AMENDED INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT
Certain identified information has been excluded from this exhibit because it is both not material and the type that the Registrant treats as private or confidential.
This Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement (“Agreement”) is made as of the 8th day of January, 2021 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Wilshire Advisors, LLC (formerly “Wilshire Associates Incorporated”), a California limited liability company (“Adviser”), and ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Company, L.P., a registered investment adviser (“Sub-Adviser”).
Whereas Adviser is the investment adviser of the Wilshire Mutual Funds, Inc. (the “Fund”), an open-end diversified, management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), currently consisting of seven separate series or portfolios (collectively, the “Fund Portfolios”) including the Large Company Growth Portfolio, the Large Company Value Portfolio, the Small Company Growth Portfolio, the Small Company Value Portfolio, the Wilshire 5000 Index Fund, the Wilshire International Equity Fund, and the Wilshire Income Opportunities Fund;
Whereas Adviser desires to retain Sub-Adviser to furnish investment advisory services for the Fund Portfolio(s) as described in Exhibit 1 – Fund Portfolio Listing, as may be amended from time to time, and Sub-Adviser wishes to provide such services, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein;
Now Therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties agree as follows:
Appointment. Adviser hereby appoints Sub-Adviser to provide certain sub-investment advisory services to each Fund Portfolio described in Exhibit 1 for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement. Sub-Adviser hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to furnish the services set forth for the compensation herein provided.
Sub-Adviser Services. Subject always to the supervision of the Fund’s Board of Directors and Adviser, Sub-Adviser will furnish an investment program in respect of, and shall have full authority and complete discretion to make investment decisions for, such portion of the assets of each Fund Portfolio as Adviser shall from time to time designate (each a “Portfolio Segment”) and place all orders for the purchase and sale of securities on behalf of each Portfolio Segment. In the performance of its duties, Sub-Adviser will satisfy its fiduciary duties to the Fund and each Fund Portfolio and will monitor a Portfolio Segment’s investments, and will comply with the provisions of the Fund’s Articles of Incorporation and By-laws, as amended from time to time, and the stated investment objectives, policies and restrictions of each Fund Portfolio as set forth in the prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for each Fund Portfolio, as amended from time to time, as well as any other objectives, policies or limitations as may be provided by Adviser to Sub-Adviser in writing from time to time.
Sub-Adviser is hereby appointed as the Fund’s attorney-in-fact to execute all documentation to facilitate investments for the Portfolio Segment, including without limitation, broker dealer agreements, counterparty agreements, and futures commission agreements and any other documentation deemed necessary to effect the investments to the extent permitted by this Agreement and any investment guidelines (“Trading Agreements”). Sub-Adviser is authorized
to execute amendments to the Trading Agreements, including without limitation “protocols” or similar agreements entered into to reflect the adoption of industry-wide standard terms and terms deemed applicable for meeting any regulatory compliance requirements.
Under no circumstances shall Sub-Adviser, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by each Fund, have or maintain, within the meaning of Rule 206(4)-2 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, custody and/or physical control of the assets in the Portfolio Segments. Sub-Adviser shall not be deemed to have or maintain custody and/or physical control of assets in the Portfolio Segments by virtue of Sub-Adviser’s authority to direct the custodian to make payments and deliveries of assets in the Portfolio Segments or accept payments and deliveries of cash and assets of third parties for the Fund in connection with investments and transactions effected by the Sub-Adviser for the Fund. Such payments and deliveries may include transfers and/or deliveries of assets of the Portfolio Segments as well as receipt of third party assets as collateral or security in connection investments or transactions effected by the Sub-Adviser for the Fund and deemed appropriate or necessary pursuant to the Sub-Adviser’s duties under this Agreement.
Sub-Adviser will provide reports at least quarterly to the Board of Directors and to Adviser. Sub- Adviser will make its officers and employees available to Adviser and the Board of Directors from time to time at reasonable times to review investment policies of each Fund Portfolio with respect to each Portfolio Segment and to consult with Adviser regarding the investment affairs of each Portfolio Segment.
Sub-Adviser agrees that it:
will use the same skill and care in providing such services as it uses in providing services to fiduciary accounts for which it has investment responsibilities;
will conform with all applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission in all material respects and in addition will conduct its activities under this Agreement in accordance with any applicable laws and regulations of any governmental authority pertaining to its investment advisory activities, including all portfolio diversification requirements necessary for each Portfolio Segment to comply with subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code as if each were a regulated investment company thereunder;
to the extent authorized by Adviser in writing, and to the extent permitted by law, will direct “step out” transactions for up to 25% of each Portfolio Segment’s brokerage commissions, whereby Sub-Adviser instructs the executing broker to “step out” the Fund’s portion of the blocked order to brokers or dealers designated by management of the Fund to Adviser, which brokers or dealers will clear, settle and confirm the transaction and charge the Fund the commission rate that it has negotiated with such broker or dealer for the purpose of providing direct benefits to the Fund, provided that Sub-Adviser determines that such transactions are consistent with its duty to seek best execution. Sub-Adviser shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain best execution in view of all appropriate factors (as further discussed in Section 2(d), below), and is hereby authorized as the agent of the Fund to give instructions to the Fund’s custodian as to deliveries of securities or other investments and payments of cash of each
Portfolio Segment to such brokers or dealers for the account of the relevant Fund Portfolio. Adviser and the Fund understand that the brokerage commissions or transaction costs in such transactions may be higher than those which the Sub-Adviser could obtain from another broker or dealer, in order to obtain such benefits for the Fund;
is authorized to and will select all other brokers or dealers that will execute the purchases and sales of portfolio securities for each Portfolio Segment and is hereby authorized as the agent of the Fund to give instructions to the Fund’s custodian as to deliveries of securities or other investments and payments of cash of each Portfolio Segment for the account of each Fund Portfolio. In making such selection, Sub-Adviser is directed to use its best efforts to seek to obtain best execution, which includes most favorable net results and execution of a Portfolio Segment’s orders, taking into account all appropriate factors, including price, dealer spread or commission, size and difficulty of the transaction and research or other services provided. With respect to transactions under sub-paragraph (c) or this sub-paragraph (d), it is understood that Sub-Adviser will not be deemed to have acted unlawfully, or to have breached a fiduciary duty to the Fund or in respect of any Fund Portfolio, or be in breach of any obligation owing to the Fund or in respect of any Fund Portfolio under this Agreement, or otherwise, solely by reason of its having caused a Fund Portfolio to pay a member of a securities exchange, a broker or a dealer a commission for effecting a securities transaction of a Fund Portfolio in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have charged if Sub-Adviser determined in good faith that the commission paid was reasonable in relation to the brokerage and research services provided by such member, broker, or dealer, viewed in terms of that particular transaction or Sub-Adviser’s overall responsibilities with respect to its accounts, including the Fund, as to which it exercises investment discretion. The Adviser may, from time to time, engage other sub-advisers to advise portions of a Fund Portfolio other than the Portfolio Segment. The Sub-Adviser agrees that it will not consult with any other sub-adviser engaged by the Adviser with respect to transactions in securities or other assets concerning a Fund Portfolio, except to the extent permitted by certain exemptive rules under the 1940 Act that permit certain transactions with a sub-adviser or its affiliates.
is authorized to consider for investment by each Portfolio Segment securities that may also be appropriate for other funds and/or clients served by Sub-Adviser. To assure fair treatment of each Portfolio Segment and all other clients of Sub-Adviser in situations in which two or more clients’ accounts participate simultaneously in a buy or sell program involving the same security, such transactions will be allocated among each Portfolio Segment and other clients in a manner deemed equitable by Sub-Adviser. Sub-Adviser is authorized to aggregate purchase and sale orders for securities held (or to be held) in each Portfolio Segment with similar orders being made on the same day for other client accounts or portfolios managed by Sub-Adviser, in accordance with the Sub-Adviser’s Trade Aggregation and Allocation Policies and Procedures in effect as of the date of the Effective Date, attached as Exhibit 5 hereto; provided that Sub-Adviser shall give Adviser at least sixty days advanced written notice if such policies and procedures are changed such that they no longer state that the actual prices applicable to the aggregated transaction will be averaged and each Portfolio Segment and each other account or portfolio participating in the aggregated transaction will be treated as having purchased or
sold its portion of the securities at such average price, and all transaction costs incurred in effecting the aggregated transaction will be shared on a pro-rata basis among the accounts or portfolios (including each Portfolio Segment) participating in the transaction. Adviser and the Fund understand that Sub-Adviser may not be able to aggregate transactions through brokers or dealers designated by Adviser with transactions through brokers or dealers selected by Sub-Adviser, in which event the prices paid or received by each Portfolio Segment may be higher or lower than those paid or received by other accounts or portfolios of Sub-Adviser;
will report regularly to Adviser and to the Board of Directors and will make appropriate persons available for the purpose of reviewing with representatives of Adviser and the Board of Directors on a regular basis at reasonable times the management of each Portfolio Segment, including without limitation, review of the general investment strategies of each Portfolio Segment, the performance of each Portfolio Segment in relation to standard industry indices, interest rate considerations and general conditions affecting the marketplace, and will provide various other reports from time to time as reasonably requested by Adviser;
will prepare such books and records with respect to each Portfolio Segment’s securities transactions as requested by Adviser and will furnish Adviser and the Fund’s Board of Directors such periodic and special reports as the Board or Adviser may reasonably request;
will vote all proxies with respect to securities in each Portfolio Segment;
shall have the authority, at its discretion, to file proof of claim forms in connection with any litigation or other proceeding, to execute consents and to exercise or sell stock subscription and conversion rights and to join in or oppose (jointly or with others) reorganizations, recapitalizations and liquidations based upon the Sub-Adviser’s records regarding any security held in the Portfolio Segment unless otherwise limited herein. Sub-Adviser is hereby appointed as the Fund’s attorney-in-fact to execute all documentation to facilitate such litigation or other proceeding, reorganization, recapitalization or liquidation, unless the Adviser otherwise specifies in writing. In determining whether to take the actions described in this paragraph 2(i), Sub-Adviser will use reasonable discretion; and
will act upon reasonable instructions from Adviser which, in the reasonable determination of Sub-Adviser, are not inconsistent with Sub-Adviser’s fiduciary duties under this Agreement.
Expenses. During the term of this Agreement, Sub-Adviser will provide the office space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required to perform its activities under this Agreement, and will pay all customary management expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this Agreement, which shall not include the cost of securities (including brokerage commissions, if any) purchased for each Portfolio Segment. Sub-Adviser agrees to bear any Portfolio expenses caused by future changes at Sub-Adviser, such expenses including but not limited to preparing, printing, and mailing to Portfolio shareholders of information statements or
stickers to or complete prospectuses or statements of additional information. Sub-Adviser also agrees to bear any costs and expenses incurred by Adviser in connection with third party document requests or subpoenas for production of information relating to the services provided by Sub-Adviser hereunder, provided that, for greater certainty, this sentence shall not apply to any document requests or subpoenas for the production of information from the Fund.
Compensation. For the services provided and the expenses assumed under this Agreement, Adviser will pay Sub-Adviser, and Sub-Adviser agrees to accept as full compensation therefore, a sub-advisory fee computed and paid as set forth in Exhibit 2 - Fee Schedule.
Other Services. Sub-Adviser will for all purposes herein be deemed to be an independent contractor and will, unless otherwise expressly provided or authorized, have no authority to act for or represent Adviser, the Fund or a Fund Portfolio or otherwise be deemed an agent of Adviser, the Fund or a Fund Portfolio. Adviser understands and has advised the Fund’s Board of Directors that Sub-Adviser may act as an investment adviser or sub-investment adviser to other investment companies and other advisory clients. Sub-Adviser understands that during the term of this Agreement Adviser may retain one or more other sub-advisers with respect to any portion of the assets of a Fund Portfolio other than each Portfolio Segment.
