Item 5 – Fees and Compensation
A. All management fees charged are subject to negotiation with each client. Fees for each client are
documented in the Investment Advisory Agreement completed by each client at the inception of the
client relationship with Herold. Herold generally charges 1% of the market value of the assets
placed under Herold’s management.
B. The specific manner in which fees are charged by Herold is established in a client’s Investment
Advisory Agreement with Herold. Herold will generally bill its fees on a quarterly basis. Clients are
billed in advance each calendar quarter. Clients may also elect to be billed directly for fees or to
authorize Herold to directly debit fees from client’s accounts. Management fees may be prorated for
each capital contribution made during the applicable calendar quarter depending on the nature and
size of the contribution. Management fees will not be prorated for withdrawals made during the
applicable quarter unless the management agreement has been terminated.
C. Herold’s managed account program fees are exclusive of brokerage commissions, transaction fees,
and other related costs and expenses which shall be incurred by the client. Clients may incur certain
charges imposed by custodians, brokers, third party investment and other third parties such as fees
charged by managers, custodial fees, 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. Mutual fund and exchange traded funds also charge internal management
fees, which are disclosed in a fund’s prospectus. Such charges, fees and commissions are exclusive
of and in addition to Herold’s fee. Herold does not receive any portion of these commissions, fees
and costs. Herold does not charge a management fee for assets invested in open end mutual funds
except for advisor class shares. In certain instances client funds may be kept or placed in a A, B or C
class shares of a mutual fund that pay 12(b)1 fees to Herold & Lantern Investments, Inc. where a
different class of shares of the same fund managing the same portfolio exists that does not have
12(b)1 fees but, since Herold Advisors does not charge a management fee on these shares, affected
clients are benefitted by the 12(b)1 fee being less than the management fee that would otherwise
apply. Also, in certain circumstances switching funds out of class A, B or C shares may be a taxable
event.
Herold & Lantern Investments, Inc. an affiliate broker‐dealer receives marketing assistance payments
from most of the market sweep program offerings made available on our brokerage and advisory
platforms. The amount of payment depends on the aggregated dollars invested in money market funds
over a given month and can range from zero to 0.00043 of the monthly balance. Money market sweep
programs that do not pay marketing assistance are also available to Herold & Lantern Investments, Inc.,
and Herold Advisory brokerage and advisory platforms respectively. Use of sweep offerings that pay
market assistance have a negative impact on performance results of the money market platform.
Amounts received from these market assistance programs are used to contain cost across Herold &
Lantern Investments, Inc. product offerings, which Herold Advisors, Inc. may utilize. These arrangements
present a conflict of interest when it comes to selecting or recommending a money market sweep option
in that Herold has an incentive to recommend that clients select a money market sweep option because
it pays more compensation to Herold & Lantern Investments, Inc. Herold Advisors may margin a customer
position based on request. Herold & Lantern Investments, Inc may receive a portion of the margin expenses
from their clearing firm based on this transaction, which poses a conflict of interest in that Herold has an
incentive to recommend the use of margin because it pays more compensation to Herold & Lantern
Investments, Inc. Amounts received from these participation programs are used to contain cost across
Herold & Lantern Investments, Inc. product offerings, which Herold Advisors, Inc. may utilize.

D. We do charge a management fee on assets invested in closed end mutual funds and exchange
traded funds (ETFs). Herold & Lantern Investments, Inc. is a participant in Pershing’s FundVest
ticket charge program. This program offers clients no‐load mutual funds with no transaction fees.
Through formal agreements Herold & Lantern Investments, Inc. is eligible to receive revenue
sharing participation for assets that are held within these programs. Restrictions may apply in
certain situations.
Item 12 further describes the factors that Herold considers in selecting Herold & Lantern Investments,
Inc. for client transactions and in determining the reasonableness of their compensation (e.g.
commissions).
E. As described in Item 5 B above, clients will be charged a quarterly fee in advance. Upon termination
of any account any prepaid unearned fees will be promptly refunded, and any earned unpaid fees will
be due and payable. Unearned fees will be computed based on the number of days that have
expired in the quarter.

the clients’ Investment Advisory Agreement. |
