7. As full compensation for all services rendered, facilities furnished and
expenses borne by the Manager hereunder, the Fund shall pay the Manager
compensation in an amount equal to the annual rate of 0.90% of the average
daily net assets of the Series, (or such lesser amount as the Manager may from
time to time agree to receive) minus any fees payable by the Fund, with respect
to the period in question, to any one or more Sub-Advisers pursuant to any
Sub-Advisory Agreements in effect with respect to such period. Such
compensation shall be payable monthly in arrears or at such other intervals,
not less frequently than quarterly, as the Board of Trustees of the Fund may
from time to time determine and specify in writing to the Manager. The Manager
hereby acknowledges that the Fund's obligation to pay such compensation is
