1 PART OF WEBSITE MATERIALS FOR SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS W2 HOME PAGE I HOME PAGE In recognition of the challenges that many American businesses and households face, Tim Webb and Jonah Weiss founded W2 Wealth Management in November, 2009 to help individuals, families and institutions grow and protect their financial assets. W2 will work closely with you to help you determine your financial objectives, define your timeline, and prioritize your financial concerns. Furthermore, we understand that the financial well-being of your household or business is not solely limited to investment advice, so we will look at all of your goals, offer sound financial recommendations and discuss with you the risks and advantages of all of our recommendations. With W2, you can be certain that you ll receive sound financial and insurance advice all under one roof. Our financial expertise comes with an unbiased and independent approach, unlike some larger insurance and brokerage firms. We will not sell any financial products nor present any pre-designed plans to you; you have our word on that. W2 is in the business of building solid, long-term, high-quality relationships based on trust and expertise. II About Tim Webb and Jonah Weiss Tim Webb began his financial career in 2003 as an advisor, managing individual and institutional accounts for A.G. Edwards & Sons. In 2007 he joined Smith Barney, a division of Citigroup. Tim s success and considerable financial experience has been invaluable in providing sound investment advice, the preservation of wealth and the growth of income for his individual and institutional clients. Often frustrated with the lack of attention given to clients by larger financial institutions, Tim is pleased to be providing exemplary service to all of his W2 clients. Tim holds the Series 7, 63 and 66 securities registrations, as well as his Illinois, Delaware and Indiana life and health insurance licenses. Jonah Weiss began his financial services career with A.G. Edwards in Indianapolis, and later transferred his business to Morgan Stanley in Chicago as financial advisor with both firms. A 2003 graduate of Ball State University with a degree in Advertising & Marketing, Weiss then moved to the independent side of the business, becoming Director of Insurance with his current broker/dealer, brokersxpress,llc, also located in Chicago.

2 As Director of Insurance with BrokersXpress,LLC, Weiss was responsible for all of the insurance and alternative investments of 150 registered representatives, as well as part of the daily brokerage and compliance operations. Weiss currently holds the Series 7, 63, and 65 securities designation, as well as his accident, life and health insurance licenses. Bottom: W2 uses the state-of-the-art platform from the brokersxpress, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of optionsxpressholdings, Inc., headquartered in Chicago. At W2, we provide a full range of financial services to our clients, including: Financial Planning (Asset Protection/Advanced Tax Minimization Strategies) Financial planning is a highly personal process. At W2, we work closely with each client by analyzing their financial goals and needs (i.e. estate, insurance and retirement planning), and risk tolerance levels, gathering all relevant information for these purposes, and creating an individualized investment strategy. Once we identify your short and long-term financial objectives, we determine a well-suited asset allocation model and select an appropriate mix of investment vehicles. Depending on each client s unique financial needs, the structure of the corresponding investment portfolio might range from a very conservative fixed-income-oriented portfolio to a portfolio comprised of growth-oriented investment tools, such as equities of EFTs. Financial planning also requires long-term attention. Your financial plan needs to be adapted to the major changes that take place in your life such as marriage, a new-born child, a home purchase, inheritance of money, or a change of career. As these changes take place in your life, we will work closely with you and discuss how they may affect your financial plans. Investment Management W2 provides portfolio management services, using the brokersxpress.com clearing platform, for clients who prefer the active portfolio management to achieve their financial goals. We utilize a range of thoroughly researched investment tools (i.e. individual stocks, mutual funds, ETFs, low-cost index funds, etc.), to implement a strategy in full accordance with each client s goals and risk tolerance. Portfolios are adjusted to anticipated market changes, and are monitored on a regular basis. We strongly emphasize portfolio diversification and regular portfolio reviews when working with our clients. We combine portfolio management with financial planning services, to be able to create a comprehensive financial plan that will meet your specific financial needs. We will provide a detailed investment performance overview on a regular basis, to determine if your portfolio is appropriately structured to meet these specific financial needs.

3 Retirement Planning/IRA Rollovers Retirement planning has drastically changed in the last few decades.
