SECTION 3. DUTIES OF THE SUBADVISER

(a)       The Subadviser will make decisions with respect to all purchases and sales of securities and other investment assets of the Allocated Assets. To carry out such decisions, the Subadviser is hereby authorized, as agent and attorney-in-fact for the Trust, for the account of, at the risk of and in the name of the Trust, to place orders and issue instructions with respect to the Allocated Assets. In all purchases, sales and other transactions in securities and other investments in the Allocated Assets, the Subadviser is authorized to exercise full discretion and act for the Trust in the same manner and with the same force and effect as the Trust might or could do with respect to such purchases, sales or other transactions, as well as with respect to all other things necessary or incidental to the furtherance or conduct of such purchases, sales or other transactions, including voting of proxies with respect to securities owned by the Fund, subject to such proxy voting policies as approved by the Board and including entering into such agreements (such as, but not limited to futures or other derivatives) as is deemed necessary by Subadviser to manage the Allocated Assets. All such investments will conform to investment objectives and guidelines as agreed to by the Subadviser and Adviser. The Subadviser shall have no responsibility under this Agreement with respect to the management of assets of the Fund other than the Allocated Assets.

Consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“1934 Act”) and applicable regulations and interpretations, the Subadviser, to the extent applicable, may allocate brokerage on behalf of the Fund to a broker-dealer who provides research services. Subject to compliance with Section 28(e), the Subadviser may cause Fund to pay to a broker-dealer who provides research services a commission that exceeds the commission the Fund might have paid to a different broker-dealer for the same transaction if the Subadviser determines, in good faith, that such amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of such brokerage or research services provided viewed in terms of that particular transaction or the Subadviser’s overall responsibilities to the Fund or its other advisory clients. The Subadviser may aggregate sales and purchase orders of the assets of the Fund with similar orders being made simultaneously for other accounts advised by the Subadviser or its affiliates. Whenever the Subadviser simultaneously places orders to purchase or sell the same asset on behalf of the Fund and one or more other accounts advised by the Subadviser, the Subadviser will allocate the order as to price and amount among all such accounts in a manner believed to be equitable over time to each account.

(b)       For purposes of communicating with the Board, reports made by the Subadviser to the Adviser will meet the standards of communication to the Board, and the Adviser will be responsible for delivering those reports to the Board. The Subadviser will report to the Board at each meeting thereof as reasonably requested by the Adviser or the Board all material changes in the Allocated Assets of the Fund since the prior report, and will also keep the Board informed of important developments affecting the Trust, the Fund and the Subadviser, and on its own initiative, or as reasonably requested by the Adviser or the Board, will furnish the Board from time to time with such information as the Subadviser may believe appropriate for this purpose, whether concerning the individual companies whose securities are included in the Fund’s holdings, the industries in which they engage, the economic, social or political conditions prevailing in each country in which the Fund maintains investments, or otherwise. The Subadviser will also furnish the Board with such statistical and analytical information with

- 3 -

respect to investments of the Fund as the Subadviser may believe appropriate or as the Adviser or the Board reasonably may request. In making purchases and sales of securities and other investment assets for the Fund, the Subadviser will comply with the directions and policies set from time to time by the Board as well as the limitations imposed by the Trust’s or the Fund’s policies and procedures, the Registration Statement, the 1940 Act, the Securities Act, the 1934 Act, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and other applicable laws. In making purchases and sales of securities and other investment assets for the Fund, the Subadviser is prohibited from consulting with other subadvisers to the Fund, except for the purpose of complying with the conditions of Rule 12d3-1(a) and (b) under the 1940 Act. The Adviser will provide reasonable notice to the Subadviser of any material changes to the Trust’s policies and procedures applicable to the Fund and the Prospectus.

(c)       The Subadviser will from time to time employ or associate with such persons as the Subadviser believes to be particularly fitted to assist in the execution of the Subadviser’s duties hereunder, the cost of performance of such duties to be borne and paid by the Subadviser. No obligation may be incurred on the Trust’s or Adviser’s behalf in any such respect. The Adviser acknowledges receipt of the Subadviser’s privacy notice, Form ADV, and any applicable brochure supplements.

(d)       The Subadviser will report to the Board all matters related to the Subadviser that are material to the Subadviser’s performance of this Agreement. On an annual basis, the Subadviser shall report on its compliance with its Code to the Adviser and to the Board. The Subadviser will notify the Adviser and the Trust of any change of control of the Subadviser and any changes in the key personnel who are either the portfolio manager(s) of the Allocated Assets or senior management of the Subadviser, in each case prior to or promptly after such change.

(e)       The Subadviser will maintain records relating to its portfolio transactions and placing and allocation of brokerage orders with respect to the Allocated Assets as are required to be maintained by the Trust under the 1940 Act. The Subadviser shall prepare and maintain, or cause to be prepared and maintained, in such form, for such periods and in such locations as may be required by applicable law, all documents and records relating to the services provided by the Subadviser pursuant to this Agreement required to be prepared and maintained by the Subadviser or the Trust pursuant to applicable law. To the extent required by law, the books and records pertaining to the Allocated Assets, which are in possession of the Subadviser, shall be the property of the Trust. The Adviser and the Trust, or their respective representatives, shall have reasonable access to such books and records upon two business days’ notice during the Subadviser’s normal business hours. Upon the reasonable request of the Adviser or the Trust, copies of any such books and records shall be provided promptly by the Subadviser to the Adviser and the Trust, or their respective representatives.

(f)       The Subadviser will cooperate with the Fund’s independent public accountants and shall take reasonable action to make all necessary information available to the accountants for the performance of the accountants’ duties.

(g)       The Subadviser will provide the Fund and the Fund’s custodian and fund accountant on each business day with such information relating to all transactions concerning the

- 4 -

Allocated Assets as the Fund and the Fund’s custodian and fund accountant may reasonably require, including but not limited to information required to be provided under the Trust’s Portfolio Securities Valuation Procedures; provided however the Subadviser is only assisting the Fund in its pricing responsibilities and shall not be deemed the pricing agent for the Fund.

(h)       The Subadviser shall have no duties or obligations pursuant to this Agreement (other than the continuation of its preexisting duties and obligations) during any period that the Adviser has not allocated any portion of the Fund’s assets to the Subadviser for management.

(i)       The Subadviser may invest Allocated Assets in registered, open-end, management investment companies for which the Subadviser serves as investment adviser or subadviser upon the prior notice to and consent of the Adviser, pursuant to the investment objectives and guidelines agreed to by the Subadviser and Adviser.

(j)       The Subadviser may effect transactions with respect to the Allocated Assets pursuant to Rules 17a-7 and 17e-1 of the 1940 if such transactions are effected in accordance with the Trust’s Rule 17a-7 Procedures and Rule 17e-1 Procedures.

(k)       The Subadviser, at its expense, will provide the Adviser with such compliance reports and certifications relating to its duties under this Agreement and the federal securities laws as may be agreed upon by such parties from time to time. The Subadviser also shall: (i) cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to the Adviser, the Trusts’ administrator, custodian, transfer agent and pricing agents and all other agents and representatives of the Fund, the Trust and the Adviser in carrying out their respective obligations to the Trust in respect of the Fund; (ii) keep all such persons fully informed as to such matters as they may reasonably deem necessary to the performance of their obligations to the Fund, the Trust and the Adviser; (iii) provide prompt responses to reasonable requests made by such persons; and (iv) maintain any appropriate interfaces with each so as to promote the efficient exchange of information.

(l)       The Subadviser will vote all proxies solicited by or with respect to the issuers of securities in which assets of the Fund may be invested from time to time and which constitute Allocated Assets in accordance with the Subadviser’s proxy voting policies and procedures, as approved by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Adviser acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Fund’s custodian is responsible for advising or taking action, including filing proof of claim forms, on behalf of the Fund in any legal proceedings, including bankruptcies or class actions, involving securities held in or formerly held in the Allocated Assets or the issuers of those securities and (ii) Subadviser will not be required to advise or take any action on behalf of the Fund in any such legal proceedings, subject to the next sentence. The Subadviser will, however, promptly forward any claim forms it receives to the Fund’s custodian and provide reasonable assistance to the extent necessary (e.g. provide factual information in its possession as the custodian, Fund or Adviser may reasonably request).

(m)       The Subadviser does not guarantee the future performance of the Fund or any specific level of performance, the success of any investment decision or strategy that Subadviser may use, or the success of Subadviser’s overall management of the Allocated Assets. The Adviser understands that investment decisions made for the Fund by Subadviser are subject to

- 5 -

various market, currency, economic, political, business and structural risks, and that those investment decisions will not always be profitable.

SECTION 4. COMPENSATION; EXPENSES

(a)       In consideration of the foregoing, the Adviser shall pay the Subadviser, with respect to the Allocated Assets, a fee at an annual rate as listed in Appendix B hereto. Such fees shall be accrued as outlined in Appendix B and shall be payable quarterly in arrears within 30 days of receipt of invoice for services performed hereunder during the prior calendar quarter. If fees begin to accrue in the middle of a quarter or if this Agreement terminates before the end of any quarter, all fees for the period from that date to the end of that quarter or from the beginning of that quarter to the date of termination, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion that the period bears to the full quarter in which the effectiveness or termination occurs. Upon termination of this Agreement with respect to the Fund, the Adviser shall pay to the Subadviser such compensation as shall be payable prior to the effective date of the termination.

(b)       No fee shall be payable hereunder with respect to that portion of the Allocated Assets which are invested in registered, open-end, management investment companies for which the Subadviser serves as investment adviser or subadviser and for which Subadviser already receives an advisory fee.

SECTION 5. STANDARD OF CARE

(a)       The Adviser shall expect of the Subadviser, and the Subadviser will give the Adviser the benefit of, the Subadviser’s best judgment and efforts in rendering its services hereunder. The Subadviser shall not be liable hereunder to the Adviser or the Trust for any mistake of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or omission or in any event whatsoever with respect to the Trust, the Fund or any of the Fund’s shareholders in the absence of bad faith, willful misfeasance or gross negligence in the performance of the Subadviser’s duties or obligations under this Agreement or by reason of the Subadviser’s reckless disregard of its duties and obligations under this Agreement. The Subadviser acknowledges that federal securities laws impose liabilities under certain circumstances on persons who have a fiduciary duty toward their clients and, therefore, nothing herein shall in any way constitute a waiver or limitation of any rights which the Adviser or the Trust may have under any federal securities laws.

(b)       The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser or the Trust for any action taken or failure to act in good faith reliance upon: (i) information, instructions or requests, whether oral or written, with respect to the Fund made to the Subadviser by a duly authorized officer of the Adviser or the Trust; (ii) the advice of counsel to the Trust; and (iii) any written instruction or certified copy of any resolution of the Board.

(c)       The Subadviser shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in performance of its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control including, without limitation, acts of

- 6 -

civil or military authority, national emergencies, labor difficulties (other than those related to the Subadviser’s employees), fire, mechanical breakdowns, flood or catastrophe, acts of God, insurrection, war, riots or failure of the mails, transportation, communication or power supply.

(d)       The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Trust is a third-party beneficiary as to the covenants, obligations, representations and warranties undertaken by the Subadviser under this Agreement and as to the rights and privileges to which the Adviser is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, and that the Trust is entitled to all of the rights and privileges associated with such third-party-beneficiary status.

(b)       This Agreement shall remain in effect with respect to the Fund for a period of two years from the date of its effectiveness and shall continue in effect for successive annual periods with respect to the Fund; provided that such continuance is specifically approved at least annually (i) by the Board or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, and, in either case, (ii) by a majority of the Trust’s Trustees who are not interested persons (as defined in the 1940 Act); provided further, however, that if the continuation of this Agreement is not approved as to the Fund, the Subadviser may continue to render to the Fund the services described herein in the manner and to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

(c)       This Agreement may be terminated by the Fund if the Board of Trustees of the Trust, in its reasonable discretion and having due regard to the protection of investors and to the effectuation of the policies declared in section 1(b) of the 1940 Act, find that the services being rendered by the Subadviser under this Agreement, fail in a material way to provide responsible management to the Fund as reasonably expected by an investment adviser, as defined in the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”); provided that the Subadviser shall have the opportunity, within ten (10) days of receipt of a written notice describing any such failure and the reasons therefor in reasonable detail, to cure the failure that is the subject of such notice.

(d)       This Agreement may be terminated with respect to a Fund at any time, without the payment of any penalty, (i) by the Board, by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund or by the Adviser or (ii) by the Subadviser on 60 days’ written notice to the Trust.
