Fund Management

INVESTMENT ADVISER

Sit Investment Associates, Inc. (the “Adviser”), 3300 IDS Center, 80 South Eighth Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402, is the Funds’ investment adviser. The Adviser was founded in 1981 and provides investment management services for both public and private clients. As of May 31, 2008, the Adviser and its affiliates had approximately $8.0 billion in assets under management, including approximately $1.8 billion for the 12 Sit Mutual Funds.

 

Under Investment Management Agreements between each Fund and the Adviser (the “Agreements”), the Adviser manages each Fund’s business and investment activities, subject to the authority of the board of directors. A discussion regarding the basis of the board of directors’ approval of the Agreements is available in the Stock Funds Semi-Annual Report dated December 31, 2006. The Agreements require the Adviser to bear each Fund’s expenses, except fees paid under a distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Class S shares of Sit Dividend Growth Fund, interest, brokerage commissions and transaction charges, acquired fund fees and expenses, and certain extraordinary expenses. Each Fund pays the Adviser a monthly fee for its services. During their fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, after taking into account voluntary fee waivers, the Funds paid the following advisory fees to the Adviser:

 

 

Advisory fee as a % of Fund
average daily net assets

Balanced Fund

1.00%

Large Cap Growth Fund

1.00%

Mid Cap Growth Fund

    1.15% (1)

International Growth Fund

    1.50% (1)

Small Cap Growth Fund

1.50%

Developing Markets Growth Fund

2.00%

Dividend Growth Fund – Class I shares

1.00%

Dividend Growth Fund – Class S shares (2)

1.00%

 

(1)

Net of voluntary fee waivers. The contractual fees (without waivers) for the Mid Cap Growth and International Growth Funds are 1.25% and 1.85% per year, respectively, of the Fund’s average daily net assets. After December 31, 2008, these voluntary fee waivers may be terminated at any time by the Adviser.

(2)

Class S of the Fund commenced operations on March 31, 2006; therefore the fee shown above is the contractual fee the Fund will be obligated to pay to the Adviser.
