AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

Exhibit 4

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the “Plan”) is adopted on January 22, 2018, by Pacific Select Fund (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust, with its principal place of business at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, on behalf of the Main Street Core Portfolio (the “Surviving Fund”), a separate series of the Trust, and the Long/Short Large-Cap Portfolio (the “Acquired Fund”), another separate series of the Trust.

Under the reorganization (the “Reorganization”), the Acquired Fund will transfer all of its assets to the Surviving Fund, in exchange solely for Class I Shares of the Surviving Fund (the “Surviving Fund Shares”), the assumption by the Surviving Fund of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund, and the distribution of the Surviving Fund Shares to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund in complete Reorganization of the Acquired Fund as provided herein, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Plan.

WHEREAS, the Acquired Fund and Surviving Fund are each a series of the Trust, an open-end, registered investment company of the management type, and the Acquired Fund owns securities which generally are assets of the character in which the Surviving Fund is permitted to invest; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) has determined that the exchange of all of the assets of the Acquired Fund for Surviving Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Surviving Fund is in the best interests of the Surviving Fund and its shareholders and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Surviving Fund would not be diluted as a result of this transaction; and

WHEREAS, the Board has also determined, with respect to the Acquired Fund, that the exchange of all of the assets of the Acquired Fund for Surviving Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Surviving Fund is in the best interests of the Acquired Fund and its shareholders and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Acquired Fund would not be diluted as a result of this transaction.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Trust, on behalf of the Surviving Fund and the Acquired Fund separately, hereby approves the Plan on the following terms and conditions:

Transfer of Assets of the Acquired Fund to the Surviving Fund in Exchange for the Surviving Fund Shares, the Assumption of All Acquired Fund Liabilities and the Reorganization of the Acquired Fund.

1.1 Subject to the requisite approval of the Acquired Fund shareholders and the other terms and conditions herein set forth and on the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, the Acquired Fund agrees to transfer all of the Acquired Fund’s assets, as set forth in paragraph 1.2, to the Surviving Fund, and the Surviving Fund agrees in exchange therefore: (i) to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of full and fractional Surviving Fund Shares determined by dividing the value of the Acquired Fund’s net assets, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of one Surviving Fund Share, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2; and (ii) to assume all liabilities of the Acquired Fund. Such transactions shall take place at the closing provided for in paragraph 3.1 (the “Closing”).

1.2 The assets of the Acquired Fund to be acquired by the Surviving Fund shall consist of all assets and property, including, without limitation, all cash, securities, commodities and futures interests and dividends or interests receivable that are owned by the Acquired Fund and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Acquired Fund on the closing date provided for in paragraph 3.1 (the “Closing Date”). Whether or not shown as an asset on the books of the Acquired Fund on the Closing Date, assets consisting of any asserted or unasserted potential legal claims that may arise from the Acquired Fund as of the Closing Date or were constituted prior to the Closing Date, shall be considered part of the assets of the Acquired Fund.

1.3 The Acquired Fund will endeavor to discharge all of its known liabilities and obligations prior to the Closing Date. The Surviving Fund shall also assume all of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund, whether accrued or contingent, known or unknown, existing at the Valuation Date. Expenses, whether known or unknown as of the Valuation Date, associated with any asserted or unasserted potential legal claims that are assets of the Acquired Fund as set forth in paragraph 1.2, shall be considered liabilities of the Acquired Fund.

1.4 Immediately after the transfer of assets provided for in paragraph 1.1, the Acquired Fund will distribute to the Acquired Fund’s shareholders of record, determined as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Acquired Fund Shareholders”), on a pro rata basis within Class I, the Surviving Fund Shares received by the Acquired Fund pursuant to paragraph 1.1, and will completely liquidate and terminate. Such distribution and Reorganization will be accomplished by the transfer of the Surviving Fund Shares then credited to the account of the Acquired Fund on the books of the Surviving Fund to open accounts on the share records of the Surviving Fund in the names of the Acquired Fund Shareholders. The aggregate net asset value of Surviving Fund Shares to be so credited to Acquired Fund Shareholders shall be equal to the aggregate net asset value of the Acquired Fund shares owned by such shareholders on the Closing Date. All issued and outstanding shares of the Acquired Fund will simultaneously be canceled on the books of the Acquired Fund, although share certificates representing interests in shares of the Acquired Fund will then represent a number of Surviving Fund Shares, as determined in accordance with Section 2.3. The Surviving Fund shall not issue certificates representing the Surviving Fund Shares in connection with such exchange.

1.5 Ownership of Surviving Fund Shares will be shown on the books of the Fund’s transfer agent. Shares of the Surviving Fund will be issued in the manner described in the Fund’s then-current prospectus and statement of additional information.

1.6 Any reporting responsibility of the Acquired Fund including, but not limited to, the responsibility for filing of regulatory reports, tax returns, or other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), any state securities commission, and any federal, state or local tax authorities or any other relevant regulatory authority, is and shall remain the responsibility of the Acquired Fund.

Valuation

2.1 The value of the Acquired Fund’s assets to be acquired by the Surviving Fund hereunder shall be the value of such assets computed at or about 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Closing Date (such time and date being hereinafter called the “Valuation Date”), using the valuation procedures set forth in the Acquired Fund’s then-current prospectus or statement of additional information and as established by the Board.

2.2 The net asset value of the Surviving Fund Share shall be the net asset value per share computed at or about 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and after the declaration of any dividends on the Valuation Date, using the valuation procedures set forth in the Surviving Fund’s then-current prospectus or statement of additional information with respect to the Surviving Fund, and as established by the Board.

2.3 The number of Surviving Fund Shares to be issued (including fractional shares, if any) in exchange for the Acquired Fund’s assets shall be determined by dividing the value of the net assets of the Acquired Fund, determined using the same valuation procedures referred to in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of a Surviving Fund Share, determined in accordance with paragraph 2.2.

All computations of value shall be made by the Acquired Fund’s designated recordkeeping agent.

Closing and Closing Date

3.1 The Closing Date shall be June 28, 2018, or such other date as the parties may agree to in writing. All acts taking place at the Closing shall be deemed to take place simultaneously as of the close of business on the Closing Date, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. The close of business on the Closing Date shall be at or about 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time. The Closing shall be held at the offices of the Trust or at such other time and/or place as the parties may agree.

3.2 The Trust shall direct State Street Bank and Trust Company, as custodian for the Trust (the “Custodian”), to deliver, at the Closing, confirmation by an authorized officer that (i) the Acquired Fund’s portfolio securities, cash, and any other assets (the “Assets”) were delivered in proper form to the Surviving Fund on the Closing Date, and (ii) all necessary taxes in connection with the delivery of the Assets have been paid or provision for payment has been made. The Acquired Fund’s portfolio securities shall be transferred and delivered by the Acquired Fund as of the Closing Date for the account of the Surviving Fund duly endorsed in proper form for transfer in such condition as to constitute good delivery thereof. The Custodian shall deliver as of the Closing Date by book entry, in accordance with the customary practices of such depositories and the Custodian, the Acquired Fund’s portfolio securities and instruments deposited with a securities depository, as defined in Rule 17f-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

3.3 In the event that on the Valuation Date (a) the New York Stock Exchange or another primary trading market for portfolio securities of the Surviving Fund or the Acquired Fund shall be closed to trading or trading thereupon shall be restricted, or (b) trading or the reporting of trading on such Exchange or elsewhere shall be disrupted so that, in the judgment of the Board, accurate appraisal of the value of the net assets of the Surviving Fund or the Acquired Fund is impracticable, the Closing Date shall be postponed until the first business day after the day when trading shall have been fully resumed and reporting shall have been restored or on such other day as the parties may agree.

Brokerage fees and other transaction costs associated with the purchase and sale of holdings by and for the Acquired Fund, either prior to or after the Reorganization, in connection with the restructuring of the Acquired Fund in anticipation of or in connection with the Reorganization or otherwise, are not considered expenses of the Reorganization. Brokerage fees and certain transaction costs associated with the purchase and sale of securities, are part of the cost of such securities (and are not Reorganization expenses). The principal solicitation will be by mail, but voting instructions also may be solicited by telephone, Internet or in person. AST has been retained to assist with voting instruction solicitation activities (including assembly and mailing of materials to owners of Variable Contracts).
