Item 5: Fees and Compensation
SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
Separate accounts are individual portfolios of securities managed to meet clients’ unique needs and include
institutional accounts and managed accounts. Generally, the minimum account size for a separate account ranges
from $1 million to $25 million depending on the strategy selected. The minimum account size for wrap-fee and
UMA programs is typically $75,000 to $250,000, depending on the strategy and Sponsor minimums. Calamos
reserves the right to waive or reduce the minimum account size at our discretion. Separate account fees are based
upon a percentage of assets under management, typically calculated and invoiced at the end of each calendar
quarter and are normally payable quarterly in advance. Fees may also be payable in arrears. Please see your
Investment Management Agreement to determine your fee schedule.
Below is the standard fee schedule.
