SIPC Disclosure

Securities and cash held by individuals in Morgan & Co. LLC and Morgan Smith Barney LLC accounts are protected up to their full net equity value by a combination of coverage provided by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), a non-profit organization created by an Act of Congress and additional protection purchased from a group captive insurance company by Morgan ("excess coverage"). SIPC protects up to $500,000 of your securities, of which up to $250,000 may be uninvested cash. Excess Coverage provides additional protection up to the full net equity value of each account including unlimited coverage for uninvested cash. SIPC and excess coverage apply only to securities and cash in the exclusive possession and control of Morgan and do not protect against losses due to fluctuations in the market.
