This fee agreement is made as of the 27th day of March, 2009, and is amended as of the 28th day of May, 2020, by and between Xxxxx Fargo Funds Management, LLC (the “Adviser”) and Xxxxx Capital Management Incorporated (the “Sub-Adviser”); and
WHEREAS, the parties and Xxxxx Fargo Funds Trust (the “Trust”) have entered into an Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement (“Sub-Advisory Agreement”) whereby the Sub-Adviser provides investment management advice to each series of the Trust as listed in Appendix A to the Sub-Advisory Agreement (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”).
WHEREAS, the Sub-Advisory Agreement provides that the fees to be paid to the Sub-Adviser are to be as agreed upon in writing by the parties.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree that the fees to be paid to the Sub-Adviser under the Sub-Advisory Agreement shall be calculated as follows on a monthly basis by applying the annual rates described in this Schedule A to Appendix A for each Fund listed in Appendix A.
The Sub-Adviser shall receive a fee as described in this Schedule A to Appendix A of the assets of the Growth Balanced Fund and Moderate Balanced Fund and from each WealthBuilder Fund for providing services with respect to which Master Trust Portfolios (or, in the case of the WealthBuilder Funds, other unaffiliated funds) these Funds will invest in and the percentage to allocate to each Master Portfolio or unaffiliated fund in reliance on Section 12(d)(1)(G) under the Act, the rules thereunder, or order issued by the Commission exempting the Fund from the provisions of Section 12(d)(1)(A) under the Act (a “Fund of Funds structure”).
The net assets under management against which the foregoing fees are to be applied are the net assets as of the first business day of the month. If this fee agreement becomes effective subsequent to the first day of a month or shall terminate before the last day of a month, compensation for that part of the month this agreement is in effect shall be subject to a pro rata adjustment based on the number of days elapsed in the current month as a percentage of the total number of days in such month. If the determination of the net asset value is suspended as of the first business day of the month, the net asset value for the last day prior to such suspension shall for this purpose be deemed to be the net asset value on the first business day of the month.
