III.TRANSACTION TYPE

A.TOTAL DISTRIBUTION (Select one—account will be closed)

1.Total distribution of the entire account—Your account will be closed. Your securities will be mailed to you, if possible, along with any remaining cash balance, unless you request them to be moved to the Pershing account indicated in Section V. Please arrange to have your investment professional liquidate or sell all assets you deem necessary to fulfill fee obligation.

2.Total distribution of entire account in cash—Select this if you wish to have all assets distributed in cash. Please arrange with your investment professional or financial organization to liquidate or sell all assets.

B.ONE-TIME DISTRIBUTION—For a single adhoc asset movement:

This results in a one-time movement of your specified assets.

1.Indicate the dollar amount of the partial distribution in US Dollars.

2.Indicate the description and quantity of securities that you wish to receive. Please use the security descriptions as they appear on your brokerage account statement.

C.PERIODIC INSTRUCTIONS—For recurring distributions on a specified date

This may be completed for scheduled check, ACH, and journal distributions. This is not available for fed fund wires or partial delivery of securities.

1.Indicate whether this is a new request or a change of an existing instruction.

2.a. Select distribution frequency.

b.Provide beginning date and end date if applicable. If no beginning date is selected, the first day of the month after the month that that Pershing receives a completed form will be selected. If the day selected falls on a non-business day, your payment will be made on the first business day thereafter.

3.Provide a dollar amount to receive distributions of a specified amount. Only available funds will be sent on the date you select. You must make arrangements with your investment professional or financial organization to ensure cash is available on scheduled distribution dates or your payment will be hair-cut.

4.Income includes: dividends, interest, and mutual fund capital gains.

5.REQUIRED MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION (RMD)—Selecting this option will create scheduled instructions to meet your annual RMD amount. Federal income tax law generally requires that IRA owners commence RMDs beginning the year the IRA owner reaches the age of 70½ (Roth IRAs are excluded from this requirement):

Note: The Worker, Retiree, and Employer Recovery Act of 2008 waived RMDs for 2009. Failure to take the RMD by the deadline will result in a 50% excise tax on any portion of the required amount not withdrawn. As a reminder, if securities must be liquidated to accommodate a cash distribution, please ensure that the settlement date of the transaction occurs on or before the date the request is sent to Pershing. Clients with instructions for scheduled periodic distributions may have already satisfied a portion of their RMD amount. As a result, only a portion of the calculated amount may need to be withdrawn to satisfy the RMD. Please note that this scheduled instruction will continue for the yearly RMD calculation, unless new instructions are received.

Note: Last Business Day of the Year Processing. If your account has active scheduled RMD instructions, and the account’s RMD obligation for the year has not been met by the last day of the year, a ‘supplemental’ distribution (up to the available cash in your account) will occur in order to meet the RMD amount. For this purpose, we will add all scheduled and one-time distributions taken during the year when determining if the RMD has been met. Any changes that affect your calculation-factor and/or the fair market value of the IRA for the previous year may affect the calculation of your RMD amount.

IV. TAX WITHHOLDING ELECTION (Rates are subject to change without notice)

(NOTE: Education Savings Accounts are exempt from tax withholding.)

We are required to withhold federal income tax (and state income tax depending on your residency) from distributions. You may elect not to have federal income tax withheld by completing this section. In some cases, you may elect not to have state income tax withheld. If no election is made, 10% federal income tax and applicable state income tax will be withheld unless you indicate otherwise. For states with voluntary withholding, no withholding will apply if a percentage or dollar amount is not specified. For requests to have federal income tax withholding in a dollar amount, ensure that the amount is equal to or greater than 10% of the gross distribution amount.

If you are not a U.S. citizen or U.S resident alien, you must submit IRS Form W-8BEN, Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding, to claim any tax treaty benefits. Nonresident aliens and foreign estates are generally subject to 30% federal tax withholding on payments from U.S. sources unless a tax treaty exemption has been claimed on IRS Form W-8BEN.

For U.S. persons withholding is required on payments delivered outside of the U.S. or its possessions. Penalties may be incurred under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and/or tax payments are not sufficient for the tax year.

Note: Taxes withheld from your distribution in accordance with your instructions will not be reversed. You may revoke your election at any time before the distribution is processed. Your election remains effective until revoked. Contact your Investment Professional for a copy of Pershing's IRA Federal and State Income Tax Withholding Instructions For additional information regarding federal and state tax withholding, contact your tax professional.
