Expiration Date Under the Professional Investor system

TLCM specifies September 30th (even for years in which this is not a business day) to be the Expiration Date on the effective period for changes from Client Other than Professional Investor (hereinafter “General Investor”) status to Professional Investor status under the Professional Investor system pursuant to the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, a date no later than one year after the acceptance date (as defined below). (This does not apply to customers for whom TLCM has approved a change from General Investor to Professional Investor status by July 14, 2011.)

Under the Professional Investor system pursuant to the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act, clients are categorized as Professional Investors or General Investors. For Professional Investors, certain restrictions on financial-instruments business operators do not apply, including restrictions on advertising and other information as well as obligations to deliver documents to clients prior to and upon the conclusion of a contract.

Upon request, clients may change from Professional Investor to General Investor status or vice versa, subject to approval by TLCM through the designated procedures.

Transfer from General Investor to Professional Investor status is effective as of the date on which TLCM accepts the transfer (“acceptance date” hereinafter) through the Expiration Date.

This Expiration Date must be a specific date no later than one year after the acceptance date. As noted above, TLCM has designated September 30th (even in years for which this is not a business day) as the Expiration Date (hereinafter “announced date”), a date no later than one year after the acceptance date. (For this reason, in certain cases, the effective period until the Expiration Date will be less than one year, depending on the client's acceptance date.)

Note that the announced date above does not apply to clients for whom TLCM has accepted a request to change from General Investor to Professional Investor status by July 14, 2011 (i.e., clients for whom transfer procedures have already been completed as of the date of announcement of this notice). In such cases, the Expiration Date specified in the relevant transfer procedures shall apply instead.

Additionally, even after a change from General Investor to Professional Investor status through the designated procedures, clients will revert to General Investor status from the day after the Expiration Date and must therefore apply for renewal of their Professional Investor status. They may do this starting one month before the Expiration Date (or at least one day after the acceptance date if there is less than one month between the acceptance date and the Expiration Date).

Note that if the change from General Investor to Professional Investor status was renewed on or after July 15, 2011, the uniform Expiration Date after this renewal for all clients, including those for whom TLCM has approved a request to change status from General Investor to Professional Investor by July 14, 2011 (i.e., clients for whom transfer procedures have already been completed as of the date of the announcement of this notice), shall be September 30th (including years for which this is not a business day), a date no later than one year after the previous Expiration Date.
