Code of Professional Conduct
CPAs are licensed and regulated by their state boards of accountancy. Experience and testing
requirements for licensure as a CPA generally include minimum college education, minimum
experience levels, and successful passage of the Uniform CPA Examination. In order to maintain a
CPA license, states generally require the completion of continuing professional education
which requires that

they act with integrity, objectivity, due care, competence, fully disclose any conflicts of interest (and
obtain client consent if a conflict exists), maintain client confidentiality, disclose to the client any
commission or referral fees, and serve the public interest when providing financial services.
CA Life, Accident & Variable Insurance License
To obtain a California Insurance License, an individual must first complete a pre-licensing
education course, which covers the basics of insurance, the legal and ethical responsibilities of an
insurance agent, and California-specific insurance laws and regulations. After completing the
course, the individual must pass a state-administered licensing exam.
Once licensed, the individual must meet certain continuing education (CE) requirements to keep
the license active. California Insurance Licensees must complete 24 hours of CE every two years,
including at least three hours in ethics training. The CE requirement is designed to ensure that
licensed individuals stay current with industry developments and maintain a high level of
professional competence.
In addition to CE requirements, California Insurance Licensees must comply with other state-
specific regulations and laws governing insurance sales, including proper disclosure of policy
terms, maintaining accurate records, and providing timely service to policyholders. Failure to
comply with these regulations can result in disciplinary action, including fines, license suspension,
or revocation.

Series 7 Exam
The Series 7 exam, also known as the General Securities Representative Exam, is a licensing exam
that financial professionals must pass to sell securities products.
To pass the Series 7 exam, financial professionals must demonstrate knowledge of a wide range of
topics related to the securities industry, including investment products, securities markets,
securities analysis, regulations, and ethical considerations. The exam is comprised of 125 multiple-
choice questions, and candidates are given 3 hours and 45 minutes to complete the exam.
The exam is administered by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and is designed
to ensure that individuals who sell securities products to retail investors have the necessary
knowledge and skills to do so competently and ethically.
To prepare for the Series 7 exam, financial professionals typically study a variety of materials,
including textbooks, online courses, and practice exams. Many also participate in training programs
provided by their employer or other organizations to help them prepare for the exam.
Series 66 Exam
The Series 66 exam is a licensing exam that financial professionals must pass to become registered
as both a securities agent and an investment advisor representative.
To pass the Series 66 exam, financial professionals must demonstrate knowledge of a range of topics
related to the securities industry and investment advising, including investment products, securities
markets, state and federal regulations, ethical considerations, and investment analysis. The exam is
comprised of 100 multiple-choice questions, and candidates are given 2 hours and 30 minutes to
complete the exam.
The exam is administered by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) in conjunction
with state securities regulators and is designed to ensure that individuals who provide investment
advice to retail investors have the necessary knowledge and skills to do so competently and ethically.
To prepare for the Series 66 exam, financial professionals typically study a variety of materials,
including textbooks, online courses, and practice exams. Many also participate in training programs
provided by their employer or other organizations to help them prepare for the exam.
It's worth noting that the Series 66 exam is often taken in conjunction with the Series 7 exam, as the
two exams together allow financial professionals to become fully registered to sell securities
products and provide investment advice to retail investors.
Item 3: Disciplinary Information1
There are no legal or disciplinary events material to the evaluation of Stephen Brickley.
1
Note: Our firm may, under certain circumstances, rebut the presumption that a disciplinary event is material. If an event is immaterial, we are not required
to disclose it. When we review a legal or disciplinary event involving the advisor to determine whether it is appropriate to rebut the presumption of materiality,
we consider all of the following factors: (1) the proximity of advisor to the advisory function; (2) the nature of the infraction that led to the disciplinary event;
(3) the severity of the disciplinary sanction; and (4) the time elapsed since the date of the disciplinary event. If we conclude that the materiality presumption
has been overcome, we prepare and maintain a file memorandum of our determination in our records. We follow SEC rule 204-2(a)(14)(iii) and similar state
rules.

Item 4: Other Business Activities
Stephen Brickley is the owner and a Certified Public Accountant with Brickley & Company CPA, Inc.
In such capacity, he may also provide income tax preparation or accounting services. These services
