RE:

Dear Sirs and Madams:

As provided in the Investment Management Agreement between PIMCO ETF Trust (the “Trust”) and Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”), dated April 24, 2009 (the “Agreement”), the parties may amend the Agreement to add additional series of the Trust, under the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Agreement, and at a fee rate set forth in Schedule A to the Agreement, as may be amended from time to time.

The Trust and PIMCO hereby agree to amend the Agreement as of the date hereof to add the Fund to Schedule A. The current Schedule A is replaced with the new Schedule A attached hereto.

This Supplement and the Agreement shall become effective with respect to the Fund on February 8, 2023 and shall continue in effect for a period not to exceed two years from the effective date of this Supplement and shall continue thereafter on an annual basis with respect to the Fund only so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by (a) the Trust’s Board of Trustees or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)) of the Fund, and (b) the vote, cast in accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act and the rules and any applicable Securities and Exchange Commission guidance or relief thereunder at a meeting called for such purpose, of a majority of the Trust’s Trustees who are not parties to the Contract or “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of any such party. This Supplement and the Contract shall terminate automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act). This Supplement and the Contract may be terminated with respect to the Fund at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund or by a vote of a majority of the Trust’s entire Board of Trustees on 60 days’ written notice to the Adviser or by the Adviser on 60 days’ written notice to the Trust.

Each Fund may invest in shares of PIMCO Funds: Private Account Portfolio Series – PIMCO Short-Term Floating NAV Portfolio III and PIMCO Funds: Private Account Portfolio Series – PIMCO Short Asset Portfolio, each a series of PIMCO Funds (the “PAPS Central Funds”). The PAPS Central Funds are offered only to series of the Trust (each an “Investing Fund”) or other series of registered investment companies for which PIMCO serves as investment adviser. The PAPS Central Funds, and their wholly-owned subsidiaries (if any), do not pay an investment advisory fee to PIMCO. By investing in a PAPS Central Fund, each Investing Fund agrees that 0.005% of the fee that each Investing Fund is currently obligated to pay PIMCO, as indicated on this Schedule A, will be designated as compensation for the investment advisory services PIMCO provides to the applicable PAPS Central Fund, and its wholly-owned subsidiary (if any), under the investment management agreement with PIMCO.


If the foregoing correctly sets forth the Agreement between the Trust and PIMCO, please so indicate by signing, dating and returning to the Trust the enclosed copy hereof.

 

Very truly yours,
PIMCO ETF TRUST
