TRANSFER ON DEATH

BENEFICIARY PLAN AGREEMENT

In order to have a TOD Beneficiary Plan (Plan) you must open a Scottrade, Inc. (Scottrade) OptionsFirst Brokerage Account for an Individual,Tenants in Common or Joint Tenants with Rights of Survivorship (existing accounts are eligible). Please note, the TOD Beneficiary Plan covers the assets in your Brokerage Account upon your death (or the death of the final account holder). Those assets will be distributed to the beneficiary(ies) designated in this TOD Beneficiary Plan Agreement (Agreement) or in subsequent revisions submitted to Scottrade OptionsFirst. The Plan will take precedence over any estate plan established through a will or a trust, so you are advised to consult with your tax and estate planning professionals prior to signing this Agreement.

Designated Beneficiary Plan Terms and Conditions

Please Read This Section Carefully

Amendment of Account Agreement

This Agreement does not replace any of the terms and conditions of your Scottrade OptionsFirst Brokerage Account Agreement and any other agreements between you and Scottrade OptionsFirst that apply to this account, including margin agreements. However, if any of the terms and conditions of this TOD Agreement should conflict with those of any other agreements that apply to your Scottrade OptionsFirst Brokerage Account, as they are amended from time to time, this TOD Agreement will control. Unless otherwise defined, capitalized terms in this TOD Agreement have the same meanings as in the Brokerage Account Agreement.

Limited Availability

Only Scottrade OptionsFirst Brokerage Accounts with Individual, Tenants in Common or Joint Tenants with Rights of Survivorship registrations are eligible for this Plan. Certain accounts, including but not limited to community property accounts and IRA or other retirement accounts, are not eligible for the Plan.

Designation of Beneficiaries

You must designate your beneficiaries in writing on the form provided. Only beneficiaries identified by name will share in the account. The designation of named individuals who may be in the same class as other people (e.g.,children or grandchildren) will not automatically include the other member of the class before or after the date of this Agreement. If it cannot be determined that the beneficiary survived the account holder by 120 hours, the beneficiary will be deemed not to have survived that period.

Changes to Beneficiary Designations

You may change your named beneficiary(ies), change the percentages that you wish to distribute, or revoke your entire TOD Beneficiary Plan at any time in writing. A subsequent beneficiary designation automatically revokes a prior designation of beneficiaries when it becomes effective. In order to be effective, these changes must be made in writing and received by Scottrade OptionsFirst prior to the account holder’s death. Scottrade OptionsFirst will not honor any change of beneficiary made in a will or a trust, except when in receipt of a court order. An attorney-in-fact, conservator or other duly authorized and acting representative of the account holder may change the beneficiary designation only when ordered by the court. The court order must be delivered to Scottrade OptionsFirst.

Changes in the relationship between the account holder(s) and any designated beneficiary, including but not limited to subsequent marriage, dissolution of marriage, remarriage or adoption, will not automatically add or revoke designations of beneficiaries. For example, a former spouse would remain a beneficiary after the dissolution of a marriage unless his or her designation as a beneficiary was expressly revoked in writing and received by Scottrade OptionsFirst.

Payment on Death

Your TOD Beneficiary Plan is not effective until the death of the account holder, tenant in common or for accounts held as Joint Tenants with Rights of Survivorship, until the death of the last surviving account holder. (The surviving account holder may change the beneficiary designation(s)). All assets in your TOD Beneficiary Plan must be held at Scottrade OptionsFirst. Transfers to a beneficiary(ies) include any interest, earnings, dividends, etc. associated with these account assets but not paid or credited before the death of the (last surviving) account holder. Scottrade OptionsFirst has no duty to withhold a transfer based on knowledge of an adverse claim unless written notice is given of that claim that affords Scottrade OptionsFirst reasonable opportunity to act. For a Tenant in Common, only your respective percentage ownership of the assets in the account will be distributed to your designated beneficiary(ies).

It is the responsibility of each beneficiary designated under the Plan to notify Scottrade OptionsFirst of the death of the account holder and to provide:

•A completed TOD Beneficiary Plan Distribution Form, provided by Scottrade OptionsFirst

•Certified copy of the death certificate

•Any additional information or documents as Scottrade OptionsFirst may deem necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion.
