Item 5 - Fees and Compensation
          Benjamin F. Edwards Current Investment Advisory Fees

          BFE will provide investment advisory services selected by the client for the investment advisory fees discussed in
          this section.

          BFE’s investment advisory fee is an annual wrap fee that consists of (1) the fee for advisory services provided by
          BFE (the "Edwards Fee") and, if applicable, (2) the fee for portfolio management services provided to the client
          (the "Manager Fee"); the Edwards Fee and Manager Fee together is known as the “Total Fee”.

Benjamin F. Edwards & Co. | ADV Part 2A Firm Brochure                                                                          Page 15 of 45

          The Edwards Fee includes but is not limited to BFE's investment advisory services, account administration, trade
          execution through the custodian, and compensation to the financial advisor. The maximum Edwards Fee is 2.00%.
          Please note, there is a minimum annual fee of $125 that applies to all BFE investment advisory accounts.

          The Manager Fee, if applicable, includes portfolio management services compensation to BFE or third-party asset
          managers. The Manager Fee varies and will depend on the manager and/or strategy selected by the client, BFE, or
          the financial advisor.

          The client is responsible for the Total Fee up to a maximum of 2.50% annually. BFE reserves the right to increase
          the Total Fee by five percent per calendar year. Any Total Fee (as described herein) increase will be preceded by
          notification to me of the increase. Where a Total Fee increase is the result of a change to the client’s Investment
          Advisory Program Selection, it will require the client’s express written consent. In instances where BFE provides
          clients notification of a fee increase, BFE will send the notification as part of the client statement or in a separate
          communication.

          BFE’s investment advisory fees are negotiable, and the client’s actual fee is documented in the BFE Investment
          Advisory Agreement which is executed by the client. The investment advisory fee is charged pro-rata on a
          quarterly basis in advance and will be based on the average daily asset value of the client’s account for the
          previous quarter. BFE’s investment advisory fees will be debited from the client’s advisory account unless an
          alternate BFE account is designated by the client for such purpose.
