5 Chuck Duddingston, CIMA Senior Investment Consultant Senior Vice President Wealth Advisor As a fully licensed investment professional for more than 28 years, Chuck works with multi-generational families on wealth management and next generation money acumen. He believes in the concept that your financial advisor should offer more capabilities than traditional money management. For that reason, he enjoys working with families on offering guidelines and resources for engaging, educating, and equipping the next generation for financial success. With many of his clients being senior level partners and business owners, Chuck developed a complimentary side to his practice offering institutional investment consulting services to corporate retirement plans. Being CIMA (Certified Investment Management Analyst) certified since 1999, Chuck incorporates a rigorous investment management process for both client segments in choosing and selecting potential investment portfolios. He has three daughters and two sons. He is currently an advisory board member to the American Craft Council and is a member of the Classic Car Club of America. Todd Sylvester Senior Vice President Wealth Advisor Knowledge of sophisticated compensation programs is vital when working with senior level corporate executives. Todd has more than 12 years of experience working with senior level executives on creating and implementing a holistic and personal wealth strategy, with a concentration on creating strategies to monetize and diversify concentrated equity positions, restricted stock and stock option holdings. Todd believes a wealth strategy must include conversations about investment management and lifestyle goals. But, it should also be personal, and address issues at the center of clients financial lives. Indeed, a sophisticated wealth strategy should offer guidance on portfolio questions, but it should also reflect the values and goals important in the clients overall financial life. Todd is a member of the Lutheran Social Services Foundation Board and is active on their Donor Relations and Marketing Committee. He is also a member of the Classic Car Club of America.

6 Mark Sylvester Financial Advisor Justin Botham Financial Advisor Offering a unique investment perspective to the group, Mark joined the Duddingston Sylvester Group after graduating law school in While at school, he concentrated his degree on hedge fund regulation and corporate finance. He uses those areas of knowledge in working with high net worth individual clients in discussing alternative forms of investments and income producing portfolios. Being part of a smaller family within the office (he and Todd are brothers), Mark enjoys working with the next generation of clients on financial acumen or money habits. This could include budget creation, basic financial acumen or large purchase consultation. This conversation was a natural progression for Mark after clerking at an estate planning law firm for many years prior to joining the group. He received his B.A. from Saint John s University in Accounting and Political Science, and received his J.D. from the University of Saint Thomas School of Law. He currently resides in Shorewood with his wife Jessica and daughter Drew. In an ever changing investment landscape, it is essential to have the analytical tools necessary for effective portfolio management and construction. Justin provides these services to the team. He is responsible for implementing, updating and rebalancing all client investment accounts. In addition to portfolio management, he runs the financial planning process within the group. He takes pride in offering a planning process that focuses not only on the real returns of the investment portfolio, but the overall financial life of the client. By using this approach, he is able to more effectively model future lifestyles sought and make recommendations to Chuck and Todd on current portfolio management. Justin received his B.A. from Iowa State University in Finance. He lives in Minneapolis with his wife Megan. He enjoys frequenting local restaurants and spending time at his family s cabin on Lake Minnetonka. 6 Morgan Stanley Smith Barney
