THIS AGREEMENT is between American Skandia Investment Services, Incorporated and Prudential Investments LLC (the
"Investment Manager") and Deutsche Asset Management, Inc. (the "Sub-Adviser").
W I T N E S S E T H
- - - - - - - - - -
WHEREAS, American Skandia Advisor Funds, Inc. (the "Company") is a Maryland corporation organized with one or
more series of shares and is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "ICA"); and
WHEREAS, the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser each is an investment adviser registered under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Advisers Act"); and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Directors") have engaged the Investment Manager to act as
investment manager for the XXXX XxXX International Equity Fund (the "Fund"), one series of the Company, under
the terms of a management agreement, dated May 1, 2003, with the Company (the "Management Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, the Investment Manager, acting pursuant to the Management Agreement, wishes to engage the Sub-Adviser,
and the Directors have approved the engagement of the Sub-Adviser, to provide investment advice and other
investment services set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser agree as follows:
1. Investment Services. The Sub-Adviser will formulate and implement a continuous investment program for
--------------------
the Fund conforming to the investment objective, investment policies and restrictions of the Fund as set forth in
the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information of the Company as in effect from time to time (together,
the "Registration Statement"), the Articles of Incorporation and By-laws of the Company, and any investment
guidelines or other instructions received by the Sub-Adviser in writing from the Investment Manager from time to
time. Any amendments to the foregoing documents will not be deemed effective with respect to the Sub-Adviser
until the Sub-Adviser's receipt thereof. The appropriate officers and employees of the Sub-Adviser will be
available to consult with the Investment Manager, the Company and the Directors at reasonable times and upon
reasonable notice concerning the business of the Company, including valuations of securities which are not
registered for public sale, not traded on any securities market or otherwise may be deemed illiquid for purposes
of the ICA; provided it is understood that the Sub-Adviser is not responsible for daily pricing of the Fund's
assets.
Subject to the supervision and control of the Investment Manager, which in turn is subject to the
supervision and control of the Directors, the Sub-Adviser in its discretion will determine which issuers and
securities will be purchased, held, sold or exchanged by the Fund or otherwise represented in the Fund's
investment portfolio from time to time and, subject to the provisions of paragraph 3 of this Agreement, will
place orders with and give instructions to brokers, dealers and others for all such transactions and cause such
transactions to be executed. Custody of the Fund will be maintained by a custodian bank (the "Custodian") and
the Investment Manager will authorize the Custodian to honor orders and instructions by employees of the
Sub-Adviser designated by the Sub-Adviser to settle transactions in respect of the Fund. No assets may be
withdrawn from the Fund other than for settlement of transactions on behalf of the Fund except upon the written
authorization of appropriate officers of the Company who shall have been certified as such by proper authorities
of the Company prior to the withdrawal.
The Sub-Adviser will not be responsible for the provision of administrative, bookkeeping or accounting
services to the Fund except as specifically provided herein, as required by the ICA or the Advisers Act or as may
be necessary for the Sub-Adviser to supply to the Investment Manager, the Fund or the Fund's shareholders the
information required to be provided by the Sub-Adviser hereunder. Any records maintained hereunder shall be the
property of the Fund and surrendered promptly upon request.
In furnishing the services under this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser will comply with and use its best
efforts to enable the Fund to conform to the requirements of: (i) the ICA and the regulations promulgated
thereunder; (ii) Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder; (iii)
other applicable provisions of state or federal law; (iv) the Articles of Incorporation and By-laws of the
Company; (v) policies and determinations of the Company and the Investment Manager provided to the Sub-Adviser in
writing; (vi) the fundamental and non-fundamental investment policies and restrictions applicable to the Fund, as
set out in the Registration Statement of the Company in effect, or as such investment policies and restrictions
from time to time may be amended by the Fund's shareholders or the Directors and communicated to the Sub-Adviser
in writing; (vii) the Registration Statement; and (viii) investment guidelines or other instructions received in
writing from the Investment Manager. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sub-Adviser shall have no responsibility
to monitor compliance with limitations or restrictions for which information from the Investment Manager or its
authorized agents is required to enable the Sub-Adviser to monitor compliance with such limitations or
restrictions unless such information is provided to the Sub-adviser in writing. The Sub-Adviser shall supervise
and monitor the activities of its representatives, personnel and agents in connection with the investment program
of the Fund.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be implied to prevent the Investment Manager from engaging other
sub-advisers to provide investment advice and other services to the Fund or to series or portfolios of the
Company for which the Sub-Adviser does not provide such services, or to prevent the Investment Manager from
providing such services itself in relation to the Fund or such other series or portfolios. The Sub-Advisor and
the Investment Manager understand and agree that if the Investment Manager manages the Fund in a
"manager-of-managers" style, the Investment Manager will, among other things, (i) continually evaluate the
performance of the Sub-Advisor through quantitative and qualitative analysis and consultations with the
Sub-Advisor, (ii) periodically make recommendations to the Company's Board as to whether the contract with one or
more sub-advisors should be renewed, modified or terminated, and (iii) periodically report to the Company's Board
regarding the results of its evaluation and monitoring functions. The Sub-Advisor recognizes that its services
may be terminated or modified pursuant to this process.
The Sub-Advisor acknowledges that the Investment Manager and the Company intend to rely on Rules 17a-10
and 10f-3 under the ICA, and the Sub-Advisor hereby agrees that it shall not consult with any other Sub-Advisor
to the Fund or the Company with respect to transactions in securities for the Fund's portfolio or any other
transactions of Fund assets. The Sub-Advisor further acknowledges that it shall not consult with any other
sub-advisor of the Fund that is a principal underwriter or an affiliated person of a principal underwriter with
respect to transactions in securities for the Fund's portfolio or any other transactions of Fund assets, and that
its investment advisory responsibilities as set forth in this Agreement are limited to such discrete portion of
the Fund's portfolio as determined by the Investment Manager.
The Sub-Adviser shall be responsible for the preparation and filing of Schedule 13G and Form 13F on
behalf of the Fund. The Sub-Adviser shall not be responsible for the preparation or filing of any other reports
required of the Fund by any governmental or regulatory agency, except as expressly agreed in writing.
2. Investment Advisory Facilities. The Sub-Adviser, at its expense, will furnish all necessary investment
-------------------------------
facilities, including salaries of personnel, required for it to execute its duties hereunder.
3. Execution of Fund Transactions. In connection with the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the
-------------------------------
Fund, the Sub-Adviser is responsible for the selection of broker-dealers to execute purchase and sale
transactions for the Fund in conformity with the policy regarding brokerage as set forth in the Registration
Statement, or as the Directors may determine from time to time, as well as the negotiation of brokerage
commission rates with such executing broker-dealers. Generally, the Sub-Adviser's primary consideration in
placing Fund investment transactions with broker-dealers for execution will be to obtain, and maintain the
availability of, best execution at the best available price.
Consistent with this policy, the Sub-Adviser, in selecting broker-dealers and negotiating brokerage
commission rates, will take all relevant factors into consideration, including, but not limited to: the best
price available; the reliability, integrity and financial condition of the broker-dealer; the size of and
difficulty in executing the order; and the value of the expected contribution of the broker-dealer to the
investment performance of the Fund on a continuing basis. Subject to such policies and procedures as the
Directors may determine, the Sub-Adviser shall have discretion to effect investment transactions for the Fund
through broker-dealers (including, to the extent permissible under applicable law, broker-dealers affiliated with
the Sub-Adviser) qualified to obtain best execution of such transactions who provide brokerage and/or research
services, as such services are defined in section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"1934 Act"), and to cause the Fund to pay any such broker-dealers an amount of commission for effecting a
portfolio investment transaction in excess of the amount of commission another broker-dealer would have charged
for effecting that transaction, if the Sub-Adviser determines in good faith that such amount of commission is
reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage or research services provided by such broker-dealer, viewed
in terms of either that particular investment transaction or the Sub-Adviser's overall responsibilities with
respect to the Fund and other accounts as to which the Sub-Adviser exercises investment discretion (as such term
is defined in section 3(a)(35) of the 1934 Act). Allocation of orders placed by the Sub-Adviser on behalf of the
fund to such broker-dealer shall be in such amounts and proportions as the Sub-Adviser shall determine in good
faith in conformity with its responsibilities under applicable laws, rules and regulations. The Sub-Adviser will
submit reports on such allocations to the Investment Manager regularly as requested by the Investment Manager, in
such form as may be mutually agreed to by the parties hereto, indicating the broker-dealers to whom such
allocations have been made and the basis therefor.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 3, the Sub-Adviser may also consider sales of
shares in the Fund and recommendations by the Investment Manager in the selection of broker-dealers to effect the
Fund's investment transactions. Notwithstanding the above, nothing shall require the Sub-Adviser to use a
broker-dealer which provides research services or to use a particular broker-dealer which the Investment Manager
has recommended.
4. Reports by the Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser shall furnish the Investment Manager monthly, quarterly and
--------------------------
annual reports, as may reasonably be requested by the Investment Manager concerning the transactions,
performance, and compliance of the Fund so that the Investment Manager may review such matters and discuss the
management of the Fund. The Sub-Adviser shall permit the books and records maintained with respect to the Fund
to be inspected and audited by the Company, the Investment Manager or their respective agents at all reasonable
times during normal business hours upon reasonable notice. The Sub-Adviser shall immediately notify both the
Investment Manager and the Company of any legal process served upon it in connection with its activities
hereunder, including any legal process served upon it on behalf of the Investment Manager, the Fund or the
Company. The Sub-Adviser shall promptly notify the Investment Manager of (1) any changes in any information
regarding the Sub-Adviser or the investment program for the Fund disclosed in the Company's Registration
Statement, or (2) any violation of any requirement, provision, policy or restriction that the Sub-advisor is
required to comply with under Section 1 of this Agreement.
5. Compensation of the Sub-Adviser. The amount of the compensation to the Sub-Adviser is computed at an
---------------------------------
annual rate. The fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, based on the average daily net assets of the Fund for
each month, at the annual rate set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement.
In computing the fee to be paid to the Sub-Adviser, the net asset value of the Fund shall be valued as
set forth in the Registration Statement. If this Agreement is terminated, the payment described herein shall be
prorated to the date of termination.
The Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser shall not be considered as partners or participants in a
joint venture. The Sub-Adviser will pay its own expenses for the services to be provided pursuant to this
Agreement and will not be obligated to pay any expenses of the Investment Manager, the Fund or the Company.
Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Investment Manager, the Fund and the Company will not be
obligated to pay any expenses of the Sub-Adviser.
6. Delivery of Documents to the Sub-Adviser. The Investment Manager has furnished the Sub-Adviser with

8. Confidential Treatment. The parties hereto understand that any information or recommendation supplied
-----------------------
by the Sub-Adviser in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder is to be regarded as
confidential and for use only by the Investment Manager, the Company or such persons the Investment Manager may
designate in connection with the Fund. The parties also understand that any information supplied to the
Sub-Adviser in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder, particularly, but not limited to,
any list of securities which may not be bought or sold for the Fund, is to be regarded as confidential and for
use only by the Sub-Adviser in connection with its obligation to provide investment advice and other services to
the Fund.
9. Representations of the Parties. Each party hereto hereby further represents and warrants to the other
-------------------------------
that: (i) it is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act and is registered or licensed as an

licensed; and (ii) it will use its reasonable best efforts to maintain each such registration or license in
effect at all times during the term of this Agreement; and (iii) it will promptly notify the other if it ceases
to be so registered, if its registration is suspended for any reason, or if it is notified by any regulatory

10. Liability. In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard for
---------
its obligations hereunder, the Sub-Adviser shall not be liable to the Company, the Fund, the Fund's shareholders
or the Investment Manager for any act or omission resulting in any loss suffered by the Company, the Fund, the
Fund's shareholders or the Investment Manager in connection with any service to be provided herein. The Federal
laws impose responsibilities under certain circumstances on persons who act in good faith, and therefore, nothing
herein shall in any way constitute a waiver or limitation of any rights which the Company, the Fund or the
Investment Manager may have under applicable law.
11. Other Activities of the Sub-Adviser. The Investment Manager agrees that the Sub-Adviser and any of its
-------------------------------------
partners or employees, and persons affiliated with the Sub-Adviser or with any such partner or employee, may
render investment management or advisory services to other investors and institutions, and that such investors
and institutions may own, purchase or sell, securities or other interests in property that are the same as,
similar to, or different from those which are selected for purchase, holding or sale for the Fund. The
Investment Manager further acknowledges that the Sub-Adviser shall be in all respects free to take action with
respect to investments in securities or other interests in property that are the same as, similar to, or
different from those selected for purchase, holding or sale for the Fund. The Investment Manager understands
that the Sub-Adviser shall not favor or disfavor any of the Sub-Adviser's clients or class of clients in the
allocation of investment opportunities, so that to the extent practical, such opportunities will be allocated
among the Sub-Adviser's clients over a period of time on a fair and equitable basis. Nothing in this Agreement
shall impose upon the Sub-Adviser any obligation (i) to purchase or sell, or recommend for purchase or sale, for
the Fund any security which the Sub-Adviser, its partners, affiliates or employees may purchase or sell for the
Sub-Adviser or such partner's, affiliate's or employee's own accounts or for the account of any other client of
the Sub-Adviser, advisory or otherwise, or (ii) to abstain from the purchase or sale of any security for the
Sub-Adviser's other clients, advisory or otherwise, which the Investment Manager has placed on the list provided
pursuant to paragraph 6(g) of this Agreement.
12. Continuance and Termination. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for one year from the
-----------------------------
date hereof, and is renewable annually thereafter by specific approval of the Directors or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund. Any such renewal shall be approved by the vote of a majority
of the Directors who are not interested persons under the ICA, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose
of voting on such renewal. This Agreement may be terminated without penalty at any time by the Investment
Manager or the Sub-Adviser upon 60 days written notice, and will automatically terminate in the event of (i) its
"assignment" by either party to this Agreement, as such term is defined in the ICA, subject to such exemptions as
may be granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission by rule, regulation or order, or (ii) upon termination
of the Management Agreement, provided the Sub-Adviser has received prior written notice thereof.
13. Notification. The Sub-Adviser will notify the Investment Manager within a reasonable time of any change
------------
in the personnel of the Sub-Adviser with responsibility for making investment decisions in relation to the Fund
(the "Portfolio Manager(s)") or who have been authorized to give instructions to the Custodian. The Sub-adviser
shall be responsible for reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Investment Manager, the Fund
or the Company to amend or supplement the Company's prospectus to reflect a change in Portfolio Manager(s) or
otherwise to comply with the ICA, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") or any other applicable
statute, law, rule or regulation, as a result of such change; provided, however, that the Sub-Adviser shall not
be responsible for such costs and expenses where the change in Portfolio Manager(s) reflects the termination of
employment of the Portfolio Manager(s) with the Sub-Adviser and its affiliates or is the result of a request by
the Investment Manager or is due to other circumstances beyond the Sub-Adviser's control.
