To better clarify potential conflicts of interest that may exist between the Firm, the Investment
Advisor, and you, Form ADV, Part 2, commonly referred to as the "brochure," explains to a client or potential client an investment adviser's qualifications,
investment strategies, and business practices. Under the amendments adopted on July 21, 2010 by the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")
investment advisers are required to prepare a narrative, "plain-English," brochure, presented in a consistent, uniform manner that will make it easier for clients to
compare different investment advisers' disclosures. RIAs are required to fill out a form ADV at least annually, and are required to update their ADV information
whenever they experience a substantive change in their firm. This form is available on the website for download (
