Dear Gentlepersons:
Each portfolio on Attachment A, as may be amended from time to time,
(each a "Portfolio" and collectively, the "Portfolios") is a series of Xxxxxxxxx
Xxxxxx Advisers Management Trust, a Delaware business trust ("Trust"). Each
Portfolio may have one or more classes of shares of beneficial interest
("Class").
You hereby agree during the period from the date indicated on
Attachment A through April 30, 2005 ("Limitation Period"), to pay the
Portfolio's (or where applicable the Class of such Portfolio) operating expenses
(excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other transactional
expenses relating to a Portfolio's assets, and extraordinary expenses of the
Portfolio) ("Operating Expenses") which exceed, in the aggregate, the rate
specified in Attachment A of the Portfolio's (or, where applicable, the Class of
such Portfolio) average daily net assets ("Expense Limitation").
With respect to Regency, Liquid Asset and Socially Responsive
Portfolios, each Portfolio in turn agrees to reimburse you, out of assets
belonging to the Portfolio (or the Class of such Portfolio, if applicable) for
any Operating Expenses of the Portfolio (or Class) in excess of the Expense
Limitation paid or assumed by you during the Limitation Period, provided that
you would not be entitled to reimbursement for any amount by which such
reimbursement would cause the Portfolio's (or, where applicable, the Class of
such Portfolio) total Operating Expenses to exceed the annual rate of average
net assets specified in Attachment A. And further, provided that no amount will
be reimbursed by the Portfolio more than three years after the year in which it
was incurred by you. The Trust agrees to furnish or otherwise make available to
you such copies of its financial statements, reports, and other information
relating to its business and affairs as you may, at any time or from time to
time, reasonably request in connection with this agreement.
With respect to the rest of the Portfolios, each Portfolio in turn
agrees to reimburse you through December 31, 2008 ("Reimbursement Period"), out
of assets belonging to the Portfolio (or the Class of such Portfolio, if
applicable) for any Operating Expenses of the Portfolio (or Class) in excess of
the Expense Limitation paid or assumed by you during the Limitation Period,
provided that you would not be entitled to reimbursement for any amount by which
such reimbursement would cause the Portfolio's (or, where applicable, the Class
of such Portfolio) total Operating Expenses to exceed the annual rate of average
net assets specified in Attachment A. And further, provided that no amount will
be reimbursed by the Portfolio more than three years after the year in which it
was incurred by you. The Trust agrees to furnish or otherwise make available to
you such copies of its financial statements, reports, and other information
relating to its business and affairs as you may, at any time or from time to
time, reasonably request in connection with this agreement.
You understand that you shall look only to the assets of the Portfolio
(or, where applicable, the Class of the Portfolio) for performance of this
agreement and for payment of any claim you may have hereunder, and neither any
other series of the Trust, nor any of the Trust's trustees, officers, employees,
agents or shareholders, whether past, present or future, shall be personally
liable therefor.
This agreement is made and to be performed principally in the State of
New York, and except insofar as the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
or other federal laws and regulations may be controlling, this agreement shall
be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws
of the State of New York. Any amendment to this agreement shall be in writing
signed by the parties hereto.
If you are in agreement with the foregoing, please sign the form of
acceptance on the enclosed counterpart hereof and return the same to us.
Very truly yours,
