Capital Management, LLC offers the following advisory services to our clients:
INDIVIDUAL PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Our firm provides asset management of client funds based on the individual needs of the client. Through
personal discussions in which goals and objectives based on the client's particular circumstances are
established, we develop the client's personal investment profile. We create and manage a portfolio
based on that profile. During our data-gathering process, we determine the client's individual objectives,
time horizons, risk tolerance, and liquidity needs. As appropriate, we may also review and discuss a
client's prior investment experience and history, as well as family composition and background.
We manage these advisory accounts on a discretionary and non-discretionary basis. Account supervision
is guided by the client's stated objectives (i.e., maximum capital appreciation, growth, income, or
growth and income), as well as tax considerations.
Clients may impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain securities, types of securities, or
industry sectors.
Once the client's portfolio has been established, we review the portfolio at least annually, and if
necessary, rebalance the portfolio on an annual basis, based on the client's individual needs.
Our investment recommendations are not limited to any specific product or service offered by a broker-
dealer or insurance company and will generally include advice regarding the following securities:
• Exchange-listed securities
• Corporate debt securities (other than commercial paper)
• Certificates of deposit
• Municipal securities
• Mutual fund shares
• United States governmental securities
• Options contracts on securities
Because some types of investments involve certain additional degrees of risk, they will only
be recommended when consistent with the client's stated investment objectives, tolerance for risk,
liquidity and suitability.
RETIREMENT PLAN CONSULTING SERVICES
We also provide several advisory services separately or in combination. While the primary clients for
these services will be pension, profit sharing and 401(k) plans, we offer these services, where
appropriate, to individuals and trusts, estates and charitable organizations. Pension Consulting Services
are comprised of four distinct services. Clients may choose to use any or all of these services.
We will meet with the client (in person or over the telephone) to determine an appropriate investment
strategy that reflects the plan sponsor's stated investment objectives for management of the overall
plan. Our firm then prepares a written summary outlining those needs and goals, including an
encompassing policy under which these goals are to be achieved. This also includes a list of the criteria
for selection of investment vehicles as well as the procedures and timing interval for monitoring of
investment performance.
Selection of Investment Vehicles:
We assist plan sponsors in constructing appropriate asset allocation models. We will then review various
mutual funds (both index and managed) to determine which investments are appropriate to implement
the client's IPS. The number of investments to be recommended will be determined by the client, based
on the IPS.
Monitoring of Investment Performance:
We monitor client investments continually,
based on the procedures and timing intervals delineated in
the Advisory agreement. Although our firm is not involved in any way in the purchase or sale of these
investments, we supervise the client's portfolio and will make recommendations to the client as market
factors and the client's needs dictate.
Employee Communications:
We may provide educational support and investment workshops designed for the plan participants
when the plan sponsor engages our firm to provide these services. The nature of the topics to be
covered will be determined by us and the client. The educational support and investment workshops
will NOT provide plan participants with individualized, tailored investment advice or individualized,
tailored asset allocation recommendations.
FINANCIAL PLANNING
We provide financial planning services. Financial planning is an evaluation of a client's current and future
financial state by using currently known variables to predict future cash flows, asset values and
withdrawal plans. Through the financial planning process, all questions, information and analysis are
considered as they impact and are impacted by the entire financial and life situation of the client. Clients
purchasing this service receive a written report which provides the client with a detailed financial plan
designed to assist the client achieve his or her financial goals and objectives.
In general, the financial plan can address any or all of the following areas:
• PERSONAL: We review family records, budgeting, personal liability, estate information and
financial goals.
• TAX & CASH FLOW: We review the client's income tax and spending and planning for past,
current and future years; then illustrate the impact of various investments on the client's
current income tax and future tax liability.
• INVESTMENTS: We analyze investment alternatives and their effect on the client's portfolio.
• INSURANCE: We may review existing policies to ensure proper coverage for life, health,
disability, long-term care.

dependents, estate planning and disability income.

strategies, including as appropriate, living trusts, wills, review estate tax, powers of attorney,
asset protection plans, nursing homes, Medicaid and elder law.
We gather required information through in-depth personal interviews. Information gathered includes
the client's current financial status, tax status, future goals, returns objectives and attitudes towards
risk. We carefully review documents supplied by the client, including a questionnaire completed by the
client, and prepare a written report. Should the client choose to implement the recommendations
contained in the plan, we suggest the client work closely with his/her attorney, accountant, insurance
agent, and/or stockbroker. Implementation of financial plan recommendations is entirely at the client's
discretion.
We also provide general non-securities advice on topics that may include tax and budgetary planning,
estate planning and business planning.

provided that all information needed to prepare the financial plan has been promptly provided.
