All accounts are subject to a minimum administrative fee of $1,000 per year. This fee is not in addition to normal administrative fees, but simply provides a "base".
PERFORMANCE FEE
Accounts are also subject to a performance fee of 10% of net profits charged annually. Appreciation is determined by taking into account income earned on the managed assets after all fees have been incurred, and includes all realized and unrealized capital gains and losses for the period. The performance fee is assessed on the anniversary of the opening of the account, and is charged only from "high-water mark" to "high-water mark" (that is, we do not receive a performance fee twice for the same performance). This fee is assessed only when the account performance exceeds the 52-week average return on the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Term Treasury Index for the preceding year. This index is calculated and published by Lehman Brothers, and published by various services, including The Wall Street Journal. A.D.A.M. believes this is an appropriate index to use for comparison of investment returns since the index represents the return available on a low-risk investment. By taking risk in varying degrees appropriate for each client, A.D.A.M. aims to outperform this low-risk return. If it does not, it receives no
performance compensation.
CLOSING FEE
Accounts are subject to a 1% closing fee, if closed after 5 days but within one year of opening, provided the account has not lost money from the date of the opening.
These fees are in effect as of 6/98 and may be changed at 90 days written notice.
The above administration fees are valid for all accounts opened with Adrian Day Asset Management directly, and only where no special restrictions in respect to asset domicile or investment qualifications exist. Where the client opens an account with an institution other than Adrian Day Asset Management with the mandate that Adrian Day Asset Management manage his assets, different fees may apply. Similarly, our fees may be higher if the client requests that his assets be held outside of our normal custodial arrangements or if the client wishes specific investment restrictions observed. All fees are subject to applicable state laws and regulations.
