INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT, made this 24th day of
April, 2009, between PIMCO ETF Trust (the "Trust"), a
Delaware statutory trust, and Pacific Investment Management
Company LLC ("PIMCO").
WHEREAS, the Trust is registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as an open-
end management investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940
Act"); and
WHEREAS, the Trust is authorized to issue shares of
beneficial interest ("Shares") in separate series which are
listed in the attached Schedule A (as amended from time to
time), with each such series representing interests in a
separate portfolio of securities and other assets; and
WHEREAS, the Trust desires to retain PIMCO to
render investment advisory and supervisory and
administrative services hereunder with respect to the series
listed in Schedule A together with any other series
subsequently established by the Trust, and with respect to
which PIMCO is willing to do so, being herein collectively
referred to also as the "Funds"; and
WHEREAS, the Trust engages in the business of
investing and reinvesting the assets of each Fund in the
manner and in accordance with the investment objective
and restrictions applicable to that Fund as specified in the
currently effective Prospectus (the "Prospectus") for the
Trust included in the registration statements, as amended
from time to time (the "Registration Statement"), filed by
the Trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the
"1940 Act") and the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933
Act"); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to a Distribution Contract (the
"Distribution Contract"), between the Trust and Allianz
Global Investors Distributors LLC (the "Distributor"), the
Funds have employed the Distributor to serve as principal
underwriter for the shares of beneficial interest of the Trust;
and
WHEREAS, PIMCO is willing to furnish investment
advisory and supervisory and administrative services and/or
to arrange for such services in the manner and on the terms
hereinafter set forth; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the
parties agree as follows:
1. Appointment. The Trust hereby appoints
PIMCO to provide the investment advisory services and to
provide or procure the supervisory and administrative and
other services as specified in this Agreement and PIMCO
hereby accepts such appointment.
2. Duties. (a) PIMCO shall, at its expense,
(i) employ or associate with itself such persons as it
believes appropriate to assist it in performing its obligations
under this Agreement and (ii) provide all services,
equipment and facilities necessary to perform its
obligations under this Agreement. PIMCO may from time
to time seek research assistance and rely on investment
management resources available to it through its affiliated
companies, but in no case shall such reliance relieve
PIMCO of any of its obligations hereunder, nor shall the
Trust be responsible for any additional fees or expenses
hereunder as a result.
3. Investment Advisory Services. (a)
PIMCO shall provide to the Trust investment
guidance and policy direction in connection with the
management of the Funds, including oral and written
research, analysis, advice, and statistical and economic data
and information.
Consistent with the investment objectives,
policies and restrictions applicable to the Trust and its
Funds, PIMCO will determine the securities and other
assets to be purchased or sold or the other techniques to be
utilized (including, but not limited to, securities lending) by
each Fund of the Trust and will determine what portion of
each Fund shall be invested in securities or other assets,
and what portion, if any, should be held uninvested.
The Trust will have the benefit of the
investment analysis and research, the review of current
economic conditions and trends and the consideration of
long-range investment policy generally available to
investment advisory clients of PIMCO. It is understood that
PIMCO will not, to the extent inconsistent with applicable
law, use any material nonpublic information pertinent to
investment decisions undertaken in connection with this
Agreement that may be in its possession or in the
possession of any of its affiliates.
(b) As manager of the assets of the
Funds, PIMCO shall make investments for the account of
the Funds in accordance with PIMCO's best judgment and
within the investment objectives, policies, and restrictions
set forth in the Prospectus, the 1940 Act, any SEC
exemptive relief and the provisions of the Internal Revenue
Code relating to regulated investment companies, subject to
policy decisions adopted by the Trust's Board of Trustees.
(c) PIMCO shall furnish to the Trust's
Board of Trustees periodic reports on the investment
performance of the Trust and its Funds and on the
performance of its investment advisory obligations under
this Agreement and shall supply such additional reports and
information as the Trust's officers or Board of Trustees
shall reasonably request.
(d) On occasions when PIMCO deems
the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interest of
a Fund as well as other of its clients, PIMCO, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, may aggregate the securities
to be so sold or purchased in order to obtain the best
execution of the order or lower brokerage commissions, if
any. PIMCO may also on occasion purchase or sell a
particular security for one or more clients in different
amounts. On either occasion, and to the extent permitted by
applicable law and regulations, allocation of the securities
so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the
transaction, will be made by PIMCO in the manner it
considers to be equitable and consistent with its fiduciary
obligations to the Trust and to such other customers.
(e) PIMCO may cause a Fund to pay a
broker which provides brokerage and research services to
PIMCO a commission for effecting a securities transaction
in excess of the amount another broker might have charged.
Such higher commissions may not be paid unless PIMCO
determines in good faith that the amount paid is reasonable
in relation to the services received in terms of the particular
transaction or PIMCO's overall responsibilities to the Trust
and any other of PIMCO's clients.
(f) PIMCO may itself, or may cause a
Fund to, commence, join in, consent to or oppose the
reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, sale, merger,
foreclosure, liquidation or readjustment of the finances of
any person or the securities or other property thereof, and
to deposit any securities or other property with any
protective, reorganization or similar committee. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, PIMCO may
represent a Fund on a creditors' (or similar) committee.
(g) PIMCO shall have sole authority to
exercise whatever powers the Trust may possess with
respect to any of the assets of a Fund, including, but not
limited to, the right to vote proxies, the power to exercise
rights, options, warrants, conversion privileges and
redemption privileges, and to tender securities pursuant to a
tender offer.
4. Supervisory and Administrative Services.
Subject to the general supervision of the Board of Trustees,
PIMCO shall provide or cause to be furnished all
supervisory and administrative and other services
reasonably necessary for the operation of the Funds, but not
including the distribution services provided by the

for Shares of a Fund.

Funds, at PIMCO's expense, with adequate
personnel, office space, communications
facilities, and other facilities necessary for
the effective supervision and administration
of the Funds as contemplated in this
Agreement as well as provide the Funds, at

maintain registration of the Funds' Shares in
such other jurisdictions as it deems

shall maintain systems necessary to provide
or procure required disclosure in the Funds'

(vii) PIMCO shall take such other
action with respect to the Funds as may be
required by applicable law, including
without limitation the rules and regulations
of the SEC, the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission, state securities commissions
and other governmental and regulatory
agencies. Such actions shall include, but are
not limited to: establishment and
maintenance of a compliance program in
accordance with Rule 38a-1 under the 1940
Act, support of the Funds' Chief
Compliance Officer, and systems and
procedures necessary to effectuate the
compliance program.
(viii) PIMCO shall provide the
Funds with administrative services to
shareholders, including: the maintenance of
a shareholder call center; the provision of
certain statistical information and
performance of the Funds; a web servicing

Board of Trustees, and with the provisions

Board of Trustees with respect to the Funds
such periodic and special reports as the
Trustees may reasonably request.
5. Calculation of Fees. In consideration of the
services to be rendered by PIMCO under this Agreement,
each Fund of the Trust shall pay PIMCO a monthly fee on
the first business day of each month, based upon the
average daily value (as determined on each business day at
the time set forth in the Prospectus for determining net
asset value per share) of the net assets of the Fund, as
applicable, during the preceding month, at the annual rates
provided for in Schedule A, as such Schedule A may be
amended from time to time.
If the fees payable to PIMCO pursuant to
this Section 5 begin to accrue before the end of any month
or if this Agreement terminates before the end of any
month, the fees for the period from that date to the end of
that month or from the beginning of that month to the date
of termination, as the case may be, shall be pro-rated
according to the proportion which the period bears to the
full month in which the effectiveness or termination occurs.
For purposes of calculating the monthly fees, the value of
the net assets of each Fund shall be computed in the
manner specified in the Prospectus for the computation of
net asset value. For purposes of this Agreement, a
"business day" is any day the New York Stock Exchange is
open for trading.
6. Allocation of Expenses. During the term of
this Agreement, PIMCO will pay all expenses incurred by
it in connection with its obligations under this Agreement,
except such expenses as are assumed by the Funds under
this Agreement. In addition, PIMCO shall bear the

independent public accountants;
(b) Expenses of the Trust's transfer
agent, registrar, dividend disbursing agent, and shareholder
recordkeeping services;

services, including any recordkeeping services provided by
the custodian;

calculating the value of each Fund's net assets;

to do business, the expenses of issuing, redeeming,
registering and qualifying for sale, Shares with federal and

and listing Shares with any securities exchange or other
trading system;
(h) The Trust's ordinary legal fees,
including the legal fees that arise in the ordinary course of
business for a Delaware statutory trust registered as an
open-end management investment company and listed for
trading with a securities exchange or other trading system;

representing Shares of the Trust;
(j) The Trust's pro rata portion of the

with respect to any additional fund, the date of the
amendment or Supplement hereto) and shall continue in
effect with respect to a Fund for a period of more than two
years from that date (or, with respect to any additional

employees shall be subject to any liability for, or any
damages, expenses or losses incurred in connection with,
any act or omission or mistake in judgment connected with

duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of PIMCO's
obligations and duties under this Agreement. This provision
shall govern only the liability to the Trust of PIMCO and
that of its members, officers, directors, and employees, and
shall in no way govern the liability to the Trust or PIMCO
or provide a defense for any other person including persons
that provide services for the Funds as described in this
Agreement.

the Trust under this contract are not to be deemed exclusive

invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise with
regard to any party, hereunder, such provisions with respect
