Services include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Investment strategy • Investment Management
• Asset allocation • Asset selection

FAS evaluates the current investments of each client with respect to their risk tolerance

select securities and execute transactions without consulting the client prior to each
transaction.
Performance-based Fees
Qualified investors may be offered performance-based account management with fees
based on net profits above a high-water mark.

Services Limited to Specific Types of Investments
FAS generally limits its investment advice and/or money management to mutual funds,
equities, bonds, fixed income, debt securities, ETFs, real estate, REITs, insurance
products including annuities, and government securities. FAS may use other securities
as well to help diversify a portfolio when applicable.
C. Client Tailored Services and Client Imposed Restrictions
FAS offers the same suite of services to all its clients. However, specific client financial
plans and implementation are dependent upon the unique circumstances of each client’s
current situation (income, tax levels, and risk tolerance levels) and will influence the
selection of a portfolio that matches restrictions, needs, and targets.
Clients may impose restrictions in investing in certain securities or types of securities in
accordance with their goals, values, and beliefs. However, if the restrictions prevent FAS
from properly servicing the client account, or if the restrictions would require FAS to
deviate from its standard suite of services, FAS reserves the right to end the relationship.
D. 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. FAS does not participate in any wrap fee programs.
