RE: EXPENSE LIMIT AGREEMENT - CAUSEWAY INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
Causeway International Opportunities Fund (the "Fund") is a series of
Causeway Capital Management Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the "Trust"). The
Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has entered into an agreement with Causeway
Capital Management LLC ("Causeway") whereby Causeway provides investment
advisory services to the Fund (the "Investment Advisory Agreement").
We hereby agree with respect to each class of the Fund, for so long as this
Expense Limit Agreement is in effect, to waive the fees payable to us under the
Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to each class of the Fund or to
reimburse the operating expenses allocable to each class of the Fund, to the
extent that each class' operating expenses (excluding brokerage fees and
commissions, interest, taxes, fees and expenses of other funds in which the Fund
invests, and extraordinary expenses) exceed, in the aggregate, the rate per
annum, as set forth in Schedule A, as a percentage of the average daily net
assets of each class of the Fund. We agree that this obligation shall constitute
a contractual commitment enforceable by the Trust and that we may not assert any
right to reimbursement of any amounts so waived or reimbursed if such
reimbursement would result in either class of the Fund exceeding the expense
limits set forth in Schedule A.
We acknowledge the limit of shareholder liability as set forth in the
Declaration of Trust of the Trust and agree that any obligation assumed by the
Trust pursuant to this agreement shall be limited in all cases to the Trust and
its assets. We agree not to seek satisfaction of any such obligations from the
shareholders of the Trust, nor from the Trustees of the Trust.
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 laws of the
State of California.

any time by the Trust's Board of Trustees and will terminate automatically in

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,
