Firm Description Cole Wealth Management, LLC (“CWM”) is a fee-based registered investment advisory firm founded in 2005 and headquartered in Scottsdale, AZ. CWM provides financial planning and investment supervisory services to individuals, pension and profit-sharing plans, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and business entities. We recognize that along with financial success comes increased responsibilities and complexity. At CWM, we provide a holistic approach to managing and advising all aspects of our clients’ financial picture. By doing so, we can uncover the critical interdependencies among investments, income and taxes, providing for retirement, expense management, insurance, as well as business counseling and philanthropic decision-making. We recognize that our clients’ unique financial needs and goals change over time, so we offer a full range of financial planning and investment advisory services. Advice is provided through consultation with the client and may include determination of financial objectives, identification of financial issues, cash flow management, investment management, tax planning, insurance review, education funding, retirement planning and estate planning. Investment advice is also an integral part of Financial Planning. Investment advice is provided, with the client making the final decision on the asset allocation of their portfolio. CWM does not act as a custodian of client assets. The client always maintains asset control. CWM places trades for clients under a limited power of attorney with carefully selected brokers or custodians. A written evaluation of each client's initial situation may be provided to the client, often in the form of a net worth statement. Annual reviews are also communicated to provide reminders of the specific courses of action that need to be taken. More frequent reviews occur but are not necessarily communicated to the client unless immediate changes are recommended. Other professionals (e.g., lawyers, accountants, insurance agents, etc.) are engaged directly by the client on an as-needed basis. Conflicts of interest will be disclosed to the client in the unlikely event they should occur. The initial meeting is free of charge and is considered an exploratory interview to determine the extent to which financial planning and investment management may be beneficial to the client. Principal Owners The Cole Family Trust is the only stockholder in CWM. Trustees of the Cole Family Trust are Martin T. Cole and Erica S. Cole. Types of Advisory Services CWM provides investment supervisory services, also known as asset management services; furnishes investment advice through consultations and, on more than an occasional basis, furnishes advice to clients on matters not involving securities, such as financial planning matters, taxation issues, insurance and trust services that often include estate planning. CWM provides both discretionary and non-discretionary advisory services. As of the date of this document, CWM manages approximately $145 million in assets for approximately 285 clients. Approximately $145 million is managed on a discretionary basis, and $0 million is managed on a non-discretionary basis. Tailored Relationships The goals and objectives for each client are documented in our client file. Investment portfolios and advice recommendations are created to reflect the stated goals and objectives. Clients may impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain securities or types of securities. Agreements may not be assigned without client consent. Types of Agreements The following agreements define the typical client relationships. Financial Planning Agreement The CWM Financial Planning Agreement provides for non-discretionary financial planning. Similar services that are provided to our managed clients are available, but the client must request them and will be billed in addition to the fees associated with this program. The fee for a financial plan is predicated upon the facts known at the start of the engagement. The fee range for this program is $500 to $5,000 for Financial Planning which may include, but is not limited to: a net worth statement; a cash flow statement; a review of investment accounts, including reviewing asset allocation and providing repositioning recommendations; a review of retirement accounts and plans including recommendations; a review of insurance policies and recommendations for changes, if necessary; one or more retirement scenarios; estate planning review and recommendations; and education planning with funding recommendations. Detailed advice and specific recommendations are provided as part of a financial plan. Implementation of the recommendations is at the discretion of the client. CWM also provides hourly planning services for clients who need advice on a limited scope of work. The hourly rate for limited scope engagements is $175 to $250 per hour. Since financial planning is a discovery process, situations occur wherein the client is unaware of certain financial exposures or predicaments. In the event that we discover the client’s situation is substantially different than what was disclosed at the initial meeting, a revised fee will be provided for mutual agreement. The client must approve the change of scope in advance of the additional work being performed when a fee increase is necessary. After delivery of a financial plan, future face-to-face meetings may be scheduled

as necessary. Follow-up implementation work is billed separately at the rate of $250 to $500 per hour. CWM generally does not accept clients without investment assets of at least $100,000. However, this minimum is negotiable. Asset Management Agreement The CWM Asset Management Agreement may be executed when financial planning is not provided as part of the relationship. Assets are invested on an ongoing basis utilizing equities (stocks), bonds, no-load or low-load mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, usually through discount brokers or a custodian. Fund companies charge each fund shareholder an investment management fee that is disclosed in the fund prospectus. Discount brokerages may charge a transaction fee for the purchase of some funds. CWM does not share in commissions from brokerage transactions. Stocks and bonds may be purchased or sold through a brokerage account when appropriate. The brokerage firm/custodian charges a fee for stock and bond trades. CWM does not receive any compensation, in any form, from fund companies. Investments may also include warrants, corporate debt securities, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, municipal securities, U. S. government securities, options contracts, initial public offerings (IPOs) and foreign issues.
