AGREEMENT
made as of the __ day of ___,
2007 by and among Sun Capital Advisers LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(the "Investment Adviser"), Sun Capital Advisers Trust, a Delaware statutory
trust (the "Trust"), on behalf of its series, SC PIMCO High Yield Fund (the
“Fund”), and Pacific Investment Management Company LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company (the “Subadviser").
WHEREAS,
the Trust is an open-end,
management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act
of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and the Fund is a series of the
Trust;
WHEREAS,
the Investment Adviser and the
Subadviser are investment advisers registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers
Act”);
WHEREAS,
pursuant to the provisions of
the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement dated _____, 2007 between
the
Investment Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, the Investment Adviser
may delegate any or all of its portfolio management responsibilities under
that
agreement to one or more subadvisers;
WHEREAS,
the Investment Adviser has
selected the Subadviser to act as a sub-investment adviser of the Fund and
to
provide certain other services, as more fully set forth below, and the
Subadviser is willing to act as such sub-investment adviser and to perform
such
services under the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;
NOW,
THEREFORE, the Investment Adviser,
the Trust and the Subadviser agree as follows:
1. Investment
Advisory and Management Services. The Investment Adviser hereby
appoints the Subadviser to serve as subadviser to the Fund and the Subadviser
hereby accepts such appointment. Subject to the supervision of the
Investment Adviser, Subadviser will regularly provide the Fund with investment
advice and investment management services concerning the investments of the
Fund. The Subadviser will determine what securities shall be
purchased, held or sold by the Fund and what portion of the Fund's assets shall
be held uninvested in cash and cash equivalents, subject always to the
provisions of the Trust’s Declaration of Trust and By-laws and the 1940 Act, and
to the investment objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to the Fund
(including, without limitation, the requirements of Subchapters L and M of
the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) (the "Code"), as each of the same
shall be from time to time in effect or set forth in the Fund’s Prospectus and
Statement of Additional Information, as well as any other investment guidelines
or policies the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”) or the
Investment Adviser may from time to time establish and deliver in writing to
the
Subadviser.
To
carry out such determinations the
Subadviser will exercise full discretion, subject to the preceding paragraph,
and act for the Fund in the same manner and with the same force and effect
as
the Trust might or could do with respect to purchases, sales or other
transactions, as well as with respect to all other things necessary or
incidental to the furtherance or conduct of such purchases, sales or other
transactions. Subadviser is authorized on behalf of the Fund to enter
into agreements and execute any documents required to make investments pursuant
to the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information or other investment
guidelines or policies established by the Board or Investment
Adviser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subadviser shall, upon
written instructions from the Investment Adviser, effect such portfolio
transactions for the Fund as the Investment Adviser may from time to time
direct. Such instructions will be given in reasonable circumstances,
including, without limitation, any termination of this Agreement.
If
the
custodian enters into securities lending transactions on behalf of the Fund,
the
Fund or the custodian shall be responsible for ensuring that the securities
or
other assets in the Fund are available for sale at all times. The
Subadviser shall not be liable for any loss resulting from the Subadviser’s
inability to sell a security that is not available in the Fund for settlement
as
a result of such securities lending transactions
A
representative of the Subadviser will
meet with the officers of the Investment Adviser and the Trust’s officers and
Trustees at least quarterly on due notice to review the investments and
investment program of the Fund in the light of current and prospective economic
and market conditions. From time to time as the Board of Trustees of
the Trust or the Investment Adviser may reasonably request, the Subadviser
will
furnish to the Investment Adviser and Trust’s officers and to each of its
Trustees, at the Subadviser's expense, reports on portfolio transactions and
reports on issues of securities held by the Fund, all in such detail as the
Trust or the Investment Adviser may reasonably request. The
Subadviser will keep the Trust’s officers and the Investment Adviser informed of
developments materially affecting the Fund’s holdings, and will, on its own
initiative, furnish the Trust’s officers and the Investment Adviser from time to
time with such information. The Subadviser agrees to promptly notify
the Investment Adviser if the Subadviser believes that the market quotations
are
not readily available for any security held by the Fund or if the market price
does not reflect the security’s fair value. In such instances, the
Subadviser will provide assistance to the Investment Adviser, the Trust’s
valuation committee and the Fund’s pricing agent in making determinations of the
fair value of such portfolio securities in accordance with the Trust’s valuation
procedures.
In
addition, the Subadviser will
provide a quarterly certification, in the form provided by the Investment
Adviser from time to time, that the Subadviser has managed the Fund in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Subadviser
acknowledges and agrees that the Investment Adviser may, in its discretion,
provide such quarterly compliance certifications to the Board. The
Subadviser agrees to correct promptly any failure on its part and to take any
action that the Investment Adviser may reasonably request in connection with
any
breach of this Agreement. The Subadviser shall also provide the
officers of the Fund with supporting certifications in connection with such
certifications of the Fund’s financial statements and disclosure controls
pursuant to the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act.
The
Subadviser will cooperate with and
provide reasonable assistance to the Investment Adviser, the Fund’s custodian
and foreign custodians, transfer agent and all other agents and representatives
of the Trust and the Investment Adviser, keep all such persons fully informed
as
to such matters as they may reasonably deem necessary to the performance of
their obligations to the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and the Investment
Adviser, provide prompt responses to reasonable requests made by such persons
and maintain any appropriate interaction with each to promote the exchange
of
information.
Unless
and until otherwise directed in
writing by the Investment Adviser or the Trust’s officers or Board, the
Subadviser will be responsible for voting all proxies, including taking action
with respect to corporate action elections for proxies and corporate actions
communicated by the Fund or its agents to the Subadviser, with respect to the
securities held by the Fund.
Unless
and until otherwise directed in
writing by the Investment Adviser or the Trust’s officers or Board, the
Subadviser shall prepare and file in consultation with the Investment Adviser
or
the Trust’s officers proofs of claim and other documentation on behalf of the
Fund as necessary to permit the Fund to participate in securities class action
suits relating to securities then held or previously held by the
Fund.
The
Subadviser shall maintain all books
and records required by Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act relating to its
responsibilities provided hereunder with respect to the Fund, and shall preserve
such records for the periods and in a manner prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under
the
1940 Act. The Subadviser shall permit the Investment Adviser, the
Fund's officers and its independent public accountants to inspect and audit
such
records at reasonable times during normal business hours upon due
notice.
If
any occasion should arise in which
the Subadviser gives any advice to its clients concerning the shares of the
Fund, the Subadviser will act solely as investment counsel for such clients
and
not in any way on behalf of the Fund. The Subadviser's services to
the Fund pursuant to this Agreement are not to be deemed to be exclusive, and
it
is understood that the Subadviser may render investment advice, management
and
other services to others.
The
Subadviser is prohibited from
consulting with any other subadviser to any other series of the Trust concerning
the Fund’s transactions in securities or other assets, except for the purpose of
complying with the conditions of Rule 12d3-1(a) and (b) under the 1940
Act.
2. Expenses. The
Subadviser will bear its own costs of providing services
hereunder. The Subadviser will not be responsible for expenses of the
Investment Adviser or the Fund, including, but not limited to, the following:
the Fund's legal, auditing and accounting expenses; expenses of maintenance
of
the Fund's books and records other than those required to be maintained by
the
Subadviser, including computation of the Fund's daily net asset value per share
and dividends; interest, taxes, governmental fees and membership dues incurred
by the Fund; fees of the Fund’s custodian, transfer agent, registrar or other
agents; expenses of preparing the Fund's share certificates; expenses relating
to the redemption or repurchase of the Fund’s shares; expenses of registering
and qualifying Fund shares for sale under applicable federal and state laws;
expenses of preparing, setting in print, printing and distributing prospectuses,
reports, notices and dividends to Fund investors (except that the Subadviser
will be responsible for costs associated with supplements to such documents
and
all regulatory filing requirements necessitated by a change of control of the
Subadviser or any change in the portfolio manager or managers assigned by the
Subadviser to manage the Fund); cost of Fund stationery; costs of Trustee,
shareholder and other meetings of the Trust or Fund (except that the Subadviser
will be responsible for costs associated with any shareholder meeting, or any
information statement prepared and distributed in lieu of a shareholder meeting,
necessitated by a change of control of the Subadviser); traveling expenses
of
officers, trustees and employees of the Trust or Fund; fees of the Trust's
trustees and salaries of any officers or employees of the Trust or Fund; and
the
Fund's pro rata portion of premiums on any fidelity bond and other insurance
covering the Trust or Fund and their officers and trustees.
3. Compensation
of Subadviser. As compensation for all investment advisory and
management services to be rendered hereunder, the Investment Adviser will pay
the Subadviser an annual fee, computed daily and paid quarterly in arrears,
which varies in accordance with the net asset value of the Fund. The
annual subadvisory fee is expressed as a percent of the average daily net assets
of the Fund as follows:
ASSET
LEVEL FEE
RATE
All
assets 0.25%
For
any period less than a full fiscal
quarter during which this Agreement is in effect, the fee shall be prorated
according to the proportion which such period bears to a full fiscal
quarter. The Subadviser's fee shall be payable solely by the
Investment Adviser. The Fund shall have no responsibility for such
fee.
For
purposes hereof, the value of net
assets of the Fund shall be computed in the manner specified in the Fund’s
Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for the computation of the
value of the net assets of the Fund in connection with the determination of
net
asset value of its shares. On any day that the net asset value
determination is suspended as specified in the Fund’s Prospectus, the net asset
value for purposes of calculating the advisory fee shall be calculated as of
the
date last determined.
4. Obligations
of the Investment Adviser.
a. The
Investment Adviser shall provide (or cause the Trust's custodian to provide)
timely information to the Subadviser regarding such matters as the composition
of assets in the Fund, cash requirements and cash available for investment
in
the Fund, and all other information as may be reasonably necessary for the
Subadviser to perform its responsibilities hereunder.
b. The
Investment Adviser has furnished the Subadviser a copy of the prospectus and
statement of additional information of the Fund and agrees during the
continuance of this Agreement to furnish the Subadviser copies of any revisions
or supplements thereto at, or, if practicable, before the time the revisions
or
supplements become effective. The Investment Adviser agrees to
furnish the Subadviser with copies of any financial statements or reports made
by the Fund to its shareholders, and any further materials or information which
the Subadviser may reasonably request to enable it to perform its functions
under this Agreement.
5. Brokerage
Transactions. Subject to the provisions of this Section 5 and
absent instructions from the Investment Adviser or the Trust, the Subadviser
will have full discretionary authority to place orders for the purchase and
sale
of securities for the account of the Fund with such brokers or dealers as it
may
select. In the selection of such brokers or dealers and the placing
of such orders, the Subadviser is directed at all times to seek for the Fund
the
most favorable execution and net price available. It is also
understood, however, that it is desirable for the Fund that the Subadviser
have
access to supplemental investment and market research and security and economic
analyses provided by certain brokers who may execute brokerage transactions
at
higher commissions to the Fund than may result when allocating brokerage to
other brokers solely on the basis of seeking the most favorable price and
efficient execution. Therefore, the Subadviser is authorized to place
orders for the purchase and sale of securities for the Fund with such certain
brokers, subject to applicable laws and regulations and review by the Investment
Adviser and the Trust’s Board of Trustees from time to time with respect to the
extent and continuation of this practice. It is understood that the
services provided by such brokers may be useful to the Subadviser in connection
with its services to other clients.
On
occasions when the Subadviser deems
the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interests of the Fund
as
well as other clients of the Subadviser, the Subadviser, to the extent permitted
by applicable laws and regulations, may, but shall be under no obligation to,
aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased in order to obtain the most
favorable price or lower brokerage commissions and efficient
execution. In such event, allocation of securities so sold or
purchased, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made
by
the Subadviser in the manner the Subadviser considers to be the most equitable
and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to the Fund and to such other
clients. The Subadviser will report on such allocations at the
request of the Investment Adviser, the Fund or the Trust’s Board of Trustees,
providing such information as the number of aggregated trades to which the
Fund
was a party, the broker(s) to whom such trades were directed and the basis
of
the allocation for the aggregated trades.
In
connection with purchases or sales
of portfolio securities for the account of the Fund, neither the Subadviser
nor
any of its affiliated persons, will act as a principal or agent or receive
directly or indirectly any compensation in connection with the purchase or
sale
of investment securities by the Fund, except as permitted by applicable law
and
with the express written consent of the Trust and the Investment
Adviser.
The
Subadviser will advise the Fund’s
custodian and the Investment Adviser on a prompt basis of each purchase and
sale
of a portfolio security, specifying the name of the issuer, the description
and
amount or number of shares of the security purchased or sold, the market price,
commission and gross or net price, trade date, settlement date and identity
of
the effecting broker or dealer, and such other information as may be reasonably
required.
6. Standard
of Care and Liability of Subadviser. The Subadviser will not be
liable for any loss sustained by reason of the adoption of any investment policy
or the purchase, sale, or retention of any security on the recommendation of
the
Subadviser, whether or not such recommendation shall have been based upon its
own investigation and research or upon investigation and research made by any
other individual, firm or corporation, if such recommendation shall have been
made and such other individual, firm, or corporation shall have been selected,
with due care and in good faith; but nothing herein contained will be construed
to protect the Subadviser against any liability to the Investment Adviser,
the
Fund or its shareholders by reason of: (a) the Subadviser’s causing
the Fund to be in violation of any applicable federal or state law, rule or
regulation or any investment policy or restriction set forth in the Fund’s
prospectus or Statement of Additional Information or any written guidelines
or
instruction provided in writing by the Trust’s Board of Trustees or the
Investment Adviser, (b) the Subadviser’s causing the Fund to fail to satisfy the
diversification requirements of § 817(h) of Subchapter L of the Code, or
the diversification or source of income requirements of Subchapter M of the
Code, or (c) the Subadviser’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence
in the performance of its duties hereunder or its reckless disregard of its
obligations and duties under this Agreement.
The
Subadviser will indemnify and hold
harmless the Investment Adviser, its affiliated persons and the Fund
(collectively, the "Indemnified Persons") to the fullest extent permitted by
law
against any and all loss, damage, judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement
and attorneys fees incurred by any Indemnified Person to the extent resulting,
in whole or in part, from any of the Subadviser’s acts or omissions specified in
(a), (b) or (c) above, any breach of any duty or warranty hereunder of the
Subadviser or any inaccuracy of any representation of the Subadviser made
hereunder, provided, however, that nothing herein contained will provide
indemnity to any Indemnified Person for liability resulting from its own willful
misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties
or
reckless disregard of such duties.
The
Investment Adviser shall indemnify
and hold harmless the Subadviser to the fullest extent permitted by law against
any and all loss, damage, judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and
attorneys fees incurred by the Subadviser to the extent resulting, in whole
or
in part, from (x) the Investment Adviser's willful misfeasance, bad faith or
gross negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder or its reckless
disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement and (y) any breach
of any duty or warranty hereunder of the Investment Adviser or any inaccuracy
of
any representation of the Investment Adviser made hereunder, provided, however,
that nothing herein contained will provide indemnity to the Subadviser for
liability resulting from its own willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross
negligence in the performance of its duties or reckless disregard of such
duties.
Neither
the Investment Adviser nor the
Subadviser shall be obligated to make any indemnification payment in respect
of
any settlement as to which it has not been notified and consented, such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld.
7. Term
and Termination. This Agreement shall remain in force until
December 31, 2008 and from year to year thereafter, but only so long as such
continuance, and the continuance of the Investment Adviser as investment adviser
of the Fund, is specifically approved at least annually by the vote of a
majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Subadviser or
the
Investment Adviser of the Fund, cast in person at a meeting called for the
purpose of voting on such approval and by a vote of the Board of Trustees or
of
a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund. The
aforesaid requirement that continuance of this Agreement be "specifically
approved at least annually" shall be construed in a manner consistent with
the
1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. This Agreement
may, upon 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser, be terminated at any time
without the payment of any penalty, (a) by the Fund, by the Board of Trustees
or
by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, or
(b)
by the Investment Adviser. This Agreement may, upon 120 days written
notice to the Trust and the Investment Adviser, be terminated at any time,
without payment of any penalty, by the Subadviser. This Agreement
shall automatically terminate in the event of its assignment.

be
granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission by any rule, regulation or
