Base Wealth Management LLC

Item 5 Fees and Compensation

Asset Management Fees
Pursuant to an Investment Advisory contract signed by each client, the client will pay Base Wealth an annual
management fee, calculated as a percentage of the market value of the portfolio assets in the account. Fees
are payable quarterly, either in advance or in arrears, based on the market value of the account on the last
business day of the quarter.
The management fee may be adjusted to reflect significant contributions or withdrawals made to the account
during the quarter. For new accounts, fees will be prorated from the account’s inception through the end of
the first quarter. Some third-party asset managers may also bill fees directly to the client on behalf of Base
Wealth.
Management fees range up to 1.50% per annum depending on the type and complexity of the investment
management strategy employed as well as the size of the account or overall client relationship.
Management fees may be reduced or waived for directors, officers, and employees of Base Wealth at the
discretion of management. These fees may be negotiated by Base Wealth at its sole discretion. The client
will give written authorization permitting the Advisor to be paid directly from their account held by the
custodian, and the custodian will send a statement at least quarterly to the client. Where it is not practical
to deduct fees directly from client accounts, client will be sent an invoice at the end of each quarter. The
invoice is payable upon receipt.

Hourly Fee
Some clients will contract to have investment advisory advice and/or financial planning advice provided
based on an hourly fee rather than based on the assets under management. The Advisor’s hourly fee will
be billed at a rate of $500 per hour, but may be negotiated in advance. The Advisor’s hourly fees will be
negotiated and agreed upon by the parties in advance. Hourly fee-based clients are billed on a monthly
basis as the work is performed.

Fixed Fees
Some clients may wish to be charged a fixed fee for comprehensive financial planning services or financial
consulting. The fee will range up to $20,000 depending on the complexity and scope of the financial
planning or financial consulting services as defined in the financial planning and financial consulting
agreement signed by the client. Fixed fees may be negotiated at the discretion of the Advisor. Fixed fee-
based clients are billed upon engagement acceptance. All financial planning and financial consulting
services will be completed and delivered in less than six months from the commencement of the
engagement.

For each of the Advisor's services described above, the Client may terminate these services within five
business days of the effective date of an Agreement signed with the Advisor without penalty or payment
of the Advisor's fee.

All fees paid to Base Wealth for investment advisory services are separate and distinct from the expenses
charged by mutual funds to their shareholders and the product sponsor in the case of variable insurance
products. These fees and expenses are described in each fund’s or variable product’s prospectus. These fees
will generally include a management fee and other fund expenses. Client is responsible for all
custodial and securities execution fees charged by the custodian and executing broker-dealer. The
Advisor’s fee is separate and distinct from the custodian and execution fees.

At no time will Base Wealth accept or maintain custody of a client’s funds or securities except for
authorized fee deduction.

Base Wealth’s financial planning fee is payable in advance. Upon termination, any fees paid in advance
will be prorated by using our hourly rate for services provided to the date of termination and any unearned
fees will be refunded to client. In certain circumstances, the firm may permit payment of financial planning
fees in installments, as outlined in the financial planning agreement.
Where acting in the capacity of an insurance agent, investment advisor representatives (IARs) of Base
Wealth may as agent effect insurance transactions for typical and customary compensation.
This practice presents a conflict of interest by creating an incentive to recommend investment products based
on the compensation received, rather than on a client’s needs. Clients of Base Wealth are not required
to utilize the IARs in their capacity as insurance agents for the purchase of investment products. Base Wealth
has established a Code of Ethics to address conflicts of interest. See the response to Item 11 below for
more information on the Code of Ethics.

A client may be able to invest in products recommended by the firm directly, without the services of Base
Wealth. In that case, the client would not receive the services provided by Base Wealth which are
designed, among other things, to assist the client in determining which products or services are most
appropriate to each client’s financial condition and objectives.

Commissions from the sale of investment products do not represent 50% or more of the revenues
received by Base Wealth. Base Wealth does not charge management fees on client assets invested in
commission-based insurance products.
