Box 484, Jersey City, NJ 07303-0484 before you begin trading options. Due to the short-term nature, weekly options have specific risks including illiquidity and the risk that the underlying stock could be sold at the exercise price when the current market value is greater than the exercise price the call writer will receive. Price changes can occur quickly in the underlying stock and could generate significant changes to any potential profit & losses and limit the time to make adjustments. Moreover, there are specific risks associated with trading spreads including substantial commissions, because it involves at least twice the number of contracts as a long or short position and because spreads are almost invariably closed out prior to expiration. Also, there are special risks associated with uncovered options writing which expose the investor to potentially significant loss. Please read the Special Statement for Uncovered Options Writers before you trade. Because of the importance of tax considerations to all options transactions, the investor considering options should consult his/her tax adviser as to how taxes affect the outcome of covered call writing. Commissions and other costs may be a significant factor. An Options investor may lose the entire amount of their investment in a relatively short period of time. 12 The options exchanges list equity options (including ETF options) having approximately one week to expiration following their initial listing. These options are called Weekly Options Series or Weeklys. Because these options have such a short expiry, the options exchanges have the ability to list different series from week to week, but please note that Weeklys are not eligible to be listed for each and every week of a month. For the convenience of market participants, OCC publishes a list of newly added and newly delisted Weekly Options Series for equity options. This list is compiled from sources believed reliable, but certain Weeklys could be included in the list or omitted from the list in error. Also, changes in listing decisions by the exchanges may not be immediately known or reflected in the list. You should always check with your brokerage firm or an exchange directly if you have any questions about the availability of any particular Weekly Options Series. 13 Regular margin accounts do not include option market value in margin equity. Therefore, trade costs and proceeds directly impact margin equity because there is no corresponding margin market value to offset the trade costs and proceeds. For comparison purposes to Portfolio Margin, initial and maintenance requirements shown here for regular margin have been adjusted to account for this impact on margin equity.

Additional Features Direct-Access Options Trading Route orders directly to all major options exchanges. 9 Dedicated Options Support Get help when you need it from options specialists. 5 Trading on margin involves risk, including the possible loss of more money than you have deposited. In addition, E*TRADE Securities can force the sale of any securities in your account without contacting you if your equity falls below required levels, and you are not entitled to an extension of time in the event of a margin call. Please read more information regarding the risks of trading on margin at etrade.com/margin. When trading on margin, an investor borrows a portion of the funds he/she uses to buy stocks to try to take advantage of opportunities in the market. He/she pays interest on the funds borrowed until the loan is repaid. For each trade made in a margin account, we use all available cash and sweep funds first and then charge the customer the current margin interest rate on the balance of the funds required to fill the order. Due to the increased leverage enabled by portfolio margin, only experienced investors with $100,000 or more of account equity and Level 4 Options Trading approval are eligible. This level of equity must be maintained in the account at all times
