Exhibit 23(d)(15)
SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT
This Sub-Advisory Agreement ("Agreement") executed as of April 30, 2008, is
between LINCOLN INVESTMENT ADVISORS CORPORATION, a Tennessee corporation (the
"Adviser"), and SSgA Funds Management, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the
"Sub-Adviser"). As a matter of administrative convenience, this Agreement is
entered into by and between the Sub-Adviser and the Adviser with respect to
multiple Funds of the Lincoln Variable Insurance Products Trust (the "Trust"),
each of which is a registered investment company registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended and is listed in Schedule B hereto.
Nevertheless, this Agreement shall be construed to constitute a separate
Agreement on behalf of each such Fund, and the term Fund is used in the singular
herein.
WHEREAS, the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has entered into an Investment
Management Agreement with the Adviser, pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed
to provide certain investment management services to the Fund; and
WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to appoint Sub-Adviser as investment
sub-adviser to provide the investment advisory services to the Fund, and
Sub-Adviser is willing to serve the Fund in such capacity.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained,
and each of the parties hereto intending to be legally bound, it is agreed as
follows:
1. SERVICES TO BE RENDERED BY SUB-ADVISER TO THE FUND.
(a) The Trust and the Advisor appoint the Sub-Advisor to act as investment
sub-advisor to the Fund on the terms set forth in this Agreement. Subject to the
direction and control of the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees") of the Trust,
the Sub-Adviser, at its expense, will furnish continuously an investment program
for the Fund which shall at all times meet the diversification requirements of
Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). The
Sub-Adviser will make investment decisions on behalf of the Fund and place all
orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities. The Sub-Adviser will
be an independent contractor and will not have authority to act for or represent
the Trust or Adviser in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Trust or
Adviser except as expressly authorized in this Agreement or another writing by
the Trust, Adviser and the Sub-Adviser.
(b) The Sub-Adviser, at its expense, will furnish (i) all necessary
investment and management facilities, including salaries of personnel, required
for it to execute its duties faithfully and (ii) administrative facilities,
including bookkeeping, clerical personnel and equipment necessary for the
efficient conduct of the investment affairs of the Fund (excluding determination
of net asset value per share, portfolio accounting and shareholder accounting
services). The Sub-Adviser shall be responsible for commercially reasonable
expenses relating to the printing and mailing of required supplements to the
Fund's registration statement, provided that such supplements relate solely to a
change in control of the Sub-Adviser or any change in the portfolio manager or
managers assigned by the Sub-Adviser to manage the Fund.
(c) The Sub-Adviser shall vote proxies relating to the Fund's investment
securities in the manner in which the Sub-Adviser believes to be in the best
interests of the Fund, and shall review its proxy voting activities on a
periodic basis with the Trustees. The Trust or Adviser may withdraw the
authority granted to the Sub-Adviser pursuant to this Section at any time upon
written notice.
(d) The Sub-Advisor shall not be responsible for filing proofs of claim or
otherwise participating in class action lawsuits with respect to securities held
by the Fund.
(e) The Sub-Adviser will select brokers and dealers to effect all portfolio
transactions subject to the conditions set forth herein (except to the extent
such transactions are effected in accordance with such policies or procedures as
may be established by the Board of Trustees.) In the selection of brokers,
dealers or futures commission merchants and the placing of orders for the
purchase and sale of portfolio investments for the Fund, the Sub-Adviser shall
use its best efforts to obtain for the Fund the most favorable price and
execution available, except to the extent it may be permitted to pay higher
brokerage commissions for brokerage and research services as described below.
The Adviser reserves the right to direct the Sub-Adviser upon written notice not
to execute transactions through any particular broker(s) or dealer(s), and the
Sub-Adviser agrees to comply with such request within ten business days of
receiving written notice. In using its best efforts to obtain for the Fund the
most favorable price and execution available, the Sub-Adviser, bearing in mind
the Fund's best interests at all times, shall consider all factors it deems
relevant, including by way of illustration: price; the size of the transaction;
the nature of the market for the security; the amount of the commission; the
timing of the transaction taking into account market prices and trends; the
reputation, experience and financial stability of the broker, dealer, or futures
commission merchant involved; and the quality of service rendered by the broker,
dealer or futures commission merchant in other transactions. Subject to such
policies as the Trustees may determine, and as communicated in writing to the
Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to
have breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason
of its having caused the Fund to pay a broker, dealer or futures commission
merchant that provides brokerage and research services to the Sub-Adviser an
amount of commission for effecting a portfolio investment transaction in excess
of the amount of commission another broker, dealer or futures commission
merchant would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Sub-Adviser
determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such
broker, dealer or futures commission merchant, viewed in terms of either that
particular transaction or the Sub-Adviser's over-all responsibilities with
respect to the Fund and to other clients of the Sub-Adviser as to which the
Sub-Adviser exercises investment discretion. The Sub-Adviser shall maintain
records adequate to demonstrate compliance with this section.
On occasions when the Sub-Adviser deems the purchase or sale of a security
to be in the best interest of the Fund as well as other clients of the Sub-
Adviser, the Sub-Adviser to the extent permitted by applicable laws and
regulations, may, but shall be under no obligation to, aggregate the securities
to be purchased or sold to attempt to obtain a more favorable price or lower
brokerage commissions and efficient execution. In such event, allocation of the
securities so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the
transaction, will be made by the Sub-Adviser in compliance with Section 17(d) of
the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the rules established thereunder, Section
206 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and any rules established thereunder,
and pursuant to policies adopted by the Sub-Adviser and approved by the Board of
Trustees of the Fund.
(f) The Sub-Adviser will provide advice and assistance to the Investment
Adviser as to the determination of the fair value of certain investments where
market quotations are not readily available for purposes of calculating net
asset value of the Fund in accordance with valuation procedures and methods
established by the Trustees.
(g) The Sub-Adviser shall furnish the Adviser and the Board of Trustees
with such information and reports regarding the Fund's investments as the
Adviser deems appropriate or as the Board of Trustees shall reasonably request.
The Sub-Adviser shall make its officers and employees available from time to
time, including attendance at Board of Trustees Meetings, at such reasonable
times as the parties may agree to review investment policies of the Fund and to
consult with the Adviser or the Board of Trustees regarding the investment
affairs of the Fund.
(h) The Sub-Adviser shall not consult with any other sub-adviser to the
Fund or a sub-adviser to a portfolio that is under common control with the Fund
concerning the assets of the Fund, except as permitted by the policies and
procedures of the Fund.
(i) In the performance of its duties, the Sub-Adviser shall be subject to,
and shall perform in accordance with, the following: (i) provisions of the
organizational documents of the Trust that are applicable to the Fund; (ii) the
investment objectives, policies and restrictions of the Fund as stated in the
Fund's currently effective Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information
("SAI") as amended from time to time; (iii) the Investment Company Act of 1940
(the "1940 Act") and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the "Advisers Act");
(iv) any written instructions and directions of the Trustees, the Adviser or
Fund management; and (v) its general fiduciary responsibility to the Fund.
(j) The Sub-Adviser shall assist the Fund in the preparation of its
registration statement, prospectus, shareholder reports, marketing materials and
other regulatory filings, or any amendment or supplement thereto (collectively,
"Regulatory Filings") and shall provide the Fund with disclosure for use in the
Fund's Regulatory Filings, including, without limitation, any requested
disclosure related to the Sub-Adviser's investment management personnel,
portfolio manager compensation, Codes of Ethics, firm description, investment
management strategies and techniques, and proxy voting policies.
(k) The Sub-Adviser shall furnish the Adviser, the Board of Trustees and/or
the Chief Compliance Officer of the Trust and/or the Adviser with such
information, certifications and reports as such persons may reasonably deem
appropriate or may request from the Sub-Adviser regarding the Sub-Adviser's
compliance with Rule 206(4)-7 of the Advisers Act and the Federal Securities
Laws, as defined in Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act. Such information,
certifications and reports shall include, without limitation, those regarding
the Sub-Adviser's compliance with the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, Title V of the
Xxxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Act, the Code of Ethics of the Sub-Adviser and the Trust and
certifications as to the validity of certain information included in the Fund's
Regulatory Filings. The Sub-Adviser shall make its officers and employees
(including its Chief Compliance Officer) available to the Adviser and/or the
Chief Compliance Officer of the Trust and/or the Adviser from time to time to
examine and review the Sub-Adviser's compliance program and its adherence
thereto.
(l) The Sub-Adviser shall, as part of its compliance process, perform
diversification testing under Section 817(h) of the Code based upon its own
records with respect to the Fund assets managed by the Sub-Adviser and report
promptly any failure indicated by such testing to the Adviser, and take any
necessary actions to remedy such failure. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, the Adviser agrees that the official testing for the Fund's compliance
with diversification testing under Section 817(h) of the Code shall be performed
by Adviser, the Fund's custodian or services provider other than the
Sub-Adviser.
2. OTHER AGREEMENTS.
The investment management services provided by the Sub-Adviser under this
Agreement are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Sub-Adviser shall be free to
render similar or different services to others so long as its ability to render
the services provided for in this Agreement shall not be impaired thereby.
3. COMPENSATION TO BE PAID BY THE ADVISER TO THE SUB-ADVISER.
(a) As compensation for the services to be rendered by the Sub-Adviser
under the provisions of this Agreement, the Adviser will pay to the Sub-Adviser
a fee each month based on the average daily net assets of the Fund during the
month. Solely for the purpose of determining the promptness of payments,
payments shall be considered made upon mailing or wiring pursuant to wiring
instructions provided by the Sub-Adviser. Such fee shall be calculated in
accordance with the fee schedule applicable to the Fund as set forth in Schedule
A attached hereto.
(b) The fee shall be paid by the Adviser, and not by the Fund, and without
regard to any reduction in the fees paid by the Fund to the Adviser under its
management contract as a result of any statutory or regulatory limitation on
investment company expenses or voluntary fee reduction assumed by the Adviser.
Such fee to the Sub-Adviser shall be payable for each month within 10 business
days after the end of such month. If the Sub-Adviser shall serve for less than
the whole of a month, the foregoing compensation shall be prorated.
4. REPRESENATIONS.

Fund, or if disclosure is expressly required by applicable federal or state
regulatory authorities or by this Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sub-Adviser shall not disclose to

party agrees in writing with Sub-Adviser to keep such information confidential
and to not engage in trading based upon such information. "Non-public portfolio
holdings" means holdings which have not first been made public by making a
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission which is required to include
such portfolio holdings information.

The Sub-Adviser agrees to respond to any request for approval on a prompt and
timely basis. Failure by the Sub-Adviser to respond within ten (10) calendar

This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the
laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict of law principles, and
the applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 or other federal
laws and regulations which may be applicable. To the extent that the applicable
law of the State of Delaware or any of the provisions herein, conflict with the
applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 or other federal
laws and regulations which may be applicable, the latter shall control.
14. SEVERABILITY/INTERPRETATION.
If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid by a court decision,
statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be
affected thereby. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors. Where the effect
of a requirement of the 1940 Act reflected in any provision of this Agreement is
altered by a rule, regulation or order of the SEC, whether of special or general
application, such provision shall be deemed to incorporate the effect of such
rule, regulation or order.
