If you choose to borrow funds from DB51, you must open a margin aocoum and sign the attached Margin Agreement along with the Account Agreement. If the securities in your 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 orour 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.

You elso will be responsible for any shortfall in the account alter such s sale, including costs and interest accrued. 3. DBSI can sell your securities or other assets whhout 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 OBS! has contacted a Client and provided a specific date by which the Client can meet a margin call, DBSI 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 to choose which securities or ether assets in your account(s) are liquidated or sold to meet 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 'howls' maintenance reergin mquirements at any time and is net Tottered to provide you 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 DBSI to liquidate or sell securities in your account(s). 6. You are not entitled to an extension of time on a margin call. Whys an extension of time to meet margin requirements may be available to clients under certain conditions, a client does not have a right to the extension. 7. Short Sales are margin tiansactions and ievolve the risks deticrihed above. A short sale means any sale of securities that you do not own or which are borrowed for your account ('Short Sales").
