SCHEDULE B
TO THE FUND ACCOUNTING AGREEMENT
AS OF JULY 1, 2011
FEES AND EXPENSES
For the Services provided by Citi hereunder and under the separate Transfer Agency Agreement, Compliance Services Agreement and Rule 22c-2 Services Agreement, the Trust shall pay Citi on the first business day of each month, or as otherwise set forth below, fees for fund accounting, transfer agency, compliance and Rule 22c-2 services, determined at the annual rates set forth below.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fees for the Services provided hereunder and pursuant to the separate Sub-Administration Agreement for the Cavanal Hill Tax Free Money Market Fund shall be governed by that certain separate Omnibus Fee Agreement for the Institutional Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund Agreement dated July 1, 2004, as amended (the “Omnibus Agreement”) but only until such time as the Omnibus Agreement terminates.
I. Asset-Based Annual Fee
0.035% of the first $2 billion in aggregate net assets of all Funds
(excluding the Opportunistic Fund), plus
0.0275% of the next $2 billion in aggregate
net assets of all Funds (excluding the Opportunistic Fund), plus
0.02% of the aggregate
net assets of all Funds (excluding the Opportunistic Fund) in excess of $4 billion.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, annual fees for Opportunistic Fund shall be as follows:
$35,000 base

Should the amount of fees (excluding expenses or other out of pocket costs) payable to Citi hereunder for a calendar month be less than the Annual Minimum Fee divided by twelve (12), then the Trust shall pay Citi the difference.
