SECURITIES LENDING
AUTHORIZATION AGREEMENT

This Agreement is by and among WILSHIRE VARIABLE INSURANCE TRUST, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (herein referred to as the “Company”), on behalf of its existing and future separate investment portfolios or series identified on Schedule 1 hereto (as may be amended in writing from time to time, herein referred to each as a “Lending Fund”), WILSHIRE ASSOCIATES INCORPORATED, as Adviser to the Lending Funds, and THE NORTHERN TRUST COMPANY, the custodian of each of the Lending Funds (herein referred to as “Agent”), and governs the lending of U.S. and non-U.S. securities (“Securities”) by Agent as agent of any Lending Fund from one or more accounts of such Lending Fund in the custody of Agent. This Agreement includes as attachments Schedule A, the Borrower Schedule attached thereto, Schedule B (Collateral Guidelines), Schedule C (the Fee Schedule), and the current prospectus for the Northern Institutional Funds’ Liquid Assets Portfolio at Annex I, all of which, together with any substitutions therefor, are hereby incorporated in this Agreement. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in section 12 below.

Authorization. The Company hereby appoints Agent for the purpose of lending Securities of each Lending Fund, to act in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and pursuant to the directions of the Company, the Lending Fund and the Adviser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall not loan Securities of a Lending Fund if, as a result of a Loan of such Securities, more than one-third of the Market Value of the total assets of the Lending Fund (determined at the time of making the Loan) would be on loan.

1.1 The Company hereby authorizes and directs Agent to enter into Loans on behalf of each Lending Fund with only such Borrowers (other than Agent or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Agent), with only such types of Collateral, making only such investments of cash Collateral, and only on such other terms and conditions, as are specifically provided for under this Agreement and the Schedules attached hereto (all of which are hereby specifically approved by the Adviser) or on such other terms and conditions as the Company, the Lending Fund or the Adviser may from time to time direct in writing.

1.2 It is understood and agreed that each Lending Fund and its Adviser retain the ultimate authority regarding the lending of Securities of the Lending Fund and that the Agent is subject to the direction of the Lending Funds in carrying out its responsibilities with respect to the lending of Securities in accordance with this Agreement.

1.3 Agent may only lend Securities of a Lending Fund to Borrowers that satisfy the criteria set forth on Schedule A, attached hereto. The approval of such criteria by the Board of Directors of the Company, on behalf of each Lending Fund, shall be sufficiently evidenced by the execution by the Company of such Schedule A.

2.	Agent’s Responsibility as to Loans. Before entering into any Loan with a Borrower, Agent shall be responsible for the following:

2.1 Agent shall enter into a Borrowing Agreement with the Borrower, the terms of which may vary depending upon the country of domicile of the Borrower, the jurisdictions in which the Borrower does business, any separate negotiation between Agent and Borrower and other factors, but shall comply in all material respects with the requirements of this Agreement concerning the Borrowing Agreement. Copies of sample forms of Borrowing Agreements currently offered to potential Borrowers are available upon request.

2.2 Upon receipt of notice from a Borrower of its desire to borrow Securities upon stated terms, Agent shall determine the account or accounts from which to loan Securities by using Agent’s impartial sequential systems that match Loan requests with the accounts of Agent’s various lending customers holding eligible Securities.

2.3 Agent shall obtain from the potential Borrower the most recent audited statement of its financial condition and the most recent unaudited statement of its financial condition, if more recent than the audited statement, and shall make a reasoned determination that the potential Borrower is creditworthy.

2.4 Agent shall require the Borrower to furnish, with respect to each Loan, or agree in the Borrowing Agreement that each Loan shall constitute, a representation that there has been no material adverse change in its financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statement furnished pursuant to the preceding paragraph.

Collateral. In the lending of Borrowed Securities, protection is afforded by the Collateral received from a Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Borrowing Agreement. All Collateral so received, and all investments of cash Collateral, shall be held either in the physical custody of Agent or for the account of Agent by an agent or subcustodian of Agent or a central bank, depository or clearing corporation acting as a depository.

3.1 Collateral shall be held in a separate account for each Lending Fund (each referred to as a “Separate Account”). All Collateral received from Borrowers supporting Loans of Securities of a Lending Fund, and all investments of cash Collateral, shall be credited to and held in the Separate Account. All property of the Separate Account shall be held in the Separate Account for the sole benefit and at the sole risk of the relevant Lending Fund. Cash Collateral shall be invested, and non-cash Collateral shall be accepted, for each Lending Fund in accordance with the guidelines, rules, procedures, and standards set forth in the Collateral Guidelines attached hereto as Schedule B and hereby made a part hereof.

3.2 For purposes of investments of cash Collateral, the designation by the Company of a cash Collateral investment option for a Lending Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall prevail over any contrary provisions of any other instrument between the parties concerning investment of cash of the Lending Fund.

3.3 The risk of any loss of Collateral or investments of cash Collateral (including a loss of income or principal, or loss of market value thereof) shall be allocated as follows:

(i) any loss resulting from the insufficiency of income from the investment of cash Collateral of a Lending Fund to pay Rebate Fees or other expenses properly paid from such income shall be allocated to Agent in the same percentage as Agent’s fee under Schedule C, with the balance of such losses allocated to the Lending Fund;

(ii) any loss of principal or principal value within any Separate Account (a “Separate Account Loss”) shall be allocated solely to the relevant Lending Fund;

(iii) any loss resulting from an insufficiency of Collateral or its proceeds to pay for the cost of purchasing Equivalent Securities or otherwise to make any Lending Fund whole in the event of a default by a Borrower that is not recoverable from the Borrower or within the scope of Agent’s obligations under section 16 shall be borne solely by such Lending Fund; and

(iv) notwithstanding the foregoing. Agent shall be liable for losses resulting from its negligence or intentional misconduct in performing the duties allocated to it under this Agreement with respect to Collateral.

3.4 Each Lending Fund shall pay to Agent, upon Agent’s written demand therefor, such amounts as are determined by Agent to be necessary from time to time to satisfy the Lending Fund’s obligations under this Agreement with respect to insufficiencies of cash Collateral income or Collateral principal. Any such amounts outstanding after their due date shall bear interest until paid at the Federal Funds Rate as published in the Midwest Edition of the Wall Street Journal (or if not there quoted in any publication reasonably selected by Agent).

4.	Collateral Margin.

4.1 The Borrowing Agreement shall provide that at the time a Loan is made there shall be a transfer of Borrowed Securities against a transfer (occurring prior thereto or, in the case of Securities transferred through a depository, central bank or clearing organization, before the close of the same business day in accordance with the rales, customs and practices of that depository, bank or organization) of Collateral having a Market Value equal to such percentage (not less than 100%) of the Market Value of the Borrowed Securities as Agent and the Borrower shall agree in accordance with the applicable Collateral Schedule.

4.2 Each business day the Agent and the Borrower shall determine the Market Value of the Collateral and the Borrowed Securities. If on any business day the Market Value of all the Collateral shall be less than the Required Value (as hereinafter defined), Agent shall demand from the Borrower, subject to a de minimis rule of change in value appropriate to the type of Borrowed Securities, additional Collateral so that the Market Value of the additional Collateral, when added to the Market Value of the Collateral previously delivered to Agent, shall equal the Required Value. If the Borrower fails to deliver such additional Collateral, Agent may terminate the Loan in accordance with paragraph 5.1 hereof.

4.3 If on any business day the Market Value of all the Collateral shall be greater than the Required Value, Agent shall, upon request from the Borrower, subject to a de minimis rule of change in value appropriate to the type of Borrowed Securities, redeliver to Borrower such amount of Collateral selected by Borrower so that the Market Value of all Collateral equals the Required Value.

4.4. Notwithstanding the de minimis rules referred to in this section 4, nothing in this Agreement shall relieve or be construed to relieve the Agent from its responsibility to demand additional Collateral from the Borrower should the Market Value of the Collateral fall below 100% of the Market Value of the Borrowed Securities of any Lending Fund.

5.	Termination of Loans; Remedies upon Default.

5.1 Agent shall retain the right pursuant to the terms of the Borrowing Agreement to terminate a Loan at any time, whereupon the Borrower shall deliver Equivalent Securities to Agent within (a) the customary delivery period for such Securities, (b) five business days or (c) the time negotiated for such delivery by Agent and the Borrower, whichever period is least, and Agent shall concurrently therewith deliver collateral identical to the Collateral to the Borrower. A Borrower may terminate a Loan at any time upon notice to Agent and by delivery to Agent of Equivalent Securities. The Company, on behalf of a Lending Fund, shall have the right at any time to direct Agent to terminate a Loan of the Lending Fund’s Securities, in whole or in part.

5.2 If upon termination of a Loan a Borrower shall fail to deliver Equivalent Securities, Agent shall exercise the remedies available to it under the relevant Borrowing Agreement and applicable law, customs and practices for the benefit of the Lending Funds thereby affected. Agent shall have the right to, and in the event of a Filing with respect to a Borrower shall, purchase Equivalent Securities, apply the Collateral to the payment of the purchase price of the Securities purchased, any other obligations of the Borrower under the Borrowing Agreement and ail reasonable related expenses, and either pay to the Borrower any amounts then remaining, or demand from the Borrower any amounts then due and owing, all in accordance with the requirements of applicable law and the provisions of the relevant Borrowing Agreement, together with interest on such amounts and at such rates as are permitted by the Borrowing Agreement and applicable law. All recoveries for the benefit of a Lending Fund under this paragraph shall be credited to the Lending Fund’s account when received. The Company, on behalf of each Lending Fund, hereby authorizes Agent, as such Lending Fund’s agent and Nominee, to exercise on behalf of such Lending fund all remedies (including rights of set-off) otherwise available to the Lending Fund under all applicable U.S. and non-U.S. laws in order to secure the return of Equivalent Securities (or their value) to the Lending Fund.

6.	Distributions; Voting, etc.

6.1 The Company and each Lending Fund acknowledge that during the term of any Loan the Borrower shall otherwise hold all incidents of ownership with respect to the Borrowed Securities, including but without limitation the rights to vote the Borrowed Securities and to transfer or loan Borrowed Securities to others subject, however, to the Company’s right to terminate any such Loan in accordance with paragraph 5.1 hereof.

6.2 The Borrower shall, in accordance with the terms of the Borrowing Agreement, be required to pay to Agent the equivalent (herein called “Substitute Payments”) of all distributions made by the issuer of the Borrowed Securities during the term of a Loan to which the Lending Fund would have been entitled had the Securities not been loaned, including, but not limited to, cash dividends, interest payments, shares of stock as a result of stock splits and stock dividends and the rights to purchase additional Securities. Agent shall credit to the account of the Lending Fund the net amount of all Substitute Payments of cash on the payable dates thereof, subject to section 9.3 of this Agreement. All other Substitute Payments shall be credited to the Lending Fund when received from the Borrower, except that shares issued in stock splits shall be deemed part of the Loan of the pre- split shares. All Substitute Payments shall be subject to any requirements of applicable taxing authorities concerning withholding of tax on such payments. Agent shall pay to a Borrower the distributions Agent receives on Securities delivered by the Borrower as Collateral.

6.3 The rates of tax withholding or credit used to determine the amount of any Substitute Payment of cash by a Borrower with respect to Borrowed Securities shall be determined and agreed to by Agent at the time a Loan is made and shall not thereafter be subject to retroactive adjustment for any reason. Agent shall have no liability for errors made in determining such amounts, if Agent acted in good faith and without negligence based on all the most current relevant information in the possession of Agent at that time.

Revenues.

7.1 The Net Revenue of a Lending Fund during any period shall consist of (a) in the case of cash Collateral, the aggregate income derived from the investments of cash Collateral during the period, net of (i) any applicable payment or withholding of tax, (ii) aggregate Rebate Fees paid or accrued to the Borrowers pursuant to the Borrowing Agreements and (iii) certain expenses, adjustments and charges as disclosed in the Collateral Guidelines at Schedule B, and (b) in all other cases, the aggregate loan Premiums or Loan Fees paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the Borrowing Agreements; reduced by any applicable payment or withholding of tax.

7.2 The Net Revenue of a Lending Fund shall be credited by Agent monthly to the account of the Lending Fund, provided that Agent may simultaneously deduct from that account, as compensation for Agent’s services under the securities lending program, a fee equal to such amounts as shall be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the parties and set forth in Schedule C attached hereto.

Reports Within approximately two weeks after the end of each month, Agent shall furnish to the Company with respect to each Lending Fund and the Adviser a statement of account for the month listing the Borrowed Securities, the Borrowers to whom they have been lent, the Collateral held by Agent against all Loans of the Borrowed Securities, the Loan revenue received during the period and the fees of the Agent. In addition, the Company shall have the right to request a list of Borrowed Securities and Collateral (and the Market Values thereof) as of any specified date.

9.	Concerning the Agent,

9.1 Agent shall administer the securities lending program in conformity with the applicable laws governing each Loan and all rules, regulations and exemptions from time to time promulgated and issued under the authority of those laws. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require Agent to take any action which in Agent’s reasonable belief could cause Agent or a Lending Fund to violate any applicable law. In the event of a change in the securities lending program required in order to comply with a change in applicable laws, rules, regulations or exemptions, Agent shall notify the Company and such change shall be deemed to be a part of this Agreement.

9.2 Agent shall not be responsible for delays or failures in performance caused by circumstances reasonably beyond Agent’s control, including but not limited to fires, storms, earthquakes and other similar occurrences, power outages, work stoppages, closure or malfunctioning of central banks, securities exchanges, or depositories, defaults by subcustodians chosen by Agent in the exercise of reasonable care, political disturbances, acts of terrorism and breakdowns in governmental functions of all types.

9.3 Agent may at its discretion, but shall not be required to, make loans or advances to a Lending Fund in order to provide temporary liquidity to such Lending Fund as a result of a Collateral default or otherwise. All such loans or advances shall bear interest at the Treasury Rate until paid if permitted under applicable statutes, regulations, exemptions and SEC opinions. Agent may also advance funds to a Lending Fund for the payment of Rebate Fees or other amounts due to a Borrower, or for the payment of Substitute Payments, Net Revenues or any other amounts due from the Borrower to the Lending Fund hereunder. Any advance to a Lending Fund of amounts due from a Borrower shall be conditional upon receipt by Agent of final payment from the Borrower and may be reversed to the extent final payment is not received. Any interest received by the Agent under this paragraph shall be in addition to Agent’s other compensation under this Agreement.

9.4 In performing its duties hereunder, Agent shall be held to the standard of care exercised by banks generally in performing similar duties and shall be responsible only for its negligence or intentional misconduct. In no event shall Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential damages of any kind, even though Agent may have been previously informed of the possibility that such damages may occur.

17.2 With respect to any Loan, each reference in this Agreement to “Company” shall be deemed a reference solely to a particular Lending Fund to which the Loan relates. In no circumstances shall the rights, obligations or remedies with respect to a particular Lending Fund constitute a right, obligation or remedy applicable to any other Lending Fund. Specifically, and without otherwise limiting the scope of this paragraph, Agent shall have no right to set off claims or amounts payable related to one Lending Fund by applying property of any other Lending Fund.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties, by their authorized officers, have executed this Agreement, dated and effective as of January 23, 2012.

SCHEDULE A
TO SECURITIES LENDING AUTHORIZATION AGREEMENT
(“Agreement”)

ELIGIBILITY OF BORROWERS AND PARENT COMPANIES

Any Borrower (or parent company thereof) to whom Agent may currently lend Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall (a) have a short-term rating of A1 or higher by Standard & Poors and P1 or higher by Moody’s; if both Standard & Poors and Moody’s have rated such Borrower, both short-term ratings must meet the qualifications herein, and (b) with respect to each Lending Fund, at no time borrow greater than 10% of the aggregate value of such Lending Fund. The Company, on behalf of each Lending Fund, hereby authorizes and directs Agent to lend Securities to any entity (including any U.S. subsidiary or affiliate of any entity) that satisfies both the foregoing criteria and any criteria generally applied by Agent or its affiliates in determining the Borrowers eligible for participation in Agent’s securities lending program at the time of such loan. The lending of Securities to a parent company does not necessarily imply that there is a guarantee in favor of the Agent by the parent of the Securities borrowing obligations of a subsidiary or affiliate. All Borrowers shall be selected based on procedures as set forth in the Agreement, to which this Schedule forms a part. Exhibit A-1 attached hereto sets forth each of the Borrowers satisfying the criteria set forth in this Schedule A as of the date of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, on behalf of each Lending Fund, hereby directs that Agent not lend Securities from the accounts listed below to the following entities, or their respective subsidiaries or affiliates:

SCHEDULE B
TO SECURITIES LENDING AUTHORIZATION AGREEMENT

Guidelines for Separate Account

Collateralization Levels

Initial Collateral levels shall not be less than 102% of the Market Value of the Borrowed Securities (105% if the Collateral and the Borrowed Securities are denominated in different currencies). Marking to market is performed every business day (subject to de minimis rules of change in Market Value) for each Separate Account, and each Borrower is required to deliver additional Collateral when necessary so that the total Collateral held in the Separate Account for all loans of the Lending Fund to the Borrower will be not less than 100% of the Market Value of all the Borrowed Securities loaned to the Borrower by such Lending Fund.

Collateral Guidelines

Listed below are the cash and non-cash Collateral guidelines specifying eligible Collateral, eligible investments of non-cash Collateral, credit quality standards, and diversification requirements. All requirements listed in these guidelines are effective at the time of purchase of any security or instrument as a cash Collateral investment and at the time of receipt of any non-cash Collateral. Capitalized terms used in this Schedule have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

Acceptable Collateral

Acceptable Collateral consists of (1) cash in U.S. dollars, (2) obligations issued or guaranteed by the United States Treasury or by any agency or instrumentality of the United States Government, and (3) irrevocable stand-by letters of credit issued by banks domiciled or doing business within the United States that are approved by Agent’s Trust Credit Committee at the time of issuance. Collateral, including cash Collateral investments, must be held in a segregated account for each Lending Fund, which is referred to in the Agreement and this Schedule as a “Separate Account.”

Eligible Investments of Cash Collateral

Cash Collateral shall be invested in shares of the Liquid Assets Portfolio. A copy of the current prospectus for the Liquid Assets Portfolio is attached to the Agreement as Annex II.

Diversification of Non-Cash Collateral

•	Obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, or its agencies and instrumentalities, may be accepted without limit.

•	Agent shall establish from time to time a maximum percentage of the Separate Account which may be exposed to the risks of any one foreign country, and individual country limits.
