FFD charges an annual investment advisory fee based on the invested assets under management as follows: Assets Under Management $0 to 999,999 $1,000,000 to $1,999,999 $2,000,000 to $2,999,999 $3,000,000 to $3,999,999 $4,000,000 to $4,999,999 $5,000,000 to $5,999,999 $6,000,000 to $7,499,999 $7,500,000 to $10,000,000 $10,000,000 and above Annual Fee 1.00% 0.90% 0.80% 0.70% 0.60% 0.50% 0.40% 0.30% 0.25% Quarterly Fee 0.25% 0.225% 0.2% 0.175% 0.15% 0.125% 0.1% 0.075% 0.0625% The annual fee may be negotiable based upon certain criteria such as current employees or immediate family members of FFD. Accounts within the same household or business may be combined for a reduced fee, with the exception of clients who have investments within the Pooled Employer Plan (PEP). 6 Fees are billed quarterly in arrears based on the average daily balance of the account as of the close of business on the last business day of the previous quarter. FFD considers money market funds and certificates of deposit to be part of a fixed income asset class and as such is included in fee calculations. It is possible that the fees will exceed the money market or certificate of deposit yield. The average daily balance method is calculated using the formula: (A ÷ D) X F • A Where: • D = the sum of the daily account balances during the billing period; • F = the number of days in the billing period; and = the applicable quarterly advisory fee rate. For example, during a 91-day quarter, an account maintained a balance of $2,000,000 for 85 days and a balance of $997,999 for six days. The average daily balance would be calculated as follows: �(85 × $2,000,000) + (6 × $997,999)� ÷ 91 = $1,933,934 Assuming an annual advisory fee of 0.90% (0.225% per quarter), the quarterly advisory fee would be: $4,351.35 $1,933,934 × 0.225% = $4,351.35 Accordingly, the advisory fee charged for the quarter would be . Lower fees for comparable services may be available from other sources. Clients may terminate their account within five (5) business days of signing the Investment Advisory Agreement with no obligation and without penalty. Clients may terminate advisory services with thirty (30) days written notice. For accounts opened or closed mid-billing period, fees will be prorated based on the days services are provided during the given period. All unpaid earned fees will be due to FFD. Client shall be given thirty (30) days prior written notice of any increase in fees. Any increase in fees will be acknowledged in writing by both parties before any increase in said fees occurs. In computing the market value of any investment of the Account, each security listed on any national securities exchange or otherwise subject to current last-sale reporting shall be valued at the last sale price on the valuation date. However, for assets such as alternative investments where a fee is charged and the custodian does not price the security, the asset may be priced by the provider of the asset according to their pricing policy or may also involve independent pricing services for assets that are priced in that manner.

FFD does not use a performance-based fee structure because of the conflict of interest. Performance based compensation may create an incentive for FFD to recommend an investment that may carry a higher degree of risk to the Client. Item 7: Types of Clients Description FFD generally provides investment advice to individuals, high net worth individuals, corporations or business entities. Account Minimums Client relationships vary in scope and length of service. FFD does not require a minimum to open an account. Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss Methods of Analysis FFD uses Modern Portfolio Theory to construct investment portfolios for clients. This involves identifying equity asset classes which when combined are expected to decrease the risk level of a portfolio and/or increase the expected return. For example, adding international equity asset classes to a portfolio of US equities may decrease the risk level of the portfolio over the long-term due in additional diversification. In addition, adding value equities to an equity portfolio may increase the expected return of the portfolio over the long-term. Fixed income asset classes are chosen to provide stability to a client's portfolio. Mutual funds and/or exchange traded funds (ETFs) are chosen to represent a particular asset class. In developing a financial plan for a Client, FFD’s analysis may include Financial Goal Development, Net Worth Analysis, Cash Flow Analysis, Education Planning, Investment Planning, Tax Planning, Retirement Savings & Income Planning, Risk Management & Insurance Planning and Legacy Planning. Based on the information gathered, a detailed strategy is tailored to the Client’s specific situation. Investment Strategy The main sources of information include long-term data and research on various asset classes. The investment strategy for a specific Client is based upon the objectives stated by the Client during consultations. The Client may change these objectives at any time by providing written notice to FFD. Each Client executes a Client profile form or similar form that documents their objectives and their desired investment strategy. Other strategies may include long-term purchases and short-term purchases. 11 Security Specific Material Risks • Market Risk All investment programs have certain risks that are borne by the investor. Investing in securities involves risk of loss that clients should be prepared to bear. Our investment approach constantly keeps the risk of loss in mind. Investors face the following investment risks and should discuss these risks with FFD: • : The prices of securities held by mutual funds in which Clients invest may decline in response to certain events taking place around the world, including those directly involving the companies whose securities are owned by a fund; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations. Investors should have a long-term perspective and be able to Interest-rate Risk tolerate potentially sharp declines in market value. • : Fluctuations in interest rates may cause investment prices to fluctuate. For example, when interest rates rise, yields on existing bonds become less Inflation Risk attractive, causing their market values to decline. : When any type of inflation is present, a dollar today will buy more than • Currency Risk a dollar next year, because purchasing power is eroding at the rate of inflation. • Reinvestment Risk : Overseas investments are subject to fluctuations in the value of the dollar against the currency of the investment’s originating country. This is also referred to as exchange rate risk. • Liquidity Risk : This is the risk that future proceeds from investments may have to be reinvested at a potentially lower rate of return (i.e. interest rate). This primarily relates to fixed income securities. • Management Risk: : Liquidity is the ability to readily convert an investment into cash. Generally, assets are more liquid if many traders are interested in a standardized product. For example, Treasury Bills are highly liquid, while real estate properties are not. • Equity Risk: FFD’s investment approach may fail to produce the intended results. If FFD’s assumptions regarding the performance of a specific asset class or fund are not realized in the expected time frame, the overall performance of the Client’s portfolio may suffer. Equity securities tend to be more volatile than other investment choices. The value of an individual mutual fund or ETF can be more volatile than the market as a whole. This volatility affects the value of the Client’s overall portfolio. Small- and mid-cap companies are subject to additional risks. Smaller companies may experience greater volatility, higher failure rates, more limited markets, product lines, financial resources, and less management experience than larger companies. Smaller companies may also have a lower trading volume, which may disproportionately affect their market price, tending to make them fall more in response to selling pressure than is the case with larger companies. 12 • Fixed Income Risk: • The issuer of a fixed income security may not be able to make interest and principal payments when due. Generally, the lower the credit rating of a security, the greater the risk that the issuer will default on its obligation. If a rating agency gives a debt security a lower rating, the value of the debt security will decline because investors will demand a higher rate of return. As nominal interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities held by a fund is likely to decrease. A nominal Investment Companies Risk: interest rate is the sum of a real interest rate and an expected inflation rate. • Long-term purchases When a Client invests in open end mutual funds or ETFs, the Client indirectly bears their proportionate share of any fees and expenses payable directly by those funds. Therefore, the Client will incur higher expenses, which may be duplicative. In addition, the Client’s overall portfolio may be affected by losses of an underlying fund and the level of risk arising from the investment practices of an underlying fund (such as the use of derivatives). ETFs are also subject to the following risks: (i) an ETF’s shares may trade at a market price that is above or below their net asset value or (ii) trading of an ETF’s shares may be halted if the listing exchange’s officials deem such action appropriate, the shares are de-listed from the exchange, or the activation of market-wide “circuit breakers” (which are tied to large decreases in stock prices) halts stock trading generally. FFD has no control over the risks taken by the underlying funds in which Client invests. • Short-term purchases : Long-term investments are those vehicles purchased with the intension of being held for more than one year. Typically, the expectation of the investment is to increase in value so that it can eventually be sold for a profit. In addition, there may be an expectation for the investment to provide income. One of the biggest risks associated with long-term investments is volatility, the fluctuations in the financial markets that can cause investments to lose value. : Short-term investments are typically held for one year or less. Generally there is not a high expectation for a return or an increase in value. Typically, short-term investments are purchased for the relatively greater degree of principal protection they are designed to provide. Short-term investment vehicles may be subject to purchasing power risk — the risk that your investment’s return will not keep up with inflation. Additionally, frequent trading can affect investment performance, particularly through increased brokerage and other transaction costs • Trading risk and taxes. : Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There is no • Variable Annuity Risk: assurance that the investment objective of any fund or investment will be achieved. Fee-based variable annuities are long-term investment vehicles that combine market-based investment options with insurance features and involve material risks. Investment performance is tied to the underlying subaccounts and will fluctuate with market conditions, and loss of principal is possible. Although these products do not pay upfront commissions in a fee-based arrangement, they include ongoing costs such as advisory fees, mortality and expense charges, administrative fees, rider costs, and underlying fund expenses, all of which reduce overall returns. Guarantees, including death or living benefits, are subject to the 13 claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. Variable annuities may also impose surrender charges or withdrawal limitations for a specified period, and withdrawals are generally taxed as ordinary income and may be subject to additional penalties if taken before age 59½. Optional riders and benefit features can be complex and may not perform as expected in certain market environments. In addition, lower- cost investment alternatives without insurance features may be available. As with all investments, clients should carefully consider their financial objectives, time horizon, liquidity needs, and risk tolerance, as loss of principal is possible. Item 9: Disciplinary Information Criminal or Civil Actions Administrative Enforcement Proceedings FFD and its management have not been involved in any criminal or civil action. Self- Regulatory Organization Enforcement Proceedings FFD and its management have not been involved in administrative enforcement proceedings. FFD and its management have not been involved in legal or disciplinary events that are material to a Client’s or prospective Client’s evaluation of FFD or the integrity of its management. Item 10: Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations Broker-Dealer or Representative Registration Futures or Commodity Registration FFD is not registered as a broker-dealer and no affiliated representatives of FFD are registered representatives of a broker-dealer. Material Relationships Maintained by this Advisory Business and Conflicts of Interest Neither FFD nor its affiliated representatives are registered or have an application pending to register as a futures commission merchant, commodity pool operator, or a commodity trading advisor. Recommendations or Selections of Other Investment Advisors and Conflicts of Interest Managing Member, Nathan J. Ricks does not have any conflicts of interest to report. FFD does not select or recommend other investment advisors. Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading Code of Ethics Description include employees and/or The affiliated persons (affiliated persons independent contractors) of FFD have committed to a Code of Ethics (“Code”). The purpose of our Code is to set forth standards of conduct expected of FFD affiliated persons and addresses conflicts that may arise. The Code defines acceptable behavior for affiliated persons of FFD. The Code 14 reflects FFD and its supervised persons’ responsibility to act in the best interest of their Client. One area which the Code addresses is when affiliated persons buy or sell securities for their personal accounts and how to mitigate any conflict of interest with our Clients. We do not allow any affiliated persons to use non-public material information for their personal profit or to use internal research for their personal benefit in conflict with the benefit to our Clients. FFD’s policy prohibits any person from acting upon or otherwise misusing non-public or inside information. No advisory representative or other affiliated person, officer or director of FFD may recommend any transaction in a security or its derivative to advisory Clients or engage in personal securities transactions for a security or its derivatives if the advisory representative possesses material, non-public information regarding the security. FFD’s Code is based on the guiding principle that the interests of the Client are our top priority. FFD’s officers, directors, advisors, and other affiliated persons have a fiduciary duty to our Clients and must diligently perform that duty to maintain the complete trust and confidence of our Clients. When a conflict arises, it is our obligation to put the Client’s interests over the interests of either affiliated persons or the company. The Code applies to “access” persons. “Access” persons are affiliated persons who have access to non-public information regarding any Clients' purchase or sale of securities, or non-public information regarding the portfolio holdings of any reportable fund, who are involved in making securities recommendations to Clients, or who have access to such recommendations that are non-public. FFD will provide a copy of the Code of Ethics to any Client or prospective Client upon request. Investment Recommendations Involving a Material Financial Interest and Conflict of Interest FFD and its affiliated persons do not recommend to Clients securities in which we have a material financial interest. Advisory Firm Purchase of Same Securities Recommended to Clients and Conflicts of Interest FFD and its affiliated persons may buy or sell securities that are also held by Clients. In order to mitigate conflicts of interest such as trading ahead of Client transactions, affiliated persons are required to disclose all reportable securities transactions as well as provide FFD with copies of their brokerage statements. The Chief Compliance Officer of FFD is Nathan J. Ricks. He reviews all trades of the affiliated persons each quarter. The personal trading reviews ensure that the personal trading of affiliated persons does not affect the markets and that Clients of the firm receive preferential Client Securities Recommendations or Trades and Concurrent Advisory Firm treatment over associated persons’ transactions. Securities Transactions and Conflicts of Interest FFD does not maintain a firm proprietary trading account and does not have a material financial interest in any securities being recommended and therefore no conflicts of interest exist. However, affiliated persons may buy or sell securities at the same time they buy or sell 15 securities for Clients. In order to mitigate conflicts of interest such as front running, affiliated persons are required to disclose all reportable securities transactions as well as provide FFD with copies of their brokerage statements. The Chief Compliance Officer of FFD is Nathan J. Ricks. He reviews all employee trades each quarter. The personal trading reviews ensure that the personal trading of affiliated persons does not affect the markets and that Clients of the firm receive preferential treatment over associated persons’ transactions. Item 12: Brokerage Practices Factors Used to Select Custodians for Client Transactions FFD will recommend the use of a particular broker-dealer based on their duty to seek best execution for the client, meaning they have an obligation to obtain the most favorable terms for a client under the circumstances. The determination of what may constitute best execution and price in the execution of a securities transaction by a broker involves a number of considerations and is subjective. Factors affecting brokerage selection include the overall direct net economic result to the portfolios, the efficiency with which the transaction is affected, the ability to effect the transaction where a large block is involved, the operational facilities of the broker-dealer, the value of an ongoing relationship with such broker and the financial strength and stability of the broker. FFD will select appropriate brokers based on a number of factors including but not limited to their relatively low transaction fees and reporting ability. FFD relies on its broker to provide its execution services at the best prices available. Lower fees for comparable services may be available from other sources. Clients pay for any and all custodial fees in addition to the advisory fee charged by FFD. FFD does not receive any portion of the trading fees. • Directed Brokerage FFD will recommend the use of Charles Schwab. • Best Execution In circumstances where a Client directs FFD to use a certain custodian, FFD still has a fiduciary duty to its Clients. The following may apply with Directed Brokerage: FFD's inability to negotiate commissions, to obtain volume discounts, there may be a disparity in commission charges among Clients and conflicts of interest arising from brokerage firm referrals. The firm may be unable to achieve most favorable execution of client transactions, and this practice may cost clients more money. Investment advisors who manage or supervise Client portfolios have a fiduciary obligation of best execution. The determination of what may constitute best execution and price in the execution of a securities transaction by a custodian involves a number of considerations and is subjective. Factors affecting brokerage selection include the overall direct net economic result to the portfolios, the efficiency with which the transaction is effected, the ability to affect the transaction where a large block is involved, the operational facilities of the custodian, the value of an ongoing relationship with such custodian and the financial strength and stability of the custodian. The firm does not receive any portion of the trading fees. 16 • Soft Dollar Arrangements The Securities and Exchange Commission defines soft dollar practices as arrangement under which products or services other than execution services are obtained by FFD from or through a custodian in exchange for directing Client transactions to the custodian. As permitted by Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, FFD receives economic benefits as a result of commissions generated from securities transactions by the custodian from the accounts of FFD. These benefits include both proprietary research from the custodian and other research written by third parties. A conflict of interest exists when FFD receives soft dollars. This conflict is mitigated by the fact that FFD has a fiduciary responsibility to act in the best interest of its Clients and the services received are beneficial to all Clients. • Brokerage for Client Referrals FFD utilizes the services of custodians. Economic benefits are received by FFD which would not be received if FFD did not give investment advice to Clients. These benefits may include: A dedicated trading desk, a dedicated service group dedicated to FFD's accounts, ability to conduct "block" Client trades, electronic download of trades, balances and positions, duplicate and batched Client statements, and the ability to have advisory fees directly deducted from Client accounts. FFD does not receive client referrals from any custodian or third party in exchange Aggregating Securities Transactions for Client Accounts for using that broker-dealer or third party. FFD will typically manage each account separately, and therefore, does not aggregate purchases and sales and other transactions. If orders are not aggregated, some clients purchasing securities around the same time may receive a less favorable price than other clients which may cost clients more money. Item 13: Review of Accounts Schedule for Periodic Review of Client Accounts or Financial Plans and Advisory Persons Involved Account reviews are performed at least annually by one of the Investment Advisor Representatives at FFD. Reviews of Client accounts include, but are not limited to, a review of Client documented risk tolerance, adherence to account objectives, investment time horizon, and suitability criteria. Accounts are reviewed for rebalancing and tax-loss harvesting opportunities at least quarterly. Review of Client Accounts on Non-Periodic Basis Financial Plans may be updated every six months for Clients with over $600,000 invested with us or for Clients who pay an ongoing financial planning fee. Other conditions that may trigger a review of Clients’ accounts are changes in the tax laws, new investment information, and changes in a Client's own situation. 17 Content of Client Provided Reports and Frequency Clients receive monthly account statements from FFD's custodian. Clients have access to trade confirmations of each transaction in their account(s). Item 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation Economic Benefits Provided to the Advisory Firm from External Sources and Conflicts of Interest FFD receives additional economic benefits from external sources as described above in Item 12. Advisory Firm Payments for Client Referrals FFD does not compensate for Client referrals. Item 15: Custody Account Statements All assets are held at qualified custodians, which means the custodians provide account statements directly to Clients at their address of record at least quarterly. Clients are urged to compare the account statements received directly from their custodians to any documentation or reports prepared by FFD. FFD is deemed to have constructive custody because advisory fees are directly deducted from Client’s accounts by the custodian on behalf of FFD. Item 16: Investment Discretion Discretionary Authority for Trading FFD requires discretionary authority to manage securities accounts on behalf of Clients. FFD has the authority to determine, without obtaining specific Client consent, the securities to be bought or sold, and the amount of the securities to be bought or sold. FFD allows Clients to place certain restrictions, as outlined in the Client’s Investment Policy Statement or similar document. Such restrictions could include only allowing purchases of socially conscious investments, where available. These restrictions must be provided to FFD in writing. The Client approves the custodian to be used and the commission rates paid to the custodian. FFD does not receive any portion of the transaction fees or commissions paid by the Client to the custodian. Item 17: Voting Client Securities Proxy Votes FFD does not vote proxies on securities. Clients are expected to vote their own proxies. The Client will receive their proxies directly from the custodian of their account or from a transfer agent. 18 Item 18: Financial Information Balance Sheet A balance sheet is not required to be provided because FFD does not serve as a custodian for Client funds or securities and FFD does not require prepayment of fees of more than $1,200 per Client and six months or more in advance. Financial Conditions Reasonably Likely to Impair Advisory Firm’s Ability to Meet Commitments to Clients Bankruptcy Petitions during the Past Ten Years FFD has no condition that is reasonably likely to impair our ability to meet contractual commitments to our Clients. FFD has not had any bankruptcy petitions in the last ten years. 19 S U P E R V I S E D P E R S O N B R O C H U R E Item 1 Cover Page F O R M A D V P A R T 2 B ® Nathan J.
