hereof, Chubb Investment, with the approval of the Board of Directors of the
Fund, may contract with one or more Subadvisers to perform any of the
investment management services required by the Fund, and may contract with one
or more Subadvisers or other parties to perform any of the administrative
services required of Chubb Investment hereunder; provided, however, that the
compensation of such other parties will be the sole responsibility of Chubb
Investment and the duties and responsibilities of such other Subadviser or other
parties shall be set forth in an agreement or agreements between Chubb
Investment and such other parties.
3
Chubb Investment shall exercise reasonable care in recommending,
monitoring, and supervising the performance of Subadviser and others serving
pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, but Chubb Investment shall not otherwise be
liable or legally responsible for the conduct of any Subadviser. In this
connection, it shall be a particular responsibility of Chubb Investment to
evaluate the investment performance of Subadviser and that of potential
Subadviser, and Chubb Investment shall supply the Board of Directors of the Fund
with such statistical and research data bearing on each Portfolio's performance
and that of Subadviser and potential Subadviser as they and Chubb Investment
deem necessary. It shall also be a particular responsibility of Chubb Investment
to supervise and monitor the practices of Subadviser in placing orders and
selecting brokers and dealers to effect Portfolio transactions and in
negotiating commission rates with them, and the services provided by such
brokers and dealers.
It also is understood that Chubb Investment, at its expense, will enter
into an agreement with Chubb America Service Corporation, a New Hampshire
corporation, pursuant to which Chubb Investment will obtain from said
corporation most staff, facilities and services necessary to meet its
obligations hereunder. Entering into said agreement shall in no way diminish any
obligation or liability of Chubb Investment hereunder.
3. (a) Purchase and Sale of Assets. Nothing in this Investment Management
Agreement shall preclude the combining of orders for the sale or purchase of
securities or other investments with other accounts managed by Chubb Investment,
provided that Chubb Investment does not favor any account over any other account
and provided further that any purchase or sale orders executed contemporaneously
shall be allocated in a manner that Chubb Investment deems to be equitable to
all accounts involved and, under normal circumstances, such transactions will be
(1) done on a pro rata basis substantially in proportion to the amounts ordered
by each account, (2) entered into only if, in Chubb Investment's opinion, the
trade is likely to produce a benefit for the Portfolio, and (3) is at a price
which is approximately the same for all parties involved. Neither Chubb
Investment, nor any of its directors, officers, or employees, nor any person,
firm, or corporation controlling, controlled by or under common control with it
shall act as a principal or receive any commission as agent in connection with
the purchase or sale of assets for the Portfolios.
(b) Brokerage Fees. In placing orders for the purchase or sale of
investments for the Portfolios, in the name of the Portfolio or their nominees,
Chubb Investment shall use its best efforts to obtain for the Portfolios the
most favorable price and best execution available, considering all of the
circumstances, and shall maintain records adequate to demonstrate compliance
with this requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, and subject to
appropriate policies and procedures as then approved by the Board of Directors
of the Fund, Chubb Investment may, to the extent authorized by Section 28(e) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, cause the Fund to pay a broker or dealer
that provides research or other brokerage services to Chubb Investment and the
Fund with respect to the Portfolio an amount of commission for effecting a
portfolio transaction in excess of the amount of commission another broker or
dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if Chubb Investment
determines in good faith that such amount of commission is reasonable in
relationship to the value of such services, viewed in terms of that particular
transaction or Chubb Investment's
4
overall responsibilities to the Portfolios or its other advisory clients. To the
extent authorized by said Section 28(e) and the Fund's Board of Directors, Chubb
Investment shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached any
duty created by this Investment Management Agreement or otherwise solely by
reason of such action.
4. Compensation of Chubb Investment. Except as hereinafter provided,
for the services rendered and expenses assumed by Chubb Investment, while this
Investment Management Agreement is in effect, the Fund shall pay to Chubb
Investment fees at an annual rate set forth in Schedule A attached hereto. Fees
will accrue daily and will be payable as agreed by the Fund and Chubb
Investment, but not more frequently than monthly. The average asset value of the
Portfolios shall be determined and computed in accordance with the description
of the method of determining net asset value contained in the Prospectus.
The fees payable to Chubb Investment by the Fund hereunder shall be
reduced by any tender solicitation fees or similar payments received by Chubb
Investment, or any affiliated person of Chubb Investment, in connection with the
tender of investments of any Portfolio (less any direct expenses incurred by
Chubb Investment, or any affiliated person of Chubb Investment, in connection
with obtaining such fees or payments). Chubb Investment shall use its best
efforts to recapture all available tender offer solicitation fees and similar
payments in connection with tenders of the securities of any Portfolio,
provided, however, that Chubb Investment shall not be required to register as a
broker-dealer for this purpose. Chubb Investment shall advise the Board of
Directors of any fees or payments of whatever type which it may be possible for
Chubb Investment to receive in connection with the purchase or sale of
investment securities for any Portfolio.
5. Non-Exclusivity. The Fund agrees that the services of Chubb are not
to be deemed exclusive and Chubb Investment is free to act as investment manager
to various investment companies and as fiduciary for other managed accounts.
Chubb Investment shall, for purposes herein, be deemed to be an independent
contractor and shall, unless otherwise provided or authorized, have no authority
to act for or represent the Fund with respect to the Portfolios in any way or
otherwise be deemed an agent of the Fund with respect to the Portfolios other
than in futherance of its duties and responsibilities as et forth in this
Investment Management Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the directors,
officers and employees of Chubb Investment are not prohibited from engaging in
any other business activity or from rendering services to any person, or from
serving as partners, officers, directors, trustees, or employees of any other
firm or corporation, including other investment companies.
