Blisk, Chief Executive Officer INVESTMENT SUPERVISORY SERVICES ("ISS") INDIVIDUAL PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT Our firm, through our Investment Adviser Representatives ("IAR") provides continuous advice to a client regarding the investment of client funds based on the individual needs of the client. Through personal discussions in which goals and objectives based on a client's particular circumstances are established, we develop a client's personal investment profile and create and manage a portfolio based on that profile. During our data gathering process, we determine the client's individual objectives, time horizons, risk tolerance, and liquidity needs. As appropriate, we also review and discuss a client's prior investment history, as well as family composition and background. We manage these advisory accounts on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis. Clients will indicate their choice on our Investment Advisory Agreement ("IAA") as to how the account will be managed. Account supervision is guided by the client's stated objectives (i.e., capital appreciation, growth, income, or growth and income), as well as tax considerations. Clients may impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain securities, types of securities, cash positions or industry sectors. Our investment recommendations are not limited to any specific product or service offered by a broker/dealer or insurance company and will generally include advice regarding the following securities:  Exchange-listed securities  Securities traded over-the-counter  Corporate debt securities (other than commercial paper)  Municipal securities  Mutual fund shares  Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)  United States governmental securities  Options contracts on securities Page 4 Because some types of investments involve certain additional degrees of risk, they will only be implemented/recommended when consistent with the client's stated investment objectives, tolerance for risk, liquidity and suitability. Our firm, through our IARs may provide portfolio management services to clients using model asset allocation portfolios. Each model portfolio is designed to meet a particular investment goal. Sub-Adviser Model Portfolio Strategies Corbett Road Capital Management ("CRCM"), an SEC RIA and affiliate of Spire, offers model portfolio strategies as a sub-adviser to some of Spire's clients. CRCM and Spire share a common ownership through a joint venture where a percentage of the fees due to CRCM as the sub-adviser are paid to Spire. These strategies are managed by dually registered Investment Adviser Representatives of Spire and CRCM. Corbett Road Capital Management, LLC provides investment management services to Advisors and Institutions. The firm offers smarttactical™ Strategies with either their proprietary macrocast™ or microcast™ risk overlays, tax-efficient tactical, actively managed, and asset allocation strategies. Clients can blend these offerings allowing the final solution to be custom- tailored to the client’s needs.  Tactical Solutions - Smarttactical™ Strategies enable a portfolio to be more adaptive to changing market environments. These strategies can invest in any exchange traded asset class and are not restricted by market cap, sector, or geographic location. They may also hold a substantial fixed income or cash position based upon the macrocast™ or microcast™ risk indicators.  Active Solutions - Actively managed strategies seeking long-term growth of capital. Designed to remain fully invested throughout the economic cycle, weathering market volatility, and generating alpha through stock selection.  Hybrid Solutions - This tax-effective hybrid model combines tactical and passive risk management solutions designed to be used in taxable accounts. The hybrid solution seeks to capture the risk reduction benefits of tactical management in a tax- efficient manner.  Passive Solutions - Passive by nature, strategic by design—this asset allocation solutions offers a simple way to build a broadly diversified core portfolio. Available in allocation mixes spanning the target risk spectrum, the passive strategies establish a client's long-term base portfolio using low-cost, passive ETF products. While strategic adjustments are made on a year-to-year basis, these portfolios are designed to remain invested throughout the economic cycle and market fluctuations. Providing broad exposure to global equity, fixed income, and real estate markets, the passive solutions can be used as a standalone solution or in conjunction with other strategies. Corbett Road believes the foundation of long-term investing success is proper risk management that goes beyond the diversification of traditional asset allocation.

CRCM’s management fees for Sub-Advised Separately Managed Account management are based upon a percentage of assets under management and range from 0.25% to 0.50% (See CRCM’s ADV 2A for more details). MANAGER OF MANAGERS PROGRAM Spire Wealth Management, LLC, through its IARs may offer advisory management services to clients through our Manager of Managers Program. We provide the client with an asset allocation strategy developed through personal discussions in which the client's goals and objectives are established based on the client's particular circumstances. IARs perform management searches of various registered investment advisers. Based on the client's individual circumstances and needs we determine which selected registered investment adviser's ("adviser" or "asset manager") portfolio management style is appropriate for that client. Factors considered in making this determination include account size, manager's fee, risk tolerance, the opinion of each client and the investment philosophy of the selected asset manager. Clients should refer to the asset manager's Firm Brochure or other disclosure document for a full description of the services offered. Client meetings are available on a regular basis, or as determined by the client, to review the account. On an ongoing basis, the IAR monitors the performance of the asset manager(s). If we determine that a particular adviser is not providing sufficient management services to the client or is not managing the client's portfolio in a manner consistent with that client's objectives and risk tolerance then we may move the client's portfolio to a different asset manager and/or program sponsor. Under this scenario, our firm retains the discretion to hire and fire the asset manager and/or move the client's portfolio to a different program. We remain available to meet with the client to review and update, as necessary, the individual objectives and risk tolerances. However, should there be any material change in the client's personal and/or financial situation, we should be notified immediately to determine whether any review and/or revision of the client's investment profile is warranted. FINANCIAL PLANNING Our advisors may provide financial planning services. Financial planning is an evaluation of a client's current and future financial state by using currently known variables to predict future cash flows, asset values and withdrawal plans. Through the financial planning process, all questions, information and analysis are considered as they impact and are impacted by the entire financial and life situation of the client. Clients purchasing the Financial Plan (vs. the Financial Consultation) will receive a written report which provides the client with a financial plan designed to assist the client to achieve his or her financial goals and objectives. In general, the financial plan can address any or all of the following areas: Page 8  PERSONAL: We may review family records, budgeting, personal liability, estate information and financial goals.    TAX & CASH FLOW: We may analyze the client's income tax and spending and planning for past, current and future years; then illustrate the impact of various investments on the client's current income tax and future tax liability. INVESTMENTS: We may analyze investment alternatives and their effect on the client's portfolio. INSURANCE: We may review existing policies to ensure proper coverage for life, health, disability, long-term care, liability, home and automobile.  RETIREMENT: We may analyze current strategies and investment plans to help the client achieve his or her retirement goals.  DEATH & DISABILITY: We may review the client's cash needs at death, income needs of surviving dependents, estate planning and disability income.  ESTATE: We may assist the client in assessing and developing long-term strategies, including as appropriate, living trusts, wills, review estate tax, powers of attorney, asset protection plans, nursing homes, Medicaid and elder law. Our advisors gather required information through in-depth personal interviews. Information gathered includes the client's current financial status, tax status, future goals, returns objectives and attitudes towards risk. We carefully review documents supplied by the client, which may include a questionnaire completed by the client, and prepare a written report. Should the client choose to implement the recommendations contained in the plan, we suggest the client work closely with his/her attorney, accountant, insurance agent, and/or advisor. Implementation of financial plan recommendations is entirely at the client's discretion. We also provide general non-securities advice on topics that may include tax and budgetary planning, estate planning and business planning. Financial Planning recommendations are not limited to any specific product or service offered by a broker-dealer or insurance company. All recommendations are of a generic nature. Select planning services are available through some of our advisors, including subscription-based services. The delivery and fees vary among our investment advisor representatives. Please consult your advisor for specifics on their program and fees. Spire's advisory fees are separate from and in addition to the fees paid to Lockwood. Separate account managers who are unaffiliated with Lockwood will generally also assess their own separate and additional fees. Participation in a wrap program may cost the participant more or less than purchasing such services separately. AMOUNT OF MANAGED ASSETS As of the end of 2025, Spire Wealth Management managed $4.5 billion of client's assets on both a discretionary and non-discretionary basis. This includes our client's assets managed by third-party money managers/other RIAs. Page 9 Item 5 Fees and Compensation In most cases, the annual account management fees are payable monthly in arrears and are based upon a percentage of assets under management and generally range from .02% to 2.25%. Values are calculated using the average daily balance provided by our custodians. Please see individual advisor for their fee schedule, which will be disclosed on the Investment Advisory Agreement. Certain separately managed account programs may charge fees in arrears and will have differing methods of computing their fees. Please refer to the respective account program brochure for specific information on their fees and schedules. While Spire does not have a minimum account size, it is generally preferred to have a minimum of $25,000 in assets under management. This account size may be negotiable under certain circumstances. Spire may group certain related client accounts for the purposes of achieving the minimum account size and determining the annualized fee. Fees may also be billed on a fixed rate schedule as authorized by the client agreement. Fees may be withdrawn directly from a specified account or by invoicing the client. Custodial statements will reflect any fees deducted from the accounts. Limited Negotiability of Advisory Fees: Although Spire Wealth Management, LLC has established the aforementioned fee schedule(s), the IAR retains the discretion to negotiate alternative fees on a client-by-client basis. Client facts, circumstances and needs are considered in determining the fee schedule. These include the complexity of the client, assets to be placed under management, anticipated future additional assets; related accounts; portfolio style, account composition, reports, among other factors. The specific annual fee schedule is identified in the Investment Advisory Agreement (IAA) between the adviser and each client. IARs in their separate capacity may be licensed as registered representatives of Spire Securities, an affiliated broker-dealer and/or licensed as insurance agents or brokers. These individuals are able to implement investment recommendations for clients for separate and typical compensation (i.e., commissions, 12b-1 fees or other sales-related forms of compensation). This presents a conflict of interest to the extent that these individuals recommend that a client invest in a security which results in a commission being paid to the individuals. Spire IARs will not charge advisory fees in addition to commissions or markups when securities products are sold through Spire Securities. Clients are not under any obligation to engage these individuals when considering implementation of advisory recommendations and clients have the option to purchase investment products that our IARs recommend through other brokers or agents that are not affiliated with us. The implementation of any or all recommendations is solely at the discretion of the client. Financial Planning Fees Spire Wealth Management, LLC's Financial Planning fee is determined based on the nature of the services being provided by the individual advisor and the complexity of each client's circumstances. All fees are agreed upon prior to entering into a contract with any client. Our Financial Planning fees are negotiated between the client and the planner and are based on Page 10 a variety of factors, including but not limited to, the nature and scope of the engagement. Fees are typically calculated and charged on an hourly basis. Although the length of time it will take to provide a Financial Plan will depend on each client's personal situation, we will provide an estimate for the total hours at the start of the advisory relationship. Our Financial Planning fees may be calculated and charged on a fixed fee basis, depending on the specific arrangement reached with the client. Planning fees may be charged on an hourly basis or on a subscription-based plan. We may request a retainer upon completion of our initial fact-finding session with the client. The balance is due upon completion of the plan. The client may be billed quarterly or on an annual basis based on actual hours accrued. Financial planning fees are paid by check or by credit card. General Information Termination of the Advisory Relationship: A client agreement may be canceled at any time, by either party, for any reason upon receipt of 30 days written notice. As disclosed above, certain financial planning fees may be paid in advance of services provided. Upon termination of any account, any prepaid, unearned fees will be promptly refunded. In calculating a client's reimbursement of fees, we will pro rate the reimbursement according to the number of days remaining in the billing period. Mutual Fund Fees: All fees paid to Spire Wealth Management, LLC for investment advisory services are separate and distinct from the fees and expenses charged by mutual funds and/or ETFs to their shareholders. These fees and expenses are described in each fund's prospectus. These fees will generally include a management fee, other fund expenses, and a possible distribution fee and or a 12b-1 fee. If the fund also imposes sales charges, a client may pay an initial or deferred sales charge. Spire Wealth will not participate in any distribution fees or sales charges. A client could invest in a mutual fund directly, without our services. In that case, the client would not receive the services provided by our firm which are designed, among other things, to assist the client in determining which funds are most appropriate to each client's financial condition and objectives. Accordingly, the client should review both the fees charged by the funds and our fees to fully understand the total amount of fees to be paid by the client and to thereby evaluate the advisory services being provided. Many fund families will also make available share classes that may offer reduced or no fee fund options. There may be restrictions on some of these funds. Our advisor's intent is to act in the best interests of our client and therefore will endeavor to seek to purchase the most appropriate share class that is available at the client's account custodian. A client's IAR is under no obligation to seek out lower cost share classes available through other account custodians. Wrap Fee Programs and Separately Managed Account Fees: Clients participating in separately managed account programs may be charged various program fees in addition to the advisory fee charged by our firm. Such fees may include the investment advisory fees of the independent advisers, which may be charged as part of a wrap fee arrangement. In evaluating such an arrangement, the client should also consider that, depending upon the level of the fee charged by the broker-dealer, the amount of portfolio activity in the client's account, and other factors, the wrap fee may or may not exceed the aggregate cost of such Page 11 services if they were to be provided separately. Additional Fees and Expenses: In addition to our advisory fees, clients are also responsible for the fees and expenses charged by custodians and imposed by broker dealers, including, but not limited to, any transaction charges imposed by a broker dealer with which an independent investment manager effects transactions for the client's account(s). Please refer to the "Brokerage Practices" section (Item 12) of this Form ADV for additional information. Asset-Based Pricing ("ABP"): In order to maintain similar pricing between each of our custodians, we have negotiated the ABP amounts to similar levels between the custodians. In doing so, Spire's negotiated rate with one of its custodians allows Spire to retain a portion of the ABP fee charged on some of our advisory accounts, that are under the ABP model. This creates a conflict of interest for Spire to recommend this custodian over others and to recommend ABP over non-ABP pricing. Clients are hereby advised that this arrangement incentivizes Spire to recommend that clients engage in ABP fee arrangements, as Spire would receive both its investment advisory fee and would also retain whatever portion of the separately assessed account fee remained after payment of the client’s Asset-Based transaction fee to the broker-dealer/custodian. However, our IARs are not compensated based on (i) the recommendation of any custodian over another, or (ii) whether a client selects ABP or non-ABP pricing. In any event, clients are free to select the custodian that they prefer—with or without an ABP pricing arrangement. In an ABP arrangement, the broker- dealer/custodian's applicable fee may decrease as the account assets increase. In the alternative, the broker-dealer/custodian could charge a separate commission or transaction fee upon the execution of an account transaction. This is referred to as Transaction Based Pricing. Transaction-Based Pricing ("TBP"): Under a TBP arrangement, the amount of fees charged by the broker-dealer/custodian to the client will vary depending upon the number of and type of transactions that are placed for the account. Clients maintain full discretion over whether to engage in TBP or ABP arrangements. Under either scenario, the fees charged by the respective broker-dealer/custodian are separate from, and in addition to any fees payable by the client to Spire. If Spire is asked to recommend which transaction fee arrangement is most beneficial to a client, it would generally base its recommendation upon whether, based upon anticipated account size and trade volume, Spire reasonably believes that the client would benefit from one pricing arrangement over the other. However, Spire’s investment decisions are often more heavily driven by security selection and anticipated market conditions, as opposed to the amount of commission/transaction fees payable by clients to the account broker-dealer/custodian. In addition, there can be no assurance that the volume of transactions will be consistent from year-to-year based on market changes and security selection. Therefore, given the variances in trading volume and pricing arrangements, any decision by clients to engage in either an Asset-Based or Transaction-Based pricing might not ultimately benefit the client’s account. Once the client has decided on the pricing type, it will be the responsibility of the client to determine if a change should be made. Spire's advisors will not monitor the account for the pricing type. The client is responsible for payment of any ABP or TBP fees to the broker-dealer custodian. However, Spire may assess and collect this fee from the client to be paid to the custodian. Page 12 Grandfathering of Minimum Account Requirements Pre-existing advisory clients are subject to Spire Wealth Management, LLC's minimum account requirements and advisory fees in effect at the time the client entered into the advisory relationship. Therefore, our firm's minimum account requirements may differ among some clients. Limited Prepayment of Fees: Under no circumstances do we require or solicit payment of fees in excess of $1,200 more than six months in advance of services rendered. Item 6 Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management Spire Wealth Management, LLC, does not charge performance-based fees. Item 7 Types of Clients Spire Wealth Management, LLC provides advisory services to the following types of clients: Individuals   High net worth individuals  Corporations or other businesses  Trusts and Retirement Plans Item 8 Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies, Risk of Loss Our IARs may use any of the following methods of analysis in formulating their investment advice and/or managing client assets: Economic Analysis. We analyze overall economic trends and data as well as fiscal and monetary policies to get a broad view of capital markets. Areas of analysis may include, but are not limited to valuations, inflation, technical analysis, the aggregate economy, liquidity, sentiment, the breath of the market, and momentum. the analysis enables us to develop viewpoints indicating which asset classes, types, sectors, and styles may be overvalued/risky vs. undervalued. 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 company itself) to determine if the company is underpriced (indicating it may be a good time to buy) or overpriced (indicating it may be time to sell). 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 stock. Technical Analysis. We analyze past market movements and apply that analysis to the present in an attempt to recognize recurring patterns of investor behavior and potentially predict future price movement. Technical analysis does not consider the underlying financial condition of a company. This presents a risk in that a poorly-managed or financially unsound company may underperform regardless of market movement. Page 13 Cyclical Analysis. In this type of technical analysis, we measure the movements of a particular stock against the overall market in an attempt to predict the price movement of the security. Quantitative Analysis. We use mathematical models in an attempt to obtain more accurate measurements of a company's quantifiable data, such as the value of a share price or earnings per share and predict changes to that data. A risk in using quantitative analysis is that the models used may be based on assumptions that prove to be incorrect. Qualitative Analysis. We subjectively evaluate non-quantifiable factors such as quality of management, labor relations, and strength of research and development factors not readily subject to measurement and predict changes to share price based on that data. A risk in using qualitative analysis is that our subjective judgment may prove incorrect. Asset Allocation. Rather than focusing primarily on securities selection, we attempt to identify an appropriate ratio of securities, fixed income, and cash suitable to the client's investment goals and risk tolerance. A risk of asset allocation is that the client may not participate in sharp increases in a particular security, industry or market sector. Another risk is that the ratio of securities, fixed income, and cash will change over time due to stock and market movements and, if not corrected, will no longer be appropriate for the client's goals. Mutual Fund and/or ETF Analysis. We look at the experience and track record of the manager of the mutual fund or ETF in an attempt to determine if that manager has demonstrated an ability to invest over a period of time and in different economic conditions. 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 another 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. Third-Party Money Manager Analysis. We examine the experience, expertise, investment philosophies, and past performance of independent third-party investment managers in an attempt to determine if that manager has demonstrated an ability to invest over a period of time and in different economic conditions. We monitor the manager's underlying holdings, strategies, concentrations and leverage as part of our overall periodic risk assessment. Additionally, as part of our due-diligence process, we survey the manager's compliance and business enterprise risks. A risk of investing with a third-party manager who has been successful in the past is that he/she may not be able to replicate that success in the future. In addition, as we do not control the underlying investments in a third-party manager's portfolio, there is also a risk that a manager may deviate from the stated investment mandate or strategy of the portfolio, making it a less Page 14 suitable investment for our clients. Moreover, as we do not control the manager's daily business and compliance operations, we may be unaware of the lack of internal controls necessary to prevent business, regulatory or reputational deficiencies. Risks for all forms of analysis. Our securities analysis methods rely on the assumption that the companies whose 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. INVESTMENT STRATEGIES Our IARs may use any of the following strategies in managing client accounts, provided that such strategies are appropriate to the needs of the client and consistent with the client's investment objectives, risk tolerance, and time horizons, among other considerations: Tactical Strategies: Tactical strategies allow for a client's allocation to risk (asset allocation) to be adjusted based upon the outlook provided by economic analysis. These adjustments may be more sensitive or less sensitive to the relied upon economic analysis, based upon the overarching tactical methodology and the degree of impact to the economic outlook the data provides. 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 be currently undervalued, and/or  we want exposure to a particular asset class over time, regardless of the current projection for this class. 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 gains that could be profitable to a client. Moreover, if our predictions are incorrect, a security may decline sharply in value before we make the decision to sell. Short-term purchases: When utilizing this strategy, we purchase securities with the idea of selling them within a relatively short time (typically a year or less). We do this in an attempt to take advantage of conditions that we believe will soon result in a price swing in the securities we purchase. Short sales: We borrow shares of a stock for your portfolio from someone who owns the stock on a promise to replace the shares on a future date at a certain price. Those borrowed shares are then sold. On the agreed-upon future date, we buy the same stock and return the shares to the original owner. We engage in short selling based on our determination that the stock will go down in price after we have borrowed the shares. If we are correct and the stock price has gone down since the shares were purchased from the original owner, the client account realizes the profit. Margin transactions: We will purchase stocks for your portfolio with money borrowed from your brokerage account. This allows you to purchase more stock than you would be able to with your available cash and allows us to purchase stock without selling other holdings. Option writing: We may use options as an investment strategy. An option is a contract that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an asset (such as a share of Page 15 stock) at a specific price on or before a certain date. An option, just like a stock or bond, is a security. An option is also a derivative, because it derives its value from an underlying asset. The two types of options are calls and puts:  A call gives us the right to buy an asset at a certain price within a specific period of time. We will buy a call if we have determined that the stock will increase substantially before the option expires.  A put gives us the holder the right to sell an asset at a certain price within a specific period of time. We will buy a put if we have determined that the price of the stock will fall before the option expires. We will use options to speculate on the possibility of a sharp price swing. We will also use options to "hedge" a purchase of the underlying security; in other words, we will use an option purchase to limit the potential upside and downside of a security we have purchased for your portfolio. We use "covered calls", in which we sell an option on security you own. In this strategy, you receive a fee for making the option available, and the person purchasing the option has the right to buy the security from you at an agreed-upon price. We use a "spreading strategy", in which we buy two or more option contracts (for example, a call option that you buy and a call option that you sell) for the same underlying security. This effectively puts you on both sides of the market, but with the ability to vary price, time and other factors. Risk of Loss: Clients should understand that investing in any securities, including mutual funds, involves a risk of loss of both income and principal. We ask that you work with us to help us understand your tolerance for risk. Certain products and product types incur unique or novel risks, which are discussed more fully below. Leveraged funds: Leveraged funds are not suitable for all investors. Leveraged index funds employ strategies that seeks to magnify exposure to an index on a daily basis. They are intended for use by investors who expect the relevant index to go up and want accelerated investment gains when it does so. However, there is an increased risk of accelerated losses if the market declines. The more a fund invests in leveraged instruments, the more the leverage will magnify any gains or losses on those investments. A leveraged fund’s use of derivatives, such as futures, options and swap agreements, may expose the fund’s investors to additional risks that they would not be subject to if they invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. Leveraged index funds seek to provide investment results that match the performance of a specific benchmark, before fees and expenses, on a daily basis. Because these funds seek to track the performance of their benchmark on a daily basis, mathematical compounding, especially with respect to those funds that use leverage as part of their investment strategy, may prevent a fund from correlating with the monthly, quarterly, annual or other period performance of its benchmark. Due to the compounding of daily returns, leveraged funds’ returns over periods other than one day will likely differ in amount and possibly direction from the benchmark return for the same period. For those funds that consistently apply leverage, the value of the fund’s shares will tend to increase or decrease more than the value of any increase or decrease in its benchmark index. Alternative Investments: We may introduce certain qualified clients to unaffiliated private investments. Our role relative to the private investments is generally limited to our evaluation of the benefits and limitations of the investment, which evaluation will be based exclusively upon Page 16 our review of the investment’s documentation and/or information provided by the investment, its sponsor or issuer, and/or third-party provider. Our clients are under absolutely no obligation to consider or make an investment in a private investment(s). Private investments generally involve various risk factors, including, but not limited to, potential for complete loss of principal, liquidity constraints and lack of transparency, a complete discussion of which is set forth in each investment’s offering documents, which will be provided to each client for review and consideration. Unlike liquid investments that a client may own, private investments do not provide daily liquidity or pricing. Each prospective client investor will be required to complete a Subscription Agreement, Private Placement Memorandum, or similar offering document pursuant to which the client shall establish that he/she is qualified for investment and acknowledge and accept the various risk factors that are associated with such an investment. In the event that we reference private investments owned by the client on any supplemental account reports, the value(s) for all private investments owned by the client will reflect the most recent valuation provided by the investment’s sponsor or issuer. The current value of any private investment could be significantly more or less than the original purchase price or the price reflected in any supplemental account report. Unless otherwise agreed upon with the client, the value of any private investment will be included in assets under management for the purposes of calculating our fees. Item 9 Disciplinary Information We are required to disclose any legal or disciplinary events that are material to a client's or prospective client's evaluation of our advisory business or the integrity of our management. found on the Each Investment Adviser Representative that has any disciplinary disclosure will have that record available on FINRA's BrokerCheck website (www.FINRA.org) or calling toll free at 800-289-9999. Information can also be Investment Adviser Public Disclosure site (https://www.adviserinfo.sec.gov/IAPD/Default.aspx). During the period of Jan. 1, 2014, to May 31, 2018, Spire was found to have recommended or held for advisory clients mutual fund share classes that charged 12b-1 fees instead of lower- cost share classes of the same funds for which the clients may been eligible. Spire was found to have failed to adequately disclose the receipt of these fees in our ADV. Spire self-reported these violations to the SEC. The SEC accepted Spire's offer of settlement and entered an administrative order. Without admitting or denying the findings, Spire consented to a cease and desist, censure and disgorgement of all 12b-1 fee revenue and return that revenue to the clients. Item 10 Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations Some advisory personnel of Spire Wealth Management, LLC, are separately licensed as registered representatives of Spire Securities, LLC (a FINRA registered broker-dealer). These individuals can effect separate securities transactions for which they will receive separate, yet customary compensation. Page 17 Clients should be aware that the receipt of this additional compensation creates a conflict of interest and could affect the judgment of these individuals when making recommendations. Policies and procedures have been put into place to monitor and restrict this activity. Some advisory personnel of our firm, in their individual capacities, are agents for various insurance companies. As such, these individuals are able to receive separate, yet customary commission compensation resulting from implementing insurance product transactions on behalf of advisory clients. Clients, however, are not under any obligation to engage these individuals when considering implementation of insurance recommendations. The implementation of any or all recommendations is solely at the discretion of the client. Clients should be aware that the receipt of this additional compensation by Spire Wealth Management, LLC and its management persons or IARs creates a conflict of interest that may impair the objectivity of our firm and these individuals when making advisory recommendations. Spire Wealth Management, LLC takes the following steps to address this conflict:  we disclose to clients the existence of all material conflicts of interest.  we disclose to clients that they are not obligated to purchase recommended investment products from our employees or affiliated companies.  we collect, maintain and document accurate, complete and relevant client background information, including the client's financial goals, objectives and risk tolerance.  we require that our employees seek prior approval of any outside employment activity so that we may ensure that any conflicts of interests in such activities are properly addressed.  we periodically monitor these outside employment activities to verify that any conflicts of interest continue to be properly addressed by our firm. Spire also benefits from a Client Benefit Agreement which provides for a pre-negotiated reimbursement of Transfer of Account Exit Fees when a new client transfers to Schwab. These funds are used to cover the fees that our clients' accounts will bear if the assets of those accounts are transferred to Schwab. Schwab will credit those fees to the client's accounts directly and not through Spire. Schwab will also assist Spire by offering payment for eligible third-party vendor services and services provided by Schwab affiliates, on a negotiated basis, for Marketing, Technology, Consulting or Research expenses. These payments are based upon transferred assets held at Schwab. Some of Spire's advisory personnel are dually licensed with Corbett Road Capital Management ("CRCM") - an SEC RIA. CRCM and Spire share a common ownership through a joint venture between Spire's parent company, Spire Investment Partners and Corbett Road Investment Partners. Page 18 Item 11 Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading Our firm has adopted a Code of Ethics which sets forth high ethical standards of business conduct that we require of our employees, including compliance with applicable federal securities laws. Spire Wealth Management, LLC and our personnel owe a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith towards our clients, and have an obligation to adhere not only to the specific provisions of the Code of Ethics but to the general principles that guide the Code. Our Code of Ethics includes policies and procedures for the review of securities transactions reports. Among other things, our Code of Ethics also requires the prior approval of any acquisition of securities in a limited offering (e.g., private placement) or an initial public offering. Our code also provides for oversight, enforcement and recordkeeping provisions. Spire Wealth Management, LLC's Code of Ethics further includes the firm's policy prohibiting the use of material non-public information. While we do not believe that we have any particular access to non-public information, all employees are reminded that such information may not be used in a personal or professional capacity. A copy of our Code of Ethics is available to our advisory clients and prospective clients via our internet site (www.spireip.com). You may also request a copy by email sent to info@spireip.com, or by calling us at 703-657-6060. Spire Wealth Management, LLC and individuals associated with our firm are prohibited from engaging in principal transactions. Spire Wealth Management, LLC and individuals associated with our firm are prohibited from engaging in agency cross transactions. Item 12 Brokerage Practices For discretionary clients, Spire Wealth Management, LLC requires these clients to provide us with written authority to determine the broker dealer to use and the commission costs that will be charged to these clients for these transactions. These disclosures are made using the Investment Advisory Agreement (IAA). These clients must include any limitations on this discretionary authority in this written authority statement. Clients may change/amend these limitations as required. Such amendments must be provided to us in writing. Spire Wealth Management, LLC does not have any soft-dollar arrangements and does not receive any soft-dollar benefits. As a matter of practice, Spire Wealth Management, LLC may block client trades and allocate accordingly. Our clients may receive volume discounts due to this blocking. Spire Wealth Management, LLC may recommend that clients establish brokerage accounts with the Schwab Advisor Services, a division of Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. ("Schwab"), a FINRA registered broker-dealer, member SIPC, to maintain custody of clients' assets and to effect trades Page 19 for their accounts. Although we may make this recommendation that clients establish accounts at Schwab, it is the client's decision to custody assets with Schwab. Spire Wealth Management, LLC is independently owned and operated and not affiliated with Schwab. Schwab provides Spire Wealth Management, LLC with access to its institutional trading and custody services, which are typically not available to Schwab retail investors. These services generally are available to independent investment advisers on an unsolicited basis, at no charge to them so long as a total of at least $10 million of the adviser's clients' assets are maintained in accounts at Schwab Institutional. Schwab's brokerage services include the execution of securities transactions, custody, research, and access to mutual funds and other investments that are otherwise generally available only to institutional investors or would require a significantly higher minimum initial investment. For our client accounts maintained in its custody, Schwab generally does not charge separately for custody services but is compensated by account holders through commissions and other transaction-related or asset-based fees for securities trades that are executed through Schwab or that settle into Schwab accounts. Schwab also will receive a fee (generally lower than the applicable commission on trades it executes) for clearance and settlement of trades executed through broker-dealers other than Schwab. Schwab’s fees for trades executed at other broker-dealers are in addition to the other broker-dealer’s fees. Thus, Spire may have an incentive to cause trades to be executed through Schwab rather than another broker-dealer. Spire, nevertheless, acknowledges its duty to seek best execution of trades for client accounts. Trades for client accounts held in custody at Schwab may be executed through a different broker-dealer than trades for Spire's other clients. Thus, trades for accounts custodied at Schwab may be executed at different times and different prices than trades for other accounts that are executed at other broker- dealers. Schwab Institutional also makes available to our firm other products and services that benefit Spire Wealth Management, LLC but may not directly benefit our clients' accounts. Many of these products and services may be used to service all or some substantial number of our client accounts, including accounts not maintained at Schwab. Schwab's products and services that assist us in managing and administering our clients' accounts include software and other technology that: i. provide access to client account data (such as trade confirmations and account statements) ii. facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts iii. provide research, pricing and other market data iv. facilitate payment of our fees from clients' accounts; and v. assist with back-office functions, recordkeeping and client reporting. Schwab Institutional also offers other services intended to help us manage and further develop our business enterprise. These services include: i. compliance, legal and business consulting Page 20 ii. publications and conferences on practice management and business succession; and iii. access to employee benefits providers, human capital consultants and insurance providers. Schwab may make available, arrange and/or pay third-party vendors for the types of services rendered to Spire Wealth Management, LLC. Schwab Institutional may discount or waive fees it would otherwise charge for some of these services or pay all or a part of the fees of a third-party providing these services to our firm. Schwab Institutional also provides other benefits such as educational events or occasional business entertainment of our personnel. In evaluating whether to recommend or require that clients custody their assets at Schwab, we may consider the availability of some of the foregoing products and services and other arrangements as part of the total mix of factors we consider and not solely on the nature, cost or quality of custody and brokerage services provided by Schwab, which creates a conflict of interest. Spire Wealth Management, LLC has an arrangement with National Financial Services LLC and Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC (collectively, and together with all affiliates, "Fidelity") through which Fidelity provides our firm with "institutional platform services." The institutional platform services include, among others, brokerage, custody, and other related services. Fidelity's institutional platform services that assist us in managing and administering clients' accounts include software and other technology that (i) provide access to client account data (such as trade confirmations and account statements); (ii) facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts; (iii) provide research, pricing and other market data; (iv) facilitate payment of fees from its clients' accounts; and (v) assist with back- office functions, recordkeeping and client reporting. Fidelity also offers other services intended to help our firm manage and further develop its advisory practice. Such services include, but are not limited to, performance reporting, financial planning, contact management systems, third party research, publications, access to educational conferences, roundtables and webinars, practice management resources, access to consultants and other third-party service providers who provide a wide array of business-related services and technology with whom Spire Wealth Management, LLC may contract directly. Spire Wealth Management, LLC is independently operated and owned and is not affiliated with Fidelity. Fidelity generally does not charge its advisor clients separately for custody services but is compensated by account holders through commissions and other transaction-related or asset- based fees for securities trades that are executed through Fidelity or that settle into Fidelity accounts (i.e., transactions fees are charged for certain no-load mutual funds, commissions are charged for individual equity and debt securities transactions). Fidelity provides access to many no-load mutual funds without transaction charges and other no-load funds at nominal transaction charges. As a result of receiving such services for no additional cost, we have an incentive to continue to use or expand the use of Fidelity's services. We examined this conflict of interest when we chose to enter into the relationship with Fidelity and have determined that the relationship is in the best interests of Spire Wealth Management, LLC's clients, and satisfies our client obligations, including our duty to seek best execution. Page 21 Spire Wealth Management, LLC has an arrangement with Pershing Advisor Solutions ("PAS") a Bank of New York Mellon Co. through which PAS provides our firm with "institutional platform services." The institutional platform services include, among others, brokerage, custody, and other related services. PAS's institutional platform services that assist us in managing and administering clients' accounts include software and other technology that a) provide access to client account data (such as trade confirmations and account statements); b) facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts; c) provide research, pricing and other market data; d) facilitate payment of fees from its clients' accounts; and e) assist with back-office functions, recordkeeping and client reporting. Determination of Best Execution among custodians A client may pay a commission that is higher than another qualified broker-dealer might charge to affect the same transaction where we determine in good faith that the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services received. In seeking best execution, the determinative factor is not the lowest possible cost, but whether the transaction represents the best qualitative execution, taking into consideration the full range of a broker-dealer's services, including the value of research provided, execution capability, commission rates, and responsiveness. Accordingly, while Spire Wealth Management, LLC will seek competitive rates, to the benefit of all clients, we may not necessarily obtain the lowest possible commission rates for specific client account transactions. Although the investment research products and services that may be obtained by us will generally be used to service all of our clients, a brokerage commission paid by a specific client may be used to pay for research that is not used in managing that specific client's account. Item 13 Review of Accounts REVIEWS: While the underlying securities within Individual Portfolio Management Services accounts are continually monitored, these accounts may be further reviewed, at least annually by their investment advisor representative. Accounts are reviewed in the context of each client's stated investment objectives and guidelines. More frequent reviews may be triggered by material changes in variables such as the client's individual circumstances, or the market, political or economic environment. REPORTS: In addition to the monthly statements and confirmations of transactions that clients receive from their custodians, our advisors may individually provide reports summarizing account performance, balances and holdings. These reports are produced by third party vendors believed to be reliable. MANAGER OF MANAGERS PROGRAM REVIEWS: The performance of the registered investment adviser(s) selected to manage client portfolios within our Manager of Managers Program is continually monitored by our advisor. More frequent reviews may be triggered by material changes in variables such as the client's individual circumstances, or the market, political or economic environment. REPORTS: In addition to the monthly statements and confirmations of transactions that these clients receive from their respective custodian, the asset manager(s) selected by Spire Wealth Management, LLC's advisors to manage the client's portfolio(s) within our Manager of Managers Program may provide the client with written quarterly performance reports. Unless otherwise contracted for, we do not typically provide additional reports. Page 22 FINANCIAL PLANNING SERVICES REVIEWS: While reviews may occur at different stages depending on the nature and terms of the specific engagement, typically no formal reviews will be conducted for Financial Planning clients unless otherwise contracted for. Item 14 Client Referrals and Other Compensation Schwab Advisor Network® (“the Service”). The Service is designed to help investors find an independent investment adviser. Schwab is a broker-dealer independent of and unaffiliated with Spire. Schwab does not supervise Advisor and has no responsibility for Spire's management of clients’ portfolios or Advisor’s other advice or services. Spire pays Schwab fees to receive client referrals through the Service. Spire's participation in the Service may raise potential conflicts of interest described below. Spire pays Schwab a Participation Fee on all referred clients’ accounts that are maintained in custody at Schwab and a Non-Schwab Custody Fee on all accounts that are maintained at, or transferred to, another custodian. The Participation Fee paid by Spire is a percentage of the fees the client owes to Spire or a percentage of the value of the assets in the client’s account, subject to a minimum Participation Fee. Spire pays Schwab the Participation Fee for so long as the referred client’s account remains in custody at Schwab. The Participation Fee is billed to Spire quarterly and may increase, decrease or be waived by Schwab from time to time. The Participation Fee is paid by Spire and not by the client. Spire has agreed not to charge clients, referred through the Service, fees or costs greater than the fees or costs Spire charges clients with similar portfolios who were not referred through the Service. Spire generally pays Schwab a Non-Schwab Custody Fee if custody of a referred client’s account is not maintained by, or assets in the account are transferred from Schwab. This fee does not apply if the client was solely responsible for the decision not to maintain custody at Schwab. The Non-Schwab Custody Fee is a one-time payment equal to a percentage of the assets placed with a custodian other than Schwab. The Non-Schwab Custody Fee is higher than the Participation Fees Advisor generally would pay in a single year. Thus, Spire will have an incentive to recommend that client accounts be held in custody at Schwab. The Participation and Non-Schwab Custody Fees will be based on assets in accounts of Spire's clients who were referred by Schwab and those referred clients’ family members living in the same household. Thus, Spire will have incentives to encourage household members of clients referred through the Service to maintain custody of their accounts and execute transactions at Schwab and to instruct Schwab to debit Spire's fees directly from the accounts. This service is available to clients who hold Schwab brokerage accounts. Certain types of retirement accounts, including, but not limited to Company Retirement Accounts, are not eligible. Clients may include individuals, institutions, pension plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, corporations and other entities other than government entities. As of June 2025, Spire Wealth Management is no longer participating in the receipt of new Page 23 referrals. However, as outlined above, the Firm is still responsible for the payment of fees for existing clients that initially were brought to the Firm through the SAN program. Fidelity Wealth Advisor Solutions®. Spire Wealth Management participates in the Fidelity Wealth Advisor Solutions® Program (the "WAS Program"), through which Spire receives referrals from Fidelity personnel and Workplace Advisors LLC (FPWA), a registered investment adviser and Fidelity Investments company. Spire is independent and not affiliated with FPWA or any Fidelity Investments company. FPWA does not supervise or control Spire, and FPWA has no responsibility or oversight for Spire's provision of investment management or other advisory services. Under the WAS Program, FPWA acts as a solicitor for Spire, and Spire pays referral fees to FPWA for each referral received based on Spire's assets under management attributable to each client referred by FPWA or members of each client’s household. The WAS Program is designed to help investors find an independent investment advisor, and any referral from FPWA to Spire does not constitute a recommendation or endorsement by FPWA of Spire's particular investment management services or strategies. More specifically, Spire pays the following amounts to FPWA for referrals: the sum of (i) an annual percentage of 0.10% of any and all assets in client accounts where such assets are identified as "fixed income" assets by FPWA and (ii) an annual percentage of 0.25% of all other assets held in client accounts. In addition, Spire has agreed to pay FPWA a minimum annual fee amount in connection with its participation in the WAS Program. These referral fees are paid by Spire and not the client. To receive referrals from the WAS Program, Spire must meet certain minimum participation criteria, but Advisor may have been selected for participation in the WAS Program as a result of its other business relationships with FPWA and its affiliates, including Fidelity Brokerage Services, LLC ("FBS"). As a result of its participation in the WAS Program, Spire has a conflict of interest with respect to its decision to use certain affiliates of FPWA, including FBS, for execution, custody and clearing for certain client accounts, and IAR has an incentive to suggest the use of FBS and its affiliates to its advisory clients, whether or not those clients were referred to Spire as part of the WAS Program. Under an agreement with FPWA, Spire has agreed that IAR will not charge clients more than the standard range of advisory fees disclosed in its Form ADV 2A Brochure to cover solicitation fees paid to FPWA as part of the WAS Program. Pursuant to these arrangements, Spire has agreed not to solicit clients to transfer their brokerage accounts from affiliates of FPWA or establish brokerage accounts at other custodians for referred clients other than when Spire's fiduciary duties would so require, and Advisor has agreed to pay FPWA a one-time fee equal to 0.75% of the assets in a client account that is transferred from FPWA’s affiliates to another custodian; therefore, Spire may have an incentive to suggest that referred clients and their household members maintain custody of their accounts with affiliates of FPWA. However, participation in the WAS Program does not limit Spire's duty to select brokers on the basis of best execution. Our advisors may also receive individual client referrals from outside of our SAN and WAS programs for investment advisory services. These may come from accountants, other RIAs or other professionals. If approved, Spire will pay to these promotors a portion of the management fee collected by Spire from the client. Our firm may pay referral fees to independent persons or firms ("Solicitors") for introducing clients to us. This includes our participation in the SAN and WAS programs detailed above. Whenever Page 24 we pay a referral fee, we require the Solicitor to provide the prospective client with a copy of this document (our Firm Brochure) and a separate disclosure statement that includes the following information: i. the Solicitor's name and relationship with our firm. ii. the fact that the Solicitor is being paid a referral fee. iii. the amount of the fee; and iv. whether the fee paid to us by the client will be increased above our normal fees in order to compensate the Solicitor. As a matter of firm practice, the advisory fees paid to us by clients referred by solicitors are not increased as a result of any referral. It is Spire Wealth Management, LLC's policy not to accept or allow our related persons to accept any form of compensation, including cash, sales awards or other prizes, from a non- client in conjunction with the advisory services we provide to our clients. We receive an economic benefit from our Custodians (Schwab, Fidelity, Pershing Advisory Services and TD Ameritrade) in the form of the support products and services they make available to us. These products and services, how they benefit us, and the related conflicts of interest are described above under Item 12 Brokerage Practices. The availability to us of these products and services is not based on us giving particular investment advice, such as buying particular securities for our clients. Notwithstanding the above compensation disclosure, transition assistance programs may be offered by Spire to attract certain investment adviser representatives. This transition assistance may include forgivable loans, which are based in part on the number of client and amount of assets managed by the investment adviser representative. As of December 2025, Spire Wealth Management is no longer participating in the receipt of new referrals. However, as outlined above, the Firm is still responsible for the payment of fees for existing clients that initially were brought to the Firm through the WAS program. Item 15 Custody Under government regulations, we are deemed to have custody of a client’s assets if the client authorizes us to instruct our custodians to deduct our advisory fees directly from the client’s account. Our custodians (Schwab, Fidelity and Pershing Advisor Solutions) maintain actual custody of clients’ assets. Clients receive account statements directly from these custodians at least quarterly. They will be sent to the email or postal mailing address the client provides to them. Clients should carefully review those statements promptly when received. We also urge clients to compare those account statements to the periodic consolidated statements that we may provide directly to our clients. We previously disclosed in the "Fees and Compensation" section (Item 5) of this Brochure that our firm directly debits advisory fees from client accounts. As part of this billing process, the client's custodian is advised of the amount of the fee to be deducted from that client's account. Page 25 On at least a quarterly basis, the custodian is required to send to the client a statement showing all transactions within the account during the reporting period. Because the custodian does not calculate the amount of the fee to be deducted, it is important for clients to carefully review their custodial statements to verify the accuracy of the calculation, among other things. Clients should contact us directly if they believe that there may be an error in their statement. Clients setting up Standing Letters of Authorization (SLOA) may have given our IARs custody in that they are providing them the means to move client assets from their managed accounts to other accounts or institutions. Our firm utilizes these SLOAs of our custodians to better service the needs of our clients. We have developed policies and procedures to monitor the use of these SLOAs, making sure that they are structured and used so that the IAR does not have discretion as to the amount, payee and or timing.. Structuring our procedures according to the guidance provided by the SEC to the IAA, we will adhere to those requirements provided in the guidance. Our firm does not have actual custody of client accounts. Item 16 Investment Discretion Clients may hire us to provide discretionary asset management services, in which case we place trades in a client's account without contacting the client prior to each trade to obtain the client's permission. Our discretionary authority includes the ability to do the following without contacting the client:  determine the security to buy or sell; and/or  determine the amount of the security to buy or sell Clients give us discretionary authority when they sign a discretionary agreement with our firm and may limit this authority by giving us written instructions. Clients may also change/amend such limitations by once again providing us with written instructions. MANAGER OF MANAGERS PROGRAM As previously disclosed in Item 4 of this brochure, we do not "manage" client portfolios in the traditional sense of the definition, rather Spire Wealth Management, LLC manages the managers of client portfolios within this program. Accordingly, clients participating in this program grant us authority to hire and fire the selected asset manager(s) managing client accounts. Clients give us this authority when they sign a discretionary agreement with our firm and may limit this authority by giving us written instructions. Clients may change/amend these limitations by once again providing us with written instructions. Item 17 Voting Client Securities As a matter of firm policy, we do not vote proxies on behalf of clients. Therefore, although our firm may provide investment advisory services related to client investment assets, clients maintain exclusive responsibility for: (1) directing the manner in which proxies solicited by issuers Page 26 of securities beneficially owned by the client shall be voted, and (2) making all elections relative to any mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, bankruptcy proceedings or other type events pertaining to the client's investment assets. Clients are responsible for instructing each custodian of the assets, to forward to the client copies of all proxies and shareholder communications relating to the client's investment assets. We may provide clients with consulting assistance regarding proxy issues if they contact us with questions at our principal place of business. In addition, Spire will not accept responsibility for assisting with any class actions on behalf of clients. Item 18 Financial Information As an advisory firm that maintains discretionary authority for client accounts, we are also required to disclose any financial condition that is reasonable likely to impair our ability to meet our contractual obligations. Spire Wealth Management, LLC has no such financial circumstances to report. Under no circumstances do we require or solicit payment of fees in excess of $1,200 per client more than six months in advance of services rendered. Therefore, we are not required to include a financial statement. Spire Wealth Management, LLC has not been the subject of a bankruptcy petition at any time during the past ten years. Page 27
