PRIME & STANDARD BROKERAGE ACCOUNT AGREEMENTTerms and Conditions

This agreement (“Agreement”) governs your Piper Jaffray & Co. (“Piper Jaffray”) Standard InvestmentAccount or your Prime Account (the “Account”). Forindividual accounts and accounts owned or directed by morethan one person, “you” are sometimes referred to as the“Client.” Piper Jaffray and its affiliates are sometimes referredto as “we,” “us” or the “Company. ” This Agreement issubject to the prospectuses for the money market investmentfunds offered by the Company as a component of the Account(the “Funds”). (The prospectuses, including any amendmentsor supplements, are referred to as the “Prospectuses”).

1. Description of Standard Investment Account.The Standard Investment Account is an integrated financialservices program that links together several components:• A Piper Jaffray securities account (the “Securities

Account”);• An automatic margin lending feature (for eligible

accounts only); and• The Funds offered by the Company.

machine (“ATM”) privileges; and• Online bill pay services

These services are provided by PNC Bank, Delaware (“PNCBank”). If you elect any of these features for your PrimeAccount, you will need to complete a Banking ServicesApplication & Agreement.

The principal attributes of each Account component and theirrelation to one another are described below and in the BankingService Application & Agreement, if applicable.

3. Securities Account.The Account is linked to a margin account that you can use tobuy and sell securities using credit issued to you by the Company.Any references to margin, credit, or short sales are onlyapplicable to eligible accounts for which you have not declinedthis feature on the account application or otherwise.

The amount available for a margin loan varies depending on theamount of eligible securities in your Account and regulatoryrequirements. The availability of margin is subject to you having$2,000 minimum equity in the account.

A. Placing Orders: Client Responsibilities. When youbuy securities, the Company will first apply any cash inyour Account on the settlement date to pay for thepurchase. If there is insufficient cash, the Company willthen redeem Fund shares at net asset value to pay theamount due.

If there are not enough Fund shares in the Account to paythe balance due, the trade will be treated as a credittransaction. The Company may extend credit to you onthe terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Anycredit the Company extends to you will be automaticallycollateralized by eligible securities in your Account. Ifthere are not sufficient eligible securities in the Account,you must deposit additional cash or eligible securities intoyour Account within the time frames required byregulations and the Company’s policies. If cash or eligiblesecurities are not deposited on time, the Company mayliquidate the securities at market risk and exposure to you.

B. Sales of Securities. When you place an order to sellsecurities that you own, you will let the Company knowthat you currently own them and you understand that theCompany will mark the order as being “long.” If theCompany does not hold the securities in your Account,you agree to deliver the securities to the Company bysettlement date or before the expiration of any extensionthe Company grants to you.

When you place any order to sell securities that you donot then own, you will let the Company know that, andyou understand the Company will mark the order a“short” sale. If the Company makes a short sale for you,you authorize the Company to borrow the securitiesnecessary to make delivery to the purchaser, and youagree to be responsible for any costs the Company mayincur as a result. You designate the Company and theCompany’s correspondents as your agents to complete allsuch transactions and take any other necessary actions.

C. Insufficient Assets in Account. The Company mayapply any cash and sell any securities in the Account (andin any other account the Company carries for yourbenefit) to cover any shortfall in the Account with respectto amounts owed by you to the Company or another thirdparty in connection with the Account.

After deducting all costs and expenses of any suchpurchase or sale and delivery, the Company is authorizedto apply any remaining proceeds to the payment of yourliabilities to the Company. The Company will credit youraccount or return the surplus, if any, to you. You shallremain liable for any deficiency. If the Company sells anysecurities at public auction or on any exchange, board ormarket, the Company may become the purchaser for itselfor on behalf of anyone else.

D. Placing Orders: Piper Jaffray Responsibilities. Atany time, the Company is authorized (but not required)to:• Cancel any outstanding orders you have given the

Company;• Purchase, sell, assign, receive or deliver all or any part

of the securities held or carried for you; and

Page 6: ACCOUNT FOR ENTITIESACCOUNT FOR ENTITIES Account Application and Agreement Kit This kit contains everything you need to open a Piper Jaffray Prime AccounSM ort Standard Account for

Form E1948 (9/05) 2

• Close out any short sales by purchase on anyexchange, board or market or in any public or privatesale at the Company’s option.

Any order you give the Company is binding on you andyour personal representative until the Company has actualnotice of your death. Your death and notice thereof shallnot in any way affect the Company’s right to take anyaction under this Agreement that the Company could havetaken if you had not died (either before or after receivingnotice of your death). The Company may take such actions,require such papers and inheritance or state tax waivers, orretain such portion of or restrict transactions in yourAccount as the Company deems advisable to protect itselfagainst any tax, liability, penalty or loss under any presentor future laws or otherwise.

E. “When Issued” Securities. On transactions insecurities when, as and if issued, the Company is entitledto protection against its contingent liability pending theissue of the securities to the same extent as in purchasesand sales of securities already issued.

F. Waiver of Notice. The Company may take any actionprovided in this Agreement without demand of or noticeto you. No specific demand or notice shall invalidate thisgeneral and express waiver.

G. Power of Attorney. You may give another person“power of attorney,” authorizing that person to performtransactions for your Account. If you are naming anattorney-in-fact, we may request that all owners of theAccount complete a trading authorization form. You agreeto provide us with any documentation we may require inconnection with the power of attorney. Until we receivewritten notice that you have died or that the authority of theattorney-in-fact under a “power of attorney” has beencanceled and we have had time to act on the notice, we maycontinue to accept without question that person’s authorityto deal with the Account as permitted in the “power ofattorney” form. You agree to hold harmless and indemnifythe Company from any liability resulting from any actiontaken by any person to whom you have given power ofattorney.

H. Piper Jaffray Order Handling. Consistent with ourobligation to provide best execution of your order, anddepending on the particular security, we may internalizeyour order. This means that we may execute your orderas principal and/or cross your order with other client(either institutional or retail) or dealer orders in the samesecurity on the opposite side of the market. Regardless ofwhether we internalize your order, your tradeconfirmation will reflect the capacity (principal or agent)in which we acted. Internalization of client order flowmay provide us with certain benefits (such as additionalrevenue opportunities and/or cost savings) that we wouldnot otherwise realize if we were to simply route yourorder to an exchange, another dealer, or another marketcenter or market participant and execute your order asagent. Piper Jaffray stands to share in 100% of whateverprofits we generate by trading as principal with ourcustomer orders.

Unless you specifically instruct us to the contrary, anyorder to buy or sell any security that you place with usmay be aggregated with other orders in the particularsecurity on the same side of the market and executed as asingle bunched or block order at an average price. Theaverage price that you receive may be better than, equalto, or worse than the price that you would have receivedhad your order not been aggregated.

4. Credit Extensions.PLEASE NOTE: The provisions of this Agreementconcerning credit only apply when and if you arecarrying a settlement date debit balance in your Account(that is, if the Company is lending you money againstsecurities in your account).

If the Company extends you a margin loan in your SecuritiesAccount, the Company will begin to charge interest on the dayit extends you credit.

A. Client Obligation. You will pay interest on allamounts advanced by, and other balances you owe to, theCompany, including all commissions and other chargesimposed by the Company. You specifically give theCompany your consent to check your credit references atany time, and you authorize anyone to provide theCompany that information. The Company may at anytime demand immediate re-payment by you of any and allamounts the Company has advanced you and otherbalances you owe the Company, with interest andcommissions. Unless demand is made sooner, interest isdue and payable monthly or upon the balances due beingpaid in full. You will at all times maintain sufficientcollateral as required by the Company.

B. Credit Terms. You will be charged interest on anycredit the Company extends to you for the purpose ofpurchasing, carrying, trading or selling securities. Suchextensions of credit include, but are not limited to:

• Prepayment of proceeds of sale prior to settlement;• Late payment on any purchase;• Payments on “no good delivery” securities prior to

clearance; and• Specific transactions where interest expenses are incurred.

You understand that the standard annual rate of interestcharged by the Company on client debit balances iscalculated by adding a 2.25% to the available Prime Rateas determined by the Company. You also understand thatthe Company, in its sole discretion, may charge lowerrates, depending upon factors such as the size of your netbalance.

The Company may change the rate of interest charged onyour debit balance without prior notice to you inaccordance with changes in the Prime rate, your netbalance due, or other factors we have negotiated. If yourinterest rate is increased for any other reason, theCompany will give you prior notice of the change.

The method of computing interest is as follows: Interest is accrued daily and charged monthly based on allfunds you owe Piper Jaffray (debit balances). Free creditbalances in your account are used to offset the debit

Page 7: ACCOUNT FOR ENTITIESACCOUNT FOR ENTITIES Account Application and Agreement Kit This kit contains everything you need to open a Piper Jaffray Prime AccounSM ort Standard Account for

Form E1948 (9/05) 3

balance each day. The interest period for Piper Jaffrayruns from the last business day of the previous month tothe second to the last business day of the current month.Therefore, it will be necessary to use the prior month’sstatement as well as the current month’s statement tocalculate your interest charge.

To begin, you will need to use the previous month’sstatement to determine your beginning debit balance for themost recent interest cycle. Starting with the last businessday of the previous month and each day through the end ofthe interest cycle, you need to add any debits and subtractany credits to the beginning debit balance. This willdetermine each day’s debit balance. The actual debitbalance is determined by adding the debit balances for eachday. Multiply this by the annual rate of interest and divideby 360. This total is the amount of interest accrued to youraccount on a daily basis.

Monthly statements will contain the followinginformation: annual rate of interest charged to youraccount, the average debit balance, and ending debitbalance of interest period.

The credit that appears on your statement due to shortsales (including short sales against the box) is offset by adebit of like amount because the Company has to borrowthe same security to deliver it to the buying broker. Thismeans that the credit generated by any short sale does notreduce your debit balance for the purpose of computinginterest until the short position is covered.

If the security that you sold short (or sold short against thebox) appreciates in market price over the selling price,interest will be charged on the appreciation of the value. Ifthe security that you sold short depreciates in market price,interest is correspondingly reduced by the drop in value.Periodically, and depending upon prevailing conditions,this practice of “marking-to-the-market” is performed.

C. Liens, Pledging and Lending of Securities inAccount. Margin lending is provided for all eligibleaccounts. If you have a margin loan balance in yourAccount, you understand that the Company has the right torequire additional funds or collateral when it deemsdesirable. The Company might make such a request, forexample, if there is a decline in the market value of thesecurities that are the collateral for your debit balance.Ordinarily, the Company will make such a request whenthe “equity” in the Account falls below 30% of themarginable market value of the securities in the Account(the “equity” is the excess marginable market value of thesecurities in the account plus the value of cash and cashequivalents over the debit balance). The Company reservesthe right, however, to change that level from time to timefor any securities in your Account or for all of the accountsthe Company carries. If you use the margin lending featureof your Account, any securities in any of your accounts arecollateral and can be sold by the Company to reduce or toliquidate entirely any debit balances in your Account.

All securities held or purchased by the Company for youare subject to a lien for the payment of all your liabilitiesto the Company. You authorize the Company withoutnotice to you, whenever the Company deems it advisable,

to transfer between any accounts you have with theCompany any or all of the securities so held. You alsoauthorize the Company to pledge, repledge, hypothecate,rehypothecate or lend any securities the Company holdsas collateral, either to itself or to others (these arereferred to as “Collateral Transactions”). CollateralTransactions may be for the amount you owe theCompany, or for a greater or lesser sum. If you have anoutstanding debit in your Account and the Company lendsany of your securities that the Company holds ascollateral, you could receive payments in lieu ofdividends that may be taxed at a higher rate thandividends. You may also lose voting rights for yoursecurities if the Company has loaned your securities overthe record date. The Company may commingle securitiesit holds for you with securities carried for other clients inentering into Collateral Transactions. The Company mayenter into Collateral Transactions without notice to youand regardless of whether the Company has in itspossession or control other securities of the same kind andamount. The Company is not required to deliver to youthe identical securities deposited or received, but onlysecurities of the same kind and amount.

5. Cash Investment Options.You authorize the Company to invest daily any cash in yourAccount automatically in shares of whichever Fund you havedesignated or in the absence of a designation, the Companywill select a default fund for you, both of which will bereferred to as the “Designated Fund.” Prime Accounts andmanaged Standard Investment Accounts will sweep daily, allother Standard Investment Accounts will sweep everyFriday. Although cash will be invested automatically only inthe Designated Fund, you may purchase shares of otherFunds at any time. You may change your Designated Fundby written or oral request to the Company.

All Fund shares will be redeemed at their net asset value andyou authorize automatic redemptions, as necessary, to satisfydebit balances resulting from securities transactions or from useof the cash access check-writing, check card, ATM or bill payprivileges, as described below. You may also redeem Fundshares directly by written or oral request to the Company.

These funds have various cut-off times for redemptions, and ifyou request a withdrawal of funds after that cut-off time, yourrequest will be processed on the next business day. Thecompany may in its discretion process your request to withdrawfunds on the same day, and you will be charged interest asspecified in section 4B.

Orders to purchase or redeem Fund shares will becomeeffective as provided in the Prospectuses. Ordinarily, apurchase order will not be entered until cash becomesavailable to the Company. Availability of check deposits is aminimum of two business days. The Company may,however, advance Federal Funds to the Account on yourbehalf to enable you to purchase Fund shares and earn Funddividends prior to final collection of checks or otherinstruments deposited in your Account. While such advanceshave been made, however, you agree that the Company mayreasonably withhold access by you to the redemptionproceeds of Fund shares until full and final payment fromyou.
