services provided and the expenses assumed as Administrator pursuant
to Section I of this Agreement, the Company will pay Concord a fee,
computed daily and payable monthly, based on the net assets of the
Prime Fund, Treasury Fund, Horizon Tax-Exempt Money Fund, California
Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund and Pacific Horizon Tax-Exempt Money
Market Fund considered separately on a per-Fund basis at the following

the payment of any penalty, on 60 days' written notice to the Company.
This Agreement will automatically and immediately terminate in the
event of its "assignment." (As used in this Agreement, the terms
