     WHEREAS, Investment Adviser, Fund Manager and the Trust are parties to the Agreement;

     WHEREAS, the parties mutually desire to amend the Agreement as set forth herein;

     WHEREAS, the Trust has retained the Investment Adviser to render investment advisory services to the various portfolios of the Trust pursuant to an Advisory Agreement, as amended, and such Agreement authorizes the Investment Adviser to engage a subadviser to discharge the Investment Adviser’s responsibilities with respect to the investment management of such portfolios; and

     WHEREAS, the parties desire to appoint Fund Manager to serve as subadviser to another portfolio of the Trust;

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the renewal of the premises, promises and mutual covenants contained herein and in the Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration paid, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties, the parties agree that the Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

     1. The Exhibit A attached to this Amendment hereby replaces the current Exhibit A to the Agreement.

     2. Section 2 is hereby amended by adding the following to the end of the first paragraph:

     The Fund Manager is authorized to open brokerage accounts on behalf of the Funds in accordance with Trust procedures. The Fund Manager is authorized to enter into futures account agreements, ISDA master agreements and related documents, and to open accounts and take other necessary or appropriate actions related thereto, in accordance with Trust procedures.

     3. The following is hereby added after Section 2(b)(v):

     and (vi) any other applicable laws and regulations, including without limitation, proxy voting regulations. To the extent that the Fund Manager engages in transactions

that require segregation of assets or other arrangements, including but not limited to, options, futures contracts, short sales or borrowing transactions, the Fund Manager shall identify to the Trust’s Custodian those assets that are available to be segregated or “earmarked” on the Custodian’s books in accordance with the 1940 Act, if necessary, based upon trading strategies and positions the Fund Manager employs on behalf of the Fund, as well as to segregate assets, if necessary, in accordance with the 1934 Act and any other requirements of broker/dealers who may execute transactions for the Fund in connection therewith.

     4. Section 2(c) is hereby amended by adding the following to the end of the section:

     The Fund Manager shall not direct brokerage to any broker-dealer in recognition of, or otherwise take into account in making brokerage allocation decisions, sales of shares of a Fund or of any other investment vehicle by that broker-dealer.

     5. Section 2(e) is hereby amended by adding the following to the end of the section:

     The Fund Manager agrees to comply with such rules, procedures and time frames as the Trust’s custodian may reasonably set or provide with respect to the clearance and settlement of transactions for a Fund, including but not limited to submission of trade tickets. Any Fund assets shall be delivered directly to the Trust’s custodian.

     6. Section 2(f) of the Agreement and Section 2.1 in Amendment No. 5 to the Agreement dated May 1, 2006 (“Amendment No. 5”) are hereby replaced with the following:

     (f) will provide reasonable assistance to the Investment Adviser, custodian or recordkeeping agent for the Trust in determining or confirming, consistent with the procedures and policies stated in the Trust’s valuation procedures and/or the Registration Statement, the value of any Fund securities or other assets of the Fund for which the Investment Adviser, custodian or recordkeeping agent seeks assistance from the Fund Manager or identifies for review by the Fund Manager. Such reasonable assistance shall include (but is not limited to): (i) designating and providing timely access, on an as-needed basis and upon the reasonable request of the Investment Adviser or custodian, to one or more employees of the Fund Manager who are knowledgeable about the security/issuer, its financial condition, trading and/or other relevant factors for valuation, which employees shall be available for consultation when the Board’s Valuation Committee convenes; (ii) notifying the Investment Adviser in the event that, with respect to a security that is held by the Fund, the application of the Fund Manager’s procedures used for valuing the assets held by other accounts under the management of the Fund Manager would result in a determination of fair value with respect to a security where a market quotation is not readily available or is deemed to be unreliable with respect to such security, including notifying the Investment Adviser of the valuation of such assets determined under such procedures; and notifying the Investment Adviser in the event that any Fund security’s value does not appear to reflect corporate actions, news, significant events or such security otherwise requires review to determine if fair valuation is

necessary under the Trust’s procedures (provided that the information provided by the Fund Manager pursuant to this section shall not include valuations provided by third-party services that value securities based upon changes in one or more broad-based indices (e.g. foreign equity security fair valuation models)); (iii) upon the request of the Investment Adviser or custodian, assisting in obtaining bids and offers or quotes from broker/dealers or market-makers with respect to securities held by the Fund; (iv) verifying pricing and providing fair valuations or recommendations for fair valuations in accordance with the Trust’s valuation procedures, as they may be amended from time to time; and (v) maintaining adequate records and written backup information with respect to the securities valuation services provided hereunder, and providing such information to the Investment Adviser or the Trust upon request. Such records shall be deemed to be Trust records. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that although Fund Manager may, at the request of the Investment Adviser, provide reasonable assistance with respect to the valuation of assets of the Fund, the Fund Manager shall not be responsible for the Trust’s valuation decisions.

     7. The first sentence in Section 2.2 in Amendment No. 5 that begins “will assist the Fund...” is hereby replaced with the following:

     Will provide reasonable assistance to the Trust and the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) in complying with Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act, including providing, upon request, notice of any relevant regulatory exams, including any relevant deficiencies, and changes to business operations that are reasonably likely to affect the services provided by Fund Manager under this agreement, provided that such notice will be consistent with applicable law.

     8. Section 2.3 in Amendment No. 5 is hereby replaced with the following:

     (3) will comply with the Trust’s policy on selective disclosure of portfolio holdings of the Trust (the “Selective Disclosure Policy”), as provided in writing to the Fund Manager and as may be amended from time to time. As such, the Fund Manager agrees not to trade on non-public portfolio holdings information of the Trust in a manner inconsistent with applicable federal and state securities law or applicable international law, including anti-fraud provisions of such laws, or inconsistent with any internal policy adopted by the Fund Manager to govern trading of its employees. Compliance with the Policy also includes the requirement of entering into confidentiality agreements that meet the minimum requirements of the Policy with certain third parties who will be receiving non-public portfolio holdings of the Trust. The Fund Manager will provide any such agreements to the Investment Adviser or the Trust, as amended or supplemented, only if reasonably requested by the Investment Adviser or the Trust, provided however that the Fund Manager may provide only those parts of the agreements that relate to ensuring conformance with the Trust’s Selective Disclosure Policy. The Fund Manager agrees to provide a certification with respect to compliance with the Selective Disclosure Policy as may be reasonably requested by the Trust from time to time.

     (l) will (i) undertake reasonable best efforts to identify each security in the Funds that Fund Manager believes is a Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”), as that term is defined in Section 1296 of the Code, and (ii) provide such information for comparison purposes to the Investment Adviser at least annually (or more often and by such date(s) as the Investment Adviser shall reasonably request). This information will be provided for informational purposes only, and does not constitute tax or accounting advice. The Fund Manager makes no representation or warranties (i) as to the accuracy or completeness of such information and (ii) that any particular foreign corporation would be determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be a PFIC or not a PFIC at any particular time, and has no obligation to update or supplement the information.

Within 30 days of the end of each calendar quarter during which this Agreement remains in effect, the president, a vice president, the chief compliance officer, a managing director, or other senior officer (as the Investment Adviser determines appropriate) of the Fund Manager shall certify to the Investment Adviser that (a) the Fund Manager had a Code of Ethics that complied with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 during the previous calendar quarter, (b) the Code contains procedures reasonably necessary to prevent Access Persons from violating the Code, and that (c) except as otherwise disclosed, there have been no material violations of the Code or, if a material violation has occurred, that appropriate action has been taken in response to such violation. Upon written request of the Investment Adviser or the Trust, the Fund Manager shall permit representatives of the Investment Adviser and the Trust to examine the reports relating to the material violations (or summaries of the reports with non-public personal information redacted) required to be made under the Code of Ethics and other records evidencing enforcement of the Code of Ethics. With respect to material violations relating to individuals providing services to the Fund, the Fund Manager shall permit Investment Adviser or the Trust to review the name and/or title of such individuals and such other information as may be reasonably agreed upon by the Fund Manager and the Investment Adviser and/or the Trust, provided that Investment Adviser or the Trust reasonably requests such review in writing and is subject to any additional confidentiality obligations as the Fund Manager may reasonably require, in addition to being subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement (including Section 20).

     (n) (i) for non-U.S. class action settlements only (and for which there is an established and well-defined settlement proof-of-claims filing process), will take reasonable measures to monitor class action settlements relating to securities held by the Fund and, prior to the claims filing deadline, provide to Investment Adviser a claim form (or similar documentation) for Investment Adviser’s signature, and will file such claim form on behalf of the Fund provided that a signed form is returned to Fund Manager prior to the claims filing deadline; provided, however, that the Fund Manager shall have no such obligation to monitor class actions or make filings with respect to transactions of the Fund prior to Fund Manager’s management of the Fund; (ii) for U.S. class action settlements, Fund Manager shall not have any obligation to monitor class action settlements or file claims on behalf of the Fund, but upon request by the Investment

Adviser, shall research and confirm to the Investment Adviser whether the Fund held or traded in a particular security, on any particular day or during any particular timeframe within the term of this Agreement, as the Investment Adviser may specify, and shall provide to Investment Adviser any requested trade information (for example, a schedule of purchases and sales and/or holdings) for such security.

     (o) will provide reasonable assistance to the Investment Adviser with respect to the annual audit of the Trust’s financial statements, including, but not limited to: (i) providing broker contacts as needed for obtaining trade confirmations (in particular with respect to investments in loans (including participations and assignments) and all derivatives, including swaps); (ii) providing copies of all documentation relating to investments in loans (including participations and assignments) and derivative contracts, within a reasonable time after the execution of such documentation; (iii) providing assistance in obtaining trade confirmations in the event the Trust or the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm is unable to obtain such confirmations directly from the brokers; and (iv) obtaining market quotations for investments (including investments in loans (including participations and assignments) and derivatives) that are not readily ascertainable in the event the Trust or the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm is unable to obtain such market quotations through independent means.

     (p) will, on an annual basis upon request of the Investment Adviser, (i) advise the Investment Adviser if the Fund Manager acts as sub-adviser to another U.S. registered mutual fund that follows the same investment strategy as the Fund and (ii) if so, provide comparative fee information with respect to such U.S. registered mutual fund(s).

10. Section 3 is renamed to Section 3(a) and the last sentence of new Section 3(a) is hereby replaced with the following:

     The Fund Manager represents and warrants that it is a duly registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act and a duly registered investment adviser in all states in which the Fund Manager is required to be registered. The Fund Manager will notify the Investment Adviser immediately if any action is brought by any regulatory body which in the Fund Manager’s reasonable determination will likely affect that registration.

     11. The following is hereby added as Section 3(b) and replaces the amended language under Section 3 in Amendment No. 5:

     (b) With respect to the disclosure respecting each Fund, the Fund Manager represents and agrees that the descriptions in the Trust’s Prospectus, as of the date of this Agreement and as of the date of any Registration Statement or supplement thereto, as furnished to the Fund Manager, (a) about the Fund’s investment goal and main investments (“Fund Description”) is consistent in all material respects with the manner in which the Fund Manager intends to manage each Fund, and (b) about the Fund’s risks (“Risk Description”) is consistent in all material respects with the risks known to the Fund Manager that arise in connection with the manner in which the Fund Manager intends to manage the Fund. The Fund Manager further agrees to notify the Investment

Adviser and the Trust promptly in the event that the Fund Manager becomes aware that the Fund Description for a Fund is inconsistent in any material respect with the manner in which the Fund Manager is managing the Fund, and in the event that the Risk Description is inconsistent in any material respect with the risks known to the Fund Manager that arise in connection with the manner in which the Fund Manager is managing the Fund. In addition, the Fund Manager agrees to comply with the Investment Adviser’s reasonable request for information regarding the personnel of the Fund Manager who are responsible for the day-to-day management of a Fund’s assets.

     12. Section 4 is hereby amended to add the following to the end of the section and replaces the language under Section A5 in Amendment No. 4 dated November 7, 2005:

     Fund Manager agrees to pay to the Investment Adviser the reasonable cost of generating a prospectus supplement, which includes preparation, filing, printing, and distribution (including mailing) of the supplement, if the Fund Manager makes any changes that require immediate disclosure in the prospectus or any required regulatory documents by supplement, including material changes to its structure or ownership, to investment personnel, to investment style or management, or otherwise (“Changes”), and at the time of notification to the Trust by the Fund Manager of such Changes, the Trust is not generating a supplement for other purposes or the Trust does not wish to add such Changes to a pending supplement. However, such changes will not be unreasonably withheld by the Investment Adviser from a pending supplement. In the event two or more fund managers each require a supplement simultaneously, the expense of each supplement will be shared pro rata with such other fund manager(s) based upon the number of pages required by each such fund manager.

     13. The following paragraph is hereby added to Section 13:

     Except as provided in Section 14 and as may otherwise be required by the 1940 Act or the rules thereunder or other applicable law, the Fund Manager agrees that the Trust and the Investment Adviser, any affiliated person thereof, and each person, if any, who, within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, controls the Trust or Investment Adviser, shall not be liable for, or subject to any damages, expenses, or losses in connection with, any act or omission connected with or arising out of any services rendered under this Agreement, except by reason of the Trust’s or Investment Adviser’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of their duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of the Trust’s or Investment Adviser’s obligations and duties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust or Investment Adviser may be liable to the Fund Manager for acts of good faith and nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver or limitation of rights that the Trust or Investment Adviser may have under federal or state securities laws.
