TRAINING MANUAL

Family Legacy by Design

TOM CONWAY

With four children and ten grandchildren, Tom has a passion to help families create and build a family legacy that will carry on for generations to come.

Three words: CLARITY, ALIGNMENT, and COMMUNICATION, are at the heart of what Legacy by Design does with families. We help them gain clarity around their goals in five areas of their legacy

(personal, family, financial, business, and charitable). Next, we review their existing plan to see how well it aligns with that clarity. Finally, once that plan is aligned, we assist them in communicating and discussing that plan with the next generations. This is done in family meetings.

We do all this through the Multi-Generational Legacy Coaching Process. This process helps families gain clarity and confidence around what they believe God wants them to do with their resources. It helps them quantify their needs for the future, what they wish to leave for their family, what they will do with their business, and how the remainder of their resources can be released to organizations that reflect their values. It often leads to a zero estate tax plan.

We believe the lack of clarity around their legacy issues keeps many families from maximizing the use of their resources. In addition, many families do not know whether their existing plans match up with what they believe God would have them to do with what He has entrusted to them.

Tom is a CPA by training whose career has led him to serve with numerous financial service and ministry organizations such as Ernst & Young, Cru, Ronald Blue & Co., Perimeter Church, Generous Giving, Inc., National Christian Foundation, Kingdom Advisors, and Haggai Institute.

Tom is a Qualified Kingdom Advisor (QKA™) and contributing author to two books: unHERITAGE – The 11 Pitfalls of Family Legacy and How to Avoid Them and unPREPARED – 14 Elements of Successful Wealth Transfer.

Living and serving in Africa for several years and working extensively in Europe, Asia, and Russia enhanced Tom’s global Christian perspective. Tom and his wife Susan have been married for 46 years and live in Atlanta, Georgia with their Down syndrome daughter, Pamela Joy.

REVIEW IN DETAIL THE FAMILY LEGACY GOALS AND GAPS ANALYSIS

Joe and Mary Client – November 2019

GOAL ANALYSIS (YOUR STATED GOALS)

Mary:

√ To see your children and grandchildren thriving in life

√ To have a close relationship with your children and grandchildren

√ To continue to grow spiritually

√ To see your extended family experience healthy relationships and grow in unity

√ To find a ministry to do together with Joe

√ To support Joe in his position as leader of the company

Joe:

√ To eventually own 100% of Your Company

√ To have clarity on what to do with the business

√ To have clarity on how much to leave to children and to charity at the end of life

√ To define how much is enough for you and Mary for the rest of their lives

√ To communicate and have discussion with his children about his estate plans

√ To have a plan for a slow down at age 65 and an eventual plan for retirement

√ To have clarity on what to do with the assets in the Family Foundation

√ To include their children in their giving plans

√ To maintain good health and good relationships with children

√ To visit the Holy Land in the next 2 years

Your current plan falls short of the goals mentioned in your goals conversation.

GOALS & GAPS ANALYSIS ( gaps in your current plans)

1. Personal Legacy Gaps: Estate Planning Gaps

√ Your current and proposed documents are not aligned with your stated objectives.

√ Joe’s current estate plan leaves all of his estate to Mary, and then to your two children at the end of Mary’s life. This would have each of your children inheriting $32M+ after estate tax.

√ Your current estate plan would leave your family subject to an estimated $25M+ in estate tax at the death of the second to die.

√ In addition, your daughter will be subject to estate tax of $4.1M upon her death.

√ Some of your current life insurance will be in your estate and will cause estate tax to be paid unnecessarily. That insurance can be removed from your estate to your Irrevocable trusts and passed tax-free to heirs.

√ Up until 2019, we assume you are using your annual gift tax exclusions ($15,000 per beneficiary, $30,000 from you as a couple, now with a grandchild, up to a total of $90,000) to pay premiums on the 3 policies in your irrevocable trusts.

√ Since you purchased your new insurance policy in January of 2019 (premium of $240,000), you will begin to be using some of your lifetime exemption each year ($176,156) for the amount you transfer into the Irrevocable trust to pay annual premiums.

√ Gift tax returns need to be filed for gifts made to your irrevocable trusts for life insurance premiums.

√ Your current estate plan leaves nothing to charity at the end of life.

√ Your current estate plan does not include any language regarding your personal faith and your desires for your descendants.

√ Your estate documents do not take advantage of disclaimer funded donor advised fund language that could eliminate estate tax both for you and your children upon the death of the second to die.

√ Depending upon how much you decide to leave to your children, you should consider using your $22.8M estate and gift tax exemption before it expires in 2026.

√ Once your Revocable Living Trust is signed, you should put your out of state assets into these trusts to avoid probate in those states (especially the Alabama property).

√ You do not have an advisory group to assist Mary in business decisions related to the ongoing management of the company in the event of Joe’s passing.

√ Your current estate plan has the National Christian Foundation as your Remote Contingent Distribution recipient if your family has no living

descendants. However, there are no instructions to NCF as to how the money should be distributed and you have given that authority to them.

√ Your brother’s estate owes significant estate taxes. Possibly Your, LLC could redeem some of those shares from the estate to create liquidity to pay estate tax.

2. Family Legacy Gaps

Clarity & Communication Gaps:

√ It is important for you to codify and communicate to your children and grandchildren your love for the Lord, your values, what is important to you, and how you hope to see the family legacy passed on to future generations. This information can be included in your documents.

√ We have a strong relationship with a couple, who lead a company that could be of great assistance with Mary’s desire to build unity among her extended family.

Wealth Transfer Gaps

√ Current documents leave your two children close to $32M+ each, including assets already transferred to them and life insurance proceeds in the Irrevocable Life Insurance Trusts.

√ You need to settle on what is an appropriate inheritance for your children. What will be a blessing to them and not a curse?

Wisdom Transfer Gaps

√ One of the biggest mistakes people make is to focus on wealth transfer without creating an intentional and proactive plan for wisdom transfer.

√ One of the greatest opportunities you have in the area of family legacy is in developing an intentional and proactive plan for wisdom transfer to your children, grandchildren, and future generations. This plan for Wisdom

Transfer should include:

o Working with your son and daughter to create a family vision, mission, and values for your family.

o Transferring life lessons learned (both from the things you did right and the mistakes you made along the way).

o Preparing your heirs to be wise stewards of their inheritance (money management skills, saving & investing, getting wise counsel, proper view of the dangers of debt, etc.)

o Sharing and codifying your respective family stories so they gain a sense of their identity and destiny as part of your family!

o Passing on your life stories and the things you each have experienced in your journey through life that have made you who you are today. Include in this, your salvation story and what your faith and your relationship with Christ mean to you now.

√ Regular family meetings could be used to draw your family together, build relationships, communicate your family history, establish family values, train the next generation of stewards, and prepare them for the wealth they will receive.

3. Financial Legacy Gaps

Income

& Capital Gains Gaps:

√ You should consider moving a significant portion of your Company CMA account out of the company into your personal joint account. This would protect you should there be a significant issue in the company that would impact your personal liability.

√ You should have your CFO prepare a personal income tax projection for you for the current tax year 2019. Then you can look at possible year end strategies to reduce your 2019 tax liability.

√ With your strong charitable desires, you should consider setting up a donor advised fund with either the National Christian Foundation, Provision Bridge, or The Signatry and make significant contributions into it before year end to maximize your charitable deductions.

√ Your annual income puts you in the highest tax bracket (37% federal and 5.75% state). That means that any charitable giving you do before year end will only cost you 57 cents for every dollar given.

√ You should look at your e-trade account to see if you have any gains in positions you have held for over a year. If so, you should gift those shares, in lieu of cash, to your donor advised fund, and then use the cash to buy back the positions at a higher cost basis. This will enable you to eliminate the capital gains in those shares and allow you to increase your basis in the shares you want to continue to hold.

√ If funds allow, you should maximize your 50% (now 60%) charitable income tax deduction each year. This will reduce your current income tax liability and your eventual estate tax liability.

√ Before selling any sizable highly appreciated asset, review potential opportunities to reduce or eliminate capital gains tax.

√ Retirement assets are the best assets to leave to charity at the end of life.

Investment Management and Asset Allocation Gaps

√ Some of your insurance is owned by you and thus included in your taxable estate. You should move those life insurance policies into your Irrevocable Trusts.

√ You should consider transferring the ownership of the life insurance policies on your children’s lives to their ownership.

Asset Protection Gaps

√ Your existing retirement accounts pay to your spouse on your death. You should review the contingent beneficiaries and make your charitable entity (DAF or Private Foundation) as the secondary beneficiary on your retirement assets. Otherwise, your family may have to pay both Income in Respect of a Decedent (IRD) taxes and estate taxes on your retirement plan assets upon the death of the second to die.

4. Business Legacy

Business Succession – Wealth Transfer Gaps

√ You do not have a written business continuity plan that would instruct others as to how the business should be run if you were suddenly disabled or incapacitated.

√ There is no written business succession plan for transferring the business in the future. We believe that the wise stewardship of your business legacy requires a well thought out Business Succession Plan. This will help to assure that the spiritual values you hold dear will be passed on as well as financial value.

√ You should create and begin to use an Advisory Team for your spouse to help in the leadership of the company once you are gone.

√ There is no Buy/Sell Agreement or Shareholder Agreement in the business that will aid in the systematic transfer of the business and ensure that your family receives the value for the shares they own.

√ One of the big issues that many business owners neglect is the proper transfer of “control”. There are ways to structure business succession and exit plans so that you can maintain “control” as long as you desire and progressively transfer ownership to the next generations.

√ You should consider giving annual and end of life gifts of your company stock to a DAF to reduce current and future income and estate tax liabilities.

√ You should consider gifting Company Stock to a DAF at the end of your life and let your heirs purchase the stock from the charity with a Note.

Business Legacy – Wisdom Transfer Gaps

√ I applaud you in what you are doing to pass on your spiritual values to the next generation of company leaders. (Man in the Mirror Study, 7 Habits of Highly Effective People Study)

√ Fellowship with other Christian CEOs (such as a Convene, C-12, YPO, or FCCI) could help you as you continue to lead your company.

5. Kingdom or Charitable Legacy

Charitable Giving and Life Service Gaps

√ Currently your sister is the only trustee of the Family Foundation, Inc.

√ You should consider setting up a Donor Advised Fund (DAF) at either The Signatry or the National Christian Foundation for year-end giving. A DAF is a great tool to use for both personal and corporate giving during life and at the end of life. It also allows you to give anonymously.

√ Consider maximizing your 60% AGI charitable giving limitation each year. This will enable you to give to the charities you believe in, and also significantly reduce your tax liabilities.

√ The gifting of non-liquid assets such as highly appreciated securities, business interests, and land are the most tax efficient way to give as opposed to making cash gifts.

√ You currently have no charitable giving in your estate plan; yet you have indicated a desire to give generously.

√ The best assets to leave to charity at the end of life are retirement funds (IRD assets) as they avoid both IRD income taxes and estate taxes.

√ You have indicated a desire to instill “a giving heart” in your children and eventually your grandchildren. We can help you with a strategy to do that.

SESSION

8 STAGE 2 – STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION

BEFORE WE BEGIN: What does “strategy” mean to you and how would you communicate it to your client?

Think about what you’ve learned in Stage 1 of the Legacy Coaching Process – Family Legacy Review How can a thorough analysis, inventory, and understanding of your clients’ technical and relational needs, goals, and gaps better inform a strategy?

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Learn to approach your clients’ need for a family legacy plan with deliberation and purpose.

o Legacy by design vs. legacy by default

• Learn the importance of other advisors and how your client should employ them in their legacy plan

o Know the different types of advisors and planning team members.

Those might be considered “Advisors”, but probably not “Trusted Advisors”.

6. Out of those who you consider to be “Trusted Advisors”, please evaluate each on the basis of:

• Character (You trust their Heart)

NOTES

SAMPLE FAMILY CONSTITUTION

SMITH FAMILY

Mission/Values: XYZ Company and its various entities was founded in Butte, Montana by John Smith, influenced and encouraged by his father Fred. The intent was to honor God using the gifts they developed in business and faithfulness, exercising excellence to build a profitable and enduring business. The intent was to use the profit created by the business to support the family and maximize the ability to give away resources to support God honoring ministries and charitable organizations.

It is the desire of the current family stewards of the business and highest intent to perpetuate running a sustainable business known for excellence, innovation, efficiency, and its commitment to God and running on Christian principles

Values Foundational to our business:

• Faithful Stewardship

• Excellence

• Integrity

• Innovation

• Customer Service

Intent: This constitution is meant to layout our desires as stewards to operate and manage our business and families. We seek to see owners rewarded for their risk, bless all those who we encounter in our business with respect and dignity, providing sustainable businesses, products, services and relationships.

The drive to be efficient and innovative to reasonably maximize profit is to provide for our families and significantly support advancing Christian work. We want to maximize our integrity with all people and maximize the ability to financially support Christian causes.

Section 1 Governance: The Family Advisory Board (FAB), described in section 2, will make all policies and guidelines regarding the investment, management, philanthropy, or other uses for the business and/or family involving the distribution of business resources and profit.

Philanthropy: Charitable contributions will be made to one charitable foundation on behalf of the corporation as determined by the FAB. This will be a high priority to support from the profitability of the business. The objective is to give from the business at least 10% of the profit annually.

Business Investment: We seek to take a long-term perspective in our business decisions. We want to allocate sufficient resources to our business plans to allow for future opportunities while continuing to maintain well this vital engine that makes all our personal and professional goals operate. Our intent is to grow the business which will require sufficient capital for equipment, facilities, logistics and people.

Distributions: It is the intent to distribute significant portion of profit after charitable considerations, to the owners. It is the expectation that the owner’s will support their families and there is no intention to have families supported directly through the business beyond appropriate income and benefits in line with the work they do for the business.

Tax Planning: Income and transfer tax planning strategies that reduce the family’s overall tax liability with integrity, will be encouraged and recommended when deemed appropriate by the FAB.

Section 2 Family Advisory Board:

Composition: The FAB will be made up of Five (5) voting members. Each family represented in ownership will have one vote, currently there are three families, and their voting members are John, Frank, and Scott. The other two (2) voting members will be appointed by a majority vote of the family members or a unanimous vote if less than three family voting members. The other voting

members (2) will be non-family members, in the sense not directly in the line of any of the three voting family members. They might be as examples, trusted uncle/aunt, CFO, CEO, or outside trusted advisor.

Voting: All decisions/actions to be taken by the FAB will be decided by a majority of the voting members. Any family voting member may request a formal vote and decision on any topic.

Tenure: The family voting members will serve if they or their family retain ownership until death, resignation, incapacity, or removal if reasonable cause is shown. Removal would require a unanimous vote of all remaining voting members (family and non-family).

Non-family voting members will serve until death, resignation, incapacity, or removal. Removal may be for any reason with a majority vote of the voting family members or a unanimous vote if less than three voting family members.

Successors: The family voting members will name their successors and have them recorded. If a successor is not named the remaining family voting members will name the successor, which must be a person in the direct family line or spouse. The vote to name the successor must be unanimous.

Non-family voting successors will be named by a majority vote of the current family voting members, if less than three the vote must be unanimous.

Meetings: The FAB should meet at least quarterly to review the business financials, operations, strategies as well as review how the family values are being lived out in stewarding the business. A review of the engagement, preparedness and plan of any family members contemplating or active in the business.

Written notice for the meeting must be given three (3) days in advance to each member unless such notice is waived in writing by a member.

Section 3 Ownership: It is the intent that to hold ownership in the family business you must be employed and have worked full time for two (2) years at one of the

companies before being considered for ownership.

Qualifying employment is intended to be with a career focus. Employment part time seasonal or full time intended for a stage in life (teen, college, pre-children, etc.) would not apply to qualifying for ownership but is welcome from family members.

Section 4 Career Employment: The driving force behind our decisions should be the best interest of the organization and not that of individual family members.

Philosophy:

• We want to attract the most qualified people to our companies, both family and non-family

• We encourage all of our family to work at our companies, but it is neither a job or an obligation for family members

• Family members upon being hired will be treated as all-other employees.

• There is no guarantee that family members will be promoted to top management positions simply because they are part of the family.

• Family members are expected to be examples as far as work ethic, integrity, performance, and dedication.

• We cannot employ individuals whether family members or not who do not make a full contribution.

Prerequisite Qualifications:

• Educational Requirements: It is encouraged that all family members experience post high school education.

• Outside Work Experience: A successful work experience of 2 years outside of our family companies is required. This work experience should help expose you to skills or situations that might be helpful to our companies and be completed without preferential treatment. The Family Advisory Board should approve the work experience or appoint a committee to approve the work prior to it being assumed by any

individual family member that the work would qualify.

• Family Employment-Specifics

o Family members who wish to join the company should inform the President/CEO of their desire to join. They would then be asked to complete the standard application forms

o Family members will go through the standard interviewing, assessment and hiring process

o The final decision for hiring rests with the Family Advisory Board (Possibly Board in the future)

o A Career Development Plan (CDP) will be established for every family member working at our companies for their career. This would include training, continuing educations, coaching, mentoring, special projects/assignments, job rotations, etc.

o Family employees will be asked to provide a yearly selfassessment, including personal development objectives for the following year

o Promotion and advancement recommendations will be made by their supervisor or by the company’s management with a final decision by the FAB (or future board)

o Family members may be dismissed related to continued poor performance, unacceptable personal conduct, and any other grounds on which a non-family employee may be dismissed

o A family member that has been dismissed by the company will not be reconsidered for employment

o A family member that might leave voluntarily may return to work for our companies subject to the approval of the FAB.

• Compensation: Family members will receive compensation and benefits based on their position, responsibilities, qualifications, and performance and will be comparable to that of non-family employees in a similar position, with similar qualifications. Share ownership or family connection will not determine their salary. As owners, they will receive income through the return from their shares.

Section 5 Amendments: The Family Advisory Board may take any action it deems appropriate with respect to the subject matter of this constitution including amending this constitution with the written consent of a majority of its then acting voting members.

NOTES

LEAVING A LEGACY: 10 QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER

A helpful collection of questions to gauge where you are with your family legacy

If your answers to the questions below ignite anxiety or fear, you’re not alone. Many individuals and families blessed with great wealth don’t feel adequately prepared when it comes to their end-of-life plan, how much they want to leave their heirs, and how much to give to charity. Making matters worse, spouses frequently are not aligned in their thinking around these topics and haven’t communicated their desires clearly to their children. We encourage you to read through these questions, answer them honestly, and consider how we can help you take next steps toward a better future.

1. How clear are you and your spouse about what you want to do with all you have been blessed with?

2. How aligned are you and your spouse about how much financial inheritance you are planning to leave to your children and how and when will they receive it?

3. How confident are you that your children are prepared spiritually, emotionally, and financially to handle well the financial resources you are planning to leave to them?

Re: Engagement Letter

Dear John and Mary,

I look forward to being with you both on Monday. I am happy about your decision to engage our firm to do a Family Legacy Review for you. I believe this exercise will help you gain greater clarity around what you believe God wants you to do with what you have. It will also help you see whether your existing plans align with that clarity.

This Engagement Letter explains our process and lays out the next steps we will take to complete your Family Legacy Review.

There are three main elements to the Family Legacy Review Process:

1. When we meet on Monday, we will go through our Legacy Goals Conversation with you. This will involve my asking you many questions about your goals and desires in five areas of your legacy:

a. Personal Legacy

b. Family Legacy

c. Financial Legacy

d. Business Legacy

e. Kingdom Legacy

2. Next, I will gather all your financial and estate planning information using our FAMILY acronym explained below. I will then review all of

your current information in order to see how your current plan aligns with the goals that you state in your Legacy Goals Conversation. I will then identify any “GAPS” in your existing plan where your Legacy goals are not being fulfilled.

3. The deliverable to you will be our “Goals and Gaps Analysis”. This report will identify areas where your current plan does not align with your goals, and will identify potential strategies you could utilize to better align your plan with your goals. In the Family Legacy Review, we will make specific recommendations about “next steps” we believe you should consider.

Documents Needed

In order to complete your Family Legacy Review, I will work with you to gather some information from you to review. We use the acronym FAMILY to describe the information we want to review.

F - Financial Statements - Includes balance sheets, income statements, and net worth overview.

A - Assets Under Management - Investments, retirement accounts, business interests, and property.

M- Mandatory Documents - Wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and other legal documents.

I - Insurance Coverage - Life, long-term care, disability, and liability protections.

L - Liabilities & Taxes - Outstanding debts, tax returns, and potential estate tax exposure.

Y - Yearly Cash Flow - Income sources, budgeting, and spending patterns.

F - Financial Statements – This is a listing of your assets and liabilities. If you have a Personal Financial Statement already prepared, that would be great.

A - Assets Under Management – Checking accounts, investment accounts, retirement accounts, etc. Also any beneficiary designations on any retirement accounts you may have.

M- Mandatory Documents – Estate Planning documents, LLC documents, Buy/Sell Agreements, trust documents (if any), IRA or 401(k) beneficiary designations, etc.)

I - Insurance Coverage – (Last 2 years for each)

(Most recent statements, Face Page & Renewal Premium Schedules from Policies)

L - Liabilities & Taxes

a. Personal Tax Returns (Federal and State)

b. Corporate Tax Returns

c. Trust Tax Returns (if any)

Y- Yearly Cash Flow (any Budget or cash flow information you may have on your living expenses)

We will work with you and/or your assistant to make the process as simple & efficient as possible! Some people find it easier to scan and email the documents, others prefer to copy them and send them to us. Either way is fine. If your assistant chooses to scan “FAMILY” information to us, please email it to tom@conwayassoc.com.

Benefits & Expectations

Here is what you can expect from the Family Legacy Review.

1. We will help you gain more clarity around how you want to allocate the resources God has entrusted to you.

2. We will help you see clearly whether your existing plan aligns with the goals you indicate in our Legacy Goals Conversation.

3. We will help you identify any “Gaps” in your existing plan.

4. We will lay out in detail any opportunities you should capitalize on in order to align your plans and improve your legacy.

5. We will make specific recommendations as to the most appropriate next steps to take to enhance the family legacy you desire to leave.

Once the Family Legacy Review is complete, we will lay out a plan for next steps. We will also estimate any potential current income, capital gains, or estate tax savings and quote the fees for those next steps in such a way that we believe the benefits of the Legacy Coaching process will be clear to you.

Fees

The cost of the Family Legacy Review is $10,000 payable in advance. Travel costs are reimbursable. You will be billed separately for travel costs.

Please feel free to call If you have any questions regarding this Engagement Letter. Please sign and return it to me along with your check.

Thank you for the privilege of serving you.

Sincerely yours,

Tom Conway President

Client Responsibilities

We believe that ongoing, honest communication between C&A and its clients is essential. You understand that the value and usefulness of the consulting services provided by C&A are dependent upon the information you provide us and upon your active participation in the formulation of goals and objectives.

If at any time, you feel C&A is not meeting your expectations, or worse, has done something upsetting to you, you agree to first contact Tom Conway, in order to provide C&A the opportunity to review the matter and take corrective action. If we are unable to resolve your concern, we agree to attempt to resolve any conflicts in mediation before resorting to any other forum.

4. You acknowledge that nothing contained in this Agreement violates the terms and conditions of any other agreements to which you may be bound.
