FEDERAL INCOME TAX BACKUP WITHHOLDING
In order to prevent the application of federal income tax backup withholding, each subscriber must provide the Company with a correct Taxpayer Identification Number (“TIN”). An individual’s social security number is his or her TIN. The TIN should be provided in the space provided in the Substitute Form W-9 below.
Under federal income tax law, any person who is required to furnish his or her correct TIN to another person, and who fails to comply with such requirements, may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS.
Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained from the IRS. Certain taxpayers, including all corporations, are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements.
If the shareholder has not been issued a TIN and has applied for a TIN or intends to apply for a TIN in the near future, “Applied For” should be written in the space provided for the TIN on the Substitute Form W-9.
SUBSTITUTE FORM W-9
Under penalties of perjury, I certify that: (i) The number shown on this form is my correct Taxpayer Identification Number (or I am waiting for a Taxpayer Identification Number to be issued to me), and (ii) I am not subject to backup withholding because: (a) I am exempt from backup withholding; or (b) I have not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) that I am subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends; or (c) the IRS has notified me that I am no longer subject to backup withholding.
You must cross out item (ii) above if you have been notified by the IRS that you are subject to backup withholding because of underreporting interest or dividends on your tax return. However, if after being notified by the IRS that you were subject to backup withholding you received another notification from the IRS that you are not longer subject to backup withholding, do not cross out item (ii).
Each subscriber should complete this section.
