Item 4: Advisory Business
Firm Description
Rinaldi Wealth Management, Inc (“RWM”) was founded in 2017 and began offering investment
advisory services in 2021. Dustin Rinaldi is 100% owner. RWM is a fee-only investment management
firm.
Types of Advisory Services
RWM is a fee-only firm, meaning the only compensation we receive is from our Clients for our services.
From time to time, RWM recommends third-party professionals such as attorneys, accountants, tax
advisors, insurance agents, or other financial professionals. Clients are never obligated to utilize any
third-party professional we recommend. RWM is not affiliated with nor does PWM receive any
compensation from third-party professionals we may recommend.
Asset Management Services
RWM offers discretionary asset management services to advisory Clients. RWM will offer Clients
ongoing asset management services through determining individual investment goals, time horizons,
objectives, and risk tolerance. Investment strategies, investment selection, asset allocation, portfolio
monitoring and the overall investment program will be based on the above factors. The Client will
authorize RWM discretionary authority to execute selected investment program transactions as stated
within the Investment Advisory Agreement. When deemed appropriate for the Client, RWM will hire
Sub-Advisors to manage all or a portion of the assets in the Client account. RWM has full discretion to
hire and fire Sub-Advisors as they deem suitable. Sub-Advisors will maintain the models or investment
strategies agreed upon between Sub-Advisor and RWM. Sub-Advisors execute trades on behalf of RWM
in Client accounts. RWM will be responsible for the overall direct relationship with the Client. RWM
retains the authority to terminate the Sub-Advisor relationship at RWM’s discretion.
Financial Planning Services
Financial planning services include a comprehensive evaluation of an investor's current and future
financial state will be provided by using currently known variables to predict future cash flows, asset
values and withdrawal plans. RWM will use current net worth, tax liabilities, asset allocation, and
future retirement and estate plans in developing financial plans. Typical topics reviewed in a financial
plan may include but are not limited to:
Financial goals: Based on an individual's or a family's clearly defined financial goals, including
funding a college education for the children, buying a larger home, starting a business, retiring
on time or leaving a legacy. Financial goals should be quantified and set to milestones for
tracking.
Personal net worth statement: A snapshot of assets and liabilities serves as a benchmark for
measuring progress towards financial goals.
Cash flow analysis: An income and spending plan determines how much can be set aside for
debt repayment, savings and investing each month.
Retirement strategy: A strategy for achieving retirement independent of other financial
priorities. Including a strategy for accumulating the required retirement capital and its planned
lifetime distribution.
Page 4 of 33
v. 9.16.2025
Comprehensive risk management plan: Identify all risk exposures and provide the necessary
coverage to protect the family and its assets against financial loss. The risk management plan
includes a full review of life and disability insurance, personal liability coverage, property and
casualty coverage, and catastrophic coverage.
Long-term investment plan: Include a customized asset allocation strategy based on specific
investment objectives and a risk profile. This investment plan sets guidelines for selecting,
buying and selling investments and establishing benchmarks for performance review.
Tax reduction strategy: Identify ways to minimize taxes on personal income to the extent
permissible by the tax code. The strategy should include identification of tax-favored investment
vehicles that can reduce taxation of investment income.
Estate planning: Help update accounts, review beneficiaries for retirement accounts and life
insurance, provide a second look at your current estate planning documents, and prompt you to
update your plan when the legal environment changes or you have major life events such as a
marriage, death, or births.
If a conflict of interest exists between the interests of RWM and the interests of the Client, the Client is
under no obligation to act upon RWM’s recommendation. If the Client elects to act on any of the
recommendations, the Client is under no obligation to affect the transaction through RWM.
ERISA Plan Services
RWM provides service to qualified retirement plans including 401(k) plans, 403(b) plans, pension and
profit-sharing plans, cash balance plans, and deferred compensation plans. RWM will act as a 3(21)
advisor:
Limited Scope ERISA 3(21) Fiduciary: RWM will serve as a limited scope ERISA 3(21) fiduciary that will
advise, help and assist plan sponsors with their investment decisions. As an investment advisor RWM
has a fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of the Client. The plan sponsor is still ultimately
responsible for the decisions made in their plan, though using RWM will help the plan sponsor delegate
liability by following a diligent process.
Fiduciary Services are:
Provide investment advice to the Client about asset classes and investment alternatives
available for the Plan in accordance with the Plan’s investment policies and objectives. Client
will make the final decision regarding the initial selection, retention, removal and addition of
investment options. RWM acknowledges that it is a fiduciary as defined in ERISA section 3 (21)
(A) (ii).
Provide investment advice to the Plan Sponsor with respect to the selection of a qualified
default investment alternative for participants who are automatically enrolled in the Plan or
who have otherwise failed to make investment elections. The Client retains the sole
responsibility to provide all notices to the Plan participants required under ERISA Section 404(c)
(5) and 404(a)-5.
Assist in monitoring investment options by preparing periodic investment reports that
document investment performance, consistency of fund management and make
recommendations to maintain, remove or replace investment options.
Meet with Client on a periodic basis to discuss the reports and the investment
recommendations.
Page 5 of 33
v. 9.16.2025
Non-fiduciary Services are:
Assist in the education of Plan participants about general investment information and the
investment alternatives available to them under the Plan. Client understands RWM’s
assistance in education of the Plan participants shall be consistent with and within the scope
of the Department of Labor’s definition of investment education (Department of Labor
Interpretive Bulletin 96-1). As such, RWM is not providing fiduciary advice as defined by
ERISA 3(21)(A)(ii) to the Plan participants. RWM will not provide investment advice
concerning the prudence of any investment option or combination of investment options for
a particular participant or beneficiary under the Plan.
Assist in the group enrollment meetings designed to increase retirement plan participation
among the employees and investment and financial understanding by the employees.
RWM may provide these services or, alternatively, may arrange for the Plan’s other providers to offer
these services, as agreed upon between RWM and Client.
RWM has no responsibility to provide services related to the following types of assets (“Excluded
Assets”):
Employer securities;
Real estate (except for real estate funds or publicly traded REITs);
Stock brokerage accounts or mutual fund windows;
Participant loans;
Non-publicly traded partnership interests;
Other non-publicly traded securities or property (other than collective trusts and similar
vehicles); or
Other hard-to-value or illiquid securities or property.
Excluded Assets will not be included in calculation of Fees paid to RWM on the ERISA Agreement.
Specific services will be outlined in detail to each plan in the 408(b)2 disclosure.
Client Tailored Services and Client Imposed Restrictions
The goals and objectives for each Client are documented in our Client files. Investment strategies are
created that reflect the stated goals and objectives. Clients may impose restrictions on investing in
certain securities or types of securities.

Item 5: Fees and Compensation
Asset Management Services
RWM offers discretionary direct asset management services to advisory Clients for an annual fee of
no more than 1.5%.
The annual fee is negotiable based upon certain criteria (e.g., historical relationship, type of assets,
anticipated future earning capacity, anticipated future additional assets, dollar amounts of assets to be
managed, related accounts, account composition, negotiations with Clients, etc.). Fees are billed
quarterly in advance based on the amount of assets managed as of the close of business on the last
business day of the previous quarter. Lower fees for comparable services may be available from other
sources.
RWM utilizes the services of a Third-Party Asset Manager/Sub-Advisor to manage Clients’ investment
portfolios. RWM will enter into Sub-Advisor agreements with other registered investment advisor firms.
When using Sub-Advisors, the Client will pay additional fees to the Sub-Advisor as described in the Client
Agreement that will be executed. The Sub-Advisor’s fees are exclusive of the total fee disclosed by
RWM. Sub-Advisor directly deducts their portion of the fee separately from RWM.
Clients may terminate their account, including accounts held with sub-advisers, within five (5) business
days of signing the Investment Advisory Agreement with no obligation and without penalty. After five
(5) business days, the Client may cancel by providing written notice to RWM and RWM may terminate
advisory services with thirty (30) days written notice to the Client.
ERISA Plan Services
The annual fees are based on the market value of the Included Assets and will not exceed 1%. The
annual fee is negotiable and may be charged as a percentage of the Included Assets. Fees will be
charged quarterly in advance based on the assets as calculated by the custodian or record keeper of
the Included Assets (without adjustments for anticipated withdrawals by Plan participants or other
anticipated or scheduled transfers or distribution of assets). If the services to be provided start any
time other than the first day of the quarter the fee will be prorated based on the number of days
remaining in the quarter. If this Agreement is terminated prior to the end of the billing cycle, RWM
shall be entitled to a prorated fee based on the number of days during the fee period services were
provided or Client will be due a prorated refund of fees for days services were not provided in the
billing cycle.
The fee schedule, which includes compensation of RWM for the services, is described in detail in
Schedule A of the ERISA Plan Agreement. The Plan is obligated to pay the fees; however, the Plan
Sponsor may elect to pay the fees. Client may elect to be billed directly or have fees deducted from Plan
Assets. RWM does not reasonably expect to receive any additional compensation, directly or indirectly,
for its services under this Agreement. If additional compensation is received, RWM will disclose this
compensation, the services rendered, and the payer of compensation. RWM will offset the
compensation against the fees agreed upon under the Agreement.
Page 7 of 33
v. 9.16.2025
Financial Planning Services
RWM charges a fixed fee based on complexity and unique Client needs for financial planning. Prior to
the planning process the Client will be provided an estimated plan fee.
Fixed Fee: Financial Planning Services are offered based on a flat fee between $450-$5000.
Services are completed and delivered inside of 30 days contingent upon timely delivery of all required
documentation. Client may cancel within five (5) business days of signing Agreement with no obligation
and without penalty.
If the Client cancels after five (5) business days, any unearned fees will be refunded to the Client, or any
unpaid earned fees will be due to RWM. RWM reserves the right to waive the fee should the Client
implement the plan through RWM.
Fee Payment
Fees for Asset Management Services are deducted from a designated Client account to facilitate billing
or they may pay RWM directly. The Client must consent in advance to direct debiting of their investment
account. Asset Management Services fees are billed quarterly in advance.
Fees for ERISA Services will either be deducted from Plan assets or paid directly to RWM. The Client
must consent in advance to direct debiting of their investment account. ERISA Services fees are billed
quarterly in advance.
Fees for financial plans will be billed to the Client and paid directly to RWM via:
Check – to be remitted by Client to RWM.
Electronic Payment - ACH, Debit Card, or Credit Card paid via a third-party payment processor
in which the client will securely input payment information and pay the advisory fee through a
secure portal. RWM will not have continuous access to the Client’s banking information.
Financial Planning Services do not require any prepayment of fees of more than $1,200 per Client and
six months or more in advance.
If the Client cancels after five (5) business days, any unearned fees will be refunded to the Client, or any
unpaid earned fees will be due to RWM.
Additional Client Fees
Custodians may charge brokerage commissions, transaction fees, and other related costs on the
purchases or sales of mutual funds, equities, bonds, options and exchange-traded funds. Mutual funds,
money market funds and exchange-traded funds also charge internal management fees, which are
disclosed in the fund’s prospectus. RWM does not receive any compensation from these fees. All of
these fees are in addition to the management fee you pay to RWM. For more details on the brokerage
practices, see Item 12 of this brochure.
RWM does not receive any external compensation for the sale of securities to Clients.

v. 9.16.2025
Item 6: Performance-Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management
RWM does not have performance-based fees and does not engage in side-by-side management.
Performance based compensation may create an incentive for RWM to recommend an investment that
may carry a higher degree of risk to the Client.

v. 9.16.2025
Item 7: Types of Clients
RWM generally provides investment advice to individuals and high net worth individuals. Client
relationships vary in scope and length of service.

v. 9.16.2025
Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
Methods of Analysis
Security analysis methods include asset allocation or mutual fund and ETF analysis. Investing in
securities involves risk of loss that Clients should be prepared to bear. Past performance is not a
guarantee of future returns.
Asset Allocation
Asset allocation is an investment strategy that aims to balance risk and reward by
apportioning a portfolio's assets according to an individual's goals, risk tolerance and investment
horizon. The three main asset classes - equities, fixed-income, and cash and equivalents - have different
levels of risk and return, so each will behave differently over time.
Mutual Fund and ETF Analysis
We look at the funds' or ETFs’ investment objectives and policies. Performance over time in terms of
growth, income, and total return. We look to see if the fund is a diversified portfolio, this is a factor
because owning various types of funds can help reduce the volatility of a portfolio over the long term.
Having a diversified portfolio does not mean you will never lose money.
We also look at the underlying assets in a mutual fund or ETF in an attempt to determine if there is
significant overlap in the underlying investments held in other fund(s) in the client’s portfolio. We also
monitor the funds or ETFs in an attempt to determine if they are continuing to follow their stated
investment strategy.
A risk of mutual fund and/or ETF analysis is that, as in all securities investments, past performance does
not guarantee future results. A manager who has been successful may not be able to replicate that
success in the future. In addition, as we do not control the underlying investments in a fund or ETF,
managers of different funds held by the client may purchase the same security, increasing the risk to the
client if that security were to fall in value. There is also a risk that a manager may deviate from the
stated investment mandate or strategy of the fund or ETF, which could make the holding(s) less suitable
for the client’s portfolio.
Sub-Advisors utilized by RWM may use various methods of analysis to determine the proper strategy for
the client referred and these will be disclosed in the Sub-Advisor’s Form ADV Part 2. Investing in
securities involves risk of loss that clients should be prepared to bear. Past performance is not a
guarantee of future returns. Other strategies utilized by Sub-Advisors may include long-term purchases,
short-term purchases, trading, and option writing (including covered options, uncovered options, or
spreading strategies).
In developing a financial plan for a Client, RWM’s analysis may include cash flow analysis, investment
planning, risk management, tax planning and estate planning. Based on the information gathered, a
detailed strategy is tailored to the Client’s specific situation.
The main sources of information include financial newspapers and magazines, annual reports,
prospectuses, and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Page 11 of 33
v. 9.16.2025
Investment Strategies
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 RWM.
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.
Material Risks
All investment programs have certain risks that are borne by the investor. Our investment approach
constantly keeps the risk of loss in mind. Investors face the following investment risks and should discuss
these risks with RWM:
Market Risk: The prices of securities 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 tolerate potentially sharp declines in market value.
Interest-rate Risk: Fluctuations in interest rates may cause investment prices to fluctuate. For
example, when interest rates rise, yields on existing bonds become less attractive, causing their
market values to decline.
Inflation Risk: When any type of inflation is present, a dollar today will buy more than a dollar
next year, because purchasing power is eroding at the rate of inflation.
Currency 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.
Reinvestment 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.
Liquidity 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.
Management Risk: The advisor’s investment approach may fail to produce the intended results.
If the advisor’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 Risk: 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.
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
Page 12 of 33
v. 9.16.2025
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 interest rate is the sum of a real interest rate and an expected
inflation rate.
Investment Companies Risk: 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. Adviser has no control over the risks taken by the
underlying funds in which client invests.
Long-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. Trading risk: Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There is no
assurance that the investment objective of any fund or investment will be achieved.
The risks associated with utilizing a Sub-Advisor also includes:
Manager Risk: Sub-Advisor fails to execute the stated investment strategy
Business Risk: Sub-Advisor has financial or regulatory problems
The specific risks associated with the portfolios of the Sub-Advisor’s which is disclosed in the
Sub-Advisor’s Form ADV Part 2.

representatives of a broker-dealer.
Futures or Commodity Registration
Neither RWM nor its affiliated representatives are registered or have an application pending to register

Material Relationships Maintained by this Advisory Business and Conflicts of Interest
Dustin Rinaldi is President of Rinaldi Foundation for Financial Education. In this business he provides
complimentary educational seminars on retirement. He spends approximately 1% of his time in this
business practice. This practice represents a conflict of interest because it gives an incentive to
recommend services from RWM. This conflict is mitigated by disclosures, procedures and the firm’s
fiduciary obligation to place the best interest of the Client first and the Clients are not required to
purchase any products. Clients have the option to purchase these products through another
professional of their choosing.
Page 15 of 33
v. 9.16.2025
Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and
Personal Trading
Code of Ethics Description
The affiliated persons (affiliated persons include employees and/or independent contractors) of RWM
have committed to a Code of Ethics (“Code”). The purpose of our Code is to set forth standards of
conduct expected of RWM affiliated persons and addresses conflicts that may arise. The Code defines
acceptable behavior for affiliated persons of RWM. The Code reflects RWM 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.
RWM’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 RWM 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.
RWM’s Code is based on the guiding principle that the interests of the Client are our top priority. RWM’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.
RWM 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
RWM 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
RWM and its affiliated persons will 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 RWM with copies of their brokerage
statements.
Page 16 of 33
v. 9.16.2025
The Chief Compliance Officer of RWM is Dustin Rinaldi. 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 treatment over associated
persons’ transactions.
Client Securities Recommendations or Trades and Concurrent Advisory Firm
RWM 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 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 RWM with copies of their brokerage statements.
The Chief Compliance Officer of RWM is Dustin Rinaldi. He reviews all trades of the affiliated persons

v. 9.16.2025
Item 12: Brokerage Practices
Factors Used to Select Broker-Dealers for Client Transactions
RWM 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 affect 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. RWM will select appropriate brokers based
on a number of factors including but not limited to their relatively low transaction fees and reporting
ability. RWM 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 RWM. RWM does not receive any portion of the trading fees.
Research and Other Soft Dollar Benefits
The Securities and Exchange Commission defines soft dollar practices as arrangement under which
products or services other than execution services are obtained by RWM from or through a broker-
dealer in exchange for directing Client transactions to the broker-dealer. Although RWM has no
formal soft dollar arrangements, RWM will receive products, research and/or other services from
custodians or broker-dealers connected to client transactions or “soft dollar benefits”. As permitted
by Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, RWM receives economic benefits as a result
of commissions generated from securities transactions by the custodian or broker-dealer from the
accounts of RWM. RWM cannot ensure that a particular client will benefit from soft dollars or the
client’s transactions paid for the soft dollar benefits. RWM does not seek to proportionately allocate
benefits to client accounts to any soft dollar benefits generated by the accounts. A conflict of interest
exists when RWM receives soft dollars which could result in higher commissions charged to Clients. This
conflict is mitigated by the fact that RWM 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
RWM does not receive client referrals from any custodian or third party in exchange for using that
broker-dealer or third party.
Directed Brokerage
In circumstances where a Client directs RWM to use a certain broker-dealer, RWM still has a fiduciary
duty to its Clients. The following may apply with Directed Brokerage: RWM'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.
Aggregating Securities Transactions for Client Accounts
RWM is authorized in its discretion to aggregate purchases and sales and other transactions made for
the account with purchases and sales and transactions in the same securities for other Clients of RWM.
All Clients participating in the aggregated order shall receive an average share price with all other

transaction costs shared on a pro-rated basis. If aggregation if not allowed or infeasible and individual
transactions occur (e.g., withdrawal or liquidation requests, odd-late trades, etc.) an account may
potentially be assessed higher costs or less favorable prices than those where aggregation has occurred.

Item 13: Review of Accounts
Periodic Reviews
Account reviews are performed quarterly by the Chief Compliance Officer of RWM. Account reviews are
performed more frequently when market conditions dictate. 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, reviewing target allocations of each asset class to
identify if there is an opportunity for rebalancing, and reviewing accounts for tax loss harvesting
opportunities.
Financial plans generated are updated as requested by the Client and pursuant to a new or amended
agreement, RWM suggests updating at least annually.
Review of Client Accounts on Non-Periodic Basis
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.
Content of Client Provided Reports and Frequency
Clients receive written account statements no less than quarterly for managed accounts. Account
statements are issued by RWM’s custodian. Client receives confirmations of each transaction in account
from Custodian and an additional statement during any month in which a transaction occurs.
Performance reports will be provided by RWM upon request by Clients with assets under management.

v. 9.16.2025
Item 16: Investment Discretion
Discretionary Authority for Trading
RWM requires discretionary authority to manage securities accounts on behalf of Clients. RWM 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.
RWM allows Client’s 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. These restrictions must be provided to RWM in writing.
The Client approves the custodian to be used, and the commission rates paid to the custodian. RWM
does not receive any portion of the transaction fees or commissions paid by the Client to the custodian.

v. 9.16.2025
Item 17: Voting Client Securities
Proxy Votes
RWM 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. When
assistance on voting proxies is requested, RWM will provide recommendations to the Client. If a conflict
of interest exists, it will be disclosed to the Client.

v. 9.16.2025
Item 18: Financial Information
Balance Sheet
A balance sheet is not required to be provided because RWM does not serve as a custodian for Client
funds or securities and RWM 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
RWM has no condition that is reasonably likely to impair our ability to meet contractual commitments to
our Clients.

Professional Certifications
The CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM (CFP®)
The CFP® certification is a voluntary certification; no federal or state law or regulation requires financial
planners to hold CFP® certification. It is recognized in the United States and a number of other countries
for its (1) high standard of professional education; (2) stringent code of conduct and standards of
practice; and (3) ethical requirements that govern professional engagements with Clients.
To attain the right to use the CFP® marks, an individual must satisfactorily fulfill the following
requirements:
Education – Complete an advanced college-level course of study addressing the financial
planning subject areas that CFP Board’s studies have determined as necessary for the
competent and professional delivery of financial planning services, and attain a bachelor’s
degree from a regionally accredited United States college or university (or its equivalent from
a foreign university). CFP Board’s financial planning subject areas include insurance planning
and risk management, employee benefits planning, investment planning, income tax
planning, retirement planning, and estate planning;
Examination – Pass the comprehensive CFP® Certification Examination. The examination
includes case studies and Client scenarios designed to test one’s ability to correctly diagnose
financial planning issues and apply one’s knowledge of financial planning to real world
circumstances;
Experience – Complete at least three years of full-time financial planning-related experience
(or the equivalent, measured as 2,000 hours per year); and
Ethics – Agree to be bound by CFP Board’s Standards of Professional Conduct, a set of
documents outlining the ethical and practice standards for CFP® professionals.
Individuals who become certified must complete the following ongoing education and ethics
requirements in order to maintain the right to continue to use the CFP® marks:
Continuing Education – Complete 30 hours of continuing education hours every two years,
including two hours on the Code of Ethics and other parts of the Standards of Professional
Conduct, to maintain competence and keep up with developments in the financial planning
field; and
Ethics – Renew an agreement to be bound by the Standards of Professional
Conduct. The Standards prominently require that CFP® professionals provide
financial planning services at a fiduciary standard of care. This means CFP®
professionals must provide financial planning services in the best interests of their
Clients.
CFP® professionals who fail to comply with the above standards and requirements
may be subject to CFP Board’s enforcement process, which could result in
suspension or permanent revocation of their CFP® certification.
