AGREEMENT made as of the 9th day of January, 2006 by and among Sun Capital Advisers LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Investment Adviser"), Sun Capital Advisers Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the "Trust"), on behalf of its series, SC Xxxxxxxxxxx Main Street Small Cap Fund (the "Fund"), and OppenheimerFunds, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the "Subadviser").
WHEREAS, the Trust is an open-end, management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and the Fund is a series of the Trust;
WHEREAS, the Investment Adviser and the Subadviser are investment advisers registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Advisers Act");
WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of the Investment Advisory Agreement dated May 1, 2000 between the Investment Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, the Investment Adviser may delegate any or all of its portfolio management responsibilities under that agreement to one or more subadvisers;
WHEREAS, the Investment Adviser has selected the Subadviser to act as a sub-investment adviser of the Fund and to provide certain other services, as more fully set forth below, and the Subadviser is willing to act as such sub-investment adviser and to perform such services under the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Investment Adviser, the Trust and the Subadviser agree as follows:
1. Investment Advisory and Management Services. The Investment Adviser hereby appoints the Subadviser to serve as subadviser to the Fund and the Subadviser hereby accepts such appointment. Subject to the supervision of the Investment Adviser, Subadviser will regularly provide the Fund with investment advice and investment management services concerning the investments of the Fund. The Subadviser will determine what securities shall be purchased, held or sold by the Fund and what portion of the Fund's assets shall be held uninvested in cash and cash equivalents, subject always to the provisions of the Trust's Declaration of Trust and By-laws and the 1940 Act, and to the investment objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to the Fund (including, without limitation, the requirements of Subchapters L and M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) (the "Code"), as each of the same shall be from time to time in effect or set forth in the Fund's Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, as well as any other investment guidelines or policies the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board" or "Trustees") or the Investment Adviser may from time to time establish and deliver in writing to the Subadviser.
(a) To carry out such determinations the Subadviser will exercise full discretion, subject to the preceding paragraph, and act for the Fund in the same manner and with the same force and effect as the Trust might or could do with respect to purchases, sales or other transactions, as well as with respect to all other things necessary or incidental to the furtherance or conduct of such purchases, sales or other transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subadviser shall, upon written instructions from the Investment Adviser, effect such portfolio transactions for the Fund as the Investment Adviser may from time to time direct. Such instructions will be given in reasonable circumstances, including, without limitation, any termination of this Agreement, but will not include ongoing directed brokerage instructions for the Fund.
(b) The Subadviser will also make its officers and employees available to meet with the officers of the Investment Adviser and the Trust's officers and Trustees as reasonably requested on due notice to review the investments and investment program of the Fund in the light of current and prospective economic and market conditions. From time to time as the Board of Trustees of the Trust or the Investment Adviser may reasonably request, the Subadviser will furnish to the Investment Adviser and Trust's officers and to each of its Trustees, at the Subadviser's expense, reports on portfolio transactions and reports on issues of securities held by the Fund, all in such detail as the Trust or the Investment Adviser may reasonably request.
(c) Unless and until otherwise directed in writing by the Investment Adviser or the Trust's officers or Board and subject to the receipt of all necessary voting materials, the Subadviser will be responsible for voting or abstaining from all proxies, including taking action with respect to corporate action elections for proxies and voluntary corporate actions communicated by the Fund or its agents to the Subadviser, with respect to the securities held by the Fund in accordance with the Trust's proxy voting procedures.
(d) The Subadviser shall maintain all books and records required by Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act relating to its responsibilities provided hereunder with respect to the Fund, and shall preserve such records for the periods and in a manner prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act. The Subadviser shall permit the Investment Adviser, the Fund's officers and its independent public accountants to inspect and audit such records at reasonable times during normal business hours upon due notice.
(e) If any occasion should arise in which the Subadviser gives any advice to its clients concerning the shares of the Fund, the Subadviser will act solely as investment counsel for such clients and not in any way on behalf of the Fund. The Subadviser's services to the Fund pursuant to this Agreement are not to be deemed to be exclusive, and it is understood that the Subadviser may render investment advice, management and other services to others.
(f) The Subadviser is prohibited from consulting with any other subadviser to any other series of the Trust concerning the Fund's transactions in securities or other assets, except for the purpose of complying with the conditions of Rule 12d3-1(a) and (b) under the 1940 Act.
(g) The Subadviser makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, that any level of performance or investment results will be achieved by the Fund, whether on a relative or absolute basis.
(h) In performing its obligations under this Agreement, the Subadviser may reasonably rely upon information provided to it by the Trust or on behalf of the Trust by the Investment Adviser, the Trust's custodian or other agent in connection with the Subadviser's performance of its duties under this Agreement, and will not independently verify the accuracy or completeness of such information. The Subadviser shall not be liable for any loss, claim or damages related to such reasonable reliance. For the purposes of this provision, "Subadviser" shall include any officer, director, employee, or agent of the Subadviser.
(i) Each of the Trust and the Investment Adviser may reasonably rely upon information provided to it by the Subadviser in connection with the Subadviser's performance of its duties under the Agreement, and will not independently verify the accuracy or completeness of such information. Neither the Trust nor the Investment Adviser shall be liable for any loss, claim or damages related to such reasonable reliance. For the purposes of this provision, "Trust" and "Investment Adviser" shall include any officer, director, employee, or agent of the Trust or the Investment Adviser
2. Expenses. The Subadviser will bear its own costs of providing services hereunder. The Subadviser will not be responsible for expenses of the Investment Adviser or the Fund, including, but not limited to, the following: the Fund's legal, auditing and accounting expenses; expenses of maintenance of the Fund's books and records other than those required to be maintained by the Subadviser, including computation of the Fund's daily net asset value per share and dividends; interest, taxes, governmental fees and membership dues incurred by the Fund; fees of the Fund's custodian, transfer agent, registrar or other agents; expenses of preparing the Fund's share certificates; expenses relating to the redemption or repurchase of the Fund's shares; expenses of registering and qualifying Fund shares for sale under applicable federal and state laws; expenses of preparing, setting in print, printing and distributing prospectuses, reports, notices and dividends to Fund investors (except that the Subadviser will be responsible for costs associated with supplements to such documents and all regulatory filing requirements necessitated by a change of control of the Subadviser or any change in the portfolio manager or managers assigned by the Subadviser to manage the Fund); cost of Fund stationery; costs of Trustee, shareholder and other meetings of the Trust or Fund (except that the Subadviser will be responsible for costs associated with any shareholder meeting, or any information statement prepared and distributed in lieu of a shareholder meeting, necessitated by a change of control of the Subadviser); traveling expenses of officers, trustees and employees of the Trust or Fund; fees of the Trust's trustees and salaries of any officers or employees of the Trust or Fund; and the Fund's pro rata portion of premiums on any fidelity bond and other insurance covering the Trust or Fund and their officers and trustees.
3. Compensation of Subadviser. As compensation for all investment advisory and management services to be rendered hereunder, the Investment Adviser will pay the Subadviser an annual fee, computed daily and paid quarterly in arrears, which varies in accordance with the net asset value of the Fund. The annual subadvisory fee is expressed as a percent of the average daily net assets of the Fund as follows:
ASSET LEVEL FEE RATE
All assets 0.40%
For any period less than a full fiscal quarter during which this Agreement is in effect, the fee shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to a full fiscal quarter. The Subadviser's fee shall be payable solely by the Investment Adviser. The Fund shall have no responsibility for such fee.
For purposes hereof, the value of net assets of the Fund shall be computed in the manner specified in the Fund's Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for the computation of the value of the net assets of the Fund in connection with the determination of net asset value of its shares. On any day that the net asset value determination is suspended as specified in the Fund's Prospectus, the net asset value for purposes of calculating the advisory fee shall be calculated as of the date last determined.
4. Obligations of the Investment Adviser.
(a) The Investment Adviser shall provide (or cause the Trust's custodian to provide) timely information to the Subadviser regarding such matters as the composition of assets in the Fund, cash requirements and cash available for investment in the Fund, and all other information as may be reasonably necessary for the Subadviser to perform its responsibilities hereunder.
(b) The Investment Adviser has furnished the Subadviser a copy of the prospectus and statement of additional information of the Fund and agrees during the continuance of this Agreement to furnish the Subadviser copies of any revisions or supplements thereto at, or, if practicable, before the time the revisions or supplements become effective. The Investment Adviser agrees to furnish the Subadviser with copies of any financial statements or reports made by the Fund to its shareholders, and any further materials or information which the Subadviser may reasonably request to enable it to perform its functions under this Agreement.
5. Brokerage Transactions.
(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 5 and absent instructions from the Investment Adviser or the Trust, the Subadviser will have full discretionary authority to place orders for the purchase and sale of securities for the account of the Fund with such brokers or dealers or futures commission merchants (collectively "broker-dealers") as it may select. The Subadviser shall select broker-dealers, which may include broker-dealers who are affiliated persons of the Fund within the meaning of the 1940 Act, to effect the Fund's portfolio transactions on the basis of its estimate of their ability to obtain best execution (prompt and reliable execution at the most favorable security price obtainable) of particular and related portfolio transactions. The abilities of a broker-dealer to obtain best execution of particular portfolio transaction(s) will be judged by the Subadviser on the basis of all relevant factors and considerations including, insofar as feasible: the execution capabilities required by the transaction or transactions; the ability and willingness of the broker-dealer to facilitate the Fund's portfolio transactions by participating therein for its own account; the importance to the Fund of speed, efficiency or confidentiality; the broker-dealer's apparent familiarity with sources from or to whom particular securities might be purchased or sold; as well as any other matters relevant to the selection of a broker-dealer for particular and related transactions of the Fund.
(b) The Subadviser shall have discretion, in the interests of the Fund, to allocate brokerage on the Fund's portfolio transactions to broker-dealers, other than affiliated broker-dealers, qualified to obtain best execution of such transactions who provide brokerage and/or research services (as such services are defined in Section 28(e)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) for the Fund and/or other accounts for which the Subadviser or its affiliates exercise "investment discretion" (as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(35) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and to cause the Fund to pay such broker-dealers a commission for effecting a portfolio transaction for the Fund that is in excess of the amount of commission another broker-dealer adequately qualified to effect such transaction would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser determines, in good faith, that such commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and/or research services provided by such broker-dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the overall responsibilities of the Subadviser or its affiliates with respect to the accounts as to which they exercise investment discretion. The Subadviser is authorized to exercise such discretion subject to applicable laws and regulations and review by the Investment Adviser and the Trust's Board of Trustees from time to time with respect to the extent and continuation of this practice.
(c) On occasions when the Subadviser deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interests of the Fund as well as other clients of the Subadviser, the Subadviser, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, may, but shall be under no obligation to, aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased in order to obtain the most favorable price or lower brokerage commissions and efficient execution. In such event, allocation of securities so sold or purchased, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in the manner the Subadviser considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to the Fund and to such other clients. The Subadviser will make information regarding such allocations available for review at the request of the Investment Adviser, the Fund or the Trust's Board of Trustees.
(d) In connection with purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the account of the Fund, neither the Subadviser nor any of its affiliated persons, will act as a principal or agent or receive directly or indirectly any compensation in connection with the purchase or sale of investment securities by the Fund, except as permitted by applicable law and with the express written consent of the Trust and the Investment Adviser.
(e) The Subadviser will advise the Fund's custodian and the Investment Adviser on a prompt basis of each purchase and sale of a portfolio security, specifying the name of the issuer, the description and amount or number of shares of the security purchased or sold, the market price, commission and gross or net price, trade date, settlement date and identity of the effecting broker or dealer, and such other information as may be reasonably required.
6. Standard of Care and Liability of Subadviser. The Subadviser will not be liable for any loss sustained by reason of the adoption of any investment policy or the purchase, sale, or retention of any security on the recommendation of the Subadviser, whether or not such recommendation shall have been based upon its own investigation and research or upon investigation and research made by any other individual, firm or corporation, if such recommendation shall have been made and such other individual, firm, or corporation shall have been selected, with due care and in good faith; but nothing herein contained will be construed to protect the Subadviser against any liability to the Investment Adviser, the Fund or its shareholders by reason of: (a) the Subadviser's causing the Fund to be in violation of any applicable federal or state law, rule or regulation or any investment policy or restriction set forth in the Fund's prospectus or Statement of Additional Information or any written guidelines or instruction provided in writing by the Trust's Board of Trustees or the Investment Adviser, (b) the Subadviser's causing the Fund to fail to satisfy the diversification requirements of Section 817(h) of Subchapter L of the Code, or the diversification or source of income requirements of Subchapter M of the Code, or (c) the Subadviser's willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence generally in the performance of its duties hereunder or its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.
The Subadviser will indemnify and hold harmless the Investment Adviser, its affiliated persons and the Fund (collectively, the "Indemnified Persons") to the fullest extent permitted by law against any and all loss, damage, judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and attorneys fees incurred by any Indemnified Person to the extent resulting, in whole or in part, from any of the Subadviser's acts or omissions specified in (a), (b) or (c) above, any breach of any duty or warranty hereunder of the Subadviser or any inaccuracy of any representation of the Subadviser made hereunder, provided, however, that nothing herein contained will provide indemnity to any Indemnified Person for liability resulting from its own willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or reckless disregard of such duties.
The Investment Adviser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Subadviser to the fullest extent permitted by law against any and all loss, damage, judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and attorneys fees incurred by the Subadviser to the extent resulting, in whole or in part, from (x) the Investment Adviser's willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence generally in the performance of its duties hereunder or its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement and (y) any breach of any duty or warranty hereunder of the Investment Adviser or any inaccuracy of any representation of the Investment Adviser made hereunder, provided, however, that nothing herein contained will provide indemnity to the Subadviser for liability resulting from its own willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or reckless disregard of such duties.
Neither the Investment Adviser nor the Subadviser shall be obligated to make any indemnification payment in respect of any settlement as to which it has not been notified and consented, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
7. Term and Termination. This Agreement shall remain in force until December 31, 2007 and from year to year thereafter, but only so long as such continuance, and the continuance of the Investment Adviser as investment adviser of the Fund, is specifically approved at least annually by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Subadviser or the Investment Adviser of the Fund, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval and by a vote of the Board of Trustees or of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund.
