Item 5. Fees and Compensation
FLWA offers services on a fee basis, which includes fixed fees and fees based upon assets under
management. Additionally, certain of the Firm’s Supervised Persons, in their individual capacities, offers
insurance products under a separate commission-based arrangement. Comparable services may be available
from other sources for lower fees.
Investment Management Fees
FLWA offers investment management services for an annual fee based on the amount of assets under the
Firm’s management. This management fee varies between 25 and 150 basis points (0.25% – 1.50%),
depending upon the size and composition of a client’s portfolio and the type of services rendered.
The annual fee is prorated and charged monthly (the “billing period”), in advance, based upon the market
value of the assets being managed by FLWA on the last day of the previous billing period as determined
by a party independent from the Firm (including the client’s custodian or another third-party). If assets
held with the primary custodian that the Firm recommends are deposited into or withdrawn from an account

after the inception of a billing period, the fee payable with respect to such assets will be prorated. For assets
held outside of the primary custodian that the Firm recommends, the Firm’s billing procedures may differ
since that other custodian is doing the calculations. For those held-away assets, FLWA does not prorate
fees deposited or withdrawn unless that custodian does so pursuant to their terms. For the initial period of
an engagement, the fee is calculated on a pro rata basis. In the event the advisory agreement is terminated,
the fee for the final billing period is prorated through the effective date of the termination and the
outstanding or unearned portion of the fee is charged or refunded to the client, as appropriate. The Firm
processes such refunds with or without a written request from the client, nonetheless, clients may confirm
requests for refunds in writing.
The Firm includes cash in a client’s account in determining the valuation for billing purposes. The Firm
may, in its sole discretion, not include cash in determining the fee, especially where a client has a high
percentage of cash for reasons other than the Firm's investment management decision. Additionally, for
asset management services the Firm provides with respect to certain client holdings (e.g., held-away assets,
accommodation accounts, alternative investments, etc.), FLWA may negotiate a fee rate that differs from
the range set forth above.
Alternatively, the Firm may negotiate a fixed fee for investment management or for more limited advice
(such as periodic reviews of a client’s retirement accounts). The fixed fee will vary between $250 and
$1,000, depending on the advice given and the person giving the advice.
Clients are advised that a conflict of interest exists for the FLWA to recommend that clients engage the
Firm for additional services for compensation, including rolling over retirement accounts or moving other
assets to the Firm’s management. Clients retain absolute discretion over all decisions regarding engaging
the Firm and are under no obligation to act upon any of the recommendations.
Retirement Plan Consulting Fees
FLWA charges an asset-based fee to provide clients with retirement plan consulting services. Each
engagement is individually negotiated and tailored to accommodate the needs of the individual plan
sponsor, as memorialized in the Agreement. These fees vary between 19 and 50 basis points (0.19% –
0.50%) depending upon the amount of assets to be advised on.
Fee Discretion
FLWA may, in its sole discretion, negotiate to charge a lesser fee based upon certain criteria, such as
anticipated future earning capacity, anticipated future additional assets, dollar amount of assets to be
managed, related accounts, account composition, pre-existing/legacy client relationship, account retention
and pro bono activities.

Additional Fees and Expenses
In addition to the advisory fees paid to FLWA, clients also incur certain charges imposed by other third
parties, such as broker-dealers, custodians, trust companies, banks and other financial institutions
(collectively “Financial Institutions”). These additional charges include securities brokerage commissions,
transaction fees, custodial fees, fees attributable to alternative assets, fees charged by the Independent
Managers, margin costs, charges imposed directly by a mutual fund or ETF in a client’s account, as
disclosed in the fund’s prospectus (e.g., fund management fees and other fund expenses), deferred sales
charges, odd-lot differentials, transfer taxes, wire transfer and electronic fund fees, and other fees and taxes
on brokerage accounts and securities transactions. The Firm’s brokerage practices are described at length
in Item 12, below.
Direct Fee Debit

accounts for payment of the investment advisory fees. The Financial Institutions that act as the qualified
