For and in consideration of the mutual terms and agreements set forth herein

For and in consideration of the mutual terms and agreements set forth herein
and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, the Trusts and Invesco agree as follows:
1. Invesco agrees that until the expiration date, if any, of the
commitment set forth on the attached Exhibit B occurs, as such Exhibit
B is amended from time to time, Invesco will waive advisory fees
payable by an Investing Fund (defined below) in an amount equal to 100%
of the net advisory fee Invesco receives on the Uninvested Cash
(defined below) from the Affiliated Money Market Fund (defined below)
in which the Investing Fund invests (the "Waiver").
i. Invesco's Fund Accounting Group will calculate, and apply, the
Waiver monthly, based upon the average investment of Uninvested
Cash made by the Investing Fund during the previous month in an
Affiliated Money Market Fund.
ii. The Waiver will not apply to those Investing Funds that do not
charge an advisory fee, either due to the terms of their advisory
agreement, or as a result of contractual or voluntary fee waivers.
iii. The Waiver will not apply to cash collateral for securities
lending.
For purposes of the paragraph above, the following terms shall have the
following meanings:
(a) "Affiliated Money Market Fund" - any existing or future Trust that
holds itself out as a money market fund and complies with Rule
2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended;
(b) "Investing Fund" - any Fund investing Cash Balances and/or Cash
Collateral in an Affiliated Money Market Fund; and
(c) "Uninvested Cash" - cash available and uninvested by a Trust that
may result from a variety of sources, including dividends or
interest received on portfolio securities, unsettled securities
transactions, strategic reserves, matured investments, proceeds
from liquidation of investment securities, dividend payments, or
new investor capital.
2. Neither a Trust nor Invesco may remove or amend the Waiver to a Trust's
detriment prior to requesting and receiving the approval of the Board
of Trustee of the applicable Fund's Trust to remove or amend such
Waiver. Invesco will not have any right to reimbursement of any amount
so waived.
The Boards of Trustees and Invesco may terminate or modify this Memorandum
of Agreement prior to the Expiration Date only by mutual written consent.
Invesco will not have any right to reimbursement of any amount so waived or
reimbursed.
Subject to the foregoing paragraphs, Invesco agrees to review the
then-current waivers for each class of the Funds listed on the Exhibits on a
date prior to the Expiration Date to determine whether such waivers should be
amended, continued or terminated. The waivers will expire upon the Expiration
Date unless the Trusts and Invesco have agreed to continue them. The Exhibits
will be amended to reflect any such agreement.
It is expressly agreed that the obligations of the Trusts hereunder shall
not be binding upon any of the Trustees, shareholders, nominees, officers,
agents or employees of the Trusts personally, but shall only bind the assets
and property of the Funds, as provided in each Trust's Agreement and

Agreement have been authorized by the Trustees of each Trust, and this
Memorandum of Agreement has been executed and delivered by an authorized
officer of each Trust acting as such; neither such authorization by such
Trustees nor such execution and delivery by such officer shall be deemed to
have been made by any of them individually or to impose any liability on any of
them personally, but shall bind only the assets and property of the Funds, as
provided in each Trust's Agreement and Declaration of Trust.

MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT
(EXPENSE LIMITATIONS)
This Memorandum of Agreement is entered into as of the Effective Date on the
attached exhibits (the "Exhibits"), between AIM Counselor Series Trust (Invesco
Counselor Series Trust), AIM Equity Funds (Invesco Equity Funds), AIM Funds
Group (Invesco Funds Group), AIM Growth Series (Invesco Growth Series), AIM

(Invesco Variable Insurance Funds), Invesco Municipal Income Opportunities
Trust, Invesco Quality Municipal Income Trust, Invesco Securities Trust,
Invesco Value Municipal Income Trust and Short-Term Investments Trust (each a
"Trust" or, collectively, the "Trusts"), on behalf of the funds listed on the
Exhibits to this Memorandum of Agreement (the "Funds"), and Invesco Advisers,
Inc. ("Invesco"). Invesco shall and hereby agrees to waive fees or reimburse
expenses of each Fund, on behalf of its respective classes as applicable,
severally and not jointly, as indicated in the attached Exhibits.
For and in consideration of the mutual terms and agreements set forth herein
and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, the Trusts and Invesco agree as follows:
For the Contractual Limits (listed in Exhibits A - D), Invesco agrees until
at least the expiration date set forth on the attached Exhibits A - D (the
"Expiration Date") that Invesco will waive its fees or reimburse expenses to
the extent that expenses of a class of a Fund (excluding (i) interest;
(ii) taxes; (iii) dividend expense on short sales; (iv) extraordinary or
non-routine items, including litigation expenses; and (v) expenses that each
Fund has incurred but did not actually pay because of an expense offset
arrangement, if applicable) exceed the rate, on an annualized basis, set forth
on the Exhibits of the average daily net assets allocable to such class.
Acquired fund fees and expenses are not fees or expenses incurred by a fund
directly but are expenses of the investment companies in which a fund invests.
These fees and expenses are incurred indirectly through the valuation of a
fund's investment in these investment companies. Acquired fund fees and
expenses are required to be disclosed and included in the total annual fund
operating expenses in the prospectus fee table. As a result, the net total
annual fund operating expenses shown in the prospectus fee table may exceed the
expense limits reflected in Exhibits A - D. With regard to the Contractual
Limits, the Board of Trustees of the Trust and Invesco may terminate or modify
this Memorandum of Agreement prior to the Expiration Date only by mutual
written consent. Invesco will not have any right to reimbursement of any amount
so waived or reimbursed.
For the Contractual Limits, Invesco agrees to review the then-current
expense limitations for each class of each Fund listed on the Exhibits on a
date prior to the Expiration Date to determine whether such limitations should
be amended, continued or terminated. The expense limitations will expire upon
the Expiration Date unless the Trusts and Invesco have agreed to continue them.
The Exhibits will be amended to reflect any such agreement.
For the Voluntary Limits (listed in Exhibits A - D), Invesco agrees that
these are not contractual in nature and that Invesco may establish, amend
and/or terminate such expense limitations at any time in its sole discretion
after consultation with the Funds' Boards of Trustees. Any delay or failure by
Invesco to update this Memorandum of Agreement with regards to the
terminations, extensions, or expirations of the Voluntary Limits shall have no
effect on the term of such Voluntary Limitations; the Voluntary Limitations are
listed herein for informational purposes only.
It is expressly agreed that the obligations of each Trust hereunder shall
not be binding upon any of the Trustees, shareholders, nominees, officers,
agents or employees of the Trusts personally, but shall only bind the assets
and property of each Fund, as provided in each Trust's Agreement and
Declaration of Trust. The execution and delivery of this Memorandum of
Agreement have been authorized by the Trustees of the Trusts, and this
Memorandum of Agreement has been executed and delivered by an authorized
officer of the Trusts acting as such; neither such authorization by such
Trustees nor such execution and delivery by such officer shall be deemed to
have been made by any of them individually or to impose any liability on any of
them personally, but shall bind only the assets and property of the Funds, as
provided in each Trust's Agreement and Declaration of Trust.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the Trusts and Invesco have entered into this
Memorandum of Agreement as of the Effective Dates on the attached Exhibits.

series portfolios (such portfolios and any other portfolios hereafter added to
the Trust being referred to collectively herein as the "Funds"); and
WHEREAS, the Trust and the Adviser desire to enter into an agreement to
provide for investment advisory services to the Funds upon the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and

(d) formulate and implement continuing programs for the purchases and
sales of the securities of such issuers and regularly report thereon to the
Board of Trustees; and
(e) take, on behalf of the Trust and the Funds, all actions which appear
to the Trust and the Funds necessary to carry into effect such purchase and
sale programs and supervisory functions as aforesaid, including but not
limited to the placing of orders for the purchase and sale of securities for
the Funds.
3. SECURITIES LENDING DUTIES AND FEES. The Adviser agrees to provide the
following services in connection with the securities lending activities of each
Fund: (a) oversee participation in the securities lending program to ensure
compliance with all applicable regulatory and investment guidelines; (b) assist
the securities lending agent or principal (the "Agent") in determining which
specific securities are available for loan; (c) monitor the Agent to ensure
that securities loans are effected in accordance with the Adviser's
instructions and with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees; (d) prepare
appropriate periodic reports for, and seek appropriate approvals from, the
Board of Trustees with respect to securities lending activities; (e) respond to
Agent inquiries; and (f) perform such other duties as necessary.
As compensation for such services provided by the Adviser in connection with
securities lending activities of each Fund, a lending Fund shall pay the
Adviser a fee equal to 25% of the net monthly interest or fee income retained
or paid to the Fund from such activities.
4. DELEGATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES. The Adviser is authorized to delegate any
or all of its rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement to one or
more sub-advisors, and may enter into agreements with sub-advisors, and may
replace any such sub-advisors from time to time in its discretion, in
accordance with the 1940 Act, the Advisers Act, and rules and regulations
thereunder, as such statutes, rules and regulations are amended from time to
time or are interpreted from time to time by the staff of the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and if applicable, exemptive orders or similar
relief granted by the SEC and upon receipt of approval of such sub-advisors by
the Board of Trustees and by shareholders (unless any such approval is not
required by such statutes, rules, regulations, interpretations, orders or
similar relief).
5. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS. The Adviser and any sub-advisors shall for all
purposes herein be deemed to be independent contractors and shall, unless
otherwise expressly provided or authorized, have no authority to act for or
represent the Trust in any way or otherwise be deemed to be an agent of the
Trust.
6. CONTROL BY BOARD OF TRUSTEES. Any investment program undertaken by the
Adviser pursuant to this Agreement, as well as any other activities undertaken
by the Adviser on behalf of the Funds, shall at all times be subject to any
directives of the Board of Trustees.
7. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS. In carrying out its obligations
under this Agreement, the Adviser shall at all times conform to:
(a) all applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act and
any rules and regulations adopted thereunder;
(b) the provisions of the registration statement of the Trust, as the
same may be amended from time to time under the Securities Act of 1933 and
the 1940 Act;
2
Sub-Item 77 Q 1(e)
(c) the provisions of the Declaration of Trust, as the same may be
amended from time to time;
(d) the provisions of the by-laws of the Trust, as the same may be
amended from time to time; and
(e) any other applicable provisions of state, federal or foreign law.
8. BROKER-DEALER RELATIONSHIPS. The Adviser is responsible for decisions to
buy and sell securities for the Funds, broker-dealer selection, and negotiation
of brokerage commission rates.
(a) The Adviser's primary consideration in effecting a security
transaction will be to obtain the best execution.
(b) In selecting a broker-dealer to execute each particular transaction,
the Adviser will take the following into consideration: the best net price
available; the reliability, integrity and financial condition of the
broker-dealer; the size of and the difficulty in executing the order; and
the value of the expected contribution of the broker-dealer to the
investment performance of the Funds on a continuing basis. Accordingly, the
price to the Funds in any transaction may be less favorable than that
available from another broker-dealer if the difference is reasonably
justified by other aspects of the fund execution services offered.
(c) Subject to such policies as the Board of Trustees may from time to
time determine, the 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 its having caused the Funds to pay a broker or dealer that
provides brokerage and research services to the Adviser an amount of
commission for effecting a fund investment transaction in excess of the
amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for
effecting that transaction, if the Adviser determines in good faith that
such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the
brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in
terms of either that particular transaction or the Adviser's overall
responsibilities with respect to a particular Fund, other Funds of the
Trust, and to other clients of the Adviser as to which the Adviser exercises
investment discretion. The Adviser is further authorized to allocate the
orders placed by it on behalf of the Funds to such brokers and dealers who
also provide research or statistical material, or other services to the
Funds, to the Adviser, or to any sub-advisor. Such allocation shall be in
such amounts and proportions as the Adviser shall determine and the Adviser
will report on said allocations regularly to the Board of Trustees
indicating the brokers to whom such allocations have been made and the basis
therefor.
(d) With respect to one or more Funds, to the extent the Adviser does not
delegate trading responsibility to one or more sub-advisors, in making
decisions regarding broker-dealer relationships, the Adviser may take into
consideration the recommendations of any sub-advisor appointed to provide
investment research or advisory services in connection with the Funds, and
may take into consideration any research services provided to such
sub-advisor by broker-dealers.
3
(e) Subject to the other provisions of this Section 8, the 1940 Act, the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and rules and regulations thereunder, as
such statutes, rules and regulations are amended from time to time or are
interpreted from time to time by the staff of the SEC, any exemptive orders
issued by the SEC, and any other applicable provisions of law, the Adviser
may select brokers or dealers with which it or the Funds are affiliated.
COMPENSATION. The compensation that each Fund shall pay the Adviser is set
forth in Appendix B attached hereto.
9. EXPENSES OF THE FUNDS. All of the ordinary business expenses incurred in
the operations of the Funds and the offering of their shares shall be borne by
the Funds unless specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement. These
expenses borne by the Funds include but are not limited to brokerage
commissions, taxes, legal, accounting, auditing, or governmental fees, the cost
of preparing share certificates, custodian, transfer and shareholder service
agent costs, expenses of issue, sale, redemption and repurchase of shares,
expenses of registering and qualifying shares for sale, expenses relating to
trustees and shareholder meetings, the cost of preparing and distributing
reports and notices to shareholders, the fees and other expenses incurred by
the Trust on behalf of the Funds in connection with membership in investment
company organizations and the cost of printing copies of prospectuses and
statements of additional information distributed to the Funds' shareholders.
10. SERVICES TO OTHER COMPANIES OR ACCOUNTS. The Trust understands that the
Adviser now acts, will continue to act and may act in the future as investment
manager or advisor to fiduciary and other managed accounts, and as investment
manager or advisor to other investment companies, including any offshore
entities, or accounts, and the Trust has no objection to the Adviser so acting,
provided that whenever the Trust and one or more other investment companies or
accounts managed or advised by the Adviser have available funds for investment,
investments suitable and appropriate for each will be allocated in accordance
with a formula believed to be equitable to each company and account. The Trust
recognizes that in some cases this procedure may adversely affect the size of
the positions obtainable and the prices realized for the Funds.
11. NON-EXCLUSIVITY. The Trust understands that the persons employed by the
Adviser to assist in the performance of the Adviser's duties under this
Agreement will not devote their full time to such service and nothing contained
in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or restrict the right of the Adviser
or any affiliate of the Adviser to engage in and devote time and attention to
other businesses or to render services of whatever kind or nature. The Trust
further understands and agrees that officers or directors of the Adviser may
serve as officers or trustees of the Trust, and that officers or trustees of
the Trust may serve as officers or directors of the Adviser to the extent
permitted by law; and that the officers and directors of the Adviser are not
prohibited from engaging in any other business activity or from rendering
services to any other person, or from serving as partners, officers, directors
or trustees of any other firm or trust, including other investment advisory
companies.
12. EFFECTIVE DATE, TERM AND APPROVAL. This Agreement shall become effective
with respect to a Fund, if approved by the shareholders of such Fund, on the
Effective Date for such Fund, as set forth in Appendix A attached hereto. If so
approved, this Agreement shall thereafter continue in force and effect until
June 30, 2013, and may be continued from year to year thereafter, provided that
the continuation of the Agreement is specifically approved at least annually:

Sub-Item 77 Q 1(e)
(a)(i) by the Board of Trustees or (ii) by the vote of "a majority of the
outstanding voting securities" of such Fund (as defined in Section 2(a)(42)
of the 0000 Xxx); and
(b) by the affirmative vote of a majority of the trustees who are not
parties to this Agreement or "interested persons" (as defined in the 0000
Xxx) of a party to this Agreement (other than as trustees of the Trust), by
votes cast in person at a meeting specifically called for such purpose.
14. TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated as to the Trust or as to
any one or more of the Funds at any time, without the payment of any penalty,
by vote of the Board of Trustees or by vote of a majority of the outstanding
voting securities of the applicable Fund, or by the Adviser, on sixty
(60) days' written notice to the other party. The notice provided for herein
may be waived by the party entitled to receipt thereof. This Agreement shall
automatically terminate in the event of its assignment, the term "assignment"
for purposes of this paragraph having the meaning defined in Section 2(a)(4) of
the 1940 Act.
15. AMENDMENT. No amendment of this Agreement shall be effective unless it
is in writing and signed by the party against which enforcement of the
amendment is sought.

bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or duties
hereunder on the part of the Adviser or any of its officers, directors or
employees, the Adviser shall not be subject to liability to the Trust or to the
Funds or to any shareholder of the Funds for any act or omission in the course
of, or connected with, rendering services hereunder or for any losses that may
be sustained in the purchase, holding or sale of any security. Any liability of
the Adviser to one Fund shall not automatically impart liability on the part of
the Adviser to any other Fund. No Fund shall be liable for the obligations of
any other Fund.
17. LIABILITY OF SHAREHOLDERS. Notice is hereby given that, as provided by
applicable law, the obligations of or arising out of this Agreement are not
binding upon any of the shareholders of the Trust individually but are binding
only upon the assets and property of the Trust and that the shareholders shall
be entitled, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to the same
limitation on personal liability as shareholders of private corporations for
profit.
18. NOTICES. Any notices under this Agreement shall be in writing, addressed
and delivered, telecopied or mailed postage paid, to the other party entitled

of such notice. Until further notice to the other party, it is agreed that the
address of the Trust and that of the Advisor shall be 00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx
0000, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000-0000.
19. QUESTIONS OF INTERPRETATION. Any question of interpretation of any term
or provision of this Agreement having a counterpart in or otherwise derived
from a term or provision of the 1940 Act or the Advisers Act shall be resolved
by reference to such term or provision of the 1940 Act or the Advisers Act and
to interpretations thereof, if any, by the United States Courts or in the
absence of any controlling decision of any such court, by rules, regulations or
orders of the SEC issued pursuant to said Acts. In addition, where the effect
of a requirement of the 1940 Act or the Advisers Act reflected in any provision
of this Agreement is revised by rule, regulation or order of the SEC, such
provision shall be deemed to incorporate the effect of such rule, regulation or
order. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws (without reference to conflicts of law
provisions) of the State of Texas.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants
herein contained, it is agreed between the parties hereto as follows:
1. APPOINTMENT. The Adviser hereby appoints each Sub-Adviser as a sub-adviser
of each Fund for the period and on the terms set forth herein. Each Sub-Adviser
accepts such appointment and agrees to render the services herein set forth,
for the compensation herein provided.
2. DUTIES AS SUB-ADVISER. Subject to paragraph 7 below, the Adviser may, in its
discretion, appoint each Sub-Advisor to perform one or more of the following
services with respect to all or a portion of the investments of each Fund. The
services and the portion of the investments of each Fund to be advised or
managed by each Sub-Adviser shall be as agreed upon from time to time by the
Adviser and the Sub-Advisers. Each Sub-Adviser shall pay the salaries and fees
of all personnel of such Sub-Adviser performing services for the Funds related

1
Sub-Item 77 Q 1(e)
(c) Discretionary Investment Management. If and to the extent requested by
the Adviser, each Sub-Adviser shall, subject to the supervision of the Trust's
Board of Trustees (the "Board") and the Adviser, manage all or a portion of the
investments of one or more of the Funds in accordance with the investment
objectives, policies and limitations provided in the Trust's Registration
Statement and such other limitations as the Trust or the Adviser may impose
with respect to such Fund(s) by notice to the applicable Sub-Adviser(s) and
otherwise in accordance with paragraph 5 below. With respect to the portion of
the investments of a Fund under its management, each Sub-Adviser is authorized
to: (i) make investment decisions on behalf of the Fund with regard to any
stock, bond, other security or investment instrument, including but not limited
to foreign currencies, futures, options and other derivatives, and with regard
to borrowing money; (ii) place orders for the purchase and sale of securities

procedures regarding brokerage and trading, which policies and procedures shall
have been approved by the Board. All discretionary investment management and
any other activities of each Sub-Adviser shall at all times be subject to the
control and direction of the Adviser and the Board.
3. BROKER-DEALER RELATIONSHIPS. Each Sub-Adviser agrees that, in placing orders
with brokers and dealers, it will attempt to obtain the best net result in
terms of price and execution. Consistent with this obligation, each Sub-Adviser
may, in its discretion, purchase and sell portfolio securities from and to
brokers and dealers who sell shares of the Funds or provide the Funds, the
Adviser's other clients, or a Sub-Adviser's other clients with research,
analysis, advice and similar services. Each Sub-Adviser may pay to brokers and
dealers, in return for such research and analysis, a higher commission or
spread than may be charged by other brokers and dealers, subject to such
Sub-Adviser determining in good faith that such commission or spread is
reasonable in terms either of the particular transaction or of the overall
responsibility of the Adviser and such Sub-Adviser to the Funds and their other
clients and that the total commissions or spreads paid by each Fund will be
reasonable in relation to the benefits to the Fund over the long term. In no
instance will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to a Sub-Adviser,
or any affiliated person thereof, except in accordance with the applicable
securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder and any exemptive
orders currently in effect. Whenever a Sub-Adviser simultaneously places orders
to purchase or sell the same security on behalf of a Fund and one or more other
accounts advised by such Sub-Adviser, such orders will be allocated as to price
and amount among all such accounts in a manner believed to be equitable to each
account.

records with respect to the securities transactions of the Funds, and will
furnish the Board and the Adviser with such periodic and special reports as the
Board or the Adviser reasonably may request. Each Sub-Adviser hereby agrees

Adviser, and agrees to preserve for the periods prescribed by applicable law
any records which it maintains for the Adviser and which are required to be
maintained, and further agrees to surrender promptly to the Adviser any records
which it maintains for the Adviser upon request by the Adviser.
5. FURTHER DUTIES.
(a) In all matters relating to the performance of this Contract, each
Sub-Adviser will act in conformity with the Agreement and Declaration of Trust,
By-Laws and Registration Statement of the Trust and with the instructions and
directions of the Adviser and the Board and will comply with the requirements
of the 1940 Act, the rules, regulations, exemptive orders and no-action
positions thereunder, and all other applicable laws and regulations.
(b) Each Sub-Adviser shall maintain compliance procedures for the Funds that
it and the Adviser reasonably believe are adequate to ensure compliance with
the federal securities laws (as defined in Rule 38a-1 of the 0000 Xxx) and the
investment objective(s) and policies as stated in the Funds' prospectuses and
statements of additional information. Each Sub-Adviser at its expense will
provide the Adviser or the Trust's Chief Compliance Officer with such
compliance reports relating to its duties under this Contract as may be
requested from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each
2
Sub-Item 77 Q 1(e)
Sub-Adviser will promptly report to the Adviser any material violations of the
federal securities laws (as defined in Rule 38a-1 of the 0000 Xxx) that it is
or should be aware of or of any material violation of the Sub-Adviser's
compliance policies and procedures that pertain to the Funds.
(c) Each Sub-Adviser at its expense will make available to the Board and the
Adviser at reasonable times its portfolio managers and other appropriate
personnel, either in person or, at the mutual convenience of the Adviser and
the Sub-Adviser, by telephone, in order to review the investment policies,
performance and other investment related information regarding the Funds and to
consult with the Board and the Adviser regarding the Funds' investment affairs,
including economic, statistical and investment matters related to the
Sub-Adviser's duties hereunder, and will provide periodic reports to the
Adviser relating to the investment strategies it employs. Each Sub-Adviser and
its personnel shall also cooperate fully with counsel and auditors for, and the
Chief Compliance Officer of, the Adviser and the Trust.
(d) Each Sub-Adviser will assist in the fair valuation of portfolio
securities held by the Funds. The Sub-Adviser will use its reasonable efforts
to provide, based upon its own expertise, and to arrange with parties
independent of the Sub-Adviser such as broker-dealers for the provision of,
valuation information or prices for securities for which prices are deemed by
the Adviser or the Trust's administrator not to be readily available in the
ordinary course of business from an automated pricing service. In addition,
each Sub-Adviser will assist the Funds and their agents in determining whether
prices obtained for valuation purposes accurately reflect market price
information relating to the assets of the Funds at such times as the Adviser
shall reasonably request, including but not limited to, the hours after the
close of a securities market and prior to the daily determination of a Fund's
net asset value per share.
(e) Each Sub-Adviser represents and warrants that it has adopted a code of
ethics meeting the requirements of Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act and the
requirements of Rule 204A-1 under the Advisers Act and has provided the Adviser
and the Board a copy of such code of ethics, together with evidence of its
adoption, and will promptly provide copies of any changes thereto, together
with evidence of their adoption. Upon request of the Adviser, but in any event
no less frequently than annually, each Sub-Adviser will supply the Adviser a
written report that (A) describes any issues arising under the code of ethics
or procedures since the Sub-Adviser's last report, including but not limited to
material violations of the code of ethics or procedures and sanctions imposed
in response to the material violations; and (B) certifies that the procedures
contained in the Sub-Adviser's code of ethics are reasonably designed to
prevent "access persons" from violating the code of ethics.
(f) Upon request of the Adviser, each Sub-Adviser will review draft reports
to shareholders and other documents provided or available to it and provide
comments on a timely basis. In addition, each Sub-Adviser and each officer and
portfolio manager thereof designated by the Adviser will provide on a timely
basis such certifications or sub-certifications as the Adviser may reasonably
request in order to support and facilitate certifications required to be
provided by the Trust's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial
Officer and will adopt such disclosure controls and procedures in support of
the disclosure controls and procedures adopted by the Trust as the Adviser, on
behalf of the Trust, deems are reasonably necessary.
(g) Unless otherwise directed by the Adviser or the Board, each Sub-Adviser
will vote all proxies received in accordance with the Adviser's proxy voting
policy or, if the Sub-Adviser has a proxy voting policy approved by the Board,
the Sub-Adviser's proxy voting policy. Each Sub-Adviser shall maintain and
shall forward to the Funds or their designated agent such proxy voting
information as is necessary for the Funds to timely file proxy voting results
in accordance with Rule 30b1-4 of the 1940 Act.
(h) Each Sub-Adviser shall provide the Funds' custodian on each business day
with information relating to all transactions concerning the assets of the
Funds and shall provide the Adviser with such information upon request of the
Adviser.
6. SERVICES NOT EXCLUSIVE. The services furnished by each Sub-Adviser hereunder
are not to be deemed exclusive and such Sub-Adviser shall be free to furnish
similar services to others so long as its services under this Contract are not
impaired thereby. Nothing in this Contract shall limit or restrict the
3
Sub-Item 77 Q 1(e)
right of any director, officer or employee of a Sub-Adviser, who may also be a
Trustee, officer or employee of the Trust, to engage in any other business or
to devote his or her time and attention in part to the management or other
aspects of any other business, whether of a similar nature or a dissimilar
nature.
7. USE OF SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES. Each Sub-Adviser may perform any or all
of the services contemplated hereunder, including but not limited to providing
investment advice to the Funds pursuant to paragraph 2(a) above and placing
orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities or other investments
for the Funds pursuant to paragraph 2(b) above, directly or through such of its
subsidiaries or other affiliates, including each of the other Sub-Advisers, as
such Sub-Adviser shall determine; provided, however, that performance of such
services through such subsidiaries or other affiliates shall have been
approved, when required by the 1940 Act, by (i) a vote of a majority of the
independent Trustees who are not parties to this Contract or "interested
persons" (as defined in the 0000 Xxx) of a party to this Contract, other than
as Board members ("Independent Trustees"), cast in person at a meeting called
for the purpose of voting on such approval, and/or (ii) a vote of a majority of
that Fund's outstanding voting securities.
8. COMPENSATION.
(a) The only fees payable to the Sub-Advisers under this Contract are for
providing discretionary investment management services pursuant to paragraph
2(c) above. For such services, the Adviser will pay each Sub-Adviser a fee,
computed daily and paid monthly, equal to (i) 40% of the monthly compensation
that the Adviser receives from the Trust pursuant to its advisory agreement
with the Trust, multiplied by (ii) the fraction equal to the net assets of such
Fund as to which the Sub-Adviser shall have provided discretionary investment
management services pursuant to paragraph 2(c) above for that month divided by
the net assets of such Fund for that month. This fee shall be payable on or
before the last business day of the next succeeding calendar month. This fee
shall be reduced to reflect contractual or voluntary fee waivers or expense
limitations by the Adviser, if any, in effect from time to time as set forth in
paragraph 9 below. In no event shall the aggregate monthly fees paid to the
Sub-Advisers under this Contract exceed 40% of the monthly compensation that
the Adviser receives from the Trust pursuant to its advisory agreement with the
Trust, as reduced to reflect contractual or voluntary fee waivers or expense
limitations by the Adviser, if any.
(b) If this Contract becomes effective or terminates before the end of any
month, the fees for the period from the effective date to the end of the month
or from the beginning of such month to the date of termination, 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 occurs.
(c) If a Sub-Adviser provides the services under paragraph 2(c) above to a
Fund for a period that is less than a full month, the fees for such period
shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the
applicable full month.
9. FEE WAIVERS AND EXPENSE LIMITATIONS. If, for any fiscal year of a Fund, the
amount of the advisory fee which such Fund would otherwise be obligated to pay
to the Adviser is reduced because of contractual or voluntary fee waivers or
expense limitations by the Adviser, the fee payable to each Sub-Adviser
pursuant to paragraph 8 above shall be reduced proportionately; and to the
extent that the Adviser reimburses the Fund as a result of such expense
limitations, such Sub-Adviser shall reimburse the Adviser that proportion of
such reimbursement payments which the fee payable to each Sub-Adviser pursuant
to paragraph 8 above bears to the advisory fee under this Contract.
10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF SUB-ADVISER AND INDEMNIFICATION. No Sub-Adviser
shall be liable for any costs or liabilities arising from any error of judgment
or mistake of law or any loss suffered by a Fund or the Trust in connection
with the matters to which this Contract relates except a loss resulting from
willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of such
Sub-Adviser in the performance by such Sub-Adviser of its duties or from
reckless disregard by such Sub-Adviser of its obligations and duties under this
Contract. Any person, even though also an officer, partner, employee, or agent
of a Sub-Adviser, who may be or become a Trustee, officer, employee or agent of
the Trust, shall be deemed,
4
Sub-Item 77 Q 1(e)
when rendering services to a Fund or the Trust or acting with respect to any
business of a Fund or the Trust, to be rendering such service to or acting
solely for the Fund or the Trust and not as an officer, partner, employee, or
agent or one under the control or direction of such Sub-Adviser even though
paid by it.
11.DURATION AND TERMINATION.
(a) This Contract shall become effective with respect to each Sub-Adviser
upon the later of the date hereabove written and the date that such Sub-Adviser
is registered with the SEC as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act, if
a Sub-Adviser is not so registered as of the date hereabove written; provided,
however, that this Contract shall not take effect with respect to any Fund
unless it has first been approved (i) by a vote of a majority of the
Independent Trustees, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of
voting on such approval, and (ii) by vote of a majority of that Fund's
outstanding voting securities, when required by the 0000 Xxx.
(b) Unless sooner terminated as provided herein, this Contract shall
continue in force and effect until June 30, 2009. Thereafter, if not
terminated, with respect to each Fund, this Contract shall continue
automatically for successive periods not to exceed twelve months each, provided
that such continuance is specifically approved at least annually (i) by a vote
of a majority of the Independent Trustees, cast in person at a meeting called
for the purpose of voting on such approval, and (ii) by the Board or by vote of
a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Fund(s) or any
Sub-Adviser(s), this Contract may be terminated at any time, without the
payment of any penalty, (i) by vote of the Board or by a vote of a majority of
the outstanding voting securities of such Fund(s) on sixty days' written notice
to such Sub-Adviser(s); or (ii) by the Adviser on sixty days' written notice to
such Sub-Adviser(s); or (iii) by a Sub-Adviser on sixty days' written notice to
the Trust. Should this Contract be terminated with respect to a Sub-Adviser,
the Adviser shall assume the duties and responsibilities of such Sub-Adviser
unless and until the Adviser appoints another Sub-Adviser to perform such
duties and responsibilities. Termination of this Contract with respect to one
or more Fund(s) or Sub-Adviser(s) shall not affect the continued effectiveness
of this Contract with respect to any remaining Fund(s) or Sub-Adviser(s). This
Contract will automatically terminate in the event of its assignment.
12. AMENDMENT. No provision of this Contract may be changed, waived, discharged
or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party
against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is
sought, and, when required by the 1940 Act, no amendment of this Contract shall
be effective until approved by vote of a majority of the Fund's outstanding
voting securities.
13. NOTICES. Any notices under this Contract shall be in writing, addressed and
delivered, telecopied or mailed postage paid, to the other party entitled to
receipt thereof at such address as such party may designate for the receipt of
such notice. Until further notice to the other party, it is agreed that the
address of the Trust and the Adviser shall be 00 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx 000,
Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000-0000. Until further notice to the other party, it is
agreed that the address of each Sub-Adviser shall be set forth in Exhibit B
attached hereto.
14. GOVERNING LAW. This Contract shall be construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of Texas and the 1940 Act. To the extent that the applicable laws
of the State of Texas conflict with the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act,
the latter shall control.
15. MULTIPLE SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS. This Contract has been signed by multiple
parties; namely the Adviser, on one hand, and each Sub-Adviser, on the other.
The parties have signed one document for administrative convenience to avoid a
multiplicity of documents. It is understood and agreed that this document shall
constitute a separate sub-advisory agreement between the Adviser and each
Sub-Adviser with respect to each Fund, as if the Adviser and such Sub-Adviser
had executed a separate sub-advisory agreement naming such Sub-Adviser as a
sub-adviser to each Fund. With respect to any one Sub-Adviser, (i) references
in this Contract to "a Sub-Adviser" or to "each Sub-Adviser" shall be deemed to
refer only to such Sub-Adviser, and (ii) the term "this Contract" shall be
construed according to the foregoing provisions.
5
Sub-Item 77 Q 1(e)
16. MISCELLANEOUS. The captions in this Contract are included for convenience
of reference only and in no way define or delimit any of the provisions hereof
or otherwise affect their construction or effect. If any provision of this
Contract shall be held or made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or
otherwise, the remainder of this Contract shall not be affected thereby. This
Contract shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors. Any question of interpretation of any
term or provision of this Contract having a counterpart in or otherwise derived
from a term or provision of the 1940 Act or the Advisers Act shall be resolved
by reference to such term or provision of the 1940 Act or the Advisers Act and
to interpretations thereof, if any, by the United States Courts or in the
absence of any controlling decision of any such court, by rules, regulations or
orders of the SEC issued pursuant to said Acts. In addition, where the effect
of a requirement of the 1940 Act or the Advisers Act reflected in any provision
of the Contract is revised by rule, regulation or order of the SEC, such
provision shall be deemed to incorporate the effect of such rule, regulation or
order.
