NOW, THEREFORE, the Investment Adviser, the Trust and the Sub-Adviser agree as follows:

1.	APPOINTMENT OF THE SUB-ADVISER

The Investment Adviser hereby appoints the Sub-Adviser to act as a sub-adviser for each Fund, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

2.	ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT

The Sub-Adviser accepts that appointment and agrees to render the services herein set forth, for the compensation herein provided.

The assets of each Fund will be maintained in the custody of a custodian (who shall be identified by Investment Adviser in writing).

The custodian will be responsible for the custody, receipt and delivery of securities and other assets of the Fund, and the Sub-Adviser shall have no authority, responsibility or obligation with respect to the custody, receipt or delivery of securities or other assets of the Fund.

3.	SERVICES TO BE RENDERED BY THE SUB-ADVISER TO THE TRUST

A. As sub-adviser to each Fund, the Sub-Adviser will coordinate the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund and determine the composition of the assets of the Fund, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Fund’s Prospectuses and Statements of Additional Information, as currently in effect and as amended or supplemented from time to time, and subject to the direction, supervision and control of the Investment Adviser and the Trustees of the Trust. The Sub-Adviser shall initially determine the securities that will be applicable that day to redemption requests received for the Fund as may be necessary as a result of rebalancing adjustments and corporate action events (and may give directions to the Trust’s custodian with respect to such designations). Prior to the commencement of the Sub-Adviser’s services hereunder, the Investment Adviser shall provide the Sub-Adviser with current copies of the Fund’s Prospectuses and Statements of Additional Information. The Investment Adviser undertakes to provide the Sub-Adviser with copies or other written notice of any amendments, modifications or supplements to the Fund’s Prospectuses and Statements of Additional Information, and the Sub-Adviser will not need to comply until a copy has been provided to the Sub-Adviser.

B. The Sub-Adviser is authorized to place orders for the purchase and sale of securities for the Fund with or through such brokers, dealers or banks as the Sub-Adviser may select and, subject to Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), review by the Adviser and the Trustees, and other applicable law, may pay commissions on transactions in excess of the amount of commissions another broker or dealer would have charged. The Sub-Adviser will seek best execution under the circumstances of the particular transaction taking into consideration the full range and quality of a broker’s services in placing brokerage including, among other things, the value of research provided as well as execution capability, commission rate, financial responsibility and responsiveness to the Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser may aggregate sales and purchase orders of securities or derivatives held in the Fund with similar orders being made simultaneously for other portfolios managed by the Sub-Adviser if, in the Sub-Adviser’s reasonable judgment, such aggregation shall result in an overall economic benefit to the Fund.

C. The Investment Adviser understands and agrees that the Sub-Adviser performs investment management services for various clients and may take action with respect to any of its other clients which may differ from action taken or from the timing or nature of action taken by the Sub-Adviser for the Fund. The Sub-Adviser’s authority hereunder shall not be impaired because of the fact that it may effect transactions with respect to securities for its own account or for the accounts of others which it manages which are identical or similar to securities to which it may effect transactions for the Fund at the same or similar times.

D. The Sub-Adviser will provide the Investment Adviser with copies of the Sub-Adviser’s current policies and procedures adopted in accordance with Rule 206(4)-7 under the Advisers Act. To the extent the Fund(s) are required by the 1940 Act to adopt any such policy or procedure, the Investment Adviser will submit such policy or procedure to the Trust’s Board of Trustees for adoption by each of the Funds, with such modifications or additions thereto as the Board of Trustees or the Investment Adviser may recommend with the concurrence of the Sub-Adviser.

E. The Sub-Adviser will maintain and preserve 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 Advisers Act and the rules thereunder and shall file with the SEC all forms pursuant to Section 13F and 13G of the Exchange Act, with respect to its duties as are set forth herein. The records relating to the services provided under this Agreement shall be the property of the Fund.

F. The Sub-Adviser will, unless and until otherwise directed by the Investment Adviser, exercise all rights of security holders with respect to securities held by each Fund, including, but not limited to: voting proxies in accordance with the Sub-Adviser’s then-current proxy voting policies.

G. The Sub-Adviser will make available and provide financial, accounting and statistical information concerning the Sub-Adviser required by the Fund in the preparation of registration statements, reports and other documents required by federal and state securities laws, and such other information as the Fund or the Investment Adviser may reasonably request for use in the preparation of such documents or of other materials necessary or helpful for the distribution of the Fund’s shares.

H. In the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser shall act in conformity with the Fund’s Prospectuses and Statements of Additional Information and with the instructions and directions of the Investment Adviser and of the Board of Trustees and will conform and comply with the applicable requirements of the 1940 Act, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations, as each is amended from time to time.

I. The Sub-Adviser at its expense will make available to the Trustees and the Investment Adviser at reasonable times its portfolio managers and other appropriate personnel, either in person or, at the mutual convenience of the Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, by telephone, in order to review the investment policies, performance and other investment related

information regarding a Fund and to consult with the Trustees of the Funds and Investment Adviser regarding each Fund’s investment affairs, including economic, statistical and investment matters related to the Sub-Adviser’s duties hereunder, and will provide periodic reports to the Investment Adviser or the Trustees relating to the investment strategies it employs. The Sub-Adviser and its personnel shall also cooperate fully with counsel and auditors for, and the Chief Compliance Officers of, the Investment Adviser and the Trust.

J. The Sub-Adviser will review draft reports to shareholders and other documents provided or available to it and provide comments on a timely basis. The Investment Adviser or the Fund will provide such documents to the Sub-Adviser in a reasonable timeframe prior to the due date. In addition, the Sub-Adviser and each officer and portfolio manager thereof designated by the Investment Adviser will provide on a timely basis such certifications or sub-certifications as the Investment Adviser or the Fund may reasonably request in order to support and facilitate certifications required to be provided by the Trust’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer.

4.	COMPENSATION OF SUB-ADVISER

The Investment Adviser will pay the Sub-Adviser as compensation for providing services in accordance with this Agreement those fees as set forth in Appendix B. The Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser agree that all fees shall become due and owing to the Sub-Adviser promptly after the termination date of the Sub-Adviser with respect to any Fund and that the amount of such fees shall be calculated by treating the termination date as the next fee computation date. The annual base fee will be prorated for such fees owed through the termination date.
