<br />any similar indication) written or printed on the line for a FATCA

<br />code should be completed.
<br />Line 5
<br />Enter your address (number, street, and apartment or suite number).
<br />This is where the requester of this Form W-9 will mail your information
<br />returns. If this address differs from the one the requester already has on
<br />file, write NEW at the top. If a new address is provided, there is still a
<br />chance the old address will be used until the payor changes your
<br />address in their records.
<br />Line 6
<br />Enter your city, state, and ZIP code.
<br />Part I. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)
<br />Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien and
<br />you do not have and are not eligible to get an SSN, your TIN is your IRS
<br />individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Enter it in the social
<br />security number box. If you do not have an ITIN, see How to get a TIN
<br />below.
<br />If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either
<br />your SSN or EIN.
<br />If you are a single -member LLC that is disregarded as an entity
<br />separate from its owner, enter the owner's SSN (or EIN, if the owner has
<br />one). Do not enter the disregarded entity's EIN. If the LLC is classified as
<br />a corporation or partnership, enter the entity's EIN.
<br />Note: See What Name and Number To Give the Requester, later, for
<br />further clarification of name and TIN combinations.
<br />How to get a TIN. If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately.
<br />To apply for an SSN, get Form SS -5, Application for a Social Security
<br />Card, from your local SSA office or get this form online at
<br />www.SSA.gov. You may also get this form by calling 1-800-772-1213.
<br />Use Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification
<br />Number, to apply for an ITIN, or Form SS -4, Application for Employer
<br />Identification Number, to apply for an EIN. You can apply for an EIN
<br />online by accessing the IRS website at www.irs.gov/Businesses and
<br />clicking on Employer Identification Number (EIN) under Starting a
<br />Business. Go to www.irs.gov/Forms to view, download, or print Form
<br />W-7 and/or Form SS -4. Or, you can go to www.irs.gov/OrderForms to
<br />place an order and have Form W-7 and/or SS -4 mailed to you within 10
<br />business days.
<br />If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN, apply
<br />for a TIN and write "Applied For" in the space for the TIN, sign and date
<br />the form, and give it to the requester. For interest and dividend
<br />payments, and certain payments made with respect to readily tradable
<br />instruments, generally you will have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to
<br />the requester before you are subject to backup withholding on
<br />payments. The 60 -day rule does not apply to other types of payments.
<br />You will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments until
<br />you provide your TIN to the requester.
<br />Note: Entering "Applied For" means that you have already applied for a
<br />TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon.
<br />Caution: A disregarded U.S. entity that has a foreign owner must use
<br />the appropriate Form W-8.
<br />Part II. Certification
<br />To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or
<br />resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the
<br />withholding agent even if item 1, 4, or 5 below indicates otherwise.
<br />For a joint account, only the person whose TIN is shown in Part I
<br />should sign (when required). In the case of a disregarded entity, the
<br />person identified on line 1 must sign. Exempt payees, see Exempt payee
<br />code, earlier.
<br />Signature requirements. Complete the certification as indicated in
<br />items 1 through 5 below.
