The majority owners of the firm are Scott Smith and Gregory Staub. This disclosure brochure describes the business of PSICM. Certain sections will also describe the activities of Supervised Persons. Supervised Persons are any of PSICM's officers, partners, directors (or other persons occupying a similar status or performing similar functions), or employees, or any other person who provides investment advice on PSICM's behalf and is subject to PSICM's supervision or control. The PSI Capital Management Wrap Program (the "Program") is an investment advisory program sponsored by PSICM. The Program provides clients with the ability to trade in certain investment products without incurring separate brokerage commissions or transaction charges. The Program no longer accepts new clients, only legacy clients who previously engaged PSICM for this service continue to be serviced under the wrap program. After an analysis of any information provided by the client to PSICM, PSICM assists the client in developing an appropriate investment strategy for the assets in their accounts. Thereafter, all clients are encouraged to discuss their needs, goals, and objectives with PSICM and to keep PSICM informed of any changes thereto. PSICM contacts ongoing clients at least quarterly to review its previous services and/or recommendations and to determine whether changes should be made to their investment strategy. In addition, clients participating in the Wrap program are offered a financial planning process that analyzes the client's financial needs, investment objectives and time horizon, as well as any other factors relevant to the client's specific financial situation. The creation and annual updating of this plan is included as part of the Wrap program. Management of Your Portfolio All clients in the Program grant PSICM either discretionary or non-discretionary authority to buy, sell, and otherwise trade in the type of securities described in Item 6, below for their accounts and to liquidate previously-purchased securities that the client has transferred to their Accounts. Assets are managed by one of PSICM's investment adviser representatives. Neither PSICM nor the client may assign the Agreement without the consent of the other party. Transactions that do not result in a change of actual control or management of PSICM are not considered an assignment. Fees for the Program Clients in the Program pay a single annualized fee for participation in the Program (the "Program Fee"). The Program Fee is prorated and charged quarterly, in advance, based upon the market value of the assets being managed by PSICM under the Program on the last day of the previous quarter. Alternatively we may bill in arrears, payable quarterly, and based on the value of your account on the last trading day of each calendar quarter. If the investment management agreement is executed at any time other than the first day of a calendar quarter, our fees will apply on a pro rata basis, which means 4 that the advisory fee is payable in proportion to the number of days in the quarter for which you are a client. The Program Fee varies depending upon the market value of the assets under management of the client and the type of investment management services, as follows: PORTFOLIO VALUE $200,000 to $499,999 $500,000 to $999,999 $1,000,000 and above BASE FEE 1.50% 1.25% 1.00% PSICM, in its sole discretion, may negotiate to charge a lesser Program 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.) Fee Comparison Under the Program, clients receive both investment advisory services and the execution of transactions for a single, combined annualized fee, the Program Fee. Participation in the Program may cost the client more or less than purchasing such services separately. The number of transactions made in the client's accounts, as well as the commissions that would be charged for each transaction, determines the relative cost of the Program versus paying for execution on a per transaction basis and paying a separate fee for advisory services. The Program Fee may be higher or lower than fees charged by other sponsors of comparable investment advisory programs. We deduct our fee directly from your account through the qualified custodian holding your funds and securities, then we will deduct our advisory fee only when the following requirements are met: • You provide our firm with written authorization permitting the fees to be paid directly from your account held by the qualified custodian. • We send you a fee statement showing the amount of the fee, the value of the assets on which the fee is based, and the specific manner in which the fee was calculated. • The qualified custodian agrees to send you a statement, at least quarterly, indicating all amounts dispersed from your account including the amount of the advisory fee paid directly to our firm. We encourage you to reconcile our fee statement with the statement(s) you receive from the qualified custodian. If you find any inconsistent information between our fee statement and the statement(s) you receive from the qualified custodian, please call our main office number located on the cover page of this brochure. Termination of Advisory Relationship You may terminate the wrap fee program agreement upon 30-days' written notice to our firm. You will incur a pro rata charge for services rendered prior to the termination of the wrap fee program agreement, which means you will incur advisory fees only in proportion to the number of days in the quarter for which you are a client. If termination of Advisory Relationship occurs within the first 90 days following the initial engagement date, any costs incurred to establish or change the account portfolio will be deducted from the pro-rated refund. If you have pre-paid advisory fees that we have not yet earned, you will receive a prorated refund of those fees. 5 Upon termination of accounts held at Schwab, they will deliver securities and funds held in the account per your instructions unless you request that the account be liquidated. After the wrap fee program agreement has been terminated, transactions are processed at the prevailing brokerage rates/fees. You become responsible for monitoring your own assets and our firm has no further obligation to act upon or to provide advice with respect to those assets. Wrap Fee Program Disclosures • • The benefits under a wrap fee program depend, in part, upon the size of the Account, the management fee charged, and the number of transactions likely to be generated in the Account. For example, a wrap fee program may not be suitable for Accounts with little trading activity. In order to evaluate whether a wrap fee program is suitable for you, you should compare the Program Fee and any other costs of the Program with the amounts that would be charged by other advisers, broker-dealers, and custodians, for advisory fees, brokerage and other execution costs, and custodial services comparable to those provided under the Program. In considering the investment programs described in this brochure, you should be aware that participating in a wrap fee program may cost more or less than the cost of purchasing advisory, brokerage, and custodial services separately from other advisers or broker-dealers. • Our firm and Associated Persons receive compensation as a result of your participation in the Program. This compensation may be more than the amount our firm or the Associated Persons would receive if you paid separately for investment advice, brokerage, and other services. Accordingly, a conflict of interest exists because our firm and our Associated Persons have a financial incentive to recommend the Program. • Similar advisory services may be available from other registered investment advisers for lower fees. Additional Fees And Expenses The Program Fee includes the costs of brokerage commissions for transactions executed through the Qualified Custodian (or a broker-dealer designated by the Qualified Custodian), and charges relating to the settlement, clearance, or custody of securities in the Account. The Program Fee does not include mark-ups and mark-downs, dealer spreads or other costs associated with the purchase or sale of securities, interest, taxes, or other costs, such as national securities exchange fees, charges for transactions not executed through the Qualified Custodian, costs associated with exchanging currencies, wire transfer fees, or other fees required by law or imposed by third parties. The Account will be responsible for these additional fees and expenses. The wrap program fees that you pay to our firm for portfolio management services are separate and distinct from the fees and expenses charged by mutual funds or exchange traded funds (described in each fund's prospectus) to their shareholders. These fees will generally include a management fee and other fund expenses. To fully understand the total cost you will incur, you should review all the fees charged by mutual funds, exchange traded funds, our firm, and others. 6 Brokerage Practices If you participate in the Program, you will be required to establish an account with Schwab as discussed above. Economic Benefits/Soft Dollars As a registered investment adviser, we have access to the institutional platform of your account custodian. As such, we will also have access to research products and services from your account custodian and/or other brokerage firm. These products are in addition to any benefits or research we pay for with soft dollars, and may include financial publications, information about particular companies and industries, research software, and other products or services that provide lawful and appropriate assistance to our firm in the performance of our investment decision-making responsibilities. Such research products and services are provided to all investment advisers that utilize the institutional services platforms of these firms, and are not considered to be paid for with soft dollars. However, you should be aware that the commissions charged by a particular broker for a particular transaction or set of transactions may be greater than the amounts another broker who did not provide research services or products might charge. For Schwab Accounts The custodian and brokers we use We do not maintain custody of your assets that we manage; although we may be deemed to have custody of your assets if you give us authority to withdraw assets from your account. Your assets must be maintained in an account at a "qualified custodian," generally a broker-dealer or bank. We recommend that our clients use Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), a registered broker-dealer, member SIPC, as the qualified custodian. We are independently owned and operated and are not affiliated with Schwab. Schwab will hold your assets in a brokerage account and buy and sell securities when we instruct them to. While we recommend that you use Schwab as custodian/broker, you will decide whether to do so and will open your account with Schwab by entering into an account agreement directly with them. Conflicts of interest associated with this arrangement are described below as well as in Item 9 (Additional Information/Client Referrals and Other Compensation). You should consider these conflicts of interest when selecting your custodian. 7 We do not open the account for you, although we may assist you in doing so. Not all advisors require their clients to use a particular broker-dealer or other custodian selected by the advisor. Even though your account is maintained at Schwab, and we anticipate that most trades will be executed through Schwab, we can still use other brokers to execute trades for your account as described below (see "Your brokerage and custody costs"). How we select brokers/custodians We seek to recommend Schwab, a custodian/broker that will hold your assets and execute transactions. When considering whether the terms that Schwab provides are, overall, most advantageous to you when compared with other available providers and their services, we take into account a wide range of factors, including: • Combination of transaction execution services and asset custody services (generally without a separate fee for custody) • Capability to execute, clear, and settle trades (buy and sell securities for your account) • Capability to facilitate transfers and payments to and from accounts (wire transfers, check requests, bill payment, etc.) • Breadth of available investment products (stocks, bonds, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds [ETFs], etc.) • Availability of investment research and tools that assist us in making investment decisions • Quality of services • Competitiveness of the price of those services (commission rates, margin interest rates, other fees, etc.) and willingness to negotiate the prices • Reputation, financial strength, security and stability • Prior service to us and our clients • Services delivered or paid for by Schwab • Availability of other products and services that benefit us, as discussed below (see "Products and services available to us from Schwab") Your brokerage and custody costs For our clients' accounts that Schwab maintains, Schwab generally does not charge you separately for custody services but is compensated by charging you commissions or other fees on trades that it executes or that settle into your Schwab account. Certain trades (for example, many mutual funds and ETFs) may not incur Schwab commissions or transaction fees. Schwab is also compensated by earning interest on the un-invested cash in your account in Schwab's Cash Features Program. Schwab has eliminated commissions for online trades of equities, ETFs and options (subject to $0.65 per contract fee). This means that, in most cases, when we buy and sell these types of securities, we will not have to pay any commissions to Schwab. We encourage you to review Schwab's pricing to compare the total costs of entering into a wrap fee arrangement versus a non-wrap fee arrangement. If you choose to enter into a wrap fee arrangement, your total cost to invest could exceed the cost of paying for brokerage and advisory services separately. To see what you would pay for transactions in a non-wrap account please refer to Schwab's most recent pricing schedules available at schwab.com/aspricingguide. We do not charge our clients higher advisory fees for our non-wrap accounts based on their trading activity, but you should be aware that we may have an incentive to limit our trading activities in your account(s) because we are charged for executed trades. We are not required to select the broker or dealer that charges the lowest transaction cost, even if that broker provides execution quality comparable to other brokers or dealers. 8 Although we are not required to execute all trades through Schwab, we have determined that having Schwab execute most trades is consistent with our duty to seek "best execution" of your trades. Best execution means the most favorable terms for a transaction based on all relevant factors, including those listed above (see "How we select brokers/custodians"). By using another broker or dealer you may pay lower transaction costs. Products and services available to us from Schwab Schwab Advisor Services™ (formally called Schwab Institutional) is Schwab's business serving independent investment advisory firms like us. They provide us and our clients with access to their institutional brokerage services (trading, custody, reporting, and related services), many of which are not typically available to Schwab retail customers. However, certain retail investors may be able to get institutional brokerage services from Schwab without going through us. Schwab also makes available various support services. Some of those services help us manage or administer our clients' accounts; while others help us manage and grow our business. Schwab's support services are generally available on an unsolicited basis (we don't have to request them) and at no charge to us. Following is a more detailed description of Schwab's support services: Services that benefit you. Schwab's institutional brokerage services include access to a broad range of investment products, execution of securities transactions, and custody of client assets. The investment products available through Schwab include some to which we might not otherwise have access or that would require a significantly higher minimum initial investment by our clients. Schwab's services described in this paragraph generally benefit you and your account. Services that do not directly benefit you. Schwab also makes available to us other products and services that benefit us but do not directly benefit you or your account. These products and services assist us in managing and administering our clients' accounts and operating our firm. They include investment research, both Schwab's own and that of third parties. We use this research to service all or a substantial number of our clients' accounts, including accounts not maintained at Schwab. In addition to investment research, Schwab also makes available software and other technology that: • Provide access to client account data (such as duplicate trade confirmations and account statements) • Facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts • Provide pricing and other market data • Facilitate payment of our fees from our clients' accounts • Assist with back-office functions, recordkeeping, and client reporting Services that generally benefit only us. Schwab also offers other services intended to help us manage and further develop our business enterprise. These services include: • Educational conferences and events • Consulting on technology and business needs • Consulting on legal and related compliance needs • Publications and conferences on practice management and business succession • Access to employee benefits providers, human capital consultants, and insurance providers • Marketing consulting and support 9 Schwab provides some of these services itself. In other cases, it will arrange for third-party vendors to provide the services to us. Schwab also discounts or waives its fees for some of these services or pays all or a part of a third party's fees. Schwab also provides us with other benefits, such as occasional business entertainment of our personnel. If you did not maintain your account with Schwab, we would be required to pay for these services from our own resources. Our Interest in Schwab's Services The availability of these services from Schwab benefits us because we do not have to produce or purchase them. We don't have to pay for Schwab's services. The fact that we receive these benefits from Schwab is an incentive for us to recommend the use of Schwab rather than making such a decision based exclusively on your interest in receiving the best value in custody services and the most favorable execution of your transactions. This is a conflict of interest. We believe, however, that taken in the aggregate, our recommendation of Schwab as custodian and broker is in the best interests of our clients. Our selection is primarily supported by the scope, quality, and price of Schwab's services (see "How we select brokers/ custodians") and not Schwab's services that benefit only us. Brokerage for Client Referrals We do not receive client referrals from broker-dealers in exchange for cash or other compensation, such as brokerage services or research. Item 5 Account Requirements and Types of Clients The Program participants include individuals, pension and profit sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations and business entities. The Wrap Fee program no longer accepts new clients, only legacy clients who previously engaged PSICM for this service continue to be serviced under the wrap program. Item 6 Portfolio Manager Selection and Evaluation We are the sponsor and sole portfolio manager for the Program. Performance-Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management We do not accept performance-based fees or participate in side-by-side management. Performance- based fees are fees that are based on a share of capital gains or capital appreciation of a client's account. Side-by-side management refers to the practice of managing accounts that are charged performance-based fees while at the same time managing accounts that are not charged performance- based fees. Our fees are calculated as described above, and are not charged on the basis of a share of capital gains upon, or capital appreciation of, the funds in your advisory account. Methods of Analysis PSICM's primary method of analysis is Modern Portfolio Theory. Modern Portfolio Theory is a theory on how risk-averse investors can construct portfolios to optimize or maximize expected return based on a given level of market risk, emphasizing that risk is an inherent part of higher reward. Modern Portfolio Theory seeks to construct an optimal portfolio by considering the relationship between risk and return, especially as measured by alpha, beta, and R-squared. The primary risk in using Modern Portfolio Theory is that spotting historical trends may not help to predict such trends in the future. Even if the trend will eventually reoccur, there is no guarantee that PSICM will be able to accurately predict such a reoccurrence. 10 Investment Strategies In developing an investment strategy for clients, PSICM employs a four-part strategy. • Establish Goals and Expectations: PSICM begins the process by meeting with clients, including gathering statements and documents as well as a thorough discussion about the client's needs, goals, and objectives. • Analyze and Evaluate: PSICM then analyzes a client's assets and liabilities, cash flow, debt management, investment strategies, risk management, and consideration of any special needs. Perhaps more importantly, it also includes less tangible aspects such as considering clients' risk tolerance, goals, values and priorities. • Develop and Implement: During this phase, PSICM prepares a financial plan that is commensurate with clients' values, temperament and risk tolerance. PSICM takes the time to carefully review and explain each plan with the client so the client fully understands the overall financial picture. When implementing the plan, PSICM often works closely with clients' other financial professionals, including accountants, attorneys, mortgage brokers, and insurance agents. • Ongoing Monitoring: PSICM believes that implementation of a financial plan is only the beginning. As relevant tax law changes, economic developments, and personal circumstances change, PSICM continues the process of advising and counseling clients. In developing client portfolios, PSICM primarily utilizes mutual funds, but may incorporate other types of securities. PSICM tailors its portfolios based on the individual needs of the client, and as such, certain client portfolios may hold additional types of securities. Mutual Funds and Exchange Traded Funds: Mutual funds and exchange traded funds ("ETF") are professionally managed collective investment systems that pool money from many investors and invest in stocks, bonds, short-term money market instruments, other mutual funds, other securities, or any combination thereof. The fund will have a manager that trades the fund's investments in accordance with the fund's investment objective. While mutual funds and ETFs generally provide diversification, risks can be significantly increased if the fund is concentrated in a particular sector of the market, primarily invests in small cap or speculative companies, uses leverage (i.e., borrows money) to a significant degree, or concentrates in a particular type of security (i.e., equities) rather than balancing the fund with different types of securities. ETFs differ from mutual funds since they can be bought and sold throughout the day like stock and their price can fluctuate throughout the day. The returns on mutual funds and ETFs can be reduced by the costs to manage the funds. Also, while some mutual funds are "no load" and charge no fee to buy into, or sell out of, the fund, other types of mutual funds do charge such fees which can also reduce returns. Mutual funds can also be "closed end" or "open end". So-called "open end" mutual funds continue to allow in new investors indefinitely whereas "closed end" funds have a fixed number of shares to sell which can limit their availability to new investors. ETFs may have tracking error risks. For example, the ETF investment adviser may not be able to cause the ETF's performance to match that of its Underlying Index or other benchmark, which may negatively affect the ETF's performance. In addition, for leveraged and inverse ETFs that seek to track the performance of their Underlying Indices or benchmarks on a daily basis, mathematical compounding may prevent the ETF from correlating with performance of its benchmark. In addition, an ETF may not have investment exposure to all of the securities included in its Underlying Index, or its weighting of investment exposure to such 11 securities may vary from that of the Underlying Index. Some ETFs may invest in securities or financial instruments that are not included in the Underlying Index, but which are expected to yield similar performance. Derivatives: Derivatives are types of investments where the investor does not own the underlying asset. There are many different types of derivative instruments, including, but not limited to, options, swaps, futures, and forward contracts. Derivatives have numerous uses as well as various risks associated with them, but they are generally considered an alternative way to participate in the market. Investors typically use derivatives for three reasons: to hedge a position, to increase leverage, or to speculate on an asset's movement. The key to making a sound investment is to fully understand the characteristics and risks associated with the derivative, including, but not limited to counter-party, underlying asset, price, and expiration risks. The use of a derivative only makes sense if the investor is fully aware of the risks and understands the impact of the investment within a portfolio strategy. Due to the variety of available derivatives and the range of potential risks, a detailed explanation of derivatives is beyond the scope of this disclosure. Market Risks The profitability of a significant portion of PSICM's recommendations may depend to a great extent upon correctly assessing the future course of price movements of stocks and bonds. There can be no assurance that PSICM will be able to predict those price movements accurately. Tax Considerations Our strategies and investments may have unique and significant tax implications. However, unless we specifically agree otherwise, and in writing, tax efficiency is not our primary consideration in the management of your assets. Regardless of your account size or any other factors, we strongly recommend that you consult with a tax professional regarding the investing of your assets. Moreover, as a result of revised IRS regulations, custodians and broker-dealers will begin reporting the cost basis of equities acquired in client accounts on or after January 1, 2011. Your custodian will default to the FIFO (First-In First-Out) accounting method for calculating the cost basis of your investments. You are responsible for contacting your tax advisor to determine if this accounting method is the right choice for you. If your tax advisor believes another accounting method is more advantageous, please provide written notice to our firm immediately and we will alert your account custodian of your individually selected accounting method. Please note that decisions about cost basis accounting methods will need to be made before trades settle, as the cost basis method cannot be changed after settlement. Risk of Loss Investing in securities involves the risk of loss. Clients should be prepared to bear such loss. Proxy Voting We will not vote proxies on behalf of your advisory accounts. At your request, we may offer you advice regarding corporate actions and the exercise of your proxy voting rights. If you own shares of applicable securities, you are responsible for exercising your right to vote as a shareholder. In most cases, you will receive proxy materials directly from the account custodian. However, in the event we were to receive any written or electronic proxy materials, we would forward them directly to you by mail, unless you have authorized our firm to contact you by electronic mail, in which case, we would forward any electronic solicitation to vote proxies. 12 Item 7 Client Information Provided to Portfolio Managers As required, in order to provide the Program services, we will provide your private information to your account custodian, Schwab. We may also provide your private information to mutual fund companies and/or private managers. We will only share the information necessary in order to carry out our obligations to you in servicing your account. We share your personal account data in accordance with our privacy policy as described below. Privacy Policy We view protecting your private information as a top priority. Pursuant to applicable privacy requirements, we have instituted policies and procedures to ensure that we keep your personal information private and secure. We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about you to any nonaffiliated third parties, except as permitted by law. In the course of servicing your account, we may share some information with our service providers, such as transfer agents, custodians, broker-dealers, insurance agencies and insurance companies, accountants, consultants, and attorneys. We restrict internal access to nonpublic personal information about you to employees, who need that information in order to provide products or services to you. We maintain physical and procedural safeguards that comply with regulatory standards to guard your nonpublic personal information and to ensure our integrity and confidentiality. We will not sell information about you or your accounts to anyone. We do not share your information unless it is required to process a transaction, at your request, or required by law. You will receive a copy of our privacy notice prior to or at the time you sign an advisory agreement with our firm. Thereafter, we will deliver a copy of the current privacy policy notice to you on an annual basis. Please contact our main office at the telephone number on the cover page of this brochure if you have any questions regarding this policy. Item 8 Client Contact with Portfolio Managers Without restriction, you should contact our firm or your advisory representative directly with any questions regarding your Program account. Item 9 Additional Information Disciplinary Information We are required to disclose the facts of any legal or disciplinary events that are material to a client's evaluation of our advisory business or the integrity of our management. We do not have any required disclosures under this item. Code of Ethics PSICM and persons associated with PSICM ("Associated Persons") are permitted to buy or sell securities that it also recommends to clients consistent with PSICM's policies and procedures. PSICM has adopted a code of ethics ("Code of Ethics") made up of its personal securities transaction and insider trading policies and procedures. When PSICM is purchasing or considering for purchase any security on behalf of a client, no Covered Person(as defined below) may effect a transaction in that security prior to the completion of the purchase or until a decision has been made not to purchase 13 such security. Similarly, when PSICM is selling or considering the sale of any security on behalf of a client, no Covered Person may effect a transaction in that security prior to the completion of the sale or until a decision has been made not to sell such security. Unless specifically defined in PSICM's procedures (summarized above), neither PSICM nor any of PSICM's Associated Persons may effect for himself or herself, for an Associated Person's immediate family (i.e., spouse, minor children, and adults living in the same household as the Associated Person), or for trusts for which the Associated Person serves as a trustee or in which the Associated Person has a beneficial interest (collectively "Covered Persons"), any transactions in a security which is being actively purchased or sold, or is being considered for purchase or sale, on behalf of any of PSICM's clients. The foregoing policies and procedures are not applicable to (a) transactions effected in any account over which neither PSICM nor any of its Supervised Persons(as defined in this Form ADV) has any direct or indirect influence or control; and (b) transactions in securities that are: direct obligations of the government of the United States; bankers' acceptances, bank certificates of deposit, commercial paper, and high quality short-term debt instruments, including repurchase agreements; or shares issued by registered open-end investment companies. This policy has been established recognizing that some securities being considered for purchase and sale on behalf of PSICM's clients trade in sufficiently broad markets to permit transactions by clients to be completed without any appreciable impact on the markets of such securities. Under certain limited circumstances, exceptions may be made to the policies stated above. PSICM will maintain records of these trades, including the reasons for any exceptions. In accordance with Section 204A of the Advisers Act, PSICM also maintains and enforces written policies reasonably designed to prevent the unlawful use of material non-public information by PSICM or any of its Supervised Persons. Clients and prospective clients may contact PSICM to request a copy of its Code of Ethics. Participation or Interest in Client Transactions Neither our firm nor any of our Associated Persons has any material financial interest in client transactions beyond the provision of investment advisory services as disclosed in this brochure. Personal Trading Practices Our firm or persons associated with our firm may buy or sell the same securities that we recommend to you or securities in which you are already invested. A conflict of interest exists in such cases because we have the ability to trade ahead of you and potentially receive more favorable prices than you will receive. To mitigate this conflict of interest, it is our policy that neither our firm nor persons associated with our firm shall have priority over your account in the purchase or sale of securities. Review of Accounts and General Reports PSICM monitors assets as part of an ongoing process while regular account reviews are conducted on at least a quarterly basis. Clients are provided with transaction confirmation notices and regular summary account statements directly from the Financial Institutions for assets. Participants also receive a report from PSICM that may include such relevant account and/or market-related information such as an inventory of account holdings and a fee deduction statement (invoice) The frequency clients receive these reports depends on the nature of the relationship with PSICM. Clients should compare the account statements they receive from the Financial Institution with those they receive from PSICM. 14 Client Referrals and Other Compensation PSI Capital Management may compensate consultants, individuals, and/or entities (Solicitors) for client referrals. In order to receive a cash referral fee from our firm, Solicitors must comply with the requirements of the jurisdictions in which they operate. If a client were referred to PSI Capital Management by a Solicitor, the client would receive a copy of this Disclosure Brochure along with the Solicitor's disclosure statement at the time of the referral. If an individual becomes a client, the Solicitor that referred such client to PSI Capital Management will receive a percentage of the advisory fee paid to PSI Capital Management for as long the client remains with Planning, or until such time as the Planning agreement with the Solicitor is terminated. Client will not pay additional fees because of this referral arrangement. Referral fees paid to a Solicitor are contingent upon client entering into an advisory agreement with PSI Capital Management. Therefore, a Solicitor has a financial incentive to recommend PSI Capital Management to individuals for advisory services. This creates a conflict of interest; however, individuals are not obligated to retain PSI Capital Management for advisory services. Comparable services and/or lower fees may be available through other firms. Please refer to the Brokerage Practices section above for disclosures on research and other benefits we may receive resulting from our relationship with Schwab. Block Trades We may combine multiple orders for shares of the same securities purchased for advisory accounts we manage (this practice is commonly referred to as "block trading"). We will then distribute a portion of the shares to participating accounts in a fair and equitable manner. The distribution of the shares purchased is typically proportionate to the size of the account, but it is not based on account performance or the amount or structure of management fees. Subject to our discretion regarding factual and market conditions, when we combine orders, each participating account pays an average price per share for all transactions and pays a proportionate share of all transaction costs. Accounts owned by our firm or persons associated with our firm may participate in block trading with your accounts; however, they will not be given preferential treatment. Financial Information We are not required to provide a balance sheet or other financial information to our clients, because we do not require the prepayment of fees in excess of $1,200 and six months or more in advance; we do not take custody of client funds or securities; and, we do not have a financial condition that is reasonably likely to impair our ability to meet our commitments to you. Moreover, we have never been the subject of a bankruptcy petition. Trade Errors In the event a trading error occurs in your account, our policy is to restore your account to the position it should have been in had the trading error not occurred. Depending on the circumstances, corrective actions may include canceling the trade, adjusting an allocation, and/or reimbursing the account. If a trade error results in a profit, please refer to the following policies: For accounts custodied at Schwab, if an investment gain results from the correcting trade, the gain will remain in your account unless the same error involved other client account(s) that should have received the gain, it is not permissible for you to retain the gain, or we confer with you and you decide to forego the gain (e.g., due to tax reasons). If the gain does not remain in your account and Schwab is the custodian, Schwab will donate the amount of any gain $100 and over to charity. If a loss occurs greater than $100, Advisor will pay for the loss. Schwab will maintain the loss or gain (if such gain is not retained in your account) if it is under $100 to minimize and offset its administrative time and expense. Generally, if related trade errors result in both gains and losses in your account, they may be netted. 15 Class Action Lawsuits We do not determine if securities held by you are the subject of a class action lawsuit. Moreover, we do not determine whether you are eligible to participate in class action settlements or litigation nor do we initiate or participate in litigation to recover damages on your behalf. Item 10 Requirements for State-Registered Advisers We are a federally registered investment adviser; therefore, we are not required to respond to this item. 16
