<p style="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.2in">1. <u>Employment as a Portfolio
Manager.</u> The Fund, being duly authorized, hereby employs Westfield Capital Management Company, L.P. (&ldquo;Portfolio Manager&rdquo;)
as a discretionary portfolio manager, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, of that portion of the Fund&rsquo;s assets which the
Fund Manager determines to assign to the Portfolio Manager (those assets being referred to as the &ldquo;Portfolio Manager Account&rdquo;).
The Fund Manager may, from time to time, allocate and reallocate the Fund&rsquo;s assets among the Portfolio Manager and the other portfolio
managers of the Fund&rsquo;s assets. The Portfolio Manager will be an independent contractor and will have no authority to act for or
represent the Fund or the Fund Manager in any way or otherwise be deemed to be an agent of the Fund or the Fund Manager except as expressly
authorized in this Agreement or in another writing by the Fund Manager and the Portfolio Manager. The Portfolio Manager&rsquo;s responsibilities
for providing portfolio management services to the Fund shall be limited to the Portfolio Manager Account.</p>

Agreement.</p>

forth in its Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, as the same may be modified from time to time (together, the
&ldquo;Prospectus&rdquo;), the investment objectives, policies and restrictions of the Fund as determined from time to time by the
Board of Directors, and the investment and other restrictions set forth in the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, to the
supervision and control of the Board of Directors of the Fund, and to instructions from the Fund Manager. The Portfolio Manager
shall not, without the prior approval of the Fund or the Fund Manager, effect any transactions that would cause the Portfolio
Manager Account, treated as a separate fund, to be out of compliance with any of such restrictions or policies. The Portfolio
Manager shall not consult with any other portfolio manager of the Fund concerning transactions for the Fund in securities or other
assets.</p>

All portfolio transactions for the Portfolio Manager Account will be consummated by payment to or delivery by the custodian of the Fund
(the &ldquo;Custodian&rdquo;), or such depositories or agents as may be designated by the Custodian in writing, as custodian for the Fund,
of all cash and/or securities due to or from the Portfolio Manager Account, and the Portfolio Manager shall not have possession or custody
thereof or any responsibility or liability with respect to such custody. The Portfolio Manager shall advise and confirm in writing to
the Custodian all investment orders for the Portfolio Manager Account placed by it with brokers and dealers at the time. The Fund shall
issue to the Custodian such instructions as may be appropriate in connection with the settlement of any transaction initiated by the Portfolio
Manager. The Fund shall be responsible for all custodial arrangements and the payment of all custodial charges and fees, and, upon giving
proper instructions to the Custodian, the Portfolio Manager shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to custodial arrangements
or the acts, omissions or other conduct of the Custodian.</p>

<p style="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 13.5pt">5. <u>Allocation of Brokerage.</u>
The Portfolio Manager shall have authority and discretion to select brokers and dealers to execute portfolio transactions initiated by
the Portfolio Manager for the Portfolio Manager Account, and to select the markets on or in which the transaction will be executed.</p>

Portfolio Manager&rsquo;s primary responsibility shall be to seek to obtain best net price and execution for the Fund. However, this
responsibility shall not obligate the Portfolio Manager to solicit competitive bids for each transaction or to seek the lowest
available commission cost to the Fund, so long as the Portfolio Manager reasonably believes that the broker or dealer selected by it
can be expected to obtain a &ldquo;best execution&rdquo; market price on the particular transaction and determines in good faith
that the commission cost is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services (as defined in Section
28(e)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) provided by such broker or dealer to the Portfolio Manager viewed in terms of
either that particular transaction or of the Portfolio Manager&rsquo;s overall responsibilities with respect to its clients,
including the Fund, as to which the Portfolio Manager exercises investment discretion, notwithstanding that the Fund may not be the
direct or exclusive beneficiary of any such services or that another broker may be willing to charge the Fund a lower commission on
the particular transaction.</p>

requirements of paragraph A above, the Fund Manager shall have the right to request that transactions giving rise to brokerage
commissions, in an amount to be agreed upon by the Fund Manager and the Portfolio Manager, shall be executed by brokers and dealers
that provide brokerage or research services to the Fund Manager, or as to which an on-going relationship will be of value to the
Fund in the management of its assets, which services and relationship may, but need not, be of direct benefit to the Portfolio
Manager Account. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Portfolio Manager shall not be responsible under
paragraph A above with respect to transactions executed through any such broker or dealer.</p>

will vote all proxies solicited by or with respect to the issuers of securities in which assets of the Portfolio Manager Account may be
invested from time to time in accordance with such policies as shall be determined by the Fund Manager, and reviewed and approved by the
Board of Directors. Upon the written request of the Fund Manager, the Portfolio Manager will vote all proxies solicited by or with respect
to the issuers of securities in which assets of the Portfolio Manager Account may be invested from time to time in accordance with such
policies as shall be determined by the Fund Manager, and reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors.</p>

The compensation of the Portfolio Manager for its services under this Agreement shall be calculated and paid by the Fund Manager in accordance
with the attached Schedule A. Pursuant to the Fund Management Agreement between the Fund and the Fund Manager, the Fund Manager is solely
responsible for the payment of fees to the Portfolio Manager, and the Portfolio Manager agrees to seek payment of its fees solely from
the Fund Manager.</p>

<p style="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 13.5pt">8. <u>Other Investment Activities
of Portfolio Manager.</u> The Fund acknowledges that the Portfolio Manager or one or more of its affiliates has investment responsibilities,
renders investment advice to and performs other investment advisory services for other individuals or entities (&ldquo;Client Accounts&rdquo;),
and that the Portfolio Manager, its affiliates or any of its or their directors, officers, agents or employees may buy, sell or trade
in any securities for its or their respective accounts (&ldquo;Affiliated Accounts&rdquo;). Subject to the provisions of paragraph 2 hereof,
the Fund agrees that the Portfolio Manager or its affiliates may give advice or exercise investment responsibility and take such other
action with respect to other Client Accounts and Affiliated Accounts which may differ from the advice given or the timing or nature of
action taken with respect to the Portfolio Manager Account, provided that the Portfolio Manager acts in good faith, and provided further,
that it is the Portfolio Manager&rsquo;s policy to allocate, within its reasonable discretion, investment opportunities to the Portfolio
Manager Account over a period of time on a fair and equitable basis relative to the Client Accounts and the Affiliated Accounts, taking
into account the cash position and the investment objectives and policies of the Fund and any specific investment restrictions applicable
thereto. The Fund acknowledges that one or more Client Accounts and Affiliated Accounts may at any time hold, acquire, increase, decrease,
dispose of or otherwise deal with positions in investments in which the Portfolio Manager Account may have an interest from time to time,
whether in transactions which involve the Portfolio Manager Account or otherwise. The Portfolio Manager shall have no obligation to acquire
for the Portfolio Manager Account a position in any investment which any Client Account or Affiliated Account may acquire, and the Fund
shall have no first refusal, co-investment or other rights in respect of any such investment, either for the Portfolio Manager Account
or otherwise.</p>

<p style="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 13.5pt">9. <u>Limitation of Liability.</u>
The Portfolio Manager shall not be liable for any action taken, omitted or suffered to be taken by it in its reasonable judgment, in good
faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement,
or in accordance with (or in the absence of) specific directions or instructions from the Fund, provided, however, that such acts or omissions
shall not have resulted from the Portfolio Manager&rsquo;s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence, a violation of the standard
of care established by and applicable to the Portfolio Manager in its actions under this Agreement or breach of its duty or of its obligations
hereunder (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed to protect the Portfolio Manager from liability in violation of
Section 17(i) of the Act). Except as may otherwise be provided by the Act or any other federal securities law, the Portfolio Manager shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Fund Manager and the Fund, and their officers and employees, consultants, all affiliated persons thereof
(within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3) of the Act) and all controlling persons (as described in Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended) (collectively, the &ldquo;Fund Indemnitees&rdquo;) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or litigation

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In planning and performing our audit of the financial
statements of Liberty All-Star<SUP>&reg;</SUP> Growth Fund, Inc. (the &ldquo;Fund&rdquo;) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024,
in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), we considered the Fund&rsquo;s
internal control over financial reporting, including controls over safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing procedures
for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-CEN, but not for
the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund&rsquo;s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly,
we express no such opinion.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The management of the Fund is responsible for
establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments
by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. A fund&rsquo;s internal control over financial
reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). A fund&rsquo;s internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the fund; (2) provide reasonable assurance that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures
of the fund are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the fund; and (3) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a fund&rsquo;s assets that could
have a material effect on the financial statements.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Because of its inherent limitations, internal
control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">A deficiency in internal control over financial
reporting exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing
their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of
the Fund&rsquo;s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Our consideration of the Fund&rsquo;s internal
control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies
in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the PCAOB. However, we noted no deficiencies in the
Fund&rsquo;s internal control over financial reporting and its operation, including controls over safeguarding securities, that we consider
to be a material weakness as defined above as of December 31, 2024.</P>
