AMENDMENT NO. 4

TO THE AGREEMENT

SCHEDULE A. Compensation to TINTL pursuant to Paragraph 4 of the Agreement shall be calculated at the rates noted in the table below based on the average daily net assets (or portion of Fund assets, as the case may be) managed by TINTL of each of the following Funds when managed by TINTL as Subadviser as of the start date of services:

[REDACTED DATA]

* TINTL shall not be responsible for providing any services to a Fund under the Agreement (other than certain reporting to the Board, as mutually agreed upon) until the Start Date for a Fund has been determined by both parties.

** The Fund invests substantially all of its assets in affiliated underlying funds, for which Columbia Management is not paid advisory fees and, therefore, the TINTL subadvisory rate is 0%.
