Special Service FeesExchange Process Fee —This is a ee Schwab chargesto o set ees imposed on us by national securitiesand sel -regulatory organizations or by U.S. option
exchanges.The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)assesses transaction ees on national securitiesexchanges and sel -regulatory organizations based onthe aggregate dollar amount o sales o certainsecurities. The SEC recalculates the amount o this
ee periodically—at least once per year but some-times more o ten. National securities exchanges andsel -regulatory organizations o set the transaction
ees by charging their member broker-dealers suchas Schwab, and we, in turn, o set this ee by charg-ing you an Exchange Process Fee or covered sell
transactions.U.S. option exchanges charge Schwab and other broker-dealers per-contract ees or purchases and sales o exchange-listed options. The exchanges may chargethese ees even on transactions executed on otherexchanges, which can result in multiple ees beingimposed on Schwab or a single transaction. Schwabo sets these ees by charging you a single ExchangeProcess Fee or each covered transaction.
A ter October 1, 2010, any Exchange Process Feethat appears on your trade confrmation or a sale o
an exchange-listed option will combine the o sets orthe ees charged both by the U.S. option exchangesand by the national securities and sel -regulatoryorganizations.
Schwab’s Exchange Process Fee will rise or all peri-odically depending upon the rates set by the SEC or
by the U.S. option exchanges, as applicable. Transaction Fee —This ee includes either ees charged
or purchases and sales o certain mutual undshares or ees charged or purchasing U.S. Treasuryobligations via the auction process. The amount o this ee will appear on your trade confrmation.
