Authentikos Managed Account We work with you to identify your investment goals and objectives, as well as risk tolerance, in order to create a portfolio allocation designed to complement your financial situation and personal circumstances. The investment strategies selected, along with the associated portfolio construction and management, depends primarily on your investment objectives and goals. You will work with an investment adviser representative (“IAR”) of Authentikos who will utilize their own management style and experience to help implement your portfolio. We utilize different types of investments to assist clients in meeting their financial goals. Our investment recommendations are not limited by any specific product or service offered by a broker- dealer or custodian. These investment recommendations include, but are not limited to, mutual funds, equities, options, fixed income, closed-end mutual funds, exchange traded funds, variable life and annuity subaccounts, limited partnerships, and other types of investments. Model portfolios and margin can be used as a part of this strategy. We will consider the use of reasonable restrictions on the type of investments to be held in the portfolio. Portfolios which restrict a significant number of investments, including entire sectors and/or industries, can impact our ability to act on potential investment opportunities which could result in performance for your account that is different from similar accounts without such restrictions. Your IAR may periodically rebalance your account in which we have discretionary authority to maintain the initially agreed upon strategic and tactical asset allocation. However, no changes are made to the agreed-upon asset allocation in nondiscretionary accounts without your prior review and consent. AE Wealth Model Portfolio Program The AE Wealth Management (AEWM) program provides clients with access to model portfolio selection services through a wrap fee program, which allows Authentikos and AE Wealth Management to exercise discretion to select model portfolios managed by the AEWM investment committee and/or certain third-party non-affiliated investment managers. Authentikos will assist you in completing a client profile questionnaire and review the information you provide in order to select the model portfolio(s) that aligns with your 5 | P a g e AUTHENTIKOS WEALTH ADVISORY, LLC disclosed risk tolerance and investment objectives. AEWM uses a third-party platform provider to implement the model portfolios for clients. The platform provider is given discretionary authority to implement the selected model portfolio(s) and to trade your account based on information and/or signals provided by the manager(s) of the model portfolio(s). The platform provider will implement the model(s) for your account by acquiring the securities that are represented in the selected model portfolio(s). Your IAR will be available to answer questions that you may have regarding your account. We will have the ability to select the model portfolio(s) as well as the ability to reallocate funds from or to the model portfolio(s) and funds in other accounts over which you have granted us discretionary authority. For complete details regarding the model portfolio selection services offered through a wrap fee program, please refer to the AE Wealth Wrap Fee Program Brochure (Form ADV, Part 2A Appendix) which can be found by accessing AE Wealth’s Disclosure Documents at https://aewealthmanagement.com/disclosures.

Please see Item 5 – Fees and Compensation for additional information. You should be aware that there are other model portfolios not recommended by AEWM or Authentikos that are suitable for you which could be less costly than model
