a Delaware Statutory Trust (“Fund”). The Agreement is hereby amended as set forth below (together,

Agreement.
WHEREAS, Investment Adviser, Fund Manager and the Trust are parties to the Agreement;
WHEREAS, the parties mutually desire to amend the Agreement as set forth herein;
WHEREAS, the Trust has retained the Investment Adviser to render investment advisory services
to the various portfolios of the Trust pursuant to an Advisory Agreement, as amended, and such

WHEREAS, the parties desire to appoint Fund Manager to serve as subadviser to another
portfolio of the Trust;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the renewal of the premises, promises and mutual covenants
contained herein and in the Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration paid, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties, the parties agree that the
Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
1. The Exhibit A attached to this Amendment hereby replaces the current Exhibit A to the
Agreement.
2. The sentence in Section 2(i) that begins “Within 30 days....” is hereby replaced with the
following:
Within 30 days of the end of each calendar quarter during which this Agreement remains
in effect, the president, a vice president, the chief compliance officer, a managing
director, or other senior officer (as the Investment Adviser determines appropriate) of the
Fund Manager shall certify to the Investment Adviser that (a) the Fund Manager had a Code of
Ethics that complied with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 during the previous calendar
quarter, (b) the Code contains procedures reasonably necessary to prevent Access Persons
from violating the Code, and that (c) except as otherwise disclosed, there have been no

Will provide reasonable assistance to the Trust and the Trust’s Chief Compliance
Officer (“CCO”) in complying with Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act, including providing notice
of any regulatory exams, including any deficiencies, and changes to business operations that
may affect the services provided by the Portfolio Manager under this agreement, provided
that such notice will be consistent with applicable law.
4. Section 2(r) is hereby replaced with the following:
(r) will comply with the Trust’s policy on selective disclosure of portfolio holdings
of the Trust (the “Selective Disclosure Policy”), as provided in writing to the Fund Manager

non-public portfolio holdings information of the Trust in a manner inconsistent with
applicable federal and state securities law or applicable international law, including
anti-fraud provisions of such laws, or inconsistent with any internal policy adopted by the
Fund Manager to govern trading of its employees. Compliance with the Policy also includes
the requirement of entering into confidentiality agreements that meet the minimum
requirements of the Policy with certain third parties who will be receiving non-public
portfolio holdings of the Trust. The Fund Manager will provide any such agreements to the
Investment Adviser or the Trust, as amended or supplemented, only if reasonably requested by
the Investment Adviser or the Trust, provided however that the Fund Manager may provide only

Disclosure Policy. The Fund Manager agrees to provide a certification with respect to
compliance with the Selective Disclosure Policy as may be reasonably requested by the Trust
from time to time.

the rules thereunder or other applicable law,” is hereby replaced with the following:
Except as may otherwise be required by the provisions of this Agreement (including
Section 14), the 1940 Act or the rules thereunder or other applicable law,

Except as may otherwise be required by the provisions of this Agreement (including

Manager agrees that the Trust and the Investment Adviser, any affiliated person thereof, and
each person, if any, who, within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, controls the
Trust or Investment Adviser, shall not be liable for, or subject to any damages, expenses,
or losses in connection with, any act or omission connected with or arising out of any
services rendered under this Agreement, except by reason of the Trust’s or Investment
Adviser’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of their
duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of the Trust’s or Investment Adviser’s
obligations and duties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
Amdmt No.1 to UBS Portfolio Management Agmt
