ITEM 5 - FEES AND COMPENSATION
The specific manner in which investment advisory service fees are charged is established in the
MWAFS Client Advisory Agreement.
The investment adviser service fee will be collected by the IAR as a check written payable to
MWAFS. As per MWAFS policy, cashier's checks cannot be accepted for amounts under
$10,000. The IAR is paid a percentage of the fee that is received by MWAFS in accordance
with the agreement between the IAR and MWAFS. The amount MWAFS pays to the IAR
normally ranges from 55 to 85 percent of the investment adviser service fee collected.
The amount of the investment adviser service fee and the type of fee arrangement is
determined between the client and the IAR and mutually agreed upon in the MWAFS
Client Advisory Agreement. The fee is determined based on anticipated work to be done and
the client’s specific situation and circumstances. Advisory services that are anticipated to be
more complex will generally warrant more time spent and/or a higher fee. Less complex
services will generally warrant less time spent and/or a lower fee.
The IAR will obtain information from the client verbally and from current documents approved
for use by MWAFS. The information gathered during this session will assist the IAR in determining
the most appropriate course of action for the client's financial and investment goals.
Financial planning service fees cannot be deducted from any client’s accounts. The only
advisory fees that are permitted to be deducted directly from a client’s account is a managed
account fee as disclosed in the separate MWAFS Managed Account Brochure.
MWAFS will not accept advance payments for financial planning services that are greater than
$1,200 and more than six months in advance. Typically, MWAFS does not accept payment
for financial planning services until after recommendations have been presented to the client
by the IAR, unless circumstances warrant otherwise.
All fees assessed by MWAFS are subject to negotiation at the sole discretion of MWAFS. It is
possible that the services offered can be obtained elsewhere for a lower charge.
The financial planning services fee charged would fall under one of these two types;
Hourly Rate
The IAR is able to charge an hourly fee for their financial planning services. Fees are based on an
hourly rate of $25 to $500/hour. Hourly fees will be calculated by multiplying the number of
hours of service performed by the designated hourly rate. The hourly rate is decided on by the
client and IAR and will be indicated on the MWAFS Client Advisory Agreement. The hours billed
for and the total fee will be indicated on the New Client Record Form that is sent in with
the client’s check for payment of services.
Flat Fee
The IAR is able to charge a flat fee for their Financial Planning services. The flat fee range is from
$25 to $10,000, depending upon the level and scope of the services required. The flat
fee amount is decided on by the client and IAR and will be indicated on the MWAFS
Client Advisory Agreement and the New Client Record that is sent in with the client’s check
for payment of services.
Ongoing Financial Planning Services
Ongoing financial planning services can be completed for the client under one MWAFS Client
Advisory Agreement, as long as the New Client Record is submitted to MWAFS with the client’s
payment for the services provided and the information on the form aligns with the MWAFS
Client Advisory Agreement that is on file with MWAFS.

Adviser managed accounts are non-discretionary brokerage accounts, meaning the IAR must receive authorization from the
Client prior to initiating any transaction and the IAR must act on those instructions in a timely manner.
