Ladies and Gentlemen:
By this letter dated May 1, 2021, we have agreed to waive a portion of the management fee payable to us under the Investment Management Agreement, dated May 1, 2017, between Voya Investments, LLC and Voya Investors Trust (the "Agreement"), with respect to VY® Clarion Real Estate Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a series of Voya Investors Trust, indicated in the table below. By this letter, we agree to waive that fee for the period from May 1, 2021 through May 1, 2022.
This waiver (the "Waiver") is "outside" the Portfolio's expense limit arrangements under a separate expense limitation agreement (the "ELA"). This means that the Waiver does not reduce the Portfolio's net operating expense ratio before the ELA is applied. The waiver is deducted after the ELA is applied. However, with respect to any share class of the Portfolio that has a 0.00% expense limit, the Waiver cannot further reduce the 0.00% net expense ratio experienced by shareholders with respect to that share class.
Voya Investments, LLC acknowledges that any fees waived during the term of this Agreement shall not be eligible for recoupment at any time in the future.
