Buckingham Capital Management Inc

Item 5    Fees and Compensation

A. PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT FEES
The annualized fee for Portfolio Management Services will be charged as a percentage of
assets under management, according to the following schedule:
Assets under Management                Annual Fee
First $1,000,000                         1.50%
Next $250,000                            1.25%
Next $750,000                            1.00%
Amounts exceeding $2,000,000             0.85%
Our fees are billed monthly or quarterly, in advance, at the beginning of each month based
upon the value (market value or fair market value in the absence of market value), of the
client's account at the end of the previous billing period. Fees are calculated by taking the
market value of your account and multiplying it by your annual management fee percentage
relative to the number of days in each billing period. Fees will be debited from the account in
accordance with the client authorization in the Schedule A to Investment Advisory Agreement.
Advisory fees may be billed directly to the client and not deducted from the client’s account in
accordance with the authorization in the Client Services Agreement. Under no circumstances
do we require or solicit payment of fees in excess of $1200 more than six months in advance
of services rendered.
Although we have established the fee schedules above, we retain the discretion to negotiate
fees on a client-by-client basis. Your facts, circumstances and needs will be considered in
determining the fee schedule. These include the complexity of your financial situation, the
amount of assets to be placed under management, anticipated future additional assets,
related accounts, portfolio style, account composition, reports, among other factors. The
specific annual fee schedule will be identified in our contract.
We may group certain related client accounts for the purposes of achieving the minimum
account size requirements and determining the annualized fee.
Discounts not generally available to our advisory clients may be offered to family members
and friends of associated persons of our firm.
A client agreement may be canceled at any time, by either party, for any reason upon receipt
of 30 days written notice. As disclosed above, certain fees are paid in advance of services
provided. Upon termination of any account, you will be invoiced through the end of the month
in which termination is made. Any prepaid, unearned fees will be promptly refunded, and any
earned, unpaid fees will be due and payable.
All fees paid to Buckingham Capital Management, Inc. for investment advisory services are

separate and distinct from the fees and expenses charged by mutual funds and/or ETFs to
their shareholders. These fees and expenses are described in each fund's prospectus. These
fees will generally include a management fee, other fund expenses, and a possible
distribution fee. If the fund also imposes sales charges, a client may pay an initial or deferred
sales charge. A client could invest in a mutual fund directly, without our services. In that case,
the client would not receive the services provided by our firm which are designed, among
other things, to assist the client in determining which mutual fund or funds are most
appropriate to each client's financial condition and objectives. Accordingly, the client should
review both the fees charged by the funds and our fees to fully understand the total amount of
fees to be paid by the client and to thereby evaluate the advisory services being provided.
In addition to our advisory fees, clients are also responsible for the fees and expenses
charged by custodians and imposed by broker dealers, including, but not limited to, any
transaction charges imposed by a broker dealer with which an independent investment
manager effects transactions for the client's account(s). Please refer to the "Brokerage
Practices" section (Item 12) of this Form ADV for additional information.
Buckingham Capital Management, Inc. is deemed to be a fiduciary to advisory clients that are
employee benefit plans or individual retirement accounts (IRAs) pursuant to the Employee
Retirement Income and Securities Act (“ERISA”). As such, our firm is subject to specific
duties and obligations under ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code that include among other
things, restrictions concerning certain forms of compensation. To avoid engaging in prohibited
transactions, Buckingham Capital Management, Inc. may only charge fees for investment
advice about products for which our firm and/or our related persons do not receive any
commissions or 12b-1 fees, or conversely, investment advice about products for which our
firm and/or our related persons receive commissions or 12b-1 fees, however, only when such
fees are used to offset Buckingham Capital Management, Inc.'s advisory fees.
Clients should note that similar advisory services may (or may not) be available from other
registered (or unregistered) investment advisers for similar or lower fees.

B. INVESTMENT CONSULTING FEES
We charge Investment Consulting fees on a flat fee basis. The Advisor’s flat fee begins at
$300, depending upon the nature and complexity of services or as otherwise determined at
the discretion of the Adviser. Where a project fee for services is proposed, we may request a
deposit equal to ½ of the total proposed fee, with the balance due upon the delivery of
services. At no time will this deposit be more than $1,200. We determine the proposed fee by
estimating the total number of hours anticipated to complete the project, along with the nature
and complexity of the client’s request. We retain the discretion to negotiate fees on a client-
by-client basis. Clients should note that similar advisory services may (or may not) be
available from other registered (or unregistered) investment advisers for similar or lower fees.
