XXXX XXXXXXX FUNDS II

SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT

AGREEMENT made as of this 19th day of March, 2010, between Xxxx Xxxxxxx Investment Management Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Adviser"), and American Century Investment Management, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Subadviser").  In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

1. APPOINTMENT OF SUBADVISER

The Subadviser undertakes to act as investment subadviser to, and, subject to the supervision of the Trustees of Xxxx Xxxxxxx Funds II (the "Trust") and the terms of this Agreement, to manage the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Portfolios specified in Appendix A to this Agreement as it shall be amended by the Adviser and the Subadviser from time to time (the "Portfolios").  The Subadviser will be an independent contractor and will have no authority to act for or represent the Trust or Adviser in any way except as expressly authorized in this Agreement or another writing by the Trust and Adviser.

2. SERVICES TO BE RENDERED BY THE SUBADVISER TO THE TRUST

a. Subject always to the direction and control of the Trustees of the Trust, the Subadviser will manage the investments and determine the composition of the assets of the Portfolios in accordance with the Portfolios' registration statement, as amended.  In fulfilling its obligations to manage the investments and reinvestments of the assets of the Portfolios, the Subadviser will:

i. formulate and implement a continuous investment program for each Portfolio consistent with the investment objectives and related investment policies for each such Portfolio as described in the Trust's registration statement, as amended;

ii. take whatever steps are necessary to implement these investment programs by the purchase and sale of securities including the placing of orders for such purchases and sales;

iii. regularly report to the Trustees of the Trust with respect to the implementation of these investment programs; and

iv. provide reasonable assistance to the Trust’s Custodian regarding the fair value of securities held by the Portfolios for which market quotations are not readily available.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that it is not the Subadvisor’s responsibility to fair value securities and that Subadviser will only provide assistance when so requested by the Trust’s Custodian or the Adviser.

b. The Subadviser, at its expense, will furnish (i) all necessary investment and management facilities, including salaries of personnel required for it to execute its duties faithfully, and (ii) administrative facilities, including bookkeeping, clerical personnel and equipment necessary for the efficient conduct of the investment affairs of the Portfolios (excluding determination of net asset value and shareholder accounting services).

c. The Subadviser will select brokers and dealers to effect all transactions subject to the following conditions: The Subadviser will place all necessary orders with brokers, dealers, or issuers, and will negotiate brokerage commissions if applicable.  The Subadviser is directed at all times to seek to execute brokerage transactions for the Portfolios in accordance with such policies or practices as may be established by the Trustees and described in the Trust's registration statement as amended.  The Subadviser may pay a broker-dealer which provides research and brokerage services a higher spread or commission for a particular transaction than otherwise might have been charged by another broker-dealer, if the Subadviser determines that the higher spread or commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services that such broker-dealer provides, viewed in terms of either the particular transaction or the Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to accounts managed by the Subadviser.  The Subadviser may use for the benefit of the Subadviser's other clients, or make available to companies affiliated with the Subadviser or to its directors for the benefit of its clients, any such brokerage and research services that the Subadviser obtains from brokers or dealers.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall require the Subadviser to use a broker that provides such research services or to use a particular broker recommended by the Adviser or the Trustees.

d. On occasions when the Subadviser deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interest of the Portfolio 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 or, if appropriate, cross sales and purchase orders of the securities to be purchased or sold to attempt to obtain a more favorable price or lower brokerage commissions and efficient execution.  In such event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in accordance with its allocation policy.  If any trades are crossed, the Subadviser may charge the Portfolios for customary transfer fees incurred in such cross trades, excluding brokerage commissions or other remuneration paid in connection with the transaction.  A transaction fee charged by a broker or a custodial bank will be considered a customary transfer fee for purposes of this Agreement.

e. The Subadviser will maintain all accounts, books and records with respect to the Portfolios as are required of an investment adviser of a registered investment company pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act") and Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the "Investment Advisers Act") and the rules thereunder.

f. Pursuant to the Trust’s voting policies and procedures as in effect on the date of this Agreement, the Subadviser shall vote proxies relating to the Portfolio’s investment securities in accordance with the proxy voting policies and procedures adopted by the Subadviser in conformance with Rule 206 (4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act.  The Subadviser shall review its proxy voting activities on a periodic basis with the Trustees.

3. COMPENSATION OF SUBADVISER

The Adviser will pay the Subadviser with respect to each Portfolio the compensation specified in Appendix A to this Agreement.

4. LIABILITY OF SUBADVISER

Neither the Subadviser nor any of its directors, officers or employees shall be liable to the Adviser or the Trust for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Adviser or Trust in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates except for losses resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of, or from the reckless disregard of, the duties of the Subadviser or any of its directors.

5. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

It is understood that trustees, officers, agents and shareholders of the Trust are or may be interested in the Subadviser as trustees, officers, partners or otherwise; that employees, agents and partners of the Subadviser are or may be interested in the Trust as trustees, officers, shareholders or otherwise; that the Subadviser may be interested in the Trust; and that the existence of any such dual interest shall not affect the validity hereof or of any transactions hereunder except as otherwise provided in the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the Trust and the Articles of Incorporation of the Subadviser, respectively, or by specific provision of applicable law.

6. REGULATION

The Subadviser shall submit to all regulatory and administrative bodies having jurisdiction over the services provided pursuant to this Agreement any information, reports or other material which any such body by reason of this Agreement may request or require pursuant to applicable laws and regulations.

7. COMPLIANCE

a. The Adviser shall perform quarterly and annual tax compliance tests and promptly furnish reports of such tests to the Subadviser after each quarter end to ensure that the Portfolios are in compliance with Subchapter M and Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).  The Adviser shall apprise the Subadviser promptly after each quarter end of any potential non-compliance with the diversification requirements in such Code provisions.  If so advised, the Subadviser shall take prompt action so that the Portfolios comply with such Code diversification provisions, as directed by the Adviser.  The Adviser also shall inform the Subadviser of any potential non-compliance with the distribution requirements of Code Sections 852(a) and 4982.  If so advised, the Subadviser shall take prompt action so that the Portfolios comply with such Code distribution requirements, as directed by the Adviser.  The Adviser will file the appropriate forms with the Internal Revenue Service when setting up trading accounts for the Portfolios.

b. The Adviser will promptly notify the Subadviser of any proposed change in investment objective or strategy of the Portfolios proposed by the Adviser or any other change that would affect the Subadviser’s obligations hereunder prior to the adoption of any such proposal.  No such change may be imposed without the prior written consent of the Subadviser which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Such consent is not required where such change is required to: (a) comply with applicable law or regulation or (b) to comply with any order of any court of competent jurisdiction.

8. DURATION AND TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

This Agreement shall become effective with respect to each Portfolio on the later of (i) its execution and (ii) the date of the meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Trust, at which meeting this Agreement is approved as described below.  The Agreement will continue in effect for a period more than two years from the date of its execution only so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually either by the Trustees of the Trust or by a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each of the Portfolios, provided that in either event such continuance shall also be approved by the vote of a majority of the Trustees of the Trust who are not interested persons (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of any party to this Agreement cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.  Any required shareholder approval of the Agreement or of any continuance of the Agreement shall be effective with respect to any Portfolio if a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the series (as defined in Rule 18f-2(h) under the Investment Company Act) of shares of that Portfolio votes to approve the Agreement or its continuance, notwithstanding that the Agreement or its continuance may not have been approved by a majority of the outstanding voting securities of (a) any other Portfolio affected by the Agreement or (b) all the portfolios of the Trust.

If any required shareholder approval of this Agreement or any continuance of the Agreement is not obtained, the Subadviser will continue to act as investment subadviser with respect to such Portfolio pending the required approval of the Agreement or its continuance or of a new contract with the Subadviser or a different adviser or subadviser or other definitive action; provided, that the compensation received by the Subadviser in respect of such Portfolio during such period is in compliance with Rule 15a-4 under the Investment Company Act.

This Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by the Trustees of the Trust, by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Trust, or with respect to any Portfolio by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Portfolio, on sixty days' written notice to the Adviser and the Subadviser, or by the Adviser or Subadviser on sixty days' written notice to the Trust and the other party.  This Agreement will automatically terminate, without the payment of any penalty, in the event of its assignment (as defined in the Investment Company Act) or in the event the Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and the Trust terminates for any reason.

APPENDIX A

The Subadviser shall serve as investment subadviser for each Portfolio of the Trust listed below.  The Adviser will pay the Subadviser, as full compensation for all services provided under this Agreement with respect to each Portfolio, the fee computed separately for such Portfolio at an annual rate as follows (the "Subadviser Fee"):

Portfolio	First $200 million of Aggregate Net Assets*	Between $200 million and $400 million of Aggregate Net Assets*	Between $400 million and $1 billion of Aggregate Net Assets*	Excess Over $1 billion of Aggregate Net Assets*
Vista Fund

*The term Aggregate Net Assets includes the net assets of a Portfolio of the Trust.  It also includes with respect to each Portfolio the net assets of one or more other portfolios as indicated below, but in each case only for the period during which the Subadviser for the Portfolio also serves as the subadviser for the other portfolio(s). For purposes of determining Aggregate Net Assets and calculating the Subadviser Fee, the net assets of the Portfolio and each other portfolio of the Trust are determined as of the close of business on the previous business day of the Trust, and the net assets of each portfolio of each other fund are determined as of the close of business on the previous business day of that fund.

Trust Portfolio(s)		Other Portfolio(s)
Vista Fund	--	Vista Trust, a series of Xxxx Xxxxxxx Trust

The Subadviser Fee for a Portfolio shall be based on the applicable annual fee rate for the Portfolio which for each day shall be equal to (i) the sum of the amounts determined by applying the annual percentage rates in the table to the applicable portions of Aggregate Net Assets divided by (ii) Aggregate Net Assets (the “Applicable Annual Fee Rate”). The Subadviser Fee for each Portfolio shall be accrued for each calendar day, and the sum of the daily fee accruals shall be paid monthly to the Subadviser within 30 calendar days of the end of each month.  The daily fee accruals will be computed by multiplying the fraction of one over the number of calendar days in the year by the Applicable Annual Fee Rate, and multiplying this product by the net assets of the Portfolio.  The Adviser shall provide Subadviser with such information as Subadviser may reasonably request supporting the calculation of the fees paid to it hereunder. Fees shall be paid either by wire transfer or check, as directed by Subadviser.

If, with respect to any Portfolio, this Agreement becomes effective or terminates, or if the manner of determining the Applicable Annual Fee Rate changes, before the end of any month, the fee (if any) for the period from the effective date to the end of such month or from the beginning of such month to the date of termination or from the beginning of such month to the date such change, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the full month in which such effectiveness or termination or change occurs.
