WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Portfolio Manager to

writing, whereupon such series shall become a Fund hereunder, and be subject to

2. Portfolio Management Duties. Subject to the supervision of the
---------------------------
Trust's Board of Trustees and the Adviser, the Portfolio Manager will provide a
continuous investment program for the Funds and determine the composition of the
assets of the Funds, including determination of the purchase, retention, or sale
of the securities, cash, and other investments for the Funds. The Portfolio
Manager will provide investment research and analysis, which may consist of
computerized investment methodology, and will conduct a continuous program of
evaluation, investment, sales, and reinvestment of the Funds' assets by
determining the securities and other investments that shall be purchased,
entered into, sold, closed, or exchanged for the Funds, when these transactions
should be executed, and what portion of the assets of each Fund should be held
in the various securities and other investments in which it may invest, and the
Portfolio Manager is hereby authorized to execute and perform such services on
behalf of each Fund. To the extent permitted by the investment policies of the
Funds, the Portfolio Manager shall make decisions for the Funds as to foreign
currency matters and make determinations as to the retention or disposition of
foreign currencies or securities or other instruments denominated in foreign
currencies, or derivative instruments based upon foreign currencies, including
forward foreign currency contracts and options and futures on foreign currencies
and shall execute and
- 2 -
perform the same on behalf of each Fund. The Portfolio Manager will provide the
services under this Agreement in accordance with the Funds' investment objective
or objectives, investment policies, and investment restrictions as stated in the
Trust's Registration Statement filed on Form N-1A with the SEC, as supplemented
or amended from time to time, copies of which shall be sent to the Portfolio
Manager by the Adviser. In performing these duties, the Portfolio Manager:
(a) Shall conform with the 1940 Act and all rules and regulations
thereunder, all other applicable federal and state laws and
regulations, with any applicable procedures adopted by the Trust's
Board of Trustees, and with the provisions of the Trust's Registration
Statement filed on Form N-1A, as supplemented or amended from time to
time.
(b) Shall use reasonable efforts to manage the Funds so that they
qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the
Internal Revenue Code.
(c) Is responsible, in connection with its responsibilities under this
Section 2, for decisions to buy and sell securities and other
investments for the Funds, for broker-dealer and futures commission
merchant ("FCM") selection, and for negotiation of commission rates.
The Portfolio Manager's primary consideration in effecting a security
or other transaction will be to obtain the best execution for the
Funds, taking into account the factors specified in the Prospectus and
Statement of Additional Information for the Trust, as they may be
amended or supplemented from time to time.
Subject to such policies as the Board of Trustees may determine and
consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
the Portfolio Manager 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 Funds to pay a broker or
dealer, acting as agent, for effecting a portfolio transaction at a
price in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer
would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Portfolio
Manager 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 or dealer, viewed in terms of either
that particular transaction or the Portfolio
- 3 -
Manager's overall responsibilities with respect to the Fund and to its
other clients as to which it exercises investment discretion. To the
extent consistent with these standards, and in accordance with Section
11(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 11a2-(T)
thereunder, and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations,
the Portfolio Manager is further authorized to allocate the orders
placed by it on behalf of the Funds to the Portfolio Manager if it is
registered as a broker or dealer with the SEC, to its affiliate that
is registered as a broker or dealer with the SEC, or to such brokers
and dealers that also provide research or statistical research and
material, or other services to the Funds or the Portfolio Manager.
Such allocation shall be in such amounts and proportions as the
Portfolio Manager shall determine consistent with the above standards,
and, upon request, the Portfolio Manager will report on said
allocation to the Adviser and Board of Trustees of the Trust,
indicating the brokers or dealers to which such allocations have been
made and the basis therefor.
(d) May, on occasions when the purchase or sale of a security is
deemed to be in the best interest of a Fund as well as any other
investment advisory clients, to the extent permitted by applicable
laws and regulations, but shall not be obligated to, aggregate the
securities to be so sold or purchased with those of its other clients
where such aggregation is not inconsistent with the policies set forth
in the Registration Statement. 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 Portfolio Manager in a manner
that is fair and equitable in the judgment of the Portfolio Manager in
the exercise of its fiduciary obligations to the Trust and to such
other clients.
(e) Will, in connection with the purchase and sale of securities for
each Fund, arrange for the transmission to the custodian for the Trust
on a daily basis, such confirmation, trade tickets, and other
documents and information, including, but not limited to, Cusip,
Sedol, or other numbers that identify securities to be purchased or
sold on behalf of the Funds, as may be reasonably necessary to enable
the custodian to perform its administrative and recordkeeping
responsibilities
- 4 -
with respect to the Fund, and, with respect to portfolio securities to
be purchased or sold through the Depository Trust Company, will
arrange for the automatic transmission of the confirmation of such
trades to the Trust's custodian.
(f) The Portfolio Manager will assist the custodian and recordkeeping
agent for the Trust in determining or confirming, consistent with the
procedures and policies stated in the Registration Statement for the
Trust, the value of any portfolio securities or other assets of the
Fund for which the custodian and recordkeeping agent seeks assistance
from the Portfolio Manager or identifies for review by the Portfolio
Manager.
(g) Will make available to the Trust and Adviser, promptly upon
request, any of the Funds' investment records and ledgers as are
necessary to assist the Trust to comply with requirements of the 1940
Act and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as well as other
applicable laws, and will furnish to regulatory authorities having the
requisite authority any information or reports in connection with such
services which may be requested in order to ascertain whether the
operations of the Trust are being conducted in a manner consistent
with applicable laws and regulations.
(h) Will regularly report to the Trust's Board of Trustees on the
investment program for the Fund and the issuers and securities
represented in the Funds, and will furnish the Trust's Board of
Trustees with respect to the Funds such periodic and special reports
as the Trustees may reasonably request.
(i) The Portfolio Manager shall be responsible for making reasonable
inquiries and for reasonably ensuring that any employee of the
Portfolio Manager has not, to the best of the Portfolio Manager's
knowledge:
(i) been convicted, in the last ten (10) years, of any felony or
misdemeanor involving the purchase or sale of any security or
arising out of such person's conduct as an underwriter, broker,
dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer,
government securities broker, government securities dealer,
transfer agent, or entity or person required to be registered

entity or person required to be registered under the Commodity
