Investment Advisory Services to individuals, high net worth individuals, trusts and other clients.
LIP provides continuous and ongoing investment advisory solutions and asset management services pursuant to an
investment advisory agreement. LIP offers customized solutions for its Clients. This is achieved through personal
Client contact and interaction while providing non-discretionary and/or discretionary asset management and related
advisory services. LIP works closely with each Client to identify their investment goals, objectives, risk tolerance and
financial situation in order to create either limited and specific or comprehensive portfolio strategies. LIP will often
recommend an investment portfolio consisting of alternative investments, individual stocks, bonds, options, mutual
funds and exchange traded funds ("ETFs"). LIP will also recommend investment in pooled investment vehicles (each
a "Private Fund"), including the Fund where the Advisor acts as the investment manager of the Fund.
LIP's investment strategies are primarily long-term focused, but the Advisor may buy, sell or re-allocate positions that
have been held for less than one year to meet the objectives of the Client or due to market conditions. LIP will construct,
implement and monitor the portfolio to ensure it meets the broad goals, objectives, circumstances, and risk
tolerance appropriate to the Client. Each Client will have the opportunity to place reasonable restrictions on the types
of investments to be held in their respective portfolio, subject to acceptance by the Advisor. LIP evaluates and
selects investments for inclusion in Client portfolios only after applying due diligence and analysis; the
levels of which will differ according to LIP resources and team member competencies. LIP may recommend, on
occasion, redistributing investment allocations to diversify the portfolio. LIP may recommend specific positions
to increase sector or asset class weightings. The Advisor may recommend employing cash positions as a possible
hedge against market
movement.
LIP may recommend selling positions for reasons that include, but are not limited to, harvesting capital gains or
losses, business or sector risk exposure to a specific security or class of securities, overvaluation or overweighting
of the position[s] in the portfolio, change in risk tolerance of the Client, generating cash to meet Client needs, or
any risk deemed unacceptable for the Client's risk tolerance.
At no time will LIP accept or maintain custody of a Client's funds or securities, except for the limited authority as outlined
in Item 15 - Custody. All Client assets will be managed within the designated account[s] at the Custodian, pursuant to
the terms of the advisory agreement. Please see Item 12 - Brokerage Practices.

Retirement Accounts-When the Advisor provides investment advice to Clients regarding ERISA retirement accounts
or individual retirement accounts ("IRAs"), the Advisor is a fiduciary within the meaning of Title I of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA") and/or the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"), as applicable, which are laws
governing retirement accounts. When deemed to be in the Client's best interest, the Advisor will provide investment
advice to a Client regarding a distribution from an ERISA retirement account or to roll over the assets to an IRA, or
recommend a similar transaction including rollovers from one ERISA sponsored Plan to another, one IRA to another
IRA, or from one type of account to another account (e.g. commission-based account to fee-based account). Such a
recommendation creates a conflict of interest if the Advisor will earn a new (or increase its current) advisory fee as a result
of the transaction. No client is under any obligation to roll over a retirement account to an account managed by the
Advisor.
A. Client Account Management
Prior to engaging LIP to provide investment advisory services, each Client is required to enter into an agreement with
the Advisor that defines the terms, conditions, authority and responsibilities of the Advisor and the Client. These
services may include:
• Establishing an Investment Strategy- where LIP, in connection with the Client, will develop a strategy that
seeks to achieve the Client's goals and objectives.
• Asset Allocation - where LIP will develop a strategic asset allocation that is targeted to meet the
investment objectives, time horizon, financial situation and risk tolerance for each Client.
• Investment Management and Supervision - where LIP will provide investment management and ongoing
oversight of the Client's investment portfolio.
B. Wrap Fee Programs
LIP does not manage or place Client assets into a wrap fee program. Investment management services are provided
directly by LIP.
C. Assets Under Management
As of December 31, 2023 LIP managed $207,435,728 of regulatory assets under management. $60,726,285 is
