Please note that the information contained in a BrokerCheck report may include pending actions or allegations that may be contested, unresolved or unproven. In the end, these actions or allegations may be resolved in favor of the broker or brokerage firm, or concluded through a negotiated settlement with no admission or finding of wrongdoing. Where did this information come from? The information contained in BrokerCheck comes from FINRA’s Central Registration Depository, or CRD® and is a combination of: o information FINRA and/or the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) require brokers and brokerage firms to submit as part of the registration and licensing process, and o information that regulators report regarding disciplinary actions or allegations against firms or brokers. How current is this information? Generally, active brokerage firms and brokers are required to update their professional and disciplinary information in CRD within 30 days. Under most circumstances, information reported by brokerage firms, brokers and regulators is available in BrokerCheck the next business day. What if I want to check the background of an investment adviser firm or investment adviser representative?

• 10. www.finra.org/brokercheck User Guidance Disclosure Events What you should know about reported disclosure events: 1. All individuals registered to sell securities or provide investment advice are required to disclose customer complaints and arbitrations, regulatory actions, employment terminations, bankruptcy filings, and criminal or civil judicial proceedings. 2. Certain thresholds must be met before an event is reported to CRD, for example: o A law enforcement agency must file formal charges before a broker is required to disclose a particular criminal event. o A customer dispute must involve allegations that a broker engaged in activity that violates certain rules or conduct governing the industry and that the activity resulted in damages of at least $5,000. 3. Disclosure events in BrokerCheck reports come from different sources: o As mentioned at the beginning of this report, information contained in BrokerCheck comes from brokers, brokerage firms and regulators. When more than one of these sources reports information for the same disclosure event, all versions of the event will appear in the BrokerCheck report. The different versions will be separated by a solid line with the reporting source labeled. 4. There are different statuses and dispositions for disclosure events: o A disclosure event may have a status of pending, on appeal, or final. § A “pending” event involves allegations that have not been proven or formally adjudicated. § An event that is “on appeal” involves allegations that have been adjudicated but are currently being appealed. § A “final” event has been concluded and its resolution is not subject to change. o A final event generally has a disposition of adjudicated, settled or otherwise resolved. § An “adjudicated” matter includes a disposition by (1) a court of law in a criminal or civil matter, or (2) an administrative panel in an action brought by a regulator that is contested by the party charged with some alleged wrongdoing. § A “settled” matter generally involves an agreement by the parties to resolve the matter. Please note that brokers and brokerage firms may choose to settle customer disputes or regulatory matters for business or other reasons. § A “resolved” matter usually involves no payment to the customer and no finding of wrongdoing on the part of the individual broker. Such matters generally involve customer disputes. For your convenience, below is a matrix of the number and status of disclosure events involving this broker.
