TBC is  the manager  of  and  provides  investment  advice  to  several  private funds. These  include  HMC 
Stacks I, LLC, Resonant Growth Equity I, LLC, Resonant CLO I, LLC, Resonant Absolute Return Fund, LP, 
Resonant Absolute Return Offshore Fund, Ltd., Resonant Strategic Income Fund, LP, Resonant Private 
Equity Fund I, LP, Resonant Vista Access I, LLC and Resonant Venture Capital Fund I, LP (collectively, the 
“Resonant  Funds”).  With  respect  to  Resonant  Absolute  Return  Fund,  LP,  Resonant  Strategic  Income 
Fund, LP, Resonant Private Equity Fund I, LP, and Resonant Venture Capital Fund I, LP affiliates of TBC 
serve as the General Partner to these private funds. The advisory fees that TBC receives for providing 
these services are set forth in the investment management agreement between TBC and each fund. 
Additional detail about the fees charged to an investor in such fund is available in the  respective 
fund’s  governing  or  offering  documents.  Pooled  investment  vehicles are  responsible  for  the 
payment  of  all  third-party  fees  and  expenses  (i.e.  underlying  manager  fees,  custodian  fees, 
brokerage fees, legal fees, accounting/audit fees, administration fees, etc. as applicable). Those fees 
are separate and distinct from the fees and expenses charged by TBC.  
 
Corporate Retirement Plan Services 
 
In addition to private wealth management, TBC also offers advisory services to corporate retirement 
plans. 
•  Investment Management •  Platform Selection 
•  Participant Education •  Plan Design 
•  Fee Benchmarking •  Fiduciary Support 
Investment Management 
One of the most critical functions a plan advisor must provide is selecting, monitoring, and managing 
the  plan  investment  options,  not  just  at  plan  inception,  but  on  an  ongoing  basis.  TBC  uses  a 
sophisticated suite of institutional software to create a well-diversified menu of investment options 
that will allow plan participants to create an asset allocation to meet their specific needs. TBC then 
monitors the fund lineup and, if and when necessary, recommends changes to those investments to 
ensure they remain optimized. 
Platform Selection 
 
One of the first choices a retirement plan client will have to make is platform selection. Retirement 
plan platforms, often referred to as “recordkeepers”, are not one size fits all.  The services, features, 
capabilities,  reporting,  and  pricing  all  vary  greatly  by  platform,  and  it  is  important  to  evaluate 
multiple platforms to find the right fit for each particular plan, based on number of participants, 
projected  growth,  plan  assets,  and  participant sophistication.  TBC  works  agnostically  with  most 
major platform providers, understand the relative strengths of each, and help clients make the right 
choice. 
Plan Design 
Every organization is unique and different.  TBC ensures each company’s retirement plan is custom 
tailored to the client’s specifications and optimized for the organization’s goals and objectives. The 
TBC retirement plan team will meet with the client, discuss goals and objectives, understand what 
the  client  is  looking  to  accomplish  with  the  plan,  and  then  walk  the  client  through  the  various 
options.  TBC will then work in conjunction with the plan administrators to implement a purposeful 
plan design, with targeted recommendations. 
Fiduciary Support 
 
Retirement plan committee members all have other jobs within the organization, and they do not 
have the  time or  resources to stay up  to speed  on and meet their ongoing fiduciary obligations. 
However,  the  consequences  of  failing  in  any  one  of  these  fiduciary  duties  can  be  catastrophic, 
because being a fiduciary means you carry personal liability for certain aspects of the company’s 
retirement plan. We use process-driven software and schedules to assist our clients in meeting their  
fiduciary obligations. When TBC is engaged as a plan advisor, they act as a  co-fiduciary  on  the  plan,  in 
tandem  with  the  plan  committee.  At  the  client’s  election,  TBC  can  act  as  either  a  full  discretionary 
fiduciary,  with  the  ability  to  make  changes  to  the  plan  on  behalf  of  the  committee  (a  Section  3(21) 
fiduciary), or a non-discretionary fiduciary whereby
                                        
                                        
                                             TBC advises the plan  committee  but  the  ultimate 
discretion and action falls upon  the plan committee itself for all actions taken  on behalf of  the plan (a 
Section 3(38)  fiduciary). 
Fee Benchmarking 
 
One of the most critical, and often litigated, fiduciary duties is to ensure that the plan costs are all 
reasonable.  Many  advisors  will  do  this  for  just  the  investment  options.  However,  TBC  not  only 
evaluates and benchmarks fund fees, but also the fees associated with the platform (“recordkeeper”), 
the third-party administrator (if applicable), the auditor, and TBC as the plan advisor. Consistent 
with  the  committee’s  fiduciary  obligation,  TBC  does  this  annually  in  a  comprehensive  fee  
benchmarking  report,  which  is  reviewed  with  the  plan  committee,  and  then  any  necessary 
adjustments and recommendations are implemented to maintain plan compliance. 
Participant Education 
 
Unfortunately, many retirement plans have dismal enrollment and engagement numbers. This is 
most often the result of anemic participant education and training. TBC will work with the plan 
committee to ensure that participants have optimal in-person and online training. TBC’s education 
programs  and  topic  areas  are  client-specific,  meaning  that  employees  are  receiving  targeted 
education materials, information, and training, specific to a particular mandate or perceived need. 
C. Client Tailored Services and Client Imposed Restriction 
TBC offers the same suite of services to all of its clients. However, specific client financial plans and 
their implementation are dependent upon the client Investment Policy Statement which outlines 
each client’s current situation (income, tax levels, and risk tolerance levels) and is used to construct 
a client specific plan to aid in 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 values or beliefs. 
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. TBC DOES 
NOT participate in any wrap fee programs. 
E. Amounts Under Management 
Discretionary Assets Under Management: $ 1,150,048,723 
Non-Discretionary Assets Under Management: $ 2,098,379,734 
TOTAL Assets Under Management: $ 3,248,428,457 
Fee Schedule 
Private Wealth Management Services Fees 
 
 
TBC  charges  private  wealth  clients  a  management  fee  equal  to  a  percentage  multiplied  by  the 
amount  of  total  assets  under  management  that  the  client  has  placed  with  TBC.  The  percentage 
amount ranges from a low of .50% (fifty basis points) to a maximum of 1.00% (one hundred basis 
points) and is determined by the level of a client’s assets under TBC’s management. Generally, the 
more assets a client has placed with TBC, the lower the management fee.  The management fee is 
tiered in that a higher management fee is charged on lower amounts of assets. As a client increases 
the level of assets placed with TBC, a lower fee will be charged as higher asset threshold levels are 
reached. This is often referred to as a “tiered” management fee methodology. Specific management 
fee  percentages  and  tier  threshold  amounts  are  stated  in  each  client’s  Investment  Advisory 
Agreement.  
These fees are negotiable depending upon the needs of the client and complexity of the situation, 
and the final fee schedule is attached as Exhibit II of the Investment Advisory Agreement. Fees are 
paid quarterly in arrears based upon average daily balance, and clients may terminate their contracts 
with written notice to TBC. Because fees are charged in arrears, no refund policy is necessary. Clients 
may  terminate  their  accounts  without  penalty  within  5  business  days  of  signing  the  advisory 
contract.  Advisory  fees  are  withdrawn  directly  from  the  client’s  accounts  with  client  written 
authorization. 
In the event that margin transactions are used in a client account, the client may be charged fees and 
interest by the custodian providing the margin.  Such fees and interest may vary based on the custodian
