ADVISORY BUSINESS DESCRIPTION OF THE ADVISORY FIRM Three Bell Capital LLC is a Limited Liability Company organized in the state of California. This firm has been in business since November 2011, and the principal owners are Jonathan H. Porter, Eric C. Patterson, and Andre E. Huaman. Gregory Fomin is the firm’s Chief Compliance Officer. TYPES OF ADVISORY SERVICES Three Bell Capital LLC (hereinafter “TBC”) offers two broad categories of services to advisory clients: private wealth management and corporate retirement plans. Private Wealth Management Services A. Investment Supervisory Services TBC offers ongoing portfolio management services based on the individual goals, objectives, time horizon, and risk tolerance of each client. TBC creates an Investment Policy Statement for each client, which outlines the client’s current situation (income, tax levels, and risk tolerance levels) and then constructs a plan (the Investment Policy Statement) to aid in the selection of a portfolio that matches each client’s specific situation. Investment Supervisory Services include, but are not limited to, the following:  Investment Strategy  Personal Investment Policy  Asset Allocation  Asset Selection  Risk Tolerance  Regular Portfolio Monitoring TBC evaluates the current investments of each client with respect to their risk tolerance levels and time horizon. TBC will request discretionary authority from clients in order to select securities and execute transactions without permission from the client prior to each transaction. Risk tolerance levels are documented in the Investment Policy Statement, which is given to each client. TBC offers financial planning services that are included in the quarterly management fees and do not cost anything additional. B. Services Limited to Specific Types of Investments TBC generally limits its money management to mutual funds, equities, bonds, fixed income, debt securities, ETFs, hedge funds, REITs, Private Equity, venture capital, private credit, CLOs, private real estate, and government securities. TBC may use other securities as well to help diversify a portfolio when applicable. TBC is the manager of and provides investment advice to several private funds. These include HMC Stacks I, LLC; HMC Stacks II, LLC; Resonant Growth Equity I, LLC; Resonant CLO I, LLC; Resonant Absolute Return Fund, LP; Resonant Absolute Return Offshore Fund, Ltd.; Resonant Strategic Income Fund, LP; Resonant Private Equity Fund I, LP; Resonant Vista Access I, LLC; Resonant Venture Capital Fund I, LP; Resonant Strategic Income Fund II, LP; Resonant Real Estate Fund I, LP; Resonant Venture Capital Fund II, LP; and Resonant Mountain Point Holdings, LLC (collectively, the “Resonant Funds”). With respect to Resonant Absolute Return Fund, LP; 5 Resonant Strategic Income Fund, LP; Resonant Private Equity Fund I, LP; Resonant Venture Capital Fund I, LP; Resonant Strategic Income Fund II, LP; and Resonant Real Estate Fund I, LP, affiliates of TBC serve as the General Partner to these private funds. The advisory fees that TBC receives for providing these services are set forth in the investment management agreement between TBC and each fund. Additional details about the fees charged to an investor in such fund are available in the respective fund’s governing or offering documents. Pooled investment vehicles are responsible for the payment of all third-party fees and expenses (i.e. underlying manager fees, custodian fees, brokerage fees, legal fees, accounting/audit fees, administration fees, third party consulting fees, etc. as applicable). Those fees are separate and distinct from the fees and expenses charged by TBC. Family Office Services For certain clients, TBC provides outsourced family office services liaising the client’s extended team of advisors to coordinate not only asset management, but intergenerational wealth transfer, complex charitable planning, integrated tax strategy, and risk management, in a way that preserves the client’s family values as well as your wealth. Services include but are not limited to:  Estate Planning  Charitable Giving  Comprehensive Reporting  Expert Coordination  Asset Management  Liability Management Corporate Retirement Plan Services In addition to private wealth management, TBC also offers advisory services to corporate retirement plans.  Platform Selection  Investment Management  Plan Design  Participant Education  Fiduciary Support  Fee Benchmarking A. Investment Management One of the most critical functions a plan advisor must provide is selecting, monitoring, and managing the plan investment options, not just at plan inception, but on an ongoing basis. TBC uses a sophisticated suite of institutional software to create a well-diversified menu of investment options that will allow plan participants to create an asset allocation to meet their specific needs. TBC then monitors the fund lineup and, if and when necessary, recommends changes to those investments to ensure they remain optimized. B. Platform Selection One of the first choices a retirement plan client will have to make is platform selection. Retirement plan platforms, often referred to as “recordkeepers”, are not one size fits all. The 6 services, features, capabilities, reporting, and pricing all vary greatly by platform, and it is important to evaluate multiple platforms to find the right fit for each particular plan, based on number of participants, projected growth, plan assets, and participant sophistication. TBC works agnostically with most major platform providers, understand the relative strengths of each, and help clients make the right choice. C. Plan Design Every organization is unique and different. TBC ensures each company’s retirement plan is custom tailored to the client’s specifications and optimized for the organization’s goals and objectives. The TBC retirement plan team will meet with the client, discuss goals and objectives, understand what the client is looking to accomplish with the plan, and then walk the client through the various options. TBC will then work in conjunction with the plan administrators to implement a purposeful plan design, with targeted recommendations. D. Fiduciary Support Retirement plan committee members all have other jobs within the organization, and they do not have the time or resources to stay up to speed on and meet their ongoing fiduciary obligations. However, the consequences of failing in any one of these fiduciary duties can be catastrophic, because being a fiduciary means you carry personal liability for certain aspects of the company’s retirement plan. We use process-driven software and schedules to assist our clients in meeting their fiduciary obligations. When TBC is engaged as a plan advisor, they act as a co-fiduciary on the plan, in tandem with the plan committee. At the client’s election, TBC can act as either a full discretionary fiduciary, with the ability to make changes to the plan on behalf of the committee (a Section 3(21) fiduciary), or a non-discretionary fiduciary whereby TBC advises the plan committee but the ultimate discretion and action falls upon the plan committee itself for all actions taken on behalf of the plan (a Section 3(38) fiduciary). E. Fee Benchmarking One of the most critical, and often litigated, fiduciary duties is to ensure that the plan costs are all reasonable. Many advisors will do this for just the investment options. However, TBC not only evaluates and benchmarks fund fees, but also the fees associated with the platform (“recordkeeper”), the third-party administrator (if applicable), the auditor, and TBC as the plan advisor. Consistent with the committee’s fiduciary obligation, TBC does this annually in a comprehensive fee benchmarking report, which is reviewed with the plan committee, and then any necessary adjustments and recommendations are implemented to maintain plan compliance. F. Participant Education Unfortunately, many retirement plans have dismal enrollment and engagement numbers. This is most often the result of anemic participant education and training. TBC will work with the plan committee to ensure that participants have optimal in-person and online training. TBC’s education programs and topic areas are client-specific, meaning that employees are receiving targeted education materials, information, and training, specific to a particular mandate or perceived need. Client Tailored Services and Client Imposed Restriction TBC offers the same suite of services to all clients. However, specific client financial plans and their implementation are dependent upon the client Investment Policy Statement which outlines 7 each client’s current situation (income, tax levels, and risk tolerance levels) and is used to construct a client specific plan to aid in the selection of a portfolio that matches restrictions, needs, and targets. Clients may impose restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities in accordance with their values or beliefs. Wrap Fee Programs A wrap fee program is an investment program where the investor pays one stated fee that includes management fees, transaction costs, fund expenses, and any other administrative fees. TBC DOES NOT participate in any wrap fee programs. ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT As of December 31, 2025, we have the following assets under management: Discretionary Assets Under Management: $ 2,104,291,888 Non-Discretionary Assets Under Management: $ 2,946,764,121 Total Assets Under Management: $ 5,051,056,009 ITEM 5. FEES AND COMPENSATION FEE SCHEDULE Private Wealth Management Services Fees TBC charges private wealth clients a management fee equal to a percentage multiplied by the amount of total assets under management that the client has placed with TBC. The percentage ranges from a low of .50% (fifty basis points) to a maximum of 1.00% (one hundred basis points) and is determined by the level of a client’s assets under TBC’s management. Generally, the more assets a client has placed with TBC, the lower the management fee. There is a $10,000 annual fee minimum, but TBC reserves the right to waive the minimum on a case-by-case basis. The management fee is tiered in that a higher management fee is charged on lower amounts of assets. As a client increases the level of assets under the management of TBC, a lower fee will be charged as higher asset threshold levels are reached. This is often referred to as a “tiered” management fee methodology. As a client reaches certain asset levels, the higher tier of assets will be charged a lower fee. For example, if the asset amount is under $10 million, IA typically charges a fee of 1.00%. If Client increases the asset amount placed with IA to $15 million, Client will continue to pay a 1.0% fee on the first $10 million but would only pay a 0.75% fee on the amount above the first $10 million, namely the additional $5 million in assets. Further, if Client asset amount reached $25 million, Client would typically pay 1.00% on all assets below $10 million, 0.75% on assets greater than or equal to $10 million and less than $20 million, and 0.50% on assets greater than or equal to $20 million. Assets Under Management $1 – $9,999,999 $10,000,000 – $19,999,999 $20,000,000 and above Annual Fee 1.00% 0.75% 0.50% 8 These fees are negotiable depending upon the needs of the client and complexity of the situation, and the final fee schedule is attached as Exhibit I of the Investment Advisory Agreement. Fees are paid quarterly in arrears based upon average daily balance, and clients may terminate their contracts with written notice to TBC. Because fees are charged in arrears, no refund policy is necessary, though TBC, in its discretion, may choose to reduce or waive fees to certain clients, including those who have terminated their relationship with the Firm. Clients may terminate their accounts without penalty within 5 business days of signing the advisory contract. Advisory fees are withdrawn directly from the client’s accounts with client written authorization. In the event that margin transactions are used in a client account, the client may be charged fees and interest by the custodian providing the margin. Such fees and interest may vary based on the custodian used as well as the prevailing interest rate environment. If margin is used to purchase securities in TBC’s direction, those assets purchased with margin will be subjected to TBC’s wealth management fee. If margin is used for anything other than the purchase of securities, TBC’s wealth management fee is not applied. Lower fees for comparable services may be available from other sources. Corporate Retirement Plan Services Fees These fees are negotiable, and can vary greatly for each individual client, depending upon the needs of the client and complexity of the situation, the recordkeeping platform used, whether the plan administrator is the same as the plan platform, and a variety of other factors. The final fee schedule is attached as an exhibit to each Investment Advisory Contract. Corporate Retirement Plan Assets Under Management (AUM) Fee TBC fees are determined by reference to the value of assets held in custody by the plan’s custodian (such assets being referred to herein as the “Trust Account”) and will represent a pro rata portion of an annual fee equal to a % of the value of the Trust Account as memorialized below or in the client’s Investment Advisory Agreement. TBC may modify or change the fees specified herein. The fee will be based on the value of the plan as of the last business day of the preceding fee period and will be payable in full immediately upon the date of TBC’s invoice. The calculation of quarterly fees based on an annual percentage of plan assets varies by recordkeeper, and as such, the exact dollar amount of any such fee will vary depending upon which recordkeeper is engaged. In determining the value of the Plan assets for purposes of calculating any asset-based fees, TBC may rely upon the valuation of assets provided by client or the plan’s custodian or recordkeeper without independent verification. Assets Under Management $1 – $999,999 $1,000,000 – $4,999,999 $5,000,000 – $19,999,999 $20,000,000 and above Annual Fee 1.00% 0.60% 0.40% 0.20% Flat Fee $6,500 $5,000 $0 $0 Corporate Retirement Plan Flat Fee Flat fee applicability varies by client. If a flat fee is used in conjunction with, or instead of an AUM fee, that fee will be payable quarterly, in advance, unless otherwise stated. As of the billing cycle immediately following the annual anniversary of the client engagement agreement, and on 9 each annual anniversary thereafter, the amount of the stated annual fee may be subject to a 5% increase. This new annual fee shall supersede the previous fee for all subsequent billing cycles. At its discretion, TBC may choose to implement a fee increase that is less than 5%, but this shall not affect any fee increase applicable on future anniversary dates. A flat fee may also be used in conjunction with an asset under management fee, if determined to be appropriate by the committee and TBC. Corporate Retirement Plan Setup Fee For newly established plans, TBC may charge a one-time setup fee. Clients have the option of paying this setup fee pro-rata (based upon the participant’s account balance), or per-capita (by dividing the fees equally among each participant) deduction from the plan assets held at the custodian/recordkeeper, or via direct invoice to client. All setup fees will be due and payable immediately. PAYMENT OF FEES Payment of Private Wealth Management Fees Advisory fees are withdrawn directly from the client’s accounts with client written authorization. Fees are paid quarterly in arrears based on average daily balance. TBC does not collect fees in advance. Advisory fees may also be invoiced and billed directly to the client quarterly in arrears based on average daily balance. Clients may select the method in which they are billed. Payment of Corporate Retirement Plan Fees TBC may receive fees directly from the custodian, via a state insurance license, or via direct invoice paid by the client, depending upon the manner in which the plan is established. In certain instances, these fees may include upfront compensation for transitioning a plan from one custodian to another. In such cases, fees may be based on (i) a percentage of the value of the plan assets transferred as of a particular date, and (ii) plan assets added over a designated timeframe post transition to a new custodian. Such fees may be paid by the custodian directly as compensation above and beyond the fixed percentage annual fees based on plan assets, or in some cases, they may be paid pro-rata directly from plan participants’ custodial accounts. Fees payable upon establishment or termination of the client engagement agreement will be prorated for the portion of the calendar quarter covered by such agreement. Clients Are Responsible for Third Party Fees Clients are responsible for the payment of all third-party fees (i.e. custodian fees, brokerage fees, mutual fund fees, transaction fees, etc.). Those fees are separate and distinct from the fees and expenses charged by TBC. Please see Item 12 of this brochure regarding broker/custodian. TBC’s fees do not include the fees of investment or money managers who are selected to manage all or a portion of the Account Assets or who manage pooled investment vehicles in which Account Assets are invested. In addition, costs or charges associated with certain securities transactions, including dealer mark-ups or mark-downs and normal broker commissions, legal and accounting fees, administrator fees, custodian fees, trustee fees, record keeper fees, and account liquidation or termination costs will be separately charged to private wealth management clients or the plan participants’ accounts. Furthermore, the Resonant Funds are responsible for their own expenses such as formation costs and ongoing operational costs such as annual legal, 10 administration, audit, tax, certain technology costs, and marketing costs, etc. as further described in the limited partnership or operating agreement of each Resonant Fund. Consequently, each TBC advisory client who is invested in a Resonant Fund bears its pro rata share of said costs and expenses. Outside Compensation for the Sale of Securities to Clients TBC does not accept commissions or other outside compensation for the sale of securities to Clients. ITEM 6.

However, TBC management has discretion to make exceptions. ITEM 8. METHODS OF ANALYSIS, INVESTMENT STRATEGIES, AND RISK OF INVESTMENT LOSS METHODS OF ANALYSIS TBC’s methods of analysis include charting analysis, fundamental analysis, technical analysis, and cyclical analysis. Charting Analysis involves the use of patterns in performance charts. TBC uses this technique to search for patterns used to help predict favorable conditions for buying and/or selling a security. Fundamental Analysis involves the analysis of financial statements, the general financial health of companies, and/or the analysis of management or competitive advantages. Technical Analysis involves the analysis of past market data; primarily price and volume. Cyclical Analysis involves the analysis of business cycles to find favorable conditions for buying and/or selling a security. INVESTMENT STRATEGIES Investment Strategies utilized by TBC include long term trading, short term trading, private investments, short sales, margin transactions, and options writing (including covered options, uncovered options, or spreading strategies). RISK OF LOSS The information included in this Brochure does not include every potential risk associated with 12 each investment strategy or security. Clients are urged to ask questions regarding risk factors applicable to a particular investment strategy or security, read all product-specific risk disclosures, and determine whether a particular strategy or type of security is suitable for his/her/its own account in light of the circumstances, investment objectives, and financial circumstances of the particular client. Investing in securities involves risk of loss that clients should be prepared to bear. Charting Analysis strategy involves using and comparing various charts to predict long and short- term performance or market trends. The risk involved in solely using this method is that only past performance data is considered without using other methods to crosscheck data. Using charting analysis without other methods of analysis would be making the assumption that past performance will be indicative of future performance. This may not be the case. Fundamental Analysis concentrates on factors that determine a company’s value and expected future earnings. This strategy would normally encourage equity purchases in stocks that are undervalued or priced below their perceived value. The risk assumed is that the market will fail to reach expectations of perceived value. Technical Analysis attempts to predict a future stock price or direction based on market trends. The assumption is that the market follows discernible patterns and if these patterns can be identified then a prediction can be made. The risk is that markets do not always follow patterns and relying solely on this method may not work long term. Cyclical Analysis assumes that the markets react in cyclical patterns which, once identified, can be leveraged to provide performance. The risks with this strategy are two-fold: 1) the markets do not always repeat cyclical patterns and 2) if too many investors begin to implement this strategy, it changes the very cycles they are trying to take advantage of. Long term trading is designed to capture market rates of both return and risk. Frequent trading, when utilized, can affect investment performance, particularly through increased brokerage and other transaction costs and taxes. Short-term trading, short sales, margin transactions, private investments and options writing generally hold greater risk and clients should be aware that there is a material risk of loss using any of those strategies. Investing in securities involves a risk of loss that you, as a client, should be prepared to bear. Risks of Specific Securities Utilized TBC generally seeks investment strategies that do not involve significant or unusual risk beyond that of the general domestic and/or international equity markets (systemic risks). However, it may utilize short sales, margin transactions, private investments and options writing for individual cases. Short sales, margin transactions, private investments and options writing generally hold greater risk of capital loss and clients should be aware that there is a material risk of loss using any of those strategies. Mutual Funds: Investing in mutual funds carries the risk of capital loss. Mutual funds are not guaranteed or insured by the FDIC or any other government agency. You can lose money investing in mutual funds. All mutual funds have costs that lower investment returns. They can be of bond “fixed income” nature (lower risk) or stock “equity” nature (mentioned above). Equities: Generally refers to buying shares of stocks by an individual or firms in return for receiving a future payment of dividends and capital gains if the value of the stock increases. There is an innate risk involved when purchasing a stock that it may decrease in value and the 13 investment may incur a loss. Treasury Inflation Protected/Inflation Linked Bonds: The Risk of default on these bonds is dependent upon the U.S. Treasury defaulting (extremely unlikely); however, they carry a potential risk of losing share price value, albeit rather minimal. Fixed Income is an investment that guarantees fixed periodic payments in the future that may involve economic risks such as inflationary risk, interest rate risk, default risk, repayment of principal risk, etc. Debt Securities: carry risks such as the possibility of default on the principal, fluctuation in interest rates, and counterparties being unable to meet obligations. Stocks & Exchange Traded Funds (ETF): Investing in stocks & ETF's carries the risk of capital loss (sometimes up to a 100% loss in the case of a stock holding bankruptcy). Investments in these securities are not guaranteed or insured by the FDIC or any other government agency. REITs: have specific risks including valuation due to cash flows, dividends paid in stock rather than cash, and the payment of debt resulting in dilution of shares. Long Term Trading: is designed to capture market rates of both return and risk. Due to its nature, the long-term investment strategy can expose clients to various other types of risk that will typically surface at various intervals during the time the client owns the investments. These risks include but are not limited to inflation (purchasing power) risk, interest rate risk, economic risk, market risk, and political/regulatory risk. Short Term Trading: risks include liquidity, economic stability and inflation. Short Sales: risks include the upward trend of the market and the infinite possibility of loss. Margin Transactions: use leverage that is borrowed from a brokerage firm as collateral. Options: involves a contract to purchase or sell a security at a given price at a future date, not necessarily at market value, depending on the market. Private Funds (Hedge Funds, Private Equity Funds, Private Credit, Private Real Estate & Venture Funds): are generally private investments as a limited partner, or limited liability company member, representing a fractional ownership in a private fund run by general partners or managing members with investment control. Limited partners supply capital to invest only and do not have any investment authority, discretion or responsibility. The general partners or managing members are solely responsible for the management of the limited partners' or members’ capital. Private funds have a variety of different investment strategies that range from more conservative to more aggressive, and everything in between. Private funds are considered securities and as such carry investment risk and potential loss. Private funds can have lower volatility and lower correlation to the stock or bond indices, but generally have higher management fees, as well as performance or carried interest fees, which lower overall returns. Most private funds are also less liquid than publicly traded securities and investors can only withdraw money from them on a quarterly, annual, or term of years basis, depending on the type of private fund. Resonant Funds: As discussed above, TBC is the investment manager of and provides advice to the Resonant Funds. Moreover, affiliates of TBC serve as the General Partner to several Resonant Funds structured as limited partnerships. The methods of analysis, investment strategies, & risk of loss for such services are generally described in the respective Resonant 14 Fund’s governing or offering documents. including, without The Resonant Funds will invest primarily in other private funds, provided, however that the Resonant Funds may also make direct and indirect co-investments, sourced by TBC (or its limitation, affiliates), underlying fund managers or third parties, opportunities related to investments made, or to be made, by (A) an underlying fund or other private investment funds or special purpose vehicles ("SPV") sponsored by an underlying fund manager or (B) private investment funds in which other investment funds or SPVs sponsored by TBC are currently or have previously invested or by other private investment funds or SPVs sponsored by such third party investment managers. Factors influencing TBC's determination of whether a targeted fund investment will be a co-investment (as opposed to an investment in an underlying fund) may include, but are not limited to: (i) the underwritten risk and return profile for the investment, (ii) the size of the proposed equity investment; (iii) the availability of the relevant opportunities, (iv) overall portfolio balancing and allocation strategies; (v) market factors and (vi) other requirements of any such targeted fund investment. In the event the TBC elects to sponsor and use a SPV to make a co-investment, TBC may charge fees to investors in said SPV, including investors who may be private wealth clients of TBC. Structured Notes: are sometimes utilized to provide access to broad market indices in a way that provides downside protection from market losses not otherwise readily available in a naked index fund. A structured note is a debt instrument with a set maturity date, underwritten by a financial institution, which tracks to the returns of a specific set of underlying indices and pays cash to the investor at maturity. Structured notes will often utilize a combination of derivatives or options to effectuate upside leverage or downside protection, and those are built into the price and performance of the notes when the note is first structured. Structured notes do not pay the dividends associated with the underlying indices, carry issuer risk if the underwriter becomes insolvent, and are generally considered to be illiquid since the upside and downside is only guaranteed at maturity. Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. Investing in securities involves a risk of loss that you, as a client, should be prepared to bear. ITEM 9. DISCIPLINARY INFORMATION There have been no disciplinary actions against TBC or any of its affiliates. ITEM 10. OTHER FINANCIAL INDUSTRY ACTIVITIES AND AFFILIATIONS TBC provides investment management services to the Resonant Funds. Moreover, TBC affiliates act as the General Partner to certain Resonant Funds that are formed as limited partnerships. TBC will recommend investments in these private funds to those clients for which investment in the funds is suitable. This presents a conflict of interest in that TBC or its related persons may receive more compensation from investment in the Resonant Funds than from other investments. Nevertheless, TBC acts in the best interests of the client consistent with its fiduciary duties, and clients are not required to invest in the Resonant Funds if they do not wish to do so. From time to time as it deems appropriate, TBC will utilize or select third party managers who manage and operate separately managed accounts (“SMA’s”) or pooled investment vehicles to manage certain portions of Client portfolios. Specifically, the Resonant Funds operate as “fund- of-funds” and, thus, invest all of their assets into funds or SMAs managed by third party 15 managers. In such cases, TBC monitors these SMA’s and/or funds in the same manner as it does assets that TBC invests directly. All other assets are managed by TBC management and employees. All material conflicts of interest under Section 260.238 (k) of the California Corporations Code are disclosed regarding the investment adviser, its representatives and affiliates or any of its employees, which could be reasonably expected to impair the rendering of unbiased and objective advice. Neither TBC nor its representatives are registered as or have pending applications to become a registered representative of any FINRA broker dealer. ITEM 11. CODE OF ETHICS, PARTICIPATION OR INTEREST IN CLIENT TRANSACTIONS AND PERSONAL TRADING CODE OF ETHICS We have a written Code of Ethics that covers the following areas: Prohibited Purchases and Sales, Insider Trading, Personal Securities Transactions, Exempted Transactions, Prohibited Activities, Conflicts of Interest, Gifts and Entertainment, Confidentiality, Service on a Board of Directors, Compliance Procedures, Compliance with Laws and Regulations, Procedures and Reporting, Certification of Compliance, Reporting Violations, Compliance Officer Duties, Training and Education, Recordkeeping, Annual Review, and Sanctions. Our Code of Ethics is available free upon request to any client or prospective client. RECOMMENDATIONS INVOLVING MATERIAL FINANCIAL INTERESTS Resonant Funds TBC is the investment manager of the Resonant Funds, a series of private funds formed and sponsored by TBC. TBC will recommend investments in these Resonant Funds to those clients for which investment in the respective fund is suitable. This presents a conflict of interest in that TBC, its affiliates, or related persons may receive more compensation from investment in the Resonant Funds than from other investments. Nevertheless, TBC acts in the best interests of the client consistent with its fiduciary duties and clients are not required to invest in the Resonant Funds if they do not wish to do so. The principals of TBC are personally invested in one or more of the Resonant Funds alongside TBC’s clients. However, TBC’s principals are not charged certain performance-based fees and/or other fees associated with the Resonant Funds that other investors are required to pay. Pension Plans TBC is an advisor to multiple corporate retirement plans, primary 401(k) and cash balance pension plans (“Plan(s)”). These Plans are comprised of underlying constituent participants with whom TBC interacts and provides financial advice to on a regular basis. TBC may endeavor to offer private wealth management services to Plan participants which may result in higher fees being paid to TBC. In providing financial advice to Plan participants, TBC may recommend that a Plan participant roll assets held in another plan into either (i) the Plan or (ii) an IRA with TBC or with another third-party advisor. In such cases, any recommendations will be made based upon what TBC believes to be in the Plan participant’s best interests considering cost, fees in the Plan vs. fees in 16 an IRA or the existing plan, investment flexibility, and the Plan participant’s stated goals and objectives. individualized services provided by TBC to Plan participants, which Any include recommendations concerning the investment of the proceeds of a distribution from the Plan or other assets held outside the Plan will be performed under a separate agreement between TBC and the Plan participant. In providing these services, TBC is acting as a Registered Investment Adviser (“RIA”) and provides investment management consulting services for the management of liquid assets and is compensated for those services on a fee-only basis, based on a percentage of the Plan assets. The above notwithstanding, TBC may receive compensation directly from the plan asset custodian or recordkeeper, via a state insurance license, or via direct invoice paid by the Client, depending upon the manner in which the Plan is established. In certain instances, these fees may include upfront compensation for transitioning a Plan from one custodian, platform or recordkeeper to another. In such cases, fees may be based on (i) a percentage of the value of the Plan assets transferred as of a particular date (typically 1%), and (ii) Plan assets added over a designated timeframe post transition to a new custodian, platform or recordkeeper. Such fees may be paid by the custodian, platform or recordkeeper, directly as compensation above and beyond the fixed percentage annual Fees based on Plan assets, or in some cases, they may be paid pro-rata directly from Plan Participants’ accounts. Allocate Investment Platform Allocate provides access to high-quality private investment opportunities typically inaccessible to most investors due to gated access and high minimum investments. By pooling capital from multiple investors with lower minimum investments, Allocate creates an avenue for wealth advisors to offer their clients access to these high-quality private investment opportunities. For years, TBC has recommended investments offered by Allocate. The firm recognizes the value of access to private investment opportunities previously unavailable to clients. In order to fuel its growth and expansion, Allocate has raised private capital through multiple venture capital funding rounds. TBC participated in one of these rounds and, thus, has a small equity ownership stake in Allocate. TBC will indirectly benefit financially from assets on the Allocate platform and, therefore, the firm could be incentivized to recommend Allocate to its clients. TBC mitigates this risk by fully disclosing this conflict of interest to clients. Clients have the option, but not an obligation, to invest using the Allocate platform. Clients are encouraged to review Allocate’s investment opportunities and discuss with TBC. Investing Personal Money in the Same Securities as Clients From time to time, representatives of TBC may buy or sell securities for themselves that they also recommend to clients. This may provide an opportunity for representatives of TBC to buy or sell the same securities before or after recommending the same securities to clients, resulting in representatives profiting off the recommendations they provide to clients. Such transactions may create a conflict of interest. TBC will always document any transactions that could be construed as conflicts of interest and will always transact client business before their own when similar securities are bought or sold and a potential for material impact on client or TBC pricing is reasonably believed to exist. 17 Trading Securities At/Around the Same Time as Clients’ Securities From time to time, representatives of TBC may buy or sell securities for themselves at or around the same time as clients. This may provide an opportunity for representatives of TBC to buy or sell securities before or after recommending securities to clients, resulting in representatives profiting off the recommendations they provide to clients. Such transactions may create a conflict of interest. TBC will always effect clients’ transactions before its own when similar securities are being bought or sold and a potential for material impact on client or TBC pricing is reasonably believed to exist. ITEM 12. BROKERAGE PRACTICES FACTORS USED TO SELECT CUSTODIANS The Custodian, Schwab Institutional, a division of Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., member FINRA/SIPC (CRD # 5393) (“Schwab”), an SEC-registered broker-dealer, was chosen based on its relatively low transaction fees and access to mutual funds, stocks, bonds and ETFs. TBC will never charge a premium or commission on transactions, beyond the actual cost imposed by the Custodian. RESEARCH AND OTHER SOFT-DOLLAR BENEFITS TBC does not receive research, products, or other services from third parties in connection with client securities transactions (“soft dollar benefits”). The first consideration when recommending Custodians to clients is best execution. TBC always acts in the best interests of the client. TBC does not receive soft dollars generated by transaction fees incurred in placing trades at Schwab. While we do not receive compensation from Schwab for recommending that our clients open accounts with Schwab, we do receive certain benefits including access to (i) client account data; (ii) electronic duplicate statements and confirmations; (iii) pricing and market data; (iv) dedicated institutional, administrative, and trading staff; (v) practice management information and publications; (vi) conferences and educational sessions; and (vii) institutional mutual funds that are not available to retail investors. These benefits may create a potential conflict of interest because clients will pay higher transaction fees than they might pay at other discount brokers. Though there are no known costs to clients resulting from these discounts and services that are provided by Schwab to TBC, there is a financial benefit to TBC. This creates an incentive for TBC to recommend Schwab over another custodian. It is TBC’s policy, however, not to consider the value of such services when recommending a custodian. The factors above are monitored informally on an on-going basis by our investment and operations personnel and by performing an assessment of these and other factors on a periodic basis. Based upon the factors listed above, we are responsible for making a good faith determination that the allocation of business and fees paid is reasonable in relation to the value of the transactions and services provided by counterparties that are used in connection with our clients’ investments. Although we make our recommendations, it is the client’s decision to custody assets with a particular broker dealer. Clients must open accounts with the selected custodian by entering into an account agreement directly with them. We will assist you in the completion of account- opening paperwork necessary to open these accounts. 18 Schwab Advisor Services Schwab is a member SIPC and provides TBC 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 advisors on an unsolicited basis, at no charge to them so long as a total of at least $10 million of the advisers’ clients’ assets are maintained in accounts at Schwab Advisor Services and are not otherwise contingent upon TBC committing to Schwab any specific amount of business (assets in custody or trading). Schwab’s services include brokerage, 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. Schwab enables TBC to obtain many no-load mutual funds without transaction charges and other no-load funds at nominal transaction charges. For TBC’s client accounts maintained in its custody, Schwab generally does not charge separately for custody but is compensated by account holders through commissions or other transaction- related fees for securities trades that are executed through Schwab. TBC typically selects and recommends brokers and/or custodians to clients who, in addition to providing competive execution prices, also provides TBC with access to services and research that it uses for all its clients. TBC feels that these services are valuable to a broad spectrum of their clientele, However, TBC will disclose to all clients that, based on their portfolio content or the services they have contracted for from TBC, some clients may benefit in a disproportionate amount than other clients from these services and research. As discussed above, Schwab makes available other products and services that benefit us but may not directly benefit our clients’ accounts. Many of these products and services assist us in servicing and administering all or some substantial number of our clients’ accounts. TBC seeks to avoid having such benefits impact its recommendation of custodians and selection of investments. These include: • Software and other technology that provide access to client account data (such as trade confirmations and account statements) • Facilitating trade execution • Facilitating allocation of aggregated trade orders (to the extent they have been made) • Providing research, pricing, and other market data • Facilitating payment of our fees from our clients’ accounts • Assisting with back-office functions, recordkeeping, and client reporting We may also receive access to: • Compliance, legal, and business consulting • Publications and conferences on practice management and business operations • Employee benefit providers, human capital consultants, and insurance providers • Industry related continuing education and management training • Industry experts to provide training or speak at events hosted by TBC 19 While as a fiduciary, TBC endeavors to act in its clients’ best interests, our recommendation that clients maintain their accounts at Schwab may be based in part on the benefit to TBC of the availability of some of the foregoing products and services and not solely on the nature, cost, or quality of custody and brokerage services provided by Schwab, which may create a potential conflict of interest. CLIENT REFERRALS TBC receives no referrals from a broker-dealer or third party in exchange for using that broker- dealer or third party. CLIENTS DIRECTING WHICH BROKER/DEALER/CUSTODIAN TO USE TBC will not allow clients to direct TBC to use another specific broker dealer to execute transactions. Clients must use one of TBC recommended custodians (broker- dealer). ORDER AGGREGATION TBC maintains the ability to block trade purchases across accounts. Block trading may benefit a large group of clients by providing TBC the ability to purchase larger blocks of securities resulting in smaller transaction costs to the client. Declining to block trade can result in more expensive trades for clients. ITEM 13. REVIEW OF ACCOUNTS PERIODIC REVIEWS Client accounts are reviewed periodically based upon each client’s portfolio and strategy complexity by one or more TBC IAR’s responsible for and familiar with the clients’ accounts, investment policies and risk tolerance levels. As present, these IAR’s include: Jonathan H. Porter, Managing Partner and CEO; Eric C. Patterson, Managing Partner and CIO; Bill Martin, Chief Investment Strategist, Sunkul Soni, Senior Wealth Advisor; Dean Somes, Senior Wealth Advisor; Steve Stroud, Senior Wealth Advisor; Zach Kerr, Senior Wealth Advisor; Andre Huaman, Partner; Jeff Larsen, Director of Corporate Client Services; Virginia Debbink, Retirement Plan Consultant; Jeff Scheibley, Retirement Plan Consultant, or Chris Fisher, Retirement Plan Consultant (collectively, the “Advisors”). Each Client is assigned to or more Advisors for purposes of these reviews. NON-PERIODIC REVIEWS Reviews may be triggered by material market, economic or political events, or by changes in client's financial situations (such as retirement, termination of employment, physical move, or inheritance). CLIENT REPORTING Each client will receive at least quarterly from the custodian a written report that details the client’s accounts, including assets held and asset values which will come from the custodian. Clients are provided an initial investment plan and TBC utilizes forward-looking financial planning software to provide clients a framework for ongoing implementation and monitoring of the investment plan. The financial planning is included in the TBC investment advisory fees outlined in Item 5. 20 ITEM 14. CLIENT REFERRALS AND OTHER COMPENSATION TBC does not receive any economic benefit, directly or indirectly from any third party for advice rendered to TBC clients. CLIENTS REFERRED BY THIRD PARTIES TBC may compensate certain third parties for Client referrals where TBC provides investment advisory services to a client as a result of the third party’s introduction. These third parties are individuals or entities with whom TBC has substantial and ongoing interactions and who may provide complementary non-competing services to TBC Clients. TBC encourages client referrals from its trusted strategic partners because it believes that doing so reduces time spent on outbound marketing and business development, leaving more time for servicing existing Clients. All such referral activities will be conducted in accordance with Rule 206(4)-1 under the Advisers Act, where applicable. SCHWAB ADVISOR NETWORK TBC receives client referrals from Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”) through TBC’s participation in Schwab Advisor Network® (“SAN”). SAN is designed to help investors find an independent investment advisor. Schwab is a broker dealer independent of and unaffiliated with TBC. Schwab does not supervise TBC and has no responsibility for TBC’s management of clients’ portfolios or TBC’s other advice or services. TBC pays Schwab fees to receive client referrals through SAN. TBC’s participation in SAN raises potential conflicts of interest described below. TBC pays Schwab a Participation Fee on all referred clients’ accounts that are maintained in custody at Schwab and a separate one-time Transfer Fee on all accounts that are transferred to another custodian. The Transfer Fee creates a conflict of interest that encourages TBC to recommend that client accounts be held in custody at Schwab. The Participation Fee paid by TBC is a percentage of the value of the assets in the client’s account. TBC pays Schwab the Participation Fee for so long as the referred client’s account remains in custody at Schwab. The Participation Fee is paid by TBC and not by the client. TBC has agreed not to charge clients referred through the SAN fees or costs greater than the fees or costs TBC charges clients with similar portfolios who were not referred through SAN. The Participation and Transfer Fees are based on assets in accounts of TBC clients who were referred by Schwab and those referred clients’ family members living in the same household. Thus, TBC will have incentives to recommend that client accounts and household members of clients referred through SAN maintain custody of their accounts at Schwab. ITEM 15. CUSTODY With written client authority, TBC can deduct its fees from the client’s account(s). If the client chooses to be billed directly by Schwab, TBC would have constructive custody over that account and must have written authorization from the client to do so. Clients will receive all required account statements and billing invoices that are required in each jurisdiction, and they should carefully review those statements for accuracy. In addition, TBC may be deemed to have custody of client’s assets due to a standing letter of authorization granting TBC third-party money movement authority. In such cases, TBC intends to follow the guidance provided in the SEC’s February 21, 2017 ‘no-action’ letter which sets forth certain conditions that, when followed, allows TBC to avoid the annual surprise examination 21 requirement of the Custody Rule. However, TBC has chosen to subject itself to annual surprise examinations at the request of Schwab. With respect to the Resonant Funds, and future Resonant Funds, TBC does and will have custody of client’s assets committed to those funds by virtue of its role as either the manager or General Partner, directly or through affiliates, of said private funds. Accordingly, each Resonant Fund is audited annually by a TABC-licensed accounting firm. Finally, TBC may be deemed to have custody of client’s assets by virtue of the fact that certain principals or senior employees of TBC act as Trustees to client’s trusts. ITEM 16. INVESTMENT DISCRETION For those client accounts where TBC provides ongoing supervision, the client has given TBC written discretionary authority over the client’s accounts with respect to securities to be bought or sold and the amount of securities to be bought or sold. Details of this relationship are fully disclosed to the client before any advisory relationship has commenced. The client provides TBC discretionary authority via a limited power of attorney in the Investment Advisory Agreement and in the contract between the client and the custodian. ITEM 17. VOTING CLIENT SECURITIES (PROXY VOTING) TBC will not ask for, nor accept voting authority for client securities. 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. ITEM 18. FINANCIAL INFORMATION Neither TBC nor its management have any financial conditions that are reasonably likely to impair our ability to meet our contractual commitments to our clients. TBC does not require, nor solicit, prepayment of more than $1,200 in fees per client, six months or more in advance. 22
