WHEREAS, the Investment Adviser is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (“Advisers Act”);

WHEREAS, the Subadviser is registered with the SEC as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act;

WHEREAS, the Trust has retained the Investment Adviser to render investment advisory services to the various portfolios of the Trust pursuant to an Advisory Agreement, as amended, and such Agreement authorizes the Investment Adviser to engage a subadviser to discharge the Investment Adviser’s responsibilities with respect to the investment management of such portfolios;

WHEREAS, the Trust and the Investment Adviser desire to retain the Subadviser to furnish investment advisory services to one or more portfolios of the Trust, and the Subadviser is willing to furnish such services to such portfolios and the Investment Adviser in the manner and on the terms hereinafter set forth; and

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants herein contained, it is agreed among the Trust, the Investment Adviser, and the Subadviser as follows:

1. Appointment. The Trust and the Investment Adviser hereby appoint Subadviser to act as subadviser to provide investment advisory services to the portfolios of the Trust listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (individually, a “Portfolio” and together, the “Portfolios”) for the periods and on the terms set forth in this Agreement. The Subadviser accepts such appointment and agrees to furnish the services set forth herein for the compensation herein provided.

In the event the Investment Adviser wishes to retain the Subadviser to render investment advisory services to one or more portfolios of the Trust other than the Portfolio, the Investment Adviser shall notify the Subadviser in writing and shall revise Exhibit A to reflect such additional portfolio(s). If the Subadviser is willing to render such services, it shall notify the Trust and the Investment Adviser in writing, whereupon such portfolio shall become a Portfolio hereunder, and be subject to this Agreement.

2. Subadviser Duties. Subject to the supervision of the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) and the Investment Adviser, the Subadviser will render investment advisory services to the Portfolio, including providing a continuous investment program for the Portfolio and determining the composition of the assets of the Portfolio. The Subadviser will provide

investment research and analysis, which may include computerized investment methodology, and will conduct a continuous program of evaluation, investment, purchases and/or sales, and reinvestment of the Portfolio’s assets by determining the securities, cash and other investments, including, but not limited to, futures, options contracts, swaps and other derivative instruments, if any and to the extent permitted in the Portfolio’s registration statement, that shall be purchased, entered into, retained, sold, closed, or exchanged for the Portfolio, when these transactions should be executed, and what portion of the assets of the Portfolio should be held in the various securities and other investments in which it may invest, and the Subadviser is hereby authorized to execute and perform such services on behalf of the Portfolio. To the extent permitted by the written investment policies of the Portfolio, the Subadviser shall make decisions for the Portfolio as to foreign currency matters and make determinations as to the retention or disposition of foreign currencies or securities or other instruments denominated in foreign currencies, or derivative instruments based upon foreign currencies, including forward foreign currency contracts and options and futures on foreign currencies and shall execute and perform the same on behalf of the Portfolio. The Subadviser is authorized to and shall exercise tender offers, exchange offers and vote proxies on behalf of the Portfolio, each as the Subadviser determines is in the best interest of the Portfolio in accordance with the Subadviser’s proxy voting policy. The Subadviser is authorized, on behalf of the Portfolio, to open brokerage accounts in accordance with Trust Procedures. The Subadviser is authorized, on behalf of the Portfolio, to enter into futures account agreements, ISDA master agreements and related documents, and to open accounts and take other necessary or appropriate actions related thereto, in accordance with Trust procedures.

In performing these duties, the Subadviser:

(a) will conform with (1) the 1940 Act, the Advisers Act and all rules and regulations thereunder, and releases and interpretations related thereto (including any no-action letters and exemptive orders which have been granted by the SEC applicable to the Trust, to the Investment Adviser (as provided to the Subadviser by the Investment Adviser), or to the Subadviser), including performing its obligations under this Agreement as a fiduciary to each Portfolio and its shareholders; (2) applicable rules and regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”) and releases and interpretations related thereto; (3) any applicable written procedures, policies and guidelines adopted by the Board and furnished to the Subadviser (“Trust Procedures”); (4) the Trust’s or Portfolio’s investment goals, investment policies and investment restrictions as stated in the Trust’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information as supplemented or amended from time to time, as furnished to the Subadviser; (5) the provisions of the Trust’s Registration Statement filed on Form N-1A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) and the 1940 Act, as supplemented or amended from time to time (the “Registration Statement”); (6) Section 851(b)(2) and (3) of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); and (7) any other applicable laws and regulations, including without limitation, proxy voting regulations. To the extent that the Subadviser engages in transactions that require segregation of assets or other arrangements, including but not limited to, options, futures contracts, short sales or borrowing transactions, the Subadviser shall designate to the Trust’s custodian those assets to be segregated in accordance with the 1940 Act, if necessary, based upon trading strategies and positions the Subadviser employs on behalf of the Portfolio, as well as to segregate assets, if necessary, in accordance with the 1934 Act and any other requirements of broker/dealers who may execute transactions

for the Portfolio in connection therewith. Until the Investment Adviser delivers any supplements or amendments to the Subadviser, the Subadviser shall be fully protected in relying on the Trust’s Registration Statement previously furnished by the Investment Adviser to the Subadviser. In managing the Portfolio in accordance with the requirements of this Section 2, the Subadviser shall be entitled to receive and act upon advice of counsel to the Trust, to the Investment Adviser or to the Subadviser that is also acceptable to the Investment Adviser.

(b) will (i) identify each position in the Portfolio that constitutes stock in a Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”), as that term is defined in Section 1296 of the Code, and (ii) make such determinations and inform the Investment Adviser at least annually (or more often and by such date(s) as the Investment Adviser shall request) of any stock in a PFIC.

(c) is responsible, in connection with its responsibilities under this Section 2, for decisions to buy and sell securities and other investments for the Portfolio, for broker-dealer and futures commission merchant (“FCM”) selection, and for negotiation of commission rates. The Subadviser’s primary consideration in effecting a security or other transaction will be to obtain the best execution for the Portfolio, taking into account the factors specified in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for the Trust, as they may be amended or supplemented from time to time and furnished to the Subadviser. Subject to such policies as the Board may determine and consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of its having caused the Portfolio to pay a broker or dealer, acting as agent, for effecting a Portfolio transaction at a price in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the Subadviser’s (or its affiliates’) overall responsibilities with respect to the Portfolio and to its other clients as to which it exercises investment discretion. To the extent consistent with these standards, and in accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder, and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section 17(e) of the 1940 Act, the Subadviser is further authorized to place orders on behalf of the Portfolio through the Subadviser if the Subadviser is registered as a broker or dealer with the SEC or as a FCM with the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”), through any of its affiliates that are brokers or dealers or FCMs or such other entities which provide similar services in foreign countries, or through such brokers and dealers that also provide research or statistical research and material, or other services to the Portfolio or the Subadviser. Such allocation shall be in such amounts and proportions as the Subadviser shall determine consistent with the above standards, and, upon request, the Subadviser will report on said allocation to the Investment Adviser and Board, indicating the brokers, dealers or FCMs to which such allocations have been made and the basis therefor. The Subadviser is authorized to open brokerage accounts on behalf of the Portfolio in accordance with Trust Procedures. The Subadviser shall not direct brokerage to any broker-dealer in recognition of, or otherwise take into account in making brokerage allocation decisions, sales of shares of a Portfolio or of any other investment vehicle by that broker-dealer.

(d) may, on occasions when the purchase or sale of a security is deemed to be in the best interest of a Portfolio as well as any other investment advisory clients, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, but shall not be obligated to, aggregate the securities to be so sold or purchased with those of its other clients where such aggregation is not inconsistent with the policies set forth in the Registration Statement as furnished to the Subadviser. In such event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in a manner that is fair and equitable and consistent with the Subadviser’s fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio and to such other clients.

(e) will, in connection with the purchase and sale of securities for the Portfolio, together with the Investment Adviser, arrange for the transmission to the custodian and recordkeeping agent for the Trust, on a daily basis, such confirmation(s), trade tickets, and other documents and information, including, but not limited to, CUSIP, SEDOL, or other numbers that identify securities to be purchased or sold on behalf of the Portfolio, as may be reasonably necessary to enable the custodian and recordkeeping agent to perform its administrative and recordkeeping responsibilities with respect to the Portfolio, and with respect to Portfolio securities to be purchased or sold through the Depository Trust Company, will arrange for the automatic transmission of the confirmation of such trades to the Trust’s custodian and recordkeeping agent, and, if required, the Investment Adviser. The Subadviser agrees to comply with such rules, procedures and time frames as the Trust’s custodian may reasonably set or provide with respect to the clearance and settlement of transactions for a Portfolio, including but not limited to submission of trade tickets. Any Portfolio assets shall be delivered directly to the Trust’s custodian.

(f) will provide reasonable assistance to the Investment Adviser, custodian or recordkeeping agent for the Trust in determining or confirming, consistent with the procedures and policies stated in the Trust’s valuation procedures and/or the Registration Statement, the value of any portfolio securities or other assets of the Portfolio for which the Investment Adviser, custodian or recordkeeping agent seeks assistance from the Subadviser or identifies for review by the Subadviser. Such reasonable assistance shall include (but is not limited to): (i) designating and providing timely access, on an as-needed basis and upon the reasonable request of the Investment Adviser or custodian, to one or more employees of the Subadviser who are knowledgeable about the security/issuer, its financial condition, trading and/or other relevant factors for valuation, which employees shall be available for consultation when the Board’s Valuation Committee convenes; (ii) notifying the Investment Adviser in the event any Portfolio security’s value does not appear to reflect corporate actions, news, significant events or such security otherwise requires review to determine if fair valuation is necessary under the Trust’s procedures; (iii) applying to the Portfolio’s assets the procedures of the Subadviser used for valuing the assets held by other accounts under management of the Subadviser and notifying the Investment Adviser of the valuation of such assets determined under such procedures, including in the event that the application of such procedures would result in a determination of fair value with respect to any asset held by the Portfolio where a market quotation is not readily available or is deemed to be unreliable with respect to such asset; (iv) upon the request of the Investment Adviser or custodian, assisting in obtaining bids and offers or quotes from broker/dealers or market-makers with respect to securities held by the Portfolio; (v) verifying pricing and providing fair valuations or recommendations for fair valuations in accordance with the Trust’s

valuation procedures, as they may be amended from time to time; and (vi) maintaining adequate records and written backup information with respect to the securities valuation services provided hereunder, and providing such information to the Investment Adviser or the Trust upon request. Such records shall be deemed to be Trust records.

(g) will maintain and preserve such records related to the Portfolio’s transactions as required under the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act. The Subadviser will make available to the Trust and the Investment Adviser promptly upon request, any of the Portfolio’s investment records and ledgers maintained by the Subadviser (which shall not include the records and ledgers maintained by the custodian and recordkeeping agent for the Trust), as are necessary to assist the Trust and the Investment Adviser in complying with requirements of the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act, as well as other applicable laws, and will furnish to regulatory authorities having the requisite authority any information or reports in connection with such services which may be requested in order to ascertain whether the operations of the Trust are being conducted in a manner consistent with applicable laws and regulations.

(h) will regularly report to the Board on the investment program for the Portfolio and the issuers and securities represented in the Portfolio, and will furnish the Board, with respect to the Portfolio, such periodic and special reports as the Board and the Investment Adviser may reasonably request, including, but not limited to, reports concerning transactions and performance of the Portfolio, a quarterly compliance checklist, reports regarding compliance with the Trust’s procedures pursuant to Rules 17e-1, 17a-7, 10f-3 and 12d3-1 under the 1940 Act, fundamental investment restrictions, procedures for opening brokerage accounts and commodity trading accounts, liquidity determination of securities purchased pursuant to Rule 144A and 4(2) commercial paper, IOs/POs, confirmation of the liquidity of all other securities in the Trusts, and compliance with the Subadviser’s Code of Ethics, and such other reports or certifications that the Investment Adviser may reasonably request from time to time.

(i) will adopt a written Code of Ethics complying with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act and Rule 204A-1 under the Advisers Act and will provide the Investment Adviser and the Trust with a copy of the Code of Ethics, together with evidence of its adoption. Within 30 days of the end of each calendar quarter during which this Agreement remains in effect, the president, a vice president, the chief compliance officer, a managing director, or other senior officer (as the Investment Adviser determines appropriate) of the Subadviser shall certify to the Investment Adviser, including that: (a) the Subadviser had a Code of Ethics that complied with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 during the previous calendar quarter, (b) the Code contains procedures reasonably necessary to prevent Access Persons (as defined in Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act, as amended) from violating the Code, and that (c) except as otherwise disclosed, there have been no material violations of the Code or, if a material violation has occurred, that appropriate action has been taken in response to such violation. Upon written request of the Investment Adviser or the Trust, the Subadviser shall permit representatives of the Investment Adviser and the Trust to examine the reports and records related to the reported material violations (or provide summaries of such reports and records, with non-public personal information redacted) required to be made under the Code of Ethics and other records evidencing enforcement of the Code of Ethics. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Subadviser shall not redact any information that would reasonably be considered relevant

(j) will provide to the Investment Adviser a copy of the Subadviser’s Form ADV, and any supplements or amendments thereto, as filed with the SEC, on an annual basis (or more frequently if requested by the Investment Adviser or the Board) including any portion which contains disclosure of legal or regulatory actions. The Subadviser represents and warrants that it is a duly registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act and will notify the Investment Adviser immediately if any action is brought by any regulatory body which would affect that registration. The Subadviser will provide a list of persons whom the Subadviser wishes to have authorized to give written and/or oral instructions to custodians of assets for the Portfolio.

(n) will assist the Investment Adviser, the Trust, and any of its or their trustees, directors, officers, and/or employees in complying with the provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 to the extent such provisions relate to the services to be provided by, and the obligations of, the Subadviser hereunder. Specifically, and without limitation to the foregoing, the Subadviser agrees to provide certifications to the principal executive and financial officers of the Trust (the “certifying officers”) that correspond to and/or support the certifications required to be made by the certifying officers in connection with the preparation and/or filing of the Trust’s Form N-CSRs, N-Qs, N-SARs, shareholder reports, financial statements, and other disclosure documents or regulatory filings, in such form and content as the Trust shall reasonably request or in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trust.

Compliance with the Selective Disclosure Policy includes the requirement of entering into confidentiality agreements with certain third parties who will receive non-public portfolio holdings of the Trust that meet the minimum requirements of the Selective Disclosure Policy. The Subadviser will provide any such agreements to the Investment Adviser or the Trust, along with any amendments or supplements thereto, from time to time on an ongoing basis only if reasonably requested by the Investment Adviser or the Trust, provided however that Subadviser may provide only those parts of the agreements that relate to ensuring conformance with the Trust’s Selective Disclosure Policy or other Trust Procedures. The Subadviser agrees to provide a certification with respect to compliance with Trust Procedures as may be requested by the Trust from time to time.

Subadviser will provide relevant trade information or documentation (for example, a schedule of purchases and sales and/or holdings or trade confirmations) for such security.

(w) will provide reasonable assistance to the Investment Adviser with respect to the annual audit of the Trust’s financial statements, including, but not limited to: (i) providing broker contacts as needed for obtaining trade confirmations (in particular with respect to investments in loans (including participations and assignments) and all derivatives, including swaps); (ii) providing copies of all documentation relating to investments in loans (including participations and assignments) and derivative contracts, within a reasonable time after the execution of such documentation; (iii) providing assistance in obtaining trade confirmations in the event the Trust or the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm is unable to obtain such confirmations directly from the brokers; and (iv) obtaining market quotations for investments (including investments in loans (including participations and assignments) and derivatives) that are not readily ascertainable in the event the Trust or the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm is unable to obtain such market quotations through independent means.

(x) will, on an annual basis, advise the Investment Adviser (i) if the Subadviser acts as sub-adviser to another U.S. registered mutual fund that follows the same investment strategy as the Portfolio and (ii) if so, whether the Subadviser’s fee rate is less than the rate charged the Investment Adviser for management of the Portfolio.

(y) will, for the duration of this Agreement, not directly or indirectly solicit or induce any personnel of Investment Adviser or its affiliated companies to leave the employ of Investment Adviser or affiliated company. After personnel of Investment Adviser or an affiliate cease to be in the employ of Investment Adviser or affiliate, Subadviser shall be free to directly or indirectly employ or retain such personnel in any capacity, so long as Subadviser did not solicit or induce such personnel to leave the employ of Investment Adviser or its affiliate.

3. Disclosure about Subadviser and Portfolio.

With respect to the disclosure respecting the Portfolio, the Subadviser

represents and agrees that the description in the Trust’s prospectus, including the Portfolio’s goal, investment strategies and risks (the “Portfolio Description”), as of the date of this Agreement and as of the date of any Registration Statement or supplement thereto, is consistent with the manner in which the Subadviser intends to manage the Portfolio, and the identification of risks is inclusive of all material risks known to the Subadviser that are expected to arise in connection with the manner in which the Subadviser intends to manage the Portfolio. The Subadviser further agrees to notify the Investment Adviser and the Trust promptly in the event that the Subadviser becomes aware that the Portfolio Description for a Portfolio is inconsistent in any material respect with the manner in which the Subadviser is managing the Portfolio, and in the event that the identified risks are inconsistent in any material respect with the risks known to the Subadviser that arise in connection with the manner in which the Subadviser is managing the Portfolio. In addition, the Subadviser agrees to comply with the Investment Adviser’s reasonable request for information regarding the personnel of the Subadviser who are responsible for the day-to-day management of a Portfolio’s assets.

In the event two or more subadvisers each require a supplement simultaneously, the expense of each supplement will be shared pro rata with such other subadviser(s) based upon the number of pages required by each such subadviser. All other expenses not specifically assumed by the Subadviser hereunder or by the Investment Adviser under the Advisory Agreement are borne by the applicable Portfolio of the Trust. The Trust, the Subadviser and the Investment Adviser shall not be considered as partners or participants in a joint venture.
