7. Compensation of the Sub-Adviser. As full compensation for all services rendered, facilities furnished and expenses borne by the Sub-Adviser hereunder, the Sub-Adviser shall be paid at the annual rate of 0.50% of the first $250 million of its Segment’s average daily net assets and 0.45% of its Segment’s assets in excess of $250 million (except for assets designated by the Manager as being part of the “Loomis Sayles Large Cap Growth Segment,” for which the Sub-Adviser shall be paid at an annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets).
