In performing the services described in paragraph (b) above, the SUB-ADVISER shall use its best efforts to obtain for the Covered Fund(s) the best execution of portfolio transactions. Subject to approval by the XX XX Board of Trustees of appropriate policies and procedures, the SUB-ADVISER may cause the Covered Fund(s) to pay to a broker a commission, for effecting a portfolio transaction, in excess of the commission another broker would have charged for effecting the same transaction, if the first broker provided brokerage and/or research services to the SUB-ADVISER. The SUB-ADVISER shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully, or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement, or otherwise, solely by reason of acting in accordance with such authorization. If applicable, in accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder, and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations, including Section 17(e) of the 1940 Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the SUB-ADVISER may engage its affiliates or any other subadviser to the Covered Fund(s) and its respective affiliates, VALIC and its affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures commission merchants to effect Fund transactions in securities and other investments for a Covered Fund(s). | ||
The SUB-ADVISER shall maintain records adequately demonstrating compliance with its obligations under this Agreement and report periodically to VALIC and the XX XX Board of Trustees regarding the performance of its services under this Agreement. The SUB-ADVISER will make available to VALIC and XX XX promptly upon their reasonable written request all of the Covered Fund(s)’s investment records and ledgers to assist VALIC and XX XX in compliance with respect to each Covered Fund’s securities transactions as required by the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act, as well as other applicable laws. The SUB-ADVISER will furnish the XX XX Board of Trustees such periodic and special reports as VALIC and the XX XX Board of Trustees may reasonably request. The SUB-ADVISER will furnish to regulatory authorities any information or reports in connection with such services which may be requested in order to ascertain whether the operations of the Covered Fund(s) are being conducted in a manner consistent with applicable laws and regulations. The SUB-ADVISER will not disclose or use any records or information obtained pursuant to this Agreement in any manner whatsoever except as expressly authorized in this Agreement, and will keep confidential any non-public information obtained directly as a result of this |
2
service relationship, and the SUB-ADVISER shall disclose such non-public information only if VALIC or the XX XX Board of Trustees has authorized such disclosure, or if such information is or hereafter otherwise is known by the SUB-ADVISER or has been disclosed, directly or indirectly, by VALIC or XX XX to others becomes ascertainable from public or published information or trade sources, or if such disclosure is expressly required or requested by applicable federal or state regulatory authorities, or to the extent such disclosure is reasonably required by auditors or attorneys of the SUB-ADVISER in connection with the performance of their professional services or as may otherwise be contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the SUB-ADVISER may disclose the total return earned by the Covered Fund(s) and may include such total return in the calculation of composite performance information without prior approval by VALIC or the XX XX Board of Trustees. | ||
Should VALIC at any time make any definite determination as to any investment policy and notify the SUB-ADVISER in writing of such determination, the SUB-ADVISER shall be bound by such determination for the period, if any, specified in such notice or until similarly notified that such determination has been revoked, provided such determination will permit SUB-ADVISER to comply with the first paragraph of this Section. | ||
The SUB-ADVISER will not hold money or investments on behalf of the Covered Fund(s). The money and investments will be held by the Custodian of the Covered Fund(s). The SUB-ADVISER will arrange for the transmission to the Custodian for the Covered Fund(s), on a daily basis, such confirmation, trade tickets and other documents as may be necessary to enable it to perform its administrative responsibilities with respect to the Covered Fund(s). The SUB-ADVISER further shall have the authority to instruct the custodian of the Covered Fund(s) (i) to pay cash for securities and other property delivered to the Custodian for the Covered Fund(s) (ii) to deliver securities and other property against payment for the Covered Fund(s), and (iii) to transfer assets and funds to such brokerage accounts as the SUB-ADVISER may designate, all consistent with the powers, authorities and limitations set forth herein. The SUB-ADVISER shall not have the authority to cause the Custodian to deliver securities and other property except as expressly provided for in this Agreement. | ||
The SUB-ADVISER may aggregate sales and purchase orders of securities held by the Covered Fund(s) with similar orders being made simultaneously for other accounts managed by the SUB-ADVISER or with accounts of the affiliates of the SUB-ADVISER, if in the SUB-ADVISER’s reasonable judgment such aggregation shall result in an overall economic benefit to the Covered Fund(s) considering the advantageous selling or purchase price, brokerage commission and other expenses. In accounting for such aggregated order price, commission and other expenses shall be averaged on a per bond or share basis daily. VALIC acknowledges that the determination of such economic benefit to the Covered Fund(s) by the SUB-ADVISER is subjective and represents the SUB-ADVISER’s evaluation that the Covered Fund(s) is benefited by relatively better purchase or sales prices, lower commission expenses and beneficial timing of transactions or a combination of these and other factors. | ||
The SUB-ADVISER shall for all purposes herein be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise provided or authorized, have no authority to act or represent VALIC or XX XX other than in furtherance of the SUB-ADVISER’s duties and responsibilities as set forth in this Agreement. | ||
Except as otherwise agreed, or as otherwise provided herein, the SUB-ADVISER shall bear the expense of discharging its responsibilities hereunder and VALIC shall pay, or arrange for others to pay, all VALIC’s expenses, except that VALIC shall in all events pay the compensation described in Section 2 of the Agreement. VALIC and the SUB-ADVISER acknowledge that the Covered Fund(s) will be ultimately responsible for all brokerage commissions, taxes, custodian fees and any other transaction-related fees, but that, for the purposes of this Agreement, as between VALIC and the SUB-ADVISER, VALIC will be responsible for such expenses, and VALIC authorizes the SUB-ADVISER to incur and pay such expenses for the Covered Fund(s), as deemed appropriate by the SUB-ADVISER. | ||
The SUB-ADVISER also represents and warrants that in furnishing services hereunder, the SUB-ADVISER will not consult with any other sub-adviser of the Covered Fund(s) or other series of XX XX, to the extent any other sub-advisers are engaged by VALIC, or any other sub-advisers to other investment |
3
companies that are under common control with XX XX, concerning transactions of the Covered Fund(s) in securities or other assets, other than for purposes of complying with the conditions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of rule 12d3-1 under the 1940 Act. | ||
2. | Compensation of the SUB-ADVISER | |
VALIC shall pay to the SUB-ADVISER, as compensation for the services rendered and expenses paid by the SUB-ADVISER, a monthly fee or fees based on each Covered Fund’s average monthly net asset value computed for each Covered Fund as provided for herein and in the fee schedule attached hereto as Schedule A. Schedule A may be amended from time to time, provided that amendments are made in conformity with applicable laws and regulations and the XX XX Declaration and Bylaws. Any change in Schedule A pertaining to any new or existing Covered Fund(s) shall not be deemed to affect the interest of any other Covered Fund(s) and shall not require the approval of shareholders of any other Covered Fund(s). | ||
The average monthly net asset value shall be determined by taking the mean average of all of the determinations of net asset value, made in the manner provided in the XX XX Declaration, for each business day during a given calendar month. VALIC shall pay this fee for each calendar month as soon as practicable after the end of that month, but in any event no later than ten (10) business days following the end of the month. | ||
If the SUB-ADVISER serves for less than a whole month, the foregoing compensation shall be prorated. | ||
The payment of advisory fees related to the services of the SUB-ADVISER under this Agreement shall be the sole responsibility of VALIC and shall not be the responsibility of the Covered Fund(s). | ||
Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 2 to the contrary, the SUB-ADVISER hereby acknowledges and agrees that for the term of this Agreement all compensation earned by the SUB-ADVISER under this Agreement will be held in an interest-bearing escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) with the Covered Fund’s custodian, or such other bank as VALIC and the SUB-ADVISER may agree, pending the occurrence of one of the following events: |
(a) A “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of a Covered Fund (as
defined in the 0000 Xxx) approves the proposed definitive investment
sub-advisory agreement between VALIC and the SUB-ADVISER by the end of the
150 day maximum term of this Agreement (the “Approval Event”); or
(b) A “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of the Fund (as
defined in the 0000 Xxx) does not approve the proposed definitive investment
sub-advisory agreement between VALIC and the SUB-ADVISER by the end of the
150 day maximum term of this Agreement.
If the Approval Event occurs, then the amount in the Escrow Account (including any interest earned) will be paid to the SUB-ADVISER. If the Approval Event does not occur, then upon termination of this Agreement, the SUB-ADVISER will be promptly paid, out of the Escrow Account, the lesser of (i) any costs incurred in performing this Agreement (plus any interest earned on that amount while in escrow); or (ii) the total amount in the Escrow Account (plus any interest earned), and any remaining balance in such Escrow Account will be paid to the Covered Fund. The SUB-ADVISER acknowledges its agreement with the compensation limitations imposed by this Section and hereby waives any and all claims at law or in equity to any amount of compensation more than is specifically provided for in this Section. | ||
3. | Scope of the SUB-ADVISER’s Activities | |
VALIC understands that the SUB-ADVISER and its affiliates now act, will continue to act and may act in the future as investment adviser to fiduciary and other managed accounts and as investment adviser to other investment companies, and VALIC has no objection to the SUB-ADVISER so acting, provided that whenever a Covered Fund and one or more other accounts or investment companies advised by the SUB- |
4
ADVISER have available funds for investment, investments suitable and appropriate for each will be allocated in accordance with a methodology believed to be equitable to each entity. The SUB-ADVISER similarly agrees to allocate opportunities to sell securities. VALIC recognizes that, in some cases, this procedure may limit the size of the position that may be acquired or sold for a Covered Fund(s). In addition, VALIC understands that the persons employed by the SUB-ADVISER to assist in the performance of the SUB-ADVISER’s duties hereunder will not devote their full time to such service and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict the right of the SUB-ADVISER or any affiliate of the SUB-ADVISER to engage in and devote time and attention to other business or to render services of whatever kind or nature. | ||
Except as otherwise required by the 1940 Act, any of the shareholders, directors, officers and employees of VALIC may be a shareholder, director, officer or employee of, or be otherwise interested in, the SUB-ADVISER, and in any person controlling, controlled by or under common control with the SUB-ADVISER; and the SUB-ADVISER, and any person controlling, controlled by or under common control with the SUB-ADVISER, may have an interest in VALIC. | ||
The SUB-ADVISER shall not be liable to VALIC, XX XX, the Covered Fund(s), or to any shareholder in the Covered Fund(s), and VALIC shall indemnify the SUB-ADVISER, for any act or omission in rendering services under this Agreement, or for any losses sustained in connection with the matters to which this agreement relates, so long as there has been no willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of obligations or duties on the part of the SUB-ADVISER in performing its duties under this Agreement. | ||
VALIC shall perform quarterly and annual tax compliance tests and promptly furnish reports of such tests to the SUB-ADVISER after each quarter end to ensure that the Covered Fund(s) is in compliance with Subchapter M of the Code and Section 817(h) of the Code. VALIC shall apprise the SUB-ADVISER promptly after each quarter end of any potential non-compliance with the diversification requirements in such Code provisions. If so advised, the SUB-ADVISER shall take prompt action so that VCII complies with such Code diversification provisions, as directed by VALIC. | ||

6
The SUB-ADVISER is authorized to honor and act on any notice, instruction or confirmation given by VALIC on behalf of the Covered Fund(s) in writing signed or sent by any of the persons whose names, addresses and specimen signatures will be provided by VALIC from time to time. The SUB-ADVISER shall not be liable for so acting in good faith upon such instructions, confirmation or authority, notwithstanding that it shall subsequently be shown that the same was not given or signed or sent by an authorized person. | ||
VALIC agrees to furnish the SUB-ADVISER at its principal office prior to use thereof, copies of all prospectuses, proxy statements, reports to shareholders, sales literature, or other material prepared for distribution to interest holders of the Covered Fund(s) or the public that refer in any way to the SUB-ADVISER, and not to use such material if the SUB-ADVISER reasonably objects in writing within ten (10) business days (or such other time as may be mutually agreed) after receipt thereof.

VALIC agrees to indemnify the SUB-ADVISER for losses, costs, fees, expenses and claims which arise directly or indirectly (i) as a result of a failure by VALIC to provide the services or furnish materials required under the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) as the result of any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any registration statements, proxy materials, reports, advertisements, sales literature, or other materials pertaining to the Covered Fund(s), except insofar as any such statement or omission was specifically made in reliance on written information provided by the SUB-ADVISER to VALIC, where the untrue statement was not reasonably knowable to be untrue by VALIC at the time made. | ||
