Managed Account Subscription Agreement

(Direct-to-consumer)

Last updated: 08/29/2022

Future Capital is a trade name of ProNvest, Inc. By entering into this Managed Account Subscription Agreement (“Agreement”), you, (the “Client,” “you,” “your”) subscribe to the web-based retirement planner for retirement account management and advisory services from ProNvest, Inc. dba Future Capital (“ProNvest,” “we,” “our,” “us”). 

1. Description of Services.  ProNvest is an investment adviser registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). Through our web-based retirement planner, we will manage your Employer Sponsored Retirement Account (“ESRA,” and herein “Account”) and provide related advisory services (collectively, the “Services”). You will receive discretionary asset allocation and fund selection services based on the personal and financial information you provide to us. Your assets shall be held by an independent custodian. Discretionary asset allocation means assets will be bought and sold for your Account without your approval of each trade. Your investment portfolio will be rebalanced to the target asset allocation at least once per quarter.
When we manage your Account, we create an investment portfolio with a diversified mix of mutual funds in an effort to balance risk and return. Recommendations are based on a glide path approach, adjusted for your age, retirement horizon, and the investment strategies (aggressive, moderate, or conservative) selected by you. Recommendations are further adjusted based on current balance, income, contribution level, and other assets which potentially impact your ability to reach your retirement goals. For clients with a longer retirement horizon, portfolios are created with more volatility and higher return potential (designed for capital appreciation). For clients with a shorter retirement horizon, portfolios are created with lower volatility and lower return potential (designed for capital preservation). At any time, you may accept, modify, or reject a recommended investment strategy.   You have access to our team of professional retirement counselors and other investment and retirement planning resources, including our GAP analysis tools, account and market data, and support for your outside accounts.

2. Power of Attorney.  You appoint ProNvest to provide discretionary Account management and act as your agent and attorney-in-fact with limited power and authority to act for and on behalf of you to buy, sell, and otherwise effect investment transactions in the name of your Account. No cash or securities or any property will be paid or delivered to ProNvest, except fees as provided in Section 7. This power of attorney will continue until this Agreement is terminated as provided below or we have actual receipt of notice of a Client’s death or judicially determined incompetence.
 
3. Your Responsibilities. We rely on the information you submit to us in order to provide you with our Services. You are solely responsible for: (i) providing true, accurate, and complete information; (ii) notifying us of any material change in your information or circumstance that might affect the manner in which your account should be invested (whether information pertaining to your financial circumstance, investment objective, risk tolerance, or otherwise); and (iii) notifying us immediately if you have knowledge of or suspect any unauthorized use of your information. You are further responsible for determining the suitability of your investments and strategies. You understand that the Services is not a substitute for seeking more specific or personalized advice regarding the investments and strategy appropriate for your risk tolerance, financial circumstances, and objectives.

4. Linked Accounts. To use the Services, you permit us to link to your third-party financial accounts.

6. Subscription Renewal; Cancellation; Termination. Your subscription to the Services will begin when you complete registration and will automatically continue on a month-to-month basis. You may cancel your subscription at any time upon five (5) days’ advance notice to us by contacting us at 1-866-738-5125 or at support@futurecapital.com.  If you cancel your subscription, you will not be entitled to a refund of any fees already paid. ProNvest, in our sole discretion, may suspend or terminate this Agreement at any time and without notice. You agree that we will have no liability to you for suspension or termination. Cancellation or termination of this Agreement will not affect the validity of any action previously taken by either party under this Agreement or any liabilities or obligations incurred prior to termination, including your obligation to pay fees and expenses incurred before termination.

7. Fees. We will charge you a monthly flat fee determined by the fair market value of the securities in your Account, calculated on the same day each month as date of our initial subscription. Your fee information will be provided to you upon sign-up and is available to you at any time in your account dashboard. Our current fees are as follows:

Monthly fee       Total Account assets
$20.00                  Each $50,000 under management
$9.00                    Any initial or remaining Account balance between $0.01- $49,999.99

For example, the fee for a client with an Account balance of $110,000.00 is calculated as follows:
$0.01 – $50,000.00          = $20.00
$50,000.00 – $100,000.00   = $20.00
$100,00.00 – $110,000.00         =   $9.00

Total Monthly Fee:  $49.00  

8. Payment and Payment Services. You will be charged your first monthly fee upon subscribing to the Services and you will continue to be charged a monthly fee on the same day each month as your initial subscription date unless this Agreement is suspended or terminated as set forth in Section 6. You understand that your subscription will automatically renew each month and you authorize us, without further notice to you, to collect the then-applicable fees using any credit card we have on record for you. If your credit card is declined for payment, we will notify you and may suspend or terminate your subscription unless and until you provide updated credit card information.
