Types of Investment Advisory Services Offered Harvey Capital Management provides discretionary investment management services where the investment advice is customized to meet the objectives of the Client. Discretionary authority allows the Firm to perform investment functions on the Client’s behalf without further approval from the Client. The Client must notify the Firm in writing if there are any investment restrictions in certain securities or industry groups/sectors. Portfolios are re-optimized when there are changes in market conditions or the client’s objectives.

Our Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions under which the Firm will manage the Client’s assets. It is our policy that the Client uses a qualified custodian to safeguard their assets. To avoid conflicts of interest, we do not have affiliations with any broker- dealer or investment banking divisions. The Client may terminate the Investment Management Agreement with prior written notice to Harvey Capital Management. The Agreement will be cancelled ten (10) business days after given notice. Harvey Capital Management will pro-rate the fees from the last billing cycle to the termination date. Harvey Capital Management does not participate in any Wrap Fee Program. As of December 31, 2024, Harvey Capital Management managed $523 million of clients’ assets on a discretionary basis. 5 Item 5: Fees and Compensation Investment Management Services Compensation Harvey Capital Management charges each account an investment management fee based upon the market value of the account at quarter end. The investment management fees are billed quarterly and in arrears. Fees are calculated pro-rata in the event the investment management agreement is executed at any time other than the first day of the quarter. By signing the investment management agreement, the Client authorizes the qualified custodian to pay advisory fees directly to Harvey Capital Management, unless prior arrangements are made in writing. The qualified custodian will facilitate the deduction of the investment management fee from your account. The Firm will only accept checks payable to Harvey Capital Management for payment of advisory fees. On an annualized basis, our fees for investment management services are as follows: Portfolio Size Annualized Fee First $2,000,000 1.00% Balances above $2,000,000 0.50% Minimum Annual Fee - $3,000 The Firm generally requires a minimum of $1 million to open and maintain an advisory account. However, this account minimum may be waived at the discretion of Harvey Capital Management. Other Fees In addition to our advisory fees, clients are responsible for the fees, expenses and transaction cost charged separately by custodians and broker-dealers. We do not directly or indirectly share or receive a portion of these fees. Item 6: Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management Harvey Capital Management does not charge fees based on performance or side-by-side management. 6 Item 7: Client Types Harvey Capital Management provides discretionary investment management services to high net-worth individuals.

Our firm customizes portfolios based on the specific investment objective of the Client whether it is growth, income or balanced. Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies & Risk of Loss Methods of Analysis We use the following methods of analysis in formulating our investment advice and managing client assets:  Fundamental: Fundamental analysis is a general assessment based upon various factors including stock valuation, earnings, balance sheet and cash flow analysis.  Charting and Technical: Charting consists of a technical analysis using graphs to illustrate various patterns or progressions in the market or account movement. The main source of research includes:  Bloomberg, MarketSmith by Investor’s Business Daily  Financial Newspapers/Magazines  Company Presentations  Annual Reports, Prospectuses and SEC Filings  Internet Our method of analysis relies on the assumption that the companies we purchase, and sell are providing accurate data. There is always a risk that our analysis may be 7 compromised by inaccurate or misleading information. To make ourselves available to a variety of investment opportunities, we keep our investment style flexible. Our focus is bottom-up and Harvey Capital Management does not limit our clients to any one investment style. Investment Strategies The investment strategies used to implement investment advice include both short-term and long-term views. To determine these views, we gather financial background information from the Client through personal interviews. We will review the following information with the Client:  Risk Tolerance  Investment Time Horizon  Tax Bracket  Current Financial Situation  Type of Account (i.e., taxable versus non-taxable)  Family Composition  Prior Investment History  Income/Liquidity Needs  Future Investment Goals and Expectations Once all these essentials are considered, the Client chooses an investment objective/strategy best suited for the account. The chart below shows the different investment objectives available: Allocation Ranges Investment Goal Investment Objective Equities Cash Fixed Income Growth Capital Appreciation 65% - 100% 0% - 35% 0% - 35% Income Preservation of Capital 0% - 35% 65% - 100% 0% - 35% Balanced Growth to Moderate Income 35% - 65% 35% - 65% 0% - 30% Growth portfolios typically consist of individual securities with initial equity positions of approximately 5% or less. Harvey Capital Management utilizes ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds) in certain circumstances for broad diversification. Covered calls may be employed for accounts set up with option capabilities. 8 Income portfolios consist of individual taxable, tax-exempt bonds and/or preferred stock, as well as ETFs. Based on the Client’s election, portfolios can be structured to include both investment and non-investment grade bonds.

We use the above investment objectives strategy(ies) as our guidelines in managing the Client’s portfolio. Investments are rebalanced when necessary. We require the Client to review their investment objective through our annual mailing. Risk of Loss Harvey Capital Management does not represent, warrant or imply that the services or methods of analysis employed by the Firm can or will predict future results, successfully identify market tops or bottoms, or insulate clients from losses due to market decline corrections. Securities investments are not guaranteed, and the Client may lose money on their investments. Item 9: Disciplinary Information Our firm, including the investment management team, does not have any legal or disciplinary events that are material to a client’s or prospective client’s evaluation of this advisory business or the integrity of our management. 9 Item 10: Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations Harvey Capital Management and its investment management team do not have any affiliation or related person in the following industries:  broker-dealer, municipal securities dealer, or government securities dealer or broker  investment company or other pooled investment vehicle (including a mutual fund, closed-end investment company, unit investment trust, private investment company or “hedge fund,” and offshore fund)  other investment adviser or financial planner  futures commission merchant, commodity pool operator, or commodity trading advisor  banking or thrift institution  accountant or accounting firm  lawyer or law firm  insurance company or agency  pension consultant  real estate broker or dealer  sponsor or syndicator of limited partnerships Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading Code of Ethics Harvey Capital Management has adopted a Code of Ethics which sets the standard for business conduct. The purpose of the Code is to preclude activities which may lead to or give the appearance of conflicts of interest, insider trading and other forms of prohibited or unethical business conduct. We require our employees to comply with federal securities laws. Employees have a fiduciary responsibility to its clients to conduct their affairs in such a manner as to avoid:  serving their own personal interests ahead of its clients  taking inappropriate advantage of their position of trust  conflicts of interest A copy of our Code of Ethics is available to our advisory clients and prospective clients upon written request. 10 Privacy At Harvey Capital Management, we realize that your relationship with us is built on trust. Maintaining and protecting your privacy is very important to us. We collect, use and share non-public information with non-affiliated third parties to service our clients. Non-public information is personal information that we obtain from the Client to provide a financial service. We will keep non-public personal information safeguarded in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Secured email is used when sending sensitive information to help keep confidential information from data breach or loss. As required by federal law, we will provide an initial Privacy Policy for new Clients.

Personal Trading All employees and their immediate family members of the Firm are subject to the Code of Ethics and the requirements of the Personal Security Trading Policy. Sanctions will be issued to any employee who conducts any applicable trade without following the Personal Security Trading Policy. Item 12: Brokerage Practices Brokerage Selection Factors Harvey Capital Management uses broker-dealers which charges brokerage commission and/or transaction fees for executing trades. Generally, clients grant us complete discretion of the broker-dealer to be used and the commission rates to be paid. The evaluation of the commission rates to be paid to the broker/dealer is based on several factors:  best execution  volume discounts/execution price negotiations  broker’s reputation, financial stability and experience  quality of service 11 These brokerage commissions and/or transaction fees charged by the designated broker-dealer may be higher or lower than those charged by other broker-dealers, in addition to, the investment management fee charged by Harvey Capital Management. The Client is responsible for reviewing the specific schedules of their chosen broker dealer. Harvey Capital Management may recommend clients to establish brokerage accounts with the Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC and National Financial Services LLC (collectively, and together with all affiliates, “Fidelity”), to maintain custody of clients' assets and to execute trades for their accounts. Although we recommend that clients establish accounts at Fidelity, it is the Client's decision to custody and trade with Fidelity. Fidelity provides Harvey Capital Management with an institutional platform service. The institutional platform services include brokerage, custody, and other related services. Fidelity's institutional platform services that assist Harvey Capital Management in managing and administering clients' accounts include software and technology that (i) provide access to client account data (such as trade confirmations and account statements); (ii) facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts; (iii) provide research, pricing and other market data; (iv) facilitate payment of fees from its clients' accounts; and (v) assist with back-office functions, recordkeeping and client reporting. In seeking best execution, the determinative factor is not the lowest possible cost, but whether the transaction represents the best qualitative execution. In making this assessment, we consider the full range of a custodian’s services, including the value of research provided, execution capability, commission rates, and responsiveness. While we always seek competitive rates, we may not necessarily obtain the lowest commission rates for our clients. Fidelity also offers other services intended to help Harvey Capital Management manage and further develop its advisory practice. These services may include, but are not limited to, performance reporting, financial planning, third-party research, publications, access to educational conferences, roundtables and webinars, practice management resources, access to consultants and other third-party services. Fidelity generally does not charge its advisor clients separately for custody services but is compensated by account holders through commissions and other transaction-related or asset-based fees for securities trades that are executed through Fidelity or that settle into Fidelity accounts (i.e., transactions fees are charged for certain no-load mutual funds, commissions are charged for individual equity and debt securities transactions). Fidelity provides access to many no-load mutual funds without transaction charges and other no-load funds at nominal transaction charges. 12 Harvey Capital Management is an independently owned investment adviser, and not affiliated with any broker-dealer. We do not have a soft dollar arrangement with Fidelity; therefore, our firm does not receive any portion of the brokerage commission. Research and Other Soft Dollar Practices Harvey Capital Management does not utilize soft dollar commission to pay for research, products or services. Directed Brokerage The Client may direct Harvey Capital Management to use a particular broker-dealer to execute trade transactions for the Client’s account. Such directions must be in writing and delivered to the Firm by the Client. The Client is responsible for negotiating the terms and arrangements for the account with that directed broker. The Client should understand that this arrangement will prevent Harvey Capital Management from aggregating trade orders, obtaining volume discounts, best execution and effectively negotiating brokerage compensation on their behalf. Clients should evaluate if the brokerage commission and fee expenses, execution, clearance and settlement capabilities through their directed brokerage are comparable to those of the firm’s selection of broker-dealers. Conditions for Aggregating Trades for Clients The aggregation or blocking of client transactions allows an adviser to execute transactions in a timely, equitable, and efficient manner. This allows all clients to receive an average price per share. As a matter of policy, an adviser's allocation procedures must be fair and equitable to all clients with no group or client(s) being favored over any other clients. Our firm’s policy is to aggregate client transactions where possible and when advantageous to clients. Item 13: Review of Accounts Harvey Capital Management has established an Investment Committee to formally review the Client’s account(s) on an annual basis. The Investment Committee may be composed of, but not limited to:  Robert Harvey, CFA, Chairman  Alexander Harvey, CFA, President & Chief Executive Officer  Sophia Burnichon, Executive Vice President 13 For more information about our advisory personnel of Harvey Capital Management, please refer to the Brochure Supplemental (Form ADV, Part 2B). The Portfolio Manager reviews the investment objectives for all clients on a quarterly basis. We require the Client to review their investment objective through our annual mailing. More frequent reviews may be triggered by material changes such as the Client's individual circumstances, large deposits/withdrawals, market fluctuation, political or economic climate. Our firm will offer a formal account review upon request from the Client. Each client is responsible to promptly notify Harvey Capital Management if there are any changes to their financial situation or investment objectives for the purpose of revising the Firm’s previous recommendations. Item 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation Harvey Capital Management does not engage solicitors or pay related or non-related persons for referring potential clients to our firm. It is our firm’s policy not to accept compensation, including cash or other items, excluding de minims amount from a non- client in conjunction with the advisory services we provide to our clients. Item 15: Custody Harvey Capital Management uses an unaffiliated qualified custodial firm to safeguard the Client’s assets. Our firm does not have actual or constructive custody of our client’s assets. Harvey Capital Management recommends that clients establish an account with Fidelity, to maintain custody of the assets. Although we recommend that the Client establishes an account at Fidelity, it is the Client's decision to custody assets with Fidelity. Harvey Capital Management is independently owned and operated and not affiliated with Fidelity. Fidelity generally does not charge for custody services. Other custodians may charge separately for custody services. The Client is responsible for reviewing the specific schedules of their chosen custodian. 14 The Client must provide written authorization to the qualified custodian permitting the fees to be paid directly to Harvey Capital Management. The Firm does not have access to client funds for payment of fees without written consent by the Client. By signing the investment management agreement, the Client authorizes the qualified custodian to pay advisory fees directly to Harvey Capital Management, unless prior arrangements are made in writing. The Firm will only accept checks payable to Harvey Capital Management for payment of advisory fees. Clients will receive monthly statements and annual tax statements from their qualified custodian. It is important for clients to carefully review their custodial statements to verify the accuracy of the information. Clients should contact us directly if there is an error in the statement. Item 16: Investment Discretion Harvey Capital Management provides both investment supervisory and advisory services. Both are tailored to the investment objectives of the Client. Currently, our business focus is on discretionary management. The Client grants us discretionary authority to manage the portfolio when an Investment Management Discretionary Agreement is signed by the Client. Discretionary authority allows the Firm to execute trades in a client’s account without contacting the Client prior to each trade to obtain their permission. Such discretion and authority allow the Firm to perform various investment functions without further approval from the Client. This may include:  determination of the securities to be purchased/sold  determination of the quantity/quantity/number of securities to be purchased/sold  selection of broker-dealer to be used  determination of the commission rates  qualified custodians facilitating the debiting of the account for the investment management fees The Client may limit this discretion and authority restriction, that is reasonable (i.e., buying/selling restriction on certain securities or industry group/sectors), by providing the Firm with written instruction. 15 Item 17: Voting Client Securities Harvey Capital Management does not accept authority for voting proxies on behalf of the Clients. This disclosure is stated in the Investment Management Agreement between Harvey Capital Management and the Client. Although our firm may provide investment advisory services relative to client investment assets, clients maintain exclusive responsibility for directing the voting of proxies. For ERISA accounts, Harvey Capital Management will review the Voting Proxies Policy on the Client’s Plan Investment Policy. We shall retain the authority to make all elections related to any mergers, acquisitions, tender offers, bankruptcy proceedings or other type events pertaining to the securities in the Account. We may provide clients with consulting assistance regarding corporate actions and the exercise of proxy voting rights if they contact us with questions. Item 18: Financial Information Harvey Capital Management has no additional financial circumstances to report. We do not include a financial statement because the Firm does not require or solicit pre- payment of fees for services rendered or take custody of client funds or securities. The Firm has no financial commitment that impairs its ability to meet its contractual and fiduciary commitments to clients and has not been the subject of a bankruptcy petition since inception.
