APPENDIX A

The Subadviser shall serve as investment subadviser for the following portfolios of the Trust. The Adviser will pay the Subadviser, as full compensation for all services provided under this Agreement, the fee computed separately for each such Portfolio at an annual rate as follows (the “Subadviser Percentage Fee”):

[   ]

The Subadviser Percentage Fee for each Portfolio shall be accrued for each calendar day and the sum of the daily fee accruals shall be paid monthly to the Subadviser. The daily fee accruals will be computed by multiplying the fraction of one over the number of calendar days in the year by the applicable annual rate described in the preceding paragraph, and multiplying this product by the net assets of the Portfolio as determined in accordance with the Trust’s prospectus and statement of additional information as of the close of business on the previous business day on which the Trust was open for business.

If this Agreement becomes effective or terminates before the end of any month, the fee (if any) for the period from the effective date to the end of such 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.
