The sole purpose of this material is to inform internal personnel within the JPMorgan Private Bank J.P.Morgan 0 EFTA01145546 Please keep in mind This material is intended to help you understand the tax and financial consequences of the concepts and strategies discussed here in very general terms. However, the strategies found herein often involve complex tax and legal issues. Only your own attorney and other tax advisors can help you consider whether the ideas illustrated here are appropriate for your individual circumstances. JPMorgan Chase & Co. does not practice law, and does not give tax, accounting or legal advice. We will, however, be pleased to consult with you and your legal and tax advisors as you move forward with your own planning. CONFIDENTIAL J.P.Morgan 1 EFTA01145547 Preferred Partnership Freeze (PPF) is for investors interested in enhanced wealth transfer opportunities using a Delaware Statutory Trust Purpose: to "freeze" the value of assets that will be included in the senior generation's estate and shift the excess appreciation to the junior generation(s) without additional transfer tax. • It enables investors to transfer to beneficiaries anticipated appreciation in a tax-efficient manner while retaining a large portion of the investment and a fixed return • Investment is divided into Managing Units, Preferred Units and Residual Units • Preferred Units represent majority of initial asset value and carry a fixed (cumulative, non-compounding) rate of return • Residual Units represent balance of initial asset value plus anticipated appreciation in excess of the preferred return • Residual Units are gifted and/or sold to beneficiaries CONFIDENTIAL J.P.Morgan 2 EFTA01145548 Structure of Preferred Partnership Freeze 0 Senior family members transfer assets into a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) 0 DST issues multiple classes of units: Managing Units: general management control and collective 1% economic interest O Preferred Units and Residual Units: limited management rights and collective remaining 99% economic interest - Preferred Units provide a fixed, cumulative annual return to senior family members equal to the annual preferred payment on the Preferred Units (can be deferred for 4 years) and a fixed value on liquidation. Preferred Units provide greater security but limit participation in appreciation of the assets - Residual Units provide excess appreciation after satisfying Managing Units' 1% interest, and the Preferred Units preferred return. Residual Units provide less security but accrue the capital, income and appreciation beyond the fixed return to Preferred Units J.P.Morgan Trust Company of Delaware acts as administrative trustee Senior family members initially receive all DST units for their contribution 0 Assets L. Senior family members' Managing 0 Preferred Units Units 0 DST2 Managing Units: 1% Preferred Units: 79% Residual Units Residual Units: 20% J.P.Morgan Trust Company of Delaware (Trustee) J.P.Morgan ' Two members will initially capitalize DST to secure partnership tax treatment 2 Member 1 receives 0.5% voting managing units plus all preferred units and residual; member 2 retains the other 0.5% voting managing unit. 3 EFTA01145549 Structure of Preferred Partnership Freeze O To maximize the benefits of the PPF, senior family members may gift or sell the Residual Units at discounted value' to beneficiaries outright or to trust for their benefit; can also gift or sell Preferred Units over time J.P.Morgan Trust Company of Delaware administers distribution and manages investments subject to Managing Unit holders. Investment Manager directs Trustee as to investment of assets. Managing Unit holders control important voting decisions. Preferred and Residual Unit holders have limited voting rights. z LL z Appoints Investment Managers and Trustee Senior family members Managing Units Managing Units: 1% Preferred I Preferred Payments Units DST Preferred Units: 79% Residual Units: 20% J.P.Morgan Trust Company of Delaware (Trustee) 0 Directs trustee Investment Manager J.P.Morgan J.P. Morgan can provide names for a professional appraisal O Residual Units Beneficiaries' Trust 4 EFTA01145550 PPF capitalizes on Delaware's favorable laws and continuity of asset management across generations... • Limited liability for all Unit holders, even if they participate in management • Confidentiality of all Unit holders is preserved as only the name of the trust and the name and address of the Delaware trustee need to be disclosed • Dissolution does not necessarily occur upon the death, incapacity or bankruptcy of a unit holder • Flexibility to react to changes in regulatory or tax laws to facilitate the changing needs of trust participants • Trustee is allowed broad investment authority to employ Modern Portfolio Theory and flexibility of delegating investment decisions to other advisors J.P.Morgan 5 EFTA01145551 ...and J.P.Morgan's ability to offer bundled delivery makes the PPF a cost-efficient solution • The formation of a preferred partnership freeze is simple and economical — established by filing a Certificate of Trust with the Delaware Secretary of State • Investment management costs can be reduced through economies of scale • J.P.Morgan's fiduciary system provides the following: — documentation of the value of units transferred among family members - attendance to tax compliance - maintenance of the records of the preferred partnership freeze strategy to preserve its integrity for tax purposes as a separate legal entity CONFIDENTIAL J.P.Morgan 6 EFTA01145552 Delaware administration responsibilities • Account set-up • Ongoing communication - Administrative matters including record keeping and market value statements - Fiduciary oversight for regulatory and planning considerations • Account administration - Investment maintenance (i.e. subscription agreements and offering memoranda) • Ongoing communication with Managing Unit holders and investment manager - Custody including safekeeping, income collection, and optional trading platform • Responsibility for liquidations, distributions, and withdrawals - Preferred payments, tax distributions, redemptions • Executing distribution transactions including deferral of preferred payments • Evaluating distribution/redemption requests from Unit holders • Determining amounts and timing of all distributions • Obtaining valuations to support distributions, as necessary • Complying with Internal Revenue Code Section 2701 rules and provisions of estate freeze strategy documents • Cash-flow analysis for preferred payments • Maintaining required income/principal ledgers • Delegated responsibility for tax compliance - Compilation of partnership return work papers — Review and execution of partnership returns and K-1s — Evaluation of filing positions including Section 754 elections CONFIDENTIAL J.P.Morgan 7 EFTA01145553 Transfer tax considerations • Internal Revenue Code Section 2701 describes and sanctions the estate freeze strategy • Gift tax value of Residual Units must be ≥ 10% of the capital account funding value of estate freeze strategy • Discounts may apply to funding, calculation of the effective preferred rate and valuation of Residual Units • Appreciation in estate freeze assets exceeding effective preferred payment rate accrues to benefit of Residual Unit holders without causing additional gift or estate tax • Preferred Payments: - Based on prevailing "Market Rate" of return, typically determined by valuation professional's appraisal and may be deferred for 4 years on a rolling basis - Nominal preferred rate may be reduced by discounted funding, deferral of preferred payments and benefit of all capital (including common units) at work to produce amount necessary to pay this lower effective rate • PPF may be less likely to be subject to IRS scrutiny than standard family limited partnerships. - Reinforced by the independent Trustee's control over distributions z 0 LL z V J.P.Morgan 8 EFTA01145554 Income tax considerations • PPF: Delaware Statutory Trust classified as partnership for income tax purposes • Contributions: generally in-kind contributions do not cause immediate gain recognition - Exceptions may apply, such as: • Investment company rules - diversification • Property contribution subject to liabilities assumed by partnership - Built-in gains: subsequent partnership sale allocations of pre-contribution gain to contributor • Basis (if tax free contribution): — Partnership's basis in assets same as contributor's basis — Partner's basis equals cash plus adjusted basis of contributed assets • Allocations: - Profits: First to Common Managing Units and Residual Units allocable for prior aggregate losses, second to Preferred Units for prior aggregate losses, third to Managing Units percentage interest and Preferred Units' cumulative return, and fourth to Residual Units - Losses: First to Common Managing Units percentage interest and Common Residual Units until reduced to zero then second to Preferred Units until reduced to zero • Preferred payments: made only from net cumulative tax profits from inception, so Preferred Units have taxable income up to nominal return when partnership has taxable income - Not guaranteed payments which are required regardless of income and which are taxed as ordinary income with partnership realized events when satisfied in-kind - Non-taxable in-kind distributions or borrowed cash can be used to satisfy timely preferred payments • Distributions: — Cash: distribution taxable typically as capital gains only if exceeds basis - Security: distribution generally not taxable event • Exception - Built-in gains within 7 years of contribution unless contributor reacquires back originally contributed property — Non-liquidating distribution: partnership inside basis allocation — Liquidating distribution: partner's outside basis allocation; generally non taxable event unless cash exceeds outside basis — Disguised sale presumption: taxable event presumption for distributions within two years of contribution • Mergers with Family Limited Partnerships J.P.Morgan 9 EFTA01145555 Assumptions for PPF analysis • $16,000,000 in funding • 15% valuation discount on asset due to illiquidity and lack of marketability • 1 %/79%/20% Managing/Preferred/Residual Unit split • 15% estimated total returns • Estimated 7.5% mandatory fixed annual payments attributable to Preferred Units2 • Residual Units gifted3 to beneficiaries' trust at discounted value: — 10% illiquidity discount on overall value of DST - 30% additional discount on value of Residual Units • Undiscounted value of gift: $3,200,000; discounted value: $2,720,000 • Client has already utilized lifetime gift exemption • Gift tax rate (2011): 35% • Estate tax rate (2021): 55% • 4 year deferral of mandatory fixed annual payments to Preferred Units • Grantor retains income tax liability due to grantor trust status in beneficiaries' trust3 CONFIDENTIAL J.P.Morgan Note: Numbers are for illustrative purposes only. 'Return does not consider yield versus appreciation since income tax is not considered. Return estimate is for illustrative purposes only. Actual return will vary. =Effective hurdle rate: 2.2%; 7.5% preferred coupon rate reduced by 15% discount on underlying asset, plus benefit of additional residual and managing value to fund coupon payments, benefit of deferral periods, less effect of cost of gift tax. 3Units can be gifted or sold.
