ITEM 4: Advisory Business
Incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia in 1986, Toth Financial provides customized
investment management services on a discretionary basis to various categories of institutional and
individual clients. Toth Financial is owned by Thomas A. Toth, Sr., Kenneth J. Bowen, II, Thomas
A. Bowman, Jr., and Kevin W. Arbogast. As of December 31, 2024, Toth Financial managed
approximately $1,016,000,000 on a discretionary basis on behalf of 633 clients.
Client assets are generally invested in the common stock of large cap, US based companies that
have grown their earnings and revenues over various business and economic cycles. This allows
Toth Financial to take a “buy and hold” approach that minimizes portfolio turnover.
Account supervision is guided by the stated objectives of the client (i.e., growth, growth &
income, etc.), and all managed accounts will be maintained with an independent custodian.
Clients can impose reasonable restrictions on our management of their accounts.
During the first meeting with a potential client, the following subjects will be covered:
• An overview of the Firm's services and capabilities as a portfolio manager.
• A determination of the investor’s investment objectives, investment time horizon and
risk profile by means of an interview and the completion of a questionnaire.
• An explanation of the advisory contract and current fees.
• An explanation and copy of SEC Form ADV, Part 2A and 2B and Form CRS, and the
Toth Financial Privacy Disclosure Notice.
Toth Financial serves as the General Partner to a private pooled investment vehicle, the Toth
Growth & Income Fund, LP (Fund) established to engage in the purchase and sale of securities
issued primarily by companies in the United States, but also by foreign companies. Investment
advice is provided directly to the Fund and not individually to the investors in the Fund. Nothing
herein constitutes or shall be deemed to constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to
purchase Fund interests. Such an offer may be made only by means of the private placement
memorandum (or other similar documentation) and only to the person to whom such
memorandum is actually delivered.

The value of margined securities is included in the calculation of AUM.
Donor Advised Funds (DAF) may be included in the AUM and charged a management fee
according to the AUM fee schedule detailed above.
Portfolio Management Using Individual Stocks with Quarterly Reporting
Management of portfolios with quarterly reporting will be charged 25% more than clients who
elect Annual Reporting. The same asset under management thresholds as shown under Annual
Reporting will apply.
Each calendar quarter, the client will receive a detailed report providing portfolio analysis of the
holdings including performance data. This service is provided automatically unless the client
requests that the report be sent less frequently.
529 Plans and Employer Sponsored Retirement Plans
529 Plans, Limited Partnerships and Fixed Annuities will be charged at the annual rate of 0.10%.
Stand-alone 529 plans (without an individual stock or mutual fund portfolio) will be charged a
management fee of 1.00% per year.
Employer Sponsored Qualified Plans – Actively Managed, will incur the tiered Toth Financial
fee rate schedule as outlined above.
4
Employer Sponsored Qualified Plans – Passively Managed, will incur an annual fee between
0.25% and 0.75% annually, based on service level agreement. Toth Financial discretion is
authorized.
Clients who desire that Toth Financial make recommendations for their 401K accounts, held by
their employers and not directly affiliated with Toth Financial, will be charged an annual rate of
0.15% (subject to a $250 fee minimum per account).
Although Toth Financial has established flat and tiered advisory fee schedule(s), we retain the
discretion to determine the appropriate advisory fee on a client-by-client or account-by-account
basis. Certain accounts have been grandfathered with previously established fee schedules.
Discounted fees are offered to certain family members and friends of persons associated with our
firm.
Advisory clients are subject to Toth Financial’s minimum account requirements and advisory fees
in effect at the time the client entered the advisory relationship. Therefore, our minimum account
requirements and fees differ among clients.
The total assets under management will be determined when the first Portfolio Management
Contract is signed and will be updated once each year. The management fee will be prorated for
the remaining days of the initial quarter in which Toth Financial begins to manage the account.
Thereafter, the fee will be split into four calendar quarters and is due the first day of January,
April, July, and October.
During the year, if money is added to the client’s account(s) in excess of 1/10th of the total
portfolio, Toth Financial has the discretion to adjust the client’s management fee for these
additional funds. The same rate schedule for the management of the funds as the initial investment
will apply.
If the client desires to terminate the Portfolio Management Contract, he/she may do so at any
time. Termination requests must be in writing and delivered to the Toth Financial offices located
at 608 South King Street, Suite 300, Leesburg, Virginia 20175 or emailed to the portfolio manager
with a request for the manager’s acknowledgment of receipt. Toth Financial may, at its discretion,
terminate management of the client's portfolio at any time. A letter will be sent to the client via
certified mail notifying him/her that the firm's management services have been terminated. Upon
termination, any prepaid managements fees will be prorated for the remainder of the quarter and
refunded to the Client.
Other Fees
Advisory fees charged by Toth Financial are separate and distinct from fees and expenses charged
by mutual funds, which may be recommended to clients. A description of these fees and expenses
is available in each fund's prospectus. Additionally, the fees charged by Toth Financial are
exclusive of all custodial and transaction costs paid to custodians, brokers or any other third
parties. Clients should review all fees charged by Toth Financial, custodians and brokers, and
others (including but not limited to third-party sub advisers) to fully understand the total amount
of fees incurred.
5
Portfolio Management Services to the Toth Growth & Income Fund (for clients of the Fund
only)
Compensation received by the General Partner is generally comprised of fees based on a
percentage of assets under management and a profit allocation.
Investment Management Fee
The Fund pays a quarterly management fee to the General Partner of 0.15% of the aggregate of
each limited partner’s ending capital account balance for each quarter (0.6% per annum), payable
on the last day of such quarter. The management fee will be prorated for any period that is less
than a full quarter and will be adjusted for contributions made during the quarter.
Profit Allocation
The General Partner is entitled to receive a profit allocation on the twelve-month anniversary of
the initial capital contribution of each limited partner, and then on the last business day of each
calendar month thereafter, with respect to any profits allocable to each limited partner’s capital
account for such month (or for the first twelve months with respect to the first Profit Allocation).
The Profit Allocation is equal to 20% of the net realized and unrealized profits otherwise allocable
to a limited partner’s capital account, subject to a “high- water” mark and a preferred annual
return of 9.2%. The General Partner, in its sole discretion, may waive or modify the profit
allocation with respect to any limited partner.
In addition to the General Partner’s fees, limited partners bear indirectly the fees and expenses
charged to the Fund. Those fees vary, but typically include but are not limited to: legal,
accounting, auditing and tax preparation expenses and fees, expenses related to investment
activities (including the purchase, sale or registration of securities whether or not purchased, sold
or registered, interest on borrowed funds, taxes, commissions, brokerage fees, and travel
expenses) and reports to the limited partners, the cost of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance,
and extraordinary expenses such as litigation and “broken deal” expenses. Limited partners
should consider all fees charged by the General Partner, custodians, brokers, and other third
parties to fully understand the total amount of fees to be paid by the Fund.
ITEM 6: Performance Based Fees and Side-by-Side Management (for clients of
the Fund only)
As stated in the Fees and Compensation section above, Toth Financial charges performance-based
fees which are fees based on a share of capital gains on or capital appreciation of the client’s
assets in the Fund.
6
The fact that Toth Financial is compensated based on the trading profits may create an incentive
for Toth Financial to make investments on behalf of clients that are riskier or more speculative
than would be the case in the absence of such compensation. In addition, the performance-based
fee received by Toth Financial is based primarily on realized and unrealized gains and losses. As
a result, the performance-based fee earned could be based on unrealized gains that clients may
never realize. Toth Financial’s fee arrangements also create an incentive to favor higher fee-
paying accounts over other accounts in the allocation of investment opportunities.
Toth Financial has procedures designed and implemented to ensure that all clients are treated
fairly and equally, and to prevent this conflict from influencing the allocation of investment
opportunities among clients.
ITEM 7: Types of Clients
Toth Financial primarily provides customized investment management services to high-net-worth
individuals and associated trusts, estates, pension and profit-sharing plans, and other legal entities
and to a Fund.
Generally, the minimum dollar value of assets required to setup an investment advisory account is
$1,000,000. However, Toth Financial retains the discretion to waive the account minimum.
Clients and investors in the Fund must meet the qualified client requirements of Rule 205-3 under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Toth Financial generally requires a minimum of $1,100,000
for investors in the Fund. Limited Partners are generally required to have a net worth (together,
in the case of a client that is a natural person, with assets held jointly with a spouse) of at least $2.2
million or invest at least $1,100,000 in the Fund and who meet certain additional eligibility criteria
set forth in the Fund’s subscription documents and as determined by the General Partner in its
discretion.
ITEM 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
Toth Financial primarily uses a fundamental analysis for stocks which places particular emphasis on
earnings per share, sales per share, years uninterrupted and/or increased earnings, net profit, debt-
equity ratio, return on common equity, revenue sources, dividends, stock buybacks, outlook, and
other relevant factors. For mutual funds and Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), Toth Financial
considers the stated objective of the fund (per its prospectus) and how it compares to the client's
objectives, the fund's track record, and whether or not the same management is still in place or if
qualified replacement managers have been hired. For limited partnerships, Toth Financial considers
the proposed length of the partnership, the general partner's track record in previous partnerships,
the investment potential with and without potential tax advantages, the timing of cash flow, the
discounted present value of that cash flow, as well as the diversification of the partnership holdings.
Toth Financial’s portfolio strategy focuses on the selection of investments that it believes are most
appropriate to the various phases of the U.S. economy and a client’s risk tolerance. During the
7
early stage of coming out of recession, Toth Financial believes that small-to-mid-size growth
stocks tend to be the best performing class of investments. As the economy continues to grow,
larger, more established companies and high-yield bonds perform well. When the economy begins
to slow down, dividend paying stocks and high-quality bonds may provide the best relative return.
The Fund’s investment strategy is to identify and acquire the common stock and similar securities
of a select, diversified group of companies that have a proven track record of growing their sales
and earnings as well as a history of increasing their dividends. The ratio of debt securities to stocks
is guided by the view that, generally, common stocks and high-yield bonds provide superior
performance in a growing economy, while high-quality bonds tend to be the better performing
assets when the economy is anticipated to move sideways or slip into a recession.
Toth Financial, as General Partner to the Fund, will assess the overall health of the U.S. economy
in order to determine the best mix of investments consistent with the Fund’s investment
philosophy. When Toth Financial believes that the U.S. economy is growing, the Fund will invest
predominantly in stocks and other equity securities. The Fund’s investment mix at any particular
time will generally reflect the Toth Financial’s assessment of the relative strength or weakness of
the U.S. economy.
The management style offered by Toth Financial may be deemed speculative and is not intended
as a complete investment program. It is designed for sophisticated investors who fully understand
and are capable of bearing the risk of such an investment. No guarantee or representation is made
that clients will achieve their investment objective.
All investing involves a risk of loss and the investment strategy offered by Toth Financial could
lose money over short or even long periods. The description contained below is a brief overview
of different market risks related to Toth Financial’s investment strategy:
General Business and Management Risk - Investments in securities subject the client to the
general risks associated with the underlying businesses, including market conditions, changes in
regulatory requirements, reliance on management at the company level, interest rate and currency
fluctuations, general economic downturns, domestic and foreign political situations, and other
factors. With respect to management at the company level, many companies rely on the services
of a limited number of key individuals, the loss of any one of whom could significantly adversely
affect the company's performance.
Long-Term Holding Risk - Due to its nature, the long-term investment strategy can expose
clients to various types of risks that typically surface at multiple intervals when they own the
investments. These risks include but are not limited to inflation (purchasing power) risk, interest-
rate risk, economic risk, market risk, and political/regulatory risk.
8
Use of Leverage or Margin - The use of margin, the act of borrowing capital to make
investments, or leveraged investment products, exposes the client to additional levels of risks,
including (i) greater losses from investments than otherwise would have been the case, (ii) margin
calls that could force the client to liquidate investment positions, and (iii) losses on investments
where the investment fails to earn a return that equals or exceeds the cost of initially borrowing
the capital. Should there be a sharp decline in the value of investments held by the client, Toth
Financial may not be able to liquidate the investments quickly enough, further increasing losses.
Client accounts are opened allowing for the use of margin unless instructed otherwise by the
client. Additionally, clients may authorize the use of leveraged products in their accounts to
achieve investment goals.
Toth Financial utilizes Leveraged Exchange Traded Funds (LETFs) as part of a long-term
investment strategy rather than a daily investment objective, as outlined in the fund’s prospectus.
This long-term objective is counter to the daily investment objectives of the fund and the effects
of volatility and compounding could cause the products’ returns to diverge materially from the
stated multiples of returns of their respective indices when held longer than a single trading day.
Additionally, the inherent risks associated with LETFs could be amplified with long-term
holdings and trigger steep losses in short periods of time as well as lose most or all of their value.
LETFs are not suitable for all investors and the funds are designed to be utilized by
knowledgeable investors who understand the potential consequences of seeking leveraged results.
When considering the use of LETFs, and annually thereafter, Toth Financial will distribute a
separate Leverage Investment disclosure statement to ensure the client is informed and aware of
the risk associated with the employment of such strategy.
Short Sales - Short selling, or the sale of securities not owned by the client, involves certain
additional risks. Such transactions expose the client to the risk of loss in an amount greater than
the initial investment, and such losses can increase rapidly and without effective limit. There is
the risk that the securities borrowed by the client would need to be returned to the lender on short
notice. Such a request could require Toth Financial to purchase the securities in the open market
at prices that are significantly higher than the proceeds from the initial sale of the securities.
Options - The purchase or sale of an option involves the payment or receipt of a premium by the
client and the corresponding right or obligation, as the case may be, to either buy or sell the
underlying security, commodity, or other instrument for a pre-determined price at or before a pre-
determined time. Buying options involves the risk that the price of the underlying security will
not change in the manner expected, so the client loses its premium. Selling options involves a
greater risk because the client is exposed to the actual price movement of the underlying security.
Non-U.S. Securities – Toth Financial may invest and trade a portion of the client’s assets in non-
U.S. securities and other assets which will give rise to risks relating to political, social, and
economic developments abroad, as well as currency fluctuation and risks resulting from the
differences between the regulations to which U.S. and non- U.S. issuers and markets are subject.
9
Sub-Investment Advisory Services – Watkinson Capital Advisors, LLC (WCA)
Toth Financial may engage WCA as a sub-advisor on municipal bond accounts for some Toth
Financial clients upon client approval. Clients do not pay an additional fee for sub-investment
services performed by WCA.
ITEM 9: Disciplinary Information
None within the last 10 years.
ITEM 10: Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Thomas A. Toth, Sr. is the Managing Member of TFAC Leasing, LLC and Loudoun Properties
Office Condominium Unit Owners Association, Inc., formed to purchase commercial property
in Leesburg, Virginia and has developed two commercial buildings, one of which is the location
of the main offices for Toth Financial. Time spent is approximately 3 hours per month, none
during securities trading hours.
Thomas A. Toth, Sr. is President of Toth and Associates, Inc. a subsidiary company offering
insurance products to clients. Thomas A. Toth Sr., Thomas A. Bowman, Jr., and Brawn C. Sproul
are licensed insurance agents for several insurance companies. These activities are paid on a
commission basis and involve less than 5% of their total working hours. As a result of the
commissions received, a potential conflict of interest may exist with advisory clients' interests.
Clients are under no obligation, contractual or otherwise, to engage Thomas A. Toth, Sr., Thomas
A. Bowman, Jr., or Brawn C. Sproul as insurance agents.
Toth Financial is the General Partner of the Fund, which is a private investment partnership.
Additional information concerning the Fund is contained in a Private Placement Memorandum
dated February 1, 2005 (the initial offering) and the most recent update is November 2017.
ITEM 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions, and
Personal Trading
It is possible that Toth Financial may have a position in securities recommended to clients. Toth
Financial will state ownership of recommended securities if asked by the client. However, Toth
Financial will not mention ownership as a means of influencing clients to invest in or sell such
securities.
10
Toth Financial has adopted a Code of Ethics (Code) to establish policies addressing its fiduciary
duties to our clients. The Code prohibits fraudulent or manipulative practices in connection with
client investments. The Code establishes policies regarding personal trading by its employees.
Toth Financial also has implemented procedures designed to ensure compliance with the
provisions of the Code, including having employees file quarterly transaction reports and annual
securities holdings reports.
Our portfolio and assistant portfolio managers will not purchase or sell securities for their own
account if the transaction will disadvantage clients in any way. We maintain transaction records
for all employee securities transactions. We also prohibit insider trading and comply with
applicable provisions of state and federal law. Toth Financial will provide a copy of our Code of
Ethics upon request.
ITEM 12: Brokerage Practices
While providing our services, we will execute trades for our clients through various broker-
dealers. Generally, most trades will be placed with the broker-dealer that has custody over the
client assets. However, when a client has given Toth Financial broker discretion, there is no
restriction on the brokers we may select to execute client transactions. Our general guiding
principle is to trade through broker-dealers who offer the best overall execution under particular
circumstances. With respect to execution, we consider a number of qualitative factors, including
the actual handling of the order, the ability of the broker-dealer to settle the trade promptly and
accurately, the financial standing of the broker-dealer, the ability of the broker-dealer to position
stock to facilitate execution, our past experience with similar trades, and other factors which may
be unique to a particular order. Based on these judgmental factors, we may trade through broker-
dealers that charge fees that are higher than the lowest available fees.
In addition, broker-dealer fees may vary and be greater than those typical for similar investments
if we determine that the research, execution, and other services rendered by a particular broker
merit greater than typical fees. Also, in certain instances we may execute over-the-counter
securities transactions on an agency basis, which may result in advisory clients incurring two
transaction costs for a single trade: a commission paid to the executing broker-dealer plus the
market makers mark-up or mark-down.
Trade Aggregation
Transactions for each client account generally will be effected independently, unless Toth
Financial decides to purchase or sell the same securities for a number of client accounts
simultaneously. When possible, orders for the same security may be combined, or batched, to
facilitate best execution. Accounts in which a related person or affiliate of Toth Financial has a
financial interest (“related accounts”) may participate in batched transactions with Toth
Financial’s other advisory clients. Toth Financial effects batched transactions in a manner
designed to ensure that no participating client, including any related account, is favored over any
other client. Specifically, each client that participates in a batched transaction will participate at
the average share price for all of Toth Financial’s transactions in that security on that business
day, with respect to that batched order. Securities purchased or sold in a batched transaction are
11
allocated pro-rata, when possible, to the participating client accounts in proportion to the size of
the order placed for each account. Toth Financial may, however, increase or decrease the amount
of securities allocated to each account if necessary to avoid holding odd-lot or small numbers of
shares for particular clients.
Additionally, if Toth Financial is unable to fully execute a batched transaction and Toth Financial
determines that it would be impractical to allocate a small number of securities among the
accounts participating in the transaction on a pro-rata basis, Toth Financial may allocate such
securities in a manner determined in good faith to be a reasonable and fair allocation.
Allocation
When Toth Financial transacts securities for more than one account, the investment opportunities
and trades are allocated in a manner consistent with our fiduciary duties. Toth Financial takes into
account cash availability and need, suitability, investment objectives and guidelines and other
factors deemed appropriate in making investment allocation decisions. The Chief Compliance
Officer will conduct periodic reviews of client account performance and purchase and sale
journals to ensure that no client or group of clients is being systematically favored or harmed in
the selection and allocation of investment opportunities.
Toth Financial is not obligated to acquire for any account any security that we or our officers,
partners, members, or employees may acquire for their own accounts or for the account of any
other client, if in our absolute discretion it is not practical or desirable to acquire a position in
such security.
Directed Brokerage
Toth Financial generally uses Charles Schwab & Co. as the broker for its client accounts. The
decision to use Charles Schwab is based on the excellent service that both Toth Financial and clients
receive from them. On a semi-annual basis Toth Financial researches the market to ensure that the
commissions paid to Charles Schwab are competitive in relation to the services provided by other
broker-dealers. Currently, Toth Financial utilizes limited research products provided by Charles
Schwab. If a client wishes for the advisor to use another broker, other than Charles Schwab, Toth
Financial may accommodate the request. Discretionary power is required for the accounts held at
Charles Schwab & Co.
Clients that restrict Toth Financial from using a particular broker-dealer (or direct Toth Financial
to use a particular broker-dealer) for executing their transactions will generally be unable to
participate in aggregated orders and will be precluded from receiving the benefits, if any, of an
aggregation which other clients may receive. In general, Toth Financial will execute aggregated
orders for non-directed clients before we execute orders for clients that direct brokerage.
12
Held Away Accounts
Certain client accounts such as employer sponsored 401(k) Plans, 403(b) Plans, etc., that are held
with a custodian that is not directly accessible to Toth Financial are hereby referred to as Held
Away Accounts (HAA). Toth Financial has retained Pontera Solutions, Inc. (Pontera) to provide
an Order Management System (OMS) to facilitate management of held away assets/accounts.
The OMS platform allows the Advisor to affect discretionary trades on such accounts without
direct access to client log-in credentials. Accounts will be rebalanced considering client
investment goals and risk tolerance. Any change in allocations will consider current economic
and market trends. In addition, assets held in HAA will be included in the client’s performance
and asset allocation reports. Toth Financial will only manage HAA with the client’s written
permission.
In order to provide more comprehensive financial services to our clients, Toth Financial may refer
clients with insurance needs to FIDx, a third-party insurance broker. Toth Financial does not
receive commissions or sales credits for client referrals to FIDx. At no time will Toth Financial
accept or maintain custody of a client’s held-away insurance related accounts, funds, or securities.
Toth Financial clients are advised that they are under not obligation to purchase, exchange, or
liquidate/terminate any insurance products offered through FIDx.
Fees for managing HAA, including investments inside held-away insurance accounts, will be
included in the fee schedule described in ITEM 5: Fees and Compensation. Toth Financial is not
affiliated with Pontera in any way and receives no compensation from Pontera for using the
platform.
ITEM 13: Review of Accounts
Brokerage assets are held at Charles Schwab & Co. Charles Schwab. Charles Schwab provides
the client with monthly statements. Toth Financial has access to these statements through their
secure website.
Portfolio Management Using Individual Stocks with Annual Reporting
Once per year the client will receive a detailed report providing portfolio analysis of the holdings
including performance data. This report will be included with the annual contract renewal.
Portfolio Management Using Individual Stocks with Quarterly Reporting
Each calendar quarter, the client will receive a detailed report providing portfolio analysis of the
holdings including performance data. This service is provided automatically unless the client
requests that the report be sent less frequently.
13
ITEM 14: Client Referrals and Other Compensation
We have entered into client referral arrangements with third parties whereby we will pay a
solicitor a portion of the advisory fees paid by clients referred to Toth Financial by those
solicitors. In such cases, this practice will be disclosed in writing to the client, and we will comply
with the other requirements of Rule 206(4)-1 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as
amended, to the extent required by applicable law.
ITEM 15: Custody
All client accounts are held in custody by unaffiliated broker-dealers or banks, but Toth Financial
can access many client accounts though its ability to debit advisory fees. For this reason,
Toth Financial is considered to have custody of client assets. Account custodians send
statements directly to the account owners on at least a quarterly basis. Clients should carefully
review these statements and should compare these statements to any account information
provided by Toth Financial.
Toth Financial is considered to have custody of the Fund as it serves as the General Partner of
the Fund. Limited partners of the Fund will not receive statements from the custodian. Instead,
the Fund is subject to an annual audit and the audited financial statements are distributed to
each limited partner. The audited financial statements will be prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and distributed within 120 days of the Fund’s fiscal
year end.
ITEM 16: Investment Discretion
Toth Financial manages accounts on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis as agreed to
with the client. If the client grants Toth Financial investment discretion, we are authorized to
invest, sell, and reinvest proceeds in the client’s account without obtaining the client’s prior
confirmation of any proposed action. The only limitations on the investment authority will be
those limitations imposed in writing by the client. If Toth Financial is granted non-discretionary
authority, then we are authorized to invest, sell, and reinvest proceeds in the client’s account,
only upon obtaining prior confirmation from the client of any proposed action.
ITEM 17: Voting Client Securities
The obligation to vote client proxies shall rest with Toth Financial’s clients unless Toth Financial
is granted written authority to vote proxy on behalf of their account(s). Clients shall in no way
be precluded from contacting Toth Financial for advice or information about a particular proxy
vote. However, Toth Financial shall not be deemed to have proxy voting authority solely as a
result of providing such advice to clients.
14
Additionally, Toth Financial shall be responsible for voting proxies on behalf of the Fund
consistent with our fiduciary duty to the Fund.
Toth Financial has retained Broadridge Investor Communications Solutions (Broadridge) to
facilitate coordinating, monitoring, and voting proxies with respect to those accounts for which
Toth Financial has been granted full authority to vote proxies. Toth Financial subscribes to an
automated Broadridge service: Proxy Policies & Insights (PPI). PPI is a data-driven Shareholder
Value (SV) Template (Template), created using the publicly disclosed vote records of top fund
families whose goal is to maximize shareholder value.
PPI does not provide subjective research reports and does not include any Broadridge
recommendation as to the manner in which Toth Financial should vote or the factors that Toth
Financial should consider when voting on any issue, candidate, or ballot proposition.
Toth Financial retains the right to override the automated Template and may opt to abstain from
voting if it deems that abstinence is in its clients’ best interests or if an automated vote is not
provided by the Template.
Toth Financial will monitor Broadridge to ensure that proxies are voted in a timely manner and
will retain appropriate records. The Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) and Chief Investment
Officer (CIO) will review BROADRIDGE’s SV Template no less than annually to determine
their continued appropriateness. The Toth Financial Chief Investment Officer will review a
random sample of proxy votes no less than annually to determine consistency of client votes
based on the pre-determined Template.
With regard to all matters other than proxies for which shareholder action is required or solicited
with respect to securities beneficially held by the Fund, such as (i) all matters relating to class
actions, including without limitation, matters relating to opting in or opting out of a class and
approval of class settlements and (ii) bankruptcies or reorganizations, Toth Financial will take all
necessary actions.
The client retains the right to direct how it wishes Toth Financial to vote on any proxy.
ITEM 18: Financial Information
Toth Financial has never filed for bankruptcy and is not aware of any financial condition that
is expected to affect its ability to manage client accounts.
