EXPENSE LIMITATION AGREEMENT

EXPENSE LIMITATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), effective as of January 1, 2019, by and between Wilshire Associates Incorporated, a California corporation (the “Adviser”) and Wilshire Mutual Funds, Inc. (the “Company”), on behalf of the Large Company Growth Portfolio (the “Fund”).

WHEREAS, the Company is a Maryland Corporation, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management company of the series type, and the Fund is a series of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Company and the Adviser have entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement dated April 1, 2002 (“Advisory Agreement”), pursuant to which the Adviser provides investment management services to the Fund for compensation based on the value of the average daily net assets of the Fund; and

WHEREAS, the Company and the Adviser have determined that it is appropriate and in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders to maintain the expenses of the Fund at a level below the level to which the Fund may otherwise be subject;

NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. EXPENSE LIMITATION.

1.1 Applicable Expense Limit. To the extent that the ordinary operating expenses incurred by the Fund in any fiscal year, including but not limited to investment advisory fees of the Adviser, but excluding taxes, brokerage expenses, dividend expenses on short securities and extraordinary expenses (“Fund Operating Expenses”), exceed the Operating Expense Limit, as defined in Section 1.2 below, such excess amount (the “Excess Amount”) shall be the liability of the Adviser to the extent set forth in this Agreement.

1.2 Operating Expense Limit. The Operating Expense Limit with respect to the Fund shall be 1.30% and 1.00% (annualized) of the average daily net assets of the Fund for its Investment Class and Institutional Class shares, respectively.

1.3 Duration of Operating Expense Limit. The Operating Expense Limit with respect to the Fund shall remain in effect during the term of this Agreement.

1.4 Method of Computation. To determine the Adviser’s obligation with respect to the Excess Amount, each day the Fund Operating Expenses for the Fund shall be annualized. If the annualized Fund Operating Expenses for any day of the Fund exceed the Operating Expense Limit of the Fund, the Advisor shall waive or reduce its investment advisory fee or absorb the other Fund expenses in an amount sufficient to pay that day’s Excess Amount. The Company may offset amounts owed to the Fund pursuant to this Agreement against the advisory fee payable to the Adviser.

2. REIMBURSEMENT OF FEE WAIVERS AND EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENTS.

If on any day during which the Advisory Agreement is in effect, the estimated annualized Fund Operating Expenses of the Fund for that day are less than the Operating Expense Limit, the Adviser shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Fund of the investment advisory fees waived or reduced, and any other expense reimbursements or similar payments remitted by the Adviser to the Fund pursuant to Section 1 hereof (the “Reimbursement Amount”) within three years from the date in which the Adviser waived or reduced investment advisory fees or reimbursed expenses, to the extent that the Fund’s annualized Operating Expenses plus the amount so reimbursed equals, for such day, the Operating Expense Limit, provided that such amount paid to the Adviser will in no event exceed the total Reimbursement Amount and will not include any amounts previously reimbursed.

3. TERM AND TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.

This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of termination of the Advisory Agreement or on April 30, 2020. The obligation of the Adviser under Section 1 of this Agreement and of the Company under Section 2 of this Agreement shall survive the termination of the Agreement solely as to expenses and obligations incurred prior to the date of such termination.
