Schwab Bank makes its best effort to identify those ATM fees eligible for rebate based on information it receives from Visa and ATM operators. In the event that you have not received a rebate for a fee that you believe is eligible, please call a Schwab Bank Client Service Specialist for assistance at 888-403-9000 (or for clients of independent investment advisors, a Schwab Alliance Service team Member at 800-515-2157 ). Schwab Bank reserves the right to modify or discontinue the ATM surcharge rebate at any time.

If you use your Card to withdraw foreign currency from an ATM or to pay for a purchase with foreign currency Schwab Bank charges your account for the U.S. dollar equivalent of the transaction. Depending on the specific arrangements that are in place, the exchange rate and calculation of the U.S. dollar equivalent will be done by the bank at which you conduct the transaction, the network to which the ATM belongs, or Visa. The bank or network may also charge a fee. Schwab Bank does not assess foreign transaction fees (i.e., a fee to convert U.S. dollars to local currency) to debit card holders. See the Schwab Bank Visa Debit Card Agreement for details.

4. Schwab Bank's Investor Checking account has no account maintenance or activity fees. Fees may be assessed for additional services such as custom check orders, outgoing wires, or rush delivery.

5. Funds deposited at Charles Schwab Bank, SSB, are insured, in aggregate, up to $250,000 based on account ownership type by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

Please read the Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Solutions™ disclosure brochures for important information, pricing, and disclosures related to the Schwab Intelligent Portfolios and Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium programs.

Schwab Intelligent Portfolios® and Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium® are offered through Charles Schwab & Co. Inc. ("Schwab"), a dually registered investment advisor and broker-dealer. Portfolio management services are provided by Charles Schwab Wealth Management, Inc. ("CSWM"). Schwab and CSWM are subsidiaries of The Charles Schwab Corporation.

There are no advisory fees or commissions charged for Schwab Intelligent Portfolios. For Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium, there is a $300 initial planning fee upon enrollment and a $30-per-month advisory fee, charged quarterly, as outlined in the Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Solutions™ disclosure brochures. Participants in Schwab Intelligent Portfolios and Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Premium (collectively, "Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Solutions") do incur direct and indirect costs. These include ETF operating expenses, which are the management and other fees charged by the underlying ETFs. Schwab does not charge an advisory fee for the SIP Program due to the revenue Schwab Trust generates from the cash allocation (an indirect cost). The portfolios include a cash allocation to FDIC-insured Deposit Accounts at Charles Schwab Trust, SSB ("Schwab Trust"). Schwab Trust earns income from these deposits, and the more significant the cash allocation, the more income Schwab Trust earns. Lower interest rates paid on the cash allocation result in lower yields. Some cash alternatives outside Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Solutions offer higher yields. Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Solutions places funds in Schwab ETFs, and Charles Schwab Management Inc., a Schwab affiliate, receives management fees on those ETFs. It also places funds in third-party ETFs, and Schwab receives compensation from some of those ETFs for providing shareholder services, as well as from market centers where ETF trade orders are routed for execution. Fees and expenses will affect performance, and participants should consider all program requirements and costs before enrolling. For a complete overview of expenses, performance impact, conflicts of interest, and compensation received by Schwab and its affiliates, please refer to the Schwab Intelligent Portfolios Solutions disclosure brochures.
