APPENDIX A
The Subadviser shall serve as investment subadviser for the Portfolio of
the Trust listed below. The Adviser will pay the Subadviser, as full
compensation for all services provided under this Agreement with respect to the
Portfolio, the fee computed separately for the Portfolio at an annual rate as
follows (the "Subadviser Fee"):
BETWEEN
FIRST $500 MILLION $500 MILLION AND
OF AGGREGATE NET $750 MILLION OF AGGREGATE EXCESS OF $750 MILLION
PORTFOLIO ASSETS* NET ASSETS* OF AGGREGATE NET ASSETS*
--------- ------------------ ------------------------- ------------------------
Global Real Estate Trust.......
* The term Aggregate Net Assets includes the net assets of the Portfolio of
the Trust. It also includes with respect to the Portfolio the net assets of
one or more other portfolios as indicated below, but in each case only for
the period during which the Subadviser for the Portfolio also serves as the
subadviser for the other portfolio(s). For purposes of determining
Aggregate Net Assets and calculating the Subadviser Fee, the net assets of
the Portfolio and each other portfolio of the Trust are determined as of
the close of business on the previous business day of the Trust, and the
net assets of each portfolio of each other fund are determined as of the
close of business on the previous business day of that fund.

The Subadviser Fee for the Portfolio shall be equal to (i) the total fee
determined by applying the annual percentage rates in the table above to the
Aggregate Net Assets times (ii) the net assets for such Portfolio, divided by
(iii) the Aggregate Net Assets (the "Applicable Annual Fee"). The Subadviser Fee
for the Portfolio shall be accrued for each calendar day, and the sum of the
daily fee accruals shall be paid monthly to the Subadviser within 30 calendar
days of the end of each month. The daily fee accruals will be computed by
multiplying the fraction of one over the number of calendar days in the year by
the Applicable Annual Fee. The Adviser shall provide Subadviser with such
information as Subadviser may reasonably request supporting the calculation of
the fees paid to it hereunder. Fees shall be paid either by wire transfer or
check, as directed by Subadviser.
If, with respect to the Portfolio, this Agreement becomes effective or
terminates, or if the manner of determining the Applicable Annual Fee changes,
before the end of any month, the fee (if any) for the period from the effective
date to the end of such month or from the beginning of such month to the date of
termination or from the beginning of such month to the date such change, as the
case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period
bears to the full month in which such effectiveness or termination or change
occurs.
