Phoenix focuses on providing sophisticated financial planning and wealth management services to the exceptional people who make up this community. From business executives and entrepreneurs to scientists and educators, we work with a broad range of clients and meet a wide variety of needs. Drawing on more than a century of financial education and industry experience, our team will work with you to define your financial goals, establish the degree of risk you are comfortable with and tailor a wealth strategy designed to achieve lasting well-being. Presently Phoenix focuses on providing services mainly to the following types of clients:  Individuals  Retirement plans  Trusts  Estates  Corporations

The Adviser typically offers the following investments:  Equity securities (exchange listed, over-the-counter, ETFs and foreign issuers)  Warrants  Corporate debt securities (other than commercial paper)  Commercial paper  Certificates of deposits  Municipal securities  Investment company securities (variable life insurance, variable annuities, and mutual fund shares)  U.S. government securities  Options contracts on securities  Alternative Investments

Advice is tailored to the individual client’s needs through interviews with clients, the collection of important information, and detailed financial planning, as applicable. Clients may be able to impose reasonable restrictions on their accounts. Reasonable restrictions may include the designation of particular securities or types of securities that should not be purchased in their account (i.e. Company XYZ or companies involved in a particular industry, etc.), or should be sold if held in their account. However, in some cases where investment discretion has been delegated to a third-party manager, that manager may determine that the implementation of such a restriction may be impractical. In the event that happens, the client will be notified promptly.

Financial Planning Services
Phoenix offers a range of financial planning advisory services to its clients. Such services may include a review of all aspects of an individual’s current financial situation, with emphasis on:  Income tax planning  Estate tax planning  Insurance planning  Investment planning  Retirement planning, and  Capital needs planning. To the extent other services are needed, the Adviser will assist the individual in those areas in which it is competent to give advice. The process generally begins with an introductory meeting with the Investment Advisory Representative (“IAR”) to discuss the scope of the plan and principal financial objectives of the client. At the client’s request and after a contract has been completed, the IAR would then receive from the client all necessary financial information.

Additional information may be requested before the presentation of the plan. During these initial meetings the IAR will extensively question the client to determine his/her risk background and past investment experience. The written financial plan will present the client’s financial strengths and weaknesses. General areas reviewed may include tax and cash flow planning, retirement planning, debt reduction strategies, educational funding requirements, estate analysis, and alternative investment patterns for either increased return or risk adjustment dependent on the client’s age, assets, and current earned income. Phoenix uses Goal Planning and Monitoring software to create its financial plans. In addition, the IAR may be asked to furnish analysis for closely held small business owners. The plan should enable the client to determine financial goals and objectives, both long- and short-term.

As a follow-up service, Phoenix Wealth Advisors, Inc. will, at the client’s request, assist the client in implementing the recommendations, including referral to other practicing professionals (such as attorneys and accountants) whose services may be required.

The client may utilize Phoenix Wealth Advisors for a single consultation or on a continuous basis at periodic intervals. The client is under no obligation to implement the plan through Phoenix. Either the client or Phoenix may terminate the engagement at any time with written notice. The plan is the basic instrument for Phoenix to know the client and serves as a guideline for offering investment supervisory services.

Retirement Plan Services Establishing a sound fiduciary governance process is vital to good decision-making and to ensuring that prudent procedural steps are followed in making investment decisions. PWA will provide Retirement Plan consulting services to Plans and Plan Fiduciaries as described below. The particular services provided will be detailed in the consulting agreement. The appropriate Plan Fiduciary(ies) designated in the Plan documents (e.g., the Plan sponsor or named fiduciary) will (i) make the decision to retain our firm; (ii) agree to the scope of the services that we will provide; and (iii) make the ultimate decision as to accepting any of the recommendations that we may provide. The Plan Fiduciaries are free to seek independent advice about the appropriateness of any recommended services for the Plan. Retirement Plan consulting services may be offered individually or as part of a comprehensive suite of services.

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) sets forth rules under which Plan Fiduciaries may retain investment advisers for various types of services with respect to Plan assets. For certain services, PWA will be considered a fiduciary under ERISA. For example, PWA will act as an ERISA § 3(21) fiduciary when providing non-discretionary investment advice to the Plan Fiduciaries by recommending a suite of investments as choices among which Plan Participants may select.

TYPES OF ADVISORY SERVICES Your Investment Adviser Representative (IAR) works with you to determine the appropriate investment objectives based on the information you provide initially, and periodically thereafter.
