Jack and Jeremy P. Schwab. The Adviser is under common control with CAVU Capital Partners, LLC, discussed below. The Adviser’s services can be divided into the broad categories of Investment Management Services and Retirement Plan Services. The Adviser’s clients include high net worth individuals, pension and defined contribution plans, private funds, trusts, estates, charitable/non-profit entities, corporations and other business entities. All services are provided through the Adviser’s investment adviser representatives. Such investment adviser representatives are known as “Investment Managers” and are the primary client contact person for a given relationship. Services for clients vary by both individual clients and the type of investment advice requested. A discussion of the various services offered follows. Investment Management Services Overview. The Adviser provides Investment Management Services which involve giving continuous advice to a client and making investments for a client based on the specific needs of the client. Through personal discussions in which goals and objectives based on a client’s particular circumstances are established, the Adviser can create and develop Investment Policy Statement (“IPS”) for the client and can use this to manage advisory accounts on a discretionary basis in a manner consistent with the client’s IPS. The Adviser will create a portfolio consisting of one or more of the following investments: individual stocks, bonds, mutual funds, exchange traded funds (“ETFs”), exchange traded notes and other collective investment vehicles. The Adviser will allocate the client’s assets among various investments taking into consideration the overall risk tolerance outlined by the client. The Adviser will select an investment based on a variety of criteria, including, among other things: performance history and consistency of return (standard deviation); investment cost structure; tax considerations; management stability; industry sector allocation; market capitalization; investment style; and risk/volatility. Portfolio weighting will be determined by each client’s individual needs and circumstances, including cash flow needs, investment time horizon, IPS and risk tolerance. Clients have the opportunity to place reasonable restrictions or constraints on the way their accounts are managed and retain the right to modify account restrictions at any time by providing written notice of such changes to the Adviser. In addition, clients retain individual ownership of all securities held in their accounts. As a general rule, the Adviser believes that investing is most successful when investors take a longer-term view, defined as at least 5-7 years for more volatile investments such as stocks. Therefore, clients should not expect frequent investment changes in their portfolios, particularly in periods of extreme stock market volatility. Most investment changes will be made as a result of the following conditions: investment allocations that deviate from the client’s IPS; macro trends in the investment environment; investments that stray from original expectations; and, for collective investment vehicles such as mutual funds and ETFs, fundamental changes in investment vehicle structure, such as changing expense structure. The Adviser does not maintain custody of the assets in client accounts. Instead, all client assets are custodied with the client’s brokerage firm through which transactions are placed (the “Custodian”). The Adviser expects that in most cases, clients will utilize Fidelity Investments as their Custodian. The Adviser does not assure or guarantee the results of its Investment Management Services; thus, losses can occur from following the Adviser’s advice pertaining to any investment or investment approach, including using conservative investment strategies. Use of Sub-Advisors. The Adviser can recommend the use of third-party investment advisers (“Sub Advisors”) to manage all or a portion of the assets within a client’s account. Under these circumstances, the client would be required to enter into a separate investment management agreement with the Sub- Advisor, pursuant to which the Sub-Advisor would be granted discretion by the client to buy and sell securities for Sugar Maple Asset Management ADV Part 2A Page 4 the client’s account. If a Sub-Advisor is used to manage client assets, clients are encouraged to carefully review the Sub-Advisor’s Form ADV disclosure brochure, brochure supplement(s) and Form CRS (if applicable) for service level, fee, conflicts, and professional background information applicable to the Sub Advisor’s staff before entering into the agreement. It is important to note that even though certain Sub-Advisors have achieved higher performance returns than others, they may not be recommended to a client by the Adviser due to the influence of other factors, such as the nature of a Sub-Advisor’s investment style and time under which securities were managed to produce returns. Thus, the Adviser can decide to select Sub-Advisors from a limited pool of firms based on objectives, manager experience, familiarity, costs, and performance, among other criteria. Once the Adviser recommends a Sub-Advisor to a client, the Adviser will periodically evaluate the Sub-Advisor’s performance and, if necessary, recommend a replacement Sub-Advisor when it is deemed necessary. The Adviser generally does not recommend the replacement of a Sub-Advisor based on short-term performance. In the event there is significant change in the Sub-Advisor’s investment philosophy, loss of significant investment management personnel or a change in ownership, the Adviser will re-evaluate the Sub-Advisor to determine whether to recommend a Sub-Advisor change to a client. Retirement Plan Services For retirement plan clients (each, a “Plan”), the Adviser offers a variety of Retirement Plan Services, including the following: 1. Assist the Plan client with the development of an IPS, along with investment guidelines and restrictions; 2. Identify specific investment options and/or third-party investment advisers within each asset category. At no time will the Adviser act as an “ERISA 3(38) Fiduciary.” Rather, the Adviser will act only as a non-discretionary co-fiduciary, pursuant to which the Adviser will provide investment recommendations to the Plan’s named fiduciaries, who will then be responsible for selecting the investment options from those recommendations; 3. Monitor and report the performance of all selected investment choices; 4. Recommend changes to the investment options; and 5. Review periodically the suitability of the Plan investment options. The Adviser also offers the following additional services to Plan clients: 1. Conduct periodic participant education and Plan-related meetings (live or web); 2. Assist with provider review and searches and negotiation of fees; and 3. Provide such other services as mutually agreed upon by the Adviser and the Plan client. Plan clients are free to contact their Investment Manager at any time, and to place restrictions on the types of securities the Adviser recommends for use by the Plan. The Adviser does not offer any service that guarantees a gain, or that a loss will not occur. All clients assume the risk that investment returns can be negative or below the rates of return achieved by other investment managers, market indices, or specific investments. Private Fund The Adviser serves as the investment adviser of a private hedge fund called the CAVU Private Opportunity Fund, LLC (the “Private Fund”). The Private Fund is available to certain qualified investors, and will be offered to qualified clients of the Adviser as deemed appropriate. The managing member of the Private Fund, CAVU Capital Partners, LLC (“Managing Member”), is under common control with the Adviser, and is therefore an affiliate of the Adviser. More information regarding the Private Fund, including, among other things, information regarding its investment program, risks, conflicts of interest, and fees, is available upon Sugar Maple Asset Management ADV Part 2A Page 5 request. Other Services Financial Planning and Consulting. The Adviser offers financial planning and consulting services, which can include, among other things, assisting clients to: define their goals and priorities; establish clear milestones and financial planning objectives; organize their financial resources; analyze their situational risk factors to support better decision making; review their current estate plans; and assess their needs for different types of insurance. Assets Under Management As of December 31, 2025, Sugar Maple Asset Management managed $291,512,235 assets on a discretionary basis only. Item 5 Fees and Compensation Listed below is the Adviser’s current fee schedule. Discretionary Investment Management Fees. All fully managed discretionary accounts shall be subject to a base fee of $50 per account in addition to a market value fee. The market value fee portion will follow the fee schedule below based upon the market value of assets in the account. Account Market Value Market Value Fee $0 to $500,000 1.00% next $500,001 - $1,000,000 0.80% next $1,000,001 - $3,000,000 0.70% next $3,000,001 - $10,000,000 0.65% Over $10,000,000 negotiable Additionally, if the client’s assets are held in an irrevocable trust, the Adviser, in its sole discretion, can charge an additional investment management fee of up to 0.40% (annualized) of the market value of the account. Sugar Maple Asset Management stock portfolio includes an additional 0.25% fee for that account only. Investment management fees paid to the Adviser are for the Adviser’s advisory services only. The fees do not include, for example, the fees charged by third parties such as Sub-Advisors. Commissions on brokerage transactions and other account fees, if any, will also be charged by brokerage firms/Custodians in accordance with the firm’s normal commission schedule. In addition, each mutual fund, ETF or other collective investment vehicle in which a client’s assets are invested also pays its own advisory fees and other internal expenses which already have been deducted from the fund’s reported performance. Depending on the fund, a client can invest directly in the shares issued by the fund with or without incurring any sales or third-party management fees. The Adviser also can pass along fees related to overnighting checks to clients. The Adviser’s investment management fees are payable quarterly in arrears. The annual rate listed above is applied to quarter-end account balances then divided by 4. Each quarterly fee will be deducted directly from your account unless other arrangements are made in advance. The Adviser will combine the market value of related accounts for fee calculation purposes, except in situations where accounts within a household are charged a different fee rate. Sugar Maple Asset Management Individual Stock Portfolio From time-to-time, some clients seek active individual stock portfolio management. To address this need, the adviser manages an individual stock portfolio of between, generally 15-25 holdings. If this type of account is established for a client, a separate account will be opened with the custodian and an additional 0.25% will be charged, per year, on a quarterly Sugar Maple Asset Management ADV Part 2A Page 6 basis, to help cover expenses associated with management of this portfolio. Retirement Plan Services Fees. Our fees for non-discretionary Retirement Plan Services are 0.50% of the market value of the assets in each Plan, payable quarterly in arrears. Each quarterly fee will be billed to the Plan directly (such fees will not be automatically deducted from Plan assets). Financial Planning and Consulting Fees. The Adviser’s fee for financial planning and consulting services with respect to non-managed portfolios is based on either an hourly rate (ranging from $50 to $250 per hour, depending upon staff involvement) or a flat fee which varies depending on the complexity of the requested services. An estimate of the fee for these services will be provided upon request. Relationship Management Fees. The Adviser will charge a fee of $4,000, annually in order to maintain and manage relationships with its customers. This fee may be waived at the firm’s discretion. Other Fees and Expenses for the Private Fund. In addition to the fees stated above, there are additional fees borne by clients as investors in the Fund such as auditor fees, regulatory and legal expenses (including brokerage fees), and government filing fees. The Fund also bears the cost of certain organizational, administrative, offering, and other expenses as set forth in the offering documents. Item 6 Performance-Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management The Adviser charges a performance-based fee to one client, the Private Fund. The Managing Member of the Private Fund hires the Adviser to manage the Private Fund’s assets. The Adviser has a conflict of interest in that it has an incentive to give the Private Fund preferential treatment due to the potential to receive performance-based compensation. The Manager is entitled to receive tiered performance-based compensation equal to (i) 15% of the amount by which each Investor’s Positive Performance Change for such Performance Period, if any, exceeds the Hurdle Amount up to 19.99% (on annualized basis), and (ii) 20% of the amount by which each Investor’s Positive Performance Change exceeds 19.99% (on an annualized basis), including realized and unrealized gains and losses, subject to any positive balance in the Carryforward Account (as defined below) (i.e., the cumulative “high water mark”). Item 7 Types of Clients The Adviser provides investment advice to individuals, high net worth individuals, pension and defined contribution plans, private funds, trusts, estates, charitable/non-profit entities, corporations and other business entities. Because we receive a performance allocation based on the capital appreciation of capital accounts, we comply with the requirements of SEC Rule 205-3(17 Code of Federal Regulations & 275.205- 3), which prohibits the use of such fees unless the client is a “qualified client”. In general, a qualified client may include: 1. A natural person or company who at the time of entering into such agreement has at least $1,100,000 under the management of the investment adviser; 2. A natural person or company who the adviser reasonably believes at the time of entering into the contract: a. has a net worth of jointly with his or her spouse of more than $2,200,000 or b. is a qualified purchaser as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, 2(a)(51)(A)(15U.S.C. 80a-2(51)(A)); or 3. A natural person who at the time of entering into the contract is: a. An executive officer, director, trustee, general partner, or person serving in the similar capacity of the investment adviser; b. An employee of the investment adviser (other than an employee performing solely clerical, Sugar Maple Asset Management ADV Part 2A Page 7 secretarial, or administrative functions with regard to the investment adviser), who in connection with his or her regular functions or duties, participates in the investment activities of such investment adviser, provided that such employee has been performing such functions and duties for or on behalf of the investment adviser, or substantially similar functions or duties for or on behalf of another company for at least 12 months. Although the Adviser does not generally impose a minimum relationship size for providing its services, the Adviser’s Investment Managers may negotiate a minimum fee for all services, as described in Item 5. Item 8 Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss The Adviser believes that each client’s investment strategy should be based upon long-term historical data and the relationship between various asset categories. The main investment categories utilized are stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, exchange traded notes and other collective investment vehicles. To a lesser extent, other categories can be utilized. The Adviser does not attempt to engage in market timing, but will consider current market conditions when buying or selling securities. The Adviser will only recommend publicly traded securities. If a client directs, the Adviser will ask the client’s Custodian to hold non-public securities on behalf of the client; however, the Adviser will not make recommendations regarding such securities. The primary security analysis method utilized by the Adviser is fundamental analysis, which means that the Adviser evaluates securities based on historical and projected financial performance. The Adviser’s main sources of information include, but are not limited to, reports prepared by third-party entities whose primary business line is security evaluation, financial newspapers and magazines, corporate rating services, annual reports, prospectuses, public filings and company press releases. While the Adviser believes this investment approach will produce satisfactory long-term results, there is a risk of loss of part or all of a client’s principal and there is no guarantee that results will match market indices or historical returns. A client’s account value can fluctuate, sometimes dramatically, depending upon the nature of the client’s investments, market conditions and other factors. Moreover, a client is subject to certain risks, including, but not limited to the risks described below. The risks discussed below vary by investment style or strategy, and the investments in the client’s account, and each risk may or may not apply to a client. Clients should not pursue a strategy unless they are prepared to accept the associated risks. Clients are encouraged to discuss with their Investment Manager the risks that apply to them. A client should also review the prospectus or other disclosure document for any security in which the client invests, as it will contain important information about the risks associated with investing in such security. Management Risk.When the Adviser has investment discretion over a client’s account, this means that the Adviser has been delegated the authority to buy and sell investments on the client’s behalf. Accordingly, the client must rely upon the Adviser’s abilities and judgment and upon its investment abilities. There is no guarantee that the Adviser’s investment techniques will be successful. Sub-Advisor Risk. Sub-Advisors recommended by the Adviser can invest in a variety of investments and employ various investment techniques. If a Sub-Advisor is used to manage client assets, clients are encouraged to carefully review the Sub-Advisor’s Form ADV disclosure brochure, brochure supplement(s) and Form CRS (if applicable) for information about its investment strategies and related risks. Market Risk. A client’s account can change in value due to overall market fluctuations. General economic conditions, political developments, international events and other factors can cause the overall market to decline, which in turn can reduce the value of the client’s account regardless of the relative strength of the securities held in the account. Securities prices often vary for reasons unrelated to matters directly affecting the issuers of the securities. Investment Objective and Asset Allocation Risk. A client’s investment objective and asset allocation strategies involve the risk that certain asset classes selected for the client’s account might not perform as well as other asset classes during varying periods. In addition, clients who pursue more aggressive investment objectives and asset allocation strategies, while hoping to achieve high returns, can face greater Sugar Maple Asset Management ADV Part 2A Page 8 risk of loss than clients with more conservative objectives and strategies. In developing investment objectives and asset allocation strategies, clients should carefully consider their financial situation and needs, investment goals. Stock Market Risk. Equity security prices vary and can fall, thus reducing the value of a client’s investments. Certain stocks selected for a client’s account can decline in value more than the overall stock market. Equity Securities Risk. Equity securities may experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value or long periods of decline in value. This may occur because of factors that affect the securities markets in general, such as adverse changes in economic conditions, the general outlook for corporate earnings, interest rates or investor sentiment. Equity securities can also lose value because of factors affecting an entire industry or sector, such as increases in production costs, or factors directly related to a specific company, such as decisions made by its management. investment time horizon and risk tolerance. Fixed Income Security Risk. Fixed income securities are subject to certain risks, including interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. In addition, they are subject to maturity risk. Generally, the longer a bond’s maturity, the greater the interest rate risk and the higher its yield. Conversely, the shorter a bond’s maturity, the lower the interest rate risk and the lower its yield. Non-rated, split-rated, below investment grade, and asset-backed securities, including mortgage-backed securities, have additional, special risks. Mutual Funds Risk. Each mutual fund is subject to specific risks, depending on its investments. The value of a mutual fund's investments and the net asset value of the mutual fund's shares will fluctuate in response to changes in market and economic conditions ,as well as the financial condition and prospects of companies in which the mutual fund invests. The performance of each mutual fund will depend on whether the mutual fund’s investment adviser is successful in pursuing the mutual fund’s investment strategy. ETFs Risk. An investment in an ETF generally presents the same primary risks as an investment in a conventional mutual fund (i.e., one that is not exchange traded) that has the same investment objective, strategies and policies. The price of an ETF can fluctuate within a wide range and a portfolio could lose money investing in an ETF if the prices of the underlying investments owned by the ETF go down. Like mutual funds, ETFs are subject to investment advisory, transactional, operating and other expenses. Unlike mutual funds, ETFs do not necessarily trade at the net asset values of their underlying securities, which means an ETF could potentially trade above or below the value of its underlying portfolio. Additionally, because ETFs trade like stocks on exchanges, they are subject to trading and commission costs, unlike open end mutual funds. ETFs are subject to liquidity risk. Liquidity risk exists when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell, possibly preventing the sale of the security at an advantageous time or price. Buffered ETFs (defined-outcome) are designed to provide downside protection in exchange for a cap on potential upside gains. They present the client with a tradeoff of giving up potential full upside benefit for the potential for mitigating some downside in market performance. Leveraged and Inverse ETF Risk. Leveraged ETFs generally seeks to deliver multiples of the daily performance of the index or benchmark that it tracks. An inverse ETF generally seeks to deliver the opposite of the daily performance of the index or benchmark that it tracks. Inverse ETFs often are marketed as a way for investors to profit from, or at least hedge their exposure to, downward-moving markets. Some ETFs are both inverse and leveraged, meaning that they seek a return that is a multiple of the inverse performance of the underlying index. To accomplish their objectives, leveraged and inverse ETFs use a range of investment strategies, including swaps, futures contracts and other derivative instruments. Leveraged, inverse, and leveraged inverse ETFs are more volatile and riskier than traditional ETFs due to their exposure to leverage and derivatives, particularly total return swaps and futures. Most leveraged ETFs are typically designed to achieve their desired exposure on a daily (in a few cases, monthly) basis and reset their leverage daily. The return of the leveraged ETF for periods longer than a single day will be the result of each day's returns compounded over the period. Due to the effect of this compounding, their performance over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the performance (or inverse performance) of their underlying index or benchmark during the same period of time. For periods longer than a single day, the leveraged ETF will lose money when the level of the Index is flat, and it is possible that the leveraged ETF will lose money even if the level of the Index rises. Longer holding periods, higher index volatility and greater leverage all exacerbate the impact of compounding on an investor's returns. During periods of higher Sugar Maple Asset Management ADV Part 2A Page 9 Index volatility, the volatility of the Index may affect the leveraged ETF's return as much as or more than the return of the Index itself. Therefore, holding leveraged, inverse, and leveraged inverse ETFs for longer periods of time increases their risk due to the effects of compounding and the inherent difficulty in market timing. Leveraged ETFs are riskier than similarly benchmarked ETFs that do not use leverage. Non- traditional ETFs are volatile and not suitable for all investors. Positions in non-traditional ETFs are monitored closely due to their volatile nature and inability to track the underlying index over an extended period of time. Volatility-Linked Exchange-Traded Products (ETPs). Volatility-linked exchange-traded products (ETPs) include exchange-traded notes (ETNs), exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and other instruments that seek to track volatility benchmarks such as the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX). These products are complex, often utilize derivatives (such as futures contracts), and are typically intended for short-term trading or hedging purposes. Volatility-linked ETPs may not track the index directly and are subject to unique risks. Their performance may decline even in periods when volatility increases, due to the costs and pricing structures associated with maintaining exposure to volatility through futures contracts. These products are not designed for long-term investment strategies and may experience substantial losses if held for extended periods. Crypto ETFs Risk. An investment in Crypto ETFs provides investors with indirect exposure to the cryptocurrency space using publicly traded companies and ETFs. The goal for these investments is to benefit from the assets class, without the need to directly purchase the actual cryptocurrency itself. Narrowly focused investments typically exhibit higher volatility. A model portfolio concentrated in a single industry, such as companies actively engaged in blockchain technology may never develop or be able to transact processes that lead to returns for any company in which the model invests. Such investments may be subject to the following risks: Lack of liquid markets, possible manipulation of blockchain-based assets; lack of regulation; third party product defects or vulnerabilities; reliance on the internet, and line of business risk Interest Rate Risk. The value of some investments, particularly fixed income securities, is affected significantly by changes in interest rates. Generally, when interest rates rise, the fixed income security’s market value declines and when interest rates decline, its market value rises. In addition, a rise in interest rates can have a negative impact on the issuer, which, in turn, could have a negative impact on the market value of the investment. Liquidity Risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that certain investments can be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and price that a client would like to sell. Clients might have to lower the price, sell other investments or forgo an investment opportunity, any of which can have a negative effect on the management or performance of client accounts. The liquidity of a particular investment depends on the strength of demand for the investment, which is generally related to the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market for the investment as well as the interest of other investors to buy the investment. During periods of economic uncertainty, significant economic and market downturns and periods in which financial services firms are unable to commit capital to make a market in, or otherwise buy, certain investments, a client can experience challenges in selling such investments at optimal prices. In addition, recent regulatory changes applicable to financial intermediaries that make markets in debt securities have restricted or made it less desirable for those financial intermediaries to hold large inventories of debt securities. Because market makers provide stability to a market through their intermediary services, a reduction in dealer inventories can lead to decreased liquidity and increased volatility in the fixed income markets. Cybersecurity Risk. The computer systems, networks and devices used by the Adviser and its service providers employ a variety of protections designed to prevent damage or interruption from computer viruses, network and computer failures and cyberattacks. Despite such protections, systems, networks and devices potentially can be breached. Cyberattacks include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of corrupting data, or causing operational disruption, as well as denial-of-service attacks on websites. Cyber incidents can cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, the inability of the Adviser or service providers to trade, violations of privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, reputational damage, reimbursement costs and additional compliance costs, as well as the inadvertent release of confidential information. Private Fund. The Private Fund has additional risks, which are described in the Private Fund’s offering Sugar Maple Asset Management ADV Part 2A Page 10 materials. Item 9 Disciplinary Information The Adviser is required to disclose any legal or disciplinary events that are material to your evaluation of the Adviser, or the integrity of the Adviser’s management. The Adviser has no legal or disciplinary events to disclose. Item 10 Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations The Adviser is 100% owned by Terry M. Jack and Jeremy P. Schwab. Mr. Jack is a part-time employee of Fortifi Bank of Green Bay, Wisconsin. Mr. Jack’s title is Wealth Liaison. He works no more than four hours a week for Fortifi Bank, generally during normal business hours where he qualifies referrals to the Adviser on behalf of the bank. If these referrals are deemed to be qualified and passed on to the Adviser, a revenue sharing agreement between the Adviser and Fortifi Bank is in place. Under this arrangement, Fortifi Bank receives a fixed percentage of fee revenue based upon asset management for their clients as long as they remain a client of the Adviser. This revenue sharing agreement could be deemed as a potential conflict of interest. All clients referred to the Adviser by Fortifi Bank are given a Potential Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement highlighting the arrangement. In addition, the owners of Sugar Maple Asset Management, Mr. Jack and Mr. Schwab, own shares of stock in Fortifi Bank. As a result, these individuals may benefit indirectly from the Adviser’s referral and revenue-sharing relationship with Fortifi Bank through their ownership interest. This ownership interest presents an additional potential conflict of interest, as it could create an incentive to promote or maintain the referral relationship with Fortifi Bank. The Adviser seeks to mitigate these conflicts through full disclosure and by ensuring that all investment advice provided to clients is based on the clients’ best interests. Mr. Jack and Mr. Schwab do not control or manage Fortifi Bank. Mr. Schwab is licensed to offer insurance products. Mr. Schwab can offer these products to clients of the Adviser through Fidelity brokerage services. While Mr. Schwab maintains an active insurance license, he does not sell insurance products to advisory clients and does not receive commissions or other compensation from the sale of insurance products in connection with advisory services. The insurance license is maintained solely to provide general education and advice regarding insurance-related matters. Messrs. Jack and Schwab are majority owners of the Managing Member of the Private Fund. The Adviser serves as the investment adviser for the Private Fund. In such a capacity, Adviser may offer the Fund as a recommendation to Adviser’s clients. Clients should be aware that the receipt of performance fees within the Fund by Adviser creates an inherent conflict of interest, whereby Adviser could be influenced to recommend the Fund to its clients to potentially earn greater compensation. The client is under no obligation to act upon any such recommendation. Item 11 Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading The Adviser maintains a Code of Ethics Policy (the “Code”) that outlines a standard of conduct to be upheld by all employees. The Code requires employees to act in a fiduciary manner in all client dealings, and requires honesty and the client’s best interest in all transactions. The Code includes provisions relating to maintaining the confidentiality of client information, a prohibition on trading on inside information, a prohibition of rumor mongering, restrictions on the acceptance of significant gifts and the reporting of certain gifts and business entertainment items, and personal securities trading procedures, among other things. All supervised persons at the Adviser must acknowledge reviewing the current Code annually. Adviser’s Code of Ethics is available free upon request to any client or prospective client. With respect to personal trading, the Adviser does not allow employees or related persons or entities to buy or sell securities to or from client accounts. In addition, on a quarterly basis, all employees are required to report to the Adviser’s Chief Compliance Officer (the “CCO”) all security transactions in an account where the employee has direct or indirect control. Under certain conditions, employees are permitted to buy and sell securities that the Adviser also recommends to clients. In general, employees who have access to nonpublic information regarding client transactions or portfolio holdings are required to purchase or sell a security for their personal accounts only after client trading of that same security has been completed in the Sugar Maple Asset Management ADV Part 2A Page 11 client’s account if the security trades on relatively low volume; most securities traded will have relatively large volume and will not be moved by trading volume created by the Adviser or its personnel. The CCO reviews all trades by employees at quarter-end to ensure this policy is working. In addition to the Adviser’s Code, Investment Managers who hold professional designations (i.e., CFP, CTFA and/or CFA) are also required to follow the code of ethics for those organizations. There is the potential for a conflict of interest for clients based upon investments placed within the Private Fund. Due to the performance-based compensation payable by the Private Fund to the Adviser, there can be a motivation to preserve best-ideas for the Private Fund, and not other clients of the firm. Item 12 Brokerage Practices The Adviser recommends Fidelity for custody and broker services to its clients. These recommendations are based upon past experience with the entity, execution of transactions, commission schedules, administrative ease of operation, and services provided. The Adviser does not have any contracts in place that require minimum numbers of trades, dollar amounts, or other such business requirements with Custodians. As part of each Custodian’s program, the Adviser receives benefits that it would not otherwise receive. These benefits include the following products and services, provided to the Adviser without cost or at a discount: duplicate client statements and confirmations; access to a trading desk serving the Adviser’s Investment Managers; access to block trading (which provides the ability to aggregate securities transactions for execution and then allocate the appropriate shares directly to or from client accounts); the ability to have the Adviser’s investment management fees deducted directly from client accounts; access to an electronic communications network for client order entry and account information; and access to mutual funds and ETFs with no transaction fees. Some of these products and services made available by the Custodians benefit the Adviser, but it might not benefit its clients. Clients should be aware that the receipt of economic benefits by the Adviser described above, in and of itself, creates a potential conflict of interest and can directly or indirectly influence the Adviser recommendations for those Custodians for custody and brokerage service. Thus, the receipt of these services creates an incentive and conflict of interest for the Adviser when it recommends any Custodian’s services. Adviser receives no referrals from a broker-dealer or third party in exchange for using that broker-dealer or third party. Adviser will require clients to use a specific broker-dealer to execute transactions. Not all advisers require clients to use a particular broker-dealer. Given the low volume of trading engaged in by the Adviser, the Adviser does not currently aggregate, or bunch, trades for client accounts. Item 13 Review of Accounts The Adviser has a formal review process whereby accounts are reviewed by on at least an annual basis by the Chief Compliance Officer. As part of this review, the client’s current investments and account allocation are compared to the client’s IPS. The Adviser can recommend changes to the client’s portfolio based upon its review. Clients receive monthly or quarterly statements from their Custodian. These statements show current holdings, activity in account, and beginning and ending account values. Investors in the Private Fund will receive monthly statements, on-line access to their investment account and audited annual financial statements. Item 14 Client Referrals and Other Compensation The Adviser can receive referrals from many sources, including existing clients and other service professionals. These referrals are made without compensation to the source, except for the Fortifi Bank Sugar Maple Asset Management ADV Part 2A Page 12 arrangement mentioned in Item 10, above. Item 15 Custody The Adviser does not take possession of your assets, rather they are held by a Custodian. The Custodian will send you either monthly or quarterly statements in paper or electronic form. The Adviser urges clients to carefully review such statements, and notify the Adviser promptly of any questions or concerns. With respect to the Private Fund, because an affiliate of the Adviser is the Managing Member of the fund, the Adviser is deemed to have physical custody of the fund’s assets. For this reason, investors in the Private Fund will receive audited annual financial statements in addition to the other periodic reports described in Item 13, above. Item 16 Investment Discretion When a client signs a discretionary investment advisory agreement with the Adviser, the client gives the Adviser the authority to buy and sell securities in the client’s account without first consulting the client. In exercising its investment discretion with client accounts, the Adviser takes into consideration the client’s written investment objective and how such security purchases and sales will help the client meet their IPS. Item 17 Voting Client Securities The Adviser will have no obligation or authority to vote in proxy matters. Clients will receive proxies directly from the issuer of the security or the custodian. Clients should direct all proxy questions to the issuer of the security. In addition, the Adviser does not take any action on legal notices the Adviser or a client can receive from issuers of securities held in a client’s account. However, the Adviser is available to answer questions regarding such notices upon request. Item 18 Financial Information The Adviser does not receive fees of more than $1,200 six months or more in advance, thus no financial statement for the Adviser is attached. The Adviser does not have any financial condition that is reasonably likely to impair the Adviser’s ability to meet contractual commitments to any client. The Adviser has not been the subject to a bankruptcy petition at any time during the past ten years.
