WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Agreement and agree that the amendment will be
effective as of December 15, 2006.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. Section 10 is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
10. Term and Approval. With respect to each Series identified as a Series on
Schedule A hereto as in effect on the date of this Amendment, unless earlier
terminated with respect to any Series this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect
through November 30, 2007. Thereafter, unless earlier terminated with respect to a
Series, the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect with respect to each such
Series for periods of one year, provided that such continuance is specifically approved at
least annually by (i) the vote of a majority of the Board of Trustees of the Trust, or (ii)
the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting shares of the Series (as defined in the
1940 Act), and provided that such continuance is also approved by the vote of a majority of
the Board of Trustees of the Trust who are not parties to this Agreement or “interested
persons” (as defined in the 0000 Xxx) of the Trust or the Manager, cast in person at a
meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
With respect to any Series that was added to Schedule A hereto as a Series
after the date of this Amendment, the Agreement shall become effective on the later of (i)
the date Schedule A is amended to reflect the addition of such Series as a Series
under the Agreement or (ii) the date upon which the shares of the Series are first sold to
the public, subject to the condition that the Trust’s Board of Trustees, including a
majority of those Trustees who are not interested persons (as such term is defined in the
0000 Xxx) of the Manager, and the shareholders of such Series, shall have approved this
Agreement. Unless terminated earlier as provided herein with respect to any such Series,
the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect for a period of two years from the
date of its effectiveness (as identified above) with respect to that Series. Thereafter,
unless earlier terminated with respect to a Series, the Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect with respect to each such Series for periods of one year, provided that
such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by (i) the vote of a majority of
the Board of Trustees of the Trust, or (ii) vote of a majority of the outstanding voting
shares
(d)(2)(ii)
of such Series (as defined in the 1940 Act), and provided that such continuance is also
approved by the vote of a majority of the Board of Trustees of the Trust who are not parties
to this Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the 0000 Xxx) of the Trust or the
Manager, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
2. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to
them in the Agreement.

effect.
