Prime Buchholz LLC

ITEM 5     FEES AND COMPENSATION
Clients typically pay Prime Buchholz an annual fee for its services, that is based upon a percentage of assets
under advisement or management. Clients also may retain us on a project basis. Clients are invoiced in
advance at the beginning of each calendar quarter for the next quarter’s fee and based upon the market
value (plus any credit balance or minus any debit balance), of the client’s account at the end of the previous
quarter (e.g. Client’s 4th quarter invoice is based upon assets under advisement at the end of the 2nd
quarter). However, depending on the market value of a client’s account, the minimum fee may apply. Fees
are paid in advance in quarterly installments.
Prime Buchholz’s representative fees for advisory services are as follows:

Comprehensive Investment Consulting
Our Comprehensive Investment Consulting fees are typically charged as a percentage of assets under
advisement by Prime Buchholz. Fee schedules may include asset-based breakpoints ranging from
approximately 0.05% to 0.60% of assets under advisement, and may vary depending on the size and type
of each client, nature and complexity of each client’s circumstances, level of service provided, tenure of the
client relationship, governance structure, and upon mutual agreement with the client. Clients are generally

subject to a minimum annual fee, which may result in effective fees that are higher than the fee ranges set
forth above. Some clients’ minimum fees are subject to annual increases.

Outsourced Investment Solutions
Fees for Prime Buchholz’s standard Outsourced Investment Solutions are typically charged as a percentage
of assets under advisement or management by our Firm. Prime Buchholz fee schedules are subject to
breakpoints that range from approximately 0.06% to 0.80% of assets under advisement or management,
depending on the size and type of each client, nature and complexity of each client’s circumstances, level of
service provided, tenure of the client relationship, governance structure, and upon mutual agreement with
the client. Clients are generally subject to a minimum annual fee, which may result in effective fees that are
higher than the breakpoints set forth above. Some clients’ minimum fees are subject to annual increases.

Performance Reporting, Monitoring, Portfolio Analytics
Fees for clients accessing PrimePlus®, our proprietary online performance reporting and portfolio analytics
platform, are subject to a platform fee, with variable fees based on the number of investments tracked.
Fees will vary depending on the size and complexity of the portfolio, as well as the number and type of
investments held, and may also differ for clients granted only limited access to PrimePlus ®.

Limited Negotiability of Advisory Fees
Although Prime Buchholz has established the previously noted fee ranges, we retain the discretion to
negotiate alternative fees on a client-by-client basis. Client facts, circumstances, and needs are considered
in determining the fee schedule. These include the complexity of the client, assets to be placed under
advisement/management, anticipated future additional assets, related accounts, portfolio style, account
composition, reports, as well as the factors set forth above among other factors. For some clients we
group related client accounts for the purpose of determining the annualized fee. The specific annual fee is
included in the agreement between Prime Buchholz and each client.
Minimum fees typically prevent Prime Buchholz from providing services to very small clients.
The Firm has an incentive to sell its Outsourced Investment Services models to clients since they typically
generate higher fees for the Firm.

Termination of the Advisory Relationship
Our standard agreements provide that either party may terminate an agreement, at any time, for any reason
upon receipt of thirty (30) days’ written notice. As disclosed previously, certain fees are paid in advance of
services provided. Upon termination of any account, any prepaid, unearned fees will be promptly
refunded. In calculating a client’s reimbursement of fees, we will prorate the reimbursement according to
the number of days remaining in the billing period.

Underlying Investment Manager Fees
All fees paid to Prime Buchholz for investment advisory services are separate and distinct from the fees
and expenses charged by the underlying managers of the investment vehicles (“funds”) or separate
accounts in which the client is invested. These fees and expenses are described in each fund’s offering
documents or the client’s separate account agreement with the manager, as applicable. These fees will
generally include a management fee, other fund expenses, and a possible distribution fee (mutual funds and
ETFs). In some cases, the manager may also charge a performance-based fee or allocation. If the fund also
imposes sales charges, a client may pay an initial or deferred sales charge. A client could invest in a fund
directly, without our services. In that case, the client would not receive the services we provide.
Therefore, the client should review both the fees charged by the funds and our fees to fully understand

total fees in context with the level of advisory services being provided.

Additional Fees and Expenses
In addition to our advisory fees, clients are also responsible for the fees and expenses charged by
custodians and imposed by broker-dealers, including, but not limited to, any transaction charges imposed
by a broker-dealer with which an independent investment manager effects transactions for the client’s
account(s). Please refer to the “Brokerage Practices” section (Item 12) of this Form ADV for additional
information.
Grandfathering
Some legacy advisory clients are subject to the advisory fees that were in effect at the time they entered into
the advisory relationship with us or lower fee schedules that are no longer in use. For this reason, as well
