SELF-DIRECTED IRA PROVISIONS. 10.01 Investments, Transfers and Withdrawals of Assets in the Custodial Account:
(a) Depositor’s Account is “Self-Directed” What does “Self-Directed” mean? Self-Directed means Depositor, as the Holder of the Custodial Account, is solely responsible for the investment of all assets within Depositor’s Account by giving Custodian directives to take any action on behalf of the Custodial Account. That means Depositor is responsible for the selection, management, monitoring and retention of all investments held within Depositor’s Account. The investments Depositor selects may involve a high degree of risk, and the Custodian will provide no investment advice nor make any investigation or determination as to the prudence, viability, suitability, legality, or safety of the investments that Depositor selects. The assets selected for investment are solely Depositor’s responsibility. This requires that Depositor assures themselves of the financial soundness and appropriateness of the investment for Depositor’s Account and retirement objectives and Depositor should have all investments reviewed by a competent legal, tax, and/or financial advisor.
(b) The Depositor shall have exclusive responsibility for, and control over, any and all investment of the assets of the Depositor’s Custodial Account.

After the Depositor’s death, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s beneficiary(ies) shall have the right to direct the investment of the Depositor’s Custodial Account assets, subject to the same conditions that applied to the Depositor in the Depositor’s lifetime under this Agreement.

The Depositor shall select the type of investment for the Depositor’s assets, provided, however, that the Depositor’s selection of investments shall be limited to t...
