THE COMPANY

InterOcean is an entrepreneurial financial services firm, We offer advisory services for investors wanting to grow and preserve their wealth and for owners of businesses interested in examining and executing value-creating, strategic transactions . Our lean organization ensures that our clients have access to personal attention from experienced, senior financial advisors. The Firm is comprised of five affiliate companies that together through its combined program, product and service offerings create useful synergies to serve our high net worth and business client constituencies:

• InterOcean Securities LLC ("IOS") - IOS provides retail and institutional brokerage services to high net worth clients, corporations, partnerships, trusts and other legal entities. IOS is a registered broker dealer with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). Also, IOS provides investment banking advisory services for middle market clients principally in the industrial, manufacturing and business services sectors. Our advisory services include mergers and acquisitions, corporate divestitures, LBOs, leveraged recapitalizations, fairness opinions and strategic alternative reviews

• InterOcean Wealth Management LLC ("IOWM") - IOWM provides investment advisory services to high net worth individuals, corporations, partnerships, trusts and other legal entities for a client's investment assets.

• InterOcean Insurance Group ("IOIG") - IOIG was formed to provide life, disability and health insurance products to high net worth clients to provide solutions for family wealth protection and estate planning issues.

• InterOcean Equity Partners ("IOEP") - IOEP was formed to make opportunistic private equity investments in private businesses and create access to private equity investment opportunities for clients through the creation of funds to allow access at lower minimums.

Our investment philosophy reflects the concepts of a "balanced portfolio": that is, each investment is evaluated in the context of the whole portfolio to achieve optimal returns relative to the investor's tolerance for risk. Through the use of alternative investment, products we give investors the opportunity to build portfolios that can increase return, over time, regardless of the "ups and downs" of the market.

As a Firm, our goal is to provide superior client service, prudent and effective advice and the highest level of commitment and integrity. Offering securities brokerage, investment advisory, and investment banking advisory services within a single boutique organization is a unique characteristic that we believe creates value for all of our clients. While we offer the capabilities of the "big box" financial advisory firms, unlike them we are able to tailor and customize our product and service offerings to meet the unique needs of each client.
