Brown") to verify any representation contained therein, at its discretion. I will promptly notify Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown, in writing, of any material change in the above-stated information.

Accordingly, I understand that prior to engaging in any option transaction, I should review my present financial situation and determine whether it is advisable to incur the risk of loss associated with that particular investment. 1 I understand that when I engage in option trading I expose myself to certain, potentially substantial financial risks in addition to those identified on the front side of this form under the heading "Client(s) Strategy Requests," including but not limited to the following: — 1 understand that I should not buy an option unless I am able to sustain a total loss of the premium and transaction costs. — If I sell (write) covered options, I understand that I may forfeit participation in capital gains but retain risk of participation in capital losses in the underlying security. I understand that if an exercise is assigned to me, I may be forced to liquidate my position in the undertying security at a time which may be unfavorable to me. I aiso understand that I should not sell (write) a covered call option unless 1 am prepared to deliver the underiying security (or a security convertible, exchangeable, or exercisable into such underiying security) upon the exercise of the option. — If I sell (write) uncovered (naked) options, I risk substantial capital loss if, and to the extent that, the market price of the underiying security increases above the strike price of a call or decreases below the strike price of a put. If an exercise is assigned to me, it will, in all likelihood, be at a time which will force me to assume such a capital loss. I understand that I should not sell (write) a put option or an uncovered call option, especially an index option, unless 1 am able to sustain potentially unlimited losses. — I am aware that various factors may affect the price of an option contract, such as the relationship between the exercise price and market price ofthe underiying security, the time period remaining until the option expires, and the price fluctuation or other characteristics of the underlying security. — I am aware that the respective option exchanges ("Exchanges") may, in their discretion and from time to time, restrict transactions in particular options or the exercise of option contracts in the interest of maintaining a fair and orderiy market in option contracts or in the underiying security, for the protection of investors. I understand that I may not be able to close a position in the event that a secondary market in the option ceases to exist or the listing exchange restricts or suspends trading in the option. — I am aware that the Exchanges have established restrictions on certain opening purchase and sale transactions on the Exchanges which are considered to be restricted EFTA01445084 options. 2. I understand and agree that my account(s) with Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (also referred to herein as "Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown") will be handled in accordance with the Rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and the Exchanges on which listed options are traded and of the Options Clearing Corporation ("OCC"), as expressed in its prospectus. I am aware of and agree to be bound by such rules. In accordance with such rules: — 1 will not attempt to acquire at any time, either by myself or in concert with others, a position in excess of the limits prescribed from time to time by the Exchanges. For the purpose of computing such limits, I understand that total long call options and short put options of the same underiying stock must be added to compute the position limit. Similariy, total long put options and short call options of the same underiying stock must be added to compute the position limit. — I will not attempt to exercise, either by myself or in concert with others, during any period of five consecutive business days, a quantity in excess of the limit prescribed by the Exchanges. — I understand that if found in violation of either the position limit or the exercise limit I may be subject to sanctions imposed by the Exchange involved and that these sanctions may include liquidation of the positions in violation. 3 I understand that Deutsche Bank Alex, Brown has policies which may be more restrictive than or impose requirements in addition to those of the Exchanges, FINRA or the New York Stock Exchange. I agree to abide by such policies as a condition of doing business with Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown. I understand that these policies include but are not limited to the following: — Settlement date for all option trades is the business day following trade date. Notwithstanding this provision, Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown may, in its discretion, elect not to accept purchase orders in options unless cash equal to the purchase price has first been deposited in my account, and may elect not to accept opening sale orders in options unless I have first deposited in my account either the required margin or unrestricted negotiable shares of the underlying stock in an amount specified by Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown. — Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown may refuse orders to trade options in my account if there are restrictions against my account, including restrictions regarding trading in the underlying security, or for any other reason, at its discretion. — Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown has set trading and exercise deadlines which correspond to deadlines established by the OCC and will accept no responsibility for completion EFTA01445085 of orders entered by clients after such deadline. — Margin, either in cash or securities, posted by me against short option positions, may not be included in my margin account equity or interest computations. Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown may, in turn, use these deposits to secure said short positions with the OCC. — Option exercise notices assigned to Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown in respect of a short positron in option contracts in customer accounts shall be allocated to customers of Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown on an automated random basis. I understand that if I am assigned, the assignment will be processed as a sale (in the case of a call) or a purchase (in the case of a put), settling two business days from the date of assignment (except for non-equity options, which settle for cash on the day of assignment) and that I am obligated to deliver the underlying stock or required cash to Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown no later than settlement date. 4. 1 understand that margin requiremerrts exist in connection with certain options and I agree to meet all margin calls as made by Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown. I understand that Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown, in computing the margin requirements for option positions, may impose a higher margin requirement for individual option positions than other investment firms, and that Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown will inform me of its existing margin requirements for option posi'tions upon request. In the event I do not meet margin calls promptly, Deutsche Bank Alex.

Please Initial Here: 0127 OM 14(05/11) EFTA01445087 EFTA01445088 Special Statement for Uncovered Option Writers Deutsche Bank Alex.Brown A Division of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. m Account Name Southern Trust Company Inc. There are special risks associated with uncovered option writing which expose the investor to potentially significant loss. I understand that this type of strategy may not be suitable for all customers approved for options transactions. I also understand each of the following: I. The potential loss of uncovered call writing is unlimited, since there is no upper limit on a stock's price and the loss to a writer of an uncovered call equals the stock price minus the exercise price. The writer of an uncovered call is in an extremely risky position, and may incur large losses if the value of the underlying instrument increases above the exercise price. Such a loss can exceed the equity in the call writer's account. 2. The potential loss from writing uncovered put options is also substantial. The writer of an uncovered put option bears a risk of loss if the value of the underlying instrument declines below the exercise price. However, since stock prices cannot be lower than zero, the maximum loss is equal to the strike price of the put sold less the premium received for that put. Such loss could be substantial if there is a significant decline in the value of the undedying instrument and can exceed the equity in the put writer's account. 3. For combination writing, where the investor writes both a put and a call on the same undedying instrument, the potential risk is unlimited and can exceed the equity in the option writer's account. 4. Uncovered option writing is thus suitable only for the knowledgeable investor who understands the risks, has the financial capacity and willingness to incur potentially substantial losses, and has sufficient liquid assets to meet applicable margin requirements. In this regard, if the value of the underlying instrument moves against an uncovered writer's options position, the investor's broker may request significant additional margin payments. If an investor does not make such margin payments, the broker may liquidate stock or options positions in the investor's account, with little or no prior notice in accordance with the investor's margin agreement. 5. The option writer may not be able to rely on the secondary market. If a secondary market in options were to become unavailable, investors could not engage in closing transactions, and an option writer would remain obligated until expiration or assignment. 6. The writer of an American-style option is subject to being assigned an exercise at any time after he has written the option until EFTA01445089 the option expires. By contrast, the writer of a European-style option is subject to exercise assignment only during the exercise period. NOTE: It is expected that the person(s) signing below will read the booklet entitled Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options available from your broker. Particular attention is directed to the chapter entitled "Risks of Buying and Writing Options." This statement is not intended to enumerate all of the risks entailed in writing uncovered options. I have read and understand the above statement regarding the special risks associated with uncovered option writing and represent that such trading is suitable in light of my investment objectives, which include speculation, as well as my financial situation, risk tol^rantTe^and knowledge. I understand that you will rely on the representations I have rnade herein and in the Option Agfeement andlApproval Form I provided to you in determining whether to approve my account for the options strategie5/<^ave elected ^nd I hereby_cg^^-+h6^truth and accuracy of such statements.
