At the Customer’s request, the Investment Manager shall provide to the Customer certificates or other evidence of compliance relating to any Applicable Requirements or other legal requirements, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to the Customer.

(e) The Investment Manager shall at all times maintain sufficient and knowledgeable personnel to perform the Services.

2.4 Transactions Involving Brokers.

(a) In performing the Services, the Investment Manager shall have full power, right, and authority to issue orders for the purchase or sale of securities for the Account, directly to Brokers, as well as to exercise or abstain from exercising any option, privilege or right held in the Account. In selecting a Broker with respect to effecting any securities transaction on behalf of the Customer, the Investment Manager may take into account such relevant factors as (i) total transaction price (including commissions, as a component of price), (ii) the Broker’s facilities, reliability and financial responsibility, (iii) the ability of the Broker to effect securities transactions, particularly with regard to such aspects as timing, size and execution of orders, and (iv) the research services provided by such Broker to the Investment Manager (either directly or by arrangement with third parties) which may enhance the Investment Manager’s general investment decision-making process, notwithstanding that the Customer may not be the direct or exclusive beneficiary of such services. Specifically, the Investment Manager may pay a Broker a commission in excess of the amount another broker would have charged for effecting such transaction, so long as, subject to the overriding principles of suitability and in the good faith judgment of the Investment Manager, the amount of the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such Broker, viewed in terms of that particular transaction or the Investment Manager’s overall investment management business. The Investment Manager will make periodic disclosure to the Customer regarding transactions subject to soft dollar arrangements as required.

(b) Subject to FSA Rules, the Investment Manager may enter into arrangements with Brokers to open “average price” accounts wherein orders during a trading day are placed on behalf of the Customer and other customers of the Investment Manager and its Associates and of its employees without prior reference to the Customer and will allocate such transactions (along with an equivalent portion of the expense related thereto) on a fair and reasonable basis using an average price.

(c) The Customer may direct the Investment Manager to effect securities transactions for the Account (“Directed Trades”) through broker-dealer(s) identified by the Customer in writing (“Directed Brokers”) in a separate agreement acceptable to the Investment Manager. The Customer acknowledges that: (i) Directed Trades may not enable the Customer to obtain the cost and execution benefits, if any, of participating in aggregated trades with other customers; and (ii) Directed Trades may be executed before or after the Investment Manager effects the execution of transactions for other accounts with the result that the Customer may pay or receive, as the case may be, a different price for securities which were also the subject of trades by the Investment Manager for its other customers. The Customer represents that Directed Trades are not prohibited by Applicable Requirements or the Customer’s governing documents.

(d) The Investment Manager may provide typical investment representations and warranties on behalf of the Customer, including but not limited to those representations and warranties contained in clause 6.2 hereof, in connection with the purchase or sale of securities by the Customer.

The Customer shall be responsible for the payment of all custodial fees to the Custodian. The Investment Manager shall have no responsibility including supervisory responsibility or liability with respect to the acts, omissions or other conduct of the Custodian.

2.6 Exercise of Rights. Subject to the Investment Guidelines and any other written instructions of the Board, the Investment Committee or Representatives of the Customer provided to the Investment Manager, the Investment Manager shall use its best judgment to exercise or instruct the Custodian to exercise, in a manner that the Investment Manager deems to be in the best interests of the Customer, all voting rights, consent rights, subscription rights, conversion rights or any other rights arising in connection with any investment in the Account. The Investment Manager shall determine whether to consent to modifications of any documents governing securities held in the Account. Unless provided herein or requested in writing by the Customer, the Investment Manager need not forward any proxy material, consent solicitations or similar material to the Customer.

2.7 Record Keeping and Inspection.

(a) The Investment Manager shall maintain all books, accounts, vouchers, records, memoranda, instructions or authorizations (collectively, “Records”) relating to the acquisition or disposition of securities or other investments in the Account in accordance with FSA Rules. Such Records will at all times be the property of the Customer. On a timely basis, the Investment Manager shall make available to the Customer, at its administrative offices or such other location as may be designated by the Customer, copies or originals of such Records upon reasonable request.

(b) All Records, both internal and external with third parties, to the extent within the control of the Investment Manager, will clearly specify the ownership interest of the Customer in the Account Assets.

(ii) immediately (A) for cause (“cause” being understood as any fraud or wilful misconduct by the Investment Manager in managing the Account, the Investment Manager’s material breach of this Agreement, materially deficient investment performance with respect to the Account or the Investment Manager’s material or repeated non-compliance in managing the Account in accordance with the

Investment Guidelines or Investment Objectives; provided that, except with respect to Manager’s fraud or wilful misconduct, the Investment Manager shall have thirty (30) days from notice of such non-compliance or material breach to cure such non-compliance or material breach to the reasonable satisfaction of the Customer in which case cause shall not be deemed to have arisen); (B) upon a Control Event with respect to the Customer or the Investment Manager; or (C) following the occurrence of a FSA Termination or Regulatory Change (each as defined in clause 3(e) below) or the occurrence of an event described in clause 3(e)(iii)(A) below.

(d) If the Customer terminates this Agreement with less than six (6) months prior notice and if such termination is not due to the occurrence of any event set forth in clause 3(c)(ii) above, the Customer will pay to the Investment Manager, in addition to all fees applicable for the period from notice to termination, the lesser of (1) the unpaid balance of the Budgeted Costs that have been applicable for providing the Services during the period from the termination date through the date that is six (6) months from the date that notice was received (the “Remaining Term”) or (2) the Actual Costs incurred by the Investment Manager for providing the Services for the Remaining Term (in each case as adjusted to reflect the pro-rata portion of the True-up for the following year, or portion thereof, if applicable). The Investment Manager shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate the incurrence of such costs and expenses.

(e) This Agreement may be terminated by the Investment Manager:

(i) if the FSA suspends or withdraws the Investment Manager’s investment adviser registration or permission to carry on investment management activities (“FSA Termination”);

(ii) if a change in Applicable Requirements occurs that would materially and adversely affect the Investment Manager’s ability to provide the Services (“Regulatory Change”); or

(iii) if (A) GE or an Associate thereof, as the case may be, decides to dissolve the Investment Manager and commences dissolution or other winding up proceedings; (B) a Control Event with respect to the Investment Manager occurs; or (C) the GE Life Group decides to engage other investment managers to provide substantially all advisory services to its fixed income assets (each such event in (A), (B) or (C), a “GE Change”); provided that the Investment Manager shall give prompt written notice of a GE Change to the Customer and the date of termination shall occur on the later of the Initial Termination Date or six (6) months from the giving of notice of the GE Change to the Customer.

(f) The Investment Manager shall provide prompt written notice of a FSA Termination or Regulatory Change to the Customer and the Investment Manager shall use best efforts to extend the termination date of this Agreement to the maximum date consistent with the requirements of the FSA or the date of implementation of the Regulatory Change, as applicable, and in a manner consistent with regard to clause 3(k).

(g) This Agreement also shall automatically terminate in the event of its unauthorized assignment by either party.

(h) Termination in any manner shall not affect the rights of either party that accrued prior to termination.

(i) The Customer acknowledges that the Investment Manager has and will continue to expend substantial fixed costs in providing the Services to the

Customer and such costs would not have been incurred but for the Investment Manager providing the Services. Furthermore, the Customer acknowledges that the Investment Manager has agreed to provide the Services for the fees payable pursuant to Article IV in part because the Customer has expressed a good faith intention to engage the Investment Manager for not less than three (3) years following the Effective Date. Therefore, the Customer acknowledges that the management fees still to be paid to the Investment Manager following a termination by the Customer of this Agreement for reasons other than pursuant to clause 3(c)(ii) above and with less than six (6) months prior notice should not be construed as a penalty but as a reasonable approximation of the additional costs incurred by the Investment Manager due to the failure of the Customer to meet the parties’ expectations.

(j) Within sixty (60) days of the termination of this Agreement, the Investment Manager shall transfer all Records to the Customer or its designee provided that Investment Manager shall be entitled to maintain a copy of such Records. All reasonable costs (but not any copying costs) to transfer such Records shall be paid by the Customer.

(k) In the event of any termination of this Agreement, the Customer may request that the Investment Manager continue to serve as an investment manager hereunder (at the then-existing compensation level) in order to assist the Customer in effecting a smooth and orderly transfer of services and all Records to any successor Investment Manager (which may be Customer); provided that such transition period shall not exceed 3 months unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. The Investment Manager shall consent to such request provided termination is not the result of a FSA Termination or Regulatory Change.

ARTICLE IV

COMPENSATION

4. Compensation.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Article IV, the Customer agrees to pay the Investment Manager a management fee on a quarterly basis in arrears for the Services. The management fee shall be equal to ** basis points (**%) (the “Management Percentage”) multiplied by the value of the Account Assets as of the end of the relevant calendar quarter, as determined by the Custodian’s records, divided by four (4). The Customer agrees to pay an estimate (determined in good faith by the Investment Manager) of this amount in monthly installments in advance with any difference between the amount paid and the amount due being set against the actual quarterly fee. The parties acknowledge that the initial Management Percentage has been, and the Management Percentage applicable for each calendar year thereafter, will be equal to 105% of the percentage resulting from dividing the Investment Manager’s budgeted direct and indirect costs and expenses for providing the Services for such period (the “Budgeted Costs”) as adjusted by any True-up for the prior year by the Customer’s estimated average Account Assets for the next calendar year.

(b) The parties will reestablish the Management Percentage for each calendar year in accordance with the following process. By each September 15, the Customer shall provide the Investment Manager with a provisional forecast of the Customer’s Account Assets for the following calendar year together with an outline of any significant changes that the Customer proposes to

implement to its investment strategy during the following calendar year. By each October 1, the Investment Manager shall provide the Customer with a detailed budget setting forth the expected Budgeted Costs to be incurred by the Investment Manager in order to provide the Services for the following calendar year along with reasonable documentation in support of such budget (collectively, the “Proposal”). The Customer shall promptly review the Proposal and shall accept or reject the Proposal, in the Customer’s reasonable discretion, by no later than November 1; provided, however, if the Customer rejects the Proposal it shall provide the Investment Manager with a written explanation for such rejection. If the Customer rejects the Proposal, the Customer and the Investment Manager will work in good faith to resolve all issues so that the Proposal is acceptable to both parties no later than December 1. As promptly as possible, but in no event later than January 15 of each year, the Customer shall provide the Investment Manager its final forecast of Account Assets for the calendar year and any significant changes to the Customer’s investment strategy that the Customer proposes to implement during such calendar year. Within five (5) business days following receipt of such information, the Investment Manager shall calculate the difference between the management fees paid or payable by the Customer to the Investment Manager for the prior year under this Agreement and the Investment Manager’s actual direct and indirect costs and expenses of providing services (“Actual Costs”) during such period (such difference is referred to as the “True-up”) and shall provide the True-up and proposed Management Percentage to the Customer. The calculation of any True-up shall not give effect to fees received by the Investment Manager or reductions in fees otherwise owed to the Investment Manager as a result of a prior True-up. The True-up shall be added to or subtracted from, as applicable, the Budgeted Costs set forth in the approved Proposal and shall be reflected in the Management Percentage established for the following calendar year. If the Investment Manager is entitled to the benefit of the True-up because Actual Costs exceeded Budgeted Costs, the True-up added to Budgeted Costs for the following calendar year shall be the lesser of the actual True-up or an amount equal to 10% of Budgeted Costs for the prior calendar year; provided however, that any Actual Costs that were not included in the approved Proposal for the year but were previously approved in writing by the Customer in consultation with the Investment Manager during such year shall not be included when applying the 10% cap. The Investment Manager shall provide the Customer with reasonable back-up documentation supporting the Investment Manager’s calculation of the True-up. The Customer shall approve or reject the True-Up and the Management Percentage not later than five (5) business days after receipt thereof from the Investment Manager. The Management Percentage shall be implemented as if it were effective as of the prior January 1. If the parties are unable to agree on a revised Proposal, the True-up or the Management Percentage, the then existing Management Percentage shall remain in effect until the parties agree on a revised Proposal and True-up. If the parties are unable to agree on the Proposal, the Management Percentage and the True-up by February 15, the Budgeted Costs and Management Percentage (which shall reflect the True-up) shall be established pursuant to the Arbitration process described in Article IX of this Agreement. In accordance with the foregoing procedure, if the GE Life Group decides to engage other investment managers to provide substantially all advisory services to its fixed income assets, the Manager agrees that Budgeted Costs (without giving effect to any True-up) for the calendar year immediately following such change shall not increase by more than 5% unless mutually agreed by the parties. Both parties understand that time is of the essence with respect to this clause 4(b). For purposes of all dates set forth in this clause, if such date is not a business day, then such date shall be deemed to be the next calendar day that is a business day.

(c) The Customer agrees to pay an estimate (determined in good faith by the Investment Manager) of the quarterly charge contemplated in clause 4(a) above in monthly installments in advance with any difference between the amount paid and the amount due being set against the actual quarterly fee. The Investment Manager shall submit to the Customer at the beginning of each month, a written statement of the amount owed by the Customer for that month. The Customer shall pay the Investment Manager undisputed amounts within twenty eight (28) days following receipt of such statement. Fees to be paid in GBP. VAT will be added and paid, where applicable, by the Customer. The Customer will inform the Investment Manager as soon as possible when it is no longer within the GE Capital Bank Limited VAT Group.

Investment Reports will be used solely for the purpose of monitoring and evaluating the performance of the Account and for use by the Customer in testing the Account Assets for regulatory compliance and similar purposes. The Customer shall establish and maintain reasonable procedures to keep Investment Reports confidential and to prevent disclosure or distribution to any Person other than to the Customer’s Representatives who have a reasonable need to know or have access to such Investment Reports in connection with the receipt of the Services. The Customer will be responsible for compliance with the terms of this clause by its Representatives.

Each party hereto will, to the extent legally possible, obtain the other party’s approval before sending or making available any Investment Report to third parties.

9.1 General Provisions.

(a) Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the validity, interpretation, breach or termination thereof (a “Dispute”), shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article IX, which shall be the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of any such Dispute unless otherwise specified below.

(b) Commencing with a request contemplated by Section 9.2 set forth below, all communications between the parties or their representatives in connection with the attempted resolution of any Dispute, including any mediator’s evaluation referred to in Section 9.3 set forth below, shall be deemed to be without prejudice communications and to have been delivered in furtherance of a Dispute settlement and shall be exempt from inspection, and shall not be admissible in evidence for any reason (whether as an admission or otherwise), in any arbitral or other proceeding for the resolution of the Dispute.

(c) In connection with any Dispute, the parties expressly waive and forego any right to (i) punitive, exemplary, statutorily-enhanced or similar damages in excess of compensatory damages, and (ii) trial by jury.

(d) The specific procedures set forth below, including but not limited to the time limits referenced therein, may be modified by agreement of the parties in writing.

(e) The running of time shall be suspended in respect of any Dispute for the purposes of any defences based upon the passage of time (whether under the Limitation Act 1980 (in its present form or as subsequently amended or replaced or otherwise) while the procedures specified in this Article IX are pending. The parties will take such action, if any, required to effectuate this suspension.

9.2 Consideration by Senior Executives. If a Dispute is not resolved in the normal course of business at the operational level, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such Dispute by negotiation between executives who hold, at a minimum, the office of President and CEO of the respective business entities involved in such Dispute. Either party may initiate the executive negotiation process by providing a written notice to the other (the “Initial Notice”). Fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Initial Notice, the receiving party shall submit to the other a written response (the “Response”). The Initial Notice and the Response shall include (i) a statement of the Dispute and of each party’s position, and (ii) the name and title of the executive who will represent that party and of any other person who will accompany the executive. Such executives will meet in person or by telephone within thirty (30) days of the date of the Initial Notice to seek a resolution of the Dispute.

9.3 Mediation. If a Dispute is not resolved by negotiation as provided in Section 9.2 within forty-five (45) days from the delivery of the Initial Notice, then either party may submit the Dispute for resolution by mediation pursuant to the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution (the “CPR”) Model Mediation Procedure as then in effect. The parties will select a mediator from the CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals. Either party at commencement of the mediation may ask the mediator to provide an evaluation of the Dispute and the parties’ relative positions.

9.4 Arbitration

(a) If a Dispute is not resolved by mediation as provided in Section 9.3 within thirty (30) days of the selection of a mediator (unless the mediator chooses to withdraw sooner), either party may submit the Dispute to be finally resolved by arbitration pursuant to the CPR Rules for Non-Administered Arbitration as then in effect (the “CPR Arbitration Rules”). The parties consent to a single, consolidated arbitration for all known Disputes existing at the time of the arbitration and for which arbitration is permitted.

(b) The neutral organization for purposes of the CPR Arbitration Rules will be the CPR. The arbitral tribunal shall be composed of three arbitrators, of whom each party shall appoint one in accordance with the “screened” appointment procedure provided in Rule 5.4 of the CPR Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in London, England. Each party shall be permitted to present its case, witnesses and evidence, if any, in the presence of the other party. A written transcript of the proceedings shall be made and furnished to the parties. The arbitrators shall determine the Dispute in accordance with the law of England, without giving effect to any conflict of law rules or other rules that might render law inapplicable or unavailable, and shall apply this Agreement according to its terms.

(c) The parties agree to be bound by any award or order resulting from any arbitration conducted in accordance with this Section 9.4 and further agree that judgment on any award or order resulting from an arbitration conducted under this Section 9.4 may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

For purposes of the foregoing, the parties hereto submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England.

(e) In addition to the authority otherwise conferred on the arbitral tribunal, the tribunal shall have the authority to make such orders for interim relief, including injunctive relief, as it may deem just and equitable. Notwithstanding Section 9.4(d) above, each party acknowledges that in the event of any actual or threatened breach of Article V, the damages would not be adequate, and therefore injunctive or other interim relief may be sought immediately to restrain such breach. If the tribunal shall not have been appointed, either party may seek interim relief from a court having jurisdiction if the award to which the applicant may be entitled may be rendered ineffectual without such interim relief. Upon appointment of the tribunal following any grant of interim relief by a court, the tribunal may affirm or disaffirm such relief, and the parties will seek modification or rescission of the court action as necessary to accord with the tribunal’s decision.

(f) Each party will bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with the resolution of any Dispute in accordance with this Article IX

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have duly executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
