Brighthouse Asset Allocation 20 Portfolio - Class B		0.35

BHFT II, on behalf of the Brighthouse Asset Allocation 20 Portfolio (the “20 Portfolio”), agrees to repay to the Adviser the amount of fees waived and expenses borne by the Adviser with respect to each Class of the 20 Portfolio, subject to the limitations provided in this Agreement. Such repayment shall be made monthly, but only if the Operating Expenses of the Class in question, without regard to such repayment, are at an annual rate (as a percentage of average daily net assets of that Class) based on the 20 Portfolio’s then-current fiscal year that is less than the percentage rate for such Class as set forth in the Expense Deferral Schedule. Furthermore, the amount repaid by BHFT II in any month shall be limited so that the sum of (a) the amount of such repayment and (b) the other Operating Expenses allocable to the Class do not exceed the annual rate (as a percentage of that Class’ average daily net assets) for such Class as set forth in the Expense Deferral Schedule.

Amounts of fees waived and expenses borne by the Adviser with respect to expenses allocable to each Class of the 20 Portfolio pursuant to the Expense Deferral Schedule during any fiscal year shall not be repayable if the amounts allocable to such Class and repayable by BHFT II pursuant to the immediately preceding two sentences during the period ending five years after the end of such fiscal year are not sufficient to completely repay such amounts of fees waived and expenses borne. In no event will BHFT II be obligated to repay any fees waived or expenses allocable to any Class borne by the Adviser with respect to any other Class.

This Agreement shall become effective on the date first written above and shall remain in full force and effect until April 30, 2023.

In the event the Adviser and a Trust agree to terminate the Adviser’s obligation under this Agreement to waive fees or bear expenses with respect to any Portfolio following April 30, 2023 (or change the percentage specified in this Agreement with respect to any Portfolio), no such change shall affect the obligation (including the amount of the obligation) of the Trust to repay amounts of fees waived or expenses borne by the Adviser during the periods prior to the date of such termination, if any such obligation is in effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be signed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the day and year first written above.
