If there are any material changes to an adviser's disclosure brochure, the adviser is required to notify you and provide you with a description of the material changes. After the filing of our last annual updating amendment, dated March 12, 2025, we updated our disclosure brochure as follows: 1. Private Investment Funds and Fees We serve as the general partner and investment manager to PWA Real Estate Fund Gateway, LLC, master fund to PWA Gateway Blocker, LLC, a feeder fund ("Funds")., private real estate Funds. The Funds ae offered only to investors that meet certain minimum eligibility requirements of (i) an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and (ii) a "United States person" as that term is defined under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, unless otherwise determined by the Company. The Funds are organized as investment vehicles that intend to invest in real estate property ("Property"), through the Assignment (the Portfolio Investment). development of which will be primarily managed by Coastal Community Builders, Inc., a California corporation (the "Developer"). The Developer intends to complete entitlements and development of the Property for the ultimate construction and sale of two 3-story buildings featuring 39 luxury condominium units (the "Project"). The Funds' objective are to capitalize on undervalued market opportunities across various asset classes, using fundamental analysis, quantitative modeling, and risk management. The primary instruments traded by the Fund will be options, equities, and index funds. Although our strategy typically avoids the use of significant margin, we reserve the discretion to employ leverage through derivatives, specifically options, while maintaining the flexibility to utilize margin if it aligns with our risk tolerance. Portfolio Management clients may be offered investment in PWA Real Estate Gateway, LLC master or feeder fund, PWA Gateway Blocker, LLC. If you are invested in the Funds, you will not be charged a portfolio management fee on that part of your account. Private Placements: A private placement (nonpublic offering) is an illiquid security sold to qualified investors and are not publicly traded nor registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Risk: Private placements generally carry a higher degree of risk due to illiquidity. Most securities that are acquired in a private placement will be restricted securities and must be held for an extended amount of time and therefore cannot be sold easily. The range of risks are dependent on the nature of the partnership and are disclosed in the offering documents. 2. Participation or Interest in Client Transactions We serve as the general partner or are affiliated with one or more private funds (private pooled investment vehicles) in which you may be solicited to invest. Our Company, certain members of its management, and other knowledgeable employees may acquire, directly or indirectly, investment interests in our funds or have other financial interests (e.g. General Partner, Officers, Board Members, etc.) in the funds. This presents a conflict of interest because we have investments and/or are compensated by the private funds. Conflicts that arise are mitigated through our Company's fiduciary obligation to act in the best interest of our clients, contractual limitations that govern our activities as adviser or general partner, as applicable, and the requirement of our Company not to place its interests before its clients' interests when managing the funds. If you are an investor in the private funds, refer to the private funds' offering documents for detailed disclosures regarding the private funds. 2  3. Custody We serve as the general partner and investment adviser to PWA Real Estate Fund Gateway, LLC, master fund to PWA Gateway Blocker, LLC, a feeder fund ("Funds") real estate private investments in which our clients are solicited to invest. The Funds are offered to certain sophisticated investors, who meet certain requirements under applicable state and/or federal securities laws. Investors to whom the Funds are offered will receive a private placement memorandum and other offering documents. In our capacity as investment adviser to the Funds, we will have access to the Funds' cash and securities, and therefore we have custody over such cash and securities. We provide each investor in the Fund with audited annual financial statements. If you are a Fund investor and have questions regarding the financial statements or if you did not receive a copy, contact us directly at the telephone number on the cover page of this brochure. 3  Item 3 Table Of Contents Item 1 Cover Page Item 2 Summary of Material Changes Item 3 Table Of Contents Item 4 Advisory Business Item 5 Fees and Compensation Item 6 Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management Item 7 Types of Clients Item 8 Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss Item 9 Disciplinary Information Item 10 Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations Item 11 Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading Item 12 Brokerage Practices Item 13 Review of Accounts Item 14 Client Referrals and Other Compensation Item 15 Custody Item 16 Investment Discretion Item 17 Voting Client Securities Item 18 Financial Information Item 19 Requirements for State-Registered Advisers Item 20 Additional Information Page 1 Page 2 Page 4 Page 5 Page 8 Page 10 Page 11 Page 11 Page 14 Page 14 Page 15 Page 15 Page 19 Page 20 Page 20 Page 21 Page 22 Page 22 Page 22 Page 22 4  Item 4 Advisory Business Description of Services and Fees Private Wealth Advisors is a registered investment adviser based in Fresno, CA. We are organized as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of California. We have been providing investment advisory services since 2007. Martin L. Mazorra is our principal owner. Currently, we offer the following investment advisory services, which are personalized to each individual client: • Portfolio Management Services • Financial Consulting Services The following paragraphs describe our services and fees. Please refer to the description of each investment advisory service listed below for information on how we tailor our advisory services to your individual needs. As used in this brochure, the words "we", "our" and "us" refer to Private Wealth Advisors and the words "you", "your" and "client" refer to you as either a client or prospective client of our firm. Portfolio Management Services We offer discretionary portfolio management services. Our investment advice is tailored to meet our clients' needs and investment objectives. If you retain our firm for portfolio management services, we will meet with you to determine your investment objectives, risk tolerance, and other relevant information at the beginning of our advisory relationship. We will use the information we gather to develop a strategy that enables our firm to give you continuous and focused investment advice and/or to make investments on your behalf. As part of our portfolio management services, we may customize an investment portfolio for you according to your risk tolerance and investing objectives. We may also invest your assets using a predefined strategy. Once we construct an investment portfolio for you we will monitor your portfolio's performance on an ongoing basis, and will rebalance the portfolio as required by changes in market conditions and in your financial circumstances. Each client will have the opportunity to place reasonable restrictions on the types of investments to be held in the portfolio. Restrictions and/or guidelines on investments (for example, limiting the types of securities that can be purchased for your account) should be provided to our firm in writing. Restrictions and guidelines you impose may affect the composition and performance of your portfolio. For these reasons, performance of your portfolio may not be identical with the average client in our portfolio management program. If you participate in our discretionary portfolio management services, we require you to grant our firm discretionary authority to manage your account. Discretionary authorization will allow us to determine the specific securities, and the amount of securities, to be purchased or sold for your account without your approval prior to each transaction. Discretionary authority is typically granted by the investment advisory agreement you sign with our firm and the appropriate trading authorization forms. You may impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain securities, types of securities, or industry sectors. These restrictions or guidelines must be provided to us in writing. Portfolio Management clients may be offered investment in PWA Real Estate Gateway, LLC master or feeder fund, PWA Gateway Blocker, LLC. If you are invested in the Funds, you will not be charged a portfolio management fee on that part of your account. 5  Private Investment Funds We serve as the general partner and investment manager to PWA Real Estate Fund Gateway, LLC, master fund to PWA Gateway Blocker, LLC, a feeder fund ("Funds")., private real estate Funds. The Funds ae offered only to investors that meet certain minimum eligibility requirements of (i) an "accredited investor" as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act and (ii) a "United States person" as that term is defined under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, unless otherwise determined by the Company. The Funds are organized as investment vehicles that intend to invest in real estate property ("Property"), through the Assignment (the Portfolio Investment). development of which will be primarily managed by Coastal Community Builders, Inc., a California corporation (the "Developer"). The Developer intends to complete entitlements and development of the Property for the ultimate construction and sale of two 3-story buildings featuring 39 luxury condominium units (the "Project"). The Funds' objective are to capitalize on undervalued market opportunities across various asset classes, using fundamental analysis, quantitative modeling, and risk management. The primary instruments traded by the Fund will be options, equities, and index funds. Although our strategy typically avoids the use of significant margin, we reserve the discretion to employ leverage through derivatives, specifically options, while maintaining the flexibility to utilize margin if it aligns with our risk tolerance. Financial Consulting Services We provide a variety of financial consultation services to individuals, families and other clients regarding the management of their financial resources based upon an analysis of their current situation, goals, and objectives. Generally, such financial services involve the rendering of one or more financial consultations for clients based on the client's financial goals and objectives. This consulting may encompass one or more of the following areas: Investment Planning, Retirement Planning, Estate Planning, Charitable Planning, Education Planning, Corporate and Personal Tax Planning, Cost Segregation Study, Corporate Structure, Real Estate Analysis, Mortgage/Debt Analysis, Insurance Analysis, Lines of Credit Evaluation, Business and Personal Financial Planning. Our financial consultations rendered to clients usually include general recommendations for a course of activity or specific actions to be taken by the clients. For example, recommendations may be made that the clients begin or revise investment programs, create or revise wills or trusts, obtain or revise insurance coverage, commence or alter retirement savings, or establish education or charitable giving programs. For financial consulting engagements, we may or may not (depending upon the scope of each engagement) provide our clients with a written summary of our observations and recommendations. You are under no obligation to act on our financial consulting recommendations. Should you choose to act on any of our recommendations, you are not obligated to implement the financial plan through any of our other investment advisory services. Moreover, you may act on our recommendations by placing securities transactions with any brokerage firm. Pension Consulting Services We offer pension consulting services to employee benefit plans and their fiduciaries based upon the needs of the plan and the services requested by the plan sponsor or named fiduciary. In general, these services may include an existing plan review and analysis, plan-level advice regarding fund selection and investment options, education services to plan participants, investment performance monitoring, 6  and/or ongoing consulting. These pension consulting services will generally be non-discretionary and advisory in nature. The ultimate decision to act on behalf of the plan shall remain with the plan sponsor or other named fiduciary. We may also assist with participant enrollment meetings and provide investment-related educational seminars to plan participants on such topics as: • Diversification • Asset allocation • Risk tolerance • Time horizon Our educational seminars may include other investment-related topics specific to the particular plan. General - Advisory Services to Retirement Plans and Plan Participants We offer various levels of advisory and consulting services to employee benefit plans ("Plan") and to the participants of such plans ("Participants"). The services are designed to assist plan sponsors in meeting their management and fiduciary obligations to Participants under the Employee Retirement Income Securities Act ("ERISA"). Pursuant to adopted regulations of the U.S. Department of Labor, we are required to provide the Plan's responsible plan fiduciary (the person who has the authority to engage us as an investment adviser to the Plan) with a written statement of the services we provide to the Plan, the compensation we receive for providing those services, and our status (which is described below). The services we provide to your Plan are described above, and in the service agreement that you have previously signed. Our compensation for these services is described below, at Item 5, and also in the service agreement. We do not reasonably expect to receive any other compensation, direct or indirect, for the services we provide to the Plan or Participants, unless the plan sponsor directs us to deduct our fee from the plan or directs the plan record-keeper to issue payment for our fee out of the plan. If we receive any other compensation for such services, we will (i) offset the compensation against our stated fees, and (ii) we will promptly disclose the amount of such compensation, the services rendered for such compensation and the payer of such compensation to you. Status In providing services to the Plan and Participants, our status is that of an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, and we are not subject to any disqualifications under Section 411 of ERISA. In performing fiduciary services, we are acting either as a non-discretionary fiduciary of the Plan as defined in Section 3(21) under ERISA, or as a discretionary fiduciary of the plan as defined in Section 3(38) under ERISA. Rollover Recommendations Effective December 20, 2021 (or such later date as the US Department of Labor ("DOL") Field Assistance Bulletin 2018-02 ceases to be in effect), for purposes of complying with the DOL's Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2020-02 ("PTE 2020-02") where applicable, we are providing the following acknowledgment to you. When we provide investment advice to you regarding your retirement plan account or individual retirement account, we are fiduciaries within the meaning of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and/or the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable, which are laws governing retirement accounts. The way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests, so we operate under a special rule that requires us to act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. Under this special rule's provisions, we must: • Meet a professional standard of care when making investment recommendations (give prudent 7  advice); • Never put our financial interests ahead of yours when making recommendations (give loyal advice); • Avoid misleading statements about conflicts of interest, fees, and investments; • Follow policies and procedures designed to ensure that we give advice that is in your best interest; • Charge no more than is reasonable for our services; and • Give you basic information about conflicts of interest. We benefit financially from the rollover of your assets from a retirement account to an account that we manage or provide investment advice, because the assets increase our Assets Under Management and, in turn, our advisory fees. As a fiduciary, we only recommend a rollover when we believe it is in your best interest. Types of Investments We primarily offer advice on equities, exchanged traded funds and mutual funds. However, we may advise you on any type of investment that we deem appropriate based on your stated goals and objectives. We may also provide advice on any type of investment held in your portfolio at the inception of our advisory relationship. You may request that we refrain from investing in particular securities or certain types of securities. You must provide these restrictions to our firm in writing. Assets Under Management As of February 16, 2026, we provide continuous management services for $451,158,900 in client assets on a discretionary basis. Item 5 Fees and Compensation Portfolio Management Services Our fee for portfolio management services is based on a percentage of your assets we manage and is set forth in the following fee schedule*: Account Value From Account Value To Per Quarter Annualized $0 $ 149,999 0.3750% 1.50% $150,000 $ 249,999 0.3375% 1.35% $250,000 $ 499,999 0.3125% 1.25% $500,000 $ 749,999 0.2875% 1.15% $750,000 $ 999,999 0.2500% 1.00% $1,000,000 $1,999,999 0.2375% 0.95% $2,000,000 $2,999,999 0.2125% 0.85% $3,000,000 $3,999,999 0.1750% 0.70% $4,000,000 $4,999,999 0.1625% 0.65% $5,000,000 $5,999,999 0.1500% 0.60% $6,000,000 $6,999,999 0.1375% 0.55% $7,000,000 + 0.1250% 0.50%  Only one percentage bracket shall be assigned to the entire account. For instance, if an 8  account has a balance of $400,000, the client's annual fee would be 1.25% of assets under management (charged on a pro-rata basis as described below). *Applies to non-fixed income portfolios. Annualized fees for fixed income-only portfolios range from .10% to .50% of the account value. Our annual portfolio management fee for non-fixed income portfolios is billed and payable quarterly in advance based on the value of your account on the last day of the previous quarter. Our fee for fixed income portfolios are billed and payable quarterly in arrears based on the value of your fixed income account on the last day of the current quarter. If assets in excess of $100,000 are deposited into or withdrawn from an account after the inception of a billing period, the fee payable with respect to such assets will be adjusted to reflect the interim change in portfolio value. If the portfolio 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 that the advisory fee is payable in proportion to the number of days in the quarter for which you are a client. Our advisory fee is negotiable, depending on individual client circumstances. At our discretion, we may combine the account values of family members living in the same household to determine the applicable advisory fee. For example, we may combine account values for you and your minor children, joint accounts with your spouse, and other types of related accounts. Combining account values may increase the asset total, which may result in your paying a reduced advisory fee based on the available breakpoints in our fee schedule stated above. We will deduct our fee directly from your account through the qualified custodian holding your funds and securities. We will deduct our advisory fee only when you have given our firm written authorization permitting the fees to be paid directly from your account. Further, the qualified custodian will deliver an account statement to you at least quarterly. These account statements will show all disbursements from your account. You should review all statements for accuracy. We will also receive a duplicate copy of your account statements. You may terminate the portfolio management agreement upon written notice to our firm. You will incur a pro rata charge for services rendered prior to the termination of the portfolio management 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. Private Fund Fees The Fund will pay us a management fee payable monthly in advance, equal to 1/12 of 2% (2% per year) of the aggregate capital commitments. The fee may be waived at our discretion. See the offering documents for specific information related to the fee and other fund expenses. Financial Consulting Services We charge either an hourly or a fixed fee for financial consulting services. The fee is negotiable depending upon the complexity and scope of the plan, your financial situation, and your objectives. We do not require you to pay fees six or more months in advance. The flat consulting fee generally ranges between $1,500 to $10,000. Our hourly rate for financial consulting services is $500 per hour. The fees are negotiable depending on the scope and complexity of the plan, your financial situation, and your objectives. An estimate of the total time/cost will be determined at the start of the advisory relationship. In limited circumstances, the cost/time could potentially exceed the initial estimate. In such cases, we will notify you in advance and request that you approve the additional fee. 9  We require that you pay a retainer of 50% of the estimated total financial consulting fee in advance and the remainder of the fee will be directly billed to you and due to us within thirty (30) days of your financial plan being delivered or consultation rendered to you. In all cases, we will not require a retainer exceeding $1,200 when services cannot be rendered within six (6) months. At our discretion, we may offset our financial planning fees to the extent you implement the financial plan through our Portfolio Management Service. You may terminate the financial planning agreement by providing written notice to our firm. You will incur a pro rata charge for services rendered prior to the termination of the agreement. If you have pre- paid advisory fees that we have not yet earned, you will receive a prorated refund of those fees. Pension Consulting Services We charge a fixed or asset-based fee for pension consulting services, which are negotiated with the plan sponsor or named fiduciary on a case-by-case basis. You may terminate the pension consulting services agreement upon written notice to our firm. You will incur a pro rata charge for services rendered prior to the termination of the agreement, which means you will incur advisory fees only in proportion to the number of days for which you are a client. If you have pre-paid advisory fees that we have not yet earned, you will receive a prorated refund of those fees. Additional Fees and Expenses As part of our investment advisory services to you, we may invest, or recommend that you invest, in mutual funds and exchange traded funds. The fees that you pay to our firm for investment advisory 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. You may also incur certain ancillary charges, transaction and/or brokerage fees imposed by the custodian or broker-dealer of your account. On occasion we may use an option strategy. Clients will pay or collect a premium for buying or selling an option and/or incur additional related transaction costs. This would be in respect to the value of a client portfolio. For example, a portfolio under $500,000 would have less Option cost verses a portfolio worth $3,000,000. The reasoning is based on hedging to protect a portfolio, and therefore, at 65 cents a contract, a larger portfolio may be slightly more than a smaller portfolio. We do not share in any portion of the brokerage fees, transaction charges or option related costs imposed by the broker-dealer or custodian. 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. For information on our brokerage practices, please refer to the Brokerage Practices section of this brochure. Item 6 Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management We do not accept performance-based fees or participate in side-by-side management. 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. Performance-based fees are fees that are based on a share of capital gains or capital appreciation of a client's account. Our fees are calculated as described in the Advisory Business section 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. 10  Item 7 Types of Clients We offer investment advisory services to individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations, other business entities, and pooled investment vehicles In general, we require a minimum of $1,000,000 to open and maintain an advisory account. At our discretion, we may waive this minimum account size. For example, we may waive the minimum if you appear to have significant potential for increasing your assets under our management. We may also combine account values for you and your minor children, joint accounts with your spouse, and other types of related accounts to meet the stated minimum. Item 8 Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss METHODS OF ANALYSIS We use the following methods of analysis in formulating our investment advice and/or managing client assets: Fundamental Analysis. We attempt to measure the intrinsic value of a security by looking at economic and financial factors (including the overall economy, industry conditions, and the financial condition and management of the security itself) to determine if it is a good fit for client portfolios. Fundamental analysis does not attempt to anticipate market movements. This presents a potential risk, as the price of a security can move up or down along with the overall market regardless of the economic and financial factors considered in evaluating the investment. Risks for all forms of analysis. Our securities analysis method relies on the assumption that the securities we purchase and sell, the rating agencies that review these securities, and other publicly- available sources of information about these securities, are providing accurate and unbiased data. While we are alert to indications that data may be incorrect, there is always a risk that our analysis may be compromised by inaccurate or misleading information. We use the following strategy in managing client accounts, provided that such strategy is appropriate to the needs of the client and consistent with the client's investment objectives, risk tolerance, and time horizons, among other considerations: Long-term purchases. We purchase securities with the idea of holding them in the client's account for a year or longer. Typically we employ this strategy when: • we believe the securities to present good long-term value, and/or • we want exposure to a particular asset class over time. A risk in a long-term purchase strategy is that by holding the security for this length of time, we may not take advantage of short-term trading gains that could be profitable to a client. Moreover, as is the case with short-term strategies, a security may decline sharply in value before we make the recommendation to sell. Our investment strategies and advice may vary depending upon each client's specific financial situation. As such, we determine investments and allocations based upon your predefined objectives, risk tolerance, time horizon, financial horizon, financial information, liquidity needs, and other various suitability factors. Your restrictions and guidelines may affect the composition of your portfolio. 11  Options. We use "Options" for both hedging and strategic purposes. An option is a contract that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset at a specific price on or before a certain date (the "expiration date"). The two types of options are calls and puts. A call gives the holder the right to buy an asset at a certain price within a specific period of time. Calls are similar to having a long position on a stock. Buyers of calls hope that the stock will increase substantially before the option expires. A put gives the holder the right to sell an asset at a certain price within a specific period of time. Puts are very similar to having a short position on a stock. Buyers of puts hope that the price of the stock will fall before the option expires. We incorporate using options to hedge and protect portfolio's as well as to exploit growth opportunities when its consistent with our clients objectives and risk tolerance. Different Advisors employ different strategies based on their own assessment of the macro conditions and appropriateness of any given strategy. Advisors can offer other strategies not employing Options in the client portfolio's. Clear and concise communication with each client determines how the advisor will manage a portfolio. Risk: Options are complex investments and can be very risky, especially if the investor does not own the underlying stock. In certain situations, an investor's risk can be unlimited. Other option trading risks are: • The complexity of some option strategies is a significant risk on its own. • Option trading exchanges or markets and option contracts themselves are open to changes at all times. • Options markets have the right to halt the trading of any options, thus preventing investors from realizing value. If an options brokerage firm goes insolvent, investors trading through that firm may be affected. Internationally traded options have special risks due to timing across borders. • Risk of erroneous reporting of exercise value. • • 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 prior to and throughout 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 risk of loss that you should be prepared to bear. We do not represent or guarantee that our services or methods of analysis can or will predict future results, successfully identify market tops or bottoms, or insulate clients from losses due to market corrections or declines. We cannot offer any guarantees or promises that your financial goals and objectives will be met. Past performance is in no way an indication of future performance. 12  Recommendation of Particular Types of Securities As disclosed under the Advisory Business section in this brochure, we primarily recommend exchange traded funds ("ETFs") and mutual funds. However, we may recommend other types of investments as appropriate for you since each client has different needs and different tolerance for risk. Each type of security has its own unique set of risks associated with it and it would not be possible to list here all of the specific risks of every type of investment. Even within the same type of investment, risks can vary widely. However, in very general terms, the higher the anticipated return of an investment, the higher the risk of loss associated with it. Mutual Funds and ETFs: Mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs) 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. Exchange traded funds 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. Bonds: Corporate debt securities (or "bonds") are typically safer investments than equity securities, but their risk can also vary widely based on: the financial health of the issuer; the risk that the issuer might default; when the bond is set to mature; and, whether or not the bond can be "called" prior to maturity. When a bond is called, it may not be possible to replace it with a bond of equal character paying the same rate of return. Cash Management We manage cash balances in your account based on the yield, and the financial soundness of the money markets and other short term instruments. Money Market Funds: A money market fund is technically a security. The fund managers attempt to keep the share price constant at $1/share. However, there is no guarantee that the share price will stay at $1/share. If the share price goes down, you can lose some or all of your principal. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") notes that "While investor losses in money market funds have been rare, they are possible." In return for this risk, you should earn a greater return on your cash than you would expect from a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insured savings account (money market funds are not FDIC insured). Next, money market fund rates are variable. In other words, you do not know how much you will earn on your investment next month. The rate could go up or go down. If it goes up, that may result in a positive outcome. However, if it goes down and you earn less than you expected to earn, you may end up needing more cash. A final risk you are taking with money market funds has to do with inflation. Because money market funds are considered to be safer than other investments like stocks, long-term average returns on money market funds tends to be less than long term average returns on riskier investments. Over long periods of time, inflation can eat away at your returns. 13  Certificates of Deposit: Certificates of deposit ("CD") are generally a safe type of investment since they are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company ("FDIC") up to a certain amount. However, because the returns are generally low, there is risk that inflation outpaces the return of the CD. Certain CDs are traded in the market place and not purchased directly from a banking institution. In addition to trading risk, when CDs are purchased at a premium, the premium is not covered by the FDIC. Private Placements: A private placement (nonpublic offering) is an illiquid security sold to qualified investors and are not publicly traded nor registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Risk: Private placements generally carry a higher degree of risk due to illiquidity. Most securities that are acquired in a private placement will be restricted securities and must be held for an extended amount of time and therefore cannot be sold easily. The range of risks are dependent on the nature of the partnership and are disclosed in the offering documents. Item 9 Disciplinary Information Private Wealth Advisors has been registered and providing investment advisory services since 2007. Neither our firm nor any of our management persons has any reportable disciplinary information. Item 10 Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations We have not provided information on other financial industry activities and affiliations because we do not have any relationship or arrangement that is material to our advisory business or to our clients with any of the types of entities listed below. 1. broker-dealer, municipal securities dealer, or government securities dealer or broker. 2. investment company or other pooled investment vehicle (including a mutual fund, closed-end investment company, unit investment trust, private investment company or "hedge fund," and offshore fund). 3. other investment adviser or financial planner. 4. futures commission merchant, commodity pool operator, or commodity trading advisor. 5. banking or thrift institution. 6. accountant or accounting firm. 7. lawyer or law firm. 8. insurance company or agency. 9. pension consultant. 10.real estate broker or dealer. 11.sponsor or syndicator of limited partnerships. As discussed in the Advisory Business section of this Brochure, we serve as general partner and investment adviser PWA Real Estate Fund Gateway, LLC, master fund to PWA Gateway Blocker, LLC, a feeder fund ("Funds")., private real estate Funds ("Fund") . Investors and prospective investors should refer to the Funds' offering documents for a complete description of the risks, investment objectives and strategies, fees and other relevant information pertaining to investments in the Funds. Clients of our firm may also be investors in or solicited to invest in the Funds and are advised that fees charged by the Funds are separate and apart from the advisory fees charged by our firm for managing separate accounts. 14  Item 11 Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading Description of Our Code of Ethics We strive to comply with applicable laws and regulations governing our practices. Therefore, our Code of Ethics includes guidelines for professional standards of conduct for persons associated with our firm. Our goal is to protect your interests at all times and to demonstrate our commitment to our fiduciary duties of honesty, good faith, and fair dealing with you. All persons associated with our firm are expected to adhere strictly to these guidelines. Our Code of Ethics also requires that certain persons associated with our firm submit reports of their personal account holdings and transactions to a qualified representative of our firm who will review these reports on a periodic basis. Persons associated with our firm are also required to report any violations of our Code of Ethics. Additionally, we maintain and enforce written policies reasonably designed to prevent the misuse or dissemination of material, non-public information about you or your account holdings by persons associated with our firm. Clients or prospective clients may obtain a copy of our Code of Ethics by contacting us at the telephone number on the cover page of this brochure. Participation or Interest in Client Transactions We serve as the general partner or are affiliated with one or more private funds (private pooled investment vehicles) in which you may be solicited to invest. Our Company, certain members of its management, and other knowledgeable employees may acquire, directly or indirectly, investment interests in our funds or have other financial interests (e.g. General Partner, Officers, Board Members, etc.) in the funds. This presents a conflict of interest because we have investments and/or are compensated by the private funds. Conflicts that arise are mitigated through our Company's fiduciary obligation to act in the best interest of our clients, contractual limitations that govern our activities as adviser or general partner, as applicable, and the requirement of our Company not to place its interests before its clients' interests when managing the funds. If you are an investor in the private funds, refer to the private funds' offering documents for detailed disclosures regarding the private funds. 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 eliminate 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. Item 12 Brokerage Practices 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 (see Item 15— Custody, below). 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. In limited circumstances, we may also recommend Interactive Brokers, LLC ("Interactive Brokers"), an unaffiliated SEC-registered broker-dealer and FINRA /NYSE/SIPC member. 15  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 you 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 14 (Client referrals and other compensation). You should consider these conflicts of interest when selecting your custodian. We do not open the account for you, although we may assist you in doing so. If you do not wish to place your assets with Schwab, then we cannot manage your account. 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 use 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. In addition to commissions, Schwab charges you a flat dollar amount as a "prime broker" or "trade away" fee for each trade that we have executed by a different broker-dealer but where the securities bought or the funds from the securities sold are deposited (settled) into your Schwab account. These fees are in addition to the commissions or other compensation you pay the executing broker-dealer. Because of this, in order to minimize your trading costs, we have Schwab execute most trades for your account. 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. 16  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™ 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 17  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. These services are not contingent upon us committing any specific amount of business to Schwab in trading commissions or assets in custody. 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. In some cases, the services that Schwab pays for are provided by an affiliate of ours or by another party that has some pecuniary, financial or other interests in us (or in which we have such an interest). This creates an additional 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. Research and Other Soft Dollar Benefits In selecting or recommending a broker-dealer, we will consider the value of research and additional brokerage products and services a broker-dealer has provided or will provide to our clients and our firm. Receipt of these additional brokerage products and services are considered to have been paid for with "soft dollars." Because such services could be considered to provide a benefit to our firm, we have a conflict of interest in directing your brokerage business. We could receive benefits by selecting a particular broker-dealer to execute your transactions, and the transaction compensation charged by that broker-dealer might not be the lowest compensation we might otherwise be able to negotiate. Products and services that we may receive from broker-dealers may consist of research data and analyses, financial publications, recommendations, or other information about particular companies and industries (through research reports and otherwise), and other products or services (e.g., software and data bases) that provide lawful and appropriate assistance to our firm in the performance of our investment decision-making responsibilities. Consistent with applicable rules, brokerage products and services consist primarily of computer services and software that permit our firm to effect securities transactions and perform functions incidental to transaction execution. We use such products and services in our general investment decision making, not just for those accounts for which commissions may be considered to have been used to pay for the products or services. The test for determining whether a service, product or benefit obtained from or at the expense of a broker constitutes "research" under this definition is whether the service, product, or benefit assists our firm in investment decision-making for discretionary client accounts. Services, products, or benefits that do not assist in investment decision-making for discretionary client accounts do not qualify as "research." Also, services, products or benefits that are used in part for investment decision-making for discretionary client accounts and in part for other purposes (such as accounting, corporate administration, recordkeeping, performance attribution analysis, client reporting, or investment decision-making for the firm's own investment accounts) constitute "research" only to the extent that they are used in investment decision-making for discretionary client accounts. 18  Before placing orders with a particular broker-dealer, we determine that the commissions to be paid are reasonable in relation to the value of all the brokerage and research products and services provided by that broker-dealer. In some cases, the commissions charged by a particular broker for a particular transaction or set of transactions may be greater than the amounts charged by another broker-dealer that did not provide research services or products. We do not exclude a broker-dealer from receiving business simply because the broker-dealer does not provide our firm with soft dollar research products and services. However, we may not be willing to pay the same commission to such broker-dealer as we would have paid had the broker-dealer provided such products and services. The products and services we receive from broker-dealers will generally be used in servicing all of our clients' accounts. Our use of these products and services will not be limited to the accounts that paid commissions to the broker-dealer for such products and services. In addition, we may not allocate soft dollar benefits to your accounts proportionately to the soft dollar credits the accounts generate. As part of our fiduciary duties to you, we endeavor at all times to put your interests first. You should be aware that the receipt of economic benefits by our firm is considered to create a conflict of interest. We have instituted certain procedures governing soft dollar relationships including preparation of a brokerage allocation budget, mandated reporting of soft dollar irregularities, annual evaluation of soft dollar relationships, and an annual review of our brochure to ensure adequate disclosures of conflicts of interest regarding our soft dollar relationships. 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. Directed Brokerage We require that you direct our firm to execute transactions through TD Ameritrade or Interactive Brokers. As such, we may be unable to achieve the most favorable execution of your transactions and you may pay higher brokerage commissions than you might otherwise pay through another broker- dealer that offers the same types of services. Not all advisers require their clients to direct brokerage. Block Trades We will typically purchase or sell the same securities for several clients at approximately the same time by combining multiple orders of shares for advisory accounts we manage (this practice is commonly referred to as "block trading"). Generally, we combine multiple orders for shares of the same securities purchased for discretionary accounts; however, we do not combine orders for non- discretionary accounts. Additionally, we may also execute transactions for clients independently as necessary to manage the client's account. Non-discretionary accounts and accounts executing independent trades may pay different costs than accounts participating in block trades. In such cases, we may not be able to buy and sell the same quantities of securities for you and you may pay higher commissions, fees, and/or transaction costs than clients who enter into discretionary arrangements with our firm. Item 13 Review of Accounts Martin L. Mazorra, Managing Member, manages accounts in the firm's non-wrap program. Your accounts will be monitored on a periodic basis and account reviews will be conducted at least semi- annually to ensure the advisory services provided to you and that the portfolio mix is consistent with your current investment needs and objectives. Additional reviews may be conducted based on various circumstances, including, but not limited to: 19  • contributions and withdrawals, • year-end tax planning, • market moving events, • security specific events, and/or, • changes in your risk/return objectives. We will provide you with written reports annually or semi-annually, and at your request. Reports we provide to you typically contain relevant account and/or market-related information such as an inventory of account holdings and account performance. You will receive trade confirmations and monthly or quarterly statements from your account custodian(s). Item 14 Client Referrals and Other Compensation Please refer to the Brokerage Practices section above for disclosures on research and other benefits we may receive resulting from our relationship with Schwab. We do not receive any compensation from any third party in connection with providing investment advice to you. We have entered into arrangements with an employee of our firm, under which the individual receives compensation from us for the establishment of new client relationships. The compensation is a percentage of the advisory fee you pay us for as long as you are our client, or until such time as our agreement with the solicitor expires. You will not be charged additional fees based on this compensation arrangement. Incentive based compensation is contingent upon you entering into an advisory agreement with us. Therefore, the individual has a financial incentive to recommend us to you for advisory services. This creates a conflict of interest; however, you are not obligated to retain us for advisory services. Item 15 Custody As paying agent for our firm, your independent custodian will directly debit your account(s) for the payment of our advisory fees. This ability to deduct our advisory fees from your accounts causes our firm to exercise limited custody over your funds or securities. We do not have physical custody of any of your funds and/or securities. Your funds and securities will be held with a bank, broker-dealer, or other independent, qualified custodian. You will receive account statements from the independent, qualified custodian(s) holding your funds and securities at least quarterly. The account statements from your custodian(s) will indicate the amount of our advisory fees deducted from your account(s) each billing period. You should carefully review account statements for accuracy. You should compare our statements with the statements from your account custodian(s) to reconcile the information reflected on each statement. If you have a question regarding your account statement, or if you did not receive a statement from your custodian, please contact us directly at the telephone number on the cover page of this brochure. Standing Letter of Authorization Our firm, or persons associated with our firm, may effect transfers from your accounts to one or more third parties designated, in writing, by you without obtaining written consent for each separate, individual transaction, as long as you have provided us with written authorization to do so. Such written authorization is known as a Standing Letter of Authorization. An adviser with authority to conduct such third party transfers on a client's behalf has access to the client's assets, and therefore has custody of the client's assets in any related accounts. 20  However, we do not have to obtain a surprise annual audit, as we otherwise would be required to by reason of having custody, as long as we meet the following criteria: 1. You provide a written, signed instruction to the qualified custodian that includes the third party's name and address or account number at a custodian; 2. You authorize us in writing to direct transfers to the third party either on a specified schedule or from time to time; 3. Your qualified custodian verifies your authorization (e.g., signature review) and provides a transfer of funds notice to you promptly after each transfer; 4. You can terminate or change the instruction; 5. We have no authority or ability to designate or change the identity of the third party, the address, or any other information about the third party; 6. We maintain records showing that the third party is not a related party to us nor located at the same address as us; and 7. Your qualified custodian sends you, in writing, an initial notice confirming the instruction and an annual notice reconfirming the instruction. We hereby confirm that we meet the above criteria. Private Investment Companies We serve as the general partner and investment adviser to PWA Real Estate Fund Gateway, LLC, master fund to PWA Gateway Blocker, LLC, a feeder fund ("Funds") real estate private investments in which our clients are solicited to invest. The Funds are offered to certain sophisticated investors, who meet certain requirements under applicable state and/or federal securities laws. Investors to whom the Funds are offered will receive a private placement memorandum and other offering documents. In our capacity as investment adviser to the Funds, we will have access to the Funds' cash and securities, and therefore we have custody over such cash and securities. We provide each investor in the Fund with audited annual financial statements. If you are a Fund investor and have questions regarding the financial statements or if you did not receive a copy, contact us directly at the telephone number on the cover page of this brochure. Item 16 Investment Discretion Before we can buy or sell securities on your behalf, you must first sign our discretionary management agreement and the appropriate trading authorization forms. You may grant our firm discretion over the selection and amount of securities to be purchased or sold for your account(s) without obtaining your consent or approval prior to each transaction. You may specify investment objectives, guidelines, and/or impose certain conditions or investment parameters for your account(s). For example, you may specify that the investment in any particular stock or industry should not exceed specified percentages of the value of the portfolio and/or restrictions or prohibitions of transactions in the securities of a specific industry or security. Refer to the Advisory Business section in this brochure for more information on our discretionary management services. If you have entered into non-discretionary arrangements with our firm, we will obtain your approval prior to the execution of any transactions for your account(s). You have an unrestricted right to decline to implement any advice provided by our firm on a non-discretionary basis. 21  Item 17 Voting Client Securities 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. Item 18 Financial Information We have not filed a bankruptcy petition at any time in the past ten years. Item 19 Requirements for State-Registered Advisers We are a federally registered investment adviser; therefore, we are not required to respond to this item. Item 20 Additional Information Your Privacy 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, 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. 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, the trade error will be corrected in the trade error account of the executing broker-dealer and you will not keep the profit. 22  Class Action Lawsuits We do not determine if securities held by you are the subject of a class action lawsuit or 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 for injuries as a result of actions, misconduct, or negligence by issuers of securities held by you. 23
