Foxhall Capital Management, Inc. (“FCM”) has been in business since 1986 and is 100%
owned by Waterside Capital Corporation. As a registered investment adviser subject to
Section 206 of the Advisers Act, FCM acts as a Fiduciary related to the conduct of its
investment advisory services. As such FCM has an obligation to act in the best interest of
its clients guided by the core fiduciary duties of loyalty and care.
FCM offers a combination of advisory services, where appropriate, to individuals,
pension plans (including 401(k) plans), profit-sharing plans, trust, estates, charitable
organizations and corporations. These services are provided through management of
separately managed accounts and third-party management of variable annuity and
variable universal life accounts. FCM provides its portfolio management and asset
allocation services on a discretionary basis only. FCM may use related and unrelated
sub-advisors and third party managers when providing investment managements
services to clients.
Prior to engaging FCM to provide planning or consulting services, clients are required to
enter into an Investment Advisory Agreement with FCM. The Agreement sets forth the
terms and conditions of the engagement, including the manner of termination of the
Agreement. The Agreement also describes the scope of the services to be provided and
the portion of the fee that is due from the client before FCM commences its services.
Investment Advisory Services
The majority of FCM's business is dedicated to providing investment supervisory
services to separately managed accounts using model portfolios managed on a sub-
advisory basis by Fairfax Global Markets LLC (“Fairfax”), an adviser which is related to
FCM as detailed below in Item 10. Generally, clients are referred to FCM by independent
investment advisers and registered representatives of broker-dealers. Each portfolio is
designed to meet a particular investment goal which the client, together with such
client's soliciting representative, have determined suitable to the client's circumstances.
Generally, portfolios are comprised of third-party managed exchange-traded funds
("ETFs"), mutual funds, or stocks. Once the appropriate portfolio has been determined,
the portfolio will be continuously managed based on the portfolio's goal, rather than on
each client's individual needs. However, each client will have the opportunity to place
reasonable restrictions on the types of investments to be held in the portfolio.
In some cases, FCM directly provides investment advisory services to accounts, either due
to the accounts being opened directly with FCM or due to the discontinuance of a
relationship between FCM and the solicitor who referred the account. For such accounts,
FCM will ensure that the following conditions are met and maintained:
1) FCM will manage each client's account on the basis of the client's financial situation
and investment objectives and any reasonable investment restrictions the client
may impose;
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 4 of 15
2) FCM or the financial representative will be reasonably available to consult with the
client;
3) Each client is able to impose reasonable investment restrictions on the
management of the account;
4) Each client will receive a quarterly statement from their custodian with a
description of all account activity; and
5) Each client will retain certain indicia of ownership of the securities and funds in the
account, e.g., the ability to withdraw securities, vote securities, among others.
Variable Annuity and Variable Universal Life Accounts
FCM has relationships with certain financial advisers for whom it offers its services to the
financial advisers' clients. These services are limited to providing advice on how a client
should allocate investments in a variable annuity or variable universal life account, as the
case may be, among the limited array of investment options contained within various
sub- accounts, which offer a variety of trading strategies. In providing this type of advice,
FCM provides its recommended allocation of the client's investment assets at the time of
the client's initial investment based on a model strategy.
Rollover to IRA
As noted above, a soliciting representative may recommend to clients that they rollover
their retirement plan assets from a qualified employer-sponsored retirement plan
(“Employer Plan”) to an Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”). Clients considering this
should review and consider the advantages and disadvantages of an IRA rollover from
their Employer Plan. A plan participant leaving an employer typically has four options
(and may engage in a combination of these options):
(1) Leave the money in the former employer’s plan, if permitted;
(2) Rollover the assets to a new employer’s plan (if available and rollovers are
permitted);
(3) Rollover Employer Plan assets to an IRA; or,
(4) Cash out the Employer Plan assets and pay the required taxes on
the distribution.
At a minimum, Investors should consider fees and expenses, investment options,
services, penalty-free withdrawals, protection from creditors and legal judgments,
required minimum distributions, and employer stock. FCM encourages you to discuss
your options and review the above listed considerations with an accountant, third-party
administrator, investment advisor to your Employer Plan (if available), or legal counsel,
to the extent you consider necessary.
By recommending that clients rollover Employer Plan assets to an IRA, FCM and the
soliciting representative earns asset-based fees or other compensation as a result. In
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 5 of 15
contrast, leaving assets in an Employer Plan or rolling the assets to a plan sponsored by
a new employer likely results in little or no compensation to FCM or the soliciting
representative who have an economic incentive to encourage investors to rollover
Employer Plan assets into an IRA maintained at FCM. Clients may face increased fees
when they move retirement assets from an Employer Plan to a Rollover IRA account.
Even if there are no costs associated with the IRA rollover itself, there will be costs
associated with account administration, investment management, or both. In addition
to the fees charged by FCM, the underlying investment (mutual fund, ETF, annuity, or
other investment) may also charge a management fee. Custodial and trading fees may
also apply. Investing in an IRA with FCM will typically be more expensive than an
Employer Plan.
Additional resources about IRA Rollovers are available to investors through FINRA’s
web site a
t www.finra.org.
As of January 31, 2020, discretionary assets under management were $1,036,504. As
reported on FCM’s ADV Part 1 amendment, none of these assets are classified as
Regulatory Assets Under Management (“RAUM”) as all are managed on a sub-advisory
basis by Fairfax.

Client Agreements: FCM shall enter into a written client agreement with each client for
whom FCM acts as an investment adviser prior to rendering investment advisory
services. FCM will generally use its standard client agreements unless terms and
conditions of a particular engagement require use of a non-standard client agreement.
The client may only engage FCM to provide discretionary investment advisory services.
Clients generally elect to have FCM’s advisory fees deducted from their custodial account.
Both FCM’s investment advisory agreement and the custodial/clearing agreement may
authorize the custodian to debit the account for the amount of FCM’s advisory fee and to
directly remit that management fee to FCM. FCM may also bill the client directly if
stipulated in the investment management agreement. In the case of direct billing,
payment is due upon receipt of FCM’s invoice. FCM will deduct fees and/or bill clients
monthly or quarterly in advance. The fee for each period will be based upon the market
value of the clients’ assets on the last business day of that period.
From time to time, advisory clients have pre-existing investments that they do not want
actively managed by FCM. These clients may request that FCM incorporate these
holdings into a single account to facilitate future management and reporting. These
assets will not be actively managed by FCM. These unsupervised assets will not be
included in FCM's calculation of advisory fees or performance; however, once the client
instructs that these unsupervised assets be sold and re-invested by FCM they will be
reclassified as managed assets and fees will be charged in accordance with FCM's fee
schedule in effect at that time.
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 6 of 15
Negotiability of Advisory Fees and Account Requirements: In certain circumstances,
FCM's fees and account minimums are negotiable.
Fee Calculation: FCM charges a maximum investment management fee of 2.50% of
assets under management. The amount of fee charged by FCM is based on the amount of
assets placed under FCM’s direct management, the amount of assets placed under FCM’s
advisement, the complexity of the engagement, and the level and scope of the overall
investment services to be rendered. FCM’s annual investment advisory fee includes
investment advisory services, and, to the extent specifically requested by the client,
financial planning and consulting services. In the event that the client requires
extraordinary planning and/or consulting services and FCM determines in its sole
discretion to provide such services, FCM may impose a separate charge for such
additional services. The amount of any such charge will be set forth in a written notice to
the client.
FCM in its sole discretion may charge a reduced investment advisory fee and/or require
an annual minimum fee or asset level in some circumstances. For example, FCM may
charge reduced fees or require a reduced asset level in cases of anticipated changes in
earning capacity, the addition of substantial assets to a client’s account, substantial
increases in the dollar amount of assets of the client to be managed by FCM, the opening
by the client of additional accounts, certain changes in a client’s account composition and
individual negotiations with the client.
Termination of Advisory Relationship: A client agreement may be cancelled by written
notice at any time, by either party (including an unaffiliated financial adviser who is
authorized by the client to act on their instructions or on their behalf), for any reason.
Upon termination of any account, any prepaid, unearned fees will be refunded, and any
earned, unpaid fees will be due and payable.
Fees and Expenses by Third-Parties: All fees paid to FCM for investment advisory
services are separate and distinct from certain charges imposed directly by third-parties
such as custodians, mutual funds and ETFs. Such charges include, but are not limited to
custodial fees, charges imposed directly by a mutual fund or exchange traded fund in the
account, which shall be disclosed in the fund's prospectus (e.g., fund management fees
and other fund expenses), deferred sales charges, short-term redemption fees, odd-lot
differentials, transfer taxes, wire transfer and electronic fund fees, and other fees and
taxes on brokerage accounts and securities transactions. Additionally, clients may incur
brokerage commissions and transaction fees. Please see Item 12-Brokerage Practices for
more information.
Unless the client directs otherwise, or an individual client’s circumstances require, FCM
shall generally recommend that E*TRADE Advisor Services (E*TRADE) (formerly known
as TCA by E*TRADE) serve as the custodian for client investments management assets.
E*TRADE Advisor Services trades primarily through its affiliated broker-dealer
E*TRADE Securities LLC (E*TRADE). Broker-dealers such as E*TRADE charge brokerage
commissions and/or transaction fees for effecting certain securities transactions and
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 7 of 15
other fees for certain services. At this time, E-Trade does not charge commissions for
equity or fixed income transactions in brokerage accounts; however, clients may be
charged transaction fees for certain mutual fund purchases. Please see Item 12 –
Brokerage Practices for more information.
A client could invest in a mutual fund or purchase shares in an ETF directly, without the
services of FCM. In that case, the client would not receive the services provided by FCM
which are designed, among other things, to assist the client in determining which mutual
funds or ETFs are most appropriate to each such client's financial condition and
objectives.
Accordingly, the client should review both the fees charged by the funds and the fees
charged by FCM to fully understand the total amount of fees to be paid by the client and
to thereby evaluate the advisory services being provided.
Advisory Fees in General: Clients should note that similar advisory services may (or may
not) be available from other registered investment advisers for similar or lower fees.

FCM provides advisory services, where appropriate, to individuals, high net worth
individuals, pension plans (including 401(k) plans), profit-sharing plans, trust estates,
charitable organizations and corporations. FCM requires minimum investment assets
of $75,000; however, certain investment strategies require a higher minimum. FCM
may waive this minimum at its discretion.

FCM employs a global tactical asset allocation investment strategy. Primary asset classes
are global developed markets, emerging markets including Asia, global hard assets
(primarily commodities producers and physical commodities) and global fixed income.
Varying combinations of these asset classes are available to suit a range of investors
risk/return profiles. All investment strategies are based on investment in equity
and/or fixed income securities that can result in losses to investors.
FCM employs analytical processes designed to identify “persistent trends” in the various
asset classes listed above. FCM’s objective is to provide reasonable investment
participation when the trends are upward and avoid prolonged participation when the
trends are downward. This so called “trend following” involves the analysis of market
data. The analysis does not produce results that are 100% reliable. In cases where the
analysis produces results that are not correct, investors may suffer market losses or fail
to capture market gains.
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 8 of 15
FCM utilizes a three step investment process. Each step is based on the analysis of large
quantities of market data and accordingly, includes the risks associated with such
analysis producing results measured in terms of probability rather than certainty.
Step one is the identification of “persistent trends” in the various asset classes that FCM
utilizes in its investment strategies. The objective is to provide reasonable investment
participation when the trends are upward and avoid prolonged participation when the
trends are downward. This so called “trend following” involves the analysis of market
data. The analysis does not produce results that are 100% reliable.
Step two is a series of rules that define how each of FCM’s strategies gain the exposure
necessary to comply with their investment objectives. Rules governing items such as
diversification, asset mix and number of holdings are designed to help the strategies
meet their investment objectives but also contain inherent risks.
Step three is securities selection. The asset mix is determined by the analysis of historical
market data. Investors face the risk of unpredictability if the future performance patterns
are different than the historical patterns.
Number of holdings represents a ‘cost risk’ to investors. If FCM determines that one or
more of the strategies will be better served by an increase in the number of holdings,
investors will experience increased costs associated with the increased number of
transactions. FCM cannot assure investors that the presumed investment benefit will
outweigh the increased transactional costs.
Investors are subject to similar transactional risk if FCM’s investment process dictates
frequent trading. Every trade has a cost. That cost has a negative impact on the
performance of the investment strategy. FCM cannot assure investors that the presumed
benefit of the investment decision will outweigh the increased transactional costs.
Investing in securities involves risk of loss that clients should be prepared to bear. Investment Risk. As a general matter, investing in securities involves a risk of loss of
principal that investors should be prepared to bear. Different types of investments
involve varying degrees of risk, and it should not be assumed that future performance of
any specific investment or investment strategy (including the investments and/or
investment strategies recommended or undertaken by FCM) will be profitable or equal
any specific performance levels.
Every method of analysis has its own inherent risks. To perform an accurate market
analysis FCM must have access to current/new market information. FCM has no control
over the dissemination rate of market information; therefore, unbeknownst to FCM,
certain analyses may be compiled with outdated market information, severely limiting
the value of FCM’s analysis. Furthermore, an accurate market analysis can only produce
a forecast of the direction of market values. There can be no assurances that a forecasted
change in market values will materialize into actionable and/or profitable investment
opportunities.
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 9 of 15
Inverse/Enhanced Market Strategies. FCM may utilize long and short mutual funds
and/or ETFs that are designed to perform in either an: (1) inverse relationship to certain
market indices (at a rate of 1 or more times the inverse [opposite] result of the
corresponding index) as an investment strategy and/or for the purpose of hedging
against downside market risk; and (2) enhanced relationship to certain market indices
(at a rate of 1 or more times the actual result of the corresponding index) as an
investment strategy and/or for the purpose of increasing gains in an advancing market.
There can be no assurance that any such strategy will prove profitable or successful. In
light of these enhanced risks/rewards, a client may direct FCM, in writing, not to employ
any or all such strategies for his/her/their/its accounts.
Allocation Risks. Investment performance will depend largely on the Adviser’s
decisions as to strategic asset allocation and tactical adjustments made to the asset
allocation. At times, the Adviser’s judgments as to the asset classes in which Clients
should invest may prove to be wrong, as some asset classes may perform worse than
others or the equity markets generally from time to time or for extended periods of
time.
ETFs.
An investment in an ETF involves risk, including the loss of principal. ETF
shareholders are necessarily subject to the risks stemming from the individual issuers
of the fund’s underlying portfolio securities. Such shareholders are also liable for taxes
on any fund-level capital gains, as ETFs are required by law to distribute capital gains in
the event they sell securities for a profit that cannot be offset by a corresponding loss.
Shares of ETFs are listed on securities exchanges and transacted at negotiated prices in
the secondary market. Generally, ETF shares trade at or near their most recent NAV,
which is generally calculated at least once daily for indexed based ETFs and potentially
more frequently for actively managed ETFs. However, certain inefficiencies may cause
the shares to trade at a premium or discount to their pro rata NAV. There is also no
guarantee that an active secondary market for such shares will develop or continue to
exist. Generally, an ETF only redeems shares when aggregated as creation units (usually
20,000 shares or more). Therefore, if a liquid secondary market ceases to exist for
shares of a particular ETF, a shareholder may have no way to dispose of such shares.
Equity Securities.
The value of the equity securities held may increase or decrease due
to earnings of the company, general market and economic conditions, perceptions
regarding the industries in which the issuers of securities held participate or factors
relating to specific companies in which Advisory Partners invests. The value of a
company’s share price may decline as a result of poor decisions made by management,
lower demand for the company’s services or products or if the company’s revenues fall
short of expectations.
Large-Capitalization Company Securities.
Larger, more established companies may
be unable to attain the high growth rates of successful, smaller companies during
periods of economic expansion.

Registered investment advisers are required to disclose all material facts regarding any
legal or disciplinary events that would be material to your evaluation of FCM or the
integrity of FCM’s management. On April 19, 2013, relating to an administrative
proceeding (File No. 3-15293), Foxhall Capital Management and Paul Dietrich
(“Respondents”) submitted Offers of Settlement which the Securities and Exchange
Commission has accepted. Without admitting or denying the findings, Respondents
agreed to certain remedial sanctions. The commission found that between January 1,
2007 and September 3, 2009, Foxhall Capital Management, Inc. (“Foxhall”), a registered
investment adviser, failed to adopt and implement written compliance policies and
procedures reasonably designed to prevent violations of the Advisers Act and its rules,
as required by Section 206(4) of the Advisers Act and Rule 206(4)-7 thereunder. Foxhall
also failed to keep complete and accurate records as required by Section 204 of the
Advisers Act.
Foxhall's trade management system did not interface properly with its primary broker-
dealer and custodian's trading platform which caused Foxhall to not always have the
most up-to-date information about its client account balances. As a result certain trades
were allocated improperly. Foxhall failed to maintain adequate trading records and
failed to conduct a timely annual compliance review in 2007. The settlement included
the following remedial sanctions. Foxhall and Dietrich shall pay civil payments and
disgorgement in excess of $2,500. More information about this proceeding can be found
on ADV Part 1A and on the SEC website,

Personal Trading FCM, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 204A-1 of the Investment Advisers Act
of 1940 (the "Advisers Act"), has approved and adopted a Code of Ethics (the "Code").
The Code sets forth the general fiduciary principles and standards of business conduct to
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 11 of 15
which all of FCM’s employees and certain other persons are subject. The Code further
sets forth policies and procedures that are reasonably designed to prevent Access
Persons, from engaging in conduct prohibited by the Advisers Act and establishes
reporting requirements for these Access Persons. In general, Access Persons are defined
by the Code to include every FCM employee and others who, in connection with his or her
regular functions or duties or otherwise, makes, participates in or obtains information
regarding the purchase or sale of a security (other than certain "exempted" securities) for
any client, or has access to nonpublic information about the portfolio holdings of any
client, or whose functions relate to the making of any recommendations with respect to
purchases and sales, and officers of FCM or FCM's parent company.
The Code sets forth FCM's policy to act in the best interest of its clients and on the
principles of full disclosure, good faith and fair dealing. FCM and its employees must
seek to avoid situations which may result in potential or actual conflicts of interest with
these duties. In addition, the Code requires employees to (i) comply with applicable
federal securities laws at all times, (ii) avoid establishing financial interests or outside
affiliations which may create a conflict, or appear to create a conflict, between the
employee’s personal interests and the interests of FCM or its clients, (iii) conduct
themselves at all times in a manner consistent with the highest professional standards,
(iv) devote his or her attention and skills to the performance of his or her responsibilities
and avoid activities that interfere with that responsibility or that are detrimental to FCM
and its reputation.
FCM or representatives of FCM are permitted to buy or sell securities that are also
recommended to clients. This practice may create a situation where FCM and/or
representatives of the firm are in a position to materially benefit from the sale or purchase
of those securities. Therefore, this situation creates a potential conflict of interest.
FCM has a personal securities transaction policy in place to monitor the personal
securities transactions and securities holdings of each of FCM’s Access Persons. FCM’s
securities policy requires that each Access Person of FCM must provide the Chief
Compliance Officer or his designee with a written report of their current securities
holdings within ten (10) days after becoming an Access Person. Additionally, each Access
Person must provide the Chief Compliance Officer or his designee with a written report
of the Access Person’s current securities holdings at least once each twelve (12) month
period thereafter on a date FCM selects. Access Persons are also required to submit
periodic reports regarding their personal securities transactions and holdings and to
have duplicate statements and trade confirmations sent to FCM for all brokerage
accounts in which they have a beneficial ownership interest. Provided, however that at
any time that FCM has only one Access Person, he or she shall not be required to submit
any securities report as described above.
FCM will provide a copy of the Code to any client or prospective client, upon request.
Please contact FCM at 800-416-2053 for a copy of the Code.

It is FCM's policy to not enter into any soft dollar agreements with broker-dealers. FCM
does not currently have any soft dollar arrangements with any broker-dealers and will
not enter into any such arrangements in the future, unless it changes its policies
regarding the use of soft-dollar arrangements.
Prior to engaging FCM to provide investment management services, the clients have
been required to enter into an Investment Advisory Agreement with FCM setting forth
the terms and conditions under which FCM shall manage the client’s assets, and a
separate custodial clearing agreement with each designated broker-dealer custodian.
In the event the client requests that FCM recommend a broker-dealer/custodian for
execution and/or custodial services (exclusive of those clients that may direct FCM to
use a specific broker-dealer/custodian), FCM generally recommends that the investment
management accounts be maintained at E*TRADE Advisor Services, which trades
through its affiliate E*TRADE Securities LLC (E*TRADE).
Factors that FCM considers in recommending E*TRADE (or any other broker-
dealer/custodian) to clients include financial strength, reputation, execution capabilities,
pricing, research and service. Although the commissions and/or transaction fees paid by
FCM’s clients shall comply with FCM’s duty to obtain best execution, a client may pay a
commission that is higher than another qualified broker-dealer might charge to effect
the same transaction. FCM has determined in good faith that the
commission/transaction fee is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and
research services received. In seeking best execution, the determinative factor is not the
lowest possible cost, but whether the transaction represents the best qualitative
execution, taking into consideration the full range of broker-dealer services, including
the value of research provided, execution capability, commission rates and
responsiveness. Accordingly, although FCM will seek competitive rates, it may not
necessarily obtain the lowest possible commission rates for client transactions. The
brokerage commissions or transaction fees charged by the designated broker-
dealer/custodian are exclusive of, and in addition to, FCM’s investment management fee.
FCM’s best execution responsibility is qualified if securities that it purchases for client
accounts are mutual funds that trade at net asset value as determined at the daily
market close.
If a client directs FCM to use a specific broker, FCM has not negotiated the terms and
conditions (including, among others, commission rates) relating to the services provided
by such broker. FCM is not responsible for obtaining from any such broker the best
prices or particular commission rates. A client that directs FCM to use a specific broker
may not be able to participate in aggregate securities transactions and may trade after
such aggregate transactions and receive less favorable pricing and execution. The client
may pay higher commissions and mark-ups than it would pay if FCM had discretion to
select broker-dealers other than those that the client chooses.
FCM endeavors at all times to put the interests of its clients first. Clients should be
aware, however, that the receipt of benefits described above by FCM in and of itself
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 13 of 15
creates a conflict of interest and may influence FCM’s choices for investments, custody
and brokerage services.
Trade Aggregation/Allocation
Whenever feasible, FCM will combine the orders of two or more clients to purchase or
sell the same security. Orders of two or more clients will only be aggregated if FCM
determines, on an individual client basis that the securities order is (i) in the best
interests of each client participating in the order, (ii) consistent with FCM's duty to obtain
best execution, and (iii) consistent with the terms of the investment advisory agreement
of each participating client. All clients included in an aggregated order will be treated
equitably, including in the event that such aggregated order is not completely filled. The
terms negotiated for the aggregated order will apply equally to each participating
account. If an employee trade or trade by an affiliated account is aggregated with a client
trade, such client trade will be treated equally with the employee and/or affiliated
account trade, each affiliated and non-affiliated participant in the trade will receive
average execution and average commissions; and the securities purchased or sold will be
allocated pro rata among all participating accounts. For example, Client X is a buyer of
200 shares and Client Y is a buyer of 100 shares and the investment adviser is only able
to acquire 150 shares. Client X receives 100 shares and Client Y receives 50 shares.
Exceptions to Pro Rata Allocation
Partial Fills
If FCM is not able to completely fill an aggregated order for a security, the
completed orders are generally allocated pro rata based on the order size set forth
on the pre- allocation.
Random Allocations
In cases where client accounts would receive less than the desirable number of
shares as judged by FCM, the aggregated trade may be allocated by FCM to
client accounts on a random basis. FCM shall use a computer software program
or other fair system to allocate such trades on a random basis. Client accounts
that receive random allocations generally will not be eligible for the next
random allocation.
Allocation Adjustments
In cases where FCM is unable to allocate security orders as intended within the
pre- allocation evidenced on the Trade Ticket due to unforeseeable events,
including, but not limited to account closings, client withdrawals, quickly moving
market conditions which would cause intended allocations to cause accounts to
become overdrawn, FCM may make adjustments to its pre-allocation as follows:
• Newly funded accounts or those with recent contributions may receive
an additional allocation;
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 14 of 15
• Accounts in need of rebalancing;
• Any adjustments to pre-allocations on an account by account basis,
provided that security-level percentages remain within the tolerance
levels set out from time-to-time by the Investment Committee;
• In selling situations, late day withdrawal and liquidation requests.
In all instances of allocation adjustments, the reasons therefore will be documented.

For those clients to whom FCM provides investment supervisory services, account
reviews are conducted on an ongoing basis by FCM’s Chief Investment Officer. All
investment supervisory clients are advised that it remains their responsibility to advise
FCM of any changes in their investment objectives and/or financial situation. All clients
(in person or via telephone) are encouraged to review financial planning issues (to the
extent applicable), investment objectives and account performance with FCM on an
annual basis.
FCM may conduct account reviews on an other than periodic basis upon the occurrence of
a triggering event, such as a change in client investment objectives and/or financial
situation, market corrections and client request.
Clients are provided, at least quarterly, with written transaction confirmation notices
and account statements directly from the Qualified Custodian for each client’s accounts.
FCM may also provide a written periodic report summarizing account activity and
performance.

If a client is introduced to FCM by a solicitor, FCM will generally pay that solicitor a
referral fee in accordance with the requirements of Rule 206(4)-3 of the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940, and any corresponding state securities law requirements. Any such
referral fee shall be paid solely from FCM’s investment advisory fee, and shall not result
in any additional charge to the client. The solicitor, at the time of the solicitation, shall
disclose the nature of his/her/its solicitor relationship, and shall provide each
prospective client with a copy of FCM’s Brochure and a copy of the written disclosure
statement from the solicitor to the client disclosing the terms of the solicitation
arrangement between FCM and the solicitor, including the compensation to be received
by the solicitor.

FCM has the ability to have its investment advisory fee debited by the custodian directly
from client accounts. Clients are provided, at least quarterly, with written transaction
confirmation notices and account statements directly from the Qualified Custodian for
each client’s accounts. Clients should carefully review these statements.
Foxhall Capital Management, Inc., ADV Part 2 Page 15 of 15
Clients who have their investment advisory fees directly debited from their custodian
accounts are urged to compare any written statement provided by FCM with the account
statements received from the account custodian to ensure that the proper investment
advisory fee has been deducted from their custodial account. The account custodian does
not verify the accuracy of the investment advisory fee calculation so it is important that
the client review amounts deducted from accounts maintained at the account custodian.

Clients can engage FCM to provide investment advisory services on a discretionary basis.
Prior to FCM assuming discretionary authority over a client’s account, the client shall be
required to execute the investment advisory agreement, naming FCM as client’s attorney
and agent in fact, granting FCM full authority to buy, sell or otherwise effect investment
transactions involving the assets in the client’s name or found in the discretionary
account.
Clients who engage FCM on a discretionary basis may, at any time, impose restrictions,
in writing, on FCM’s discretionary authority (e.g., limit the types/amounts of particular

FCM does not vote client proxies. The obligation to vote proxies and class actions shall at
all times rest with you. FCM shall not be deemed to have voting authority solely as a
result of providing investment management services to you. You will receive your
proxies or other solicitations directly from your custodian or transfer agent. Should FCM
inadvertently receive proxy or class action information for a security held in your
account, FCM will make a best efforts attempt to forward such information on to you,
but will not take any further action with respect to the voting of such proxy or class
action. Upon termination of your Agreement with us, we will continue to make a good
faith and reasonable attempt to forward to you any proxy or class action information we
may inadvertently receive. The issuing company is generally the best source for any
questions you may have about voting proxies, but you may always contact us with any
questions and we will make a good faith effort to get you in contact with the appropriate
resources.
