herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

1.   Investment Management Services.  The Investment Manager shall supervise the
     investments of each series of shares of the Company  contemplated as of the
     date  hereof,  and such  subsequent  series of shares as the Company  shall
     select the Investment  Manager to manage. In such capacity,  the Investment
     Manager  shall  maintain  a  continuous  investment  program  for each such
     series,  determine  what  securities  shall  be  purchased  or sold by each
     series,  secure and evaluate such  information  as it deems proper and take
     whatever  action is  necessary  or  convenient  to perform  its  functions,
     including the placing of purchase and sale orders.

2.   Compliance  with Laws. All functions  undertaken by the Investment  Manager
     hereunder  shall at all times  conform to, and be in accordance  with,  any
     requirements imposed by:

     (a)  the Investment  Company Act and any rules and regulations  promulgated
          thereunder;

          Company Act.

3.   Board  Supervision.  All  of the  functions  undertaken  by the  Investment
     Manager  hereunder  shall at all times be subject to the  direction  of the
     Board of Trustees (collectively, the "Board of Directors", and each Trustee
     individually a "Director") of the Company, its executive committee,  or any
     committee  or officers of the Company  acting  under the  authority  of the
     Board of Directors.

     each  series of the  Company's  shares  that it shall  manage,  other  than
     interest, taxes, brokerage commissions,  portfolio insurance, extraordinary
     expenses,  the fees and expenses of those Directors who are not "interested
     persons" as defined in Investment  Company Act (hereinafter  referred to as

                                                                          Page 1

     provision of shareholder  services and  distribution  services under a plan
     adopted  pursuant  to Rule 12b-1  under the  Investment  Company  Act.  The
     Investment  Manager will  provide the Company with all physical  facilities
     and  personnel  required  to carry on the  business of each series that the
     Investment Manager shall manage, including but not limited to office space,
     office  furniture,   fixtures  and  equipment,  office  supplies,  computer
     hardware  and  software  and  salaried  and  hourly  paid  personnel.   The
     Investment  Manager may at its expense  employ others to provide all or any
     part of such facilities and personnel.

5.   Account Fees.  The Board of Directors  may impose fees for various  account
     services,  proceeds of which may be remitted to the appropriate Fund or the
     Investment  Manager at the discretion of the Board. At least 60 days' prior
     written  notice  of the  intent  to  impose  such  fee must be given to the
     shareholders of the affected series.

     (a)  In consideration of the services  provided by the Investment  Manager,
          each  class of a series  of  shares  of the  Company  shall pay to the
          Investment Manager a management fee that is calculated as described in
          this Section 6 using the fee schedules described herein.

     (b)  Definitions

          (1)  An  "Investment   Team"  is  the  Portfolio   Managers  that  the
               Investment Manager has designated to manage a given portfolio.

          (2)  An   "Investment   Strategy"  is  the   processes   and  policies
               implemented by the  Investment  Manager for pursuing a particular
               investment objective managed by an Investment Team.

          (3)  A "Primary Strategy  Portfolio" is each series of the Company, as
               well as any  other  series  of any  other  registered  investment
               company for which the Investment Manager serves as the investment
               manager and for which American Century Investment Services,  Inc.
               serves as the distributor;  provided,  however, that a registered
               investment  company  that invests its assets  exclusively  in the
               shares of other  registered  investment  companies shall not be a
               Primary   Strategy   Portfolio.   Any  exceptions  to  the  above
               requirements  shall be approved by the Board of  Directors of the
               Company

          (4)  A "Secondary  Strategy  Portfolio" is another  account managed by
               the  Investment  Manager  that is managed by the same  Investment
               Team as that  assigned to manage any Primary  Strategy  Portfolio
               that shares the same board of  directors  or board of trustees as
               the Company. Any exceptions to this requirement shall be approved
               by the Board of Directors of the Company

          (5)  An "Investment Category" for a series of the Company is the group
               to which  the  series  is  assigned  for  determining  the  first
               component of its management fee. Each Primary Strategy  Portfolio
               is assigned to one of the three Investment  Categories  indicated
               below. The Investment Category  assignments for the series of the
               Company  appear in  Schedule B to this  Agreement.  The assets in
               each of the Investment Categories  ("Investment Category Assets")
               is determined as follows:


                                                                          Page 2

                        AMERICAN CENTURY CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE AND MUNICIPAL FUNDS



               a)   Money Market Fund Category Assets. The assets which are used
                    to determine the fee for this Investment Category is the sum
                    of the assets of all of the Primary Strategy  Portfolios and
                    Secondary Strategy  Portfolios that invest primarily in debt
                    securities and are subject to Rule 2a-7 under the Investment
                    Company Act.

               b)   Bond Fund  Category  Assets.  The  assets  which are used to
                    determine  the fee for this  Investment  Category is the sum
                    the assets of all of the  Primary  Strategy  Portfolios  and
                    Secondary Strategy  Portfolios that invest primarily in debt
                    securities  and  are not  subject  to Rule  2a-7  under  the
                    Investment Company Act.

               c)   Equity Fund  Category  Assets.  The assets which are used to
                    determine  the fee for this  Investment  Category is the sum
                    the assets of all of the  Primary  Strategy  Portfolios  and
                    Secondary  Strategy  Portfolios  that  invest  primarily  in
                    equity securities.

          (6)  The "Per  Annum  Investment  Category  Fee Dollar  Amount"  for a
               series  is  the  dollar  amount   resulting   from  applying  the
               applicable Investment Category Fee Schedule for the series of the
               Company (as shown on Schedule A) using the applicable  Investment
               Category Assets.

          (7)  The "Per Annum Investment  Category Fee Rate" for a series of the
               Company is the percentage rate that results from dividing the Per
               Annum Investment Category Fee Dollar Amount for the series by the
               applicable Investment Category Assets for the series.

          (8)  The  "Complex  Assets"  is the  sum of the  assets  in all of the
               Primary Strategy Portfolios.

          (9)  The "Per Annum Complex Fee Dollar Amount" for a class of a series
               of  the  Company  shall  be  the  dollar  amount  resulting  from
               application of the Complex Assets to the Complex Fee Schedule for
               the class as shown in Schedule C.

          (10) The "Per Annum  Complex  Fee Rate" for a class of a series of the
               Company is the percentage rate that results from dividing the Per
               Annum  Complex Fee Dollar Amount for the class of a series by the
               Complex Assets.

          (11) The "Per  Annum  Management  Fee Rate" for a class of a series of
               the Company is the sum of the Per Annum  Investment  Category Fee
               Rate  applicable  to the series and the Per Annum Complex Fee Fee
               Rate applicable to the class of the series.

               (c)  Daily  Management  Fee  Calculation.  For each calendar day,
                    each  class of each  series of shares of the  Company  shall
                    accrue  a  fee  calculated  by  multiplying  the  Per  Annum
                    Management  Fee Rate for that class  times the net assets of
                    the class on that day, and further  dividing that product by
                    365 (366 in leap years).

               (d)  Monthly Management Fee Payment. On the first business day of
                    each  month,  each  class of each  series  of  shares of the
                    Company  shall  pay  the  management  fee to the


                                                                          Page 3

                        AMERICAN CENTURY CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE AND MUNICIPAL FUNDS



                    Investment  Manager for the previous month.  The fee for the
                    previous month shall be the sum of the Daily  Management Fee
                    Calculations for each calendar day in the previous month.

               (e)  Additional Series or Classes. In the event that the Board of
                    Directors shall determine to issue any additional  series of
                    shares for which it is proposed that the Investment  Manager
                    serve as investment manager,  the Company and the Investment
                    Manager  shall  enter  into an  Addendum  to this  Agreement
                    setting  forth  the  name  of  the  series  or  classes,  as
                    appropriate,  the  Applicable  Fee and such other  terms and
                    conditions  as are  applicable  to the  management  of  such
                    series of shares.

7.   Continuation of Agreement.  This Agreement shall continue in effect, unless
     sooner terminated as hereinafter  provided,  for a period of two years from
     the execution  hereof,  and for as long  thereafter as its  continuance  is
     specifically  approved, as to each series of the Company, at least annually
     (i) by the Board of  Directors  of the Company or by the vote of a majority
     of the outstanding  voting securities of the Company,  and (ii) by the vote
     of a majority of the  Directors of the Company,  who are not parties to the
     agreement  or  interested  persons of any such  party,  cast in person at a
     meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.

8.   Termination.  This Agreement may be terminated, with respect to any series,
     by the  Investment  Manager at any time  without  penalty  upon  giving the
     Company 60 days' written notice, and may be terminated, with respect to any
     series,  at any time  without  penalty  by the  Board of  Directors  of the
     Company or by vote of a majority of the  outstanding  voting  securities of
     such series on 60 days' written notice to the Investment Manager.

9.   Effect of Assignment.  This Agreement shall automatically  terminate in the
     event of assignment by the Investment  Manager,  the term  "assignment" for
     this  purpose  having  the  meaning  defined  in  Section  2(a)(4)  of  the
     Investment Company Act.

10.  Other  Activities.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict the
     right of the  Investment  Manager,  or the  right  of any of its  officers,
     directors or employees (who may also be a Director,  officer or employee of
     the  Company),  to  engage  in any other  business  or to  devote  time and
     attention to the management or other aspects of any other business, whether
     of a similar or dissimilar nature, or to render services of any kind to any
     other corporation, firm, individual or association.

11.  Standard of Care. In the absence of willful  misfeasance,  bad faith, gross
     negligence, or reckless disregard of its obligations or duties hereunder on
     the part of the  Investment  Manager,  it, as an  inducement to it to enter
     into this Agreement, shall not be subject to liability to the Company or to
     any shareholder of the Company 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.

12.  Separate Agreement.  The parties hereto acknowledge that certain provisions
     of the Investment Company Act, in effect,  treat each series of shares of a
     registered   investment   company   as  a  separate   investment   company.
     Accordingly,  the parties hereto hereby  acknowledge and agree that, to the
     extent deemed  appropriate and consistent with the Investment  Company Act,
     this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a separate  agreement  between
     the Investment  Manager and each series of shares of the Company managed by
     the Investment Manager.


                                                                          Page 4

13.  Use of the Name "American  Century".  The name  "American  Century" and all
     rights to the use of the name "American Century" are the exclusive property

     to, and granted a non-exclusive  license for, the use by the Company of the
     name "American Century" in the name of the Company and any series of shares
     thereof.  Such consent and non-exclusive  license may be revoked by ACPH in
     its  discretion  if  ACPH,  the  Investment  Manager,  or a  subsidiary  or
     affiliate  of either of them is not employed as the  investment  adviser of
     each series of shares of the Company. In the event of such revocation,  the
     Company and each series of shares thereof using the name "American Century"
     shall cease using the name "American Century" unless otherwise consented to
     by ACPH or any successor to its interest in such name.
