OPENING AND MAINTAINING AN ACCOUNT. To open an Account, you must be least 18 years old, have a Social Security Number or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number and have a physical street address in the United States of America. Alternatively, your Account application will be considered on a case by case basis if you have a physical street address in the U.S. territories of Puerto Rico, United States Virgin Islands or American Samoa (“Specified U.S. Territories”); or a military or embassy address on a U.S. military base or at a U.S. embassy (i.e., an Army/Air Post Office, Fleet Post Office, or Diplomatic Post Office address) (“U.S. Jurisdictions”). You may not use a post office box (other than on a U.S. military base or at a Diplomatic Post Office) as an address to open an Account. Accounts may only be opened by natural persons and may only be used for personal, family, or household purposes. Accounts may not be opened or maintained by businesses or used for business purposes. Accounts may not be opened in the name of a trust or other legal entity or by a fiduciary (e.g., executor, conservator, guardians, trustees, etc.). If, however, a fiduciary is appointed by a court or by operation of law after Account opening, we may allow the fiduciary to access and control an Account on a temporary basis; thereafter, the Account will be closed.
OPENING AND MAINTAINING AN ACCOUNT. Who Can Open an Account? An Account may be established by an individual, certain legal entities, a custodian under a State’s UGMA or UTMA statute, or the trustee of a trust. The Account Owner must be at least 18 years of age with a valid Social Security number or a taxpayer identification number. The Account Owner must also have a valid, permanent address in the U.S. (not a P.O. Box). There are no income limitations for the Account Owner to participate in, or benefit from, the Program. There may be only one Account Owner per Account (joint ownership is not allowed).

In addition, an Account may be established by a state or local government or a tax- exempt organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code as part of a scholarship program operated by such government or organization. If the prospective Account Owner is a trust, the trustee should consult with his or her legal and tax advisors before establishing an Account. This Program Disclosure Statement does not address the income or other tax consequences of investments in the Program made by a trust, nor does it address the propriety of a trust making such an investment under state trust law. The Program is not responsible for determining if the individual listed as the trustee has the authority to open an Account in such capacity or whether trust assets can be used to open such Account. Accounts are only offered by the Distributor and through brokers or other financial advisors. You should contact your broker or other financial advisor to determine if they offer Accounts.

OPENING AND MAINTAINING AN ACCOUNT. General The Program is open to both residents and non-residents of the State of Colorado. Regardless of your state of residency, you may participate in and receive benefits (other than Colorado state tax benefits) from the Program. However, if neither the Account Owner nor the Beneficiary is a Colorado resident (either when the Account is opened or because the Account Owner or the Beneficiary moves to a new state), the Account Owner may be required to pay an annual Account maintenance fee. See “Fees and Expenses—Account Fees.” The Colorado income tax deduction for contributions to the Program, as described herein, is available only to Colorado taxpayers investing in Colorado plans under current law, which may be changed through future legislative or judicial action. Section 529 plans offered by states other than the State of Colorado may offer tax or other benefits to taxpayers or residents of those other states that are not available with regard to the Program. Taxpayers and residents of states other than the State of Colorado should consider the tax treatment and other benefits available in their home state, if any, before making an investment decision.
