FUND ACCOUNTING AGREEMENT
COMPENSATION SCHEDULE
DELAWARE INVESTMENTS FAMILY OF FUNDS
EFFECTIVE AS OF MAY 16, 2002
Fee Schedule for The Delaware Group of Funds
Part 1 -- Fees for Existing Portfolios
Existing Portfolios are those so designated on Schedule A to the Fund Accounting
Agreement between Delaware Service Company, Inc. and the Delaware Group of Funds
dated as of August 19, 1996 ("Agreement").
Annual Asset Based Fees
First $10 Billion of Aggregate
Complex Net Assets 2.5 Basis Points
Aggregate Complex Net Assets
over $10 Billion 2.0 Basis Points
Annual asset based fees will be charged at a rate of 2.5 basis points for the
first $10 Billion of Aggregate Complex Net Assets. Aggregate Complex Net Assets
over $10 Billion will be charged at a rate of 2.0 basis points. These fees will
be charged to a Portfolio on an aggregated pro rated basis.
Annual Minimum Fees
Domestic Equity Portfolio $35,000
Domestic Fixed Income Portfolio $45,000
International Series Portfolio $70,000
Per Class of Share Fee $ 4,000
There is an annual minimum fee that will be charged only if the annual asset
based fee is less than the calculation for the minimum fee. This fee is based on
the type and the number of classes per Portfolio. For an equity Portfolio
$35,000 will be charged; for a fixed income Portfolio $45,000 will be charged,
and for an international Portfolio $70,000 will be charged. For each class of
shares, $4,000 will be charged, such amount to be prorated over a period of less
than a year for any classes added after April 30, 1996. A total of all minimum
fees will be compared to the total asset based fee to determine which fee is
higher and, subsequently, will be used to bill the Companies.
Part 2 -- Fees for New Portfolios
For each Portfolio designated as a New Portfolio on Schedule A to the Agreement,
there will be a fee of 2.0 basis points, providing that the Delaware complex net
assets are above $10 Billion (the rate would be 2.5 basis points if under $10
Billion and then 2.0 basis points once the net assets cross $10 Billion), or an
annual minimum fee calculated in the manner described above, whichever is
higher. This new fee would be added to the total of Existing Portfolio fees and
then pro rated. Fees shall not be charged for New Portfolios included on
Schedule A until such Portfolios shall have commenced operations.
Part 3 -- Sharing Facilities
In the conduct of the business of the parties to this Agreement and in the
performance of this Agreement, each party will bear its allocable portion of
expenses common to each.
