Tax-Free Savings Account
Designation of Successor Holder
and/or Beneficiary
This form allows you to designate a successor holder or a beneficiary or both in your Tax-Free Savings Account ("Account").
Successor holder: Only your spouse or common-law partner, as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada), can be a successor holder. In the
event of your death, the name on the Account is changed to the name of the successor holder, who will continue to hold and operate the
Account as their own.
Beneficiary: You can designate a beneficiary in your Account. In the event of your death, the beneficiary will receive the proceeds in the
Account and the Account will be closed if:
1. You have not designated a successor holder, or
2. The designated successor holder was not your spouse or common-law partner at the time of your death or has pre-deceased you.
Important Reminder: Your designation of a successor holder or beneficiary of this Account will not be revoked or changed automatically
by any future marriage, divorce or relationship breakdown. Should you wish to change your successor holder or beneficiary in the event of a
marriage, divorce, relationship breakdown or for any other reason, you will have to do so by means of a new designation. You will need to
complete a new designation that will revoke all previous successor holder and beneficiary designations you have made in the past for the
Account referenced in this form. Therefore, if you have both a successor holder and a beneficiary designation in place for a particular
tax-free savings account, you should complete and sign a new successor holder and beneficiary designation form every time you make a
change to either.

documentation which the Trustee may reasonably require, distribute the net proceeds of the Account in accordance with the operative
beneficiary designation, if any. If any designated beneficiary predeceases me, the portion of that beneficiary's entitlement to the net proceeds
