IMPORTANT: Please attach only a copy, not originals, of the title page or fi rst page and all signature pages of the Trust documentation
along with this Application. (Schwab does not have the practice of returning original documents.) Please do not attach the entire Trust
document or any additional pages unless requested by Schwab. Failure to comply with these instructions may delay the account opening
process, as Schwab may require additional signatures and acknowledgment from the Trustee(s).
As you complete this application, please note:
A minimum deposit of $1,000 is required to open a Trust account. The minimum deposit is waived if you open a Schwab Bank
High Yield Investor Checking Trust account or if you establish a monthly transfer of at least $100 through either Direct Deposit or
Schwab MoneyLink®. If you are reregistering an existing Schwab account, the minimum deposit does not apply.
Notarization of Trustee(s) signature is required in Section 15 of the Schwab One Trust Account Application. Exception: Notarization is
not required for Revocable Trusts where all Grantor(s) (the individual(s) establishing and initially funding the Trust), current Trustee(s),
and current Benefi ciary(ies) are the same individual(s), or if you are only adding Schwab One checks or Vis Debit Cards to an
existing Trust Account.
For example, a husband and wife are the Grantors, current Trustees, and current Benefi ciaries; therefore, no notarization is required.
However, when one spouse passes away, the surviving spouse, who is one of the original Grantors and is a current Trustee and
Benefi ciary, will need to have his/her signature notarized.
For a Revocable Trust, attach a copy of the title page or fi rst page and all signature pages of the Trust documentation along with this
Application. All pages of the Certifi cation of Trust, Memorandum of Trust, Af davit of Trust, or Abstract of Trust may be submitted to
satisfy the trust documentation.
For an Irrevocable Trust, attach a copy of the title page or fi rst page and all signature pages of the Trust documentation along with
this Application.
For a Sub-Trust (e.g., Marital Trust, Bypass Trust, or Generation-Skipping Trust), in addition to the requested documentation listed
above, please provide copies of the page(s) of the original Trust document with the provision outlining the creation of the Sub-Trust.
For a Testamentary Trust, Schwab will require copies of the fi rst page and signature page(s) of the Will and evidence that the Will has
been fi led with the court. Schwab will need a copy of the provision within the Will that allows for the establishment of the Testamen-
tary Trust upon the death of the Grantor.
All Trustees must initial and sign the Trustee Certifi cation page in Section 12, sign Section 14, and, if you are applying for a
Schwab Bank High Yield Investor Checking Trust Account, sign Section 5 of the attached application for that account.
Schwab, like all U.S. fi nancial institutions, is required to follow federal regulations to assist the government in its efforts to combat money
laundering and other fi nancial crimes. This Application therefore requests speci c information and documentation in order to verify the
identity of the entity and its Control Persons, Authorized Individuals, and Benefi cial Owners.
Please return pages 1–12 of this form, plus the title and all signature pages of the Trust documentation, using any of the following
methods:

10. Required Information About the Account
Overall Investment Objective(s) of Your Schwab One Brokerage Account (Please select all boxes that apply.)
Capital Preservation. You are seeking to minimize the potential of losing your initial investment.
Income. You are seeking the continued receipt of current income while recognizing and accepting the risks of income-generating investments.
Growth. You are seeking to increase the value of your investments over time while accepting price fl uctuations and volatility.
Speculation. You are willing to assume a higher risk of loss in exchange for potentially higher returns.
Margin
A margin account allows the Trustee to borrow against eligible securities. Margin loans can be used to purchase additional securities, to sell securities
short, to obtain short-term fi nancing, or as a source of overdraft protection. If you select the margin feature, your Trust Agreement must speci cally
authorize the Trustee(s) to establish a margin account. Check below if you do not wish to have the margin feature or if the Trust Agreement does not
authorize margin borrowing.
To learn more about margin, we encourage you to use the educational materials available at www.schwab.com/margin_education.
Margin is automatically included unless you check this box. Do NOT add margin.
Options Trading
If you are converting an existing Schwab One account to a Schwab One Trust account and your account has previously been approved for options trading
and you either have options in your existing account or would like to trade options, all Trustees must complete and sign a new Add Options Trading and
Margin to Your Account form.

ment with Schwab consists of the terms set
forth in this Application Agreement and the
terms set forth in the Schwab One Account
Agreement, which incorporates the Charles
Schwab Pricing Guide and a number of other
important disclosures. The Schwab One Account
Agreement is provided with this application or at
the opening of your account. You agree to
contact Schwab if you do not receive the Schwab
One Account Agreement.
In addition, you may in the future receive from
Schwab supplemental terms or disclosures that
pertain to certain account types, service
features and benefi t packages. These supple-
mental terms and disclosures, this Application
Agreement and the Schwab One Account
Agreement are collectively referred to as the
Agreement and Disclosures.” You agree to read
the Agreement and Disclosures carefully and
retain copies for your records.
Section 2: Acceptance of Agreement and
Disclosures. You agree that the Agreement and
Disclosures govern all aspects of your relation-
ship with Schwab, including all transactions
between Schwab and you, and all products and
services now or in the future offered through
Schwab. Schwab may rely on your use of
Schwab’s products and services as evidence of
your continued acceptance of the Agreement
and Disclosures.
Section 3: Your Representations and Warranties.
You represent and warrant that: (a)you are of
legal age in the state in which you live, and you
are authorized to enter into this Agreement;
(b)you have supplied accurate information in
your Account Application; (c)no additional
authorizations from third parties are required

tions therein; (d)except as you have otherwise
indicated on your Account Application or in
writing to us, (i)you are not an employee of or
af liated with any securities exchange or
member fi rm of any exchange, the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), or any
securities fi rm, bank, trust company, or
insurance company, and (ii)you are not a
director, 10% benefi cial shareholder, policy-making
of cer, or otherwise an “af liate” (as de ned in
Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933) of a
publicly traded company; and (e)this Application
Agreement, as amended from time to time, is a
legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable
against you in accordance with its terms.
Section 4: Account Handling. Schwab will
automatically hold all of your securities
purchased, sales proceeds, dividends and
interest. Schwab will also release your name,
address and securities positions to companies
in which we hold securities for your account
upon request, unless you notify us otherwise in
writing. If you maintain more than one account
at Schwab, you authorize Schwab to transfer
assets between your accounts when no written
authorization is requested.
Section 5: Responsibility for Investment
Decisions. You agree that you and any agent
under a Power of Attorney or Investment Advisor
(if you have one) are solely responsible for
investment decisions in your account, including
whether to buy or sell a particular security.
Unless required by law, or unless Schwab
provides advice to you that is clearly identifi ed
as an individualized recommendation for you,
you understand that Schwab has no obligation
to determine whether a particular transaction,
strategy or purchase or sale of a security is
suitable for you. Your obligation includes an
af rmative duty to monitor profi ts and stay
informed about your account and your invest-
ments and respond to changes as you deem
appropriate.
Unless Schwab otherwise agrees with you in
writing, Schwab does not have any discretionary
authority or obligation to review or make
recommendations for the investment of
securities or cash in your account.
You acknowledge that Schwab does not provide
tax or legal advice.
Section 6: Payment of Indebtedness. You agree
to make payment of any indebtedness related to
your account, including, but not limited to, any
such indebtedness that results from instructions
provided to Schwab by you, your agent or any
attorney-in-fact under a Power of Attorney or by an
Investment Advisor authorized to make transac-
tions in your account. We may elect anytime, with
or without notice, to make any debit balance or
other obligation related to your account immedi-
ately due and payable. We may report any
past-due account to a consumer and/or securities
credit reporting agency. We may also refer your
account to a collection agency.
Section 7: Granting a Lien on Your Accounts.
As security for the repayment of all present or
future indebtedness owed to us by each Account
Holder, each Account Holder grants to us a fi rst,
perfected and prior lien on; a continuing security
interest in; and a right of set-off with respect to
all property that is, now or in the future, held,
carried or maintained for any purpose in or
through Schwab, and, to the extent of such
Account Holder’s interest in or through, any
present or future account with us or our
af liates in which the Account Holder has an
interest. In the event of a breach or default by
you under this Agreement, Schwab will have the
rights and remedies available to a secured credi-
tor under all applicable laws in addition to the
rights and remedies provided in this Agreement.
Section 8: Liquidations. Whenever it is
necessary for our protection or to satisfy a
margin defi ciency, debit or other obligation owed
us, we may (but are not required to) sell, assign
and deliver all or any part of the property
securing your obligations, or close any or all
transactions in your account. We may choose
which property to buy or sell, which transactions
to close and the sequence and timing of
liquidation. We may take such actions on
whatever exchange or market and in whatever
manner (including public auction or private sale)
that we choose in the exercise of our business
judgment. You agree not to hold us liable for the
choice of which property to buy or sell, or which
transactions to close, or for the timing or
manner of liquidation.
In certain circumstances we may, at our sole
discretion, liquidate your entire margin loan
balance to satisfy a margin call. You agree not
to hold us liable for taking such action.
We may transfer property from any non-retirement
brokerage account in which you have an interest
to any other brokerage accounts in which you
have an interest, regardless of whether there
are other account holders on either account,
if we determine that your obligations are not
adequately secured or to satisfy a margin
defi ciency or other obligation. You agree to
pay on demand any account de ciencies after
liquidation, whether liquidation is complete
or partial.
All of the above may be done without demand
for margin or notice of purchase, sale, transfer
or cancellation to you. No demand for margin or
notice shall impose on Schwab any obligation to
make such demand or provide such notice to
you in the future. Any such notice or demand is
hereby expressly waived, and no specifi c
demand or notice shall invalidate this waiver.
Section 9: Interest on Debit Balances. We will
charge and compound interest on your debit
balances (whether in a Margin or Cash Account)
according to our Disclosure of Credit Terms and
Policies.
Section 10: Borrowing Money and Using
Margin. All margin transactions are subject to
our Disclosure of Credit Terms and Policies and
our Margin Borrowing at Schwab: Overview and
Disclosure Statement. You agree not to enter an
order for a margin transaction until you have
read and understood the Disclosure of Credit
Terms and Policies and the “Overview and
Disclosure Statement.
Section 11: Loan Consent. You agree that
property held in your Margin Account, now or in
the future, may be borrowed (either separately
or together with the property of others) by us
(acting as principal) or by others. You agree that
Schwab may receive and retain certain benefi ts
(including, but not limited to, interest on collateral
posted for such loans) to which you will not be
entitled. You acknowledge that, in certain
circumstances, such borrowings could limit your
ability to exercise voting rights or receive
dividends, in whole or in part, with respect to
the property lent. You understand that for
property that is lent by Schwab, the dividends
paid on such property will go to the borrower. No
compensation or other reimbursements will be
due to you in connection with such borrowings.
However, if you are allocated a substitute
payment in lieu of dividends, you understand
that such a payment may not be entitled to the

same tax treatment as may have been applied
to the receipt of a dividend. You agree that
Schwab is not required to compensate you for
any differential tax treatment between dividends
and payments in lieu of dividends. Schwab may
allocate payments in lieu of dividends by any
mechanism permitted by law, including by using
a lottery allocation system.
Section 12: Using the Check & Visa® Platinum
Debit Card Features. If you have requested
check or Visa Debit Card feature through your
account, you authorize checks and Visa Debit
Cards to be issued as indicated in your Account
Application. You agree that each Account Holder
is authorized to write checks and engage in Visa
Debit Card transactions, and you understand
that if the checking feature is terminated, your
Visa Debit Card will be automatically cancelled.
Section 13: Linking Your Account to a Schwab
Bank High Yield Investor Checking® Trust
Account at Schwab Bank. If you link your
account to a High Yield Investor Checking Trust
account held at Schwab Bank, you authorize
Schwab to accept and follow instructions
received from Schwab Bank to transfer funds
from your account to your High Yield Investor
Checking Trust account as set forth in your
Schwab Bank High Yield Investor Checking
Account Application and Schwab Bank Deposit
Account Agreement. The provisions of the
Agreement and Disclosures relating to checks
and debit cards will not apply to the services
received from Schwab Bank.
You authorize Schwab to act as your agent in
processing those instructions from Schwab
Bank. You understand and agree that Schwab
has sole discretion to accept or deny, in whole
or in part, any such instruction. You also agree
that Schwab is not responsible for any errors in
calculation or damages resulting from errors in
calculations or delays in transfers. In no event
will Schwab be liable for any special, indirect or
consequential damages, even if we have been
informed of the possibility of such damages.
You authorize Schwab to act upon your requests
for Real-Time Funds Transfers (as de ned in the
Schwab Bank Deposit Account Agreement) from
Schwab Bank. The maximum amount you may
transfer will be calculated the same way
Schwab calculates the Authorization Limit for
brokerage checkwriting privileges as set forth in
the Schwab One Account Agreement. By
requesting a Real-Time Funds Transfer, you
understand that you may create a margin loan
in your brokerage account that may be subject
to daily interest charges.
In order for transfers to occur, both your High
Yield Investor Checking Trust account and your
account must be open and active and linked
with each other. Target Balance Transfers will be
limited to your Authorization Limit (as described
in the Schwab One Account Agreement),
excluding your Available Margin Loan Value (as
defi ned in the Schwab One Account Agreement).
Overdraft Transfers will be limited to your
Authorization Limit.
If you have a debit balance in your account,
Target Balance Transfers will not be made to
your High Yield Investor Checking Trust account.
Pending securities trades (including the
Automatic Investment Plan [AIP]), pending
debits to your account, and pending transfers of
funds from your account may not be considered
in determining whether funds are available for
transfer from your account to your High Yield
Investor Checking Trust account at Schwab
Bank.
Further, transfers of funds from your account
are subject to Schwab’s minimum deposit
requirements. You and your account may not
have any restrictions preventing Schwab from
using funds in your account to satisfy a transfer
instruction from Schwab Bank. If your account
becomes subject to a restriction, your eligibility
for this feature may be revoked and you
understand that Schwab Bank may close your
High Yield Investor Checking Trust account.
Transfers to Schwab Bank may result in debits
in your account. You acknowledge that you are
responsible for all debits (and interest on debits)
in your account, as described in further detail in
the Agreement and Disclosures. Your account
remains an obligation solely of Schwab. Likewise,
your High Yield Investor Checking Trust account
remains an obligation solely of Schwab Bank.
Section 14: Veri cation. You authorize Schwab
to inquire from any source, including a consumer
reporting agency, as to your identity (as required
by federal law), creditworthiness and ongoing
eligibility for the account (and that of your
spouse, if you live in a community property
state) at account opening, at any time through-
out the life of the account, and thereafter for
debt collection or investigative purposes.
Section 15: Required Arbitration Disclosures.
Regulatory authorities require that any brokerage
agreement containing a predispute arbitration
agreement must disclose that this agreement
contains a predispute arbitration clause. This
Agreement contains a predispute arbitration
clause. By signing an arbitration agreement, the
parties agree as follows:
All parties to this Agreement are giving up the
right to sue each other in court, including the
right to a trial by jury, except as provided by the
rules of the arbitration forum in which a claim
i s  l e d .
Arbitration awards are generally  nal and
binding; a party’s ability to have a court reverse
or modify an arbitration award is very limited.
The ability of the parties to obtain documents,
witness statements and other discovery is
generally more limited in arbitration than in
court proceedings.
The arbitrators do not have to explain the
reason(s) for their award unless, in an eligible
case, a joint request for an explained decision
has been submitted by all parties to the panel
at least 20 days prior to the  rst scheduled
hearing date.
The panel of arbitrators will typically include
a minority of arbitrators who were or are
af liated with the securities industry.
The rules of some arbitration forums may
impose time limits for bringing a claim in
arbitration. In some cases, a claim that is
ineligible for arbitration may be brought
in court.
The rules of the arbitration forum in which the
claim is  led, and any amendments thereto,
shall be incorporated into this Agreement.
No person shall bring a putative or certi ed
class action to arbitration, nor seek to enforce
any predispute arbitration agreement against
any person who has initiated in court a putative
class action; or who is a member of a putative
class who has not opted out of the class with
respect to any claims encompassed by the
putative class action until:
1. the class certi cation is denied;
2. the class is decerti ed; or
3. the customer is excluded from the class
by the court.
Such forbearance to enforce an agreement to
arbitrate shall not constitute a waiver of any
rights under this Agreement except to the extent
stated herein.
Section 16: Arbitration Agreement. Any
controversy or claim arising out of or relating to
(i)this Agreement, any other agreement with
Schwab, an instruction or authorization provided
to Schwab or the breach of any such agree-
ments, instructions, or authorizations; (ii)the
Account, any other Schwab account or Services;
(iii)transactions in the Account or any other
Schwab account; (iv)or in any way arising from
the relationship with Schwab, its parent,
subsidiaries, af liates, of cers, directors,
employees, agents or service providers (“Related
Third Parties”), including any controversy over the
arbitrability of a dispute, will be settled by
arbitration.
This arbitration agreement will be binding upon
and inure to the bene t of the parties hereto and
their respective representatives, attorneys-in-fact,
heirs, successors, assigns and any other persons
having or claiming to have a legal or bene cial
interest in the Account, including court-appointed
trustees and receivers. This arbitration agree-
ment will also inure to the bene t of third-party
service providers that assist Schwab in providing
Services (“Third-Party Service Providers”) and
such Third-Party Service Providers are deemed
to be third-party bene ciaries of this arbitration
agreement.
The parties agree that this arbitration agreement
will apply even if the application to open the
Account is denied and will survive the closure of
your Account and/or the termination of services
rendered under this Agreement.
Such arbitration will be conducted by, and
according to the securities arbitration rules
and regulations then in effect of, the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) or any
national securities exchange that provides a
forum for the arbitration of disputes, provided
that Schwab is a member of such national
securities exchange at the time the arbitration
is initiated. Any party may initiate arbitration by
ling a written claim with FINRA or such eligible
national securities exchange. If arbitration before
FINRA or an eligible national securities exchange
is unavailable or impossible for any reason,
then such arbitration will be conducted by, and
according to the rules and regulations then in
effect of, the American Arbitration Association
(AAA). If arbitration before the AAA is unavail-
able or impossible for any reason, the parties
agree to have a court of competent jurisdiction
appoint three (3) arbitrators to resolve any and
all disputes or controversies between or among
the parties. Each party shall bear its own initial

arbitration costs, which are determined by the
rules and regulations of the arbitration forum.
In the event of  nancial hardship, the arbitration
forum may waive certain costs in accordance
with such rules. At the conclusion of the hearing,
the arbitrators will decide how to assess the
costs of the arbitration among the parties.
Any award the arbitrator makes shall be  nal
and binding, and judgment on it may be entered
in any court having jurisdiction. This arbitration
agreement shall be enforced and interpreted
exclusively in accordance with applicable federal
laws of the United States, including the Federal
Arbitration Act. Any costs, fees or taxes involved
in enforcing the award shall be fully assessed
against and paid by the party resisting enforce-
ment of said award.
For FINRA arbitrations, FINRA will appoint a
single public arbitrator in customer cases
decided by one arbitrator. In customer cases
decided by three arbitrators, investors have the
option of choosing an arbitration panel with two
public arbitrators and one non-public arbitrator
(Majority-Public Panel Rule) or a panel of all
public arbitrators (Optional All-Public Panel Rule).
If the customer declines to elect a panel
selection method in writing by the applicable
deadline, the Majority-Public Panel Rule for
selecting arbitrators will apply.
All notices from one party to the other involving
arbitration shall be considered to have been
fully given when so served, mailed by  rst-class,
certi ed or registered mail, or otherwise given
by other commercially accepted medium of
written noti cation.
In addition to the above provisions, if a party
to this Agreement is or becomes a non-U.S.
resident at the time of any controversy subject
to this arbitration agreement, such party
acknowledges and agrees to the following
additional provisions:
(1) The rules of the organization administering
the arbitration speci cally provide for the
formal designation of the place at which the
arbitration is to be held.
(2) Entering into this Agreement constitutes
consent to submit to the personal jurisdiction
of the courts of the state of California, U.S.A.,
to interpret or enforce any or all of these
arbitration provisions. Judgment on any
arbitration award may be entered in any
court having jurisdiction, or application may
be made to such court for judicial acceptance
of the award and an order of enforcement,
as the case may be.
(3) The exclusive language to be used by the
parties and the arbitrators in the arbitration
proceedings shall be English. Any party
wishing an interpreter shall make all
arrangements directly with the interpreter
and shall assume all costs of the service.
(4) If a party is a foreign government or state,
state-owned or state-operated enterprise or
other instrumentality of a foreign government
or state, such party waives all rights of
sovereign immunity and neither the Federal
Act of State doctrine nor the doctrine of
sovereign immunity shall apply insofar as any
enforcement in courts located in the U.S.A.
is concerned.
Section 17: Electronic Copies. The electroni-
cally stored copy of your (or your agent’s)
signature, any written instructions or authoriza-
tions, the Account Application and the Agree-
ment and Disclosures is considered to be the
true, complete, valid, authentic and enforceable
record, admissible in judicial, administrative or
arbitration proceedings to the same extent as if
the documents and records were originally
generated and maintained in printed form. You
agree to not contest the admissibility or
enforceability of Schwab’s electronically stored
copy of such documents in any proceeding
between you and Schwab.
Section 18: Unclaimed Property. If no activity
occurs in the Account within the time period
specifi ed by applicable state law, the Account
may be transferred to the appropriate state.
Section 19: Information About SIPC. To obtain
information about Securities Investor Protection
Corporation (SIPC), including an explanatory
SIPC brochure, please contact SIPC at

Section 20: Impartial Lottery for Securities
Subject to Partial Call or Partial Redemption.
If Schwab holds securities for you in street
name, in Schwab’s name, or in bearer form that
are subject to partial call or partial redemption,
then in the case of a partial call or partial
redemption Schwab will use an impartial lottery

securities. For a description of Schwab’s lottery

For your Schwab One brokerage account:

Telephoning immediately is the best way of minimizing your possible losses.
Losses could include the money in your account plus, in the case of
your Schwab Bank High Yield Investor Checking account, any advances
or transfers from an overdraft source linked to your account. If unauthorized
activity occurs, you agree to cooperate during the investigation and to
complete any report or af davit we may request.
Also, if your statement shows transfers that you didnt make or authorize,
tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the statement was
mailed to you, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days
if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the
money if you had told us in time. If a good reason kept you from telling
us (such as a long trip or hospital stay), we will extend the time periods.
Disclosure of Account Information. We may disclose your name and/or
information about your account or your transactions to our agents and
af liates in order to facilitate your transfer requests. We may also
disclose such information to third parties in certain circumstances,
which may include: (a) to banks and other entities that are involved with
the products or services we offer or arrange on behalf of customers;
(b) when it’s requested by a third party to complete a transaction; (c) to
verify the existence or condition of your account for a credit bureau or
merchant; (d) to comply with a subpoena, court order or request from
a government agency or law enforcement authority; (e) to evaluate your
creditworthiness or our ability to collect any debt you owe us; or (f) if
you give us your permission.
In addition, for your Schwab One brokerage account, Schwab may disclose
such information (a) to mutual funds that are involved with the products
or services we offer or arrange on behalf of customers and (b) pursuant to
Rule 14b-1 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, to companies
in which you hold securities, unless we receive your written objection.
Periodic Statements. Schwab will send you a monthly account statement
for your Schwab One brokerage account unless there are no transfers in a
particular month. In any case, you will get the statement at least quarterly.
Schwab Bank will send you a monthly statement for your Schwab Bank
High Yield Investor Checking account unless there is no account activity
other than the posting of interest. We will send you a statement at least
quarterly, even if there is no activity in your account.
All electronic funds transfers posted to your account during the month
are listed on your statement.
Our Liability for Failure to Make Transfers. If we do not complete a
transfer to or from your account on time or in the correct amount according
to our agreement with you, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
However, there are some exceptions. We are not liable, for instance, if:
Through no fault of ours, you do not have enough money in your
account to make the transfer.
In the case of your Schwab Bank High Yield Investor Checking
account, the transfer would exceed the funds available under your
overdraft protection option, if any.
Your account is restricted (because of a court order or similar
reason), and we are not permitted to make the transaction.
Circumstances beyond our control (such as re or ood) prevent the
transfer, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken.
Any Automated Clearing House network or other third-party
communication system from which we require information to
complete transactions was not working properly.
There may be other exceptions permitted by law.
In Case of Errors or Questions About Your Electronic Funds Transfers.
If you think your statement is wrong or if you need more information about
a transfer listed on the statement, call or write us as soon as you can:
For your Schwab One brokerage account:

Write: Charles Schwab Bank
P.O. Box 982605
El Paso, TX 79998

We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent the FIRST
statement on which the problem or error appeared.
We need the following information:
your name and account number
a description of the error or the transfer you are unsure about
a clear explanation of why you believe it is an error or why you need
more information and
the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your complaint or
question in writing within 10 business days.
We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days after
we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more
time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate your complaint
or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10
business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the
use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation.
If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not
receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account.
For errors involving new accounts, point-of-sale or foreign-initiated
transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint
or question. For new accounts, we may take up to 20 business days to
credit your account for the amount you think is in error.
We will tell you the results within three business days after completing
our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a

This is important information regarding margin borrowing, if you have requested the margin feature on your brokerage account.
Please retain this document for your fi les.
When using margin, please keep these important rules and conditions in mind.
A complete list of terms and conditions pertaining to margin trading and short selling, including credit terms and policies, can be
found in the Account Agreement. The Account Agreement will be provided to you after account opening or you can access it at any
time on our website or by calling us. Please read this important document before opening a margin account.
For questions regarding margin borrowing, please contact us at the numbers listed above. For clients of independent investment
advisors, please call your advisor directly or call Schwab Alliance at 1-800-515-2157.
When considering a margin loan, you should determine how the use
of margin fi ts your own investment philosophy. It is important that you
fully understand the risks, rules, and requirements involved in trading
securities on margin.
The following paragraphs highlight some of the critical aspects of
margin trading:
Margin trading increases your level of market risk. Margin trading
increases your buying power, allowing you to purchase a greater amount
of securities with your investing dollar. Therefore, your exposure to
market volatility increases—a declining market could result in even
greater losses. A decline in the value of your securities that you
purchase on margin may require you to provide additional funds to
Schwab in order to avoid the forced sale of those securities or other
securities in your account.
Your downside is not limited to the collateral value in your margin
account. When you buy securities on margin, you are borrowing money
from Schwab for part of your transactions. Securities and other assets
in your Schwab account(s) are pledged as collateral to secure this
loan. These margin transactions are riskier and involve the possibility
of greater loss than transactions where you are not borrowing money.
If the securities in your account decline in value, so does the value of
the collateral supporting your loan. When the value of the collateral
falls below the maintenance margin requirements, or Schwab’s higher
“house” requirements, Schwab can move to protect its position. In
order to cover margin defi ciencies, Schwab may issue you a margin
call—a request for additional cash—or sell securities from your account.
If a sale does not cover the de ciency, you will be responsible for
any shortfall.
Schwab may initiate the sale of any securities in your account, without
contacting you, to meet a margin call. Schwab will attempt to involve
you in the case of margin de ciency; however, market conditions may
require the rm to quickly sell any of your securities without your consent.
Because the securities are collateral for the margin loan, Schwab has the
right to decide which security to sell in order to protect its interests. Even
if Schwab has contacted you and provided a speci c date by which you
can meet a margin call, the fi rm can still take necessary steps to protect
its nancial interests, including immediately selling the securities without
prior notice to you.
Schwab’s house” initial and maintenance margin requirements may
exceed those established by the Federal Reserve Board and/or the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. Please call Schwab for
current margin requirements.
Schwab may change its initial margin requirements at any time and
without prior notice. We may also impose anytime and without prior
notice more stringent requirements on positions that in our sole
discretion involve higher levels of risk; for example, higher limits
may apply for thinly traded, speculative or volatile securities, or
concentrated positions of securities.
Schwab may increase its “house” maintenance margin requirements
at any time and is not required to provide you with advance written
notice. Changes in Schwab’s policy regarding “house” maintenance
margin requirements often take effect immediately and may result in
the issuance of a maintenance margin call. Your failure to satisfy the
call may cause Schwab to liquidate or sell securities in your account.
Schwab retains absolute discretion to determine whether, when and in
what amounts we will require additional collateral. For example, we may
require additional collateral if an account contains only one security or
a large concentration of one or more securities; or low-priced, thinly
traded or volatile securities; or if some of your collateral is or becomes
restricted or non-negotiable or non-marginable. We may also consider
market conditions, your fi nancial resources, or other factors deemed by
us to be relevant given the circumstances at the time.
You are not entitled to an extension of time on a margin call. While
an extension of time to meet margin requirements may be available to
customers under certain conditions, a customer does not have a right
to the extension.
Some accounts that carry a margin loan balance and hold dividend-
paying securities may receive a “substitute income payment in lieu of
a dividend” (PIL). This payment may be taxable as ordinary income.
Taxable accounts that receive a PIL instead of a qualifi ed dividend may
also receive a supplemental credit from Schwab. This will be identifi ed
on customer statements as a Schwab substitute income credit.”
However, when Schwab can identify that a dividend is nonquali ed,
we will not credit your account with this additional payment.
This credit is NOT “payment in lieu,” and is unrelated to any payment
from either the security issuer or the borrower.
It is a discretionary credit from Schwab which may be discontinued
in the future with or without notice.*
It may be subject to tax at your ordinary income tax rate. Please
consult your tax advisor about your speci c tax situation.
Because individual tax situations differ, Schwab cannot precisely
calculate the additional tax costs a client might incur. Therefore,
we do not intend, nor should clients expect, for this payment to be
an exact reimbursement of any excess tax cost.
*Please refer to the Loan Consent section of your Account Agreement
which states that no compensation is due in connection with such loans
and that Schwab is not required to compensate you for any differential
tax treatment between dividends and payments in lieu of dividends.

The automatic investment of your free credit balance, including the frequency and the amount of each sweep,
is governed by the terms and conditions set forth in the Cash Features Disclosure Statement and in the Account
Agreement applicable to your account. The material in this document is intended for informational purposes only.
If there is any con ict between the descriptions in this document and the terms of your Account Agreement, your
Account Agreement will control.
How the Cash
Features Program
Works
Schwabs Cash Features Program is the service (described in the Cash Features Disclosure
Statement) that we provide to automatically invest, or sweep,” the Free Credit Balance in
your account into a liquid investment to earn interest. The program permits you to earn income
while you decide how those funds should be invested longer term.
Available Cash
Feature
The available cash features currently consist of:
Interest payments by Schwab on the Free Credit Balance in your eligible account (the
“Schwab One
®
Interest feature”);
Interest-bearing Deposit Accounts at our af liated bank, Schwab Bank (the Bank Sweep
feature,” which consists of the “Schwab Bank Sweep feature” and the “Schwab Bank Sweep
for Benefi t Plans feature”); and
For some accounts, one or more af liated money market mutual funds (the Money Fund
Sweep feature”).
Eligibility Eligibility for each cash feature is based on the registered ownership and the type of account.
Not all account registrations and account types will be eligible for all cash features. Some
account registrations and account types will be eligible for only one cash feature. Please see
your Account Application and the Cash Features Disclosure Statement for more complete
eligibility details.
Duty to Monitor
Eligibility for Cash
Features
It is your responsibility to monitor your eligibility for the cash features and determine the best
cash feature available to you. Schwab is not responsible for contacting you if you are, or later
become, eligible for other higher-yielding cash features.
Interest Rates and
Yields
The interest rates and yields for the different cash features vary over time. Current interest
rates and yields can be obtained by contacting your independent investment advisor or your
Financial Consultant, or by calling us at 1-800-435-4000. If you already have an account,
you can visit our website at www.schwab.com/cash. If your account is an Advisor Services
account, please contact your advisor, visit www.schwab.com/SA_cash, or call Schwab Alliance
at 1-800-515-2157.
The interest rate on the Schwab One Interest feature is set by Schwab. We may seek to
pay as low a rate as possible consistent with our views of competitive necessities. With
certain exceptions, the rate will be tiered based upon the overall Household Balance of your
account(s).
The interest rate on the Schwab Bank Sweep feature is set by Schwab Bank, which may seek
to pay as low a rate as possible consistent with its views of competitive necessities. With
certain exceptions, the rate will be tiered based upon account type and the overall household
value of your account(s) with Schwab and Schwab Bank.
The interest rate on the Schwab Bank Sweep for Bene t Plans feature is set by Schwab
Bank, which intends to pay interest consistent with reasonable rate provisions of applicable
legal and regulatory authority. Interest rates do not vary by tiers and do not vary based on
householding of assets.

Interest Rates and
Yields
(Continued)
Money market mutual funds offered through the Money Fund Sweep feature seek to achieve
the highest yield (less fees and expenses) consistent with prudence and their investment
objectives.
Cash features are not intended to be long-term investments. If you desire to maintain cash
balances for other than a short-term period and/or are seeking the highest yields currently
available in the market, please contact your Schwab representative or visit www.schwab
.com/cash for investment options that may be available outside of the Cash Features Program
to help maximize your return potential consistent with your investment objectives and risk
tolerance. If your account is an Advisor Services account, please contact your advisor, visit
www.schwab.com/SA_cash, or call Schwab Alliance at 1-800-515-2157.
Bene ts to Schwab We may charge fees and receive certain benefi ts under the different cash features. A portion
of these fees and benefi ts may be shared with your investment professional. Because of these
fees and benefi ts, we have a fi nancial incentive to select the particular cash features included
in the Cash Features Program.
Differing Risks and
Account Protection
The different cash features are subject to different risks and account protection:
The Schwab One
®
Interest feature is not subject to market risk and value loss but is subject
to the risk of Schwab’s failure. In the unlikely event that Schwab fails, cash is eligible for
SIPC coverage up to a limit of $250,000 (including principal and interest) per client in each
insurable capacity (e.g., individual or joint). Free Credit Balances held at Schwab are not
insured or guaranteed by the FDIC.
The Bank Sweep feature, which includes the Schwab Bank Sweep feature and the Schwab
Bank Sweep for Benefi t Plans feature, is not subject to market risk and value loss but is
subject to the risk of Schwab Banks failure. In the unlikely event that Schwab Bank fails,
deposits at Schwab Bank are eligible for FDIC insurance protection up to a limit of $250,000
(including principal and interest) per depositor in each insurable capacity (e.g., individual,
joint, and plan participant). This limit includes any other deposits you may have at Schwab
Bank outside of the Bank Sweep feature. You are responsible for monitoring your bank
balances in the Bank Sweep feature and the balances in any of your other bank accounts at
Schwab Bank to determine if these, in total, exceed FDIC insurance limits. Monies held in
the Bank Sweep feature are not covered by SIPC.
Money market mutual funds in the Money Fund Sweep feature invest in high-quality, short-
term securities and seek to maintain a stable value, but are subject to market risks and
potential value loss. They are not bank accounts and are not subject to FDIC insurance
protection. They are instead covered by SIPC, which protects against the custodial risk
(and not a decline in market value) when a brokerage rm fails by replacing missing securities
and cash up to a limit of $500,000, of which $250,000 may be cash. Shares held through the
Money Fund Sweep feature are not considered cash, but are treated as securities for SIPC
coverage.

Records and Disclosures Included in Schwab and Schwab Bank’s
Paperless Documents Program
Tax Forms (“eTax Documents”)
A tax document provides important information you need to complete

is also reported to the IRS. This includes any corrected tax documents
and accompanying notices. When your tax documents are ready, we

conditions of your transaction will appear in the email and on a web
page you can link to from the email. Your consent to receive Paperless

transactions conducted, other activity in your account, and terms and
conditions governing your account. Account statements are sent at

or at the end of each calendar quarter, regardless of any account
activity. With your account statements, we often include accompanying
account-related notices and other regulatory information including, but
not limited to, Schwab’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition,
pricing changes, privacy policy, annual notices and amendments to your
account agreements, and any other required regulatory documents
and disclosures. At account opening and from time to time thereafter,
we also send you noti cations about your account. Collectively, we call
these notices and documents “account-related documents.” When
you consent to Paperless account statements, you also consent to
Paperless account-related documents.
Investment Advisory Service Disclosures (A Sub-Category of
Account-Related Documents)
Your consent to account statements and other account-related
documents includes investment advisory program disclosures, brochure
supplements with information about individual Schwab representatives,
and related materials such as periodic updates or annual summaries of
any changes to those documents (Form ADV Disclosures”), as Schwab
makes these available in the future. The investment advisory programs
may include Schwab Private Client, Schwab Managed Portfolios™,
Schwab Managed Account Services, the Schwab Advisor Network
®
,
Schwab Intelligent Portfolios
®
, and other similar advisory services, and
fee-based Financial Planning Services. In addition to Schwabs and its
af liates’ own Form ADV Disclosures, your consent also covers Form
ADV Disclosures from third-party investment advisors whose services
you select through Schwab. Paperless Form ADV Disclosures may
accompany your account statements or be sent independently. If the third
party does not make its Form ADV Disclosures available electronically,
you will instead receive the standard printed materials by postal mail.
Shareholder Materials (“Electronic Delivery”)
Shareholder materials include regulatory information such as
prospectuses; prospectus supplements; quarterly, semi-annual,
and annual reports; and proxy materials. You will receive an email
noti cation with a web link to shareholder materials if you have
a position in an equity or mutual fund as of the record date for a
particular shareholder distribution and the materials are made
available electronically by the issuer or third party. If the issuer or third
party does not make shareholder materials available electronically,
you will instead receive the standard printed materials by postal mail.
By providing your consent to receive electronic delivery of shareholder
material, you also consent to electronic householding. This means
that if you and someone else enroll in this Paperless service using the
same email address, we may send one email announcement to this
email address if each account holds securities of the same issuer.
This avoids duplicate mailings of shareholder documents. If you no
longer want electronic householding of your shareholder materials,
you must modify your Paperless Documents enrollment as described
above. Your shareholder materials may include electronic proxies.
You may elect to vote your proxy online at proxyvote.com by entering
the control number included in your email announcement and the last
four digits of your Social Security number or Taxpayer Identi cation
Number as your PIN.
Addendum for Schwab Bank Paperless Statements
(“eStatements”)
The above information regarding the purpose and effect of your
consent; how to request paper or ask questions; how to withdraw
consent; electronic noti cation when your statement is ready; keeping
your email address current; hardware and software requirements; and
security and privacy information are all applicable to Schwab Bank
accounts. Paperless Documents include account statements and tax
forms. Account statements for your Investor Checking account(s),
Investor Savings account(s), and Pledged Asset Line
®
account(s) provide
important information about your accounts, including the account
balance, the transactions conducted, other activity in your accounts,
and other information, terms, and conditions governing your accounts.
With your Schwab Bank account statements, we often include
accompanying account-related notices and other regulatory information
including disclosures such as annual notices and amendments to
your account agreements (collectively, “Account Statement Inserts).
By consenting to Paperless Delivery of account statements for your
Bank account(s), you also consent to Paperless Delivery of Account
Statement Inserts.

This is important information regarding margin borrowing, if you have requested the margin feature on your brokerage account.
Please retain this document for your les.
When using margin, please keep these important rules and conditions in mind.
A complete list of terms and conditions pertaining to margin trading and short selling, including credit terms and policies, can be
found in the Account Agreement. The Account Agreement will be provided to you after account opening or you can access it at any
time on our website or by calling us. Please read this important document before opening a margin account.
For questions regarding margin borrowing, please contact us at the numbers listed above. For clients of independent investment
advisors, please call your advisor directly or call Schwab Alliance at 1-800-515-2157.
When considering a margin loan, you should determine how the use
of margin ts your own investment philosophy. It is important that you
fully understand the risks, rules, and requirements involved in trading
securities on margin.
The following paragraphs highlight some of the critical aspects of
margin trading:
Margin trading increases your level of market risk. Margin trading
increases your buying power, allowing you to purchase a greater amount
of securities with your investing dollar. Therefore, your exposure to
market volatility increases—a declining market could result in even
greater losses. A decline in the value of your securities that you
purchase on margin may require you to provide additional funds to
Schwab in order to avoid the forced sale of those securities or other
securities in your account.
Your downside is not limited to the collateral value in your margin
account. When you buy securities on margin, you are borrowing money
from Schwab for part of your transactions. Securities and other assets
in your Schwab account(s) are pledged as collateral to secure this
loan. These margin transactions are riskier and involve the possibility
of greater loss than transactions where you are not borrowing money.
If the securities in your account decline in value, so does the value of
the collateral supporting your loan. When the value of the collateral
falls below the maintenance margin requirements, or Schwab’s higher
“house” requirements, Schwab can move to protect its position. In
order to cover margin deciencies, Schwab may issue you a margin
call—a request for additional cash—or sell securities from your account.
If a sale does not cover the deciency, you will be responsible for
any shortfall.
Schwab may initiate the sale of any securities in your account, without
contacting you, to meet a margin call. Schwab will attempt to involve
you in the case of margin deciency; however, market conditions may
require the rm to quickly sell any of your securities without your consent.
Because the securities are collateral for the margin loan, Schwab has the
right to decide which security to sell in order to protect its interests. Even
if Schwab has contacted you and provided a specic date by which you
can meet a margin call, the rm can still take necessary steps to protect
its nancial interests, including immediately selling the securities without
prior notice to you.
Schwab’s “house” initial and maintenance margin requirements may
exceed those established by the Federal Reserve Board and/or the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. Please call Schwab for
current margin requirements.
Schwab may change its initial margin requirements at any time and
without prior notice. We may also impose anytime and without prior
notice more stringent requirements on positions that in our sole
discretion involve higher levels of risk; for example, higher limits
may apply for thinly traded, speculative or volatile securities, or
concentrated positions of securities.
Schwab may increase its “house” maintenance margin requirements
at any time and is not required to provide you with advance written
notice. Changes in Schwab’s policy regarding “house” maintenance
margin requirements often take effect immediately and may result in
the issuance of a maintenance margin call. Your failure to satisfy the
call may cause Schwab to liquidate or sell securities in your account.
Schwab retains absolute discretion to determine whether, when and in
what amounts we will require additional collateral. For example, we may
require additional collateral if an account contains only one security or
a large concentration of one or more securities; or low-priced, thinly
traded or volatile securities; or if some of your collateral is or becomes
restricted or non-negotiable or non-marginable. We may also consider
market conditions, your nancial resources, or other factors deemed by
us to be relevant given the circumstances at the time.
You are not entitled to an extension of time on a margin call. While
an extension of time to meet margin requirements may be available to
customers under certain conditions, a customer does not have a right
to the extension.
Some accounts that carry a margin loan balance and hold dividend-
paying securities may receive a “substitute income payment in lieu of
a dividend” (PIL). This payment may be taxable as ordinary income.
Taxable accounts that receive a PIL instead of a qualied dividend may
also receive a supplemental credit from Schwab. This will be identied
on customer statements as a “Schwab substitute income credit.”
However, when Schwab can identify that a dividend is nonqualied,
we will not credit your account with this additional payment.
This credit is NOT “payment in lieu,” and is unrelated to any payment
from either the security issuer or the borrower.
It is a discretionary credit from Schwab which may be discontinued
in the future with or without notice.*
It may be subject to tax at your ordinary income tax rate. Please
consult your tax advisor about your specic tax situation.
Because individual tax situations differ, Schwab cannot precisely
calculate the additional tax costs a client might incur. Therefore,
we do not intend, nor should clients expect, for this payment to be
an exact reimbursement of any excess tax cost.
*Please refer to the Loan Consent section of your Account Agreement
which states that no compensation is due in connection with such loans
and that Schwab “is not required to compensate you for any differential
tax treatment between dividends and payments in lieu of dividends.”
Independent investment advisors are not owned by, afliated with, or supervised by Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”).

Authorization to Transfer and Account Holder Signature(s)
To Delivering Firm: Unless otherwise indicated in the instructions in Sections 36, please transfer all assets in my
account to Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab).
I understand that to the extent any assets in my account are not readily transferable, with or without penalties, such
assets may not be transferred within the time frames required by FINRA Rule 11870 or a similar rule of another
designated examining authority. Unless otherwise indicated in the instructions in Sections 36, I authorize you to liquidate
any nontransferable proprietary money market fund assets that are part of my account, and transfer the resulting
credit balance to the successor custodian.
I understand that you will contact me with respect to the disposition of any other assets in my securities account that
are non-transferable. I authorize you to deduct any outstanding fees due you from the credit balance in my account.
If my account does not contain a credit balance, or if the credit balance in the account is insufcient to satisfy any
outstanding fees due you, I authorize you to liquidate the assets in my account to the extent necessary to satisfy that
obligation. If certicates or other instruments in my account are in your physical possession, I instruct you to transfer
them in good deliverable form, including afxing any necessary tax waivers, to enable the successor custodian to transfer
them in their name for the purpose of sale, when and as directed by me. I understand that upon receiving a copy of this
transfer instruction, you will cancel all open orders for my account on your books.
I afrm that I have destroyed or returned to you credit/debit cards and/or unused checks issued to me in connection with
my securities account.
For Retirement Accounts: If this transfer of account is for a qualied retirement account, I have amended the
applicable plan so that it names Schwab as successor custodian. If this transfer of account is for an IRA, I hereby adopt
or reafrm my adoption of the Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. Individual Retirement Plan. If I am transferring an IRA and the
IRA type indicated on my statement is different from the IRA I currently maintain at Schwab (e.g., Traditional IRA vs.
Rollover IRA), I hereby authorize Schwab to commingle my IRA assets.
Fees: If the assets I am transferring are considered nonstandard assets at Schwab (such as limited partnerships),
I understand that I will be charged set-up and maintenance fees.
I understand that fractional shares of stock are nontransferable, and I agree that any fractional shares will be liquidated by
the delivering rm upon the transfer of the whole shares. The delivering rm may or may not charge a fee for this liquidation.
I understand that the delivering rm may or may not assess account fees for the transfer and/or termination of my
account with them.

Transfer Your Account to Schwab | Page 4 of 5
Mutual Fund Dividends and Capital Gains (Account Transfers Via ACAT Only): I understand that my delivering broker
may provide Schwab with mutual fund dividends and capital gains distribution instructions for each mutual fund
position so that Schwab may implement these instructions. If the same position is already held in my Schwab account,
the dividend instructions will default to the current Schwab choice. In the event that the instructions are not provided
by the delivering broker or the dividend and/or capital gains distribution option requested is not available at Schwab,
the instructions will default to reinvest (unless reinvestment isnt available, in which case dividends and capital gains
will be paid in cash).
Liquidations: I understand that buying and selling securities during the account transfer process may complicate and
delay my transfer. Some rms may even “freeze” an account that is in the process of being transferred, meaning that no
trades will be permitted until the transfer is complete. As a result, I should avoid trading during the transfer process.
If I am concerned about not being able to sell my stock during the transfer process, I should consider selling my stock
and waiting until I have received the proceeds before entering the transfer request.
Cost Basis: I understand that Schwab will update my account with the cost basis information provided on a transfer
statement by a delivering rm. Because the accuracy of cost basis data depends upon these third-party statements,
Schwab is not able to guarantee the availability, accuracy, or completeness of such cost basis data. It is my obligation
to conrm the accuracy of the information Schwab receives from the delivering rm by visiting Schwab.com or
calling Schwab. Cost basis information is intended for residents of the U.S. It may not be available or appropriate for
customers who reside outside the U.S.
Name Discrepancies: All account holders or authorized signers of the account(s) listed in Sections 1 and 2 of this
form must sign below. If an account holder’s name appears differently on either account, the owner must sign the
form using all name variations (e.g., maiden name and married name). If there is a name variation, Schwab may
require additional documentation before accepting the account, such as a marriage certicate or a divorce decree.
Registration Discrepancies: All account holders or authorized signers of the account(s) listed in Sections 1 and
2 of this form must sign below. By signing below, I/we acknowledge the existence of any differences in account
owners and/or account type between the account being transferred into Schwab and the Schwab account. Each
individual who signs below is aware of these discrepancies and authorizes Schwab to accept the transfer of assets

Visit Schwab.com for a status update on your transfer or to initiate your transfer online.
To transfer funds from one Schwab account to another, go to the Transfer and Payments tab on Schwab.com or use the Letter of
Authorization (LOA) Transfer Assets Between Schwab Accounts form.
To obtain additional forms, visit Schwab.com or call 1-800-435-4000.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Schwab will not accept or honor any oral or written instructions from
you to purchase or sell securities with the proceeds of the cash and/or
transferred securities before we have actual receipt of your assets and
the transfer process is complete.
If you want dividend reinvestment on your stocks, you will need to call
1-800-435-4000 after your transfer is complete.
If dividend reinvestment is not available for your mutual fund shares,
Schwab will automatically pay all future dividends and capital gains
distributions in cash. Requests to sell mutual fund positions are
dependent upon the delivering rm receiving and processing the
request and may take several weeks to complete.
If your fund is not transferable as shares, you may consider initiating a
redemption at the fund company and request that they deliver cash to
your Schwab account for a faster transfer.
If the account you are transferring holds pooled investments such as
hedge funds, funds of funds, private equity, limited partnerships, REITs,
or any other Alternative Investments, please contact our AI Service
team at 1-877-201-2985.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How long will it take?
Depending on the type of securities, a typical transfer will take
approximately three weeks. However, some may take up to six weeks
or even longer.
Please remember that while we make every effort to ensure a swift
transfer, the actual transfer time depends on how quickly securities
are liquidated and released or transferred by the nancial institution
currently holding your investments.
Will I be charged a fee?
An exit fee may be charged by your previous nancial institution upon
receiving your transfer request. A wire fee may also be charged by your
previous nancial institution to transfer to Schwab.
Fractional shares of stock are nontransferable, and any fractional
shares will be liquidated by the delivering rm upon the transfer of
the whole shares. The delivering rm may or may not charge a fee for
this liquidation.
If the assets you are transferring are considered nonstandard assets
at Schwab (such as limited partnerships), there will be set-up and
maintenance fees.
Are my funds transferable?
Schwab can transfer over 6,000 different mutual funds. Some nancial
rms issue their own (proprietary) mutual funds, and these funds
typically cannot be transferred to any rm. Also, there are some mutual
fund companies with whom Schwab has not established an agreement
with the fund issuer to hold a particular mutual fund. If the mutual fund
cannot be transferred, then you may be notied by mail.
How do I sell assets prior to transfer?
If there are assets that need to be sold before being transferred to Schwab,
please instruct the delivering rm to sell assets in your brokerage
or trust company account and cancel dividend reinvestment prior
to sending this form to Schwab. This helps ensure that liquidations
proceed efciently, because many brokerage or trust companies will not
accept instructions from Schwab to sell assets.
On a mutual fund transfer where the fund is held directly with the
mutual fund company, you may utilize Section 6 of the Transfer Your
Account form to facilitate the liquidation (sell).
Can I liquidate my securities during the account transfer?
Buying and selling securities during the account transfer process may
complicate and delay your transfer. Some rms may even “freezean
account that is in the process of being transferred, meaning that no
trades will be permitted until the transfer is complete. As a result, you
should avoid trading during the transfer process. If you are concerned
about not being able to sell your stock during the transfer process,
please consider selling and waiting until you have received the proceeds
before entering the transfer request.
How do I transfer an annuity?
We recommend that you contact your existing insurer to verify the
status of any charges or benets before you proceed with your transfer/
exchange request. Please also note that, in order to process your
request, additional documentation and information may be required by
Schwab or the current insurer.
To transfer your annuity assets, a surrender or liquidation of your
annuity contract assets must generally occur. This may result in the
following consequences: surrender charges, loss of vested living
or death benets, taxable earnings and possible tax penalties. For
annuities not held in an IRA account, Section 1035 of the Internal
Revenue Code allows you to make a tax-free exchange of one annuity
contract for another annuity contract. Some annuities require the
submission of the original policy to complete a transfer; please consult
with your Insurance Company and submit the original policy if needed.
How do I transfer my company retirement plans?
Please consult with your plan administrator before initiating a transfer
request. Then, to roll over your 401(k) or another employer-sponsored
retirement plan, call a Schwab Rollover Consultant at 1-877-412-6116.
From lling out paperwork to answering your questions and helping you
work with your plan administrator, a dedicated Rollover Consultant will
personally manage the process for you from start to nish, making it
easy to roll over to a new IRA.
What about cost basis?
Schwab will update your account with the cost basis information
provided on a transfer statement by a delivering rm. Because
the accuracy of cost basis data depends upon these third-party
statements, Schwab is not able to guarantee the availability, accuracy
or completeness of such cost basis data. It is your obligation to conrm
the accuracy of the information Schwab receives from the delivering
rm by visiting Schwab.com or calling Schwab. Cost basis information is
intended for residents of the U.S. It may not be available or appropriate
for customers who reside outside the U.S.
Questions? Call 1-800-435-4000.

2 Choose Your Agent’s Type of Authority (Select A or B)
Please choose the type of
authority you wish to grant
your Agent: Limited Power of
Attorney or Full Power of
Attorney.
Granting Power of Attorney gives your Agent a broad range of authority over your accounts, whether you grant your Agent
trading authority (Limited Power of Attorney, or LPOA) or trading and withdrawal authority (Full Power of Attorney, or
FPOA).
Please select only ONE type of authority you wish to grant your Agent below.
A. Trading Authority
You can select only ONE type
of authority.
Trading Authority (LPOA) gives your Agent the authority to:
• Trade in your account in the same manner and extent that you are permitted to do.
• View your account online.
• Incur additional margin debt, if your account is approved for margin.
Please review the attached Power of Attorney Authorization and Agreement for more information about the powers, roles
and responsibilities of all parties. LPOA does not allow your Agent to make withdrawals, transfer funds or securities out of
your account, close your account, change the mailing address on your account or activate a Schwab One
®
Visa
®
Platinum
Debit Card.
B. Trading and Withdrawal Authority
This grant of authority is not
available to Investment
Advisors.
Trading and Withdrawal Authority (FPOA) gives your Agent trading authority as described in A above, plus the
authority to:
• Withdraw funds from your account, including requesting that a check, electronic funds transfer (EFT) or wire transfer
be sent to someone other than you, including a withdrawal made payable to the Agent.
• Request that assets in your account be transferred to another Schwab account in the name of a third party, including
a transfer to the Agent’s separate Schwab account.
• Execute or change a beneficiary designation on your behalf on your eligible Schwab accounts (your Agent may not
execute a beneficiary designation in favor of himself or herself).
Write checks on your account, including checks made payable to any third party and the Agent.
Please review the attached Power of Attorney Authorization and Agreement for more information about the powers, roles
and responsibilities of all parties. An FPOA does not allow your Agent to add margin or options trading features to your
account. With FPOA, your Agent cannot transfer securities out of your Schwab account to another brokerage firm unless
the Agent also has a separate Durable Power of Attorney. With FPOA, your Agent can change his or her own password to
access your account but cannot change your password, close your account or change the mailing address on your
account.
For a trust account (other than a revocable living trust account, in which the Trustor[s], Trustee[s] and current
beneficiary[ies] are all the same individuals), before granting FPOA, Schwab will require photocopies of the following
pages from the trust document:
Please remember to include
these materials for a trust
document.
• Title pages containing the name and date of the trust, Trustor(s) and Trustee(s)
• Signature page(s)
• Pages setting forth the Trustee(s)’ authority to delegate powers and appoint Agents
3 Authorize Duplicate Materials for Your Agent

should be sent to your Agent.
Your selection will apply to

requirements. It is the legal responsibility of the POA to ensure he/she is complying with the Investment Advisor

instructions in order to implement my Agent’s instructions; to rely on my Agent’s instructions without obtaining my
approval, countersignature or co-signature; and to take other
actions necessary or incidental to the execution of such
instructions. If I have named more than one Agent, I agree that each Agent may act independently and without the consent
of any other Agent. I understand that this is not a durable POA and that all authority granted to my Agent shall cease
automatically upon Schwab (or Schwab Bank, if applicable) receiving written notification from a licensed p
hysician of my
mental disability, incompetence, incapacity or death.
If this POA relates to a trust account, each Trustee certifies that the trust instrument authorizes the delegation of
authorities as indicated within this Power of Attorney form and such delegation is not prohibited by the laws that govern
the trust.

account and are part of the
Account Agreement between each Account Holder and Schwab Bank, if applicable. The terms “I,” “me” and “my”
refer to each Schwab or Schwab Bank Account Holder.
• Please note that for the purposes of this Power of Attorney (POA), the term “brokerage account” refers to your
account with Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”), a registered broker-dealer, and the term “Schwab Bank High

Schwab Bank (“Schwab Bank”), an Equal Housing Lender and Member FDIC.
Section 1: Account Holder’s Authorization of
Agent’s Powers
I authorize Schwab to take such actions as
Schwab deems necessary to carry out
instructions Schwab receives from me and/or
Agent. I further authorize Schwab, in its sole
discretion and for whatever reason, to request
additional documentation from me prior to
executing any transaction requested by my
Agent. If I have appointed two or more Agents,
both Agents will have identical powers as
indicated in Section 2 of the Power of Attorney
form, and I hereby authorize them to act alone
and without the consent of the other Agent or
Agents, with respect to the powers granted. In
addition, I hereby authorize Schwab, in its sole
discretion, to restrict my Account from further
activity in the event the Agents enter conflicting
or inconsistent instructions.
I authorize Schwab to mail duplicate copies of
account statements and/or trade confirmations
to the Agent(s), if I have so indicated by
checking the boxes in Section 3. If Agent is
associated with a securities firm of the
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority
(“FINRA”), Schwab is authorized to deliver
information concerning my Account, including
duplicate confirmations and account
statements, to such firm upon written request.
For both FPOA and LPOA, the Agent’s authority
will include, without limitation, the authority in
the same manner and to the same extent as
any Account Holder:
• to give instructions for transactions in
securities and financial instruments, including
the buying and selling of stocks, bonds,
debentures, notes, subscription warrants,
stock purchase warrants, options, mutual
fund shares, evidences of indebtedness, and
any other securities, instruments or contracts
relating to securities; and
• (where necessary to complete any
transaction) to transfer, convert, endorse,
sell, assign, set over and deliver any assets
held in the Account (the “Account Assets”)
and to make, execute and deliver any and all
written instruments of assignment and
transfer; and
• to update certain account information, but not
to change the account mailing address.
At its discretion, Schwab may, but is not
obligated to, decline to accept certain updated
account information from the Agent. The Agent
under an LPOA is not authorized to withdraw or
direct the disbursement of Account Assets from
the Account. If my Account has a Margin and
Short Account feature approved by Schwab,
Agent is authorized to trade on margin, to sell
short, to borrow securities, to otherwise cause
credit to be extended through the Account, and
to secure the performance of obligations in the
Account with Account Assets. If my Account is
authorized for options trading, after an options
trading application is completed by the Agent
and approved by Schwab, Agent is authorized
to place options orders. Whenever this Power
of Attorney is attached to any instrument of
assignment or transfer, all persons shall be
entitled, without further inquiry or investigation
and regardless of the date of such Power of
Attorney, to act in reliance upon the
assumption that the Account Assets named in
such instrument were duly and properly
transferred, endorsed, sold, assigned, set over
and delivered, and that with respect to such
Account Assets the authority conferred herein
is still in full force and effect. And, for FPOA
only, the authority in the same manner and to
the same extent as any Account Holder:
• to withdraw or direct the disbursement of
money held in the Account in or into the name
of any person or entity, including the Account
Holder, the Agent or upon Agent’s
instructions (but not to change or create joint
or multiple-party accounts); and
• on my behalf, to enter into further agreements
with Schwab regarding my Account, and
generally take all actions necessary in
connection with the Account, or which are
considered desirable by the Agent.
Notwithstanding the aforementioned, if this
trading authorization applies to an IRA, QRP,
403(b)(7) or Keogh account (“Retirement
Account”) for which Schwab or its affiliate and/
or any successor acts as trustee or custodian,
this authorization shall allow the Agent to
provide trading instructions to Schwab.
However, such instructions shall be limited to
purchase, exchange and sell orders in any
investment permitted by the terms of the
Retirement Account and pursuant to Schwab
policy, and other incidental transactions
subject to the limitations described herein.
And, for FPOA on a Retirement Account only,
the authority in the same manner and to the
same extent as any Account Holder:
• to direct distributions from the Retirement
Account (other than to the Agent) and to
make any elections in connection therewith
(including, without limitation, elections
relating to tax withholding); and
• (if authorized) to execute any beneficiary
designation for any Retirement Account held
for my benefit at Schwab in favor of any party
other than the Agent himself or herself. And,
for Authorized Check User only, the Agent’s
authority will include, without limitation, the
authority in the same manner and to the same
extent as any Account Holder to write checks
to any person or entity. I agree that until this
Power of Attorney is revoked by written notice
to Schwab and all checks delivered to the
Agent are returned, Schwab may continue to
honor all checks written against the Account
by the Agent.
Section 2: Account Holder’s Terms and
Conditions
All orders and transactions will be governed by
the terms and conditions of all account
agreements as applicable to my Account.
Role of Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. I
acknowledge and agree that:
• Schwab will merely effect trades as directed
by Agent (LPOA and FPOA only);
• Schwab will not give legal or tax advice;
• Agent and I are responsible for determining
the nature, potential value and suitability for
me of any particular investment strategy,
transaction (including futures transactions) or
security (including equities and options); I will
not rely on Schwab for this purpose and,
unless (1) required by applicable law, or (2) a
Schwab representative gives advice directly
to me or Agent that is clearly identified as a
Schwab recommendation for me to enter into
a particular transaction or to buy or sell a
particular security, Schwab has no
responsibility for any such determination;
• Schwab is not acting as a fiduciary;

Power of Attorney Authorization and Agreement - Client Copy Page 2 of 6
• I (and not Schwab) am responsible for
investigating and selecting Agent;
• Agent is not affiliated with or controlled or
employed by Schwab, and Schwab has not
approved, recommended or endorsed Agent;
• Agent, and not Schwab, is solely responsible
for determining if Agent is required to be
registered as an Investment Advisor with a
state agency or the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC). Registration rules vary by
state. I agree that it is Agent’s responsibility,
and not Schwab’s, to check his/her state’s
applicable rules;
• Unless required by applicable law, Schwab
has no duty to review, supervise or monitor
any investment decision, trading activity or
transaction by Agent in my Account; and
• Schwab reserves the right, in its sole
discretion, to no longer honor instructions for
Agent and will notify me if it chooses to do so.
In addition, I have investigated the business
experience, qualifications and reputation of my
Agent and am satisfied with the experience,
qualifications and reputation of my Agent.
I understand that Schwab has not provided any
advice to me regarding this Power of Attorney,
and if there is anything about this Power of
Attorney that I do not understand, I should
consult with my attorney for an explanation.
Indemnification. I hereby ratify and confirm any
and all transactions, trades or dealings effected
in and for my Schwab Account by my Agent,
and I agree to indemnify and hold harmless
Schwab, its affiliates, and their directors,
officers, employees and agents from and
against all claims, actions, judgments,
settlement amounts, costs and liabilities,
including attorneys’ fees, arising out of or
relating to:
• their reliance on this Power of Attorney;
• Schwab’s execution of Agent’s instructions;
and
• Schwab’s execution of disbursement
instructions received from Agent (FPOA and
Authorized Check User only).
Furthermore, I agree to indemnify and hold
Schwab harmless from, and to pay Schwab
promptly upon demand for, any and all losses
or financial obligations which may arise from
the acts or omissions of the Agent with respect
to my Account. I also agree that since Schwab
will not review, supervise or monitor trading by
the Agent in my Account, Schwab will not be
liable and I will not attempt to hold Schwab
liable for any trade or decision made by the
Agent whom I have selected, regardless of
whether or not any such trade or decision was
specifically authorized by me.
Termination of Authority. This Power of
Attorney, authorization and indemnification will
remain in effect until Schwab is notified in
writing of my death, mental disability,
incompetence or incapacity or until I have
revoked it by written notification, and such
notification is received by Schwab. Such
revocation will not affect my obligations
resulting from transactions initiated prior to
Schwab’s receipt of notice of revocation.
Transfer Agent (LPOA and FPOA only). To
induce any transfer agent or other third party to
act hereunder, I hereby agree that any transfer
agent or other third party receiving a duly
executed copy or facsimile of this Power of
Attorney may act upon it, and that revocation
or termination hereof shall be ineffective as to
such transfer agent or other third party unless
and until actual notice or knowledge of such
revocation or termination shall have been
received by such transfer agent or other third
party, and I, for myself and for my heirs,
executors, legal representatives and assigns,
hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless
any such transfer agent or third party from and
against any and all claims that may arise
against such transfer agent or other third party
by reason of such transfer agent or third party
having relied on this instrument.
Assignment. This Power of Attorney
supplements and in no way limits or restricts
rights which Schwab may have under existing
law or any other agreement with me. This
Power of Attorney will bind my heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns, and
will benefit Schwab’s successors, affiliates and
assigns.
Governing Law. The laws of the state of
California (but not the choice of law doctrines),
as applied to agreements signed and
performed in California, shall apply and bind
the parties in any and all questions arising
under this Power of Attorney, including
questions of validity, interpretation and
performance, except that the arbitration
agreement in Section 4 shall be governed by
the Federal Arbitration Act.
Arbitration. I agree to the arbitration provisions
in Section 4, which also includes required
arbitration disclosures.
Section 3: Agent’s Terms and Conditions
The undersigned Agent and Charles Schwab &
Co., Inc. (“Schwab”) agree that the authority
conferred on the Agent by the Power of
Attorney executed by the Account Holder
(“Customer”) shall be exercised in accordance
with the following terms and conditions
(“Agreement”):
Authorization to Make Transactions in the
Customer’s Account. Agent may give
instructions and take actions with respect to
the Account pursuant to the Power of Attorney.
Customer may revoke the Power of Attorney at
any time by giving written notice to Schwab.
Customer will have concurrent full authority at
all times to take actions and place orders for
the Account. Agent agrees not to take any
actions that exceed the authority under the
Power of Attorney or any other agreement
between the Agent and the Customer.
Role of Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. Unless
required by applicable law, Schwab will not
make or review trading or investment decisions
or offer legal or tax advice and is not in any way
responsible for reviewing, supervising or
monitoring any investment decision or trading
activity in a Customer’s account. Customer and
Agent are responsible for determining the
nature, potential value and suitability for
Customer of any particular investment strategy,
transaction (including futures transactions) or
security (including equities and options); Agent
will not rely on Schwab for this purpose and,
unless (1) required by applicable law, or (2) a
Schwab representative gives advice directly to
Agent that is clearly identified as a Schwab
recommendation for Agent to enter into a
particular transaction or to buy or sell a
particular security, Schwab has no
responsibility for any such determination.
Trade Confirmations and Account Statements.
Unless the Customer directs otherwise,
Schwab will not automatically send duplicate
trade confirmations and account statements to
the Agent.
Agent’s Relationship to Schwab. If appointed
FPOA or LPOA, Agent hereby represents that
he/she is familiar with and has reviewed the
investment goals, guidelines and objectives of
the Customer and will invest in a way that is
consistent with the Customer’s stated goals
and objectives. Such Agent will not represent
to Customer that Schwab and Agent are
affiliated or have any relationship other than
that described in this Agreement; that Schwab
endorses or recommends the Agent; that
Schwab provides any advice other than that
described in this Agreement; that Schwab
participates in or reviews Agent’s trading
decisions; or that Schwab manages, supervises
or monitors trading in the Account.
Any Agent agrees to immediately notify Schwab
of the Customer’s death or any termination or
revocation of the Power of Attorney and/or
modification of the Power of Attorney; Agent
also agrees to notify Schwab of any incapacity,
incompetence or mental disability of the
Customer that would render the Power of
Attorney void.
Compliance with Applicable Law. Agent will
comply with all applicable state and federal
laws (including the Investment Advisers Act of
1940 and comparable state laws), rules and
regulations as they may be amended from time
to time, including, without limitation, making
such disclosure as may be required by
applicable law, rule or regulation.
Agent further agrees that Agent, and not
Schwab, is solely responsible for determining if
Agent is required to be registered as an
Investment Advisor with a state agency or the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Registration rules vary by state. Agent agrees
to check his/her state’s applicable rules.
Compliance with FINRA Rules of Fair Practice.
Agent represents and warrants that, unless the
Agent has given Schwab written notice to the
contrary, Agent is not “associated” with a
member of the Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, within the meaning of Article I(Q) of
the FINRA bylaws. Agent agrees to give Schwab

Power of Attorney Authorization and Agreement - Client Copy Page 3 of 6
prompt and written notice if Agent later
becomes so associated in accordance with
FINRA’s Conduct Rule 3050 (formerly Section
28 of the Rules of Fair Practice).
Information. Agent will provide promptly any
information reasonably requested by Schwab
concerning the management of the Account or
compliance with this Agreement. If questions
arise concerning compliance with any law,
whether federal or state, Agent will take any
action believed by Schwab to be necessary to
ensure compliance with applicable law. This
provision shall not be read to imply that
Schwab has any duty to supervise or monitor
Agent’s management of Customer’s accounts
or compliance with applicable law. Agent
represents and warrants that all information
Agent provides to Schwab in this Agreement, or
otherwise at any time, is true, accurate and
complete. If any information Agent furnishes to
Schwab becomes materially inaccurate, false,
or otherwise misleading, Agent agrees to notify
Schwab promptly and take such action as is
necessary to revise such information.
Verification. Agent authorizes Schwab to
inquire from any source, including a consumer
reporting agency, as to Customer’s identity (as
required by federal law), creditworthiness and
ongoing eligibility for the Account (and that of
Customer’s spouse, if Customer lives in a
community property state) at account opening,
at any time throughout the life of the Account,
and thereafter for debt collection or
investigative purposes.
Monitoring of Conversations. Agent agrees
that Schwab may, but is not obligated to,
record telephone calls to monitor the quality of
service Agent or Customer receives, to verify
securities transaction information or for any
other valid purpose. Agent acknowledges that
Schwab may not be able to locate a tape
recording unless Schwab is provided the date
and time of the conversation and the full name
of the Schwab representative involved in the
conversation. Agent agrees that Schwab has
the sole right to determine how long tape
recordings will be retained.
Sale and Control of Restricted Securities
(LPOA and FPOA only). Before instructing
Schwab to sell securities that are:
• “restricted securities” or securities of an
issuer of which Agent or the Customer is an
“affiliate” (as those terms are defined in Rule
144 under the Securities Act of 1933), or
• securities that are being sold in reliance on
Rule 701 or Rule 145 under such Act, or
• securities of which the Customer or the Agent
and the issuer or its underwriter have entered
into an agreement restricting the
transferability of such securities,
Agent agrees to tell Schwab the status of such
securities and promptly furnish whatever
information and documents (including opinions
of legal counsel, if requested) that Schwab
requests in order to comply with its regulatory
duties.
Agent agrees not to hold Schwab liable for
delays in the sale or settlement of such
securities, or the release of proceeds from such
sale resulting from the failure of the issuer’s
counsel to issue in a timely manner or to
approve any necessary legal opinion, or any
other action or failure to act of any person or
entity other than Schwab.
Agent agrees not to tender any such securities
as collateral for an obligation the Customer
owes Schwab, unless Agent first obtains
Schwab’s prior written consent.
Indemnification. Agent agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless Schwab, its affiliates and their
directors, officers, employees and Agents from
and against all claims, actions, judgments,
settlement amounts, cost and liabilities,
including attorneys’ fees, arising out of or
relating to:
• any breach by Agent of any provision of this
Agreement;
• the performance or non-performance of the
Agent’s services; and
• any dispute involving Agent and Customer.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains all
of the agreements, representations and
understandings made between Agent and
Schwab. All modifications and amendments
must be in writing and signed by Schwab.
Schwab may amend the Agreement with
advance notice to Agent.
Assignment. Schwab may assign its rights and
obligations under this Agreement to any
subsidiary, affiliate or successor by merger or
consolidation without notice to the Agent, or to
any other entity after 30 days’ written notice to
Agent. Agent may not assign this Agreement
without Schwab’s prior written consent. This
Agreement is binding upon and will inure to the
benefit of each party’s successors, heirs, legal
representative and permitted assigns.
Waivers. The failure of either party at any time
to require performance by the other party of
any provision of this Agreement will not affect
in any way the right to require such
performance at any time thereafter. The waiver
by either party of a breach of any provision
hereof will not be taken or held to be a waiver
of the provision itself.
Governing Law. The laws of the state of
California (but not the choice of law doctrines),
as applied to agreements signed and
performed in California, shall apply and bind
the parties in any and all questions arising
under this Power of Attorney, including
questions of validity, interpretation and
performance, except that the arbitration
agreement in Section 4 below shall be
governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
Arbitration. Agent agrees to the arbitration
provisions in Section 4, which also includes
required arbitration disclosures.
Section 4: Account Holder and Agent Agree to
Arbitration
Required Arbitration Disclosures. Regulatory
authorities require that any brokerage
agreement containing a predispute arbitration
agreement must disclose that this agreement
contains a predispute arbitration clause. This
Agreement contains a predispute arbitration
clause. By signing an arbitration agreement,
the parties agree as follows:
• All parties to this Agreement are giving up
the right to sue each other in court, including
the right to a trial by jury, except as provided
by the rules of the arbitration forum in which
a claim is filed.
• Arbitration awards are generally final and
binding; a party’s ability to have a court
reverse or modify an arbitration award is
very limited.
• The ability of the parties to obtain
documents, witness statements and other
discovery is generally more limited in
arbitration than in court proceedings.
• The arbitrators do not have to explain the
reason(s) for their award unless, in an
eligible case, a joint request for an explained
decision has been submitted by all parties to
the panel at least 20 days prior to the first
scheduled hearing date.
• The panel of arbitrators will typically include
a minority of arbitrators who were or are
affiliated with the securities industry.
• The rules of some arbitration forums may
impose time limits for bringing a claim in
arbitration. In some cases, a claim that is
ineligible for arbitration may be brought in
court.
• The rules of the arbitration forum in which
the claim is filed, and any amendments
thereto, shall be incorporated into this
Agreement.
No person shall bring a putative or certified
class action to arbitration, nor seek to enforce
any predispute arbitration agreement against
any person who has initiated in court a
putative class action; or who is a member of a
putative class who has not opted out of the
class with respect to any claims encompassed
by the putative class action until:
1. the class certification is denied;
2. the class is decertified; or
3. the customer is excluded from the class by
the court.
Such forbearance to enforce an agreement to
arbitrate shall not constitute a waiver of any
rights under this Agreement except to the
extent stated herein.
Arbitration Agreement. Any controversy or
claim arising out of or relating to (i) this
Agreement, any other agreement with
Schwab, an instruction or authorization
provided to Schwab or the breach of any such
agreements, instructions, or authorizations; (ii)
the Account, any other Schwab account or
Services; (iii) transactions in the Account or
any other Schwab account; (iv) or in any way
arising from the relationship with Schwab, its
parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers,
directors, employees, agents or service

Power of Attorney Authorization and Agreement - Client Copy Page 4 of 6
providers (“Related Third Parties”), including
any controversy over the arbitrability of a
dispute, will be settled by arbitration.
This arbitration agreement will be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective representatives,
attorneys-in-fact, heirs, successors, assigns
and any other persons having or claiming to
have a legal or beneficial interest in the
Account, including court-appointed trustees
and receivers. This arbitration agreement will
also inure to the benefit of third-party service
providers that assist Schwab in providing
Services (“Third-Party Service Providers”) and
such Third-Party Service Providers are
deemed to be third-party beneficiaries of this
arbitration agreement.
The parties agree that this arbitration
agreement will apply even if the application to
open the Account is denied and will survive
the closure of your Account and/or the
termination of services rendered under this
Agreement.
Such arbitration will be conducted by, and
according to the securities arbitration rules
and regulations then in effect of, the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) or any
national securities exchange that provides a
forum for the arbitration of disputes, provided
that Schwab is a member of such national
securities exchange at the time the arbitration
is initiated. Any party may initiate arbitration
by filing a written claim with FINRA or such
eligible national securities exchange. If
arbitration before FINRA or an eligible national
securities exchange is unavailable or
impossible for any reason, then such
arbitration will be conducted by, and
according to the rules and regulations then in
effect of, the American Arbitration Association
(AAA). If arbitration before the AAA is
unavailable or impossible for any reason, the
parties agree to have a court of competent
jurisdiction appoint three (3) arbitrators to
resolve any and all disputes or controversies
between or among the parties. Each party
shall bear its own initial arbitration costs,
which are determined by the rules and
regulations of the arbitration forum. In the
event of financial hardship, the arbitration
forum may waive certain costs in accordance
with such rules. At the conclusion of the
hearing, the arbitrators will decide how to
assess the costs of the arbitration among the
parties.
Any award the arbitrator makes shall be final
and binding, and judgment on it may be
entered in any court having jurisdiction. This
arbitration agreement shall be enforced and
interpreted exclusively in accordance with
applicable federal laws of the United States,
including the Federal Arbitration Act. Any
costs, fees or taxes involved in enforcing the
award shall be fully assessed against and paid
by the party resisting enforcement of said
award.
For FINRA arbitrations, FINRA will appoint a
single public arbitrator in customer cases
decided by one arbitrator. In customer cases
decided by three arbitrators, investors have
the option of choosing an arbitration panel
with two public arbitrators and one non-public
arbitrator (Majority-Public Panel Rule) or a
panel of all public arbitrators (Optional All-
Public Panel Rule). If the customer declines to
elect a panel selection method in writing by
the applicable deadline, the Majority-Public
Panel Rule for selecting arbitrators will apply.
All notices from one party to the other
involving arbitration shall be considered to
have been fully given when so served, mailed
by first-class, certified or registered mail, or
otherwise given by other commercially
accepted medium of written notification.
In addition to the above provisions, if a party

Section 5: Schwab Bank Account Holder’s
Authorization of Agent’s Powers
I authorize Charles Schwab Bank (“Schwab
Bank”) to take such actions as Schwab Bank
deems necessary to carry out instructions
Schwab Bank receives from me and/or Agent. I
further authorize Schwab Bank, in its sole
discretion and for whatever reason, to request
additional documentation from me prior to
executing any transaction requested by my
Agent. If I have appointed two or more Agents,
both Agents will have identical powers as
indicated in Section 2 of the Power of Attorney
form, and I hereby authorize them to act alone
and without the consent of the other Agent or
Agents with respect to the powers granted. In
addition, I hereby authorize Schwab Bank, in its
sole discretion, to restrict my Schwab Bank
High Yield Investor Checking
®
account from
further activity in the event the Agents enter
conflicting or inconsistent instructions.
For LPOA, my Agent’s authority consists of the
authority to view account information, balances
and transactions, but not to make withdrawals
or transfer funds. My Agent may also request
copies of specific account statements upon my
request.
For FPOA, my Agent’s authority consists of
unlimited authority to view account information,
balances and transactions, transfer or
withdraw money from my Account, including
into the name of the Agent, to write checks
against my Account, obtain stop payments and
generally take any other actions with respect to
my Account in the same manner and to the
same extent as I am permitted to do. My Agent
may also request copies of specific account
statements upon my request. I understand that
certain access devices may not be made
available to my Agent. My Agent is authorized
to update certain account information, but not
to change the High Yield Investor Checking
account mailing address nor to change or
create joint accounts. At its discretion, Schwab
Bank may, but is not obligated to, decline to
accept certain updated account information
from the Agent. My Agent is authorized on my
behalf to enter into further agreements with
Schwab Bank regarding my High Yield Investor
Checking account and generally to take all
actions necessary in connection with the
Account, or which are considered desirable by
the Agent.
Whenever this Power of Attorney is attached to
any instrument of assignment or transfer, all
persons shall be entitled, without further
inquiry or investigation and regardless of the
date of such Power of Attorney, to act in
reliance upon the assumption that the Account
Assets named in such instrument were duly
and properly transferred, endorsed, sold,
assigned, set over and delivered, and that with
respect to such Account Assets the authority
conferred herein is still in full force and effect.

Trustee Services
Managing a trust can be complex. The trustee plays a crucial role in implementing any estate plan
involving trusts. Schwab provides knowledgeable assistance and support to help trustees with this
responsibility.
The role of the trustee
Asset management. The trustee takes custody of and protects and manages trust assets. This
includes nancial assets, such as stocks, bonds, and mutual funds, as well as nonnancial assets,
such as certain real estate and business interests.
Administrative duties. In addition to asset management, the trustee is responsible for:
Collecting trust income and paying trust expenses, including taxes
Making appropriate distributions to beneciaries
Keeping accurate records, including principal and income accounting
Filing all required tax reporting documents
Carrying out the terms of the trust
Selecting a trustee
You may choose between an individual and the professional services of an institution to manage a
trust. Here are some of the factors to consider when selecting a trustee.
Individual Trustee Professional Trustee
Availability Personal health and other
circumstances could prevent an
individual from serving when needed.
An institution is available when needed
and can provide continuity from
generation to generation.
Expertise While any given individual might not be
able to perform each and every function
required of a trustee, he or she can
generally hire the expertise needed.
A professional trustee can usually
perform all of the functions with in-
house resources. If not, the institution
can also hire outside experts.
Objectivity If family conicts arise, will the
individual trustee be able to remain
objective?
Using a professional trustee can help
defuse potential family conicts.
Practicality While there are no absolute minimum or
maximum amounts an individual trustee
can manage, some clients might be
uncomfortable with this arrangement
when the trust is very large.
Professional trustees are generally
capable of and comfortable handling
very large trusts. Also, they typically
have minimum asset requirements.
Individual trustee services
from Schwab
Schwab can provide a wide range of resources to support individual trustees in carrying out
their investment duties. From tools for the completely self-directed trustee to ongoing portfolio
management by an independent professional, Schwab has investment solutions to t each situation.
Trustee Services

Schwab Advisor Network advisors are independent and are not employees or agents
of Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (“Schwab”). Schwab prescreens advisors and checks
their experience and credentials against criteria Schwab sets, such as years
of experience managing investments, amount of assets managed, professional
education, regulatory licensing, and business relationship as a client of Schwab.
Advisors pay fees to Schwab in connection with referrals. Schwab does not
supervise advisors and does not prepare, verify, or endorse information distributed
by advisors. Investors must decide whether to hire an advisor and what authority to
give him or her. Investors, not Schwab, are responsible for monitoring and evaluating
an advisor’s service, performance, and account transactions. Services may vary
depending on which advisor an investor chooses.
For clients of independent investment advisors. Independent investment advisors are
not owned by, afliated with, or supervised by Schwab.

of Charles Schwab Bank. Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. and Charles Schwab Bank are
separate but afliated companies and wholly owned subsidiaries of The Charles
Schwab Corporation. Schwab Advisor Services™ is a business segment of The

the custody, trading, and support services of Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. Charles

trusts whose investments are managed by independent investment advisory rms
and are selected solely by the trust’s grantor or beneciaries to provide investment

Schwab Corporation, Charles Schwab Bank, Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., or any of their
afliates or subsidiaries. Schwab Advisor Services also provides custody, securities
brokerage, trust accounting, and related back-ofce services to the administrative
trusts for which Charles Schwab Bank serves as an administrative trustee.

investment management to a third-party advisor, Schwab has appropriate alternatives.
For trustees who want to invest on their own, Schwab offers convenient account access, a
diverse range of investment choices, timely research, educational resources, and online investing
tools—all to help self-directed trustees invest with insight and ease.

wants occasional advice or full-time management, and if the portfolio is straightforward or
complex, Schwab has a solution.

trustee services

would handle the investment management of the assets in your trust.
Asset requirements. Schwab Advisor Network referrals are made for clients who have investment
