The following changes occurred to the Firm’s business practices since our last annual brochure update dated March 2025. • Item 9 – Additional Information, Code of Ethics has been updated to address Allegheny’s blocked orders to trade the same security for multiple client accounts on a single day. This item has been updated to describe the impact this practice has on Allegheny’s employee trading procedures. More specifically, Allegheny has adopted procedures restricting supervised persons’ ability to personally purchase or sell a security by participating in a blocked order alongside Allegheny clients, unless the participating account is managed by Allegheny on a fully discretionary basis. Such employee “managed” accounts are treated as Allegheny client accounts and are subject to the same aggregation and allocation policies and procedures as other clients. Employee accounts that are managed by the firm do not receive preferential treatment in the trade allocation process. Other minor modifications have been made throughout the Brochure. We will provide you with a new Brochure as necessary based on changes or new information, at any time, without charge. Our Brochure may be requested by contacting us at (412) 367-3880. 2 ALLEGHENY INVESTMENTS WRAP FEE PROGRAM BROCHURE ITEM 3 - TABLE OF CONTENTS Contents ALLEGHENY INVESTMENTS WRAP FEE PROGRAM BROCHURE ...................................................... 1 ITEM 2 - MATERIAL CHANGES ......................................................................................................... 2 ITEM 3 - TABLE OF CONTENTS ........................................................................................................ 3 ITEM 4 - SERVICES, FEES AND COMPENSATION ............................................................................. 4 ITEM 5 - ACCOUNT REQUIREMENTS AND TYPES OF CLIENTS ........................................................ 8 ITEM 6 - PORTFOLIO MANAGER SELECTION AND EVALUATION .................................................... 8 ITEM 7 - CLIENT INFORMATION PROVIDED TO PORTFOLIO MANAGERS ..................................... 12 ITEM 8 - CLIENT CONTACT WITH PORTFOLIO MANAGERS ........................................................... 12 ITEM 9 - ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ........................................................................................... 12 3 ITEM 4 - SERVICES, FEES AND COMPENSATION Allegheny Investments (“Allegheny”) is a registered investment adviser which offers investment management and financial planning services to clients.

You must promptly notify our firm if your financial situation, goals, objectives, or needs change during our engagement. You have the right to impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain securities, types of securities, or industry sectors. All such restrictions must be provided to us in writing. Account supervision over investment management accounts is guided by your stated goals, objectives, risk tolerance, as well as tax considerations. We provide investment management services on both a discretionary and non-discretionary basis. COMBINED INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT & FINANCIAL PLANNING Comprehensive Portfolio Management (“PMA”) When we provide comprehensive investment management and financial planning services, we will work with you to develop a financial plan and provide you with continuous advice regarding the investment of your funds based on your individual needs. Through personal discussions in which goals and objectives based on your particular circumstances are established, we develop your personal investment strategy and create and manage a portfolio based on that strategy. During our data gathering process, we determine your individual objectives, time horizons, risk tolerance and liquidity needs. As appropriate, we also review and discuss your prior investment history, as well as family composition and background. You will receive reports reflecting the value and status of their uniquely designed portfolio. In cases where the client has selected non-discretionary management, the implementation of any or all recommendations is solely at the discretion of the client. Additionally, clients may place unsolicited trades in their account. Investment Management Services (“IMA”) Allegheny offers IMA services for clients who do not require full financial planning services but want a professionally managed portfolio and regular performance updates.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT OUR SERVICES Custodian and Brokerage Services Wrap fee program accounts are held at Fidelity Brokerage Services (“Fidelity”), a FINRA registered broker- dealer, member SIPC. Fidelity acts as custodian and executing broker-dealer for transactions placed in program accounts and provides other administrative services as described throughout this brochure. You cannot request that your orders be executed through another broker-dealer as part of the wrap fee program. You should understand that not all advisors require their clients to select a certain broker. By selecting Fidelity as the broker, you may may not receive the most favorable execution of client transactions. Therefore, this practice may cost you more money. You will be subject to separate fees and expenses charged by Fidelity. Allegheny receives support services and/or products from Fidelity, many of which assist Allegheny to better monitor and service program accounts maintained at Fidelity however, some of the services and products benefit Allegheny and not client accounts. Recommendations of Independent Managers When you engage us to provide investment management services, you will typically empower us to recommend and/or select third-party Independent Managers to manage a portion of your assets, based upon your stated investment objectives. The terms and conditions under which you engage the Independent Managers are set forth in a written agreement between Allegheny or you and each designated Independent Manager. Typically, the Independent Manager is engaged to manage the designated assets on a discretionary basis. Allegheny also monitors and reviews the account performance and your investment objectives. Allegheny receives an annual advisory fee which corresponds with the services Allegheny is engaged to provide and is based upon a percentage of the market value of the assets being managed by the designated Independent Managers. When recommending or selecting an Independent Manager for a client, Allegheny reviews information about the Independent Manager such as its disclosure statement and/or material supplied by the Independent Manager or independent third parties for a description of the Independent Manager’s investment strategies, past performance, and risk results to the extent available. Factors that Allegheny considers in recommending an Independent Manager to you include your stated investment objectives, management style, performance, reputation, financial strength, 5 reporting, pricing, and research. The advisory fees charged by the designated Independent Managers, together with the fees charged by your designated broker-dealer/custodian, are exclusive of, and in addition to, our investment advisory fee described in Item 5. As discussed above, you may incur additional fees than those charged by Allegheny, the designated Independent Managers, and corresponding broker-dealer and custodian. In addition to Allegheny’s disclosure documents, you will also receive the disclosure documents of any designated Independent Managers. Certain Independent Managers may impose more restrictive account requirements or employ different billing practices than Allegheny. In such instances, we may alter our corresponding account requirements and/or billing practices to accommodate those of an Independent Manager. Fees & Compensation In the Allegheny Investments Wrap Fee Program, clients pay us a single advisory fee for advisory services and execution of transactions. Clients do not pay brokerage commissions, markups or transaction charges for execution of transactions in addition to the advisory fee. The advisory fee is negotiable between you and Allegheny and is set out in your investment management agreement. We do not accept performance-based fees for wrap fee program accounts. The advisory fee is deducted from the account by Fidelity and paid to Allegheny based on a written authorization from the client. Allegheny calculates the advisory fee in advance and provides the debit instruction to the custodian based on the billing frequency stated in the advisory agreement; typically, semi- annually or annually. In limited circumstances, clients are invoiced for their fees. If the advisory agreement is terminated before the end of the period, client is entitled to a pro-rated refund of any pre-paid advisory fee based on the number of days remaining in the billing period after the termination date. COMBINED INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL PLANNING Comprehensive Portfolio Management (“PMA”) Our advisory fees for PMA accounts are calculated as a percentage of billable assets under management and generally billed at least semi-annually. The following are the advisory fees you will pay to Allegheny: • 1.00% on the first $2,500,000 of assets under management, per annum • 0.65% on the amount from $2,500,000 to $5,000,000 • 0.50% on the amount from $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 • 0.45% on the amount from $10,000,000 to $25,000,000 • 0.40% on the amount from $25,000,000 to $50,000,000 • 0.35% on the amount of assets over $50,000,000 Allegheny, in its sole discretion, has the right to deviate from this schedule. Your total fee may exceed the schedule above when flat or hourly fees apply. We permit existing clients to continue to be billed according to previously published ADV schedules in cases where the relationship was established under the then published ADV terms. Previously established fee schedules will be calculated differently than the schedule stated above, in accordance with that client’s investment management agreement. Allegheny retains the right to negotiate fees on a client-by- client basis. Your facts, circumstances, and needs are considered in determining the advisory fee. Allegheny considers the complexity of the relationship, amount and types of assets managed, related accounts and other factors. For the purpose of advisory fee calculations, we reserve the right to combine the advisory accounts of immediate family members or other related accounts. Allegheny and your Advisor may include additional accounts. Investment Management Fees (“IMA”) Our advisory fee for IMA accounts is calculated as a percentage of the value of billable assets under management listed on the investment management agreement and will be billed semi–annually, quarterly, or annually. With your authorization, the advisory fee will be deducted directly from your accounts by a Third- 6 Party Payor or deducted from your account and paid to Allegheny as outlined in your investment management agreement. Alternatively, you may choose to receive a bill for services provided in limited circumstances. When a Third-Party Payor deducts your fee, the advisory fee for assets on its platform will be calculated in arrears. By comparison, when your fee is deducted from your account or invoiced by Allegheny, the advisory fee for those assets will be calculated and applied in advance. Your investment management agreement contains additional information about this practice. The advisory fee for IMA accounts ranges from 0%-1% per annum. STAND-ALONE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES Streamlined Account Management Fees (“SAM”) Our advisory fee for SAM relationships is calculated as a percentage of the value of billable assets under management listed on the investment management agreement and will be billed quarterly or semi-annually in advance. With your authorization, Instructions will be provided to your custodian to deduct the advisory fees from your account as outlined in the investment management agreement. The advisory fee for SAM accounts is 0.75% per annum. WRAP FEE PROGRAM TRANSACTION CHARGES DISCLOSURE In the Allegheny Investments Wrap Fee Program, the transaction costs are borne by Allegheny. We have agreed to pay a transaction-based fee to Fidelity to cover clearing and execution services. As a result, we have a conflict of interest because we have a financial incentive to trade less frequently. In addition, because transactions charges vary by security type, there is a conflict of interest for Allegheny because we have an incentive to select securities for your Account that cost us less than other types of securities. Clients should discuss these conflicts with their advisor. In the case of mutual funds, the transaction charges vary. Funds identified in the Fidelity published directory as being subject to mutual fund transaction surcharges will be assessed a $10 mutual fund transaction surcharge on buys, sells, exchanges-round trip and share class conversions. The list of fund families and/or CUSIPs that are subject to the surcharge is subject to change by Fidelity without notice. Allegheny is responsible for paying these transaction surcharges. Therefore, we have an incentive to use funds that are not assessed the extra transaction fee. Fidelity currently has arranged for all funds in the No Transaction Fee Program (referenced with a fee status of “NTF”) in the published directory to be free of clearing charges for wrap fee program accounts. Fidelity receives compensation from the fund families based on the average daily net assets in the funds that are identified as NTF. While NTF funds have no transaction charge, they tend to have a higher expense ratio than the same fund traded with a transaction fee, and this expense ratio is borne by the client. In limited cases, Fidelity charges a transaction fee for fixed income securities (e.g., bonds). In addition, Fidelity acts as principal on fixed income security transactions and receives a mark-up/down on the transaction or applies a flat transaction fee. These charges are subject to change. Certain share classes of funds traded as part of Fidelity’s NTF Program can be purchased in non-wrap accounts without a transaction charge. In order to participate in the NTF Program, mutual funds pay Fidelity recordkeeping and/or revenue-sharing fees in the form of asset-based or transaction-based fees. A complete list of mutual fund sponsors participating in the NTF Program can be found by visiting https://fundresearch.fidelity.com/mutual-funds/fund-families-no-transaction-fee. You should understand that the cost to Allegheny of transaction charges is a factor we consider when deciding which mutual funds to select for your account(s) and whether or not to place transactions in your account(s). We have a financial incentive to select certain funds in order to reduce or eliminate the transaction charges, including but not limited to funds participating in the NTF Program. Other Types of Fees and Charges Wrap fee program accounts will incur additional fees and charges from parties other than Allegheny as noted below. These fees and charges are in addition to the advisory fee paid to Allegheny. We do not share in any 7 portion of these third-party fees. Fidelity, as the custodian and broker-dealer providing brokerage and execution services on program accounts, will impose certain fees and charges that are not part of the bundled platform fee. Fidelity notifies you of these charges at account opening. Fidelity will deduct these fees and charges, as applicable, directly from your program account(s). There are other fees and charges that are imposed by other third parties that apply to investments in program accounts. Some of these fees and charges are described below. • If your assets are invested in mutual funds or other pooled investment products, you should be aware that there will be two layers of advisory fees and expenses for those assets. You will pay an advisory fee to the fund manager and other expenses as a shareholder of the fund. You will also pay Allegheny the advisory fee with respect to those assets. Most of the mutual funds available in the program may be purchased directly. Therefore, you could generally avoid the second layer of fees by not using the management services of Allegheny and by making your own investment decisions. • Certain mutual funds impose fees and charges such as contingent deferred sales charges, early redemption fees and charges for frequent trading. These charges may apply if client transfers into or purchases such a fund with the applicable charges in a program account. • Although Allegheny requires that no-load and load-waived mutual funds be purchased in a program account when available, you should understand that some mutual funds pay asset-based sales charges or service fees (e.g., 12b-1 fees) to the custodian with respect to account holdings. • If you hold a variable annuity as part of an account, there are mortality, expense, and administrative charges, fees for additional riders on the contract, and charges for excessive transfers within a calendar year imposed by the variable annuity sponsor. • Our affiliated investment adviser, Allegheny Financial Group (“AFG”) serves as the investment advisor to certain private funds (“the Funds”). It receives advisory fees for its services, which are detailed in each Fund’s offering documents. Certain Funds also charge performance-based fees (described in Item 6). If you choose to invest in these private funds, you will pay the private fund fees; however, we do not charge an advisory fee on any such funds. Instead, we exclude those fund assets when we calculate your advisory fees. • Additional information regarding fees assessed by a mutual fund, or variable annuity is available in the appropriate prospectus, which is available upon request from Allegheny or from the product sponsor directly. Other Important Considerations • The advisory fee is an ongoing wrap fee for investment management services, the execution of transactions and other administrative and custodial services. The advisory fee may cost you more than purchasing the program services separately, for example, paying an advisory fee plus commissions for each transaction in your account. Factors that bear upon the cost of the account in relation to the cost of the same services purchased separately include the type and size of the account, historical and or expected size or number of trades for the account, and number and range of supplementary advisory and client-related services provided to you. • The advisory fee also may cost you more than if assets were held in a traditional brokerage account. In a 8 brokerage account, a client is charged a commission for each transaction, and the representative has no duty to provide ongoing advice with respect to the account. If you plan to follow a buy and hold strategy for your account or do not wish to purchase ongoing investment advice or management services, you should consider opening a brokerage account rather than a program account. • When we recommend the Program to you, we receive compensation as a result of your participation in the program. The amount of this compensation may be more or less than what we would receive if the client participated in other Allegheny programs, programs of other investment advisors or paid separately for investment advice, brokerage and other client services. Therefore, we have a financial incentive to recommend the program over other programs and services. • The investment products available to be purchased in the program can be purchased by clients outside of a program account, through broker-dealers or other investment firms not affiliated with Allegheny. ITEM 5 - ACCOUNT REQUIREMENTS AND TYPES OF CLIENTS There are no minimum account values for the Allegheny Investments Wrap Fee Program accounts. The program is available for individuals, IRAs, banks and thrift institutions, pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, state and municipal government entities, corporations and other business entities. ITEM 6 - PORTFOLIO MANAGER SELECTION AND EVALUATION In the Allegheny Investments Wrap Fee Program, Allegheny is the wrap fee program portfolio manager. Allegheny, through its associated persons, is responsible for the investment advice and management offered to clients. We require that individuals involved in determining or giving investment advice have sufficient training and experience to provide such advice, including the successful completion of industry exams and certifications. For more information about the associated person of Allegheny managing the account, refer to the Brochure Supplement for your Advisor, which you should have received along with this Brochure at the time your account was opened. Fidelity performs certain administrative services for us, including generation of quarterly statements for program accounts. Methods of Analysis and Investment Strategies We provide comprehensive portfolio management for clients who select these services. In providing these services, we provide you with continuous advice regarding the investment of your funds based on your individual needs. Through personal discussions in which goals and objectives based on your particular circumstances are established, we will develop your personal investment strategy and create and manage a portfolio based on that strategy. Your portfolio will typically and primarily be comprised of mutual fund positions, and we seek to control risk through diversification of assets and by performing ongoing monitoring of the strategy in relation to the criteria you provide to us. When we invest in mutual funds, we use original and proprietary investment research conducted by our research department and investment committee. Your Advisor may also invest your accounts in other types of securities, subject to your investment strategy and any related guidelines as determined with you during the planning process described above. These other types of securities may include, but may not be limited to, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), stocks, bonds, and in certain cases, private funds as described herein). 9 Allegheny advisors place a strong emphasis on the financial planning process. Clients who receive financial planning services generally go through the following process. Not all clients receive financial planning. A. DEFINE CLIENT OBJECTIVES. Our Allegheny Advisors ask questions and discover key client issues and concerns, based upon their extensive experience, to build a meaningful evaluation of our clients’ finances. These questions include determining risk tolerance, education needs, retirement objectives, long and short-term goals and objectives. B. DEVELOP A FINANCIAL PLAN. Allegheny Advisors analyze assets and liabilities and evaluate risk tolerances to develop a clear picture of our clients’ financial status. This enables us to build a plan to meet each client’s objectives. The financial plan may contain programs to enhance cash flow, decrease tax liabilities, enhance the funding of educational goals or a comfortable retirement, or meet a business or organization’s financial goals. Our planning tools enable Allegheny Advisors to chart detailed projections to account for factors that impact our clients’ finances and anticipate changing needs. At the end of the process, Allegheny Advisors provide a very specific set of recommendations. Clients then decide whether to implement these recommendations. C. IMPLEMENT THE FINANCIAL PLAN. Allegheny Advisors work with a team of specialists to select the most appropriate fund managers, insurance providers, and risk managers to ensure consistent portfolio performance. D. MONITOR AND REFINE THE FINANCIAL PLAN. Allegheny Advisors support our clients’ portfolio with ongoing and original research to measure performance. Allegheny Advisors report to clients through detailed reports and updates and one-on-one meetings. Risk of Loss Allegheny primarily uses mutual funds in its investment strategy. Each mutual fund, in turn, invests in various underlying securities. Allegheny may also invest directly in similar types of securities. Primary risks include, but are not limited to: General Risks Investing in securities involves the risk of loss – Depending on the different types of investments selected, there are varying degrees of risk. Prices of publicly traded securities, including mutual funds, fluctuate daily, sometimes dramatically. Furthermore, it is possible that the value of a security could become worthless. Clients should be prepared to bear this risk. Your investment in a fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency, entity, or person. If you receive our non- discretionary services, you should consider how the fund fits into your overall investment program. Allocation Risks - Investment performance in client portfolios will depend largely on Allegheny’s decisions regarding strategic asset allocation and tactical adjustments made to the asset allocation in each client’s portfolio. At times, Allegheny’s judgments as to the asset classes in which clients should invest may prove to be wrong, as some asset classes may perform worse than others or the equity markets generally from time to time or for extended periods of time. Use of Independent Managers - Allegheny is typically authorized by clients to select or recommend Independent Managers to manage a portion of client assets. We conduct due diligence of such Independent Managers, but our selections or recommendations rely to a great extent on the Independent Managers’ ability to successfully implement their investment strategies. In addition, we generally do not have the ability to supervise the Independent Managers on a day-to-day basis. As a result, there can be no assurance that every Independent Managers will invest on the basis expected by the firm. Furthermore, because Allegheny will have no control over any Independent Managers’ day-to-day operations, clients may experience losses due to the fraud, poor 10 risk management, or recklessness of the Independent Managers. Risks of Investments Investing in mutual funds: The performance of mutual funds is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of mutual funds will fluctuate with the value of the underlying securities that make up the funds. The price of a mutual fund is typically set daily therefore a mutual fund purchased at one point in the day will typically have the same price as a mutual fund purchased later that same day. Investing in exchange traded funds (ETFs): The performance of ETFs is subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal. The price of the ETFs will fluctuate with the price of the underlying securities that make up the funds. In addition, ETFs have a trading risk based on the loss of cost efficiency if the ETFs are traded actively and a liquidity risk if an ETF has a large bid-ask spread and low trading volume. The price of an ETF fluctuates based upon the market movements and may dissociate from the index being tracked by the ETF or the price of the underlying investments. An ETF purchased or sold at one point in the day may have a different price than the same ETF purchased or sold a short time later. Market conditions- The prices of, and the income generated by, the common stocks, bonds and other securities held by a fund (or directly in your account) may decline due to market conditions and other factors, including those directly involving the issuers of securities. Investing in growth-oriented stocks- Growth-oriented stocks may involve larger price swings and greater potential for loss than other types of investments. Investing in income-oriented stocks- Income provided by income-oriented stocks may be reduced by changes in the dividend policies of, and the capital resources available at, the issuers of such securities. Investing in bonds- Rising interest rates will generally cause the prices of bonds and other debt securities to fall. In addition, falling interest rates may cause an issuer to redeem, call or refinance a security before its stated maturity, which may result in the fund having to reinvest the proceeds in lower yielding securities. Longer maturity debt securities may be subject to greater price fluctuations than shorter maturity debt securities. Bonds and other debt securities are subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that the credit strength of an issuer will weaken and/or an issuer of a debt security will fail to make timely payments of principal or interest, and the security will go into default. Lower quality debt securities generally have higher rates of interest and may be subject to greater price fluctuations than higher quality debt securities. Investing in securities backed by the U.S. government- Securities backed by the U.S. government are guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury or the full faith and credit of the U.S. government are guaranteed only as to the timely payment of interest and principal when held to maturity. Accordingly, the current market values for these securities will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Securities issued by government sponsored entities and federal agencies and instrumentalities are neither issued nor guaranteed by the U.S. government. Investing in mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities- Many types of bonds and other debt securities, including mortgage-back securities, are subject to prepayment risk, as well as the risks associated with investing in debt securities in general. If interest rates fall and the loans underlying these securities are prepaid principal in lower yielding securities, thus reducing the fund’s income. Conversely, if interest rates increase and the loans underlying the securities are prepaid more slowly than expected, the expected duration of the securities may be extended. This reduces the potential for the fund (or your portfolio directly) to invest the principal in higher yielding securities. Thinly traded securities- There is little trading in the secondary market for particular bonds or other debt securities, which makes them more difficult to value or sell. 11 Investing outside the United States- Securities of issuers domiciled outside the United States, or with significant operations outside the United States, may lose value because of political, social, or economic developments in the country or region in which the issuer operates. These securities may also lose value due to changes in the exchange rate of currencies which are more volatile and/or less liquid than those in the United States. Investments outside the United States may also be subject to different settlement and accounting practices and different regulatory, legal, and reporting standards than those in the United States. These risks are heightened in connection with investments in developing countries. Management- The investment advisor to a fund actively or passively manages the fund’s investments. Consequently, the fund is subject to the risk that the methods and analyses employed by the investment adviser do not produce the desired results. This could cause the fund to lose value or its results to lag relevant benchmarks or other funds with similar objectives. Equity Market Risk- Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the investments in equity strategies. Factors such as U.S. economic growth and market conditions, interest rates, and political events affect the equity markets. Investment Selection Risk- There is no guarantee that our judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of a particular asset class or individual security are correct and that individual securities will perform as anticipated. The value of an individual security can be more volatile than the market as a whole or our intrinsic value approach may fail to produce the intended results. Our estimate of intrinsic value may be wrong or even if our estimate of intrinsic value is correct, it may take a long period of time before the price and intrinsic value converge. Investing in Private Funds - Refer to the Fund offering documents for a complete description of the investment strategies employed by Private Funds and related risks. Additional Risks Catastrophic & Market Event Risk - The value of securities may decline as a result of various catastrophic and other market events, public health emergencies, natural disasters or climate events and other economic, political, and global macro forces, such as trade wars, wars, and terrorism. Losses resulting from these events can be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on Allegheny’s business and client accounts. Cybersecurity Risk - Cyber incidents affecting Allegheny and its service providers have the ability to disrupt and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with an advisor’s ability to value its client’s securities or other investments, impediments to trading, the inability to transact business, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensation costs, or additional compliance costs. The use of artificial intelligence by the Adviser, third-party service providers, or counterparties, could amplify cybersecurity risks. Similar adverse consequences could result from cyber incidents affecting issuers of invested securities, counterparties to transactions, governmental and other regulatory authorities, exchange and other financial market operators, banks, brokers, dealers, insurance companies, and other financial institutions and other parties. In addition, substantial costs may be incurred to prevent cyber incidents in the future. While business continuity plans and risk management systems are designed to prevent and mitigate cyber incidents and other disasters, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems, including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Voting Client Securities 12 As a matter of firm policy and practice, we do not have any authority to, and do not, vote proxies on behalf of advisory clients. You retain the responsibility for receiving and voting proxies for any and all securities maintained in your portfolios. You will receive proxies or other solicitations directly from your custodian or transfer agent. We will provide you with assistance regarding proxy issues upon request ITEM 7 - CLIENT INFORMATION PROVIDED TO PORTFOLIO MANAGERS In the Allegheny Investments Wrap Fee Program, the Advisor is responsible for account management; there is no separate portfolio manager involved. The Advisor obtains the necessary financial data from the client and assists the client in setting an appropriate investment objective for the account. The Advisor obtains this information by having the client complete an advisory agreement and other documentation. Clients are encouraged to contact their Advisor if there have been any changes in the client’s financial situation or investment objectives or if they wish to impose any reasonable restrictions on the management of the account or reasonably modify existing restrictions. ITEM 8 - CLIENT CONTACT WITH PORTFOLIO MANAGERS Clients should contact their Advisor at any time with questions regarding program account. ITEM 9 - ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Disciplinary Information SEC-registered investment advisers are required, in this item, to disclose all material facts regarding any legal or disciplinary events that would be pertinent to your evaluation of Allegheny or the integrity of its employees. Allegheny does not have any material legal or disciplinary events to disclose. Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations Insurance Broker Allegheny is also a licensed insurance broker, and certain members of Allegheny management and other Allegheny Advisors are licensed insurance agents. As a result, Allegheny, and licensed insurance agents receive additional compensation for the recommendation or purchase of insurance products for Allegheny clients. Allegheny endeavors at all times to put the interests of its clients first. Clients should be aware, however, that the receipt of economic benefits by Allegheny and an Advisor who is also a licensed insurance agent creates a conflict of interest because there is an incentive for your Advisor to recommend an insurance product based on the compensation received. Please see the individual Part 2B Brochure Supplement for information concerning your Advisor. Affiliated Investment Adviser Allegheny’s affiliate, AFG, is a registered investment adviser. AFG is under common control with AI and the directors of AFG are also the directors of AI. Private Funds AFG provides investment advisory services to certain private funds (“Funds”). Some members of management are shareholders and/or general partners or managing members of the Funds. Certain advisory clients are solicited to invest in these Funds. Funds are only available to accredited investors and involve certain additional risks. General Partners and other related entities are compensated in accordance with the partnership offering documents. Other Professional Services Some Allegheny Advisors are involved in other business activities including accounting services and other professional services. Please see the individual Part 2B supplement for information concerning your Advisor. 13 Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading Allegheny has adopted a Code of Ethics for all supervised persons describing its high standard of business conduct and fiduciary duty to its clients. The Code of Ethics requires Allegheny and its supervised persons to act in clients’ best interests, abide by all applicable regulations, avoid even the appearance of insider trading, and pre-clear and report on many types of personal securities transactions, among other things. All supervised persons at Allegheny must acknowledge the terms of the Code of Ethics upon hire, annually, and as amended. Allegheny’s clients or prospective clients may request a copy of the firm's Code of Ethics by contacting Allegheny Compliance at the number listed on the cover page. In appropriate circumstances, consistent with clients’ investment objectives, Allegheny will purchase or sell or recommend the purchase or sale of securities in which Allegheny, its affiliates and/or employees, directly or indirectly, have a position of interest. Allegheny’s supervised persons are required to follow Allegheny’s Code of Ethics. Subject to satisfying this policy and applicable laws, officers, directors and employees of Allegheny and its affiliates trade for their own accounts in securities and investments which are recommended to and/or purchased for Allegheny’s clients. Additionally, supervised persons may not personally purchase or sell a security by participating in a blocked order alongside Allegheny clients, unless the participating employee account is managed by Allegheny on a fully discretionary basis. Such employee “managed” accounts are treated as Allegheny client accounts and are subject to the same aggregation and allocation policies and procedures as other clients. Employee accounts that are managed by the firm do not receive preferential treatment in the trade allocation process. The Code of Ethics is designed to assure that the personal securities transactions, activities and interests of the employees of Allegheny will not interfere with (i) making decisions in the best interest of advisory clients and (ii) implementing such decisions while, at the same time, allowing employees to invest for their own accounts. The Code of Ethics permits employees to invest in the same securities as clients, and while there is a possibility that employees might benefit from market activity by a client in a security held by an employee, employee trading is monitored under the Code of Ethics to reasonably prevent conflicts of interest between Allegheny and its clients. Review of Accounts Your Advisor will monitor your investment management accounts ongoing, in conjunction with our compliance team. Advisors typically contact PMA clients at least semi-annually and offer to schedule meetings with clients at least annually to review account performance and discuss any changes in client finances, financial goals, or profile. Allegheny relies in part on technology but also reviews and audits other information. The frequency of review meetings with other investment management clients is determined between the Advisor and each client. Each financial plan or report is reviewed by at least one Allegheny Advisor in addition to the Advisor preparing the plan. We typically provide reports to clients annually; however, the frequency and content of reports provided may differ as determined by you with your Advisor and indicated in your investment management agreement. Allegheny Advisors and home office personnel are available during normal business hours to answer questions or other inquiries you may have. Client Referrals and Other Compensation We do not accept or allow supervised persons to accept any form of compensation, including cash, sales awards, or other prizes, from a non-client in conjunction with the advisory services we provide to our clients. From time to time, Allegheny may compensate others for client referrals. When compensating others, Allegheny will follow the requirements of Rule 206(4)-1 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and any corresponding securities law requirements. At the time of the referral Allegheny will disclose the nature of the relationship. Promoter arrangements will not result in any additional fees to clients. 14 15
