4: Advisory Business

The Advisory Business

Pawol Capital LLC primarily manages hedge funds for clients. Hedge funds are pooled investments
where clients give us discretion to make investment choices for them based on various strategies and
objectives that we, the firm, and the individual client agrees upon.

Our services are generally built for high wealth clients, businesses, or clients with at least $750,000
assets under our management. Clients who do not fit into those categories may be turned away
because of securities laws requirements for accredited investors.

The firm also offers wealth management services where we manage an individual client's accounts
with an objective specified by the client. Client's of our wealth management services may discuss their
accounts with us as often as necessary to ensure their assets are being managed as needed.

Pawol Capital 'Select Funds'

The objectives of our Select Funds are set by the fund's managers and advisers. The managers and
advisers of the fund will maintain a specific strategy. Changing client objectives do not change or
effect the fund. In the event that a client's objectives may change, we will advise the client to another
more suitable product or service.

Pawol Capital 'Premium Funds'

The objectives of our Premium Funds are set out by the fund's clients (partners). Changing client
objectives will directly effect the fund. If a client's stray too far from our other clients in the fund then
we will advise the client into a new more fitting product or service.

Pawol Capital Portfolio Management

Our portfolio management services are tailored to meet the needs of individual clients, based on a
mutually agreed upon strategy. Clients may meet with us at any time to re-evaluate their portfolio and
discuss their current needs and objectives – we will change their portfolio objectives as needed.


Item 5: Fees and Compensation (and service details)

How Fees are Paid For

On our fees may be paid by check or wire transfer. For our hedge funds products, fees are taken
directly out of the client's account.

Our Fees

Generally, our fees are set forth based on the following:

   •   Assets under management (AUM)
   •   Performance

What is not charged a fee:

   •   There is no fee for meetings or advisement
   •   There is no hourly fee

                                                                                        Pawol Capital LLC
                                                                                                  Page 5

   •   There is no minimum fee
   •   There is, generally, no sales charge or buy-in fee

All fees are negotiable. Negotiating fees depends on various factors such as relation to the client,
amount of initial investment, ease of strategy, amount of leverage needed, and additional transaction
fees or expenses associated with the account.

Higher initial investments receive price breaks. Price breaks depend on the product type – for
instance, Select Funds have more price breaks since average investment is smaller whereas Premium
Funds have few price breaks since required investment is much higher.

AUM Fees

These fees are generally paid annually and are recalculated annually. AUM fees are usually between
1.0 and 2.0%.

Performance Fees

These fees are mostly attached to hedge fund products and are higher in funds that are more actively
managed or produce higher than usual total returns. A normal actively managed hedge fund has a
performance fee of about 10% of the total returns created by our firm for the client. Performance fees
are generally paid out of client's account monthly. Client's may request to pay performance fees
quarterly for a slightly higher fee.

Other Fees Paid in Connection To Advisory Services

Fees paid to closed-end funds, ETFs, and various other securities are different than the fees which are
paid the firm. These fees are generally very small (less than 1% of the total amount invested in the
security) and vary in occurrence. These type of fees are paid by the clients directly out of their
investment.

For our wealth management services, Brokerage fees, transaction fees, and subscription fees are
charged to the clients account.

Performance-Based Fee Conflicts of Interest

Since we charge a performance fee to some hedge fund products, there is a conflict of interest. In
that, we mean that our management may be tempted to take on riskier investments so to induce


                                                                                   Pawol Capital LLC

higher performance. Each product we manage sets forth the risk tolerance level and clients should
only invest in a fund that meets their specific risk tolerance and objectives.


Item 6: Performance-Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management

Pawol Capital LLC charges a performance-based fee on some the firm's hedge fund products.
Performance-based fees are charged as a percentage of total return created by the firm for it's clients.

For example: In a year where there is a 10% performance fee, a total gain of $100 would create a
performance-based fee of $10.


Item 7: Types of Clients

The firm mainly provides investment advice to accredited investors. This includes wealthy individuals,
businesses, and clients who invest at least $750,000 into one of our funds.

As of 9/10/2012, the definition of an accredited investor is as follows (excludes financial institutions):
    • Corporations or partnerships with assets exceeding $5 million
    • A director, officer, general partner of a company selling securities
    • Business in which all the equity owners are accredited investors
    • Person who has an individual net worth (or joint net worth with spouse) that exceeds $1
        million. This does NOT include the value of the primary residence, but DOES include real
        estate.
    • Person who made $200,000 each of the last two years or joint income with a spouse exceeding
        $300,000 in those two years with a reasonable expectation of the same income level in the
        current year
    • A trust with assets in excess of $5 million, not formed to acquire the securities offered, whose

Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of
Loss

Pawol Capital LLC provides clients with analysis, research, due diligence, account monitoring, and
recommendations to our clients. Clients of the firm receive the benefit of Pawol Capital LLC quant and
formulaic strategies, expansive research and proprietary analysis. Each clients with be evaluated to
assess the what the correct objective and risk level he or she should enter. Clients who wish to take on
more risk than recommended must sign an investment risk disclosure explaining that they understand
the risks that they are taking.

Methods of Analysis

In designing investments for client's portfolios, Pawol Capital LLC relies solely on the information
supplied by the clients and occasionally the clients' other professional advisors. This information
include detailed financial condition, current investments, emergency funds, employment history,
financial goals, age, lifetime plans, investment time horizon and perceived risk tolerance. We believe
with this information we can place the client in investments which match their goals and objectives.

Investment Strategies

Our hedge funds use strategies that involve formulaic and algorithmic models. We use these
sophisticated computer calculations to evaluate the market and individual securities. Upon evaluation,
we can deduce what securities will fit which our client's objectives.

Every security also goes through advanced technical analysis and fundamental analysis. Technical
analysis is a way of comparing a securities current chart pattern to historical chart movements.
Fundamental analysis is done by analyzing a company's financial condition and situation through their
financial statements, industry information, and research reports.


Types of Investments

Each hedge fund or client portfolio will consist of a variety or securities based on their risk tolerance
and investment goals. Any client portfolio may consist of securities on the follow page any any time.
Depending on the current market we may shift from one type of security to another.

Growth Stocks

Stock of a company that has had faster than average gains in earnings and is expected to continue to.
Growth stocks usually don't provide dividends. They carry the higher risk, but also may provide a
higher return.

Value Stocks

Stock of a companies which is perceived to be undervalued. Generally, value stocks are of companies
which are financially sound.

Strategy-specific ETFs

ETFs or exchanged traded funds are investment funds traded on public stock exchanges. They are
invested in a number of stocks or other securities that fit into the fund's strategy.

To fit certain strategies we may invest in ETFs which have a strategy that fits our fund's current
objective. For example, we may invest in Low Volatility ETFs during a time when we are trying to
remain invested in only conservative securities.

Sector ETFs

These are ETFs that invest in the stock of companies which are all from the same sector. For example
one ETF might invest in only bank stocks while another would invest in only oil and gas companies.

Leveraged ETFs

These ETFs use leverage to give much higher return than regular ETFs. This type of ETF also comes
with high risk. They are usually built as sector ETFs or cap specific ETFs where they only invest in
stocks of the same market cap (ie small cap, mid cap, large cap).

Publicly Traded Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs)

REITs are the stock of companies which invest in real estate, either through properties or mortgages.
REITs receive special tax considerations by paying out 90% or more of their net income to
shareholders and typically offer investors high yields, as well as a highly liquid method of investing in
real estate.

Risk of Loss

Investing in securities involves a risk of loss that clients should bear in mind. Our investment
recommendations attempt to limit risk exposure by using sophisticated valuation and technical
models, but all investments carry risk of total loss no matter their 'implied' amount of risk.

Pawol Capital LLC seeks to achieve a positive return for investors, but this can not be guaranteed, and
investment objectives cannot be guaranteed to be met.

Risk of Loss, Certain Higher-Risk Securities

In the US marketplace, there are certain securities which possess a higher than average risk to
investors. This includes, but is not limited to, small cap stocks, leveraged ETFs, small cap funds and
developmental company stocks.

Pawol Capital LLC may employ these type of securities in a clients portfolio to reach their investment
goals and objectives.

Types of Risk

To educate clients, the following are risks that must considered.

   •   Interest-Rate Risk: Fluctuations in interest rates may cause investment prices to fluctuate. For
       example, when interest rates rise, yields on existing bonds become less attractive, causing their
       market values to decline.
   •   Market Risk: The price of a security, bond, or mutual fund may drop in reaction to tangible and
       intangible events and conditions. This type of risk is caused by external factors independent of
       a security's particular underlying circumstances. For example, political, economic, and social
       conditions may trigger market events.
   •   Inflation Risk: When inflation is present, a dollar today will not buy as much as a dollar next
       year, because purchasing power is eroding at the rate of inflation.
   •   Currency Risk: Overseas investments are subject to fluctuations in the value of the dollar
       against the currency of the investment's originating country. This is also referred to as
       exchange rate risk. Note to currency risk: Pawol Capital LLC attempts to limit investment in
       most US-listed foreign stock (ADRs) and foreign bonds in order to decrease currency risk.
   •   Reinvestment Risk: This is the risk that future proceeds from investments may have to be
       reinvested a potentially lower rate of return (ie interest rate). This primarily relates to bonds
       and other fixed income securities.
   •   Business Risk: These risks are associated with a particular industry or a particular company
       within an industry. For example, oil-drilling companies depend on finding oil and then refining
       it, a lengthy process, before they can generate a profit. They carry a higher risk of profitability
       than an electric company, which generates its income from a steady stream of customers who
       buy electricity no matter what the economic environment is like.
   •   Liquidity Risk: Liquidity is the ability to readily convert an investment into cash. Generally,
       assets are more liquid if many traders are interested in a standardized product. For example,
       Treasury Bills are highly liquid, while real estate properties are not.
   •   Financial Risk: Excessive borrowing to finance a business' operations increases the risk of
       probability of bankruptcy because the company must meet the terms of its obligations in good
       times and bad. During periods of financial stress, the inability to meet loan obligations may
       result in bankruptcy and/or a declining market value.
   •   Small Capital Stock Risk: Small companies often have narrower markets and limited financial
       resources, so investments in these stocks present more risk than investments in those of larger,
       more established Co’s.

Available Services Objectives Our services are all designed to meet the objectives of certain individual clients. We take careful consideration when moving any of our client's assets into any specific objective by assessing the client's needs, risk tolerance, and financial situation. Investments or inclusion into our hedge fund products for our clients are always mutually agreed upon before executing any transactions. Pawol Capital LLC Page 4
  • 5. Form ADV Part 2A (“Firm Brochure”) for Pawol Capital LLC Pawol Capital 'Select Funds' The objectives of our Select Funds are set by the fund's managers and advisers. The managers and advisers of the fund will maintain a specific strategy. Changing client objectives do not change or effect the fund. In the event that a client's objectives may change, we will advise the client to another more suitable product or service. Pawol Capital 'Premium Funds' The objectives of our Premium Funds are set out by the fund's clients (partners). Changing client objectives will directly effect the fund. If a client's stray too far from our other clients in the fund then we will advise the client into a new more fitting product or service. Pawol Capital Portfolio Management Our portfolio management services are tailored to meet the needs of individual clients, based on a mutually agreed upon strategy. Clients may meet with us at any time to re-evaluate their portfolio and discuss their current needs and objectives – we will change their portfolio objectives as needed. Item 5: Fees and Compensation (and service details) How Fees are Paid For On our fees may be paid by check or wire transfer. For our hedge funds products, fees are taken directly out of the client's account. Our Fees Generally, our fees are set forth based on the following: • Assets under management (AUM) • Performance What is not charged a fee: • There is no fee for meetings or advisement • There is no hourly fee Pawol Capital LLC Page 5
  • 6. Form ADV Part 2A (“Firm Brochure”) for Pawol Capital LLC • There is no minimum fee • There is, generally, no sales charge or buy-in fee All fees are negotiable. Negotiating fees depends on various factors such as relation to the client, amount of initial investment, ease of strategy, amount of leverage needed, and additional transaction fees or expenses associated with the account. Higher initial investments receive price breaks. Price breaks depend on the product type – for instance, Select Funds have more price breaks since average investment is smaller whereas Premium Funds have few price breaks since required investment is much higher. AUM Fees These fees are generally paid annually and are recalculated annually. AUM fees are usually between 1.0 and 2.0%. Performance Fees These fees are mostly attached to hedge fund products and are higher in funds that are more actively managed or produce higher than usual total returns. A normal actively managed hedge fund has a performance fee of about 10% of the total returns created by our firm for the client. Performance fees are generally paid out of client's account monthly. Client's may request to pay performance fees quarterly for a slightly higher fee. Other Fees Paid in Connection To Advisory Services Fees paid to closed-end funds, ETFs, and various other securities are different than the fees which are paid the firm. These fees are generally very small (less than 1% of the total amount invested in the security) and vary in occurrence. These type of fees are paid by the clients directly out of their investment. For our wealth management services, Brokerage fees, transaction fees, and subscription fees are charged to the clients account. Performance-Based Fee Conflicts of Interest Since we charge a performance fee to some hedge fund products, there is a conflict of interest. In that, we mean that our management may be tempted to take on riskier investments so to induce Pawol Capital LLC Page 6
  • 7. Form ADV Part 2A (“Firm Brochure”) for Pawol Capital LLC higher performance. Each product we manage sets forth the risk tolerance level and clients should only invest in a fund that meets their specific risk tolerance and objectives. Item 6: Performance-Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management Pawol Capital LLC charges a performance-based fee on some the firm's hedge fund products. Performance-based fees are charged as a percentage of total return created by the firm for it's clients. For example: In a year where there is a 10% performance fee, a total gain of $100 would create a performance-based fee of $10. Item 7: Types of Clients The firm mainly provides investment advice to accredited investors. This includes wealthy individuals, businesses, and clients who invest at least $750,000 into one of our funds. As of 9/10/2012, the definition of an accredited investor is as follows (excludes financial institutions): • Corporations or partnerships with assets exceeding $5 million • A director, officer, general partner of a company selling securities • Business in which all the equity owners are accredited investors • Person who has an individual net worth (or joint net worth with spouse) that exceeds $1 million. This does NOT include the value of the primary residence, but DOES include real estate. • Person who made $200,000 each of the last two years or joint income with a spouse exceeding $300,000 in those two years with a reasonable expectation of the same income level in the current year • A trust with assets in excess of $5 million, not formed to acquire the securities offered, whose purchases a sophisticated person makes. There is no expectation for this rule changing, but the current rule including the ruling in regards to financial companies can be found at the following web address: http://www.sec.gov/answers/accred.htm Pawol Capital LLC Page 7
  • 8. Form ADV Part 2A (“Firm Brochure”) for Pawol Capital LLC Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss Pawol Capital LLC provides clients with analysis, research, due diligence, account monitoring, and recommendations to our clients. Clients of the firm receive the benefit of Pawol Capital LLC quant and formulaic strategies, expansive research and proprietary analysis. Each clients with be evaluated to assess the what the correct objective and risk level he or she should enter. Clients who wish to take on more risk than recommended must sign an investment risk disclosure explaining that they understand the risks that they are taking. Methods of Analysis In designing investments for client's portfolios, Pawol Capital LLC relies solely on the information supplied by the clients and occasionally the clients' other professional advisors. This information include detailed financial condition, current investments, emergency funds, employment history, financial goals, age, lifetime plans, investment time horizon and perceived risk tolerance. We believe with this information we can place the client in investments which match their goals and objectives. Investment Strategies Our hedge funds use strategies that involve formulaic and algorithmic models. We use these sophisticated computer calculations to evaluate the market and individual securities. Upon evaluation, we can deduce what securities will fit which our client's objectives. Every security also goes through advanced technical analysis and fundamental analysis. Technical analysis is a way of comparing a securities current chart pattern to historical chart movements. Fundamental analysis is done by analyzing a company's financial condition and situation through their financial statements, industry information, and research reports. Types of Investments Each hedge fund or client portfolio will consist of a variety or securities based on their risk tolerance and investment goals. Any client portfolio may consist of securities on the follow page any any time. Depending on the current market we may shift from one type of security to another. Pawol Capital LLC Page 8
  • 9. Form ADV Part 2A (“Firm Brochure”) for Pawol Capital LLC Growth Stocks Stock of a company that has had faster than average gains in earnings and is expected to continue to. Growth stocks usually don't provide dividends. They carry the higher risk, but also may provide a higher return. Value Stocks Stock of a companies which is perceived to be undervalued. Generally, value stocks are of companies which are financially sound. Strategy-specific ETFs ETFs or exchanged traded funds are investment funds traded on public stock exchanges. They are invested in a number of stocks or other securities that fit into the fund's strategy. To fit certain strategies we may invest in ETFs which have a strategy that fits our fund's current objective. For example, we may invest in Low Volatility ETFs during a time when we are trying to remain invested in only conservative securities. Sector ETFs These are ETFs that invest in the stock of companies which are all from the same sector. For example one ETF might invest in only bank stocks while another would invest in only oil and gas companies. Leveraged ETFs These ETFs use leverage to give much higher return than regular ETFs. This type of ETF also comes with high risk. They are usually built as sector ETFs or cap specific ETFs where they only invest in stocks of the same market cap (ie small cap, mid cap, large cap). Publicly Traded Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) REITs are the stock of companies which invest in real estate, either through properties or mortgages. REITs receive special tax considerations by paying out 90% or more of their net income to shareholders and typically offer investors high yields, as well as a highly liquid method of investing in real estate. Pawol Capital LLC Page 9
  • 10. Form ADV Part 2A (“Firm Brochure”) for Pawol Capital LLC Risk of Loss Investing in securities involves a risk of loss that clients should bear in mind. Our investment recommendations attempt to limit risk exposure by using sophisticated valuation and technical models, but all investments carry risk of total loss no matter their 'implied' amount of risk. Pawol Capital LLC seeks to achieve a positive return for investors, but this can not be guaranteed, and investment objectives cannot be guaranteed to be met. Risk of Loss, Certain Higher-Risk Securities In the US marketplace, there are certain securities which possess a higher than average risk to investors. This includes, but is not limited to, small cap stocks, leveraged ETFs, small cap funds and developmental company stocks. Pawol Capital LLC may employ these type of securities in a clients portfolio to reach their investment goals and objectives. Pawol Capital LLC Page 10
  • 11. Form ADV Part 2A (“Firm Brochure”) for Pawol Capital LLC Types of Risk To educate clients, the following are risks that must considered. • Interest-Rate Risk: Fluctuations in interest rates may cause investment prices to fluctuate. For example, when interest rates rise, yields on existing bonds become less attractive, causing their market values to decline. • Market Risk: The price of a security, bond, or mutual fund may drop in reaction to tangible and intangible events and conditions. This type of risk is caused by external factors independent of a security's particular underlying circumstances. For example, political, economic, and social conditions may trigger market events. • Inflation Risk: When inflation is present, a dollar today will not buy as much as a dollar next year, because purchasing power is eroding at the rate of inflation. • Currency Risk: Overseas investments are subject to fluctuations in the value of the dollar against the currency of the investment's originating country. This is also referred to as exchange rate risk. Note to currency risk: Pawol Capital LLC attempts to limit investment in most US-listed foreign stock (ADRs) and foreign bonds in order to decrease currency risk. • Reinvestment Risk: This is the risk that future proceeds from investments may have to be reinvested a potentially lower rate of return (ie interest rate). This primarily relates to bonds and other fixed income securities. • Business Risk: These risks are associated with a particular industry or a particular company within an industry. For example, oil-drilling companies depend on finding oil and then refining it, a lengthy process, before they can generate a profit. They carry a higher risk of profitability than an electric company, which generates its income from a steady stream of customers who buy electricity no matter what the economic environment is like. • Liquidity Risk: Liquidity is the ability to readily convert an investment into cash. Generally, assets are more liquid if many traders are interested in a standardized product. For example, Treasury Bills are highly liquid, while real estate properties are not. • Financial Risk: Excessive borrowing to finance a business' operations increases the risk of probability of bankruptcy because the company must meet the terms of its obligations in good times and bad. During periods of financial stress, the inability to meet loan obligations may result in bankruptcy and/or a declining market value. • Small Capital Stock Risk: Small companies often have narrower markets and limited financial resources, so investments in these stocks present more risk than investments in those of larger, more established Co’s.
