Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement, dated May 1, 2013, among Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (“Columbia”), sub-adviser to Voya Multi-Manager Large Cap Core Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), Voya Investors Trust (“VIT”), and Directed Services LLC (“DSL”), the sub-advisory fee rate payable by DSL to Columbia on behalf of the Portfolio was reduced on May 1, 2013. On November 18, 2014, Columbia executed a new Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement, dated May 1, 2013, among The London Company of Virginia, LLC (“London”), sub-adviser to the Portfolio, VIT, and DSL, the sub-advisory fee rate payable by DSL to London remains the same as that payable by DSL to the Portfolio’s previous sub-adviser, Pioneer Investment Management, Inc., effective as of May 1, 2013. On November 18, 2014, London executed a new Sub-Advisory Agreement.
By our execution of this letter agreement, we hereby notify you of our intention to lower the annual management fee for the Portfolio with a corresponding reduction based upon the aggregate blended sub-advisory fee of all sub-advisory fee rates for the Portfolio (the “Reduction”), for the period from May 1, 2016 through May 1, 2017. The Reduction shall be calculated as follows:
Reduction = 50% x (aggregate blended sub-advisory fee rate computed based on all sub-advisory fee rates for the Portfolio prior to May 1, 2013 – the aggregate blended sub-advisory fee rate computed based on all sub-advisory fee rates after May 1, 2013)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, termination or modification of this letter agreement requires approval by the Board of Trustees of the Registrant.
