I also agree to pay all applicable federal, state and local taxes. If there are any federal, state and local taxes, I authorize IPOWallet.Com automatically to debit my Account for any such fees and taxes.

(c) Joint Accounts.
If there is more than one Account holder, the legal ownership of the Account will be as designated on the Account Application. If no designation is made, each Account holder directs IPOWallet.Com to establish the Account as joint tenants with rights of survivorship.
If there is more than one Account holder, each Account holder agrees to be jointly and severally liable for all obligations arising under this Agreement or otherwise relating to the Account, including responsibility for orders entered through the Service or using any User ID and Password assigned to the Account, regardless of which Account holder gives such instructions, enters such orders or changes such Password. Each Account holder has full authority, acting individually and without notice to any other Account holder, to deal with IPOWallet.Com as fully and completely as if such Account holder were the sole Account holder. Each Account holder authorizes IPOWallet.Com to follow the instructions of any one Account holder concerning any matter pertaining to the Account.
This includes purchase and sale of crowdfunding offerings, delivery of any or all Offerings and/or Other Property in the Account to any Account holder or to any third party, or disbursement of any or all monies in the Account. IPOWallet.Com is not responsible for determining the purpose or propriety of any instruction received from any Account holder as against any other Account holder, or of any disposition of payments or deliveries of Offerings between or among Account holders.

In the event of a dispute between or among Account holders of which IPOWallet.Com has notice, IPOWallet.Com reserves the right, but is not obligated, to place restrictions on an Account. For example, if an Account holder requests a restriction be placed on access to funds in the Account because of a pending divorce litigation or dispute between Account holders, IPOWallet.Com may prohibit all transfers of funds from the Account, with such restrictions to remain in place until IPOWallet.Com actually receives and has a reasonable amount of time to act on appropriate court documentation or a written, notarized instruction signed by all Account holders. In such a case, all Account holders remain liable for any pending transaction fees that have not yet cleared at the time of the restriction.

If a suit or proceeding for or in the nature of interpleader is brought by or against it, IPOWallet.Com may liquidate the securities positions in the Account and deliver the proceeds into the registry of the court, at which time IPOWallet.Com will be deemed to be and will be released and discharged from all further obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement.

Any former Account holder and the estate of any deceased or incapacitated Account holder will remain jointly and severally liable for any Losses in the Account arising out of or relating to transactions initiated before IPOWallet.Com actually received and had a reasonable amount of time to act on such official written notice.
IPOWallet.Com will not notify other Account holders of the actions taken by any one Account holder. Each Account holder agrees that notice provided to any one Account holder will be deemed to be notice to all Account holders for all purposes.
(d) Taxpayer ID and Backup Withholding.
If a correct Taxpayer Identification Number is not provided to IPOWallet.Com, I understand I may be subject to backup withholding tax at the appropriate rate on all offerings paid to me. Backup withholding taxes are sent to the IRS and cannot be refunded by IPOWallet.Com I further understand that if I waive tax withholding and fail to pay sufficient estimated taxes to the IRS, I may be subject to tax penalties.

I understand that there may be a stop transaction charge for each stop payment order. My stop payment order must be directed to the support@IPOWallet.com and include the Account number, check number (if any), exact amount (dollars and cents), check or transaction date and the name of the payee. IPOWallet.Com and its bank service provider will not be liable for paying a transaction over a stop payment order if the order is incomplete or incorrect. IPOWallet.Com and its bank service provider must receive stop payment orders at a time and in a manner that affords them a reasonable opportunity to act in accordance with such an order.
Unless IPOWallet.Com and its bank service provider agree to treat my stop payment order as permanent, it will remain valid for only six months. After that time, the transaction may be paid and charged to my Account unless I renew the stop payment order for an additional fee. A stop payment request will not become effective until IPOWallet.Com receives and has a reasonable amount of time to act on the stop payment request. IPOWallet.Com’s receipt of a stop payment request does not guarantee that an item will not be paid. In order to stop payment on a transaction, IPOWallet.Com must have received the stop payment request and had a reasonable opportunity to act on the request before final payment of the transaction. IPOWallet.Com may require me to confirm my stop payment request in writing. I will be responsible, and IPOWallet.Com will not be liable, for any stopped items that clear my Account during this time.

IPOWallet.Com may also monitor and make a record of my use of the Service and any other communications between IPOWallet.Com and me and may use the resulting information for internal purposes or as may be required by applicable law. I further understand and agree that IPOWallet.Com may retain records of all of my activity on and through the IPOWallet.Com Web Site, and may share that information with certain government bodies, including the SEC and FINRA, upon their respective requests. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, IPOWallet.Com does not consent to the recording of telephone conversations by any third party or me.

6. TRADING PROVISIONS
(a) Responsibility for Orders.
All orders for the purchase and sale of Offerings given for my Account will be authorized by me and executed in reliance on my promise that an actual purchase or sale is intended. It is my intention and obligation to deliver necessary funds to pay for purchase transactions immediately on IPOWallet.Com’s demand. I understand IPOWallet.Com may at any time, in its sole discretion and without prior notice to me, prohibit or restrict my ability to place orders, make investments, withdraw funds, trade offerings, and or cancel orders. I further agree not to allow any person to trade on my Account unless a trading authorization for that person has been received and approved by IPOWallet.Com
(b) Applicable Rules and Regulations.
All transactions in my Account will be subject to the constitution, rules, regulations, customs and usages of the exchange or market, and its clearinghouse if any, where such transactions are executed by IPOWallet.Com or its agents, as well as IPOWallet.Com’s house trading rules and policies. Where applicable, such transactions will be subject to the provisions of the JOBS Act Amendments to the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, FINRA and any applicable self-regulatory organization. In no event will IPOWallet.Com be obligated to affect any transaction it believes would violate any federal or state law, rule or regulation or the rules or regulations of any regulatory or self-regulatory body.
(c) Crowdfunding Market and Offerings Volatility, Market Orders and Limit Orders.
I understand that, whether I place an order, I will receive the price at which my order is executed in the crowdfunding marketplace. Particularly during periods of high volume, illiquidity, fast movement or volatility in the crowdfunding marketplace, the execution price received may differ from the quote provided on entry of an order, and I may receive partial executions of an order at different prices. I understand that IPOWallet.Com is not liable for any such price fluctuations.
Offerings may open for trading at prices substantially higher or lower than the previous offering price or the anticipated price. If I place a crowdfunding market order, I agree to pay or receive the prevailing market price at the time my order is executed. I understand that the price I pay may be significantly higher or lower than anticipated at the time I placed the order.
(d) Order Handling.
I understand that, subject to the terms of an order, the method of execution of each order is in the sole discretion of IPOWallet.Com IPOWallet.Com may, in its sole discretion, subject certain orders to manual review and entry, which may cause delays in the execution of my orders and may cause my orders to be executed at prices that are significantly different from the price quotes I obtained when I entered my order. IPOWallet.Com reserves the right in its sole discretion to decline to accept any order or to change its requirements with respect to any order without advance notice. I authorize IPOWallet.Com to submit my orders jointly with other orders for other customers and I acknowledge that the average price for executions resulting from bunched orders will be assigned to my Account. On request, IPOWallet.Com will make available the underlying records reflecting the actual transaction prices. I further acknowledge and agree that Offering prices are set solely by the Issuers and IPOWallet.Com has no ability to control Issuer-initiated changes to any Offerings or prices.
(e) Purchases.
I promise to pay for all securities and offerings purchased in my Account by addition of the appropriate cash amount on or before the Settlement Date. IPOWallet.Com reserves the right to require that my Account contain Available Funds in an amount equal to or greater than the purchase price of the securities prior to the trade date. I am responsible for my orders, and I will not rely on IPOWallet.Com to reject orders that exceed my purchasing power. If full funds are not available in the Account and my order is processed, I must promptly deliver payment to IPOWallet.Com for receipt on or before the Settlement Date. If payment is not received by Settlement Date, or as market conditions warrant at any time before or after settlement, IPOWallet.Com may in its sole discretion liquidate and close out any and all Offerings in the Account initiating the transaction to satisfy my payment obligation, without prior notice and without regard for any previous demand or agreement concerning the time for payment. IPOWallet.Com may otherwise liquidate Offerings in one Account to satisfy a payment obligation in another Account. In the event my Account is liquidated, I will be liable for any Losses incurred by IPOWallet.Com
(f) Free-Riding.
Free-riding, or the practice of buying and selling a security in a cash account without valid and timely payment, violates Regulation T of the Federal Reserve Board and may violate other state or federal securities laws and rules. I will not engage in any free-riding transactions in my Account. If I am found to have engaged in free-riding, regardless of whether the activity resulted in a profit, my Accounts may be restricted or closed. I will be responsible for any Losses arising out of or relating to any free-riding transactions in my Account, but I will not be entitled to retain any profit from free-riding transactions. If I am found to have been free-riding in a transaction that generated a profit, that profit will, to the extent permitted by law, be forfeited to IPOWallet.Com.
(g) Cancellation Requests, Order Changes, Late and Corrected Reports.
A cancel instruction is only a request and, as such, cancellation of my order is not guaranteed. IPOWallet.Com processes requests to cancel on a best efforts basis and is not liable to me if it is unable to change or cancel an order. My order will be canceled only if my cancellation request is received in the marketplace and matched up with the existing order before the order is executed. The ability to cancel an order depends in large part on the volume of trading in the particular offering and marketplace and market conditions as a whole, over which IPOWallet.Com has no control. If an order cannot be canceled or changed, I agree that I will be bound by the results of the original order I placed.
I will not assume that an order has been executed, changed or cancelled until I have received a transaction status report from IPOWallet.Com specifically indicating that the order has been executed, changed or cancelled. I am responsible for knowing the status of my pending orders before entering additional orders. Any duplication by me of a pending order will be considered authorized and intended by me, even if the execution of the order exceeds my Available Funds or purchasing power. If I want to change an existing order, I agree to enter a change order. If I enter a cancellation request, I agree to wait for a transaction status report specifically indicating that my cancellation request has been affected prior to entering a replacement order. Repeated, successive change orders, particularly when an order is partially executed, may under some circumstances result in reporting delays and/or inaccuracies in initial transaction status reports. I will rely on official transaction confirmations as the official records of transactions in my Account, and I agree to contact IPOWallet.Com in the event I am unclear as to the status of an order.
(h) Disclosures to Issuers.
IPOWallet.Com is required to disclose to an Issuer the name, address and position of each customer who is a beneficial owner of that Issuer’s securities unless I object. This is done to comply with Rule 14b-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Unless I notify IPOWallet.Com of such objection in writing, IPOWallet.Com will make such disclosures to Issuers.
(i) Reorganizations and Corporate Actions.
Certain securities may impart valuable rights that expire unless the holder takes some action. I understand that I am responsible for knowing the rights and terms of all securities in my Account. IPOWallet.Com will not be obligated to notify me of any upcoming expiration or redemption dates, or to take any other action on my behalf, except as required by law and applicable rules of regulatory authorities. I agree not to hold IPOWallet.Com liable for any Losses arising out of or relating to my failure to act on any Issuer reorganization or corporate action.
I am responsible for knowing about voluntary and mandatory reorganizations related to securities that I hold, including mergers, name changes, stock splits and reverse stock splits. IPOWallet.Com is not obligated to notify me of any such reorganizations before they occur. I understand that IPOWallet.Com will not allocate securities or funds resulting from reorganizations until such securities or funds are received by IPOWallet.Com from the paying agent or depository. I am solely responsible for knowing about periodic payment activities including cash, stock and optional dividends. IPOWallet.Com is not obligated to notify me of any such activities.
(j) Dividends, Interest and Subscription Rights.
IPOWallet.Com may receive periodic payments, such as dividends and interest, on my behalf, and will credit my Account on or shortly after the date funds are received by or on behalf of IPOWallet.Com.
7. TRADING SYSTEM

(a) Customer Responsibility.
I understand that I am responsible for all acts and omissions relating to the use of the Service, including all orders entered through the Service using my User ID and Passwords. I understand and agree that it is my responsibility to maintain the confidentiality of my User ID and Passwords and to change my Passwords regularly and to keep them confidential.

If I fail to notify IPOWallet.Com as soon as practicable when any of the above conditions occur, neither IPOWallet.Com nor any of its affiliates will be liable to me or to any other person for any claim with respect to the handling, mishandling or loss of any order.
(b) Security.
When I access the IPOWallet.Com Web site, IPOWallet.Com’s security system automatically protects my communications through server authorization and data encryption. Access requires password authentication to log onto the trading site and to actually place a trade.
(c) Market Data.
I understand that neither IPOWallet.Com nor any participating Data Provider guarantees or makes any warranty of any kind, expressed or implied, regarding the timeliness, sequence, accuracy or completeness of Market Data. I agree that IPOWallet.Com is not liable for any Losses (including lost opportunity or profits) arising out of or relating to: (i) any inaccuracy, defect or omission of the data; (ii) any error or delay in the transmission of such data; or (iii) interruption in any such data due to any cause beyond the control of IPOWallet.Com.
I also understand that each Data Provider asserts a proprietary interest in all of the Market Data it furnishes to the parties that disseminate the data. I will use Market Data (including Real Time Quotes) only for my individual non-business use. I will not provide Market Data to any person or entity. I understand that the Data Providers may enforce the terms of this Agreement directly against me. I acknowledge that I am responsible for payment of all applicable market data access fees.
