     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the agreements and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1. Appointment

     Adviser, with the consent of the Trust, hereby appoints Subadviser to provide day-to-day investment advisory services to the Fund for the periods and on the terms set forth in this Agreement. Subadviser accepts the appointment and agrees to furnish the services herein set forth for the compensation herein provided.

2. Delivery of Documents

     The Trust and/or Adviser have furnished Subadviser with properly certified or authenticated copies of each of the following:

	(a)		The Trust’s Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust as filed with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts;
	(b)		The Trust’s Amended and Restated Bylaws;
	(c)		Resolutions of the Trust’s Board of Trustees authorizing the appointment of Subadviser and approving this Agreement;

	(e)		The Trust’s current Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (together called the “Prospectus”);
	(f)		All compliance policies and/or procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust that are applicable to the operations of the Fund; and
	(g)		Any other investment policies, procedures and/or restrictions applicable to the operations of the Fund.

     The Trust and/or Adviser will furnish Subadviser with properly certified or authenticated copies of all amendments of or supplements to the foregoing at the same time as such documents are required to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and/or state authorities, or at such time as officially adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Trust.

3. Management

     Subject to the supervision of the Trust’s Board of Trustees and Adviser, Subadviser will provide a continuous investment program for the Fund, including investment research and management with respect to all securities, investments, cash and cash equivalents held by the Fund. Subadviser will determine what securities and other investments will be purchased, retained or sold by the Fund and will execute such decisions. Subadviser will provide the services under this Agreement in accordance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions as such are set forth in the Prospectus from time to time.

     Subadviser further agrees that it will employ such efforts as required pursuant to its fiduciary responsibilities under the Advisers Act, to:

	(a)		Conform its activities to all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and will, in addition, conduct its activities under this Agreement in accordance with the regulations of any other federal and state agencies which may now or in the future have jurisdiction over its activities under this Agreement;
	(b)		Place orders pursuant to its investment determinations for the Fund either directly with the respective issuers or with any broker or dealer. In placing orders with brokers or dealers, Subadviser will attempt to obtain the best net price and the most favorable execution of its orders. Consistent with this obligation, when Subadviser believes two or more brokers or dealers are comparable in price and execution, Subadviser may prefer: (i) brokers and dealers who provide the Fund with research advice and other services; and (ii) brokers who are affiliated with the Trust, Adviser, and/or Subadviser; provided, however, that in no instance will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to Subadviser in principal transactions; and

2

(c) Provide, at its own cost, all office space, facilities and equipment necessary for the conduct of its advisory activities on behalf of the Fund.

4. Services Not Exclusive

	(a)		Services to Other Funds. The advisory services to be furnished by Subadviser hereunder are not to be considered exclusive, and Subadviser shall be free to furnish similar services to others so long as its services to the Fund under this Agreement are not materially impaired thereby; provided, however, that without the written consent of Adviser, Subadviser shall not serve as an investment advisor to any other investment company having a similar investment objective to that of the Fund.
	(b)		Status of Subadviser. Subadviser shall for all purposes herein be deemed to be an independent contractor and not an agent for the Trust, the Fund or Adviser and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Trust, Fund or Adviser in any way.

5. Books and Records

     In compliance with Rule 31a-3 promulgated under the 1940 Act, Subadviser hereby agrees that all records which it maintains for the benefit of the Fund are the property of the Fund and further agrees to surrender promptly to the Fund any of such records upon the Fund’s request. Subadviser further agrees to preserve for the periods prescribed by Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the 1940 Act, the records required to be maintained by it pursuant to Rule 31a-1 promulgated under the 1940 Act that are not maintained by others on behalf of the Fund.

6. Expenses

     During the term of this Agreement, Subadviser will pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its investment advisory services furnished to the Fund other than the costs of securities and other investments (including brokerage commissions and other transaction charges) purchased or sold for the Fund.

7. Compensation

     Adviser will pay to Subadviser, and Subadviser will accept as full compensation for its services rendered hereunder, an investment advisory fee, computed at the end of each month and payable within five (5) business days thereafter, equal to the annual rate of 0.50 % of the average daily net assets of the Fund. All parties to this Agreement do hereby authorize and instruct the Fund’s administrator, Xxxxx Brothers Xxxxxxxx & Co., or its successor, to provide a calculation each month of the gross amount due to Subadviser. In the event that Subadviser’s services to the Fund begin or end at a time other than the beginning or end of a month, fees payable to Subadviser will be prorated for that portion of the month during which services were actually rendered.

     During the term of this Agreement, Subadviser may, from time to time, waive receipt of some or all of its fee and/or reimburse the Fund for other expenses incurred by the Fund in order to assist the Fund to maintain a certain overall expense ratio, such expense ratio to be determined by the Subadviser at its discretion. Subadviser is under no obligation to waive receipt of its fees, reimburse the Fund for expenses, or attempt in any manner to maintain any predetermined expense cap. Such actions and/or waivers on the part of Subadviser are entirely voluntary. However, in the event Subadviser does

3

undertake such waivers and/or reimbursements, Subadviser may recover such waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses, at Subadviser’s discretion, at any time for a period of thirty-six months subsequent to the time such waiver or reimbursement is made.

8. Limitation of Liability

     Subadviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment, mistake of law or loss suffered by the Fund in connection with the performance of this Agreement, except a loss to the Fund resulting from a breach of Subadviser’s fiduciary duties with respect to the receipt of compensation for services or a loss to the Fund resulting from the Subadviser’s willful malfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations or duties under this Agreement.

9. Duration and Termination

(a) This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first written above and, unless sooner terminated as provided herein, shall continue in effect for two years. Thereafter, this Agreement shall be renewable for successive periods of one year each, provided such continuance is specifically approved annually:

	(ii)		by either the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board of Trustees or the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund (as such a majority is defined in the 1940 Act).

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be terminated by:

	(i)		Adviser, if such termination is approved by the vote of the Board of Trustees of the Trust or the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund (as such a majority is defined in the 1940 Act), at any time without the payment of any penalty, upon sixty (60) calendar days’ written notice to Subadviser; or
	(ii)		Subadviser at any time upon sixty (60) calendar days’ written notice, without payment of any penalty.

(c) This Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of its assignment (as that term is defined in the 1940 Act).
