WHEREAS, the Fund has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement between itself and the Adviser, dated August 7, 2007, pursuant to which the Adviser is required to provide certain investment advisory services to the Fund; and

WHEREAS, the Adviser and the Fund desire to retain the Sub-adviser as investment Sub-adviser to provide the investment advisory services specified herein with respect to a portion of the Fund’s assets as Adviser or the Fund shall from time to time designate, and Sub-adviser is willing to render such services to the Fund in such capacity; and

WHEREAS, the Fund is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company and operates as an “employees’ securities company” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(13) of the 1940 Act.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

I. APPOINTMENT OF SUB-ADVISER; COMPENSATION

1.1. Appointment as Sub-adviser. Subject to and in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Fund and Adviser hereby appoint Sub-adviser as investment sub-adviser to perform the various investment advisory and other services as set forth herein with respect to the portion of the Fund’s assets that Adviser or the Fund shall from time to time designate (the “Allocated Portion”), subject to the restrictions set forth herein. It is acknowledged and agreed that the Fund and Adviser may appoint from time to time other sub-advisers in addition to the Sub-adviser to manage the assets of the Fund that do not constitute the Allocated Portion and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted to grant Sub-adviser an exclusive arrangement to act as the sole sub-adviser to the Fund.

FORM OF INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT

1.2. Scope of Investment Authority.

(a) The Sub-adviser is hereby authorized, on a discretionary basis, to manage the investments and determine the composition of the assets of the Allocated Portion; provided that the Allocated Portion shall be managed with the objective of obtaining the price and yield performance of the Xxxxxxx 3000 Index or such other index or management strategy as the Fund, Adviser and Sub-adviser may agree in writing from time to time. Sub-adviser’s management of the Allocated Portion shall be subject at all times to (i) the supervision and control of the Board of Directors of the Fund (the “Board” or “Board of Directors”); (ii) the requirements of the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder; (iii) the Fund’s investment objective, policies and limitations as provided in the Fund’s registration statement on Form N-2 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Registration Statement”); and (iv) such instructions, restrictions, policies and limitations relating to the Fund and/or the performance of oversight of the Sub-adviser’s duties hereunder as the Board or Adviser may from time to time adopt and communicate in writing to Sub-adviser; provided that the Fund or Adviser shall provide Sub-adviser with notice reasonably in advance of the effectiveness of any changes to the matters covered by clauses (iii) and (iv) to the extent they relate to the Allocated Portion (“Policy Changes”) and shall cooperate with respect to the implementation of such Policy Changes. In the event that Sub-adviser objects in writing to any Policy Change that is material on the basis that Sub-adviser would be unable to perform its duties under this Agreement without unreasonable effort or expense (the reasonableness of the matter to be viewed in light of industry practice for a registered investment adviser serving registered investment companies and managing assets of $50 billion or more), the Fund, Adviser and Sub-adviser shall cooperate in seeking to resolve the Sub-adviser’s objection prior to the effectiveness of such Policy Change and if the issues cannot be resolved between the parties then the Sub-adviser shall have the right for a period that ends on the sixtieth day after effectiveness of such Policy Change to terminate this Agreement upon ten business days notice to the Fund and the Adviser. It is acknowledged and agreed that the Fund or Adviser may delay or cancel the effectiveness of a Policy Change at any time, including after it receives notice of Sub-adviser’s intent to terminate this Agreement, and that Sub-adviser shall have no right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 1.2(a) if such Policy Change does not become effective prior to such termination date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Sub-adviser is not authorized to take any action, including the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, in contravention of any restriction, limitation, objective, policy or instruction described in this Section 1.2(a).

(b) It is understood and agreed that, for so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect, Sub-adviser shall retain discretionary investment authority over the manner in which the Allocated Portion is invested, and Adviser shall not have the right to overrule any investment decision with respect to a particular security made by Sub-adviser in accordance with Section 1.2 hereof; provided that the Board and Adviser shall at all times have the right to monitor the Fund’s investment activities and performance, require Sub-adviser to make reports and give explanations as to the manner in which the Fund’s assets are being invested, and, should either Adviser or the Board become dissatisfied with Sub-adviser’s performance in any way, terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.2 hereof.

1.3. Appointment as Proxy Voting Agent. Subject to and in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Board and Adviser hereby appoint Sub-adviser as the Fund’s proxy voting agent in respect of the securities held from time to time in the Allocated Portion, and hereby delegate to Sub-adviser discretionary authority to vote all proxies solicited by or with respect to issuers of securities held in the Allocated Portion from time to time substantially in accordance with the proxy voting policies and procedures of Sub-adviser as provided to the Fund and Adviser from time to time. Sub-adviser may act as the Fund’s proxy voting agent (with respect to the Allocated Portion) directly or Sub-adviser may, in whole or in part, employ a third-party to vote proxies on behalf of the Fund; provided, however, that in either case, Sub-adviser shall be responsible for voting all proxies on behalf of the Fund in respect of securities held in the Allocated Portion. Upon written notice to Sub-adviser, either the Fund or Adviser may at any time withdraw the authority granted to Sub-adviser pursuant to this Section 1.3 to perform any or all of the proxy voting services contemplated hereby. Upon reasonable request, Sub-adviser will make itself available to review its proxy voting activities with the Board and Adviser.

1.4. Governing Documents. The Fund or Adviser will provide Sub-adviser with copies of (i) the Fund’s Limited Partnership Agreement and By-laws, as currently in effect (together, the “Partnership Instruments”); (ii) the Fund’s currently effective Registration Statement under the 1940 Act and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; (iii) and any instructions, investment policies or other restrictions adopted by the Board or Adviser relating to its performance of oversight of the Sub-adviser. Sub-adviser agrees to review and become familiar with the Registration Statement and any written policies, restrictions or limitations adopted by the Board or Adviser with respect to the Allocated Portion and provided to Sub-adviser from time to time reasonably in advance of their effectiveness (the “Governing Documents”). Adviser will provide Sub-adviser with such further documentation and information concerning the investment objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to the Fund as Sub-adviser may from time to time reasonably request.

1.5. Sub-adviser’s Relationship. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Sub-adviser shall be an independent contractor and will have no authority to act for or represent the Fund or Adviser in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of any of them, except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or in writing by the Fund or Adviser.

1.6. Compensation. Sub-adviser shall be compensated for the services it performs on behalf of the Fund in accordance with the terms set forth in Appendix A to this Agreement. In case of commencement or termination of this Agreement during any calendar month, the fee with respect to the Fund for that month shall be reduced proportionately based upon the number of calendar days during which it is in effect, and the fee shall be computed upon the average daily net assets of the Allocated Portion for the days during which it is in effect.

II. SERVICES TO BE PERFORMED BY SUB-ADVISER

FORM OF INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT

2.1. Investment Sub-Advisory Services.

(a) In fulfilling its obligations to manage the assets of the Allocated Portion, Sub-adviser will:

(i) formulate and implement a continuous investment program for the Allocated Portion;

(ii) take whatever steps are necessary to implement the investment program for the Allocated Portion by the purchase and sale of securities and other investments, including the selection of brokers or dealers, the placing of orders for such purchases and sales in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) below and confirming that such purchases and sales are properly settled and cleared;

(iii) provide such reports with respect to the implementation of the investment program for the Allocated Portion as the Board or Adviser shall reasonably request; and

(iv) provide advice and assistance to the Fund as to the determination of the fair value of certain securities held in the Allocated Portion where market quotations are not readily available for purposes of calculating the net asset value of the Fund in accordance with valuation procedures and methods established by the Board.

(b) The Sub-adviser shall place all orders for the purchase and sale of securities in respect of the Allocated Portion with brokers and dealers selected by Sub-adviser. Such brokers and dealers may include brokers or dealers that are “affiliated persons” (as such term is defined in the 0000 Xxx) of the Fund, Adviser or Sub-adviser; provided that Sub-adviser shall only place orders on behalf of the Fund with such affiliated persons in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board pursuant to Rule 17e-1 under the 1940 Act. The Fund or Adviser shall provide Sub-adviser with a written list of the affiliated persons of the Fund and Adviser for these purposes, and Sub-adviser shall not be responsible for any violation of this Section 2.1(b) or related Fund policies as a result of placing orders with brokers or dealers that are affiliated persons of the Fund or Adviser unless Sub-adviser had received notice of such status pursuant to such written list (as it is amended from time to time). The Sub-adviser shall use its best efforts to seek to execute transactions at prices which are advantageous to the Fund and at commission rates which are reasonable in relation to the benefits received. In selecting brokers or dealers qualified to execute a particular transaction, brokers or dealers may be selected who also provide brokerage and research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) to the Fund and/or other accounts over which Sub-adviser or its affiliates exercise investment discretion. Subject to the Governing Documents, Sub-adviser is authorized to pay a broker or dealer who provided such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a transaction for the Fund which is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if Sub-adviser determines in good faith that such amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer. This determination may be viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the overall responsibilities which the Sub-adviser and its affiliates have in respect of accounts over which they exercise investment discretion. The Sub-adviser shall provide such information as is reasonably necessary to allow the Board to periodically review the commissions paid by the Fund to determine if the commissions paid over representative periods were reasonable in relation to the benefits received by the Fund.

(b) Sub-adviser will maintain all accounts, books and records with respect to the Fund as are required of an investment adviser of a registered investment company pursuant to the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder. Sub-adviser agrees that such records are the property of the Fund, and will be surrendered to the Fund promptly upon request. The Fund and Adviser shall be granted reasonable access to the records and documents in Sub-adviser’s possession relating to the Fund.

2.3. Information and Reporting. Prior to each Board meeting and at other times as the Fund or Adviser may reasonably request, Sub-adviser will provide Adviser and the Board with reports regarding Sub-adviser’s management of the Allocated Portion, including written certifications that the Fund is in compliance with the Governing Documents with respect to the Allocated Portion, the 1940 Act and applicable rules and regulations thereunder, and such other information about the Allocated Portion in such form as may be mutually agreed upon by the Fund, Sub-adviser and Adviser. The Sub-adviser also will certify quarterly to the Fund and Adviser that it and its “Advisory Persons” (as defined in Rule 17j-1 under the 0000 Xxx) have complied materially with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 during the previous quarter or, if not, explain what Sub-adviser has done to seek to ensure such compliance in the future. Annually, Sub-adviser will furnish a written report, which complies with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 and Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act, concerning the Sub-adviser’s code of ethics and compliance program, respectively, to the Fund and Adviser. Sub-adviser also will provide the Fund and Adviser with any information reasonably requested regarding its management of the Allocated Portion required for any Fund financial statement, shareholder report, amendment to the Registration Statement or prospectus supplement. Sub-adviser understands that the Fund will rely on such information in the preparation of such documents, and hereby covenants that any such information approved by Sub-adviser expressly for use in such documents shall be true and complete in all material respects. Sub-adviser will promptly inform the Fund and Adviser upon becoming aware that any material information in such documents is (or will become) materially inaccurate or materially incomplete.

Except as may be necessary or appropriate in carrying out the terms of this Agreement and the arrangements contemplated hereby, such confidential information shall not be disclosed to any third party without the prior consent of such providing party. The foregoing limitations shall not be applicable to any information that is publicly available when provided or which thereafter becomes publicly available other than in contravention of this Section 3.2 or which is required to be disclosed by any regulatory authority in the lawful and appropriate exercise of its jurisdiction over a party, including in response to any regulatory or enforcement request, any auditor of the parties hereto, by judicial or administrative process or otherwise by applicable law or regulation. It is acknowledged and agreed that any confidential information which is required to be disclosed to any regulatory authority due to the lawful and appropriate exercise of such regulatory authority’s jurisdiction over a party, by judicial or administrative process or otherwise by applicable law or regulation shall not render such information non-confidential for any other purpose.
