WHEREAS, Janus and PWM are parties to a Sub-Advisory Agreement on
behalf of Janus Small Cap Value Fund (the "Fund"), a series of Janus Investment
Fund, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust"), dated July 1, 2004 (the
"Agreement");
WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Agreement as set forth in
greater detail below;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 10 of the Agreement, any amendment to the
Agreement is subject to approval by (i) a majority of the Trustees, including a
majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons (as that phrase is
defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 0000 Xxx) of the Trust or Janus, PWM or their
affiliates, and (ii) if required by applicable law, by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund (as that phrase is
defined in Section 2(a)(42) of the 1940 Act);
WHEREAS, the parties have obtained Trustee approval as set forth above,
and the parties agree that a shareholder vote is not required to amend the
Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the effective date of the termination of the Agreement has
been changed to February 1, 2007;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual
agreements set forth below, the parties agree to amend the Agreement as follows:
1. Section 7 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and
replaced with the following:
"7. Term. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first
set forth above and shall continue in effect until February 1, 2007,
unless sooner terminated in accordance with its terms, and shall
continue in effect from year to year thereafter only so long as such
continuance is
specifically approved at least annually by (a) the vote of a majority
of the Trustees of the Trust who are not parties hereto or interested
persons of the Trust, Janus or PWM, cast in person at a meeting called
for the purpose of voting on the approval of the terms of such renewal,
and (b) either the Trustees of the Trust or the affirmative vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund. The annual
approvals provided for herein shall be effective to continue this
Agreement from year to year if given within a period beginning not more
than ninety (90) days prior to February 1 of each applicable year,
notwithstanding the fact that more than three hundred sixty-five (365)
days may have elapsed since the date on which such approval was last
given."
2. The parties acknowledge that the Agreement, as amended, remains in
full force and effect as of the date of this Amendment, and that this Amendment,
together with the Agreement and any prior amendments, contains the entire
understanding and the full and complete agreement of the parties and supercedes
and replaces any prior understandings and agreements among the parties
respecting the subject matter hereof.
3. This Amendment may be contemporaneously executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused their duly authorized
officers to execute this Amendment as of the date first above written.
