Bond Account Disclosure
*This yield is the current average, annualized yield to worst (YTW) across all
ten bonds in the Bond Account, before fees. Because the YTW of each bond is a
function of that bond’s market price, which can fluctuate, your yield at time of
purchase may be different from the yield shown here and your YTW is not “locked
in” until the time of purchase. A bond’s YTW is not guaranteed; you can earn
less than that YTW if you do not hold the bonds to maturity or the issuer
defaults. Learn more.

Market data powered by Xignite.

All investments involve the risk of loss and the past performance of a security
or a financial product does not guarantee future results or returns. You should
consult your legal, tax, or financial advisors before making any financial
decisions. This material is not intended as a recommendation, offer, or
solicitation to purchase or sell securities, open a brokerage account, or engage
in any investment strategy.

Stocks, ETFs, Options, Bonds.
Self-directed brokerage accounts and brokerage services for US-listed,
registered securities, options, and Bonds, except for treasury securities
offered through Jiko Securities, Inc., are offered to self-directed customers by
Open to the Public Investing, Inc. (“Public Investing”), a registered
broker-dealer and member of FINRA & SIPC. Additional information about your
broker can be found by clicking here. Public Investing is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Public Holdings, Inc. (“Public Holdings”). This is not an offer,
solicitation of an offer, or advice to buy or sell securities or open a
brokerage account in any jurisdiction where Public Investing is not registered.
Securities products offered by Public Investing are not FDIC insured. Apex
Clearing Corporation, our clearing firm, has additional insurance coverage in
excess of the regular SIPC limits. Additional information can be found here.

Options.
Certain requirements must be met in order to trade options. Options can be risky
and are not suitable for all investors. Options transactions are often complex,
and investors can rapidly lose the entire amount of their investment or more in
a short period of time. Investors should consider their investment objectives
and risks carefully before investing in options. Refer to the Characteristics
and Risks of Standardized Options before considering any options transaction.
Supporting documentation for any claims, if applicable, will be furnished upon
request. Tax considerations with options transactions are unique and investors
considering options should consult their tax advisor as to how taxes affect the
outcome of each options strategy.

Options Order Flow Rebates.
If you are enrolled in our Options Order Flow Rebate Program, Public Investing
will share a percentage of our estimated order flow revenue for each completed
options trade as a rebate to help reduce your trading costs. Rebate rates vary
monthly from $0.06-$0.18 and depend on your current and prior month’s options
trading volume. This rebate will be deducted from your cost to place the trade
and will be reflected on your trade confirmation. To learn more, see our Options
Rebate Program Terms & Conditions, Order Rebate FAQ and Fee Schedule.

Bonds.
“Bonds” shall refer to corporate debt securities and U.S. government securities
offered on the Public platform through a self-directed brokerage account held at
Public Investing and custodied at Apex Clearing. For purposes of this section,
Bonds exclude treasury securities held in treasury accounts with Jiko
Securities, Inc. as explained under the “ Treasury Accounts” section.

Investments in Bonds are subject to various risks including risks related to
interest rates, credit quality, market valuations, liquidity, prepayments, early
redemption, corporate events, tax ramifications and other factors. The value of
Bonds fluctuate and any investments sold prior to maturity may result in gain or
loss of principal. In general, when interest rates go up, Bond prices typically
drop, and vice versa. Bonds with higher yields or offered by issuers with lower
credit ratings generally carry a higher degree of risk. All fixed income
securities are subject to price change and availability, and yield is subject to
change. Bond ratings, if provided, are third party opinions on the overall
bond's credit worthiness at the time the rating is assigned. Ratings are not
recommendations to purchase, hold, or sell securities, and they do not address
the market value of securities or their suitability for investment purposes.

A Bond Account is a self-directed brokerage account with Public Investing.
Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and
high-yield bonds. The Bond Account’s yield is the average, annualized yield to
worst (YTW) across all ten bonds in the Bond Account, before fees. A bond’s
yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore a bond’s
YTW is not “locked in” until the bond is purchased, and your yield at time of
purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTW is not
guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTW of the bonds in the Bond Account
if you sell any of the bonds before maturity or if the issuer defaults on the
bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See our Fee
Schedule.

Bond Accounts are not recommendations of individual bonds or default
allocations. The bonds in the Bond Account have not been selected based on your
needs or risk profile. You should evaluate each bond before investing in a Bond
Account. The bonds in your Bond Account will not be rebalanced and allocations
will not be updated, except for Corporate Actions.

Fractional Bonds also carry additional risks including that they are only
available on Public and cannot be transferred to other brokerages. Read more
about the risks associated with fixed income and fractional bonds. See Bond
Account Disclosures to learn more.

High-Yield Cash Account.
A High-Yield Cash Account is a secondary brokerage account with Public
Investing. Funds in your High-Yield Cash Account are automatically deposited
into partner banks (“Partner Banks”), where that cash earns interest and is
eligible for FDIC insurance. See here for a list of current Partner Banks. Your
Annual Percentage Yield is variable and may change at the discretion of the
Partner Banks or Public Investing. Apex Clearing and Public Investing receive
administrative fees for operating this program, which reduce the amount of
interest paid on swept cash. Neither Public Investing nor any of its affiliates
is a bank. Learn more.

Cryptocurrency.
Cryptocurrency trading, execution, and custody services are provided by Bakkt
Crypto Solutions, LLC (NMLS ID 1828849) (“Bakkt”). Cryptocurrency is highly
speculative, involves a high degree of risk, and has the potential for loss of
the entire amount of an investment. Cryptocurrencies offered by Bakkt are not
securities and are not FDIC insured or protected by SIPC. Your cryptocurrency
assets are held in your Bakkt account. Bakkt is a licensed virtual currency
business by the New York State Department of Financial Services and a licensed
money transmitter, but is not a registered broker-dealer or a FINRA member. Your
Bakkt Crypto account is separate from your brokerage account with Public
Investing, which holds US-listed stocks and ETFs. Please review the Risk
Disclosures before trading.

Treasury Accounts.
Investing services in treasury accounts offering 6 month US Treasury Bills on
the Public platform are through Jiko Securities, Inc. (“JSI”), a registered
broker-dealer and member of FINRA & SIPC. See JSI’s FINRA BrokerCheck and Form
CRS for further information.
JSI uses funds from your Treasury Account to purchase T-bills in increments of
$100 “par value” (the T-bill’s value at maturity). T-bills are purchased at a
discount to the par value and the T-bill’s yield represents the difference in
price between the “par value” and the “discount price.” Aggregate funds in your
Treasury Account in excess of the T-bill purchases will remain in your Treasury
Account as cash. The value of T-bills fluctuate and investors may receive more
or less than their original investments if sold prior to maturity. T-bills are
subject to price change and availability - yield is subject to change. Past
performance is not indicative of future performance. Investments in T-bills
involve a variety of risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk, and
liquidity risk. As a general rule, the price of a T-bills moves inversely to
changes in interest rates. Although T-bills are considered safer than many other
financial instruments, you could lose all or a part of your investment. See Jiko
U.S. Treasuries Risk Disclosures for further details.

Investments in T-bills: Not FDIC Insured; No Bank Guarantee; May Lose Value.

Banking services and bank accounts are offered by Jiko Bank, a division of
Mid-Central National Bank.
JSI and Jiko Bank are not affiliated with Public Holdings, Inc. (“Public”) or
any of its subsidiaries. None of these entities provide legal, tax, or
accounting advice. You should consult your legal, tax, or financial advisors
before making any financial decisions. This material is not intended as a
recommendation, offer, or solicitation to purchase or sell securities, open a
brokerage account, or engage in any investment strategy.

Commission-free trading refers to $0 commissions charged on trades of US listed
registered securities placed during the US Markets Regular Trading Hours in
self-directed brokerage accounts offered by Public Investing. Keep in mind that
other fees such as regulatory fees, Premium subscription fees, commissions on
trades during extended trading hours, wire transfer fees, and paper statement
fees may apply to your brokerage account. Please see Public’s Investing’s Fee
Schedule to learn more.

Fractional shares are illiquid outside of Public and not transferable. For a
complete explanation of conditions, restrictions and limitations associated with
fractional shares, see our Fractional Share Disclosure to learn more.

Investment Plans. Investment Plans (“Plans”) shown in our marketplace are for
informational purposes only and are meant as helpful starting points as you
discover, research and create a Plan that meets your specific investing needs.
Plans are self-directed purchases of individually-selected assets, which may
include stocks, ETFs and cryptocurrency. Plans are not recommendations of a Plan
overall or its individual holdings or default allocations. Plans are created
using defined, objective criteria based on generally accepted investment theory;
they are not based on your needs or risk profile. You are responsible for
establishing and maintaining allocations among assets within your Plan. Plans
involve continuous investments, regardless of market conditions. Diversification
does not eliminate risk. See our Investment Plans Terms and Conditions and
Sponsored Content and Conflicts of Interest Disclosure.
