                        INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT
                      SEI INSTITUTIONAL INTERNATIONAL TRUST

         AGREEMENT made as of this 4th day of April, 2000, between SEI
Investments Management Corporation (the "Adviser") and Schroder Investment
Management North America Inc., (the "Sub-Adviser").

         WHEREAS, SEI Institutional International Trust, a Massachusetts
business trust (the "Trust"), is registered as an open-end management
investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the "1940 Act"); and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement
dated December 16, 1994 (the "Advisory Agreement") with the Trust, pursuant to
which the Adviser will act as investment adviser to the SEI VP Emerging Markets
Equity Fund (the "Fund"), which is a series of the Trust; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser, with the approval of the Trust, desires to
retain the Sub-Adviser to provide investment advisory services to the Adviser
in connection with the management of the Fund, and the Sub-Adviser is willing
to render such investment advisory services.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.       DUTIES OF THE SUB-ADVISER. Subject to supervision by the Adviser and
         the Trust's Board of Trustees, the Sub-Adviser shall manage all of the
         securities and other assets of the Fund entrusted to it hereunder (the
         "Assets"), including the purchase, retention and disposition of the
         Assets, in accordance with the Fund's investment objectives, policies
         and restrictions as stated in Schedule A attached hereto and in the
         Fund's prospectus and statement of additional information, as
         currently in effect and as amended or supplemented from time to time
         and provided to the Sub-Adviser (referred to collectively as the
         "Prospectus"), and subject to the following:

(a)      The Sub-Adviser shall, in consultation with and subject to the
         direction of the Adviser, determine from time to time what Assets will
         be purchased, retained or sold by the Fund, and what portion of the
         Assets will be invested or held uninvested in cash.

(b)      In the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement,
         the Sub-Adviser shall act in conformity with the Trust's Declaration
         of Trust (as defined herein) and the Prospectus and with the written
         instructions and directions of the Adviser and of the Board of
         Trustees of the Trust and will conform to and comply with the
         requirements of the 1940 Act, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and
         all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations, as each
         is amended from time to time.

(c)      The  Sub-Adviser  shall  determine  the Assets to be purchased or sold
         by the Fund as provided in subparagraph (a) and will place  orders
         with or  through  such  persons,  brokers or dealers to carry out the
         policy with respect to  brokerage  set forth in the Fund's
         Registration

                                           1
<PAGE>

         Statement (as defined herein) and Prospectus or as the Board of
         Trustees or the Adviser may direct in writing from time to time, in
         conformity with federal securities laws. In executing Fund
         transactions and selecting brokers or dealers, the Sub-Adviser will
         not be required to direct brokerage fees and will use its best efforts
         to seek on behalf of the Fund the best overall terms available. In
         assessing the best overall terms available for any transaction, the
         Sub-Adviser shall consider all factors that it deems relevant,
         including the breadth of the market in the security, the price of the
         security, the financial condition and execution capability of the
         broker or dealer, and the reasonableness of the commission, if any,
         both for the specific transaction and on a continuing basis. In
         evaluating the best overall terms available, and in selecting the
         broker-dealer to execute a particular transaction, the Sub-Adviser may
         also consider the brokerage and research services provided (as those
         terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of
         1934). Consistent with any guidelines established by the Board of
         Trustees of the Trust and provided to the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser
         is authorized to pay to a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage
         and research services a commission for executing a portfolio
         transaction for the Fund which is in excess of the amount of
         commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting
         that transaction if, but only if, the Sub-Adviser determines in good
         faith that such commission was reasonable in relation to the value of
         the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer
         -- viewed in terms of that particular transaction or terms of the
         overall responsibilities of the Sub-Adviser to the Fund. In addition,
         the Sub-Adviser is authorized to allocate purchase and sale orders for
         securities to brokers or dealers (including brokers and dealers that
         are affiliated with the Adviser, Sub-Adviser or the Trust's principal
         underwriter) to take into account the sale of shares of the Trust if
         the Sub-Adviser believes that the quality of the transaction and the
         commission are comparable to what they would be with other qualified
         firms. In no instance, however, will the Fund's Assets be purchased
         from or sold to the Adviser, Sub-Adviser, the Trust's principal
         underwriter, or any affiliated person of either the Trust, Adviser,
         the Sub-Adviser or the principal underwriter, acting as principal in
         the transaction, except to the extent permitted by the Securities and
         Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the 1940 Act. Notwithstanding any
         other provision in this Agreement and documents referenced therein, in
         the execution of transactions for the Fund, the Sub-Adviser is
         authorized to select any broker or dealer which in the Adviser's
         opinion is capable of properly executing the transaction or
         transactions then under consideration in a manner which is most
         beneficial to the Fund.

(d)      The Sub-Adviser shall maintain all books and records with respect to
         transactions involving the Assets required by subparagraphs (b)(5),
         (6), (7), (9), (10) and (11) and paragraph (f) of Rule 31a-1 under the
         1940 Act. The Sub-Adviser shall provide to the Adviser or the Board of
         Trustees such periodic and special reports, balance sheets or
         financial information, and such other information with regard to its
         affairs as the Adviser or Board of Trustees may reasonably request.

         The Sub-Adviser shall keep the books and records relating to the
         Assets required to be maintained by the Sub-Adviser under this
         Agreement and shall timely furnish to the Adviser all information
         relating to the Sub-Adviser's services under this Agreement needed by
         the Adviser to keep the other books and records of the Fund required
         by Rule 31a-1 under the


                                          2
<PAGE>

         1940 Act. The Sub-Adviser shall also furnish to the Adviser any other
         information relating to the Assets that is required to be filed by the
         Adviser or the Trust with the SEC or sent to shareholders under the
         1940 Act (including the rules adopted thereunder) or any exemptive or
         other relief that the Adviser or the Trust obtains from the SEC, and
         will make all filings required to be made by the Sub-Adviser under
         Section 13 of the Securities Act of 1933 and the related rules and
         forms. The Sub-Adviser agrees that all records that it maintains on
         behalf of the Fund are property of the Fund and the Sub-Adviser will
         surrender promptly to the Fund any of such records upon the Fund's
         request; provided, however, that the Sub-Adviser may retain a copy of
         such records. In addition, for the duration of this Agreement, the Sub
         -Adviser shall preserve for the periods prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under
         the 1940 Act any such records as are required to be maintained by it
         pursuant to this Agreement, and shall transfer said records to any
         successor sub-adviser upon the termination of this Agreement (or, if
         there is no successor sub-adviser, to the Adviser).

(e)      The Sub-Adviser shall provide the Fund's custodian on each business
         day with information relating to all transactions of such day
         concerning the Assets and shall provide the Adviser with such
         information upon request of the Adviser.

(f)      The investment management services provided by the Sub-Adviser under
         this Agreement are not to be deemed exclusive and the Sub-Adviser
         shall be free to render similar services to others, as long as such
         services do not materially impair the services rendered to the Adviser
         or the Trust. The Adviser understands that the Sub-Adviser's
         affiliates offer a broad range of brokerage and investment banking
         services, that the employees of the Sub-Adviser and its affiliates may
         from time to time act as directors, officers, or employees of
         companies whose securities are publicly traded, and that as a result,
         such employees may acquire information of a confidential nature. The
         Adviser agrees that the Sub-Adviser may, but shall not be required to,
         render investment advice with respect to any such company, and that
         the Sub-Adviser may in its discretion withhold any such knowledge or
         information or refuse to advise with respect to such company, whether
         or not the Assets shall include securities of such company, if in the
         Sub-Adviser's judgment the disclosure of such knowledge or information
         or the rendering of investment advice on the basis thereof would be
         unfair, inequitable, a breach of any fiduciary obligation of the Sub-
         Adviser to some other person, or unlawful. For the same reasons, the
         Sub-Adviser may, in its discretion, exclude securities and other
         property from the Assets, and the Sub-Adviser shall not be required to
         give advice on securities and other property which it or its
         affiliates have distributed, are distributing or propose to
         distribute.

(g)      The Sub-Adviser shall promptly notify the Adviser of any financial
         condition it may incur that is likely to impair the Sub-Adviser's
         ability to fulfill its commitment under this Agreement.

(h)      The Sub-Adviser shall review all proxy solicitation materials and be
         responsible for voting and handling all proxies in relation to the
         securities held in the Fund. The Adviser shall instruct the custodian
         and other parties providing services to the Fund to promptly forward
         proxies to the Sub-Adviser.


                                          3

(i)      Services to be furnished by the Sub-Adviser under this Agreement may
         be furnished through the medium of any of the Sub-Adviser's partners,
         officers or employees.

2.       DUTIES OF THE ADVISER. The Adviser shall continue to have
         responsibility for all services to be provided to the Fund pursuant to
         the Advisory Agreement and shall oversee and review the Sub-Adviser's
         performance of its duties under this Agreement; provided, however,
         that in connection with its management of the Assets, nothing herein
         shall be construed to relieve the Sub-Adviser of responsibility for
         compliance with the Trust's Declaration of Trust (as defined herein),
         the Prospectus, the written instructions and directions of the Board
         of Trustees of the Trust, the requirements of the 1940 Act, the
         Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and all other applicable federal and
         state laws and regulations, as each is amended from time to time.

3.       DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS. The Adviser has furnished the Sub-Adviser with
         copies properly certified or authenticated of each of the following
         documents:

(a)      The Trust's Agreement and Declaration of Trust, as filed with the
         Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (such
         Agreement and Declaration of Trust, as in effect on the date of this
         Agreement and as amended from time to time, herein called the
         "Declaration of Trust");

(b)      By-Laws of the Trust (such By-Laws, as in effect on the date of this
         Agreement and as amended from time to time, are herein called the
         "By-Laws");

(c)      Current Prospectus(es) of the Fund with Amendments.

4.       COMPENSATION TO THE SUB-ADVISER. For the services to be provided by
         the Sub-Adviser pursuant to this Agreement, the Adviser will pay the
         Sub-Adviser, and the Sub-Adviser agrees to accept as full compensation
         therefor, a sub-advisory fee at the rate specified in Schedule B which
         is attached hereto and made part of this Agreement. The fee will be
         calculated based on the average monthly market value of the Assets
         under the Sub-Adviser's management and will be paid to the Sub-Adviser
         monthly.

5.       INDEMNIFICATION. The Sub-Adviser shall indemnify and hold harmless the
         Adviser from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities or
         damages (including reasonable attorney's fees and other related
         expenses) howsoever directly arising from or in connection with any
         breach of this Agreement or negligence, willful default, fraud or bad
         faith of the Sub-Adviser in the performance of its duties hereunder or
         as otherwise may be required by law.

6.       DURATION  AND  TERMINATION.  This  Agreement  shall  become  effective
         upon its  approval by the Trust's Board of Trustees and by the vote of
         a majority of the outstanding  voting  securities of the Fund;
         provided,  however,  that at any time the Adviser shall have obtained
         exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange  Commission
         permitting it to engage a Sub-Adviser without first obtaining approval
         of the Agreement from a majority of the


                                          4
<PAGE>

         outstanding voting securities of the Fund(s) involved, the Agreement
         shall become effective upon its approval by the Trust's Board of
         Trustees. Any Sub-Adviser so selected and approved shall be without
         the protection accorded by shareholder approval of an investment
         adviser's receipt of compensation  under Section 36(b) of the 1940
         Act.

         This Agreement shall continue in effect for a period of more than two
         years from the date hereof only so long as continuance is specifically
         approved at least annually in conformance with the 1940 Act; provided,
         however, that this Agreement may be terminated with respect to the
         Fund (a) by the Fund at any time, without the payment of any penalty,
         by the vote of a majority of Trustees of the Trust or by the vote of a
         majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, (b) by the
         Adviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on not more
         than 60 days' nor less than 30 days' written notice to the sub-
         Adviser, or (c) by the Sub-Adviser at any time, without the payment of
         any penalty, on 90 days' written notice to the Adviser. This Agreement
         shall terminate automatically and immediately in the event of its
         "assignment", or in the event of a termination of the Adviser's
         agreement with the Trust. As used in this Section 6, the terms
         "assignment" and "vote of a majority of the outstanding voting
         securities" shall have the respective meanings set forth in the 1940
         Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, subject to such
         exceptions as may be granted by the SEC under the 1940 Act.

7.       GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws
         of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to conflict of
         law principles; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be
         construed as being inconsistent with the 1940 Act.

8.       SEVERABILITY. Should any part of this Agreement be held invalid by a
         court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of this
         Agreement shall not be affected thereby. This Agreement shall be
         binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
         their respective successors.

9.       NOTICE. Any notice, advice or report to be given pursuant to this
         Agreement shall be deemed sufficient if delivered or mailed by
         registered, certified or overnight mail, postage prepaid addressed by
         the party giving notice to the other party at the last address
         furnished by the other party:

         Notice shall be effective upon receipt.

10.      NON-HIRE/NON-SOLICITATION. The parties hereby agree that so long
         as the Sub-Adviser provides services to the Adviser or the Trust and
         for a period of one year following the date on which the Sub-Adviser
         ceases to provide services to the Adviser and the Trust, neither party
         shall for any reason, directly or indirectly, on its own behalf or on
         behalf of others, hire or solicit any person employed by the other
         party, whether or not such person is a full-time employee or whether
         or not any person's employment is pursuant to a written agreement or
         is at-will. The parties further agree that, to the extent that a party
         breaches the covenant described in this paragraph, the other party
         shall be entitled to pursue all appropriate remedies in law or equity.

11.      REPRESENTATIONS OF THE SUB-ADVISER. The Sub-Adviser represents that it

         Act of 1940 and is regulated in the conduct of its investment business

12.      LIABILITY OF THE SUB-ADVISER. (i) The Sub-Adviser shall not be liable
         for any loss or damage arising out of the performance of its duties
         hereunder unless such loss or damage arose out of or in connection
         with its breach of this Agreement or its negligence, willful default,
         bad faith, or fraud in the performance of its duties hereunder. (ii)
         As the Assets are held in the custody of State Street Bank and Trust
         Company, the Sub-Adviser shall have no responsibility or liability
         with respect to custody arrangements or the acts, omissions or other
         conduct of any custodian or sub-custodian of the Assets. (iii) The
         presence of any exculpatory language in this Agreement shall not be
         deemed by the Adviser, the Fund, the Sub-Adviser, any custodian or
         party appointed pursuant to this Agreement as in any way limiting
         causes of action and remedies which may, notwithstanding such
         language, be available either under common law or statutory law
         principles applicable to fiduciary relationships or under U.S. federal

         to this Agreement's subject matter. This Agreement may be executed in

PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVE

(the "Benchmark"). Performance attribution should demonstrate stock selection
consistently adding to excess returns.

GUIDELINES AND RESTRICTIONS

PERMITTED INVESTMENTS

In seeking to achieve the Performance Objective, the Subadvisor should invest
primarily in equity securities of issuers domiciled in, or organized under the
laws of, the countries that comprise the MSCI EMF Index, subject to the
guidelines or restrictions expressed in Table 1.

For the purposes of these guidelines, equity securities are defined to include
common stocks, securities convertible into common stocks, preferred stocks,
warrants and rights to subscribe to common stocks. The Sub-Adviser may also
invest in appropriate issuers through depository receipts including American
Depository Receipts and Global Depository Receipts. Securities should be
readily marketable. No holding should exceed its benchmark weight + 5%. If the
security is not in the benchmark then the maximum weight of that security
should not exceed 5% of the portfolio. Buying on margin and short selling are
not permitted. Please refer to the SEI International Trust Prospectus for a
listing of Permitted Investments.

COUNTRY AND REGIONAL EXPOSURES

Table 1 shows the MSCI EMF Index Country weights. The guidelines are put in
place to insure that the majority of total active risk (tracking error) should
come from specific asset risk and not from country exposure risk.

Subject to prior approval of SEI Asset Management, the Sub-Adviser may invest
up to 10% of the Mandate's assets in non-benchmark countries. The Sub-Adviser
may invest up to 5% of the Mandate's assets in individual non-benchmark
countries included in the MSCI World Index, subject to the condition that those
investments should derive more than 50% of their revenues or have more than 50%
of their assets in the emerging market countries. Investment in American
Depositary Receipts and Global Depository Receipts of Global Emerging Markets
issuers is permitted.

CURRENCY MANAGEMENT

This mandate is unhedged. Hedging should NOT be undertaken for the purposes of
enhancing returns. Currency hedging may be used strictly and only to cover
anticipated purchases and sales of securities.

CASH MANAGEMENT

The Fund should be FULLY INVESTED AT ALL TIMES. SEI will be managing cash flows
within the fund and will maintain a cash balance for any withdrawals to the
Fund. The Global Emerging Markets manager will be notified of additional cash
flows into the portfolio by SEI on a timely basis.

When possible the fully invested fund should be targeted at a cash level less
than 1.5% of the account's assets. It is understood that due to transactional
issues or settlement delays, the account could reach a maximum of 3.0% cash or
be in an overdraft position. However, this would be considered an aberration
from normal practice and when breached, a conversation should be initiated


                                       10
<PAGE>

with SEI. In order to facilitate a low cash percentage in the Subadvisors
portfolio, SEI Investments will manage cash flows within the SEI portfolio. The
Subadvisor will be notified by SEI Investments of any potential cash flows into
or out of the Subadvisors portfolio on a timely basis.

ACCOUNT DISPERSION

Because each account managed for SEI Investments is similar, dispersion among
the accounts should be minimized. However, due to uneven funding schedules,
performance between accounts may differ. The dispersion should be kept to
within 1.0% annually among all accounts managed for SEI Investments.

REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

MONTHLY REPORTING

-     Please  e-mail or fax a report of the monthly  return for each of the
      accounts  managed on SEI's behalf
-     Conference call between the SEI analyst and one of the fund's portfolio
      manager
-     Any material organizational changes
-     Any material changes in assets under management

QUARTERLY REPORTING

-     Quarterly performance questionnaire
-     Quarterly compliance questionnaire
-     Reported composite Information

ANNUAL REPORTING

-     An annual review of the markets and organization
-     Attend mutual fund board meeting once every two years

ORGANIZATION/OWNERSHIP CHANGES

The Sub-advisor will provide prompt notification of material changes in
ownership or key personnel. This includes, but is not limited to, the addition
or departure of any executive, portfolio manager, analyst, trader, marketing or
servicing personnel and/or any other individual significant to the investment
process or functioning of the overall business.

INVESTMENT PROCESS CHANGES

The Sub-advisor will provide prompt notification of material changes to the
investment process. This includes, but is not limited to, changes in
philosophy, universe screening models, valuation models, and portfolio
construction methodologies.
