A designated beneficiary is an individual who is designated by you in writing as a beneficiary of this Traditional IRA in a manner acceptable to the Custodian or designated as a beneficiary under the terms of the plan agreement.

If life expectancy payments are elected, the payments must begin by December 31 of the first calendar year following your death. However, if your surviving spouse is your sole designated beneficiary, they may delay the first distribution until December 31 of the year you would have attained age 70½ (if your date of birth is before July 1, 1949), age 72 (if your date of birth is after June 30, 1949 and before January 1, 1951), age 73 (if your date of birth is after December 31, 1950 and before January 1, 1960), or age 75 (if your date of birth is after December 31, 1959), if later.
