ITEM 2. RELATIONSHOPS AND SERVICESWHAT INVESTMENT SERVICES CAN YOU PROVIDE ME?
JKFS and its financial professionals can provide you brokerage services and, if your financial professional has the appropriate license. If you choose to hire JKFS and your financial professional to provide these services, JKFS will establish for you one or more accounts.
JKFS through its cleaning firm Hilltop Securities Inc, provides brokerage, execution, clearing, and custody services;

In other words, a financial professional will not enter orders or otherwise transact in your brokerage account unless you authorize us to do so.
In providing brokerage services, neither your financial professional nor JKFS will provide investment advice in a fiduciary capacity for special compensation like if JKFS provides in conjunction with its investment advisory services. Rather, any investment advice if JKFS provides in conjunction with brokerage services will be incidental to JKFS’ primary business as a broker-dealer, which is selling, buying and exchanging securities.
Your professional in JKFS may recommend only those securities he or she is licensed to recommend.
ITEM 3: FEES, COSTS, CONFLICTS AND STANDARD OF CONDUCT
WHAT FEES WILL I PAY?
The fees that you will pay may be one or more of the following:
Commission: A commission is dollar amount JKFS receives each time it buys or sells a security other than a mutual fund when JKFS acts as your agent. The maximum commission shall not exceed 5% of the principal amount of the Transaction unless the trade is subject to the minimum commission guidelines. We basically follow the Commission Schedule of our clearing firm Hilltop Securities, Inc. which is variable upon request. These commissions are paid from your account.
Loads and Contingent Deferred Sales Charges: A dollar amount JKFS receives each time it purchases or redeems a mutual fund share. These fees reduce the number of shares you receive when you purchase a fund’s shares and reduce the number of shares you receive when you redeem the fund’s share.
Other Mutual Fund Fees: The “12b-1 fees” are fees paid by the mutual funds to JKFS for selling the funds. The mutual funds also pay JKFS “shareholder servicing fees” and “sub-transfer agent fees” for the provision of other services. All o these fees are based upon a percentage of the JKFS client assets invested in the mutual funds. These fees are not paid from your account, but rather are paid from the mutual fund. The result of such fees is that the value of fund shares held in your account decreases.
Other Fees: Our clearing firm, Hilltop Securities Inc will charge fees for a number of services it provides that are apart from the brokerage services we describe above. For example, it charges fees for maintenance of certain accounts, like individual retirement accounts, and to process certain kinds of transactions, like account withdrawals and transfers.
You will pay fees and costs whether you make or lose money on your investments. Fees and costs will reduce the amount of money you make on your investments over time. Please make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying.
Conversation Starter: Help me understand how these fees and costs might affect my investments. If I give you $10,000 to invest, how much will go to fees and how much will be invested for me?
WHAT ARE YOUR LEGAL OBLIGATIONS TO ME WHEN PROVIDING RECOMMENDATIONS AS MY BROKER-DEALER? HOW ELSE DOES YOUR FIRM MAKE MONEY AND WHAT CONFLICTS OF INTEREST DO YOU HAVE?
When we provide you with a recommendation as your broker-dealer, we have to act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. At the same time, the way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests. You should understand and ask us about these conflicts because they can affect the recommendations, we provide you.
The following is an example to help you understand what JKFS means: JKFS and your financial professional act as your broker-dealer and agent, have an incentive to buy and sell securities more frequently in order to increase its compensation.
