Fees and Compensation (Item 5)
Description
Fees for all services are priced according to the range of work and degree of
complexity associated with the client’s situation. Fees for each of our three forms
of Agreement, Limited Scope Financial Planning, Comprehensive Planning and
Investment Management, are explained in detail below.
Fees are negotiable.
Fee Billing
The fee for Investment Advisory Services only is based on a percentage of assets
under management and ranges from ½ of 1% per year to 1 ¼% per year. The rate
is negotiable and is specified in the Agreement. Fees are billed quarterly, in
advance, at the beginning of each quarter, based on the value of the account on
the last business day of the previous quarter. There is no minimum fee.
Fees for Financial Planning and Investment Advisory Services are billed quarterly,
in advance, meaning that we invoice our clients once the three-month billing period
has begun. Fees range from $150 to $7,500 quarterly. Payment in full is due when
billed. Fees are usually deducted from a designated client account, but can be
paid by check upon invoice received by the client. The client must consent in
advance to direct debiting of their investment account.
The fee payment schedule for work under a Letter of Agreement is specified in the
Agreement before the work begins.
Other Fees
Custodians may charge transaction fees on purchases or sales of certain mutual
funds and exchange-traded funds. These transaction charges are usually small
and incidental to the purchase or sale of a security. Selection of the security is
more important than the nominal fee that custodians charge to buy or sell the
security.

Expense Ratios
Mutual funds generally charge a management fee for their services as investment
managers. The management fee is called an expense ratio.
For example, an expense ratio of 0.75 means that the mutual fund company
charges 0.75% (or ¾ of 1%) per year for their services. These fees are in addition
to fees paid by the client to The Monitor Group, Inc.
Performance figures quoted by mutual fund companies in various publications are
after their fees have been deducted.
Past Due Accounts and Termination of Agreement
The Monitor Group, Inc. reserves the right to cease working on any account that is
more than sixty (60) days overdue. Our company also reserves the right to
terminate any financial planning engagement where, in the judgment of the Monitor
Group, Inc., a client has willfully concealed or has refused to provide pertinent
information about financial situations when necessary and appropriate.
A client may terminate a contract at any time by means of written notice to the
Company delivered thirty (30) days in advance of the effective termination date.
For termination in the first year, the initial year’s fee is earned in full when the
Financial Plan or detailed Investment Strategy is presented.
All Financial Plan fees are earned when paid and no fee shall be reimbursed upon
termination of the agreement.
After year one, Investment Advisory fees paid in advance will be refunded on a
pro-rata basis as specified in the Agreement.
