Commission Based

Under the Brokerage Plan scenario, a Plan Sponsor with the assistance of the Investment Consultant selects the mutual funds appropriate for their plan according to Plan demographics and investment needs.

The Brokerage Plan allows Plan Sponsors to make their selections from over 500 investment options and 16 different fund families covering all investment styles and asset classes. Fund families include:

• Alliance Funds
• ING Pilgrim Funds
• American Funds (R Class)
• JP Morgan
• AIM Funds
• MFS
• Calvert Funds
• Munder
• Columbia
• Oppenhiemer
• Davis Funds
• Pioneer
• Enterprise Funds
• Safeco
• Franklin/Templeton Group
• Van Kampen

The Brokerage Plan offers a “cost effective” solution to Plan Sponsors as funds offered pay finders fees and 12B-1’s.

The Plan Sponsor and Trustee assume sole Fiduciary Responsibility on the Plan as Alliance Benefit Group and the Investment Consultant do not perform investment analysis and monitoring.
