How to complete this form Backup Withholding The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires us to withhold taxes for the applicable rate of backup withholding for U.S. persons without a W-9 tax certification who are not otherwise exempt. Parties acting as disbursement agents, such as Computershare, must withhold and pay to the IRS the applicable tax rate of such payments under certain conditions. This is called “backup withholding.” Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, and royalties. Supplying us with your correct Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), and signing this form will generally allow you to receive your payments without being subject to backup withholding. Failure to supply your TIN, or supplying us with an incorrect TIN, could result in a $50.00 penalty being assessed by the IRS. Receipt of a completed Form W-9 will discontinue backup withholding unless otherwise required. What Name and Number To Give the Requester For this type of account: 1. Individual 2.
