WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Penn Series Funds, Inc. (“Penn Series”) is an open-end management investment company registered as such under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), and is authorized to issue shares in separate series with each series representing interests in a separate fund of securities and other assets; and

WHEREAS, Adviser and Sub-Adviser are engaged principally in the business of rendering investment advisory services and are registered as investment advisers under the  Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

WHEREAS, Adviser is authorized to render investment advisory services to Penn Series and to enter into a sub-advisory agreement with a sub-adviser for the rendering of investment advisory services by the Sub-Adviser to Adviser;

WHEREAS, Adviser desires Sub-Adviser to render investment sub-advisory services to Penn Series in the manner and on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and Sub-Adviser desires to render such services, in such manner and under such terms;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Investment Sub-Advisory Services.  Sub-Adviser shall serve as investment sub-adviser and shall supervise and direct the investments of the Large Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund”), and to exercise all rights incidental to ownership in accordance with the investment objectives, program and restrictions applicable to the Fund as provided in Penn Series’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), as amended from time to time, and such other limitations as may be imposed by law or as Penn Series or Adviser may impose with

1

notice in writing to Sub-Adviser.  To enable Sub-Adviser to fully exercise its discretion, Adviser hereby appoints Sub-Adviser as agent and attorney-in-fact for the Fund with full power and authority to buy, sell and otherwise deal in securities and contracts for the Fund.  No investment will be made by Sub-Adviser for the Fund if the investment would violate the investment objectives, investment restrictions or limitations of the Fund set out in the Prospectus and the SAI delivered to the Sub-Adviser and as may be amended and delivered to Sub-Adviser in the future.  Sub-Adviser shall not take custody of any assets of Penn Series, but shall issue settlement instructions to the custodian designated by Penn Series (the “Custodian”).  Sub-Adviser shall, in its discretion, obtain and evaluate such information relating to the economy, industries, businesses, securities markets and securities as it may deem necessary or useful in the discharge of its obligations hereunder and shall formulate and implement a continuing program for the management of the assets and resources of the Fund in a manner consistent with the investment objectives of the Fund.  In furtherance of this duty, Sub-Adviser, as agent and attorney-in-fact with respect to Adviser and Penn Series, is authorized, in its discretion and without prior consultation with Adviser or Penn Series, to:

(i)		buy, sell, exchange, convert, lend, and otherwise trade in any stocks, bonds, and other securities or assets; and
(ii)		place orders and negotiate the commissions (if any) for the execution of transactions in securities with or through such brokers, dealers, underwriters or issuers as Sub-Adviser may select, in conformance with the provisions of Paragraph 4 herein; and
(iii)		take such other actions Sub-Adviser deems to be appropriate;

provided, however, that Sub-Adviser shall make no investment for the Fund that would violate the objectives, investment program, or restrictions or limitations of the Fund.

2. Accounting and Related Services.  Sub-Adviser agrees to cooperate with the Accounting Services Agent appointed by Penn Series pursuant to the Accounting Services Agreement entered into by Penn Series and the Accounting Services Agent.  As requested from time to time, Sub-Adviser shall provide Penn Series and its Accounting Services Agent with such information as may be reasonably necessary to properly account for financial transactions with respect to the Fund.

3. Sub-Advisory Fee.

A. Payment of Fee.  For the services Sub-Adviser renders to the Fund under this Agreement, Adviser will pay Sub-Adviser fees based on the average daily net assets of the Fund.

B. Fee Rate.  The fee rate, based on the average daily net assets of the Fund, is forty basis points (0.40%) on the first $100,000,000 of assets and thirty-five basis points (0.35%) on assets in excess of $100,000,000.

C. Method of Computation.  The fee shall be accrued for each calendar day and the sum of the daily fee accruals shall be paid monthly to Sub-Adviser as of

2

the first business day of the next succeeding calendar month.  The daily fee will be computed by multiplying the fraction of one over the number of calendar days in the year by the annual rate applicable to the Fund as set forth above, and multiplying this product by the net assets of the Fund. A Fund’s net assets, for purposes of the calculations described above, will be determined in accordance with Penn Series’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information as of the close of business on the most recent previous business day on which Penn Series was open for business.

4. Brokerage.  In executing portfolio transactions and selecting brokers or dealers for the Fund, Sub-Adviser will use its best efforts to seek the best price and the most favorable execution of its orders.  In assessing the best price and the most favorable execution for any transaction, Sub-Adviser shall consider the breadth of the market in the security, the price of the security, the skill, financial condition and execution capability of the broker or dealer, and the reasonableness of the commission, if any.  Where best price and most favorable execution will not be compromised, Sub-Adviser may take into account the research and related services that the broker has provided to Penn Series or the Sub-Adviser.  It is understood that the Sub-Adviser will not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached a fiduciary duty to the Fund or be in breach of any obligation owing to the Fund under this Agreement, or otherwise, by reason of its having directed a securities transaction on behalf of the Fund to a broker-dealer in compliance with the provisions of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or as described from time to time in the Penn Series’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.  In addition, the Sub-Adviser is authorized to allocate purchase and sale orders for securities to brokers or dealers that are affiliated with the Adviser or Sub-Adviser if the Sub-Adviser believes that the quality of the transaction and the commission are comparable to what they would be with other qualified firms.  In no instance, however, will the Fund’s assets be purchased from or sold to the Adviser or Sub-Adviser or any affiliated person of Penn Series, Adviser, or Sub-Adviser, acting as principal in the transaction, except to the extent permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Act.  Sub-Adviser shall advise Penn Series’ Board of Directors, when requested, as to all payments of commissions and as to its brokerage policies and practices and shall follow such instructions with respect thereto as may be given by Penn Series’ Board.

5. Use of the Services of Others.  Sub-Adviser may (at its cost except as contemplated by Section 4 of this Agreement) employ, retain or otherwise avail itself of the services or facilities of other persons or organizations for the purpose of providing Penn Series, Adviser or itself, as appropriate, with such statistical and other factual information, such advice regarding economic factors and trends, such advice as to occasional transactions in specific securities or such other information, advice or assistance as Sub-Adviser may deem necessary, appropriate or convenient for the discharge of its obligations hereunder or otherwise helpful to Penn Series and Adviser, or in the discharge of Sub-Adviser’s overall responsibilities with respect to the other accounts which it serves as investment adviser.

6. Personnel, Office Space, and Facilities.  Sub-Adviser at its own expense shall furnish or provide and pay the cost of such office space, office equipment, office personnel, and office services as it, or any affiliated corporation of Sub-Adviser, requires in the performance of services under this Agreement.

3

7. Ownership of Software and Related Material.  All computer programs, magnetic tapes, written procedures and similar items developed and used by Sub-Adviser or any affiliate in performance of this Agreement are the property of Sub-Adviser and will not become the property of Penn Series or Adviser.

8. Reports to Penn Series and Cooperation with Accountants.  Sub-Adviser, and any affiliated corporation of Sub-Adviser performing services for Adviser and Penn Series described in this Agreement, shall furnish to or place at the disposal of Penn Series and Adviser, such information, reports, evaluations, analyses and opinions as Penn Series and Adviser may, at any time or from time to time, reasonably request or as Sub-Adviser may deem helpful, to reasonably ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations or for any other purpose.  Sub-Adviser and its affiliates shall cooperate with Penn Series’ independent public accountants and take all reasonable action in the performance of services and obligations under this Agreement to assure that the information needed by such accountants is made available to them for the expression of their opinion without any qualification as to the scope of their examination, including, but not limited to, their opinion included in Penn Series’ annual report under the Act and annual amendment to Penn Series’ registration statement under the Act.

9. Reports to Sub-Adviser.  Penn Series and/or Adviser shall furnish or otherwise make available to Sub-Adviser such prospectuses, statements of additional information, financial statements, proxy statements, reports, and other information relating to the business and affairs of Penn Series, as Sub-Adviser may, at any time or from time to time, reasonably require in order to discharge its obligations under this Agreement.

10. Ownership of Records.  All records required to be maintained and kept current by Penn Series pursuant to the provisions of rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 31(a) of the Act and that are maintained and kept current by Sub-Adviser or any affiliated corporation of Sub-Adviser on behalf of Penn Series are the property of Penn Series.  Such records will be preserved by Sub-Adviser itself or through an affiliated corporation for the periods prescribed in Rule 3la-2 under the Act, where applicable, or in such other applicable rules that may be adopted from time to time under the Act.  Such records may be inspected by representatives of Penn Series and Adviser at reasonable times and, in the event of termination of this Agreement, will be promptly delivered to Adviser and Penn Series upon request.

11. Services to Other Clients.  Nothing herein contained shall limit the freedom of Sub-Adviser or any affiliated person of Sub-Adviser to render investment supervisory and other services to other investment companies, to act as investment adviser or investment counselor to other persons, firms or corporations or to engage in other business activities; but so long as this Agreement or any extension, renewal or amendment hereof shall remain in effect as to Fund, or until Sub-Adviser shall otherwise consent, Sub-Adviser shall be the only investment sub-adviser to the Fund.  It is understood that Sub-Adviser may give advice and take action for its other clients which may differ from advice given, or the timing or nature of action taken, for a Fund.  Sub-Adviser is not obligated to initiate transactions for a Fund in any security which Sub-Adviser , its principals, affiliates or employees may purchase or sell for its or their own accounts or other clients.

12. Confidential Relationship.  Information furnished by Penn Series or by one party to another, including Penn Series’ or a party’s respective agents and employees, is confidential and shall not be disclosed to third parties unless required by law. Sub-Adviser, on behalf of itself and its affiliates and representatives, agrees to keep confidential all records and other information relating to Adviser or Penn Series (as the case may be), except after prior notification to and approval in writing by Adviser or Penn Series (as the case may be), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and may not be withheld, where Sub-Adviser or any affiliate may be exposed to civil or criminal contempt proceedings for failure to comply, when requested to divulge such information by duly constituted authorities, when so requested by Adviser and Penn Series.

13. Proxies.  Subject to such oversight by Penn Series as the Board of Directors of Penn Series shall deem appropriate, Sub-Adviser shall vote proxies solicited by or with respect to the issuers of securities held in a Fund.

14. Instructions, Opinion of Counsel and Signatures.  At any time Sub-Adviser may apply to an officer of Penn Series for instructions, and may consult legal counsel for Penn Series, in respect of any matter arising in connection with this Agreement, and Sub-Adviser shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it or by any affiliate in good faith in accordance with such instructions or with the advice or opinion of Penn Series’ legal counsel.  Sub-Adviser and its affiliates shall be protected in acting upon any instruction, advice, or opinion provided by Penn Series or its legal counsel and upon any other paper or document delivered by Penn Series or its legal counsel believed by Sub-Adviser to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper person or persons and shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any officer or agent of Penn Series, until receipt of written notice thereof from Penn Series. Sub-Adviser shall inform Adviser of all applications to Penn Series for instructions and all consultations with legal counsel for Penn Series at the time of such application or consultation.

15. Compliance with Governmental Rules and Regulations.  Except as such responsibility may be placed upon Sub-Adviser or any affiliate by the terms of this Agreement, and except for the accuracy of information furnished to Penn Series by Sub-Adviser or any affiliate, Sub-Adviser does not assume responsibility for the preparation, contents and distribution of the prospectuses for Penn Series, for complying with any applicable requirements of the Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Securities Act of 1933, or any other laws, rules and regulations of governmental authorities having jurisdiction over Penn Series.

16. Limitation of Liability.  Neither Sub-Adviser nor any of its affiliates, their respective officers, directors, employees or agents, or any person performing executive, administrative, trading, or other functions for Penn Series (at the direction or request of Sub-Adviser), or Sub-Adviser or its affiliates in connection with the discharge of obligations undertaken or reasonably assumed with respect to this Agreement, shall be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by Penn Series in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except for such error, mistake or loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of its, his or her duties on behalf of Penn Series or constituting or resulting from a failure to comply with any term of this Agreement.  Sub-Adviser shall not be responsible for any loss incurred by reason of

5

any act or omission of the Custodian or of any broker, dealer, underwriter or issuer selected by Sub-Adviser with reasonable care.

17. Obligations of Adviser and Sub-Adviser.  It is expressly agreed that the obligations of Adviser and Sub-Adviser hereunder shall not be binding upon any of their directors, shareholders, nominees, officers, agents or employees, personally.  The execution and delivery of this Agreement have been authorized in accordance with the governing documents of each party and in accordance with applicable law, and shall be signed by an authorized officer of each party, acting as such, and shall be binding on each party.
