RE1AIN A COPY FORYOUR,RECORDS
'
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (OBSI) is furnishing this docuMent to you, the Client, to provide some basic facts about
purchasing securities on margin, and to alert you to the risks involved with trading securities in a margin account. Before
trading in securities in a margin account, please review this Margin Disclosure carefully (which is to be read in
conjunction with the entire Account Agreement). Please call your Client Advisor with any questions or concerns
regarding the use of margin.
When you purchase securities, you may pay for the securities in full or you may barrow part of the purchase price from
DBSI (via a margin loan offered by Pershing). You may also borrow for purposes other than the purchase of securities
based on the value of fully paid securities held in the Account. ff you choose to borrow funds from DBSI, you must open
a margin account end sign the attached Margin Agreement along with the Account Agreement. If the securities in youc
account decline in value• so does the value of the collateral supporting your loan, and, as a result, DBSI can take action,
such as issuing a margin call and/or selling securities or other assets in any of your accounts (as provided in the Margin
Agreement) in order to maintain the required equity in the account.
It is important to fully understand the risks involved in trading securities on margin. These risks include the following:
1.
You can lose more funds than you deposit in the Margin Account. A decline in the value of securities that are
purchased on margin may require you to provide additional funds to DBSI to avoid the forced sale of those
securities or other securities or assets in your account(slt.
2. DBSI can force the sale of securities or other assets in yotir accouM(s). If the equity in your account falls below
the maintenance margin requirements, or DBSI's higher 'house" requirements, DBSI can sell the securities or other
assets in any of your accounts held at DBSI to cover themargin deficiency. You also will be responsible for any
shortfall in the account after such a sale, including costs and interest accrued.
3. DBSI can sell your securities or other assets without contacting you. Some investors mistakenly believe that a
firm must contact them for a margin call to be valid, and that the firm cannot liquidate securities or other assets in
their accounts to meet the call unless the firm has contacted them first. This is not the case. Generally. DBSI does
attempt to notify its Clients of margin calls, but it is not required to do so. However, even if ()BSI has contacted a
Client and provided a specific dale by which the Client can meet a margin cell, DEISI can still take necessary steps to
protect its financial interests, including immediately selling the securities without notice to the Client.
4.
You are not entitled es choose which securities or other assets in your accounts) are liquidated or sold to moot a
margin call. Because the securities are collateral for the. margin loan, 0651 has the right to decide which security to
sell in order to protect its interests.
5. DBSI can increase its "house" trainteriemie margin requirements at any time sno Is not required to provide yoo
advance written notice. These changes in firm policy often take effect immediately and may result in the issuance
of a maintenance margin call. Your failure to satisfy the call may cause 0651 to liquidate or sell securities in
your account(s).
6. You are not entitled to an extension of time on a margin call. While an extension of time to meet morgin
requirements may be available to clients under certain conditions, a client does not have a right to the extension.
7.
Short Sales are margin transaction and involve the risks described above A short salt means any sate of
securities that you do not own or which are borrowed for your account (Short Sales"). Because short sales are
margin transactions, such transactions are subject to the same risks and terms and conditions of margin transactions.
8. DBSI and/or Pershing may loan any securities which collateralize your margin loan. Securities held in a margin
account may be lent, to 0851, to Pershing or to others, and may loo pledged, replodged, hypothecated or
rehypothecated by MI and/or Pershing, without notice to you. DBSI and/or Pershing may do so without retaining
In its possession or control for delivery a like amount of similar Securities and Other Property and in doing so, are
authorized to rotain certain benefits, including interest on your collateral posted for such loans. While your securities
are loaned out, you will lose voting rights attendant to such securities. Pershing and/or DBSI may receive
compensation in connection with then transactions. For additional information on rehypotheoation, please refer to
the Margin Addendum.
