Item 5: Fees and Compensation
A. Fee Schedule
Asset-Based Fees for Portfolio Management
Wrap Fee Portfolio Management
Total Assets Under Management Maximum -Total Fee
$0 - $1,000,000 1.80%
$1,000,001 - $2,000,000 1.45%
$2,000,001 – And Up Negotiable

$0 - $1,000,000 1.61%
$1,000,001 - $2,000,000 1.31%
$2,000,001 – And Up Negotiable
Beacon FA bills based on the ending quarterly account balance preceding the billing
period. Beacon FA may also utilize third-party investment advisers/turn-key asset
management programs for certain clients, and these fees are charged to the client in
addition to the fee schedule set forth above.
These fees are generally negotiable and the final fee schedule is attached as Exhibit II of
the client contract. Clients may terminate the agreement without penalty for a full refund
of Beacon FA's fees within five business days of signing the client contract. Thereafter,
clients may terminate the client contract generally with 30 days' written notice.
Conflict of Interest.
When managing a client's account on a wrap fee basis, we receive as compensation for
our investment advisory services, the balance of the total wrap fee you pay after custodial,
trading and other management costs (including execution and transaction fees) have been
deducted. Accordingly, we have a conflict of interest because we have a financial incentive
to maximize our compensation by seeking to reduce or minimize the total costs incurred
in your account(s) subject to a wrap fee.
• Beacon FA pays Schwab transaction costs for each executed trade in wrap fee
accounts. As a result, Beacon FA has a financial incentive to limit orders for wrap
fee accounts because trades increase our transaction costs. Thus, an incentive exists
to trade less frequently in a wrap fee program.
• Additionally, Schwab generally does not charge commissions [or transaction fees]
for online trades of U.S. exchange-listed equities, U.S. exchange-listed ETFs, and
no-transaction-fee (“NTF”) mutual funds. This means that, in most cases, when we
buy these types of securities, we can do so without paying commissions to Schwab.
We are available to discuss Schwab’s execution related pricing with you so that
you can compare the total costs of entering into a wrap fee arrangement versus a
non-wrap fee arrangement. If you choose to enter into a wrap fee arrangement,
your total cost to invest could exceed the cost of paying for brokerage and advisory
services separately.

Beacon FA uses the ending quarterly balance in the total plan’s account
throughout the billing period, after taking into account deposits and withdrawals,
for purposes of determining the market value of the assets upon which the
advisory fee is based.

of Beacon FA's fees within five business days of signing the client contract. Thereafter,
clients may terminate the client contract generally with 30 days' written notice.
