Risks, Prohibitions and General Information Concerning Option Trading
I understand that options transactions involve a high degree of risk and
offer no guarantee of gain or assurance against loss. 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

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
