1.
The Fund hereby employs the Investment Adviser, for the period set forth in Paragraph 6 and on the terms set forth herein, to render administrative services to the Fund, subject to the supervision and direction of the Board of Directors of the Fund. The Investment Adviser hereby accepts and agrees, during such period, to render the services and assume the obligations herein set forth, for the compensation provided. The Investment Adviser shall, for all purposes herein, be deemed to be an independent contractor, and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided and authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Fund in any way, or in any way be deemed an agent of the Fund.
2.
As compensation for the services to be rendered to the Fund by the Investment Adviser under the provisions of this agreement, the Fund shall pay to the Investment Adviser an annual fee, payable monthly, of .25% each of the Fund's daily net assets. The fee (.25%) cannot be raised without shareholder approval and this agreement will continue for as long as MH Investment Management Inc. serves as the Investment Adviser to the Fund. The Investment Adviser cannot recover, at some future date, any expenses incurred that are in excess of the .25% annual fee.
3.
It is expressly understood and agreed that the services to be rendered by the Investment Adviser to the Fund under the provisions of this Agreement are not to be deemed to be exclusive, and the Investment Adviser shall be free to render similar or different services to others so long as its ability to render the services provided for in this Agreement shall not be impaired thereby.
4.
The Investment Adviser is obligated to pay all the expenses of the Fund other than the investment advisory fee and the acquired fund fees and expenses. The expenses and salaries incurred by the Fund that are necessary and incidental to the conduct of its business of operating a family of funds will be the responsibility of the Investment Adviser.

This agreement may be terminated at any time upon 60 days prior written notice, without the payment of any penalty, by the Fund's Board of directors or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund.
