* Fees for Global Growth and International Growth are for portfolios invested in ordinary shares.
Fees will vary for portfolios invested in ADRs as substitutes for ordinary shares.
Such fees are payable quarterly, either in advance or arrears. For accounts that are
payable in advance, the initial fee payment will be due in full on the date the account is
opened at Polen Capital and will be based on the asset value of the account at that date.
The period for which such payment will run shall be from the opening date through the
last business day on the next full calendar quarter and will be prorated accordingly.
Thereafter, the fee will be based on the account asset value on the last business day of
the previous calendar quarter and will become due the following business day. Assets
received into the account during any fee period will be charged a pro-rata fee based on
the number of days remaining in the fee period against the total number of days in the
fee period. No adjustments will be made to the fee for appreciation or depreciation in the
value of securities held in the account during any period for which such fee is charged.
Accounts that are payable in arrears will be calculated on the value of assets in the
account at the end of each calendar quarter. Fee breakpoints are generally applied for
each strategy; account balances will not be aggregated across multiple investment
strategies for individual clients.
While we believe our standard fees are reasonable, services similar to those provided by
us may be available for lower fees from other sources. The fees that we charge for
investment advisory services are specified in the agreement between us and each
individual client. All fees are subject to negotiation based on the circumstances of the
client and other factors, including but not limited to the type and size of the account and
the type and amount of client-related services that Polen Capital will provide.
Clients may grant Polen Capital the authority to receive quarterly payments directly from
their account held by an independent custodian. Accordingly, clients will provide, in
writing, limited authorization to withdraw the contractually agreed upon fees from their
account. Polen Capital will send to clients it advises directly and the custodian a bill
showing the amount of the fee, the value of client assets on which the fee was based,
and the specific manner in which the fee was calculated. The custodian of the account is
advised in writing of the limitation on Polen Capital’s access to the account. The custodian
will also send directly to clients a statement, at least quarterly, indicating all the amounts
disbursed from the account including the amount of advisory fees paid directly to Polen
Capital.
Clients may, at any time, by written notice to Polen Capital, remove assets from their
accounts and/or terminate their investment advisory agreements with Polen Capital, and
will receive a pro rata refund of any unearned fee based on the number of days remaining
in the quarter in the case of clients billed in advance. A full refund will be provided should
clients terminate their investment advisory agreements within five business days of
signing their respective agreements, without penalty. Please reference your specific
advisory agreement for more detailed information on termination notices.
Polen Capital acts as a sub-adviser to wrap fee programs and investment management
fees charged to these programs may differ from the fees charged to our other clients. The
wrap fee program sponsor generally arranges for payment of our advisory fee on behalf
of the client, monitors and evaluates investment performance, may provide asset
allocation services, and in most cases provides custodial services for the client’s assets,
all for a single fee (a “wrap fee”) paid by the client to the sponsor. Our compensation is
received quarterly, as a percentage of client assets in the program.
Model Delivery Clients
Clients to whom Polen Capital provides recommendations but for whom Polen Capital is
not responsible for placing trades to implement those recommendations will generally be
charged lower fees. |
