C. Client Services and Client Imposed Restrictions
CHP offers services to its clients as applicable and in accordance with the client’s needs
and requests. However, specific client recommendations and their implementation are
dependent upon the client’s objectives as outlined in the Investment Policy Statement
and is used to prepare an investment strategy and the selection of a portfolio that
matches clients investment objectives, risk tolerance and time horizon.
Clients may impose restrictions over holding or investing in certain securities or types of
securities in accordance with their needs, values or beliefs. However, if the restrictions
prevent CHP from properly servicing the client account, or if the restrictions would
require CHP to significantly deviate from its services, CHP reserves the right to end the
relationship.
D. Wrap Fee Programs
A wrap fee program is an investment program where the investor pays one stated fee
that includes management fees, transaction costs, fund expenses, and any other
administrative fees. CHP does not directly participate in any wrap fee programs. CHP
reserves the right in the future to direct a portion of a client’s portfolio to such programs.

Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025
3
selected funds or other investment positions. This fee may also be calculated on the
value of other securities that the client directs to be held, when the total value of the
other securities does not exceed approximately 25 percent of total Account value. The
other securities will be taken into consideration when managing accounts under the
PAM.

Fees are paid quarterly in advance, and clients may terminate their participation in the
PAM upon providing written notice. Fees are withdrawn directly from the client’s
accounts with client written authorization.
Refunds are given on a prorated basis, based on the number of days remaining in a
quarter at the point of termination. Fees that are collected in advance will be refunded
based on the prorated amount of work completed up to the day of termination within
the quarter terminated. The fee refunded will be the balance of the fees collected in
advance minus the daily rate* times the number of days in the quarter up to and
including the day of termination. (*The daily rate is calculated by dividing the quarterly
AUM fee by the number of days in the termination quarter). Clients may terminate their
contracts without penalty, for full refund, within 5 business days of signing the advisory
contract.
Financial Counseling Fees
Depending upon the complexity of the situation and the needs of the client, the rate for
client financial planning is between $5,000 and $50,000. Fees are paid in advance, but not
more than six months in advance. Fees that are charged in advance will be refunded
based on the prorated amount of work completed at the point of termination. The fees
are negotiable and the final fee schedule will be attached as Exhibit II of the Financial
Counseling Agreement. Clients may terminate their contracts without penalty within
five business days of signing the advisory contract.
The fee refunded will be the balance of the fees collected in advance minus the number
of days of work completed relative to the timeframe of the agreement.
B. Payment of Fees
Payment of Investment Advisory Fees
Advisory fees are withdrawn directly from the client’s accounts with client written
authorization. Fees are paid quarterly in advance.
Advisory fees may also be invoiced and billed directly to the client quarterly in advance.
Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025

Payment of Financial Counseling Fees
Financial Counseling fees are paid in advance, but never solicited or paid six months or
more in advance. Fees that are charged in advance will be refunded based on the
prorated amount of work completed at the point of termination.
C. Clients Are Responsible For Third Party Fees
Clients are responsible for the payment of all third party fees (i.e. custodian fees,
brokerage fees, mutual fund fees, transaction fees, etc.). Those fees are separate and
distinct from the fees and expenses charged by CHP. Please see Item 12 of this brochure
regarding broker/custodian.
D. Prepayment of Fees
CHP collects fees in advance. Fees that are collected in advance will be refunded based
on the prorated amount of work completed at the point of termination and the total days
during the billing period. Financial Counseling Fees will be refunded within fourteen
days, or as soon as administratively possible. Investment Advisory Fees will be
refunded within fourteen days, or as soon as administratively possible.
The fee refunded will be the balance of the fees collected in advance minus the daily
rate* times the number of days in the quarter up to and including the day of termination.
(*The daily rate is calculated by dividing the quarterly AUM fee by the number of days
in the termination quarter).
E. Outside Compensation For the Sale of Securities to Clients
Neither CHP nor its supervised persons accept any compensation for the sale of
securities or other investment products, including asset-based sales charges or service
fees from the sale of mutual funds.
Item 6: Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
CHP does not accept performance-based fees or other fees based on a share of capital gains on
or capital appreciation of the assets of a client.
Item 7: Types of Clients
CHP generally provides investment advice and/or management supervisory services to the
following types of clients:
Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025
5
❖ Individuals
❖ High-Net-Worth Individuals
❖ Pension and Profit Sharing Plans
Minimum Account Size
The minimum account size for the PAM is $100,000, which may be waived by the investment
advisor, based on the needs of the client and the complexity of the situation.
The minimum fee for Financial Counseling is $5,000, which may be waived by the investment
advisor, based on the needs of the client and the complexity of the situation.
Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, and Risk of
Investment Loss
A. Methods of Analysis and Investment Strategies
Methods of Analysis
CHP’s methods of analysis include fundamental analysis and technical analysis.
Fundamental analysis involves the analysis of financial statements, the general financial
health of companies, and/or the analysis of management or competitive advantages.
Technical analysis involves the analysis of past market data; primarily price and
volume.
Investment Strategies
CHP will execute your portfolio strategy in accordance with the guidelines outlined in a
clients Investment Policy Statement. To the extent directed by a client, CHP may also
use short term trading, margin transactions, and options writing (including covered
options, uncovered options, or spreading strategies).
Investing in securities involves a risk of loss that you, as a client, should be prepared
to bear.
B. Material Risks Involved
Methods of Analysis
Fundamental analysis concentrates on factors that determine a company’s value and
expected future earnings. This strategy would normally encourage equity purchases in
stocks that are undervalued or priced below their perceived value. The risk assumed is
that the market will fail to reach expectations of perceived value.
Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025
6
Technical analysis attempts to predict a future stock price or direction based on market
trends. The assumption is that the market follows discernible patterns and if these
patterns can be identified then a prediction can be made. The risk is that markets do not
always follow patterns and relying solely on this method may not work long term.
Investment Strategies
Long term trading is designed to capture market rates of both return and risk. Frequent
trading, when done, can affect investment performance, particularly through increased
brokerage and other transaction costs and taxes.
Short term trading, margin transactions, and options writing generally hold greater risk
and clients should be aware that there is a material risk of loss using any of those
strategies.
Investing in securities involves a risk of loss that you, as a client, should be prepared
to bear.
C. Risks of Specific Securities Utilized
CHP generally seeks investment strategies that do not involve significant or unusual risk
beyond that of the general domestic and/or international equity markets. However, on
rare occasions and with full client authorization it may utilize margin transactions and
options writing. Short sales, margin transactions, and options writing generally hold
greater risk of capital loss and clients should be aware that there is a material risk of loss
using any of those strategies. The investment types listed below (leaving aside Treasury
Inflation Protected/Inflation Linked Bonds) are not guaranteed or insured by the FDIC
or any other government agency.
Mutual Funds: Investing in mutual funds carries the risk of capital loss and thus you
may lose money investing in mutual funds. All mutual funds have costs that lower
investment returns. They can be of bond “fixed income” nature (lower risk) or stock
“equity” nature (mentioned above).
Equity investment generally refers to buying shares of stocks by an individual or firms
in return for receiving a future payment of dividends and capital gains if the value of the
stock increases. There is an innate risk involved when purchasing a stock that it may
decrease in value and the investment may incur a loss.
Treasury Inflation Protected/Inflation Linked Bonds: The Risk of default on these
bonds is dependent upon the U.S. Treasury defaulting (extremely unlikely); however,
they carry a potential risk of losing share price value, albeit rather minimal.
Fixed Income is an investment that guarantees fixed periodic payments in the future
that may involve economic risks such as inflationary risk, interest rate risk, default risk,
repayment of principal risk, etc.
Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025
7
Debt securities carry risks such as the possibility of default on the principal, fluctuation
in interest rates, and counterparties being unable to meet obligations.
Stocks & Exchange Traded Funds (ETF): Investing in stocks & ETF's carries the risk of
capital loss (sometimes up to a 100% loss in the case of a stock holding bankruptcy).
Real Estate funds face several kinds of risk that are inherent in this sector of the market.
Liquidity risk, market risk and interest rate risk are just some of the factors that can
influence the gain or loss that is passed on to the investor. Liquidity and market risk
tend to have a greater effect on funds that are more growth-oriented, as the sale of
appreciated properties depends upon market demand. Conversely, interest rate risk
impacts the amount of dividend income that is paid by income-oriented funds.
Hedge Funds are not suitable for all investors and involve a high degree of risk due to
several factors that may contribute to above average gains or significant losses. Such
factors include leveraging or other speculative investment practices, commodity trading,
complex tax structures, a lack of transparency in the underlying investments, and
generally the absence of a secondary market.
REITs have specific risks including valuation due to cash flows, dividends paid in stock
rather than cash, and the payment of debt resulting in dilution of shares.
Private placements carry a substantial risk as they are largely unregulated offerings not
subject to securities laws.
Precious Metal ETFs (Gold, Silver, and Palladium Bullion backed “electronic shares”
not physical metal): Investing in precious metal ETFs carries the risk of capital loss.
Long term trading is designed to capture market rates of both return and risk. Due to
its nature, the long-term investment strategy can expose clients to various other types of
risk that will typically surface at various intervals during the time the client owns the
investments. These risks include but are not limited to inflation (purchasing power) risk,
interest rate risk, economic risk, market risk, and political/regulatory risk.
Short term trading risks include liquidity, economic stability and inflation.
Margin transactions use leverage that is borrowed from a brokerage firm as collateral.
Options writing involve a contract to purchase a security at a given price, not
necessarily at market value, depending on the market.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. Investing in securities involves
a risk of loss that you, as a client, should be prepared to bear.

D. Selection of Other Advisers or Managers and How This Adviser is

CHP may utilize other advisers or third party managers.
Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025

Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client
Transactions and Personal Trading
A. Code of Ethics
CHP has a written Code of Ethics that covers the following areas: Prohibited Purchases
and Sales, Insider Trading, Personal Securities Transactions, Exempted Transactions,
Prohibited Activities, Conflicts of Interest, Gifts and Entertainment, Confidentiality,
Service on a Board of Directors, Compliance Procedures, Compliance with Laws and
Regulations, Procedures and Reporting, Certification of Compliance, Reporting
Violations, Compliance Officer Duties, Training and Education, Recordkeeping, Annual
Review, and Sanctions. Our Code of Ethics is available free upon request to any client
or prospective client.
B. Recommendations Involving Material Financial Interests
CHP does not recommend that clients buy or sell any security in which a related person
to CHP or CHP has a material financial interest.
C. Investing Personal Money in the Same Securities as Clients
From time to time, representatives of CHP may buy or sell securities for themselves that
they also recommend to clients. This may provide an opportunity for representatives of
CHP to buy or sell the same securities before or after recommending the same securities
to clients resulting in representatives profiting off the recommendations they provide to
clients. Such transactions may create a conflict of interest. CHP will always document
any transactions that could be construed as conflicts of interest and will always transact
client business before their own when similar securities are being bought or sold.
D. Trading Securities At/Around the Same Time as Clients’ Securities
From time to time, representatives of CHP may buy or sell securities for themselves at or
around the same time as clients. This may provide an opportunity for representatives of
CHP to buy or sell securities before or after recommending securities to clients resulting
in representatives profiting off the recommendations they provide to clients. Such
transactions may create a conflict of interest. CHP will always transact client’s
transactions before its own when similar securities are being bought or sold.
Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025
10
Item 12: Brokerage Practices
A. Factors Used to Select Custodians and/or Broker/Dealers
The Primary Custodian, Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC, (CRD# 7784), was chosen
based on their relatively low transaction fees and access to mutual funds and ETFs. CHP
will never charge a premium or commission on transactions, beyond the actual cost
imposed by Custodian. If in the future Fidelity may not be able to provide all desired
investment vehicles for the client additional custodians may be required.
1. Research and Other Soft-Dollar Benefits
CHP receives no research, product, or services other than execution from a broker-
dealer or third-party in connection with client securities transactions (“soft dollar
benefits”).
2. Brokerage for Client Referrals
CHP receives no referrals from a broker-dealer or third party in exchange for using
that broker-dealer or third party.
3. Clients Directing Which Broker/Dealer/Custodian to Use
CHP allows clients to direct brokerage: however, CHP may recommend custodians.
CHP may be unable to achieve most favorable execution of client transactions if
clients choose to direct brokerage. This may cost clients money because without the
ability to direct brokerage CHP may not be able to aggregate orders to reduce
transactions costs resulting in higher brokerage commissions and less favorable
prices. Not all investment advisers allow their clients to direct brokerage.
B. Aggregating (Block) Trading for Multiple Client Accounts
CHP maintains the ability to block trade purchases across accounts. Block trading
may benefit a large group of clients by providing CHP the ability to purchase larger
blocks resulting in smaller transaction costs to the client. Declining to block trade can
cause more expensive trades for clients.
Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025
11
Item 13: Reviews of Accounts
A. Frequency and Nature of Periodic Reviews and Who Makes Those
Reviews
Client accounts are reviewed at least quarterly by CHP, with regard to clients’ respective
investment policies and risk tolerance levels.
All financial counseling accounts are reviewed upon financial plan creation and plan
review by CHP and its clients.
B. Factors That Will Trigger a Non-Periodic Review of Client
Accounts
Reviews may be triggered by material market and economic changes, or by changes in
client's personal and financial situation (such as additional withdrawal needs,
retirement, and termination of employment, physical move, or inheritance).
C. Content and Frequency of Regular Reports Provided to Clients
Each client will receive at least annually from the custodian, a written statement or
report that details the client’s account including assets held and asset value which will
be prepared and delivered by the custodian.
Item 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation
A. Economic Benefits Provided by Third Parties for Advice Rendered
to Clients (Includes Sales Awards or Other Prizes)
CHP does not receive any economic benefit, directly or indirectly from any third party
for advice rendered to CHP clients.
B. Compensation to Non – Advisory Personnel for Client Referrals
CHP does not directly or indirectly compensate any person who is not advisory
personnel for client referrals.
Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025
12
Item 15: Custody
CHP, with client written authority, has limited custody of client’s assets through direct fee
deduction of CHP’s fees only. If the client chooses to be billed directly by Fidelity Brokerage
Services LLC, (CRD# 7784), or any other custodian, CHP would have constructive custody over
that account and must have written authorization from the client to do so. Clients will receive
all account statements and billing invoices that are required in each jurisdiction, and they
should carefully review those statements for accuracy.
Item 16: Investment Discretion
For those client accounts where CHP will have investment discretion, the client has given CHP
written discretionary authority over the client’s accounts with respect to securities to be bought
or sold and the amount of securities to be bought or sold. Details of this relationship are fully
disclosed to the client before any advisory relationship has commenced. The client provides
CHP discretionary authority via a discretionary investment management clause in the
Investment Advisory Contract and/or a limited power of attorney clause in the contract
between the client and the custodian.
Item 17: Voting Client Securities (Proxy Voting)
CHP will not ask for, nor accept voting authority for client securities. Clients will receive
proxies directly from the issuer of the security or the custodian. Clients should direct all proxy
questions to the issuer of the security.
Item 18: Financial Information
A. Balance Sheet
CHP does not require nor solicit prepayment of more than $1,200 in fees per client, six
months or more in advance and therefore does not need to include a balance sheet with
this brochure.
B. Financial Conditions Reasonably Likely to Impair Ability to Meet
Contractual Commitments to Clients
Neither CHP nor its management have any financial conditions that is likely to
reasonably impair our ability to meet contractual commitments to clients.
Form ADV 2A Version: 09/30/2025

C. Bankruptcy Petitions in Previous Ten Years
CHP has not been the subject of a bankruptcy petition in the last ten years.
