ITEM 5 FEES AND COMPENSATION
EXPEDITIONS AND SUMMIT ADVISORY FEES
If an Expeditions or Summit client determines to engage WQC to provide discretionary investment advisory services on a fee
basis, WQC’s tiered annual investment advisory fee is based upon a percentage (%) of the market value of the assets placed
under WQC’s management as follows. There is no minimum required assets under management, however assets less than
$500,000 are subject to a minimum quarterly fee of $1,500.00. For clients with assets subject to this minimum fee, the advisory
fees will be higher than listed below.
EXPEDITIONS AND SUMMIT FEE SCHEDULE
ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT ANNUAL RATE(S)
Assets Between $0 and $500,000 1.25%
Next $500,000 1.00%
Next $2,000,000 0.85%
Next $2,000,000 0.65%
Next $5,000,000 0.50%
Additional Assets above $10,000,000 0.40%
ASCEND ADVISORY FEES
If Ascend clients engage WQC to provide discretionary wealth management services on a fee basis, the annual fee rate shall be
1.00% of the market value of the managed assets plus a fixed fee of $1,800 annually. The 1.00% advisory fee is billed quarterly
and deducted from the custodial account. Clients may choose to remit payment for fixed fees through one of the following
methods: quarterly deductions from their account, monthly quarterly or annually via bank ACH or credit card, or annual check.
In addition to the advisory fees assessed, new Ascend clients will pay an initial setup fee of $2,000 remitted via ACH or check.
FEE CONSIDERATIONS
A. WQC’s investment advisory and financial planning fees are negotiable at WQC’s discretion, depending upon objective and
subjective factors including but not limited to: the amount of assets to be managed; portfolio composition; the scope and
complexity of the engagement; the anticipated number of meetings and servicing needs; related accounts; future earning
capacity; anticipated future additional assets; the professional(s) rendering the service(s); prior relationships with WQC and/or
its representatives, and negotiations with the client. Certain legacy clients have accepted different pre-existing service offerings
from WQC and therefore receive services under different fee schedules than as set forth above. As a result of these factors,
similarly situated clients could pay different fees, the services to be provided by WQC to any particular client could be available
from other advisers at lower fees, and certain clients have fees different than those specifically set forth above.
B. Clients may elect to have WQC’s advisory fees deducted from their custodial account. Both WQC’s Investment Advisory
Agreement and the custodial/ clearing agreement may authorize the custodian to debit the account for the amount of WQC’s
investment advisory and wealth management fees and to directly remit that management fee to WQC in compliance with
regulatory procedures. In the limited event that WQC bills the client directly, payment is due upon receipt of WQC’s invoice.
WQC shall deduct fees and/or bill clients quarterly in advance, based upon the market value of the assets on the last business
day of the previous quarter in accordance with the firm's portfolio management system. Any contributions made by the client
over the course of the quarter will typically result in an additional fee to WQC that is prorated to the client account (or family
of accounts) based on the timing of the contribution. Any withdrawals made by the client over the course of a quarter will
typically result in an additional credit that is prorated to the client account (or family of accounts) based on the timing of the
withdrawal and which will be applied to next quarter's fees. This will also include any increases or decreases in the valuations
of certain securities which may occur after the billing period (i.e. dividends received).
C. As discussed below, unless the client directs otherwise or an individual client’s circumstances require, WQC shall generally
recommend that Charles Schwab and Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), or similar national brokerage institution to serve as the broker-
dealer/custodian for client investment management assets. Broker-dealers such as Schwab charge brokerage commissions
and/or transaction fees for affecting certain securities transactions (i.e. transaction fees are charged for certain no-load mutual
funds, commissions are charged for options transactions). In addition to WQC’s investment management fee, brokerage
commissions and/or transaction fees, clients will also incur, relative to all mutual fund and exchange traded fund purchases,
charges imposed at the fund level (e.g. management fees and other fund expenses) and, for independent investment
managers, the fees charged by each separate manager who is engaged to manage the assets.
D. WQC’s annual investment advisory fee shall be prorated and paid quarterly, in advance, based upon the market value of the
assets on the last business day of the previous quarter in accordance with firm's portfolio management software. WQC, in its
sole discretion, may charge a lesser investment 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,
negotiations with client, etc.). Advisory fees are typically billed quarterly in advance, but clients may request, and the Firm may
