such |
period, | will be the sum of (i) the change in the lev41of the Index during |
such | period, and (ii) the value, computed consisten/ly with the Index, of |
cash | distributions having an ex-dividend date occurring within such period |
made | by companies whose securities make up the 1ndex. For this purpose, |
cash | distributions on the securities that make up the Index will be treated |
as | reinvested in the Index, at least as frequently as the end of each |
calendar | quarter following the payment of the dividend. The calculation |
will | be gross of applicable costs and expenses, and consistent with the |
methodology | used by the Index provider. |
I
(d) | Performance Computations. The foregoing notwithstanding, any |
computation of the investment performance of the Chartwell Portfolio and | |
the investment record of the Index shall be in accordance with any then | |
applicablerules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. | |

is in effect (the "Short Quarter") shall be calculated by applying the | |
foregoing annual percentage rates to the average net daily assets of the | |
Chartwell subportfolio during the Short Quarter, dividing the results by | |
four, and multiplying that figure by a ratio equal to the number of days in | |
the Short Quarter divided by the total number of days in the full quarter. | |
