ADVISORY SERVICES
Investment Management
Odeon Capital Advisors LLC offers discretionary and non-discretionary continuous investment
management services where the investment advice provided is tailored to meet the client’s
investment objectives, risk tolerance, cash or income needs and any investment restrictions. We
offer an initial consultation in which pertinent information about the client’s personal and financial
circumstances and objectives is collected, and the scope of the engagement is determined.
Although OCA seeks to accommodate any reasonable investment restrictions or guidelines set by
our clients, we reserve the right to decline to accommodate certain investment restrictions that are
incompatible with our Firms’ investment philosophy or that may have an adverse effect on our
ability to manage your portfolio. Clients may request that OCA refrain from investing in particular
securities or certain types of securities and must provide these restrictions to OCA in writing at the
onset of the relationship or in advance.
When OCA enters into a discretionary agreement—part of the Investment Management
Agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”)—with the client, this agreement will grant
OCA the discretion and authority to manage the client’s account subject to any written guidelines
or restrictions that the client may provide. Specifically, the client grants OCA full power to direct,
manage and change the investment and reinvestment of the assets in the account without prior
approval from the client. Such functions may include the determination of securities and/or funds
and the amount of securities to be purchased or sold. Our authority over clients’ investments
includes discretionary authority to purchase and sell securities for the client’s account and to give
instructions concerning these transactions to the qualified custodian with which the clients’
securities are held. We are not required to first consult with clients before placing any specific
order or obtain specific authorization from the client for each specific transaction. Our advice is
generally limited to stocks, exchange traded funds, bonds, mutual funds, U.S. Treasury securities,
municipal securities, options, private funds and alternative investments, but we reserve the right
to advise or not advise our clients on certain investments should we deem it appropriate based on
their particular circumstances. Once the portfolio is constructed, OCA will provide ongoing review
and rebalancing of the portfolio as changes in market
conditions and the client’s circumstances
dictate.
To ensure that our initial determination of an appropriate portfolio remains suitable and that the
account continues to be managed in a manner consistent with the client’s investment objectives,
we will maintain quarterly contact with our clients in terms of portfolio construction, transactions
and performance.
For non-discretionary investment management services, OCA will review client assets and provide
recommendations to clients. Specifically, we make recommendations to clients, but we will not
purchase or sell securities for the client’s account, submit aggregated trader orders for the client
and others in order to obtain best execution, or give instructions concerning these transactions to
the qualified custodian with which the clients’ account without first receiving consent from clients.
The client is free at all times to accept or reject any of our investment recommendations.
OCA enters into formal written agreements with our clients setting forth the terms and conditions
under which we will provide our services. The Investment Management Agreement sets forth the
scope of the services to be provided and the compensation we receive from the client for our
services. The Investment Management Agreement can be terminated by either party in writing at
any time by giving thirty (30) days signed written notice to the other party. The management fee
will be prorated to the date of termination. Upon the termination of this Agreement, OCA will
have no obligation to recommend or take any action with regard to the securities, cash or other
investments in the client’s account.
