Forge Financial Services LLC

ITEM 5: FEES AND COMPENSATION
   FEE DESCRIPTION AND SCHEDULE
  For each of the programs utilized by Forge, the Account Fee is negotiable, is based on the value of the assets
  in the Account as of the close of business on the last business day of the preceding quarter, including cash
  holdings, and is payable quarterly in advance. The Account Fee will be adjusted for deposits or withdrawals
  during the prior quarter pro rata based on the asset value of the transaction.

  The Account Fee may be negotiated and will vary due to certain factors, including but not limited to: the
  number, type, and size of the account(s); the range and frequency of additional services provided to the client
  and account(s); the value of the assets under management for the client relationship; the experience and
  qualifications of the investment adviser representative working with the client; and/or as otherwise agreed with
  the client.

  Please note, Forge, in its sole and absolute discretion, will waive or reduce the Account Fee for employees,
  family members, members, and affiliates of Forge. As a result, Forge will offer certain clients lower fees than other
  clients. Some clients will pay higher fees than other clients for the same services.

  LPL Advisory Program - MAS

      In the Manager Access Select program, clients pay LPL, Forge and the SMA Portfolio Manager or Model
      Advisor (as applicable) a single fee (“Account Fee”) for advisory services and execution of transactions.
      Clients do not pay LPL brokerage commissions or transaction charges for execution of transactions in
      addition to the Account Fee. The Account Fee is negotiable between the client and Forge and is set out in
      the Account Application. The Account Fee is typically a straight percentage based on the value of all
      assets in the account, including cash and cash equivalents. The Account Fee also may be structured on a
      tiered basis, with a reduced percentage rate based on reaching certain thresholds. The maximum Account
      Fee is 1.50%. LPL retains up to 0.40% for its administrative, custody and clearing services.

        In the SMA Platform, the Account Fee is paid to LPL and is shared among LPL, Forge and the SMA Portfolio
        Manager. LPL pays a portion of the Account Fee to the SMA Portfolio Manager, which is negotiated
        between LPL and the SMA Portfolio Manager.

        In the MP Platform, the Account Fee is paid to LPL and is shared between LPL and Forge. LPL has separate
        agreements with and pays a fee to the Model Advisors. LPL retains a fee of 0.05% of account assets per
        year for its services as portfolio manager of the Model Portfolio. In addition, the Model Advisor receives a
        fee that is negotiated between LPL and the Model Advisor.

      Forge shall receive 100% of the gross advisory fee after deduction of the SMA Portfolio Manager or Model
      Advisor’s management fee and LPL’s Program Fee.

      The initial Account Fee is due at the end of the month in which this Account is accepted by SMA Portfolio
      Manager and LPL and will include a prorated amount for the initial quarter.

  LPL Advisory Program - OMP

 FORGE FINANCIAL SERVICES, LLC | Form ADV Part 2A | v. March 2026                                         Page| 6

     In the OMP program, clients pay LPL and Forge an ongoing advisory fee (“Account Fee”). The Account Fee
     is negotiable between the client and Forge and is set out in the Account Application. The Account Fee is
     typically a straight percentage based on the value of all assets in the account, including cash and cash
     equivalents. The Account Fee also may be structured on a tiered basis, with a reduced percentage rate
     based on reaching certain thresholds. The maximum Account Fee is 1.50%. The Account Fee is paid to LPL,
     and LPL shares up to 100% with Forge pursuant to the agreement between LPL and Forge.

     The initial Account Fee is due at the beginning of the quarterly cycle following acceptance of the Account
     and will include the prorated amount for the initial quarter in addition to the standard quarterly fee for the
     upcoming quarter.

 Because the fee rates paid to SMA Portfolio Managers, Model Advisors and LPL vary by program, Forge has a
 financial incentive to recommend a program, SMA Portfolio Manager or Model Advisor that maximizes the
 portion of the Account Fee received by Forge. Because clients are responsible for negotiating and agreeing to
 the Account Fee and a program, a SMA Portfolio Manager or Model Advisor for an account, clients should
 consider carefully how the financial incentives to LPL and Forge affect the selection of a program, SMA Portfolio
 Manager or Model Portfolio and specific recommendations for an account.

 For more detail on each of the above programs, please see the program account packet (which includes the
 account agreement, LPL Form ADV, Part 2A or LPL Form ADV, Part 2A - Appendix 1, as applicable).

 LPL Programs for Independent Investment Advisors - SWM

     structured products, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), cash and cash equivalents. The Account Fee also
     may be structured on a tiered basis, with a reduced percentage rate based on reaching certain thresholds.
     Please note that the Account Fee is calculated separately for each account. Accounts are not combined
     (“householded”) to reach tiered thresholds.

     The maximum Account Fee is 1.50%. The Account Fee is paid to LPL, and LPL shares up to 100% with Forge
