AGREEMENT:

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, representations, and warranties made herein, covenants and agreements hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the Parties, and Old Mutual Capital and Touchstone to the extent indicated above, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE REORGANIZATION

1.1 The Reorganization . In accordance with the Agreement and Declaration of Trust and the Amended and Restated By-laws, as they may be amended from time to time, of the Acquired Trust (the “ Old Mutual Governing Documents ”), at the Effective Time (as defined below), upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, and on the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, the Acquired Fund shall assign, deliver and otherwise transfer all Fund Assets, subject to all of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund (the “ Liabilities ”), to the Acquiring Fund, and the Acquiring Fund shall assume all of the Liabilities of the Acquired Fund. In consideration of the foregoing, the Acquiring Fund, at the Effective Time shall deliver to the Acquired Fund full and fractional (to the third decimal place) shares of the Acquiring Fund. The aggregate number of shares of the Acquiring Fund shall be determined as set forth in paragraph 2.3 by dividing (a) the value of the Fund Assets attributable to the Acquired Fund, net of the Acquired Fund’s Liabilities (computed as of the Valuation Time (as defined below) in the manner set forth in paragraph 2.1), by (b) the net asset value of one share of the corresponding class of the Acquiring Fund shares (computed as of the Valuation Time in the manner set forth in paragraph 2.2). Holders of each class of shares of the Acquired Fund will receive shares of the Corresponding Class, as set forth in Section E of the Recitals and Exhibit A to this Agreement, of the Acquiring Fund, as set forth in Section A of the Recitals. At and after the Effective Time, all of the Fund Assets of the Acquired Fund shall become and be included in the Fund Assets of the Acquiring Fund and the Liabilities of the Acquired Fund shall become and be the Liabilities of and shall attach to the Acquiring Fund. At and after the Effective Time, the Liabilities of the Acquired Fund may be enforced only against the Acquiring Fund to the same extent as if such Liabilities had been incurred by the Acquiring Fund subject to any defense and/or set off that the Acquired Fund was entitled to assert immediately prior to the Effective Time and further subject to any defense and/or setoff that the Acquiring Trust or the Acquiring Fund may from time to time be entitled to assert.

1.2 The Acquired Fund Assets .

(a) At least ten Business Days prior to the Valuation Time, the Acquired Fund will provide the Acquiring Fund with a schedule of the securities and other assets and Liabilities of the Acquired Fund. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Acquiring Fund has provided the Acquired Fund with a copy of its current investment objective, investment policies, principal investment strategies, and restrictions and will provide the Acquired Fund with a written notice of any changes thereto through the Valuation Time. The Acquired Fund reserves the right to sell any of the securities or other assets shown on the schedule it provides to the Acquiring Fund pursuant to this paragraph 1.2(a) in the ordinary course as necessary to meet distribution and redemption requirements prior to the Valuation Time but will not, without the prior approval of the Acquiring Fund, acquire any additional securities other than securities which the Acquiring Fund may purchase in accordance with its stated investment objective and policies.

Table of Contents - Part A

(b) At least five Business Days prior to the Valuation Time, the Acquiring Fund will advise the Acquired Fund of any investments of the Acquired Fund shown on the Acquired Fund’s schedule provided pursuant to paragraph 1.2(a) which the Acquiring Fund would not be permitted to hold (i) under its investment objective, principal investment strategies or investment restrictions; (ii) under applicable Law; or (iii) because the transfer of such investments would result in material operational or administrative difficulties to the Acquiring Fund in connection with facilitating the orderly transition of the Acquired Fund’s Fund Assets. Under such circumstances, to the extent practicable, the Acquired Fund will, if requested by the Acquiring Fund and, to the extent permissible and consistent with its own investment objectives and policies and the fiduciary duties of the investment adviser or sub-adviser responsible for the portfolio management of the Acquired Fund, dispose of such investments prior to the Valuation Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein will require the Acquired Fund to dispose of any portfolio securities or other investments of the Acquired Fund, if, in the reasonable judgment of the Old Mutual Board or the Acquired Fund’s investment adviser or sub-adviser, such disposition would adversely affect the tax-free nature of the Reorganization for federal income tax purposes or would otherwise not be in the best interests of the Acquired Fund and its shareholders.

1.3 Assumption of Liabilities . The Acquired Fund will, to the extent permissible and consistent with its own investment objectives and policies, use its best efforts to discharge all of the Liabilities of the Acquired Fund prior to or at the Effective Time. The Acquiring Fund will assume all of the Liabilities of the Acquired Fund.

1.4 Distribution of Acquiring Fund Shares . Immediately upon receipt, the Acquired Fund will distribute the Corresponding Class shares of the Acquiring Fund received by the Acquired Fund from the Acquiring Fund pursuant to paragraph 1.1 pro rata to the record holders of shares of the Acquired Fund. Such distribution will be accomplished by transferring the Acquiring Fund Shares then credited to the Acquired Fund’s account on the Books and Records of the Acquiring Fund to open accounts on the Books and Records of the Acquiring Fund established and maintained by the Acquiring Fund’s transfer agent in the names of record holders of the Acquired Fund and representing the respective pro rata number of the Acquiring Fund Shares due to such record holder. All issued and outstanding shares of the Acquired Fund will, without further notice, be cancelled promptly by the Acquired Fund on the Acquired Fund’s Books and Records. Any such shares issued and outstanding prior to such cancellation shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Acquiring Fund Shares issued to the Acquired Fund in accordance with paragraph 1.1 above. In addition, each record holder of the Acquired Fund shall have the right to receive any unpaid dividends or other distributions which were declared with respect to his/her or its shares of the Acquired Fund at or before the Valuation Time.

1.5 Liquidation of the Acquired Fund . As soon as conveniently practicable after the distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares pursuant to paragraph 1.4 has been made, the Acquired Fund shall take, in accordance with Delaware law, the 1940 Act and the Old Mutual Governing Documents, all such other steps as may be necessary or appropriate to effect a complete liquidation and termination of the Acquired Fund.

1.6 Transfer Taxes . Any transfer taxes payable on issuance of the Acquiring Fund Shares in a name other than that of the record holder of the Acquired Fund shares on the Acquired Fund’s Books and Records shall be paid by the Person to whom such Acquiring Fund Shares are issued and transferred, as a condition of that transfer.

This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Acquiring Trust on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, and assuming due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the Acquired Trust on behalf of the Acquired Fund, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Acquiring Trust, as it relates to the Acquiring Fund, enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other Laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights, to general equity principles and to any limitations on indemnity as may be required under federal and state securities Laws).

(d) Except for consents, approvals, or waivers to be received prior to the Effective Time, including shareholder approval by the Acquired Fund, and upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the Acquiring Trust on behalf of the Acquiring Fund does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not: (i) violate or conflict with the terms, conditions or provisions of the Touchstone Governing Documents, or of any material contract, agreement, indenture, instrument, or other undertaking to which the Acquiring Trust is a party or by which the Acquiring Trust or the Acquiring Fund is bound, (ii) result in the acceleration of any obligation, or the imposition of any penalty, under any material agreement, indenture, instrument, contract, lease or other undertaking to which the Acquiring Trust is a party or by which the Acquiring Trust or the Acquiring Fund is bound, (iii) result in a breach or violation by the Acquiring Trust or the Acquiring Fund of any terms, conditions, or provisions of any Law or Order, or (iv) require any consent or approval of, filing with or notice to, any Governmental or Regulatory Body.

In regard to the statement above that the Acquiring Fund shares will be non-assessable, it is noted that the Acquiring Trust is a “Massachusetts business trust” and under Massachusetts’ Law, shareholders could, under certain circumstances, be held personally liable for the obligations of the Acquiring Fund; however, the Acquiring Fund has included appropriate provisions disclaiming such liability in all material contracts entered into between the Acquiring Fund and any third-party.

(k) As of the Valuation Time, the Acquiring Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information will conform in all material respects to the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act and the 1940 Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder and will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading.

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION

(a) Article VI of the Registrant's Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification of officers and Trustees as follows:

Section 6.4 Indemnification of Trustees, Officers, etc.

The Trust shall indemnify each of its Trustees and officers, including persons who serve at the Trust's request as directors, officers or trustees of another organization in which the Trust has any interest as a shareholder, creditor or otherwise (hereinafter referred to as a "Covered Person") against all liabilities, including but not limited to amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or as fines and penalties, and expenses, including reasonable accountants' and counsel fees, incurred by any Covered Person in connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, before any court or administrative or legislative body, in which such Covered Person may be or may have been involved as a party or otherwise or with which such person may be or may have been threatened, while in office or thereafter, by reason of being or having been such a Trustee or officer, director or trustee, and except that no Covered Person shall be indemnified against any liability to the Trust or its Shareholders to which such Covered Person would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such Covered Person's office ("disabling conduct"). Anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, no Covered Person shall be indemnified for any liability to the Trust or its Shareholders to which such Covered Person would otherwise be subject unless (1) a final decision on the merits is made by a court or other body before whom the proceeding was brought that the Covered Person to be indemnified was not liable by reason of disabling conduct or, (2) in the absence of such a decision, a reasonable determination is made, based upon a review of the facts, that the Covered Person was not liable by reason of disabling conduct, by (a) the vote of a majority of a quorum of Trustees who are neither "interested persons" of the Company as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 nor parties to the proceeding "disinterested, non-party Trustees"), or (b) an independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

Section 6.5 Advances of Expenses.

The Trust shall advance attorneys' fees or other expenses incurred by a Covered Person in defending a proceeding, upon the undertaking by or on behalf of the Covered Person to repay the advance unless it is ultimately determined that such Covered Person is entitled to indemnification, so long as one of the following conditions is met: (i) the Covered Person shall provide security for his undertaking, (ii) the Trust shall be insured against losses arising by reason of any lawful advances, or (iii) a majority of a quorum of the disinterested non-party Trustees of the Trust, or an independent legal counsel in a written opinion, shall determine, based on a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry), that there is reason to believe that the Covered Person ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification.

Section 6.6 Indemnification Not Exclusive, etc.

The right of indemnification provided by this Article VI shall not be exclusive of or affect any other rights to which any such Covered Person may be entitled. As used in this Article VI, "Covered Person" shall include such person's heirs, executors and administrators, an "interested Covered Person" is one against whom the action, suit or other proceeding in question or another action, suit or other proceeding on the same or similar grounds is then or has been pending or threatened, and a "disinterested" person is a person against whom none of such actions, suits or other proceedings or another action, suit or other proceeding on the same or similar grounds is then or has been pending or threatened. Nothing contained in this article shall affect any rights to indemnification to which personnel of the Trust, other than Trustees and officers, and other persons may be entitled by contract or otherwise under law, nor the power of the Trust to purchase and maintain liability insurance on behalf of any such person.

Page - 333

(b) The Registrant maintains a mutual fund and investment advisory professional and directors and officer's liability policy. The policy provides coverage to the Registrant, its trustees and officers and includes losses by reason of any act, error, omission, misstatement, misleading statement, neglect or breach of duty. The Registrant may not pay for insurance that protects the Trustees and officers against liabilities rising from action involving willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of their offices.

The Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements provide that Touchstone Advisors, Inc. (or a Subadvisor) shall not be liable for any act or omission in the course of rendering services, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence or reckless disregard by Touchstone (or a Subadvisor) of its obligations under the Agreement.
