WHEREAS, Dimensional has entered into Investment Management Agreements with the Fund, on behalf of the Portfolios, pursuant to which Dimensional provides various services for the Portfolios, and for which Dimensional is compensated based on the average net assets of such Portfolios; and

2.
Duty to Reimburse Dimensional. If, at any time, the Portfolio Expenses are less than the applicable Expense Limitation Amount of an ETF Class of a Portfolio, the Fund, on behalf of the Portfolio, shall reimburse Dimensional for any fees previously waived and/or expenses previously assumed to the extent that such reimbursement will not cause the annualized Portfolio Expenses for the ETF Class of the Portfolio to exceed the applicable Expense Limitation Amount identified above. There shall be no obligation of the Fund, on behalf of a Portfolio, to reimburse Dimensional for fees waived or expenses previously assumed by Dimensional more than thirty-six (36) months prior to the date of any reimbursement.

3.
Assignment. No assignment of this Agreement shall be made by Dimensional without the prior consent of the Fund.

4.

This Agreement shall begin on [        ], 2025, and shall continue in effect until February 28, 2027 for the ETF Class of each Portfolio, and shall continue in effect from year to year thereafter for the ETF Class of a Portfolio, unless and until the Fund or Dimensional notifies the other party to the Agreement, at least thirty days (30) prior to the end of the one-year period, of its intention to terminate the Agreement for the ETF Class of the Portfolio. This Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the termination of the Investment Management Agreement between Dimensional and the Fund, on behalf of such Portfolio.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.
