2 Dealing charges These charges relate to the following: Accounts: Investment ISA / MarketMaster / SIPP / Pension Trader / Company Dealing Investment Types: All investment types except Funds (Unit Trusts and Open Ended Investment Companies (OEICs)), non European Quoting Service (EQS) International Securities Online Telephone Deals per month Charge per deal Deal value Charge per deal Up to , ,501-2, ,501-20, ,001-75, ,001-1,000, % 1,000,000+ on application Calculation of online dealing charges The charge per deal rate you pay in each month is determined by the number of deals you place in the previous calendar month. Each time you hit a new deals per month tier, you will be switched to the lower charge per deal rate. In order to remain at the new rate you must maintain the required number of deals per month. The number of telephone and online deals you place are consolidated when calculating your deal count, deals per month tier for online charges. You can link other accounts to your MarketMaster to access the lower online charge per deal. If you link an ISA and/ or SIPP to your MarketMaster, the deals you place across all your accounts will contribute towards your monthly deal count. You can also link Investment ISA, SIPP, Pension Trader or MarketMaster accounts held by members of your family resident at the same address as the primary MarketMaster account holder. These accounts are only permitted to be linked to one MarketMaster account at any one time. All deals made in linked accounts contribute to your monthly deal count within your primary MarketMaster, helping you to reach the lower charge per deal quicker. Automatic dividend reinvestment (ADR) If you choose to use our ADR service, we will invest all cash dividends into more shares in the underlying company (minimum 10 investment). We will charge a flat rate of 1% of the deal value (minimum charge 1; maximum charge 7.50). ADR is only available on UK equities. 2

3 Charging when paying into your ISA You can only pay into your ISA using cash. If you wish to pay into your ISA using shares you already own we will need to sell your shares, put the cash from your sale(s) into your ISA, then buy the shares back within your ISA. Selling your shares is free, we will only apply a dealing charge when we buy your shares back and this will be at telephone rates.
