FEE WAIVER AND EXPENSE ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT dated as of ________, 2006,
between DFA Investment Dimensions Group Inc., a Maryland corporation (the
"Fund"), on behalf of DFA International Real Estate Securities Portfolio (the
"Portfolio"), and Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Dimensional").
WHEREAS, Dimensional has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with
the Fund, on behalf of the Portfolio, pursuant to which Dimensional provides
investment management services for the Portfolio, and for which Dimensional is
compensated based on the average net assets of such Portfolio; and
WHEREAS, the Fund and Dimensional have determined that it is appropriate
and in the best interests of the Portfolio and its shareholders to limit the
expenses of the Portfolio;
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Fee Waiver and Expense Assumption by Dimensional. Dimensional agrees
to waive all or a portion of its management fee and to assume the
expenses of the Portfolio to the extent necessary to limit the
Portfolio's expenses on an annualized basis to 0.65% of its average
net assets.
2. Duty to Reimburse Dimensional. If, at any time, the Portfolio's
expenses are less than 0.65% of its average net assets on an
annualized basis, the Fund, on behalf of the Portfolio, shall
reimburse Dimensional for any fees previously waived and/or expenses
previously assumed to the extent that the amount of such reimbursement
does not cause the Portfolio's annualized expenses to exceed 0.65% of
its average net assets. There shall be no obligation of the Fund, on
behalf of the Portfolio, to reimburse Dimensional for fees waived or
expenses assumed by Dimensional more than thirty-six months prior to
the date of any such reimbursement.
3. Assignment. No assignment of this Agreement shall be made by
Dimensional without the prior consent of the Fund.
4. Duration and Termination. This Agreement shall continue in effect
until April 1, 2008, and shall continue in effect from year to year
thereafter, unless and until the Fund or Dimensional notifies the
other party to the Agreement, at least thirty days prior to the end of
the one-year period for the Portfolio, of its intention to terminate
the Agreement. This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the
termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement for the Portfolio.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of
the date first written above.
