Item 23. Persons Controlled by or under Common Control with Registrant

        Registrant is controlled by its initial shareholder, Mark Travis. Registrant neither controls any person nor is any person under common control with Registrant.

Item 24. Indemnification

        Reference is made to Article VI in the Registrant’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust, which is incorporated by reference herein. In addition to the indemnification provisions contained in the Registrant’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust, there are also indemnification and hold harmless provisions contained in the Investment Advisory Agreement, Distribution Agreement, Custodian Agreement and Administration Agreement. The general effect of the indemnification available to an officer or trustee may be to reduce the circumstances under which the officer or trustee is required to bear the economic burden of liabilities and expenses related to actions taken by the individual in his or her capacity as an officer or trustee.

        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant by the Registrant pursuant to the Declaration of Trust or otherwise, the Registrant is aware that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act, and therefore, is unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by trustees, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant in connection with the successful defense of any act, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustees, officers or controlling persons in connection with the shares being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issues.

Item 25. Business and Other Connections of Investment Adviser

        Incorporated by reference to the Statement of Additional Information pursuant to Rule 411 under the Securities Act of 1933.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

         THIS INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (this “ Agreement ”) is made as of November 18, 2004 between Intrepid Capital Management Funds Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “ Trust ”), and Intrepid Capital Management, Inc. (the “ Adviser ”).

RECITALS:

         WHEREAS , the Trust is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “ Act ”) as an open-end management investment company consisting of one series, Intrepid Capital Fund (the “ Fund ”); and

         WHEREAS , the Trust desires to retain the Adviser, which is an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as the investment adviser for the Fund.

AGREEMENT:

         NOW , THEREFORE , the Trust and the Adviser do mutually promise and agree as follows:

        1.     Employment . The Trust hereby employs the Adviser to manage the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement. The Adviser hereby accepts such employment for the compensation herein provided and agrees during such period to render the services and to assume the obligations herein set forth.

        2.     Authority of the Adviser . The Adviser shall supervise and manage the investment portfolio of the Fund, and, subject to such policies as the Board of Trustees of the Trust may determine, direct the purchase and sale of investment securities in the day to day management of the Fund. The Adviser shall for all purposes herein be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Trust in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Trust. However, one or more members, officers or employees of the Adviser may serve as trustees and/or officers of the Trust, but without compensation or reimbursement of expenses for such services from the Trust. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require the Trust to take any action contrary to its charter documents, as amended or supplemented, or any applicable statute or regulation, or to relieve or deprive the Board of Trustees of the Trust of its responsibility for and control of the affairs of the Trust.


        3.     Expenses . The Adviser, at its own expense and without reimbursement from the Trust, shall furnish office space, and all necessary office facilities, equipment and executive personnel for managing the investments of the Fund. The Adviser shall not be required to pay any expenses of the Fund except as provided herein if the total expenses borne by the Fund, including the Adviser’s fee and the fees paid to the Fund’s administrator, but excluding all federal, state and local taxes, interest, reimbursement payments to securities lenders for dividend and interest payments on securities sold short, brokerage commissions and extraordinary items, in any year exceed that percentage of the average net asset value of the Fund for such year, as determined by valuations made as of the close of each business day, which is the most restrictive percentage provided by the state laws of the various states in which the Fund’s shares are qualified for sale or, if the states in which the Fund’s shares are qualified for sale impose no such restrictions, 3.00%. The expenses of the Fund’s operations borne by the Fund include by way of illustration and not limitation, trustees’ fees paid to those trustees who are not interested trustees under the Act, the professional costs of preparing and printing registration statements required under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Act (and amendments thereto), the expense of registering its shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in the various states, expenses incurred pursuant to the Fund’s Rule 12b-1 Service and Distribution Plan, the printing and distribution cost of prospectuses mailed to existing shareholders, trustee and officer liability insurance, reports to shareholders, reports to government authorities and proxy statements, interest charges on any borrowings, dividend and interest payments on securities sold short, taxes, legal expenses, salaries of administrative and clerical personnel, association membership dues, auditing and accounting services, insurance premiums, brokerage commissions and other expenses connected with the execution of portfolio securities transactions, fees and expenses of the custodian of the Fund’s assets, expenses of calculating the net asset value and repurchasing and redeeming shares, printing and mailing expenses, charges and expenses of dividend disbursing agents, registrars and share transfer agents and the cost of keeping all necessary shareholder records and accounts.

        The Trust shall monitor the Fund’s expense ratio on a monthly basis. If the accrued amount of the expenses of the Fund exceeds the expense limitation established herein, the Fund shall create an account receivable from the Adviser in the amount of such excess. In such a situation the monthly payment of the Adviser’s fee will be reduced by the amount of such excess, subject to adjustment month by month during the balance of the Trust’s fiscal year if accrued expenses thereafter fall below the expense limitation.

        4.     Compensation of the Adviser . For the services to be rendered by the Adviser hereunder, the Trust through the Fund shall pay to the Adviser an advisory fee, paid monthly, based on the average net assets of the Fund, as determined by valuations made as of the close of each business day of the month. The advisory fee shall be 1.00% per annum on the first $500 million of the Fund’s average daily net assets and 0.80% per annum on the Fund’s average daily net assets in excess of $500 million. For any month in which this Agreement is not in effect for the entire month, such fee shall be reduced proportionately on the basis of the number of calendar days during which it is in effect and the fee computed upon the average net assets of the business days during which it is so in effect.

        5.     Ownership of Shares of the Fund . The Adviser shall not take an ownership position in the Fund, and shall not permit any of its members, officers or employees to take a long or short position in the shares of the Fund, except for the purchase of shares of the Fund for investment purposes at the same price as that available to the public at the time of purchase.

2


        6.     Exclusivity . The services of the Adviser to the Fund hereunder are not to be deemed exclusive and the Adviser shall be free to furnish similar services to others as long as the services hereunder are not impaired thereby. Although the Adviser has agreed to permit the Fund and the Trust to use the names “Intrepid” and “Intrepid Capital Management,” if they so desire, it is understood and agreed that the Adviser reserves the right to use and to permit other persons, firms or corporations, including investment companies, to use such name, and that the Fund and the Trust will not use such names if the Adviser ceases to be the Fund’s sole investment adviser. During the period that this Agreement is in effect, the Adviser shall be the Fund’s sole investment adviser.

        7.     Liability . In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or duties hereunder on the part of the Adviser, the Adviser shall not be subject to liability to the Fund or to any shareholder of the Fund 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.

        8.     Brokerage Commissions . The Adviser may cause the Fund to pay a broker-dealer which provides brokerage and research services to the Adviser, as such services are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”), a commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount another broker-dealer would have charged for effecting such transaction, if the Adviser determines in good faith that such amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of brokerage and research services provided by the executing broker-dealer viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or his overall responsibilities with respect to the accounts as to which he exercises investment discretion (as defined in Section 3(a)(35) of the Exchange Act).

        9.     Code of Ethics . The Adviser has adopted a written code of ethics complying with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 under the Act and has provided the Trust with a copy of the code of ethics and evidence of its adoption. Upon written request of the Trust, the Adviser shall permit the Trust to examine any reports required to be made by the Adviser pursuant to Rule 17j-1(1) under the Act.

        10.     Amendments . This Agreement may be amended by the mutual consent of the parties; provided, however, that in no event may it be amended without the approval of the Board of Trustees of the Trust in the manner required by the Act, and, if required by the Act, by the vote of the majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, as defined in the Act.

3


        11.     Termination . This Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by the Board of Trustees of the Trust or by a vote of the majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, as defined in the Act, upon giving written notice 60 calendar days in advance to the Adviser. This Agreement may be terminated by the Adviser at any time upon giving written notice 60 calendar days in advance to the Trust. This Agreement shall terminate automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in Section 2(a)(4) of the Act). Subject to prior termination as previously provided herein, this Agreement shall continue in effect for two years from the date hereof and indefinitely thereafter, but only so long as the continuance after such two year period is specifically approved annually by (i) the Board of Trustees of the Trust or by the vote of the majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund (as defined in the Act) and (ii) the Board of Trustees of the Trust in the manner required by the Act, provided that any such approval may be made effective not more than 60 calendar days thereafter.

        WHEREAS, the Advisor serves as the investment advisor for the Trust and is duly registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and any applicable state securities laws, as an investment advisor; and

  B. During the continuous public offering of Shares of the Funds, the Distributor will hold itself available to receive orders, satisfactory to the Distributor, for the purchase of Shares of the Funds and will accept such orders on behalf of the Trust.

7. Indemnification

  A. The Trust shall indemnify, defend and hold the Distributor and each of its present or former members, officers, employees, representatives and any person who controls or previously controlled the Distributor within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, free and harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, demands, liabilities, damages and expenses (including the costs of investigating or defending any alleged losses, claims, demands, liabilities, damages or expenses and any reasonable counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) (collectively, “Losses”) that the Distributor, each of its present and former members, officers, employees or representatives or any such controlling person, may incur under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other statute (including Blue Sky laws) or any rule or regulation thereunder, or under common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement, or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any Prospectus, as from time to time amended or supplemented, or in any annual or interim report to shareholders, or in any advertisements or sales literature prepared by the Trust or its agent, or arising out of or based upon any omission, or alleged omission, to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or based upon the Trust’s failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement or applicable law; provided, however, that the Trust’s obligation to indemnify the Distributor and any of the foregoing indemnitees shall not be deemed to cover any Losses arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, Prospectus, annual or interim report, or any such advertisement or sales literature in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Distributor and furnished to the Trust or its counsel by the Distributor in writing and acknowledging the purpose of its use for the purpose of, and used in, the preparation thereof. The Trust’s agreement to indemnify the Distributor, and any of the foregoing indemnitees, as the case may be, with respect to any action, is expressly conditioned upon the Trust being notified of such action or claim of loss brought against the Distributor, or any of the foregoing indemnitees, within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon the Distributor, or such person, unless the failure to give notice does not prejudice the Trust. Such notification shall be given by letter or by telegram addressed to the Trust’s President, but the failure so to notify the Trust of any such action shall not relieve the Trust from any liability which the Trust may have to the person against whom such action is brought by reason of any such untrue, or alleged untrue, statement or omission, or alleged omission, otherwise than on account of the Trust’s indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7(A).

6


  B. The Trust shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense, or if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such Losses, but if the Trust elects to assume the defense, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Trust and approved by the Distributor, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event the Trust elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such counsel, the indemnified defendant or defendants in such suit shall bear the reasonable fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by them. If the Trust does not elect to assume the defense of any such suit, or in case the Distributor does not, in the exercise of reasonable judgment, approve of counsel chosen by the Trust, or if under prevailing law or legal codes of ethics, the same counsel cannot effectively represent the interests of both the Trust and the Distributor, and each of its present or former members, officers, employees, representatives or any controlling person, the Trust will reimburse the indemnified person or persons named as defendant or defendants in such suit, for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by Distributor and them. The Trust’s indemnification agreement contained in Sections 7(A) and 7(B) herein shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Distributor, and each of its present or former members, officers, employees, representatives or any controlling person, and shall survive the delivery of any Shares and the termination of this Agreement. This agreement of indemnity will inure exclusively to the Distributor’s benefit, to the benefit of each of its present or former members, officers, employees or representatives or to the benefit of any controlling persons and their successors. The Trust agrees promptly to notify the Distributor of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the Trust or any of its officers or trustees in connection with the issue and sale of any of the Shares.




7


  C. The Trust shall advance attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by any person in defending any claim, demand, action or suit which is the subject of a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law.

  D. The Distributor shall indemnify, defend and hold the Trust and each of its present or former trustees, officers, employees, representatives and any person who controls or previously controlled the Trust within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, free and harmless from and against any and all Losses that the Trust, each of its present or former trustees, officers, employees, representatives, or any such controlling person may incur under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other statute (including Blue Sky laws) or any rule or regulation thereunder, or under common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon any untrue, or alleged untrue, statement of a material fact contained in the Trust’s Registration Statement or any Prospectus, as from time to time amended or supplemented, or arising out of or based upon Distributor’s failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement or applicable law, or the omission, or alleged omission, to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement not misleading, but only if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information relating to the Distributor and furnished to the Trust or its counsel by the Distributor for the purpose of, and used in, the preparation thereof. The Distributor’s agreement to indemnify the Trust, and any of the foregoing indemnitees, is expressly conditioned upon the Distributor being notified of any action or claim of loss brought against the Trust, and any of the foregoing indemnitees, such notification to be given by letter or telegram addressed to the Distributor’s President, within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon the Trust or such person unless the failure to give notice does not prejudice the Distributor, but the failure so to notify the Distributor of any such action shall not relieve the Distributor from any liability which the Distributor may have to the person against whom such action is brought by reason of any such untrue, or alleged untrue, statement or omission, otherwise than on account of the Distributor’s indemnity agreement contained in this Section 7(D).

8


  E. The Distributor shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense or if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such loss, claim, demand, liability, damage or expense, but if the Distributor elects to assume the defense, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Distributor and approved by the Trust, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event the Distributor elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such counsel, the indemnified defendant or defendants in such suit shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by them. If the Distributor does not elect to assume the defense of any such suit, or in case the Trust does not, in the exercise of reasonable judgment, approve of counsel chosen by the Distributor, or reasonable fees and expenses of any if under prevailing law or legal codes of ethics, the same counsel cannot effectively represent the interests of both the Trust and the Distributor, and each of its present or former members, officers, employees, representatives or any controlling person, the Distributor will reimburse the indemnified person or persons named as defendant or defendants in such suit, for the counsel retained by the Trust and them. The Distributor’s indemnification agreement contained in Sections 7(D) and 7(E) herein shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Trust, and each of its present or former trustees, officers, employees, representatives or any controlling person, and shall survive the delivery of any Shares and the termination of this Agreement. This Agreement of indemnity will inure exclusively to the Trust’s benefit, to the benefit of each of its present or former trustees, officers, employees or representatives or to the benefit of any controlling persons and their successors. The Distributor agrees promptly to notify the Trust of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the Distributor or any of its officers or trustees in connection with the issue and sale of any of the Shares.

  F. No person shall be obligated to provide indemnification under this Section 6 if such indemnification would be impermissible under the 1940 Act, the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or the rules of the NASD; provided, however, in such event indemnification shall be provided under this Section 7 to the maximum extent so permissible. The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

8. Obligations of the Trust

        This Agreement is executed by and on behalf of the Trust and the obligations of the Trust hereunder are not binding upon any of the trustees, officers or shareholders of the Trust individually, but are binding only upon the Trust and with respect to the Funds to which such obligations pertain.

  B. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be terminated, without the payment of any penalty, with respect to a particular Fund: (i) through a failure to renew this Agreement at the end of a term, (ii) upon mutual consent of the parties; or (iii) upon no less than sixty (60) days’ written notice, by either the Trust upon the vote of a majority of the members of its Board who are not “interested persons” of the Trust and have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this Agreement or by vote of a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” of a Fund, or by the Distributor. The terms of this Agreement shall not be waived, altered, modified, amended or supplemented in any manner whatsoever except by a written instrument signed by the Distributor and the Trust. If required under the 1940 Act, any such amendment must be approved by the Trust’s Board, including a majority of the Trust’s Board who are not “interested persons” of any party to this Agreement, by a vote cast in person at a meeting for the purpose of voting on such amendment. In the event that such amendment affects the Advisor, the written instrument shall also be signed by the Advisor. This Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of its assignment.

  C. Sections 7, 9, 11 and 12 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

11. Confidentiality

        The Distributor agrees on behalf of its employees to treat all records relative to the Trust and prior, present or potential shareholders of the Trust as confidential, and not to use such records for any purpose other than performance of the Distributor’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement, except after notification and prior approval by the Trust, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and may not be withheld where the Distributor may be exposed to civil or criminal proceedings for failure to comply, when requested to divulge such information by duly constituted authorities, when subject to governmental or regulatory audit or investigation, or when so requested by the Trust. Records and information that have become known to the public through no wrongful act of the Distributor or any of its employees, agents or representatives shall not be subject to this paragraph.

        In accordance with Regulation S-P, the Distributor will not disclose any non-public personal information, as defined in Regulation S-P, received from the Trust or any Fund regarding any Fund shareholder; provided, however, that the Distributor may disclose such information to any party as necessary in the ordinary course of business to carry out the purposes for which such information was disclosed to the Distributor, or as may be required by law. The Distributor agrees to use reasonable precautions to protect and prevent the unintentional disclosure of such non-public personal information.

13. Miscellaneous

        The captions in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and in no way define or delimit any of the provisions hereof or otherwise affect their construction or effect. Any provision of this Agreement which may be determined by competent authority to be prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors. As used in this Agreement, the terms “majority of the outstanding voting securities,” “interested person,” and “assignment” shall have the same meaning as such terms have in the 1940 Act.

  Based on this determination, the Trust hereby instructs and directs USBFS to implement the Procedures on the Trust’s behalf, as such may be amended or revised from time to time.

  C. Any reports received by USBFS from any government agency or applicable industry self-regulatory organization pertaining to USBFS’s anti-money laundering monitoring on behalf of the Trust;

  D. Prompt written notification of any action taken in response to anti-money laundering violations as described in (a), (b) or (c); and

Subsequent to the initial three-year term, this Agreement may be terminated by either party upon giving ninety (90) days prior written notice to the other party or such shorter period as is mutually agreed upon by the parties. However, this Agreement may be amended by mutual written consent of the parties.

10. Duties in the Event of Termination

  In the event that, in connection with termination, a successor to any of USBFS’s duties or responsibilities hereunder is designated by the Trust by written notice to USBFS, USBFS will promptly, upon such termination and at the expense of the Trust, transfer to such successor all relevant books, records, correspondence, and other data established or maintained by USBFS under this Agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Trust (if such form differs from the form in which USBFS has maintained, the Trust shall pay any expenses associated with transferring the data to such form), and will cooperate in the transfer of such duties and responsibilities, including provision for assistance from USBFS’s personnel in the establishment of books, records, and other data by such successor.
