Ladies and Gentlemen:
This Expense Waiver Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of the date first set forth above
between Allianz Funds (the “Trust”), on behalf of its series as set forth in Exhibit A
hereto (each a “Fund” and, together, the “Funds”), and Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC
(“AGIFM”), on the following terms:
1. The Trust is an open-end management investment company that has multiple separate
investment portfolios, including the Funds.
2. Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Administration Agreement dated June 4, 2008 (the
“Administration Agreement”) and an Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement dated May 5,
2000 (the “Advisory Agreement” and, together with the Administration Agreement, the “Management
Agreements”), the Trust has retained AGIFM to provide the Trust and the Funds, and the Funds’
shareholders, with investment advisory, administration and other services.
3. During the term of this Agreement, for each Fund listed under “Fund” in Exhibit A,
for the share classes of such Fund specified adjacent under “Classes,” AGIFM shall waive its fees
payable under the particular Management Agreement specified adjacent under “Agreement” in the
amount or according to the schedule specified adjacent under “Expense Waiver.” In each case, the
amount waived will first be determined as aggregated across all share classes specified under
“Classes” and then prorated among the specified share classes according to the average daily net
assets attributable to each share class.
4. This Agreement shall be effective as of November 1, 2010 for a term lasting through October
