The Bank Sweep feature is an available Cash Feature for brokerage accounts of account holders residing in the U.S. Through the Bank Sweep
feature, Schwab automatically makes deposits to and withdrawals from deposit accounts at one or more banks ("Sweep Banks"). Your deposits at
each Sweep Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 (including principal and accrued interest) when
aggregated with all other deposits held by you in the same insurable capacity at that bank. Certain conditions must be satisfied for FDIC insurance
coverage to apply. Your funds may be placed in a Sweep Bank in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. In certain limited circumstances, Schwab may
place your funds in a sweep money market fund. Please see the Cash Features Program Disclosure Statement for additional information and a list of
the banks. Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. is not an FDIC-insured bank and deposit insurance covers the failure of an insured bank.
By signing this Application, you consent to participate in Schwab's Cash Features Program, as described in the Cash Features Program Disclosure
Statement, and you also consent to having the Bank Sweep feature as your designated Cash Feature.
You understand and agree that Schwab can (1) make changes to the terms and conditions of the Cash Features Program; (2) make changes to the
terms and conditions of any Cash Feature; (3) change, add, or discontinue any Cash Feature; (4) change your investment from one Cash Feature to
another if you become ineligible for your current Cash Feature or your current Cash Feature is discontinued; and (5) make any other changes to the
Cash Features Program or Cash Feature as allowed by law. Schwab will notify you in writing of changes to the terms of the Cash Features, changes
to the Cash Features we make available, or changes to the Cash Features Program prior to the effective date of the proposed changes.

General Terms and Conditions Page 1 of 2
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 Program 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 conflict between the descriptions in this document and the terms of the Cash Features Program Disclosure
Statement, the Cash Features Program Disclosure Statement will control.

earn income while you decide how those funds should be invested longer term.
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

• The interest rate on the Schwab One Interest feature is set by Schwab. We have the option to
pay as low a rate as possible consistent with our view of prevailing market and business
conditions. With certain exceptions, the rate may be tiered based upon the overall free credit
balance within your account.
• The interest rates paid on the Bank Sweep feature are set by the Affiliated Program Banks, and
may be set as low as possible consistent with prevailing market and business conditions.
Retirement accounts will be paid a reasonable rate consistent with applicable legal and
regulatory requirements. With certain exceptions, the rate may be tiered based upon your
account type and the combined amount of your account's Bank Sweep deposits at the Program
Bank(s).

Cash features are not intended to be long-term investments, and yields on any of our cash
features may be lower than those of similar investments or deposit accounts offered outside the
Cash Features Program. 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

Benefits to Schwab We charge fees and receive certain benefits under the different cash features. We share a
portion of these fees and benefits with our investment professionals. Because of these fees and
benefits, we have a financial incentive to select the particular cash features included in the
Cash Features Program.
Differing Risks and 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
Account Protection 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 and Bank Sweep for Benefit Plans features are not subject to market risk and
value loss but are subject to the risk of the failure of one or more of the Program Banks. Please
review the Cash Features Program Disclosure Statement for a list of the Program Banks
(www.schwab.com/cashfeaturesdisclosure). Certain conditions must be satisfied for FDIC
insurance coverage to apply. In the unlikely event that one or more of the Program Banks fails,
deposits at each 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 that bank outside
of the Bank Sweep and Bank Sweep for Benefit Plans features. You are responsible for
monitoring your bank balances in the Bank Sweep and Bank Sweep for Benefit Plans
features and the balances in any of your other bank accounts at each Program Bank to
determine if these, in total, exceed FDIC insurance limits. Monies held in both features are
not covered by SIPC.
• The Money Fund Sweep feature invests in high-quality, short- term securities and seeks to
maintain a stable value, but is subject to market risks and potential value loss. It is not a bank
account and is not subject to FDIC insurance protection. It is instead covered by SIPC, which
protects against the custodial risk (and not a decline in market value) when a brokerage firm
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.
