Ladies
and Gentlemen:
This
will confirm the agreement between the undersigned (the “Trust”) and
Allianz Global Investors Distributors LLC (formerly known as PIMCO Advisors
Distributors LLC and PIMCO Funds Distributors LLC) (the
“Distributor”) as follows:
1.
The
Trust is an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts
business trust and consisting of such separate investment portfolios as have
been or may be established by the Trustees of the Trust from time to time.
FISH: Series H (the “New Fund”) is a separate investment portfolio of
the Trust.
2.
The
Trust and the Distributor have entered into a Distribution Contract (the
“Contract”) dated March 15, 2000, pursuant to which the Distributor
has agreed to be the distributor of shares of beneficial interest in the
Trust.
3.
In
accordance with paragraph 1 of the Contract, the Trust and the Distributor
hereby designate the New Fund as an additional investment portfolio to which
the Contract pertains and adopt the Contract with respect to the New Fund, the
terms and conditions of the Contract being hereby incorporated herein by
reference.
4.
This
Supplement and the Contract shall become effective with respect to the New Fund
on the date hereof and shall remain in full force and effect continuously as to
the New Fund (unless terminated automatically as set forth in Section 16
of the Contract) until terminated:
(a) Either
by the New Fund or the Distributor by not more than sixty (60) days’ nor
less than thirty (30) days’ written notice delivered or mailed by
registered mail, postage prepaid, to the other party; or
(b) Automatically
as to the New Fund at the close of business one year from the date hereof, or
upon the expiration of one year from the effective date of the last continuance
of the Contract, whichever is later, if the continuance of the Contract is not
specifically approved at least annually by the Trustees of the Trust or the
shareholders of the New Fund by the
affirmative
vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the New Fund, and by a majority
of the Trustees of the Trust who are not “interested persons” of the
Trust (as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the “1940 Act”)) and who have no direct or indirect
financial interest in the Contract by vote cast in person at a meeting called
for the purpose of voting on such approval.
Action
by the New Fund under (a) above may be taken either (i) by vote of the Trustees
of the Trust, or (ii) by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding
shares of the New Fund. The requirement under (b) above that the continuance of
this Contract be “specifically approved at least annually” shall be
construed in a manner consistent with the 1940 Act and the rules and
regulations thereunder.
Termination
of this Supplement and the Contract pursuant to this section shall be without
the payment of any penalty.
If the
Contract is terminated or not renewed with respect to the New Fund or any other
investment portfolio, it may continue in effect with respect to any investment
portfolio or class thereof as to which it has not been terminated (or has been
renewed).
