Identification of Beneficial Owners Determining Beneficial Ownership Two-Prong Test: Ownership Prong: Each individual, if any, who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, owns 25 percent or more of the equity interests of a legal entity customer Control Prong: An individual with significant responsibility to control, manage, or direct a legal entity customer, including: Executive Officer or Senior Manager (e.g., CEO, CFO, COO, President, VP, Managing Member, General Partner, Treasurer), OR Any other individual who regularly performs similar functions

Equity Interests Equity Interests Broadly Defined: Applies to any legal entity structure (except Trusts), for those individuals that have a primary value interest in that legal entity Examples: Shares of Stock in a Corporation Membership interests in an LLC Partnership interests in a Partnership Any other similar ownership interests in any other type of legal entity

In/Direct Connections Applies to Ownership Prong: Where a Legal Entity customer is owned by (or controlled through) one or more other legal entities, customers are required to “look through” those other legal entities to determine which natural persons (individuals) own 25 percent or more of the equity interests of the legal entity customer

Entities Not/Included Corporations LLCs Partnerships (e.g., GP, LP, LLP, Joint Venture) Unincorporated non-profits & associations* NOT INCLUDED: Trusts: Not included unless State Filing required, such as for statutory business trusts (Massachusetts, Alaska, Delaware) Note: California doesn’t require business trusts to file, think through impacts More Business Trusts Information: http://smallbusiness.chron.com/examples-business-trusts-21282.html *Some non-profits may be Exempt – see slide 9 for more information

Beneficial Owner Exemptions & Exclusions CIP Exemptions: Financial institutions regulated by a federal regulator (e.g., federally regulated banks, brokers or dealers in securities, mutual funds, futures commission merchants and introducing brokers in commodities) Publicly held companies traded on U.S. Stock exchanges Domestic government agencies and instrumentalities Certain legal entities exercising governmental authority Exclusions: Existing customers, thus only applies to new customers opening accounts going forward from the final rule’s effective date* *Slide 15 becomes crucial here

Beneficial Owner Additional Proposed Exemptions Issuer of Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (SEA) section 12 registered securities; or required report filer under section 15(d) Majority-owned Domestic subsidiary of any U.S. Stock Exchange listed entity SEC registered Investment Company defined under Section 3 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (ICA) SEC registered Investment Adviser per the ICA, Section 202(a)(11) definition SEA Section 6 or 17a registered exchange or clearing agency Any other SEC registered entity CFTC registered entity, commodity pool operator or trading advisor, retail foreign exchange dealer, swap dealer or major swap participant, per Section 1a of the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOA) Section 102 registered public accounting firm IRS Code Section 501(c), 527 or 4947(a)(1) charity or non-profit entity that has not been denied tax exempt status and is required to and has filed their most recent annual information return (Form 990)

Intermediated Accounts & Pooled Investment Vehicles Non-Exempt Pooled Investment Vehicles Your customer is the Intermediary and NOT their underlying clients Beneficial ownership information applies then only to the Intermediary UNLESS they are an exempt entity, eliminating the requirement NOTE: More information is available for different Intermediary scenarios in the proposed rule Applies to: Investment Companies as defined under Section 3(a) of the ICA (or as excluded under Section 3(c)1 or 3(c)7) Any Commodity Pool as defined under Section 1a(10) of the CEA Likely to require: Identification of the Control Prong individual(s) only (but the final rule will outline whether the Ownership Prong will apply – see slide 4 for more information)

Organigram Example LLC Entity Customer Owners List: Owner 1: 50% Grantor A: 37.5% Grantor B: 12.5% LP Owner 100% Owner 1 50% Revocable Trust Owner 50% Grantor A 75% Grantor B 25% Rabobank, N.A.

Verification of Beneficial Owners TGII !!!!! Thank Goodness It’s Identity! Identification Verification (IDV): Documentary Non-documentary CERTIFICATION

BENEFICIAL OWNER INFORMATION CERTIFICATION OF BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP: Name of person opening account Legal Entity Name of Customer Obtain from each individual who directly or indirectly owns ≥25% equity interests of the legal entity; AND obtain same from one individual with significant responsibility to manage the legal entity, with Opener’s signature certification regarding accuracy of the information: (Legal) Name Date of Birth (Physical Residential) Address Social Security No. (as applies), OR Foreign Passport No. and Name of Issuing Country (as applies)

Updating Beneficial Ownership Information What It Ain’t: NOT every time a new account is opened What It Is: Risk-Based for CDD and Beneficial Ownership: Higher Risk Business Types When aware of: Changes in business operations, management or ownership Possible Shell Company misuse in account history Changes in Address or Account Signatories

Reliance On Other FI’s Shared customers reliance is allowed, if: The other FI is regulated by a Federal functional regulator; and The other FI is subject to an AML Program requirement; and The reliance is reasonable under the circumstances; and A mutual contract requires the other FI to provide annual certifications relative to an implemented AML Program and will perform the specified requirements under the rules

Nature & Purpose of Customer Relationships Identifying Transactions: COMPARISON: Anticipated Activity Historical Activity Actual Current Activity Individual or Business Occupation or Business Type Geographic Impacts Products and Services used or offered Peer Analysis Etcetera Understanding the Relationship: MAYBE Enough is Enough: Type of Customer Type of Account Type of Product or Service When Enough is not Enough: Annual Income Net Worth Domicile (Geography) Principal Occupation or Business Etcetera Identifying Suspicious Activity: “…if you don’t know me by now… ….you will never, never, never know me… ……oooooooooo…….”

Ongoing Monitoring …means I have to constantly “refresh” CDD and UBO information ...now…and…forever??? Nope (well…sort of…) “in the course of monitoring, if you become AWARE of information relevant to assessing the RISK posed by a customer, it is expected you update the customer’s relevant information accordingly…”
