Aspire Capital Advisors LLC

Item 5 – Fees and Compensation

The following paragraphs detail the fee structure and compensation methodology for services provided by the
Adviser. Each Client engaging the Adviser for services described herein shall be required to enter into one or
more written agreements with the Adviser.

A. Fees for Advisory Services
Investment Management Services
Investment advisory fees are paid quarterly, in advance of each calendar quarter, pursuant to the terms of the
investment advisory agreement. Investment advisory fees are based on the market value of assets under
management at the end of the prior calendar quarter. Investment advisory fees will be calculated as a flat fee or
based on a tiered breakpoint schedule, pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory agreement. These fees
range up to 1.00%.

                                               Aspire Capital Advisors LLC
                                    1815 North 45th Street; Suite 105; Seattle, WA 98103
                                  Phone and Fax: (206) 939-5615 | http://investwithaspire.com

The investment advisory fee in the first quarter of service is prorated from the inception date of the account[s] to the
end of the first quarter. Fees may be negotiable at the sole discretion of the Adviser. The Client’s fees will take into
consideration the aggregate assets under management with the Adviser. All securities held in accounts managed
by Aspire Capital will be independently valued by the Custodian. Aspire Capital will conduct periodic reviews of the
Custodian’s valuations to ensure accurate billing.

The Adviser’s fee is exclusive of, and in addition to any applicable securities transaction and custody fees, and
other related costs and expenses described in Item 5.C below, which may be incurred by the Client. However, the
Adviser shall not receive any portion of these commissions, fees, and costs.

Use of Independent Managers
As noted in Item 4, the Advisor will implement all or a portion of a Client’s investment portfolio utilizing one or more
Independent Managers. To eliminate any conflict of interest, the Advisor does not earn any compensation from an
Independent Manager. The Advisor will only earn its investment advisory fee as described above. Independent
Managers typically do not offer any fee discounts but may have a breakpoint schedule which will reduce the fee
with an increased level of assets placed under management with an Independent Manager. The terms of such fee
arrangements are included in the Independent Manager’s disclosure brochure and applicable contract[s] with the
Independent Manager. The total blended fee, including the Advisor’s fee and the Independent Manager’s fee, will
not exceed 1.00% annually.

Financial Planning Services
Aspire Capital offers financial planning services either on an hourly basis or a fixed engagement fee. Hourly
engagements are billed at a rate of up to $250 per hour. Fixed engagement fees will be based on the expected
hours to complete the engagement at the hourly rate and is disclosed in the Financial Planning Agreement. Fees
may be negotiable based on the nature and complexity of the services to be provided and the overall relationship
with the Adviser. An estimate for total hours and/or total costs will be provided to the Client prior to engaging for
these services.

Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Fees for retirement plan advisory services are charged a flat fee or an annual asset-based fee of up to 1.00% of
Plan assets, billed quarterly, in advance of each calendar quarter, pursuant to the terms of the agreement. Fees
may be negotiable depending on the size and complexity of the Plan.

B. Fee Billing
Investment Management Services
Investment advisory fees are calculated by the Adviser or its delegate and deducted from the Client’s account[s] at
the Custodian. The Adviser shall send an invoice to the Custodian indicating the amount of the fees to be deducted
from the Client’s account[s] at the beginning of the respective quarter. The amount due is calculated by applying the
quarterly rate (annual rate divided by 4) to the total assets under management with Aspire Capital at the end the
prior quarter. Clients will be provided with a statement, at least quarterly, from the Custodian reflecting deduction of
the investment advisory fee. The invoice will be sent concurrently with such fee deduction. The Client is urged to
also verify the accuracy of these fees by comparing to the Custodian’s brokerage statement as the Custodian does
not assume this responsibility on the Client’s behalf. Clients provide written authorization permitting advisory fees to
be deducted by Aspire Capital directly from their account[s] held by the Custodian as part of the investment
advisory agreement and separate account forms provided by the Custodian.

Use of Independent Managers
For Client accounts implemented through an Independent Manager, the Client’s overall fees may include Aspire
Capital’s investment advisory fee (as noted above) plus investment management fees and/or platform fees charged
by the Independent Manager[s], as applicable. In certain instances, the Independent Manager or the Advisor may
assume responsibility for calculating the Client’s fees and deduct all fees from the Client’s account[s].

financial planning agreement. The balance shall be invoiced upon completion of the agreed upon deliverable[s].

Retirement Plan Advisory Services
Fees may be directly invoiced to the Plan Sponsor or deducted from the assets of the Plan, depending on the terms
