Total Return Portfolios, which shall consist of EQ/Quality Bond PLUS Portfolio* and Other Allocated Portion(s)** identified directly below (collectively, referred to as “Total Return Portfolios”): Multimanager Core Bond Portfolio*, ** Multimanager Multi-Sector Bond Portfolio*, **	0.25% of the Total Return Portfolios’ average daily net assets. Once Aggregate Assets**** managed by Manager and advised by Adviser equal or exceed $3 billion in aggregate, the following fee schedule applies to the Total Return Portfolios: 0.25% of the Total Return Portfolios’ average daily net assets up to and including $1 billion; and 0.225 of the Total Return Portfolios’ average daily net assets above $1 billion.
Portfolio	Annual Advisory Fee

EQ/Real Estate PLUS Portfolio*	0.49% of the Allocated Portion’s average daily net assets.

* Fee to be paid with respect to this Portfolio shall be based only on the portion of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets advised by the Adviser, which may be referred to as an “Allocated Portion.”

** Other Allocated Portions are other investment companies (or series or portions thereof) that are managed by the Manager and advised by the Adviser, which are classified as “Total Return Portfolios.” Whether an additional portfolio(s) meets the definition of “Other Allocated Portions” must be mutually agreed upon by the Parties.

*** The daily advisory fee for the Total Return Portfolios is calculated by multiplying the aggregate net assets of the Total Return Portfolios at the close of the immediately preceding day by the Annual Advisory Fee Rate calculated as set forth above and then dividing the result by the number of days in the year.

**** “Aggregate Assets” shall refer to the assets of the following subadvised portfolios managed by Adviser: EQ/Quality Bond PLUS Portfolio, Multimanager Core Bond Portfolio, Multimanager Multi-Sector Bond Portfolio, EQ/PIMCO Ultra Short Bond Portfolio, EQ/PIMCO Global Real Return Portfolio, and EQ/Real Estate PLUS Portfolio.
