3. Withhold Taxes from Your Distribution


Distributions treated as nonperiodic payments from your IRA (excluding those from Roth IRAs) are generally subject to federal (and possibly state)
income tax. Even if you elect in writing not to have federal and/or state income tax withheld when permitted, you are liable for payment of federal
and state income taxes on the taxable portion of your distribution. You may elect not to have federal income tax withholding apply to your
distribution by entering 0% on the line of Section A. Federal Income Tax Withholding below, and signing and dating this form. If you elect not to have
withholding apply to your distribution, or if you do not have enough tax withheld, you may be responsible for payment of estimated taxes. You may
also incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. For more information, see IRS
Publication 590-B.

Your tax withholding election will remain in effect on all distributions from this IRA until you change or revoke it. You may change or revoke your tax
withholding election at any time by submitting your request to Schwab. The federal or combined federal and state withholding tax rate of 100% will
not be retained for future distributions. To process a distribution with a federal or combined federal and state withholding tax rate of 100%, please
request a one-time check.

Note:

• Distributions from an IRA that are payable on demand are treated as nonperiodic payments.

• Nonresident aliens are subject to a 30% tax withholding rate and must submit a valid IRS Form W-8BEN to obtain an available reduced tax treaty
rate.

• Generally, Roth IRA distributions are not taxable. Unless you have an existing election on file or elect to withhold on this form, we will not
withhold taxes from your Roth IRA distribution.

A. Federal Income Tax Withholding: Your withholding rate is determined by the type of payment you will receive.

For nonperiodic payments, the default withholding rate is 10%. You can choose to have a different rate by entering a rate between 0% and 100%
below. Generally, you can't choose less than 10% for payments to be delivered outside the United States and its possessions.

Complete the line below if you would like a rate of withholding that is different from the default withholding rate. See the Marginal Rate Tables
on page 1 and the General Instructions on page 2 of the attached IRS Form W-4R. You may use these tables to help you select the appropriate
withholding rate for this payment or distribution. Instructions on how to best use them are included.

Enter the rate as a whole number (no decimals). %


Note: The attached IRS Form W-4R is for information only. You are not required to complete the IRS Form W-4R.
B. State Income Tax Withholding: State income tax withholding from your distribution may be required. In some cases, you may elect not to have
withholding apply, or you may elect to increase the rate of withholding. In other cases, state income tax withholding may not be available. Refer
to the State Income Tax Withholding Information sheet for specific information concerning your state's withholding rates.

While Schwab makes every effort to obtain information about state tax laws from sources believed to be reliable, Schwab cannot guarantee the
accuracy or timeliness of state tax withholding information because state tax laws are subject to constant change and interpretation. We
recommend that you contact your tax advisor regarding your tax withholding elections and to answer any questions that you may have.

If you do not make an election, Schwab will apply withholding (if required) at the minimum rate based on the laws for your state of residency
as determined by the legal address of record on your account.
Choose one:
I do not want state income tax withheld.
I want state income tax withheld at the rate of % (State tax withholding must be at least your state's minimum tax rate and not
more than 100% when combined with federal income tax withholding.)
Note: If you move between states with different withholding laws, Schwab will apply withholding (if required) at the rate you have provided above or
at the minimum rate based on the laws for your new state of residency, whichever is greater.

4. Tell Us the Amount and Frequency of Your Distribution


It is important that you ensure that there is sufficient cash available in your account by the date of distribution. If you want a cash distribution from
positions other than your available sweep cash balance, you may place a trade on Schwab.com at a discounted commission rate or call us at
1-800-435-4000 to place a trade with a broker. Please do so prior to submitting this form. If your IRA is enrolled in a managed product, contact your
service provider for the appropriate form.

6. Important Information About Your Distribution


Distribution of Assets
You may take a distribution of assets—funds or securities—from a Traditional, Rollover, Roth, Inherited, SEP or SIMPLE IRA at any time.
Taxation of IRAs
In general, qualified distributions from a Roth IRA (including contributions and investment earnings) and distributions of the nondeductible
contributions to a Traditional/Rollover IRA and Roth IRA are free from federal income tax. All other IRA distributions, including deductible
contributions and investment earnings, are subject to federal (and possibly state) income tax at ordinary income tax rates.
Rollover Exception
If you take a distribution from your IRA, you have 60 days from the date of the withdrawal to roll the assets back into an IRA (at Schwab or
elsewhere) to avoid taxes and penalties on the amount distributed. The rollover must be made into the same kind of IRA (e.g., a distribution from a
Roth IRA may be rolled over only into another Roth IRA, not a Traditional IRA). You may do this only once in a rolling 12-month period. Rollovers are
not allowed with Inherited IRAs; therefore, the 60-day rollover rule does not apply.
Early Withdrawal Penalty
If you are not yet age 59½, a 10% early withdrawal penalty applies to the taxable portion of distributions from the Traditional/Rollover IRA, Roth IRA,
SEP-/SARSEP-IRA or SIMPLE IRA unless the distribution qualifies for an exception to the penalty. In the case of a SIMPLE IRA, the early withdrawal
penalty increases from 10% to 25% for a distribution made within the first two years after the account is established.
Exceptions to the Early Withdrawal Penalty
The 10% penalty described above may not apply if the distribution is: (1) used for qualified higher education expenses, qualified home purchase
expenses, certain medical expenses, or certain health insurance expenses during periods when you are unemployed; (2) made after your death or
disability; (3) paid in substantially equal payments over your life or life expectancy; (4) paid on account of an IRS levy; (5) a qualified reservist
distribution; (6) birth/adoption excise tax exception; (7) federally declared disaster; (8) domestic abuse; or (9) emergency expense. You can file IRS
Form 5329, along with your federal tax return, to claim an exemption from the 10% penalty with respect to your distribution.
If you convert your Traditional/Rollover IRA to a Roth IRA, the taxable portion of your Traditional IRA is not subject to the 10% penalty regardless of
your age at the time of the conversion.
Repayment of Certain Penalty-Free Distributions
For birth/adoption, federally declared disaster, domestic abuse, or emergency expense distributions you have three years to repay the distribution.
Generally, the three-year time frame starts the day after the distribution is received.

Request an IRA Distribution Page 8 of 9

Required Minimum Distributions


When you reach the Required Minimum Distribution age, you are required to begin taking distributions from your Traditional/Rollover IRA. This is not
required for a Roth IRA. Inherited IRAs, including Roth Inherited IRAs, have different Required Minimum Distributions rules.
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
This summary is intended to provide a general statement of the rules affecting withdrawals from IRAs and is not intended to provide specific
guidance. The rules affecting withdrawals from these accounts are complex and subject to change. Please consult your own financial, tax or legal
advisor regarding the application of the rules regarding your particular situation before requesting a distribution. For more information, see IRS
Publication 590-B.

loss, claim, damage, or liability arising out of or resulting from any action taken by Schwab in reliance upon this representation and warranty that
Schwab in good faith accepts as genuine.
If I am the Schwab IRA Account Holder, my signature below constitutes my agreement with the terms set forth in Section 7A and, if applicable,
Section 7B. If I am an Account Holder of the Other Financial Institution, my signature below constitutes my agreement with the terms set forth in
Section 7C.
