6 | Federal Income Tax Withholding 


Please read the attached “Rollover Explanation for Qualified Plans, 403(b) Plans and Governmental 457(b) Plans” and
the IRS “Form W-4R” documents for additional information regarding withholding requirements for your distribution. Your
withholding rate is determined by whether your payment is an “eligible rollover distribution”.
● For an “eligible rollover distribution”, the default withholding rate is 20%, and Invesco Investment Services, Inc.
(IIS) will automatically withhold this amount. You can choose a rate greater than 20% by entering the rate in the box
below. You may not choose a rate less than 20%. Note: The following are generally exempt from the 20% mandatory
withholding: distributions for direct rollovers, transfers of assets, RMD, return of excess contributions, financial hardship
and Substantially Equal Periodic Payments. Note: Indirect rollovers are subject to 20% withholding.
● For distributions other than eligible rollover distributions, the default withholding rate is 10%. You can choose to have a
different rate by entering a rate between 0% and 100% in the box below. Generally, you can’t choose less than 10% for
payments to be delivered outside the United States and its possessions, or if your only address of record is a P.O. Box.
● Withholding may apply to gains distributed from your designated Roth contribution account.
By providing a withholding percentage below and signing this distribution form, you acknowledge that you have read the
attached IRS Form W-4R, including the complete instructions on pages 1 & 2, the Marginal Rate Tables, and you would like
a rate of withholding different from the default withholding rate.

Beneficial Ownership Information Form


Use this form to provide controlling and beneficial owner(s) information for privately held
corporations, partnerships, LLC’s, charities, foundations, organizations, and statutory trust with
a beneficial owner(s) that owns 25% or more of the entity.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: To help the government fight financial crime, federal regulation requires Invesco to obtain,
verify, and record information about the beneficial owners of legal entity customers. Legal entities can be abused to
disguise involvement in terrorist financing, money laundering, tax evasion, corruption, fraud, and other financial crimes.
Requiring the disclosure of key individuals who own or control a legal entity (i.e., the beneficial owners) helps law
enforcement investigates and prosecute these crimes. If you fail to provide the requested information and/or if any of
the information cannot be confirmed, Invesco Investment Services, Inc. (IIS) reserves the right to redeem the account.
