 Part 3 Beneficiary Designation

Please read this information before completing this section. The total percentage for the primary beneficiary and contingent beneficiary (if applicable) designations must equal 100%. If no percentage allocations are provided, each primary beneficiary and/or contingent beneficiary (if applicable) will be divided equally. Please note, items marked with an asterisk are required to establish your beneficiary designation. You may wish to consult with a tax, legal or financial advisor before designating or modifying your beneficiary(ies) for your account.

All beneficiary designations will be per capita. Per capita means, the assets designated to a beneficiary will be divided equally among the remaining beneficiaries of the same status (primary or contingent) in the event he/she pre-deceases you. Per stirpes is not a permissible beneficiary designation.

∎ I hereby designate the following beneficiary(ies) to receive any assets remaining in my account upon my death, based on the percentage allocations provided below.

∎ If there is no designated primary beneficiary(ies) living at the time of my death, any remaining assets in my accounts shall be distributed to the surviving contingent beneficiary(ies), if applicable.

∎ If no primary or contingent beneficiary designation is in effect at the time of my death, or if all primary or contingent beneficiary(ies) have pre-deceased me, then my beneficiary shall be my estate.

∎ I reserve the right to change my beneficiary designation by filing an updated designation with the Service Agent, which will supersede any prior designation(s).

∎ If an attachment is required to complete this beneficiary designation, such attachment will contain the date, account number(s), required beneficiary information, and all appropriate signatures.

This section should be reviewed if the depositor is married, resides in a community or marital property state, and designates a beneficiary other than their spouse. It is the depositor’s responsibility to determine if this section applies. The depositor may need to consult with legal counsel. Neither the Custodian, Tri-Continental Corporation (the Fund) nor Columbia Management Investment Services Corp. (the Service Agent) is liable for any consequences resulting from a failure of the depositor to provide proper spousal consent.

∎ I am the spouse of the above named depositor and I acknowledge that I have received a full and reasonable disclosure of my spouse’s property and financial obligations. Due to any possible consequences of giving up my community or marital property interest in this IRA, I have been advised to see a tax professional or legal adviser.

∎ I hereby consent to the beneficiary designation(s) indicated above. I assume full responsibility for any adverse consequences that may result. No tax or legal advice was given to me by the Custodian, the Fund or the Service Agent.
