Item 5: Fees and Compensation

Financial Counseling Fees: Trebuchet is compensated for financial counseling and advisory
services either by negotiated fixed fees or hourly charges. In either case the services and fees
are specified in an advisory agreement between the client and Trebuchet. Trebuchet
negotiates terms of advisory agreements with clients on a case-by-case basis. Fees are
determined based on the nature of the services being provided and the complexity of each
client’s circumstances. Fees generally range from $2,500 to $50,000 annually. Fees are paid in
advance or arrears as indicated by the advisory contract.

Assets Under Management (AUM) Fees: Trebuchet is compensated for asset management
based on a fee which is calculated based on the value of their client’s assets on the last business
day of the previous quarter. Clients are billed in advance on a quarterly basis and fees can be
pro-rated. Clients will be charged at the rate set forth in their Assets Under Management
Agreement. AUM fees range from .25 to 1.00 (.25% to 1.00 %) annually. Trebuchet may help
facilitate collateral loans or margin loans if client’s situation warrants. In these cases, Trebuchet
will continue to manage assets used as collateral and will therefore continue to collect the
assets under management fee.

Clients select to deduct fees from client accounts or pay fees directly. Any fees charged
outside of the ranges described above will be agreed to in writing with the client prior to
engagement. An advisory agreement may be canceled at any time by either party, for any
reason upon receipt of written notice. Upon termination any prepaid, unearned fees will be
refunded as pro-rated based on the time and effort expended by Trebuchet prior to
termination.

Other Advisor Fees: All fees paid to Trebuchet for investment advisory services are separate
and distinct from the fees and expenses that may be charged by other advisors (including
separate account managers, mutual funds and/or ETFs). These fees and expenses are described
in the management agreement or prospectus. These fees will generally include a management
fee and other fund expenses. Accordingly, the client should review both the fees charged by
other advisors and funds and our fees to fully understand the total amount of fees to be paid by
the client and to thereby evaluate the advisory services being provided.

Trebuchet recommends the Lord Abbett Managed Municipal Strategies Portfolios for clients
seeking municipal fixed income securities as part of their portfolios. The client will sign an
agreement directly with Lord Abbett for these separately managed assets and the client will be
subject to the fees as outlined in the management agreement with Lord Abbett. Trebuchet
does not receive any portion of the fees paid to Lord Abbett. The incentive to recommend the
Lord Abbett strategies to clients is the client management fees are based on a declining tiered
assets under management fee schedule. The Trebuchet client assets will be aggregated for fee
purposes and the fee will decrease as aggregate assets reach the various schedule tiers.

Trebuchet recommends the Separate Account Management of Nuveen Asset
Management(“Nuveen”) for clients seeking corporate fixed income securities as part of their
portfolios. The client will sign an agreement directly with Nuveen for these separately
managed assets and the client will be subject to the fees as outlined in the management
agreement with Nuveen. Trebuchet does not receive any portion of this fee paid to Nuveen.

Custodian fees: 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. Please refer to “Brokerage Practices”
section (Item 12) for additional information.
