Ulrich Consulting and Investment Group LLC

ITEM 5 - FEES AND COMPENSATION

UIC offers its services on a fee basis, which may include hourly and/or fixed fees, as well
as fees based upon assets under management. Prior to engaging UIC for advisory
services, the client is required to enter into a written agreement with UIC setting forth the
terms and conditions of the engagement.

Investment Management and Consulting Fees

UIC provides investment management services for an annual fee based upon a
percentage of the market value of the assets being managed by UIC. UIC’s annual fee is
exclusive of, and in addition to when appropriate taxing authorities require taxing revenues
generated by our fee (the applicable state, local and gross receipt tax rates are subject to
change based on the discretion of the state.), brokerage commissions, transaction fees,
and other related costs and expenses which are incurred by the client. UIC does not,
however, receive any portion of these taxes, commissions, fees, and costs. Generally,
UIC’s annual fee is prorated and charged monthly, in arrears, based upon the market
value of the assets being managed by UIC on the last day of the previous month. In limited
circumstances, UIC’s annual fee may be prorated and charged quarterly, in arrears or in
advance, based upon the market value of the assets being managed by UIC on the last
day of the previous quarter. Our maximum investment advisory fee is 1.00%. The specific
advisory fees are set forth in your Investment Advisory Agreement. For certain larger
clients, UIC may charge an annual fixed fee, prorated and charged monthly or quarterly,
based on the scope of services to be provided to the client and/or the client’s assets under
management. The annual fixed fee is negotiable.

For clients who choose to invest in alternative investments or private investment vehicles,
the value of these assets will be included in the calculation of UIC's investment advisory
fee as part of its assets under management (AUM). The valuation of these investments is
typically updated when the sponsor or recordkeeper provides the values to UIC. However,
in cases where such values are not readily available, UIC may use alternative valuation
sources for billing purposes, including fund statements, loan amortization schedules,
financial statements, tax documents, or other similar documentation. It is important to note,
however, that due to the nature of alternative investments, valuations may sometimes
become outdated (e.g., by more than twelve months) and may be subject to backdating
when there are delays in receiving values from sponsors or recordkeepers. In cases where
alternatives lack readily available financial reports or information for valuation, UIC's
investment committee will determine and approve the appropriate valuation methodology
to be used and UIC shall maintain all the necessary records and documentation relating
to such methodology.

UIC, in its sole discretion, may negotiate to charge a lesser management fee based upon
certain criteria (i.e., anticipated future earning capacity, anticipated future additional

assets, dollar amount of assets to be managed, related accounts, account composition,
pre-existing client, account retention, pro bono activities, etc.).

For the initial period of investment management services, the fees are calculated on a pro
rata basis. The Agreement between UIC and the client will continue in effect until
terminated by either party pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. UIC’s fees are prorated
through the date of termination and any remaining balance is charged or refunded to the
client, as appropriate.

Clients may make additions to and withdrawals from their account at any time, subject to
UIC’s right to terminate an account. Additions may be in cash or securities provided that
UIC reserves the right to liquidate any transferred securities or decline to accept particular
securities into a client’s account. Clients may withdraw account assets on notice to UIC,
subject to the usual and customary securities settlement procedures. However, UIC
designs its portfolios as long-term investments and the withdrawal of assets may impair
the achievement of a client’s investment objectives. UIC may consult with its clients about
the options and ramifications of transferring securities. However, clients are advised that
when transferred securities are liquidated, they are subject to transaction fees, fees
assessed at the mutual fund level (i.e. contingent deferred sales charge) and/or tax
ramifications.

Fees Charged by Financial Institutions

As further discussed in response to Item 12 (below), UIC generally recommends that
clients utilize the brokerage and clearing services of Charles Schwab & Co., Inc.
(“Schwab”) and/or Fidelity, Inc. (“Fidelity”) for investment management accounts.
However, UIC may also recommend the custodial services of Principal Financial Group,
and BOK Financial, U.S. Bank, as well as other service providers, depending on the needs
and wishes of the client.

UIC may only implement its investment management recommendations after the client
has arranged for and furnished UIC with all information and authorization regarding
accounts with appropriate financial institutions. Financial institutions include, but are not
limited to, Schwab, Fidelity, Principal Financial Group, BOK Financial, U.S. Bank, and any

other broker-dealer recommended by UIC, broker-dealer directed by the client, trust
companies, banks etc. (collectively referred to herein as the “Financial Institutions”).

Clients may incur certain charges imposed by other third parties such as fees charged by
Independent Managers (as defined below), broker-dealers, custodians, technology fees,
trust companies, banks, and other financial institutions (collectively “Financial Institutions”)
to cover fund management fees and expenses, deferred sales charges, odd lot
differentials, transfer taxes, wire transfer and electronic fund fees, and other fees and
...

varying billing practices than UIC.
