FINRA strongly encourages investors to use BrokerCheck to check the background of securities brokers and brokerage firms before deciding to conduct, or continue to conduct, business with them. What is included in a BrokerCheck report? BrokerCheck reports for individual brokers include information such as employment history, professional qualifications, disciplinary actions, criminal convictions, civil judgments and arbitration awards. BrokerCheck reports for brokerage firms include information on a firms profile, history, and operations, as well as many of the same disclosure events mentioned above. Please note that the information contained in a BrokerCheck report may include pending actions or allegations that may be contested, unresolved or unproven. In the end, these actions or allegations may be resolved in favor of the broker or brokerage firm, or concluded through a negotiated settlement with no admission or finding of wrongdoing. Where did this information come from? The information contained in BrokerCheck comes from FINRAs Central Registration Depository, or CRD and is a combination of: o information FINRA and/or the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) require brokers and brokerage firms to submit as part of the registration and licensing process, and o information that regulators report regarding disciplinary actions or allegations against firms or brokers. How current is this information? Generally, active brokerage firms and brokers are required to update their professional and disciplinary information in CRD within 30 days. Under most circumstances, information reported by brokerage firms, brokers and regulators is available in BrokerCheck the next business day. What if I want to check the background of an investment adviser firm or investment adviser representative? To check the background of an investment adviser firm or representative, you can search for the firm or individual in BrokerCheck. If your search is successful, click on the link provided to view the available licensing and registration information in the SEC's Investment Adviser Public Disclosure (IAPD) website at http://www.adviserinfo.sec.gov. In the alternative, you may search the IAPD website directly or contact your state securities regulator at http://www.nasaa.org. Are there other resources I can use to check the background of investment professionals?

Report# 58900-41969 about ROBERT O. KLEIN. Data current as of Friday, September 27, 2013. www.finra.org/brokercheck User Guidance Disclosure Events What you should know about reported disclosure events: 1. Disclosure events are certain criminal matters; regulatory actions; civil judicial proceedings; customer complaints, arbitrations, or civil litigations; employment terminations; and financial matters in which the broker has been involved. 2. Certain thresholds must be met before an event is reported to CRD, for example: o A law enforcement agency must file formal charges before a broker is required to report a particular criminal event. o A customer dispute must involve allegations that a broker engaged in activity that violates certain rules or conduct governing the industry and that the activity resulted in damages of at least $5,000. 3. Disclosure events in BrokerCheck reports come from different sources: o As mentioned at the beginning of this report, information contained in BrokerCheck comes from brokers, brokerage firms and regulators. When more than one of these sources reports information for the same disclosure event, all versions of the event will appear in the BrokerCheck report. The different versions will be separated by a solid line with the reporting source labeled. 4. There are different statuses and dispositions for disclosure events: o A disclosure event may have a status of pending, on appeal, or final. A "pending" disclosure event involves allegations that have not been proven or formally adjudicated. A disclosure event that is "on appeal" involves allegations that have been adjudicated but are currently being appealed. A "final" disclosure event has been concluded and its resolution is not subject to change. o A final disclosure event generally has a disposition of adjudicated, settled or otherwise resolved. An "adjudicated" matter includes a disposition by (1) a court of law in a criminal or civil matter, or (2) an administrative panel in an action brought by a regulator that is contested by the party charged with some alleged wrongdoing. A "settled" matter generally represents a disposition wherein the parties involved in a dispute reach an agreement to resolve the matter. Please note that brokers and brokerage firms may choose to settle customer disputes or regulatory matters for business or other reasons. A "resolved" matter usually includes a disposition wherein no payment is made to the customer or there is no finding of wrongdoing on the part of the individual broker. Such matters generally involve customer disputes. For your convenience, below is a matrix of the number and status of disclosure events involving this broker. Further information regarding these disclosure events can be found in the subsequent pages of this report. You also may wish to contact the broker to obtain further information regarding the disclosure events. 7 2013 FINRA. All rights reserved. Report# 58900-41969 about ROBERT O. KLEIN.
