WHEREAS, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization approved by both the Board of Trustees of the Trust and the Board of Directors of Advantus Series Fund, Inc. (the "Series Fund") on July 28, 2011, and approved by a majority of the shareholders of each Portfolio of the Series Fund on October 21, 2011, each Portfolio of the Series Fund was reorganized into a separate Fund of the Trust effective as of May 1, 2012; and WHEREAS, the Investment Adviser, the Underwriter and the Series Fund have previously entered into a Net Investment Income Maintenance Agreement, effective as of February 1, 2009 and an Amended and Restated Net Investment Income Maintenance Agreement effective as of October 29, 2009 (the "Prior Agreements"); and WHEREAS, the parties have determined that each desires to restate and adopt the Prior Agreements as set forth herein; and WHEREAS, the Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management company of the series type, and the Fund is a series of the Trust; and WHEREAS, the Trust and the Investment Adviser have entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement dated May 1, 2012 (the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Investment Adviser will render investment advisory services to the Fund for compensation based on the value of the average daily net assets of the Fund; and WHEREAS, the Trust and the Underwriter have entered into an Underwriting and Distribution Agreement dated May 1, 2012 (the "Underwriting Agreement") pursuant to which the Underwriter acts the principal underwriter for the Fund, and receives compensation thereunder pursuant to the Fund's Rule 12b-1 Plan; and WHEREAS, the Trust and the Investment Adviser have determined that it is appropriate and in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders to maintain the Fund's daily "Net Investment Income" (as defined in paragraph 1.1 below) at or in excess of zero. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows: 2 1. Net Investment Income Maintenance. 1.1 Net Investment Income. "Fund Investment Income", as defined in paragraph 1.2 below, minus "Fund Operating Expenses" as defined in paragraph 1.3 below equals Net Investment Income. If the Fund's Net Investment Income on any day is below zero, the Investment Adviser shall waive its Advisory Fee or reimburse the Fund an amount (defined as "Expense Waiver") sufficient to produce a Net Investment Income of zero. 1.2 Fund Investment Income. Fund Investment Income includes interest and dividends, net of foreign withholding taxes, plus income from securities lending activities, if applicable. Fund Investment Income does not include realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments and foreign currencies. 1.3 Fund Operating Expenses. Fund Operating Expenses are the aggregate expenses of every character incurred by the Fund, including but not limited to investment advisory fees of the Investment Adviser (but excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund's business). Fund Operating Expenses do not include "acquired fund fees and expenses" as defined in SEC Form N-1A, as it may be amended from time to time. 1.4 Method of Computing Expense Waiver. To determine the Expense Waiver (Investment Adviser's liability), each day the Fund Operating Expenses shall be subtracted from the Fund Investment Income to produce the daily Net Investment Income. If the daily Net Investment Income is below zero for any day, the Investment Adviser shall first waive or reduce its advisory fee for such day by an amount sufficient to bring the Net Investment Income to zero. If the amount of the waived or reduced advisory fee for any such day is insufficient to bring the Net Investment Income to zero , the Investment Adviser shall also pay Fund expenses or reimburse the Fund an amount that, together with the waived or reduced advisory fee, is sufficient to bring the Net Investment Income to zero. 1.5 Right of Recovery. The Investment Adviser shall have the option to recover the full amount waived, paid or reimbursed (the Expense Waiver) by the Investment Adviser on any day
