Introduction
The investment advisory services of AIM Capital are provided to you through an appropriately licensed
and qualified individual who is an investment adviser representative of AIM Capital (referred to as your
investment adviser representative throughout this brochure).
Description of Advisory Services
The following are descriptions of the primary advisory services of AIM Capital. Please understand that a
written agreement, which details the exact terms of the service, must be signed by you and AIM Capital
before we can provide you the services described below.
Asset Management Services – AIM Capital offers asset management services, which involves AIM
Capital providing you with continuous and ongoing supervision over your specified accounts.
You must appoint our firm as your investment adviser of record on specified accounts (collectively, the
“Account”). The Account consists only of separate account(s) held by qualified custodian(s) under your
name. The qualified custodians maintain physical custody of all funds and securities of the Account, and
you retain all rights of ownership (e.g., right to withdraw securities or cash, exercise or delegate proxy
voting and receive transaction confirmations) of the Account.
The Account is managed by us based on your financial situation, investment objectives and risk
tolerance. We actively monitor the Account and provide advice regarding buying, selling, reinvesting or
holding securities, cash or other investments of the Account.
We will need to obtain certain information from you to determine your financial situation and investment
objectives. You will be responsible for notifying us of any updates regarding your financial situation, risk
tolerance or investment objective and whether you wish to impose or modify existing investment
restrictions; however we will contact you at least annually to discuss any changes or updates regarding
your financial situation, risk tolerance or investment objectives. We are always reasonably available to
consult with you relative to the status of your Account. You have the ability to impose reasonable
AIM Capital Page 5 Form ADV Part 2A Disclosure Brochure
restrictions on the management of your accounts, including the ability to instruct us not to purchase
certain securities.
It is important that you understand that we manage investments for other clients and may give them
advice or take actions for them or for our personal accounts that is different from the advice we provide to
you or actions taken for you. We are not obligated to buy, sell or recommend to you any security or other
investment that we may buy, sell or recommend for any other clients or for our own accounts.
Conflicts may arise in the allocation of investment opportunities among accounts that we manage. We
strive to allocate investment opportunities believed to be appropriate for your account(s) and other
accounts advised by our firm among such accounts equitably and consistent with the best interests of all
accounts involved. However, there can be no assurance that a particular investment opportunity that
comes to our attention will be allocated in any particular manner. If we obtain material, non-public
information about a security or its issuer that we may not lawfully use or disclose, we have absolutely no
obligation to disclose the information to any client or use it for any client’s benefit.
Financial Planning & Consulting Services - AIM Capital offers financial planning services, which
involve preparing a written financial plan covering specific or multiple topics. We provide full written
financial plans, which typically address the following topics: Investment Planning, Retirement Planning,
Insurance Planning, Tax Planning, Education Planning, Portfolios Review, and Asset Allocation. When
providing financial planning and consulting services, the
role of your investment adviser representative is
to find ways to help you understand your
overall financial situation and help you set financial
objectives.
We also provide modular written financial plans which only cover those specific areas of concern mutually
agreed
upon by you and us. A modular written financial plan is limited or segmented and does not
involve the creation of a full written financial plan. You should be aware that there are important issues
that may not be taken into consideration when your investment adviser representative develops his or her
analysis and recommendations under a modular written financial plan. Written financial plans prepared
by us under this Agreement do not include specific recommendations of individual securities.
We also offer consultations in order to discuss financial planning issues when you do not need a written
financial plan. We offer a one-time consultation, which covers mutually agreed upon areas of concern
related to investments or financial planning. We also offer “as-needed” consultations, which are limited
to consultations in response to a particular investment or financial planning issue raised or request made
by you. Under an “as-needed” consultation, it will be incumbent upon you to identify those particular
issues for which you are seeking our advice or consultation on.
Our financial planning and consulting services do not involve implementing any transaction on your behalf
or the active and ongoing monitoring or management of your investments or accounts. You have the sole
responsibility for determining whether to implement our financial planning and consulting
recommendations. To the extent that you would like to implement any of our investment
recommendations through AIM Capital or retain AIM Capital to actively monitor and manage your
investments, you must execute a separate written agreement with AIM Capital for our asset management
services.

Tailor Advisory Services to Individual Needs of Clients

objectives and suitability information. Our financial planning and consulting services are always provided

objectives may be considered incompatible with our investment philosophy or strategies or where the
prospective client seeks to impose unduly restrictive investment guidelines.
