Estimated Annual Fee

Sanders Morris LLC offers a wrap fee program where fees are calculated based on the market value of securities held in the account. The total program fee compensates SM, the Representative, and Lockwood for their services. The portion of the fee payable to SM and the Representative is negotiable, but the Lockwood portion is not. The Lockwood platform fee ranges from 0.20% to 0.75% per year depending on the platform and total assets. Portfolio Manager fees are generally not included in the Total Program Fee for MAP, except for Elite LIS and Elite LAAP.
