2. Portfolio Manager Duties. Subject to the supervision of Pacific
-------------------------
Funds' Board of Trustees and the Adviser, the Portfolio Manager will provide a
continuous investment program for the Funds and determine the composition of the
assets of the Funds. The Portfolio Manager will provide investment research and
analysis, which may include computerized investment methodology, and will
conduct a continuous program of evaluation, investment, sales, and reinvestment
of the Funds' assets by determining the securities and other investments,
including futures and options contracts, if any, that shall be purchased,
entered into, retained, sold, closed, or exchanged for the Funds, when these
transactions should be executed, and what portion of the assets of the Funds
should be held in the various securities and other investments in which it may
invest, and the Portfolio Manager is hereby authorized to execute and perform
such services on behalf of the Funds. To the extent permitted by the written
investment policies of the Funds, the Portfolio Manager shall make decisions for
the Funds as to foreign currency matters and make determinations as to the
retention or disposition of foreign currencies or securities or other
instruments denominated in foreign currencies, or derivative instruments based
upon foreign currencies, including forward foreign currency contracts and
options and futures on foreign currencies and shall execute and perform the same
on behalf of the Funds. The Portfolio Manager is authorized to exercise tender
offers, exchange offers and to vote proxies on behalf of the Funds, each as the
Portfolio Manager determines is in the best interest of the Funds. In performing
these duties, the Portfolio Manager:
(a) Will manage each of the Funds so that it will meet the requirements
of Section 851(b)(2) and (3) Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.
(b) Shall conform with (i) the 1940 Act and all rules and regulations
thereunder, and releases and interpretations related thereto (including any no-
action letters and exemptive orders which have been granted by the SEC to
Pacific Funds, the Adviser or the Portfolio Manager), (ii) with all other
applicable federal and, as identified by the Adviser, state laws and regulations
pertaining to open-end management investment companies, (iii) with any
applicable written procedures, policies and guidelines adopted by Pacific Funds'
Board of Trustees and furnished to Portfolio Manager, (iv) with the Funds'
objectives, investment policies and investment restrictions as stated in Pacific
Funds' Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information as supplemented or
amended from time to time, as furnished to the Portfolio Manager, and (5) with
the provisions of Pacific Funds' Registration Statement filed on Form N-1A under
the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") and the 1940 Act, as supplemented or
amended from time to time. Until the Adviser delivers any supplements or
amendments to the Portfolio Manager, the Portfolio Manager shall be fully
protected in relying on Pacific Funds' Registration Statement previously
furnished to the Portfolio Manager by the Adviser.
(c) Will: (i) use its best efforts to identify each position in the
Funds that constitutes stock in a Passive Foreign Investment Company ("PFIC"),
as that term is defined in Section 1296 of the Internal Revenue Code, and (ii)
make such determinations and inform the Adviser at least annually, (or more
often and by such date(s) as the Adviser shall request), of any stock in a PFIC.
(d) Is responsible, in connection with its responsibilities under this
Section 2, for decisions to buy and sell securities and other investments for
the Funds, for broker-dealer and futures commission merchant ("FCM") selection,
and for negotiation of commission rates. The Portfolio Manager's primary
consideration in effecting a security or other transaction will be to obtain the
best execution for the Funds, taking into account the factors specified in the
Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for Pacific Funds, as they
may be amended or supplemented from time to time and furnished to the Portfolio
Manager. Subject to such policies as the Board of Trustees may determine and
consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Portfolio Manager shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have
breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of its
having caused the Funds to pay a broker or dealer, acting as agent, for
effecting a portfolio transaction at a price in excess of the amount of
commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that
transaction, if the Portfolio Manager determines in good faith that such amount
of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and
research services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either
that particular transaction or the Portfolio Manager's (or its affiliates)
overall responsibilities with respect to the Funds and to its other clients as
to which it exercises investment discretion. To the extent consistent with these
standards, and in accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder, and subject to any other applicable laws
and regulations including Section 17(e) of the 1940 Act, the Portfolio Manager
is further authorized to place orders
on behalf of the Funds through the Portfolio Manager if the Portfolio
Manager is registered as a broker or dealer with the SEC or as a FCM with the
Commodities Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"), to any of its affiliates that
are brokers or dealers or FCMs or such other entities which provide similar
services in foreign countries, or to such brokers and dealers that also provide
research or statistical research and material, or other services to the Funds or
the Portfolio Manager. Such allocation shall be in such amounts and proportions
as the Portfolio Manager shall determine consistent with the above standards,
and, upon request, the Portfolio Manager will report on said allocation to the
Adviser and Board of Trustees of Pacific Funds, indicating the brokers, dealers
or FCMs to which such allocations have been made and the basis therefor.
(e) May, on occasions when the purchase or sale of a security is deemed
to be in the best interest of a Fund as well as any other investment advisory
clients, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, but shall
not be obligated to, aggregate the securities to be so sold or purchased with
those of its other clients where such aggregation is not inconsistent with the
policies set forth in Pacific Funds' Registration Statement as furnished to
Portfolio Manager. In such event, allocation of the securities so purchased or
sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the
Portfolio Manager in a manner that is fair and equitable and consistent with the
Portfolio Manager's fiduciary obligations to Pacific Funds and to such other
clients.
(f) Will, in connection with the purchase and sale of securities for
the Funds, together with the Adviser, arrange for the transmission to the
custodian and recordkeeping agent for Pacific Funds, on a daily basis, such
confirmation(s), trade tickets, and other documents and information, including,
but not limited to, Cusip, Sedol, or other numbers that identify securities to
be purchased or sold on behalf of the Funds, as may be reasonably necessary to
enable the custodian and recordkeeping agent to perform its administrative and
recordkeeping responsibilities with respect to the Funds, and with respect to
portfolio securities to be purchased or sold through the Depository Trust
Company, will arrange for the automatic transmission of the confirmation of such
trades to Pacific Funds' custodian, and recordkeeping agent, and, if required,
the Adviser.
(g) Will assist the custodian and recordkeeping agent for Pacific
Funds in determining or confirming, consistent with the procedures and policies
stated in the Registration Statement for Pacific Funds, the value of any
portfolio securities or other assets of the Funds for which the custodian and
recordkeeping agent seeks assistance from the Portfolio Manager or identifies
for review by the Portfolio Manager. This includes (but is not limited to)
obtaining bids and offers or quotes from broker/dealers or market-makers,
verifying pricing and recommending fair valuations in accordance with Pacific
Funds procedures, as they may be amended from time to time.
(h) Will maintain and preserve such records related to each Funds'
transactions as required under the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act. The Portfolio

Portfolio Manager (which shall not include the records and ledgers maintained by
the custodian and recordkeeping
agent for Pacific Funds), as are necessary to assist Pacific Funds and the
Adviser to comply with requirements of the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act, as
well as other applicable laws, and will furnish to regulatory authorities having
the requisite authority any information or reports in connection with such
services which may be requested in order to ascertain whether the operations of
Pacific Funds are being conducted in a manner consistent with applicable laws
and regulations.
(i) Will regularly report to Pacific Funds' Board of Trustees on the

the ordinary course of business in connection with placing orders for the
purchase and sale of securities or obtaining investment licenses in various
countries or the opening of custody accounts and dealing with settlement agents
in various countries, and will keep confidential any information obtained
pursuant to the Agreement, and disclose such information only if the Board of
Trustees of Pacific Funds has authorized such disclosure, or if such disclosure
is required by applicable federal or state law or regulations or regulatory
authorities having the requisite authority. Pacific Funds and the Adviser will
not disclose or use any records or information respecting the Portfolio Manager
obtained pursuant to this Agreement, in any manner whatsoever except as
expressly authorized in this Agreement, and will keep confidential any

only as expressly authorized in this Agreement, if the Board of Trustees of
