(“Adviser”), Harbor Funds (the “Trust”), on behalf of Harbor Bond Fund (“Fund”), and Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“Subadviser”), is entered into the 11th day of February, 2009.
WHEREAS, the Agreement provides for the Subadviser to provide certain investment advisory services to the Harbor Bond Fund, for which the Subadviser is to receive agreed upon fees; and
WHEREAS, the parties desire to make certain changes to the Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is acknowledged, the parties hereby agree that the Agreement is amended as follows:
1. | Compensation of the Subadviser |
Schedule A to the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the attached Schedule A.
In addition to the April 1, 2008 fee schedule rate change reflected in the attached Schedule A, Section 4 of the Agreement is hereby amended effective January 1, 2009, to modify the manner in which the average net assets of the Fund are determined for purposes of calculating the subadvisory fee each quarter.
