and

WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS,
the Trust is an
open-end management investment company, registered as such under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act"); and
WHEREAS,
the Fund is a series
of the Trust having separate assets and liabilities; and
WHEREAS,
the Advisor is
registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940
(the "Advisers Act") and is engaged in the business of supplying investment
advice as an independent contractor; and
WHEREAS,
the Trust desires to
retain the Advisor to render advice and services to the Fund pursuant to the
terms and provisions of this Agreement, and the Advisor desires to furnish
said
advice and services;
NOW,
THEREFORE, in
consideration of the covenants and the mutual promises hereinafter set forth,
the parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound hereby, mutually
agree as follows:
1.
APPOINTMENT OF ADVISOR. The
Trust hereby employs the Advisor and the Advisor hereby accepts such employment,
to render investment advice and related services with respect to the assets
of
the Fund for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement, subject
to
the supervision and direction of the Trust's Board of Trustees.
2.
DUTIES OF ADVISOR.
(a)
GENERAL DUTIES. The
Advisor shall act as investment adviser to the Fund and shall supervise
investments of the Fund on behalf of the Fund in accordance with the investment
objectives, policies and restrictions of the Fund as set forth in the Fund's
and
Trust's governing documents, including, without limitation, the Trust's
Agreement and Declaration of Trust and By-Laws; the Fund's prospectus, statement
of additional information and undertakings; and such other limitations, policies
and procedures as the Trustees may impose from time to time in writing to the
Advisor. In providing such services, the Advisor shall at all times
adhere to the provisions and restrictions contained in the federal securities
laws, applicable state securities laws, the Internal Revenue Code, the Uniform
Commercial Code and other applicable law.
Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Advisor shall: (i) furnish
the Fund with advice and recommendations with respect to the investment of
the
Fund's assets and the purchase and sale of portfolio securities for the Fund,
including the taking of such steps as may be necessary to implement such advice
and recommendations (i.e., placing the orders); (ii) manage and oversee the
investments of the Fund, subject to the ultimate supervision and direction
of
the Trust's Board of Trustees; (iii) vote proxies for the Fund, file
ownership reports under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for
the Fund, and take other actions on behalf of the Fund; (iv) maintain the
books and records required to be maintained by the Fund except to the extent
arrangements have been made for such books and records to be maintained by
the
administrator or another agent of the Fund; (v) furnish reports, statements
and other data on securities, economic conditions and other matters related
to
the investment of the Fund's assets which the Fund's administrator or
distributor or the officers of the Trust may reasonably request; and
(vi) render to the Trust's Board of Trustees such periodic and special
reports with respect to each Fund's investment activities as the Board may
reasonably request, including at least one in-person appearance annually before
the Board of Trustees.
(b)
BROKERAGE. The Advisor
shall be responsible for decisions to buy and sell securities for the Fund,
for
broker-dealer selection, and for negotiation of brokerage commission rates,
provided that the Advisor shall not direct orders to an affiliated person of
the
Advisor without general prior authorization to use such affiliated broker or
dealer for the Trust's Board of Trustees. The Advisor's primary consideration
in
effecting a securities transaction will be execution at the most favorable
price. In selecting a broker-dealer to execute each particular transaction,
the
Advisor may take the following into consideration: the best net price available;
the reliability, integrity and financial condition of the broker-dealer; the
size of and difficulty in executing the order; and the value of the expected
contribution of the broker-dealer to the investment performance of the Fund
on a
continuing basis. The price to the Fund in any transaction may be less favorable
than that available from another broker-dealer if the difference is reasonably
justified by other aspects of the portfolio execution services offered.
Subject
to such policies as the Board of Trustees of the Trust may determine and
consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, the Advisor shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have
breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of
its
having caused the Fund to pay a broker or dealer that provides (directly or
indirectly) brokerage or research services to the Advisor an amount of
commission for effecting a portfolio transaction in excess of the amount of
commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that
transaction, if the Advisor determines in good faith that such amount of
commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research
services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that
particular transaction or the Advisor's overall responsibilities with respect
to
the Trust. Subject to the same policies and legal provisions, the Advisor is
further authorized to allocate the orders placed by it on behalf of the Fund
to
such brokers or dealers who also provide research or statistical material,
or
other services, to the Trust, the Advisor, or any affiliate of either. Such
allocation shall be in such amounts and proportions as the Advisor shall
determine, and the Advisor shall report on such allocations regularly to the
Trust, indicating the broker-dealers to whom such allocations have been made
and
the basis therefore.
On
occasions when the Advisor deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in
the
best interest of the Fund as well as of other clients, the Advisor, to the
extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, may aggregate the
securities to be so purchased or sold in order to obtain the most favorable
price or lower brokerage commissions and the most efficient execution. In such
event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Advisor in the manner
it considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its fiduciary
obligations to the Fund and to such other clients.
3.

contractor, and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided and authorized to
do
so, have no authority to act for or represent the Trust or the Fund in any
way,
or in any way be deemed an agent for the Trust or for the Fund. It is expressly
understood and agreed that the services to be rendered by the Advisor to the
Fund under the provisions of this Agreement are not to be deemed exclusive,
and
the Advisor shall be free to render similar or different services to others
so
long as its ability to render the services provided for in this Agreement shall
not be impaired thereby.
5.
ADVISOR'S PERSONNEL. The
Advisor shall, at its own expense, maintain such staff and employ or retain
such
personnel and consult with such other persons as it shall from time to time
determine to be necessary to the performance of its obligations under this

(d)
To
the extent the Advisor incurs any costs by assuming expenses which are an
obligation of the Fund as set forth herein, the Fund shall promptly reimburse
the Advisor for such costs and expenses, except to the extent the Advisor has
otherwise agreed to bear such expenses. To the extent the services for which
a
Fund is obligated to pay are performed by the Advisor, the Advisor shall be
entitled to recover from such Fund to the extent of the Advisor's actual costs

7.
INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND MANAGEMENT FEE.
(a)
The
Fund shall pay to the Advisor, and the Advisor agrees to accept, as full
compensation for all investment management and advisory services furnished
or
provided to such Fund pursuant to this Agreement, an annual management fee
at
the rate set forth in Schedule A to this Agreement.
(b)
The
management fee shall be accrued daily by the Fund and paid to the Advisor on
the
first business day of the succeeding month.
(c)
The
initial fee under this Agreement shall be payable on the first business day
of
the first month following the effective date of this Agreement and shall be
prorated as set forth below. If this Agreement is terminated prior to the end
of
any month, the fee to the Advisor shall be prorated for the portion of any
month
in which this Agreement is in effect which is not a complete month according
to
the proportion which the number of calendar days in the month during which
the
Agreement is in effect bears to the number of calendar days in the month, and
shall be payable within ten (10) days after the date of termination.
(d)
The
fee payable to the Advisor under this Agreement will be reduced to the extent
of
any receivable owed by the Advisor to the Fund and as required under any expense
limitation applicable to a Fund.
(e)
The
Advisor voluntarily may reduce any portion of the compensation or reimbursement
of expenses due to it pursuant to this Agreement and may agree to make payments
to limit the expenses which are the responsibility of a Fund under this
Agreement. Any such reduction or payment shall be applicable only to such
specific reduction or payment and shall not constitute an agreement to reduce
any future compensation or reimbursement due to the Advisor hereunder or to
continue future payments. Any such reduction will be agreed to prior to accrual
of the related expense or fee and will be estimated daily and reconciled and
paid on a monthly basis.
(f)
Any
such reductions made by the Advisor in its fees or payment of expenses which
are
the Fund's obligation are subject to reimbursement by the Fund to the Advisor,
if so requested by the Advisor, in subsequent fiscal years if the aggregate
amount actually paid by the Fund toward the operating expenses for such fiscal
year (taking into account the reimbursement) does not exceed the applicable
limitation on Fund expenses. Under the expense limitation agreement, the Advisor
may recoup reimbursements made in any fiscal year of the Fund over the following
three fiscal years. Any such reimbursement is also contingent upon
Board of Trustees review and approval at time the reimbursement is made. Such
reimbursement may not be paid prior to the Fund's payment of current ordinary
operating expenses.
(g)
The
Advisor may agree not to require payment of any portion of the compensation
or
reimbursement of expenses otherwise due to it pursuant to this Agreement. Any
such agreement shall be applicable only with respect to the specific items
covered thereby and shall not constitute an agreement not to require payment
of
any future compensation or reimbursement due to the Advisor hereunder.
8.
NO SHORTING; NO BORROWING.
The Advisor agrees that neither it nor any of its officers or employees shall
take any short position in the shares of the Fund. This prohibition shall not
prevent the purchase of such shares by any of the officers or employees of
the
Advisor or any trust, pension, profit-sharing or other benefit plan for such
persons or affiliates thereof, at a price not less than the net asset value
thereof at the time of purchase, as allowed pursuant to rules promulgated under
the Investment Company Act. The Advisor agrees that neither it nor any of its
officers or employees shall borrow from the Fund or pledge or use the Fund's
assets in connection with any borrowing not directly for the Fund's benefit.
For
this purpose, failure to pay any amount due and payable to the Fund for a period
of more than thirty (30) days shall constitute a borrowing.
9.
CONFLICTS WITH TRUST'S GOVERNING
DOCUMENTS AND APPLICABLE LAWS. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed
to require the Trust or the Fund to take any action contrary to the Trust's
Agreement and Declaration of Trust, By-Laws, or any applicable statute or
regulation, or to relieve or deprive the Board of Trustees of the Trust of
its
responsibility for and control of the conduct of the affairs of the Trust and
Fund. In this connection, the Advisor acknowledges that the Trustees retain
ultimate plenary authority over the Fund and may take any and all actions
necessary and reasonable to protect the interests of shareholders.
10.
REPORTS AND ACCESS. The
Advisor agrees to supply such information to the Fund's administrator and to
permit such compliance inspections by the Fund's administrator as shall be
reasonably necessary to permit the administrator to satisfy its obligations
and
respond to the reasonable requests of the Trustees.
11.
ADVISOR'S LIABILITIES AND INDEMNIFICATION.
(a)
The
Advisor shall have responsibility for the accuracy and completeness (and
liability for the lack thereof) of the statements in the Fund's offering
materials (including the prospectus, the statement of additional information,
advertising and sales materials), except for information supplied by the
administrator or the Trust or another third party for inclusion therein.
(b)
The
Advisor shall be liable to the Fund for any loss (including brokerage charges)
incurred by the Fund as a result of any investments made by the Advisor, which
are not in compliance with the current Prospectus, Statement of Additional
Information, or federal securities laws.
(c)
In
the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence, or reckless disregard
of the obligations or duties hereunder on the part of the Advisor, the Advisor
shall not be subject to liability to the Trust or the Fund or to any shareholder
of the Fund for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with,
rendering services hereunder or for any losses that may be sustained in the
purchase, holding or sale of any security by the Fund. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, federal securities laws and certain state laws impose liabilities
under certain circumstances on persons who have acted in good faith, and
therefore nothing herein shall in any way constitute a waiver or limitation
of
any rights which the Trust, the Fund or any shareholder of the Fund may have
under any federal securities law or state law.
(d)
Each
party to this Agreement shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party and
the shareholders, directors, officers and employees of the other party (any
such
person, an "Indemnified Party") against any loss, liability, claim, damage
or
expense (including the reasonable cost of investigating and defending any
alleged loss, liability, claim, damage or expenses and reasonable counsel fees
incurred in connection therewith) arising out of the Indemnified Party's
performance or non-performance of any duties under this Agreement provided,
however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to protect any Indemnified Party
against any liability to which such Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject
by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance
of
duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties
under this Agreement.
(e)
No
provision of this Agreement shall be construed to protect any Trustee or officer
of the Trust, or officer of the Advisor, from liability in violation of Sections
17(h) and (i) of the Investment Company Act.
12.
NON-EXCLUSIVITY; TRADING FOR
ADVISOR'S OWN ACCOUNT. The Trust's employment of the Advisor is not an
exclusive arrangement. The Trust may from time to time employ other individuals
or entities to furnish it with the services provided for herein. Likewise,
the
Advisor may act as investment advisor for any other person, and shall not in
any
way be limited or restricted from buying, selling or trading any securities
for
its or their own accounts or the accounts of others for whom it or they may
be
acting, provided, however, that the Advisor expressly represents that it will
undertake no activities which will adversely affect the performance of its
obligations to the Fund under this Agreement; and provided further that the
Advisor will adhere to a code of ethics governing employee trading and trading
for proprietary accounts that conforms to the requirements of the Investment
Company Act and the Advisers Act and has been approved by the Trust's Board
of
Trustees.
13.

Company Act.
14.

name is not deceptive or misleading and that the Advisor has rights to any
distinctive name used by the Fund. The Fund acknowledges that its use
of any distinctive name is derivative of its relationship with the
Advisor. The Fund may use the names “Advisors Series Trust” and PIA
MBS Bond Fund or any name derived from or using the name only for so long as
this Agreement or any extension, renewal or amendment hereof remains in
effect. Within sixty (60) days from such time as this Agreement shall
no longer be in effect, the Fund shall cease to use such a name or any other
name connected with the Advisor.
15.

Agreement may be terminated by the Trust on behalf of the Fund at any time

of
its responsibilities and duties hereunder, or as otherwise permitted by

policies adopted by the Trust and communicated in writing to the
Advisor. Such written approval shall not be unreasonably withheld by
the Trust and may not be withheld where the Advisor may be exposed to civil
or
criminal contempt or other proceedings for failure to comply after being
requested to divulge such information by duly constituted authorities.

the AML Laws, as the same may apply to the Advisor, now and in the future.
The
Advisor further agrees to provide to the Trust and/or the Administrator such
reports, certifications and contractual assurances as may be reasonably
requested by the Trust. The Trust may disclose information regarding the Advisor

required by applicable law or regulation and may file reports with such
authorities as may be required by applicable law or regulation.
18.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. The Advisor acknowledges that, in compliance
with the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act, and the implementing regulations promulgated

Trust and the Fund in complying with the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act and implementing
the
Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures. The Advisor agrees to inform the
Trust of any material development related to the Fund that the Advisor
reasonably believes is relevant to the Fund’s certification obligations under
the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act.
19.
SEVERABILITY. If any
provision of this Agreement shall be held or made invalid by a court decision,
statute or rule, or shall be otherwise rendered invalid, the remainder of this
Agreement shall not be affected thereby.
20.

Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws
