ACCOUNTING SERVICES AGREEMENT

This Accounting Services Agreement is made as of this      day of November, 2005 by and between Thrivent Mutual Funds, a Massachusetts business trust (the “Fund”) and Thrivent Asset Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TAM” “Administrator”).

WHEREAS, TAM has offered to provide fund accounting and pricing services to the Fund at a fair and reasonable price and the Fund desires to have TAM provide such services; and

WHEREAS, a majority of the Trustees of the Fund and a majority of the disinterested Trustees of the Fund have approved this Agreement between TAM and the Fund, and in so approving the Agreement made the following findings:

a. The Agreement is in the best interest of the Fund and its Shareholders;

b. The services to be performed pursuant to the Agreement are services required for the operation of the Fund;

c. TAM can provide services, the nature and quality of which are at least equal to those provided by others offering the same or similar services; and

d. The fees for such services are fair and reasonable in light of the usual and customary charges made by others for services of the same nature and quality.

WHEREAS, the Fund is authorized to issue shares in separate series with each such series representing interests in a separate portfolio of securities and other assets; and

WHEREAS, the Fund desires TAM to render the services to the Fund in the manner and on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth with respect to each of the Fund’s series identified on Schedule B attached hereto, as modified from time to time by the mutual consent of the parties.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Services. The Fund hereby engages TAM, and TAM accepts such engagement, to perform accounting and pricing services for the Fund as described in more detail on Schedule A, as the same may be modified from time to time by vote of a majority of the Fund’s Trustees including a majority of those who are not interested persons of TAM (the “Services”). The Fund agrees that TAM shall have ready access to the Fund’s agents, books, records, financial information, management and resources at such times and for such periods as TAM deems necessary to perform the Services.

4. Administrator Use of the Services of Others.

5. Ownership of Records. All records required to be maintained and preserved by the Fund pursuant to the provisions of rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 31(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”) and maintained and preserved by TAM on behalf of the Fund are the property of the Fund and will be surrendered by TAM promptly on request by the Fund.

6. Reports to Fund by TAM. TAM shall provide the Fund, at such times as the Fund may reasonably require, with reports relating to the Services provided by TAM under this Agreement. Such reports shall be of sufficient scope and in sufficient detail, as may reasonably be required by the Fund.
