IRA Beneficiary Claim Form - Individual Beneficiary 800-240-4313 Use this form to establish an account when the original IRA owner is deceased and you have been designated as the beneficiary. Each beneficiary must complete a separate claim form. There are many options to consider when inheriting an IRA. Janus Henderson encourages you to consult with a tax advisor and/or financial planner before making any choices. The inherited assets will be transferred to the same fund as the original account. If you would like to exchange to a different fund at a later date, please contact a Janus Henderson representative or visit www.janushenderson.com. In the event of an IRA participant s death, the executor of the decedent s estate or the IRA beneficiary(ies) may request a date-ofdeath valuation of the decedent s IRA account pursuant to IRS Revenue Procedure 89-52. Print in capital letters using black ink. Questions? Call 800-240-4313. You must be a US Citizen or US Resident Alien residing in the United States or a US Territory to open a Janus Henderson account. Shares inherited by an IRA beneficiary who does not meet this requirement must be immediately liquidated (mandatory tax withholding rules may apply). An inheritance tax waiver may be required if the decedent was a resident of Alabama (not required if death occurred after 12/31/04), Indiana (not required if transferred to the surviving spouse or if the account owner died after 12/31/12), Ohio (not required if transferred to the surviving spouse, value less than $25,000 as of date of death, or decedent died after 12/31/12), Oklahoma (not required if transferred to spouse, or if death occurred after 12/31/09), Pennsylvania (not required if transferred to spouse), Puerto Rico (required) or Tennessee (not required if the decedent died after 12/31/2015). Please contact the appropriate state s department of revenue for further information. For minor beneficiaries: If a custodian for a minor beneficiary was not previously designated by the account owner, the personal representative of the decedent s estate must designate one. Additional documentation may be required. Please call for more information if a minor is inheriting the account. Important Note: To help the government deter money laundering and terrorism funding activities, all financial institutions are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account. Please read important disclosures in Section 7. Please include an original certified copy of the decedent s death certificate. Please return the certified death certificate and/or court documents to me at (please print): Required Minimum Distribution (RMD): If the IRA owner died after reaching age 70½, but before April 1 of the year following their 70½ year, no RMD is required until the next year. However, if the IRA owner died after April 1 following the year they reached 70½, any undistributed RMD amount must be distributed in the year of death by December 31. This amount is based on the original owner s RMD calculation and reported under the beneficiary s Tax ID. If an RMD is required, please complete Section 4. An RMD is not required for the original owner of a Roth IRA. However, the beneficiary may be required to take RMDs following the year of death of the original owner. Distribution Election: Assets inherited from an IRA have many unique options and requirements. Prior to making your distribution election(s), Janus Henderson encourages you to consult with a tax advisor and/or financial planner for assistance in making such an important decision. Once you have determined how you wish to distribute these assets, please complete the appropriate Janus Henderson Distribution Form (enclosed) and return it with your Beneficiary Claim Form.

This option is only available to the spouse beneficiary of the deceased shareholder. Assets will be moved into the same fund using the same allocations as that of the decedent unless otherwise indicated. To use your existing account the type of IRA must match the type of account you are inheriting. Use my existing IRA account number: Establish a new IRA in my name Transfer assets to a new Janus Henderson Inherited IRA account. Note: If no box is checked, Janus Henderson will establish an Inherited IRA account and Inherited IRA rules will apply. 4. Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) If the IRA owner died after reaching age 70½, but before April 1 of the year following their 70½ year, no RMD is required until the next year. However, if the IRA owner died after April 1 following the year they reached 70½, any undistributed RMD amount must be distributed in the year of death by December 31. This amount is based on the original owner s RMD calculation and reported under the beneficiary s Tax ID. An RMD is not required for the original owner of a Roth IRA. (Check all that apply) Please calculate and distribute the decedent s RMD for the year of death (Does not apply to Roth IRAs). I have included a completed Janus Henderson IRA Distribution Form for an amount other than the decedent s RMD. I have included a completed Janus Henderson IRA Systematic Distribution Form to automatically redeem the beneficiary s RMD going forward. I plan to take the decedent s RMD at a later time prior to IRS deadlines (Does not apply to Roth IRAs). I plan to take beneficiary distributions at a later time prior to IRS deadlines. The decedent s RMD has been satisfied for the year of death or is not required (Does not apply to Roth IRAs). Notes: The RMD will be distributed proportionately from all inherited funds and sent to your address of record. If there is more than one beneficiary, each beneficiary should distribute their portion of the deceased owner s RMD before 12/31 in the year of death (If applicable). For other distribution amounts and/or options, please complete the Janus Henderson IRA Distribution Form or the Janus Henderson IRA Systematic Distribution Form (Enclosed). Any missed distributions (excess accumulations) may be subject to a 50% IRS excise penalty. Due to the complexity of any missed RMDs for either the decedent or beneficiary, you may need to include a letter of instruction. Should you have any questions, please consult a tax advisor and/or financial planner or see IRS Publication 590B. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE PAGE 3 of 6

5. Would you like federal income tax withheld on the RMD? (check one) If this section is not completed, IRS regulations require federal income tax to be withheld at a rate of 10% from your distributions. Form W-4P/OMB NO. 1545-0415 Important Notice: Any distributions from your IRA are subject to federal income tax withholding unless you elect not to have withholding apply. Since the entire distribution may be included in your income that is subject to federal income tax, the withholding will apply to the entire distribution. Qualified distributions from a Roth IRA are nontaxable and therefore not subject to withholding. I do not want any federal income tax withheld on my distributions. I understand that I will be responsible for paying the income tax (if any) which may be due as a result of these distributions. Please withhold federal income tax on my distributions at a rate of % (10% is the minimum withholding rate). I understand that Janus Henderson will remit any income tax which has been withheld to the Internal Revenue Service on my behalf. If required by my state, mandatory withholding at the state level will be taken at my state s required minimum rate if federal withholding is taken. Notes: If no box is selected, federal income tax will be taken at a default rate of 10% for Traditional, SEP & SARSEP IRAs; Roth IRAs will default to no withholding. Any amounts withheld cannot be reimbursed by Janus Henderson. If you elect not to have withholding apply to your distributions, or if you do not have enough federal income tax withheld from your distributions, you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are not sufficient. Even if you elect not to have federal income tax withheld, you are liable for payment of federal income tax on the taxable portions of your distributions. Whether or not you elect to have withholding apply, you are responsible for any federal income taxes, state and local taxes, and any penalties that may apply to your distributions. These distributions will be reported to the IRS and the state of your residence, if applicable, as taxable income. The address on the account registration at the time of the distributions will determine the state of residence for state withholding purposes. For more information, or for assistance completing this form, please contact a Janus Henderson representative at 800-240-4313. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE PAGE 4 of 6

Authorize the Fund and its agents to act upon instructions (by phone, in writing, online or by other means) believed to be genuine and in accordance with procedures described in the prospectus for this account or any account into which exchanges are made. I agree that neither the Funds nor the transfer agent will be liable for any loss, cost or expense for acting on such instructions, provided the Fund employs reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated are genuine. I understand it is my responsibility to review account statements and inform Janus Henderson of errors posted to my account.

Certify that (if I am married and reside in a community property or marital property state) my spouse has knowledge of and consents to the designation of a non-spouse beneficiary for this account. (Please consult with a legal advisor regarding your beneficiary designation. Neither the custodian nor the plan sponsor will be liable for any consequences resulting from failure to accurately represent spousal consent.) Understand that Florida law voids, with certain limited exceptions, an ex-spouse s designation as beneficiary if designated prior to the time the decedent s marriage was judicially dissolved or declared invalid by court order. As a result of this law, I may be required to provide additional documentation before Janus Henderson is able to process my request. Consent to the householded delivery of any fund prospectuses, shareholder reports or other documents (except transaction confirmations and account statements) that I am required, by law, to receive. This means Janus Henderson will generally deliver a single copy of the most recent annual and semi-annual reports, prospectuses, and newsletters to investors who share an address, even if the accounts are registered under different names. My participation in this program will continue indefinitely unless I contact Janus Henderson. Agree that the information provided is accurate. Any required minimum distributions are my responsibility. Janus Henderson will not be held liable for any failure to distribute. Due to the important tax consequences associated with retirement plan distributions, I have been advised to consult with a tax advisor.

So that we may comply with these requirements, we ask you to please complete the registration section in its entirety when opening an account with Janus Henderson.
