(the “Fund”) and you relating to each of the following series of the Fund’s shares: GAM International Equity; GAM Asia-Pacific Equity; GAM European Equity and GAMerica (the “Covered Funds”), and (ii) our letter to you dated as of even date, which confirms your engagement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, as investment adviser to the Covered Funds on an interim basis (as described in Rule 15a-4 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”)). All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Investment Advisory Agreement.

          The Fund hereby confirms your engagement as investment adviser to the Covered Funds, subject to the following terms and conditions:

          1.          Your engagement hereunder as investment adviser to a Covered Fund shall become effective with respect to such Covered Fund as of the date (the “Effective Date”) on which this engagement has first been approved by (1) the Board of Directors of the Fund, including a majority of the Directors of the Fund who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund, and (2) the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Covered Fund.
