ITEM 5: FEES AND COMPENSATION Fees for Financial Planning Services KCM does not charge a separate fee for Financial Planning services. Financial Planning services are offered to certain clients in conjunction with the advisory services the Firm offers their clients. Clients only pay the fees related to the assets under management. Refer to the section below regarding Fees for Advisory Services. Fees for Investment Advisory Services KCM provides professional management of stock and bond portfolios, for a fee based on the market values of the portfolios at the end of each quarter, payable quarterly, in arrears. Adviser’s fees are negotiable. No particular ranges have been pre-established concerning accounts that are the subject of negotiated fees. Adviser’s basic annual fee structure is: Cash Management 0.50% Investment Grade Fixed Income 0.50% Equities, ADRs, ETFs, ETNs 0.90% Open and Closed-End Mutual Funds, 0.90% Preferred Stock and Hybrid Securities 0.90% KCM charges a minimum fee of $5,000 per annum. Investment advisory fees are generally billed quarterly in arrears based upon the market value of the account at the end of the current quarter. KCM has the discretion to adjust fees for significant deposits and withdrawals. In some cases, a client is also billed for the balance of the quarter in which his account was opened in addition to the following full quarter. The term "quarter" refers to either a calendar quarter or the client's fiscal quarter. The initial quarterly fee for new clients is pro-rated based upon the date the account is opened. Clients of KCM are subject to a 30-day termination fee based upon assets under management at the date of termination. This fee can or will be charged at the sole discretion of the Adviser. Fees will be debited directly from client accounts. However, in certain case-by-case instances and where pre-arranged with the concurrence of KCM, clients are provided the option to have their fees billed separately. Advisory fees are negotiable and arrangements with any particular client can differ from those described above. In addition, for family and friends of the Firm, the Firm can, in its sole discretion, reduce or waive management fees in their entirety. There are no fees payable before service is provided. Clients and/or KCM can terminate the investment advisory contract upon 30-day written notice. KCM does not provide clients advice as to the tax deductibility of its advisory fees. Clients are directed to consult a tax professional to determine the potential tax deductibility of our fees. Special circumstances can or will cause fees to vary from the above schedule. KCM will “Household” accounts, based on the address of record for each account, in order to combine assets under management, which in turn, could lower the management fee assessed by KCM. KCM Investment Advisors, LLC March 19, 2026 Form ADV Part 2A KCM at times, will not charge a fee to small accounts of a client because of the fee the client is paying on the total relationship. KCM reserves the right to negotiate fees with clients. KCM, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to change fee schedules, lower, fees than those described above with the consent and acceptance by Client. Some of KCM’s clients may have differing fee schedules than those described above based on when they entered into an advisory agreement with KCM. KCM reserves the right and can at its discretion charge lower fees than those agreed to and as described in the IMA (Investment Management Agreement). Cash and other asset classes can be charged at a lower rate, or no rate at all depending on certain client circumstance and other portfolio considerations. Further, KCM can adjust rates down (reduce) from the IMA rates without explicit written consent of Client. KCM’s fees are exclusive of brokerage commissions, transaction fees, and other related costs and expenses which shall be incurred by the client. Such costs are exclusive of and in addition to KCM’s fee, and KCM does not receive any portion of these costs. Please refer to Item 12 of this brochure regarding KCM’s brokerage practices and the factors that KCM considers in selecting or recommending broker-dealers for client transactions and determining the reasonableness of their compensation. Furthermore, clients whose assets are invested in ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds), ETNs, (Exchange Traded Notes), Mutual Funds, and Money Market Accounts where a management fee is assessed as an expense, are in effect, paying two advisory fees. First, clients pay a regular quarterly fee on the money value of total assets under KCM’s management, which includes the assets that are invested in the aforementioned funds. In addition, clients pay another fee to the investment adviser or sponsor of the fund based upon the amount of their investment in that fund. |
