Unified Managed Account Program We offer discretionary investment management services in a managed account program through an Overlay Manager (the “UMA Program”). This UMA program may consist of using model portfolio advisors, model portfolio’s or other investment options such as mutual funds and/or exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) to represent different investment strategies for managing your account. Each of these investment strategies is designed to meet a specific goal. Prior to investing in the UMA Program, you will execute a discretionary investment management agreement with us setting forth the terms and conditions of our management services the client selects. The client will grant us limited discretionary authority to manage the client account through selection of an overlay manager (“Overlay Manager”), third party strategist (“Strategist”) and/or third party mangers (“Managers”; collectively, “Third Party Service Providers”). In addition, the client will authorize the custodian to follow our instructions as well as instructions given by Overlay Manager to effect transactions, deliver securities, deduct fees and take other actions with respect to the client account. The client will not have a direct contractual relationship with the Overlay Manager or any Third-Party Service Provider. The timing of trades in the client’s account will primarily depend upon the model or changes in the model, and, generally will not take into consideration how long a client may have held the position indicated by the model. We will retain the right to replace any strategist or manager on a discretionary basis. Depending on the service a client has selected, we will separately provide the client with the firm brochure (Part 2 of Form ADV) for the applicable Third- Party Service Provider(s) which includes information about their services, model portfolios, and investment strategies at or before the execution of our discretionary investment management agreement. Tax Overlay Management Services Tax overlay management services are available as an option for accounts utilizing the UMA Program through the Overlay Manager. If you elect tax overlay management services, the portion of your fee paid as the management fee on your account will increase. The Overlay Manager will develop a tax strategy for your account based on the information and instructions provided by us on your behalf. Tax overlay management services in an investment account offer benefits and limitations, as described below. The tax strategy developed for you by the Overlay Manager is provided solely in connection with your account and the Overlay Manager does not provide general tax planning services. If you do elect the tax overlay management services option, please consider the following: • The Tax Overlay Manager will implement tax overlay management services based on the information and instructions provided for your account(s). • The Tax Overlay Manager does not provide general tax advice, tax return preparation or tax planning services. The Tax Overlay Manager will seek to reduce the overall tax burden of the account while seeking to maintain the risk and return characteristics of the model portfolios received from Strategists and/or Managers. • When providing tax overlay management services to the account, short-term gains are avoided where possible, but long-term gains are not limited unless you have requested a mandate to limit realized long-term gains. The Overlay Manager will provide tax overlay management services with the assumption that the Overlay Manager will continue to provide services to the account for an entire tax year. The termination or removal of the overlay management services before the completion of an entire tax year may result in adverse tax consequences, including without limitation realization of short term capital gains. Regardless of your account size or any other factors, we strongly recommend that you continuously consult with a tax professional prior to and throughout the investing of your assets. The Tax Overlay Management Services are offered at an additional cost to you. Termination of Agreement A client may terminate any of the aforementioned agreements at any time by notifying RJA in writing and paying the rate for the time spent on the investment advisory engagement prior to notification of termination.
