WHEREAS, the Fund and Adviser desire to retain Sub-adviser as sub-adviser to furnish certain investment advisory services to Adviser and the Portfolio and Sub-adviser is willing to furnish such services;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual promises herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
| I. | Appointment. (A) Adviser hereby appoints Sub-adviser as its investment sub-adviser with respect to the Portfolio for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement, and (B) Sub-adviser hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to render the services herein set forth, for the compensation herein provided. Such appointment shall apply to such portion of the Funds assets as is allocated to the Sub-adviser by the Adviser from time to time in the sole discretion of the Adviser.

In the event that the Fund establishes one or more series of shares other than the Portfolio with respect to which Adviser desires to retain Sub-adviser to render investment advisory services hereunder, Adviser shall so notify Sub-adviser in writing, indicating the advisory fee to be payable with respect to the additional series of shares. If Sub-adviser is willing to render such services on the terms provided for herein, it shall so notify Adviser in writing, whereupon such series shall become a Portfolio hereunder. |

Sub-adviser shall perform these duties subject always to (1) the overall supervision of Adviser and the Board of Directors of the Fund (the Board), (2) the Funds Articles and By-laws (as defined below), as amended from time to time, (3) the stated investment objectives, policies and restrictions of the Portfolio as set forth in the Funds then current Registration Statement (as defined below), (4) any additional policies or guidelines established by Adviser or Board that have been furnished in writing to Sub-adviser, (5) applicable provisions of law, including, without limitation, all applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, and (6) the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) applicable to regulated investment companies (as defined in Section 851 of the Code), as amended from time to time.
