                             STONEBRIDGE FUNDS TRUST

                         SUPPLEMENTAL CODE OF ETHICS FOR
                PRINCIPAL OFFICERS AND SENIOR FINANCIAL OFFICERS

The Board of Trustees (the "Board") of Stonebridge Funds Trust (the "Trust") has
adopted this Supplemental Code of Ethics (the "Code") for the Trust's Principal
Officers and Senior Financial Officers (the "Officers") to guide and remind the
Officers of their responsibilities to the Trust, other Officers, shareholders of
the Trust, and governmental authorities. Officers are expected to act in
accordance with the guidance and standards set forth in this Code.

For the purposes of this Code, the Trust's Principal Officers and Senior
Financial Officers shall include: the Principal Executive Officer; the Principal
Financial Officer; the Principal Accounting Officer; the Controller; and any
persons performing similar functions on behalf of the Trust, regardless of
whether such persons are employed by the Trust or a third party.

This Code is intended to serve as the code of ethics described in Section 406 of
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Form N-CSR. To the extent that an Officer is
subject to the Trust's code of ethics adopted pursuant to Rule 17j-1 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Rule 17j-1 Code"), this Code is
intended to supplement and be interpreted in the context of the Rule 17j-1 Code.
This Code also should be interpreted in the context of all applicable laws,
regulations, the Trust's Declaration of Trust and Bylaws, as amended, and all
other governance and disclosure policies and documents adopted by the Board. All
Officers must become familiar and fully comply with this Code. Because this Code
cannot and does not cover every applicable law or provide answers to all
questions that might arise, all Officers are expected to use common sense about
what is right and wrong, including a sense of when it is proper to seek guidance
from others on the appropriate course of conduct.

The purpose of this Code is to set standards for the Officers that are
reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and are necessary to promote:

     -    honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual
          or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional
          relationships;

     -    full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports
          and documents that the Trust files with, or submits to, the Securities
          and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and in any other public
          communications by the Trust;

     -    compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

     -    the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to the
          appropriate persons as set forth in the Code; and

     -    accountability for adherence to the Code.

1.   HONEST AND ETHICAL CONDUCT

a.   HONESTY, DILIGENCE AND PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY

Officers are expected to observe both the form and the spirit of the ethical
principles contained in this Code. Officers must perform their duties and
responsibilities for the Trust:

     -    with honesty, diligence, and a commitment to professional and ethical
          responsibility;

     -    carefully, thoroughly and in a timely manner; and

     -    in conformity with applicable professional and technical standards.

Officers who are certified public accountants are expected carry out their
duties and responsibilities in a manner consistent with the principles governing
the accounting profession, including any guidelines or principles issued by the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board or the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants from time to time.

b.   OBJECTIVITY / AVOIDANCE OF UNDISCLOSED CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Officers are expected to maintain objectivity and avoid undisclosed conflicts of
interest. In the performance of their duties and responsibilities for the Trust,
Officers must not subordinate their judgment to personal gain and advantage, or
be unduly influenced by their own interests or by the interests of others.
Officers must avoid participation in any activity or relationship that
constitutes a conflict of interest unless that conflict has been completely
disclosed to affected parties. Further, Officers should avoid participation in
any activity or relationship that could create the appearance of a conflict of
interest.

A conflict of interest would generally arise if an Officer directly or
indirectly participated in any investment, interest, association, activity or
relationship that may impair or appear to impair the Officer's objectivity.

Any Officer who may be involved in a situation or activity that might be a
conflict of interest or give the appearance of a conflict of interest should
consider reporting such situation or activity using the reporting procedures set
forth in Section 4 of this Code.

The Audit Committee will not be responsible for monitoring or enforcing this
conflict of interest policy, but rather each Officer is responsible for
self-compliance with this conflict of interest policy.

c.   PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Officers must not knowingly make any misrepresentations regarding the Trust's
financial statements or any facts in the preparation of the Trust's financial
statements, and must comply with all applicable laws, standards, principles,
guidelines, rules and regulations in the preparation of the Trust's financial
statements. This section is intended to prohibit:

<Page>

     -    making, or permitting or directing another to make, materially false
          or misleading entries in the Trust's financial statements or records;

     -    failing to correct the Trust's financial statements or records that
          are materially false or misleading when he or she has the authority to
          record an entry; and

     -    signing, or permitting or directing another to sign, a document
          containing materially false or misleading financial information.

Officers must be scrupulous in their application of generally accepted
accounting principles. No Officer may (i) express an opinion or state
affirmatively that the financial statements or other financial data of the Trust
are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, or
(ii) state that he or she is not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to such statements or data in order for them to be in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles, if such statements or data contain any
departure from generally accepted accounting principles then in effect in the
United States.

Officers must follow the laws, standards, principles, guidelines, rules and
regulations established by all applicable governmental bodies, commissions or
other regulatory agencies in the preparation of financial statements, records
and related information. If an Officer prepares financial statements, records or
related information for purposes of reporting to such bodies, commissions or
regulatory agencies, the Officer must follow the requirements of such
organizations in addition to generally accepted accounting principles.

If an Officer and his or her supervisor have a disagreement or dispute relating
to the preparation of financial statements or the recording of transactions, the
Officer should take the following steps to ensure that the situation does not
constitute an impermissible subordination of judgment:

     -    The Officer should consider whether (i) the entry or the failure to
          record a transaction in the records, or (ii) the financial statement
          presentation or the nature or omission of disclosure in the financial
          statements, as proposed by the supervisor, represents the use of an
          acceptable alternative and does not materially misrepresent the facts
          or result in an omission of a material fact. If, after appropriate
          research or consultation, the Officer concludes that the matter has
          authoritative support and/or does not result in a material
          misrepresentation, the Officer need do nothing further.

     -    If the Officer concludes that the financial statements or records
          could be materially misstated as a result of the supervisor's
          determination, the Officer should follow the reporting procedures set
          forth in Section 4 of this Code.

d.   OBLIGATIONS TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR OF THE TRUST

In dealing with the Trust's independent auditor, Officers must be candid and not
knowingly misrepresent facts or knowingly fail to disclose material facts, and
must respond to specific inquiries and requests by the Trust's independent
auditor.

Officers must not take any action, or direct any person to take any action, to
fraudulently influence, coerce, manipulate or mislead the Trust's independent
auditor in the performance of

<Page>

an audit of the Trust's financial statements for the purpose of rendering such
financial statements materially misleading.

2.   FULL, FAIR, ACCURATE, TIMELY AND UNDERSTANDABLE DISCLOSURE

It is the Trust's policy to provide full, fair, accurate, timely, and
understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Trust files with, or
submits to, the SEC and in any other public communications by the Trust. The
Trust has designed and implemented Disclosure Controls and Procedures to carry
out this policy.

Officers are expected to use their best efforts to promote, facilitate, and
prepare full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in all
reports and documents that the Trust files with, or submits to, the SEC and in
any other public communications by the Trust.

Officers must review the Trust's Disclosure Controls and Procedures to ensure
they are aware of and carry out their duties and responsibilities in accordance
with the Disclosure Controls and Procedures and the public reporting obligations
of the Trust. Officers are responsible for monitoring the integrity and
effectiveness of the Trust's Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

3.   COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS

Officers are expected to know, respect and comply with all laws, rules and
regulations applicable to the conduct of the Trust's business. If an Officer is
in doubt about the legality or propriety of an action, business practice or
policy, the Officer should seek advice from the Officer's supervisor or the
Trust's legal counsel.

In the performance of their work, Officers must not knowingly be a party to any
illegal activity or engage in acts that are discreditable to the Trust.

Officers are expected to promote the Trust's compliance with applicable laws,
rules and regulations. To promote such compliance, Officers may establish and
maintain mechanisms to educate employees carrying out the finance and compliance
functions of the Trust about any applicable laws, rules or regulations that
affect the operation of the finance and compliance functions and the Trust
generally.

4.   REPORTING OF ILLEGAL OR UNETHICAL BEHAVIOR

Officers should promptly report any conduct or actions by an Officer that do not
comply with the law or with this Code. Officers and the Trust shall adhere to
the following reporting procedures with respect to all matters other than those
otherwise required to be reported under the Trust's Rule 17j-1 Code:

     -    Any Officer who questions whether a situation, activity or practice is
          acceptable must immediately report such practice to the Principal
          Executive Officer of the Trust (or to an Officer who is the functional
          equivalent of this position) or to the Trust's legal counsel. The
          person receiving the report shall consider the matter and respond to
          the Officer within a reasonable amount of time.

<Page>

     -    If the Officer is not satisfied with the response of the Principal
          Executive Officer or counsel, the Officer must report the matter to
          the Chairman of the Audit Committee. If the Chairman is unavailable,
          the Officer may report the matter to any other member of the Audit
          Committee. The person receiving the report shall consider the matter,
          refer it to the full Audit Committee if he or she deems appropriate,
          and respond to the Officer within a reasonable amount of time.

     -    If, after receiving a response, the Officer concludes that appropriate
          action was not taken, he or she should consider any responsibility
          that may exist to communicate to third parties, such as regulatory
          authorities or the Trust's independent auditor. In this matter, the
          Officer may wish to consult with his or her own legal counsel.

     -    The Audit Committee and the Trust will not be responsible for
          monitoring or enforcing this reporting of violations policy, but
          rather each Officer is responsible for self-compliance with this
          reporting of violations policy.

     -    To the extent possible and as allowed by law, reports will be treated
          as confidential.

     -    If the Audit Committee determines that an Officer violated this Code,
          failed to report a known or suspected violation of this Code, or
          provided intentionally false or malicious information in connection
          with an alleged violation of this Code, the Trust may take
          disciplinary action against any such Officer to the extent the Audit
          Committee deems appropriate. No Officer will be disciplined for
          reporting a concern in good faith.

     -    The Trust and the Audit Committee may report violations of the law to
          the appropriate authorities.

5.   ACCOUNTABILITY AND APPLICABILITY

All Officers will be held accountable for adherence to this Code. On an annual
basis, within 30 days of the beginning of each calendar year, each Officer shall
certify in writing his or her receipt, familiarity and commitment to compliance
with this Code, by signing the Acknowledgment Form (APPENDIX A to this Code).

This Code is applicable to all Officers, regardless of whether such persons are
employed by the Trust or a third party. If an Officer is aware of a person
("Potential Officer") who may be considered an Officer as defined by this Code,
the Officer should inform legal counsel to the Trust of such Potential Officer
so that a determination can be made regarding whether such Potential Officer has
completed or should complete an Acknowledgment Form. However, the absence of
such a determination will not be deemed to relieve any person of his or her
duties under this Code.

6.   DISCLOSURE OF THIS CODE

This Code shall be disclosed by at least one of the following methods in the
manner prescribed by the SEC, unless otherwise required by law:

<Page>

     -    by filing a copy of the Code with the SEC;

     -    by posting the text of the Code on the Trust's website; or

     -    by providing, without charge, a copy of the Code to any person upon
          request.

7.   WAIVERS

Any waiver of this Code, including an implicit waiver, that has been granted to
an Officer, may be made only by the Board or a committee of the Board to which
such responsibility has been delegated, and must be disclosed by the Trust in
the manner prescribed by law and as set forth above in Section 6 (Disclosure of
this Code).

8.   AMENDMENTS

This Code may be amended by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board. Any
amendment of this Code, must be disclosed by the Trust in the manner prescribed
by law and as set forth above in Section 6 (Disclosure of this Code), unless
such amendment is deemed to be technical, administrative, or otherwise
non-substantive. Any amendments to this Code will be provided to the Officers.

Approved by the Board of Trustees on June 17, 2003.
