SERVICES AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT made as of August 1, 2007 (the "Effective Date"), by and between
WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc. (the "WisdomTree") and WisdomTree Trust, a
Delaware statutory trust (the "Trust"), on behalf of each series of the Trust
(each, a "Fund").
WHEREAS, the Funds desire to retain WisdomTree to render certain services
required by the Funds in the manner and on the terms and conditions hereinafter
set forth;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements of the
parties hereto and hereinafter set forth, the parties covenant and agree as
follows:
1. Provision of Services. Subject to direction of the independent trustees
("Independent Trustees") of the Trust, WisdomTree shall arrange for the
provision of chief compliance officer ("CCO") services to the Trust. WisdomTree
shall assume liability and responsibility for, and shall administer, payments to
the CCO, the Independent Trustees and counsel to the Independent Trustees in
such amounts as the Independent Trustees direct.
2. Services Fee. Each Fund shall pay an annual fee to WisdomTree of up to
0.0044% of average daily net assets (the "Services Fee"). The Services Fee shall
be accrued for each calendar day and the sum of the daily fee accruals shall be
paid monthly in arrears to WisdomTree. Services for periods of less than a month
shall be prorated.
3. Duration, Termination and Amendment. The initial term of this Agreement with
respect to each Fund is for the period from the Effective Date through July 31,
2008. Thereafter, with respect to each Fund, this Agreement will automatically
renew from year to year provided such continuance is specifically approved by a
majority of the Independent Trustees. This Agreement may be terminated by the
Board of Trustees thirty (30) days prior to the next renewal period. This
Agreement shall automatically and immediately terminate with respect to each
Fund if (i) the Adviser no longer serves as investment adviser to such Fund, and
(ii) in the event of its "assignment" (as defined in the Investment Company Act
of 1940). The termination of this Agreement with respect to any one Fund will
not cause its termination with respect to any other Fund.
4. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to its
conflict of law principles) and the applicable provisions of the Investment
Company Act of 1940. To the extent that the applicable laws of the State of
Delaware, or any of the provisions herein, conflict with the applicable
provisions of the 1940 Act, the latter shall control.
5. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding and
agreement of the parties.
