SCHEDULE A
(Effective as of May 1, 2017)
As compensation for services provided by Subadvisor the Manager will pay the Subadvisor and Subadvisor agrees to accept as full compensation for all services rendered hereunder, at an annual subadvisory fee equal to the following:
| PORTFOLIO NAME | ANNUAL RATE** |
| MainStay VP Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio (portfolio portion)* |
0.525% up to $1 billion; and |
The portion of the fee based upon the average daily net assets of the respective Fund shall be accrued daily at the rate of 1/(number of days in calendar year) of the annual rate applied to the daily net assets of the Fund.
* For certain Portfolios, the Manager may agree to waive a portion of each Portfolio’s management fee or reimburse the expenses of the appropriate class of the Portfolio so that the class’ total ordinary operating expenses do not exceed certain amounts. These waivers or reimbursements may be changed with Board approval. To the extent the Manager agrees to waive its management fee or reimburse expenses, Candriam Belgium, as Subadvisor for these Portfolios, has voluntarily agreed to waive or reimburse its fee proportionately.
** The annual rate is based on the percentage that the Allocated Assets constitutes of the Portfolio’s total average daily net assets.
Payment will be made to the Subadvisor on a monthly basis.
