YOUR GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
                                             BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN


Maintain our customary lifestyle. This should take about $641,000 annually after taxes and gifts.


Provide for the financial security of the surviving spouse.


Explore options for a business succession plan that maximizes the after-tax proceeds from the sale of the
business.

Create sufficient funds for retirement.


We wish to continue giving charitably during our lives and wish to create a significant charitable gift upon
death in order to leave a family legacy.

We would like to leave our children and grandchildren an inheritance in an amount that leaves them
comfortable, but not in a manner that they become non-productive members of society.

Reduce income taxes if possible.


Implement an asset protection structure that protects our assets and the assets our children & grandchildren
will inherit.

Eliminate or reduce estate taxes.


Assure we have sufficient liquid assets available at our deaths to avoid a forced liquidation of our business and
real estate assets.

YOUR GOALS AND OBJECTIVES - ACCOMPLISHED
                                            BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN




Cash Flow - The plan provides cash flow to maintain your lifestyle at $641,000 increasing annually at 3% after
taxes and gifts

Business Continuation - The plan lays a foundation for business succession, while leaving control with you.

Income tax deferral - Over the next 5 years income taxes could be reduced by as much as $2,600,000

Inheritance Planning - The proposed plan provides for an inheritance to your children and executive team of at
least 75% of your estate and manages your children's inheritance in a way that provides them with
opportunities, while limiting the dangers associated with receiving too much, too soon.

Charitable Giving - Your family foundation could expect future gifts of more than $35,000,000

Estate Tax Elimination - Under your current plan, assuming current law, your estate taxes would be in excess of
$392,696,058 at life expectancy. The plan eliminates those estate taxes entirely.

Liquidity - The continued investment of company profit back into the company creates a need for liquidity. The
plan helps this problem.

The plan is based on numerous assumptions. Important among these are the yield and growth assumptions

INTRODUCTION TO THE PLAN STRATEGIES ROADMAP
                                                  BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN



The following section of the plan contains a step by step roadmap for each of the strategies that we are recommending.

You will notice that the strategies are often interdependent; that is, in order for one strategy to be successful, you must
complete another strategy as well. It is the integration of each of these strategies that allows you to most efficiently
accomplish your goals.

Also keep in mind that there is often more than one way to get from point A to point B. This is true in wealth transfer
planning. If a particular strategy or combination of strategies is not acceptable to you, we may be able to reach the desired
result in a less efficient but perhaps more acceptable way.

The following pages are a conceptual road map only, there are numerous details contained in each strategy that are not
detailed in the overall plan that follows.




                                                                                                                                Page 8

                           Ben and Amanda create a limited partnership and a management LLC. They receive limited partnership
                           shares and LLC receives GP shares. The new entity is organized to develop new investments, protect family
                           members, streamline business succession planning, create a gifting mechanism and provide centralized
                           management of investments.

               Planning Goals Accomplished:
                 - Sets up a vehicle for business transition, with the potential to pass management of these assets to professional trustees and have
                 the children benefit from their operation.
                 - Controls assets so inheritance provides opportunities while minimizing problems for children and grandchildren.
                 - Reduces estate taxes.
                 - Provides a vehicle to enhance asset protection.
                 - Helps to avoid liquidation of real estate and business assets at your death.

account:
       ▪ Liquidity of the shares
       ▪ Transferability of the shares
       ▪ Degree of control that accompanies ownership of the shares
       ▪ The assets owned by the corporation

               heirs.

The GDOTs should be set-up as Dynasty Trusts. These trusts would hold the inheritances for children, grandchildren and future
generations in asset protected and tax advantaged trusts, while protecting heirs from frivolous spending. Heirs would receive annual
income from the trust. The example on this page assumes annual distributions of 3% of the total. This payout could be higher or
lower. In addition, payments of principal could be made for health, education, maintenance, support or other items you feel would
be appropriate to allow.

While your stated liquidity goal is at least $1,000,000 of cash/securities, your current business strategy of putting all of your excess cash flow back into
the business does not allow for a build up of liquid assets. We have illustrated your proposed and current liquid assets over time. You could increase
these by decreasing your reinvestments back into the company.

This chart assumes that you both die at life expectancy and compares the results of the current plan with the proposed plan.
Deferred Inheritance is a general approximation based on the long term performance of the TCLAT.

This chart compares the amount of your assets that will pass to heirs and execs after estate taxes and costs of implementation in the current plan as

inheritance from a TCLAT remainder.

All strategies have an element of risk; a chance that the program adopted does not work as planned. Estate planning strategies carry an element of
risk as well. Many advisors warn their clients of risk but do not make an effort to quantify those risks. We have taken the position in our planning
that if a risk is quantifiable, it should be identified as such and the cost of the risk should be disclosed to our client. When the risk is not
quantifiable, this should also be disclosed.
Any risk analysis begins with two questions:
 What is the reward to be gained by taking the risk?
 What is the cost of the potential loss if the plan fails totally?
 If you are satisfied that the reward is worth the risk and that the risk of loss is acceptable, it would then make sense to pursue the strategy. If
 the risk is such that you could not comfortably accept the loss, then the risk should not be taken.

Is the reward worth the risk?
The reward of the proposed plan results in an advantage to your heirs today of $17,436,998 over your existing plan.
The reward of the proposed plan results in an advantage to your heirs at life expectancy of $215,524,472 over your existing plan.

What if the Plan fails totally?
There are 4 basic areas of potential risk involved in this comprehensive plan. We assume total failure of all planning techniques in order to
provide a worst case analysis.

    Planning Fees                                                                    -

  Annual Maintenance Fee                                                   $         -

  Taxes
   This represents the taxes that will have to be paid if the plan fails entirely. Note that this is the same amount that would be paid without the
   planning.
    Total additional tax over current plan = $0



                                                                                                                                                       Page 43
COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS (Continued)

Interest (cost of money)
  Interest is charged on late tax payments by the IRS at the rate of the applicable federal rate plus 3%. You must invest at a rate less than this rate
  to lose money. Assuming that assets earn in excess of that rate, there should be no risk of loss due to cost of money.
  Nonetheless, we assume that assets actually earn 2% less than the IRS interest rates, and the risk of loss would be $262,551.
Penalties
 Assuming the plan is implemented with the help of knowledgeable advisors, the only potential penalty is for substantial undervaluation. The
 penalty comes into play in the case of a challenge to asset valuation. If the value reported for a transaction is less than 65% of the value as
 finally determined for tax purposes (by the IRS or the courts) then there is a 25% substantial undervaluation penalty.

  The valuation adjustment assumed in this plan is 35.00%. Therefore, an adjustment should not result in a substantial valuation
  penalty.

APPENDIX
                                                          BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN


Many of our clients like to read about some of the strategies that we have recommended. Both as further education and as a
reminder of the main points involved in the strategies.

The appendix material that follows includes information about the planning strategies recommended. Not all strategies are
included. Only those that likely require additional explanation.

Naturally, we are always happy to answer your questions or review the details of a particular strategy with you at any time.


     Charitable Remainder Unitrust (CRT) - This trust allows an individual or couple to make a gift, or a series of gifts, normally
     of appreciated assets, receive a charitable income tax deduction for the present value of the gift and to receive an income
     stream of a percentage that is based on the value of the trust assets. All types of CRTs have a minimum payout percentage of
     5%. The trust is based on the life expectancy of the grantor or a term of years no greater than twenty. When the last income
     beneficiary dies or at the end of the term, the remainder passes to the charitable beneficiary.

     TCLAT - A testamentary charitable lead annuity trust is established at the death of the grantor. It pays a fixed annuity
     percentage to charity for a period of time then the remaining assets are transferred to the grantor’s beneficiaries. Most
     TCLATs are structured to create a “zero” transfer tax and are often used to eliminate any estate tax that would be due from
     the grantor’s estate.

     Charitable Life Estate - Client makes a gift to a charity of his residence and retains all rights and obligations of property
     ownership for his life. Client receives an immediate charitable income tax deduction for the present value of the gift to
     charity. At death, the house passes to the designated charity and is removed from the estate of the donor.

     Private Foundations - A private foundation is a specific type of charity that is established and operated usually by one
     family. The entity can be a trust or a corporation and the family may have 100% control of the board, make all of the
     investment decisions and all charitable grants. Private foundations must distribute 5% of its assets annually. There are also
     strict guidelines as to what type of investments may be owned and there are special limitations as to the amount of
     charitable income tax deductions are available for contributions.




                                                                                                                                      Page 81
Family Charity Plan - Client establishes a family limited partnership that is designed to minimize the typical discounting that
is normally associated with partnership planning. Client funds the partnership and then donates the limited partnership
interests to designated charities. Client receives a significant income tax deduction and maintains investment control over
partnership assets. Often client has a right to borrow from the partnership. Also, client generally makes an annual
distribution to the charities from the partnership, normally 1% of assets.

Supporting Organizations (SOs) - SOs are similar to private foundations but are actually public charities that can be
established by private families. Because they are technically public charities, the higher charitable income tax deduction
rules for public charities apply. Unlike private foundations, however, SOs require that a private family may not have
absolute control of the board. That is, if the board is to have 5 members, the family can only have a maximum of 2 of those
members. SOs are not required to pay excise taxes, nor are they required to distribute 5% of their assets annually. Instead,
they must distribute 85% of their income.

Bargain Sales - A bargain sale occurs when a donor transfers property to a charity for less than the full fair market value of
the property or when the charity pays some portion of the value for property it receives. The donor only receives a tax
deduction for the contributed portion of the property.

Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust (CRAT) - This trust allows an individual or couple to make a single gift, normally of
appreciated assets, receive a charitable income tax deduction for the present value of the gift and to receive an income
stream of a fixed percentage of the original value of the contribution of trust assets. The trust is based on the life expectancy
of the grantor or a term of years no greater than twenty. When the last income beneficiary dies or at the end of the term, the
remainder passes to the charitable beneficiary.

Gift Annuity - A gift annuity is a form of a bargain sale. A donor transfers property to a charity in exchange for a fixed
income stream that will last for the life expectancy of the donor. A charitable income tax deduction for the present value of
the gifted property is allowed. The charity is liable and responsible for the payment of the annuity income stream.

Net Income with Makeup Unitrust (NIMCRUT) - This is a special type of charitable remainder unitrust (see above)
wherein the trust distributes the “net income” that the trust assets earn within the trust. If the trust does not earn enough
income to pay the stated income percentage payout, the trust creates an “IOU” account that it can pay at a later date when
the assets earn more income. These trusts are often used when a donor has other income currently but would like income
later such as during their retirement. Trust assets can be managed to produce income or not.




                                                                                                                                    Page 82
Flip Charitable Remainder Unitrust (Flip CRT) - This type of CRT operates like a NIMCRUT when it is originally
established, paying out only the income it earns at a set percentage. At some triggering event in the future, the FLIP CRT
changes character and operates like a standard CRT (SCRUT) whereby it pays out a fixed percentage of its annual valuation.
This type of CRT is often used when a gift that produces little current income (such as land) is transferred before it is sold.
Upon sale, the proceeds are reinvested and the CRT begins paying its regular percentage.

Charitable Lead Unitrust (CLUT) - This trust operates very much like the CLAT. However, while the percentage payout
remains fixed, the trust’s distribution amount varies depending on the value of the trusts assets which are computed
annually. Because of this, the CLUT cannot have a “zero” gift amount as there will always be some calculated remainder that
passes to the heirs. CLUTs are often used for gifts to grandchildren or other “skip generations” because the generation
skipping tax amount can be calculated when the trust is first established.

Charitable Lead Annuity Trust (CLAT) - This trust distributes income to charity over the life of the donor or for a period of
years. At the end of the trust term, the trust assets are either distributed back to the grantor or to heirs. These trusts are
used to either transfer assets to heirs with little or no gift tax or to create a different way to make gifts if the grantor has
already used significant charitable income tax deductions. CLATs have no minimum payout percentage.

Donor Advised Funds (DAF) - A DAF is a special account established at a Community Foundation. It allows a donor to
make a gift of property without specifying the final charitable purpose for the gift. Donors often are allowed to maintain
money management responsibility for the DAF and can also direct the Community Foundation as to where the charitable
funds are ultimately distributed. The Community Foundation is not technically bound to direct the funds to the donor’s
selection but as a practical matter most follow the donor’s wishes. DAFs have no annual minimum requirement for
distribution and are usually inexpensive to establish.

Limited Liability Company/Charitable Remainder Trust (LLC/CRT) - In this strategy a gift of appreciated property is made
to an LLC. The LLC then gifts the property to a CRT in exchange for the income interest. The LLC is then sold to a Grantor
Deemed Owned Trust (GDOT) in exchange for a note. Because of the fact that the LLC only owns the income stream due
from the CRT, and the LLC has restrictions on marketability and liquidity, the “discount” available for the sale to the GDOT
should be substantial.

Family Limited Partnership (FLP) - FLPs are a form of business entity that can be utilized to facilitate the transfer of assets.
Ownership interests are divided into General Partner (GP) and Limited Partner (LP) shares. GPs maintain control of the
entity even though they may own a small percentage of the total FLP. LP interests have ownership but no control. Because
the LPs have no control over their interests FLPs often receive significant valuation adjustments when valued by appraisers.
This allows the LP units to be transferred or sold at less than their full monetary value. FLPs also enjoy strong creditor
protection and are therefore effective for family asset protection purposes.

                                                                                                                                   Page 83
Long Term Care Insurance (LTC) - This type of insurance is meant to protect families from the catastrophic costs of care
due to a prolonged illness. Coverage is usually provided as a “per day” cost and many policies feature various riders that
protect against inflation. Coverage applies not only for nursing home and rehabilitation facilities but for home health care
costs as well. Policies can be structured so that they are paid for over a lifetime or for a period of years. Some policies
refund the premiums that have been paid at the death of the insured. LTC is income tax deductible to C Corporations and
owners of those corporations may “discriminate” as to which employees are covered.

Walton Grantor Retained Annuity Trust (Walton GRAT) - In a typical GRAT assets are transferred to a trust and the
grantor of the trust receives an income stream for a period of years. What is left in the trust at the end of its term is
transferred to beneficiaries, normally the grantor’s heirs. The normal structure of a GRAT is meant to use “leverage” to
reduce or eliminate the taxable gift to the heirs form the GRAT. This type of normal GRAT causes all of the GRAT assets to
be included in the grantor’s estate if the grantor dies during the GRAT period. The Walton GRAT provides an exception to
this rule, thereby allowing GRAT payments to continue after death and the GRAT assets not reverting to the grantor.

Revocable Living Trust (RLT) - A foundational document of most estate plans, the RLT is a trust that is established by an
individual for the purpose of holding and managing the assets of the individual. The trust is a non-entity for income tax
purposes. That is, the grantor of the trust is still responsible to report and pay the income tax due on any trust assets. RLTs
are also effective in the event of a disability or incompetence of the grantor, in that they name a successor trustee who can
step in to the shoes of the grantor without a court proceeding. RLTs are often established in order for the grantor’s estate to
avoid probate. Further, a properly drafted RLT can be utilized to take advantage of the estate exemption in order to
minimize estate taxes.

Preferred Limited Partnership (LP) - This type of LP creates two different classes of limited partner. LP units are allocated
between “common” and “preferred” classes. The common interests are generally entitled to receive any of the growth
associated with the underlying assets of the LP. The preferred receive a stated percentage income return, e.g. 5%. Because
of the possible disparity of return between the two types of units often have different values when appraised. This allows
the General Partner of the LP to make different decisions as to the ultimate disposition of the two types of interests. This
type of LP can provide substantial planning leverage for the appropriate estate.

Life Insurance - While life insurance has been available for a very long time it is often dismissed. However, properly
structured life insurance can add an element of safety and certainty to most estate plans. Life insurance death benefits are
generally income tax free and policies that are properly owned outside of the estate can also be estate tax free. Many
policies have guarantees that will keep the policy in force as long as premiums are paid in a timely fashion, regardless of
interest rate or company mortality fluctuations.


                                                                                                                                  Page 84
Rent to Own - This strategy couples a short term Qualified Personal Residence Trust (QPRT) with an Irrevocable Life
Insurance Trust (ILIT). The ILIT is a beneficiary of the QPRT and at the termination of the QPRT term receives premium
payments in the form of rental income. This allows the client to pay large insurance premiums without annual gifting,
Crummey notices or income tax consequences.

Life Settlements - This strategy involves the sale of a life insurance policy to an independent third party. There are many
reasons to consider this type of transaction. The client may no longer need the insurance; the policy may be in danger of
lapsing while the client is unwilling or unable to make the necessary premium payments; or there may be newer, more
appropriate and cost effective insurance needed for the clients’ current circumstances.

529 Plans - 529 Plans represent a special section of the tax code which has been enacted to encourage the funding of post
high school education. Each state has its own plan but individuals may choose the plan of any state they wish to use. 529
plans allow an individual to establish an investment account for themselves or for another person (normally children or
grandchildren). Investment returns grow on a tax free basis and, if utilized for post high school educational purposes,
remain tax free. While the funds are generally out of the estate of the grantor of the plan, the grantor may take them back at
any time. While they will have to pay income tax as well as a 10% penalty on the earnings, it is often reassuring to have the
knowledge that the funds are retrievable in the event of an economic emergency. The law further allows the grantor to
make five years of gifts to the 529 plan in one year. That is, $60,000 can be deposited currently in a plan for the benefit of
another, and then the grantor must wait until the sixth year to make any additional deposits.

Family Limited Liability Company (FLLC) - Much like the FLP, a FLLC is a type of business entity that provides for the
centralized pooling and management of family assets. Owners of FLLC units are considered “members” and there is usually a
single “managing member”. FLLCs are a relatively new for of entity and there is less case law regarding their uses and
nuances when compared to FLPs. However, many jurisdictions have passed favorable FLLC statutes and therefore the FLLC
should be carefully considered in the proper jurisdiction.

Crummey Powers - Most traditional life insurance trusts contain what are known as “Crummey Powers” which grant the
beneficiaries of the trust the right to withdraw money that has been contributed to the trust (normally to pay insurance
premiums), for a period of time. This allows the contribution to be a gift of a “present interest” and therefore qualify for the
application of the annual exclusion. The name “Crummey” power derives from the court case that originally challenged and
won on this principle.

Jurisdictional Trusts - These trusts are normally established because of the favorable laws of a specific jurisdiction. These
could be any type of trust, revocable or irrevocable, grantor or non-grantor. What’s important is that the specific legal
foundation of the jurisdiction is favorable for the application sought. These could be state specific, i. e. Delaware for asset
protection or Dynasty provision, or could even be international such as Cook Islands or Nevis for asset protection.

                                                                                                                                   Page 85
Succession Planning - This is the process by which the owner of a closely held business determines who will take over the
business and how and when the transition will take place. While not necessarily a codified estate planning “technique” a
business without an organized succession plan will be more likely to fail and have to be sold or liquidated. The economic
result to the family may be different than planned for or anticipated.

Grantor Retained Annuity Trust (GRAT) - The GRAT transaction entails the transfer of assets to a trust whereby the
grantor retains an income from the trust for a period of years and the remainder transfers to beneficiaries at the end of the
trust term. The “remainder” is calculated using IRS tables and is considered a gift to the remainder beneficiaries. Therefore,
many GRATs are structured to produce a “zero” gift and hope to take advantage of the possible arbitrage of the return of the
assets in the GRAT compared to the IRS rates utilized to calculate the trust remainder. The disadvantage of the regular GRAT
transaction is that if the grantor dies during the trust period, all of the assets in the GRAT are included back in the grantors
estate.

Sale for Installment Note - This transaction is normally coupled with other techniques to improve the results. Often a
family will use an FLP or FLLP and sell interests that have been appraised at a reduced value because of lack of liquidity and
marketability. The buyer is often a trust for the beneficiaries, which purchases the discounted assets for the installment
note. While the note is in the estate of the seller, it is usually of less value than the assets that have been sold. The note can
be structured to be paid as “interest only” or it may be amortized.

Gifting - A simple way to transfer assets to beneficiaries. An individual may currently gift $11,000 of property to any other
individual, annually ($12,000 beginning in 2006). Further, every individual can currently give away up to        $1 million of
assets during their lifetime without incurring gift taxes. Making gifts of property that is discounted in some way can be
advantageous in transferring more than the statutory amount.

Annuity Withdrawal - Often families ignore the funds that clients have in commercial annuities. Since funds are
accumulating on a tax-deferred basis, this is often a logical approach. However, since annuities remain in the estate of the
owner and are therefore subject to estate tax and income in respect of a decedent tax, it is often advisable to begin a
systematic program of annuity withdrawal. Frequently the after-tax proceeds of the withdrawal can be utilized to subsidize
lifestyle or to purchase life insurance to replace the dollars that would be lost to the double taxation of the annuity.

Dynasty Trust - This type of trust allows assets that are contributed to the trust to remain in the trust for multiple
generations. Because of this provision, the trust assets will pass outside of the estate tax system and will also be protected
from the claims of a trust beneficiary’s creditors. This type of irrevocable trust must be established in a jurisdiction that
allows multi-generational trusts.


                                                                                                                                     Page 86
Premium Finance - When purchasing life insurance, many families face the possibility of making taxable gifts because the
amount of the premium exceeds the amount of annual gifting available to the insured. Using the option of premium
financing may alleviate this problem. Funds are provided by a third party lender who pays the premium. The insured usually
pays only the interest on the borrowed funds while the principal of the loan accumulates and is often repaid from the
insurance proceeds at the insured’s death. While complicated, premium financing can be an interesting solution for funding
large policies.

Buy-Sell Agreements - This type of contract is normally associated with the owners of a closely business to allow for the
disability, abandonment of the business, or untimely death of any of the owners. The agreements describe the provisions by
which an owner’s share of the business will be redeemed. Buy-sells can be funded with disability and life insurance or they
may be unfunded and, therefore, rely on the cash flow of the business to fund the buy out. Providing liquidity for the estate
of the business owner is often the reason for the formation and execution of a buy-sell.

Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust (ILIT) - In many estate plans, it is best to own life insurance outside of the taxable estate.
The ILIT is the most common and flexible form of trust to accomplish this function. The ILIT will be the owner and
beneficiary of one or more life insurance policies and will obligated to pay the premiums, collect the proceeds at death and
distribute the funds to beneficiaries per the provisions of the trust. This is a good way to engage professional management
in the management and oversight of the trust funds. ILITs may be established as Dynasty Trusts, if so desired.

Asset Protection - This is a broad category of planning which may involve one or more different strategies. Each of the
techniques seeks to provide insulate assets from the attack of creditors. Various trusts, FLPs, FLLCs and other entities may
be considered for asset protection. Further, there are choices of jurisdiction both domestic and foreign that may provide
favorable environments for asset protection. Those in high risk profession or those with high risk assets generally fit the
profile for implementing asset protection strategies.

Intra Family Loans - A simple solution that allows family members to make loans at the current Applicable Federal Rate
(AFR), this strategy allows for possible arbitrage gains when the AFR is low relative to long term investment results.
Furthermore, it is often possible for discounts to apply to the value of the notes in the event of the death of the lender.

Corporate Recapitalization - Many closely held companies only have one class of stock, known as common voting stock.
When considering options for estate planning, the closely held company stock often represents a major portion of the
estate. In order to facilitate transfer while retaining control of the company, it is possible to “recapitalize” the company by
redeeming the outstanding shares and issuing new shares which are divided between “voting” and “non-voting” shares. The
non-voting shares are then transferred by sale or gift and because of their non-voting status appraisals often reflect a greatly
reduced value for these shares. Recapitalizations are available to S corporations as well as C corporations.

                                                                                                                                   Page 87
Self Canceling Installment Note (SCIN) - Like other installment notes, the SCIN originates when assets are sold. As the
name implies the SCIN obligation is cancelled when the obligation is fully paid or at the death of the seller. Because of the
self-canceling feature of the SCIN, the seller receives a “premium” amount that is higher than a normal installment
obligation. The premium is reflected in one of two ways; either more principal is added to the balance or a higher (than
current federal tables) interest rate is applied to the obligation. SCINs may be effective in circumstances where the seller is
not expected to live to their IRS computed life expectancy.

Grantor Deemed Owned Trust (GDOT) - This type of trust has several unique properties that make it a very powerful
estate planning tool. First, when assets are transferred to the trust either by gift or by sale, they are removed from the estate
of the grantor. Second, the assets in the GDOT remain income taxable to the grantor of the trust. While this may not seem
like a positive attribute, the grantor’s recognition and payment of the income taxes essentially allows the assets in the
GDOT to grow free of income taxes outside of the estate. This can greatly increase the ultimate value of the assets
transferred to the trust.

Captive Planning - Business owners often have risks that are either under-insured or are too expensive to insure. Those
who have excess taxable income may choose to establish their own insurance entity, know as a “Captive.” These are most
done in international jurisdictions since the tax laws favor this type of arrangement. These structures are very complex and
require specialized planning but can also provide very favorable income and estate tax benefits.

Qualified Personal Residence Trust (QPRT) - This technique involves transferring a residence by gift to a trust for a period
of years. Normally, a gift tax return is filed for the year that the QPRT is funded. At the end of the trust period, the residence
becomes the property of the beneficiaries of the trust. Because the gift is made currently and vests in the beneficiary at a
later date, there is a discount on the value of the transfer which is calculated utilizing IRS tables. One risk of the QPRT is if
the transferor dies during the QPRT term, the house reverts to the estate of the transferor. After the QPRT terminates, the
transferor should pay rent to the transferees as in any other commercial transaction.

Leveraged Roth Conversions - Under certain circumstances it is possible to convert a traditional IRA account to a Roth
IRA. This may be an effective strategy, though it requires the payment of income taxes on the converted amount. Use of
borrowed funds to pay taxes can make this a very strong strategy.

Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOP) - Closely held businesses often have no clear exit strategy. An ESOP can provide
a ready market since the ESOP effectively sells a portion of the company stock to a qualified plan which must include the
employees of the company. The owner may receive property which will allow a diversification of his assets that have been
concentrated in their own company. ESOPs take many forms and are often complex transactions.



                                                                                                                                     Page 88
412(i) - This type of defined benefit pension plan is structured to allow the investments in the plan to be either life
insurance and/or commercial annuities. Normally these products are designed to produce a low guaranteed rate of return
which causes the annual contribution and, therefore, the income tax deduction to the participants in the plan, to be
relatively high. 412(i) may be appropriate for an older business owner who has few employees.

IRA Maximizer - This strategy is for those individuals who have significant balance in their IRA (or other qualified plan) and
who do not need the funds to live on. Normally, the IRA invests all or some of its assets in a newly formed family limited
partnership (flp) and the flp invests all or some of its assets in a restricted management account (rma). The result of the
transaction is that there will be a reduction in appraised value of the account because of the illiquid nature of the rma and
the flp. By structuring the transaction properly, the IRA owner may reduce income taxes on required minimum distributions
and estate taxes because of the reduction in apprised value.

Limited Partnership Owned Life Insurance - An alternative to owning life insurance in an irrevocable life insurance trust
(ILIT), families often use a Limited Partnership. This is normally done as one step in a transaction whereby the limited
partnership units will be sold or otherwise transferred out of the estate of the insured. Further, there are usually other assets
contributed to the partnership that will fund the insurance premiums. Done properly, the life insurance death benefit can
remain outside of the estate of the insured while some degree of control through the control granted by retaining the
General Partner interest.

Family Bank - a combination of strategies that may include an LLC and/or a multi-generational irrevocable trust. The
purpose of the family bank is to create an entity that will allow several generations of family members to have access to
wealth for various purposes but also with a great degree of monitoring and supervision. A family bank may lend money to an
heir to purchase a home or to start a business but will first assess the appropriateness of the transaction against a set of
guidelines that have been drafted into the formation documents.

GRANTOR DEEMED OWNER TRUSTS
                                                 BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN


Overview of Advantages. The sale to defective trust technique is an estate freezing technique, to transfer future
appreciation above a very low stated interest rate. Furthermore, to the extent that the note is paid during the
grantors lifetime, the grantor will not have any recognition of income (as would ordinarily be the case with an
installment sale to family members.) In several respects, the sale to a defective trust is a preferable technique as
compared to the GRAT (see Section VII below). However, the grantor trust must be 'seeded' with some significant
equity before the sale should occur.


II. Description.

A. Step 1. Create and 'Seed" Grantor Trust. The individual should create a trust that is treated as a grantor trust for
federal income tax purposes (meaning that the grantor is the owner of the trust for income tax purposes). The trust
will be structured as a grantor trust for income tax purposes, but will be structured so that the grantor is not deemed
to own the trust for estate tax purposes. This type of trust (which is treated as owned by the grantor for income but
not estate tax purposes) is sometimes called a 'defective trust'.

The grantor trust should be 'seeded' with meaningful assets prior to a sale. (For example, the trust should hold
approximately 10% in value of the eventual trust assets after a purchase occurs in step 2.) The seed money can be
accomplished either through gifts to the trust, or through transfer's to the trust from other vehicles, such as a GRAT.

B. Step 2. Sale for Installment Note. The individual will sell property to the grantor trust in return for an
installment note for the full value of the property (taking into account appropriate valuation discounts). The note is
often structured to provide interest only annual payments with a balloon payment at the end of the note term. The
interest is typically structured to be equal to the §7872 rate (which is even lower than the §7520 rate which is used
for structuring GRATS).




                                                                                                                          Page 90
C. Step 3. Operation During Term of Note. Hopefully the trust will have sufficient cash to make the interest
payments on the note. If not, the trust could distribute in-kind assets of the trust in satisfaction of the interest
payments. Payment of the interest, whether in cash or with appreciated property, should not generate any gain to
the trust or to the grantor, because the grantor is deemed to be the owner of the trust for income tax purposes in any
event.

Because the trust is a grantor trust, the grantor will owe income taxes with respect to income earned by the trust. To
the extent that the entity owned by the trust is making distributions to assist the owners in making income tax
payments, the cash distributions to the trust could be used by the trust to make note payments to the grantor/seller,
so that the grantor/seller will have sufficient cash to make the income tax payments.

D. Step 4. Pay Note During Seller's Lifetime. Plan to repay the note entirely during the seller's lifetime. Income
tax effects may result if the note has not been paid fully by the time of the seller's death. See Section V.B. below.


Ill.   Estate Tax Effects.

A. Note Includible In Estate. The installment note (including any accumulated interest) will be included in the
grantor/seller's estate.

B. Assets Sold To Trust Excluded From Estate. The asset that was sold to the trust will not be includible in the
grantor's estate, regardless how long the grantor/seller survives.

C. Grantor's Payment Of Income Taxes. The grantor's payment of income taxes on income of the grantor trust
further decreases the grantor's estate that remains at the grantor's death for estate tax purposes.

IV. Gift Tax Effects.

A. The grantor must "seed" the trust with approximately 1 0% of the overall value to be transferred to the trust by a
combination of gift and sale. This could be accomplished with an outright gift when the grantor trust is created.
Alternatively, the grantor trust could receive the remaining amount in a GRAT at the termination of a GRAT to
provide seeding for a further installment sale.

B. No Gift From Sale. The sale to the trust will not be treated as a gift (assuming the values are correct, and
assuming that there is sufficient equity in the trust to support valuing the note at its full face value.) There is no clear
authority for using a valuation adjustment clause as exists under the regulations for GRATS.
                                                                                                                               Page 91
V. Income Tax Effects.

A. Initial Sale. The initial sale to the trust does not cause immediate gain recognition, because the grantor is treated
as the owner of the trust for income tax purposes. Regulation §1.1001-2(c)Ex.5; Rev. Rul. 86-13,1985-1 C.B. 184.

B. Seller Dies Before Note Paid In Full. If the seller dies before the note is paid off, the IRS may argue that gain
recognition is triggered at the client's death. The better view would seem to be that gain recognition is deferred
under Section 453 until the obligation is satisfied after the seller's death. The recipient of installment payments
would treat the payments as income in respect of decedent. Presumably, the trustee would increase the trust's basis
in a portion of the business interest to reflect any gain actually recognized.


VI. Generation-Skipping Transfer Tax Effects. Once the trust has been seeded, and GST exception has been
allocated to cover that gift, no further GST exemption need be allocated to the trust with respect to the sale
(assuming that it is for full value).


VII.   Advantages of Sale to Defective Trust Technique.

A. No Survival Requirement. The estate freeze is completed without the requirement for survival for a designated
period.

B. Low Interest Rate. The interest rate on the note can probably be based on the § 7872 rate, which is significantly
lower than the §7520 rate which must be used for structuring the annuity payments from GRATS. For example, in a
month in which the §7520 rate was 5.6%, the short term §7872 rate was 4.62%.)

C. GST Exempt. The sale can be made to a GST exempt trust, or a trust for grandchildren, so that all future
appreciation following the sale will be in an exempt trust with no need for further GST exemption allocation.

D. lnterst Only-Balloon Note. The installment note can be structured as an interest only-balloon note. With a
GRAT, the annuity payments cannot increase more than 120% in any year, requiring that substantial annuity payments
be paid in each year.

E. Gift Amount May Approximate GRAT Gift For Older Individuals. For older individuals and longer term GRATS,
the gift amount with a GRAT may approximate the 10% seed gift amount that would be needed with a sale to a
defective trust.
                                                                                                                           Page 92
VIII. Risks.

A. Treatment Of Note As Retained Equity Interest. Under extreme circumstances, it is possible that the IRS may
take the position is treated as a retained equity interest in the trust rather than as a mere note from the trust. If so,
this would raise potential questions of whether some of the trust assets should be included in the grantors estate
under §2036 and 2702. It would seem that §2036 (which generally causes estate inclusion where the grantor has
made a qift of an asset and retained the right to the income from that asset) should not apply to the extent that the
grantor has sold (rather than gifted) the asset for full market value. See Letter Rulings 9436006 (stock contributed to
grantor trust and other stock sold to trust for 25 year note; ruling holds §2702 does not apply); 9251004 (transfer of
$5.0 million of stock to trust in return for $1.5 million note in 'sale/gift" transaction; ruling held that §2036 applies to
retained right to payments under note, reasoning that note payments would constitute a major share, if not all, of the
trust income, thus causing inclusion of trust property in estate); 9535026 (property sold to grantor trust for note,
interest only at AFR rate for 20 years with a balloon payment at end of 20 years; held that the note is treated as debt
and 'debt instrument is not a retained interest" for purposes of §2702).

B. Potential Gain Recognition If Seller Dies Before Note Paid. There is potential gain recognition if the seller dies
before all of the note payments are made. The IRS may argue that the gain is accelerated to the moment of death. It
would seem more likely that the gain should not be recognized until payments are actually made on the note.




                                                                                                                               Page 93
CAPTIVE INSURANCE COMPANIES
                                                    BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN



CAPTIVE INSURANCE COMPANY DEFINED
A captive is a bona fide insurance or reinsurance company. Its business is primarily supplied by and controlled by its
owners, which are also normally the principal insureds. These owners/insureds participate in controlling the underwriting,
claims and investment decisions of the insurance company. A number of different
types of captives exist:
• Single parent or group
• Direct writing or fronted
• Onshore or offshore
• Agency captive
• Risk retention group
• Property/casualty only or life/benefits only (sometimes a mix of the two)
• Writers of related business or some unrelated business
• Primary or excess layer captive
• Stock, mutual or reciprocal
• Rent-a-captive, cell captive or sponsored captive.

REASONS TO FORM A CAPTIVE INSURANCE COMPANY
There are many reasons for starting or continuing to use a captive insurance company. These reasons tend to change in
priority over time as the needs of the owners evolve. For example, during hard insurance market cycles, cost and capacity
are key drivers for the use of a captive insurance company. Owners have started or continue to use a captive in order to:

Reduce or stabilize cost: Typically, financing risk in a captive lowers overall costs and helps an organization to stabilize
costs over the long-term because it is less susceptible to the vagaries of the insurance market. Cost savings include no profit
load, elimination or reduction of broker commissions, and lower administrative costs. The owners share in all earnings
through policyholder dividends or shareholder dividends. Another element of savings is the avoidance of costly insurance
regulations, including payments into residual market pools and state premium taxes. Loss-cost savings might also be
achievable where the captive serves to heighten risk management and cost awareness of senior management and operating
management. These savings often exceed the cost of setting up and running the captive.




                                                                                                                                  Page 94
Increase capacity and provide access to reinsurance: Captives by themselves only offer limited capacity. Captives can,
however, access the capacity of the reinsurance markets and may be able to offer more limits of coverage than are available
in the retail market. For example, multiple reinsurers may participate on a “slip” to offer millions of dollars of additional
capacity that would not otherwise be available.

Exert control: Captives were originally formed by insurance buyers who were tired of the cycles of the insurance market.
They sought control of underwriting, rates and forms, as well as control of claim settlements and investments.

Provide coverage: Captives can provide coverage to subsidiaries and members that would not otherwise be available.
These include professional liability, punitive damages and business risks.

Provide freedom of rate and form: A direct-writing captive can offer specially tailored wordings, which reinsurers may
then follow.

Establish better-than-average claim experience: The claim history of the captive’s insureds may be better than the overall
class of business for a commercial insurer. If so, there is a good argument for retaining the risk in a captive rather than
subsidizing the poor claims experience of competitors.

Recapture investment income and accelerate/manage cash flow: Corporate treasurers like captives because the
investment income that usually stays with commercial insurers may be wholly or partially recaptured in a captive.

Take advantage of insurance accounting: Insurance companies get special tax treatment; they can accrue tax-deductible
reserves for unpaid claims, whether known or estimated, and in the case of life insurance reserves, pay no tax on inside
build-up of interest income. Furthermore, tax accounting for non-insurance companies with captives has been trending
toward a similar treatment.

Take advantage of tax deductibility: There are still tax advantages to be gained by using captives, especially those with
multiple owners or insureds and those where the insureds and the shareholders are not the same. Deductibility of premiums
and deferred taxation of insurance income are the two principal advantages.

Tax issues can be a major driver, but they should not be the only reason for forming a captive. If they are, the captive might
not stand up under scrutiny of tax authorities and regulations. Before considering a captive, a company should seek the
advice of qualified legal counsel.



                                                                                                                                 Page 95
Offer perceived “safety” of formalized services: Captive books and records are audited; the reserve for claims is reviewed
by actuaries; their investments are managed by investment professionals, and their accounts are maintained by independent
managers. All of these services formalize the risk financing process. In many cases, formalized services are perceived by
captive owners to be superior to unformalized in-house services, unallocated funding or no funding whatsoever.

Take advantage of favorable regulations: Some captives are formed offshore to escape unnecessary insurance solvency
regulations. Offshore captive insurance solvency regulation, like onshore captive solvency regulation, is designed to protect
policyholders. Some believe captive regulation is weak. However, in well-regulated domiciles, such as Bermuda and
Vermont, regulation is not lax and permissive.

Provide administrative tool to fund retentions: Large organizations often create and maintain captive insurance
companies to fund the difference between their large corporate deductible or retention and the relatively small deductible
or retentions sought by the organization’s individual business units. By using a captive, the central organization can offer
fixed-cost insurance to the business units above modest deductible while retaining the potential variability for losses within
the overall organization’s risk-bearing capacity.

Support risk management: The financial “stick” provided by the captive can be combined with a reward “carrot” to
influence operational behavior. It also gives the risk manager more leverage in the organization than an annual cost
allocation process does by itself.

Increase access to innovative deals: A captive can help provide access to certain deals. Some of the more innovative
arrangements include loss portfolio transfers and relief derived from transferring liabilities from one balance sheet to
another.

Warehouse data: A captive can provide the organization with a tool for collecting more and better data to support its cost
management efforts. For example, a captive can serve as a central information repository for common disability cost
management purposes as an organization finances select employee benefit risks (e.g., short-term or long-term disability)
along with its workers compensation risks.

Support strategic partners: Organizations can make coverage available for their various business partners, such as key
suppliers or customers, independent contractors or attending physicians, when the traditional market’s price or terms are
unfavorable. This approach might also provide profit and tax management advantages to the captive’s parent.

Make a profit: Some captives are formed specifically to underwrite a customer’s risks or offer third-party insurance.
Although they should not be called captives, they sometimes are. These entities can add value to an organization by tying
customers to the owner and offering a stream of profits.

                                                                                                                                 Page 96
EVALUATING IF A CAPTIVE MAKES SENSE FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION

To examine whether a captive makes financial and/or strategic sense, a feasibility study should be conducted. If the results
of the feasibility study are positive, a more formal business plan is then developed.

Feasibility Study
A feasibility study is a rigorous quantitative and qualitative assessment of the key aspects of a captive’s business in relation
to current operations and costs. The quantitative features of a feasibility study include coverage offering, premiums, capital
and surplus, claims projections, reserves, expenses, reinsurance, investment income and taxes. The qualitative features
include ownership, governance, domicile, structure of the transaction and management. The feasibility study has three main
components. The first is the design and structure of the coverage and the transactions for insurance and reinsurance. This
component also includes discussion of the domicile and governance. The second component is a determination of the
financial commitment required to support the design. Last is a comparison of the after tax cost between alternative
programs and an evaluation of qualitative issues.

The feasibility study should follow a methodical process and include the following major steps:
1. Collect and review relevant background information including descriptive background literature (e.g., marketing/service
brochures, annual reports, audited financial statements), schedule of insurance (e.g., coverage lines, premiums, limits,
retentions, insurers) and summary of historical annual risk financing costs.

2. Hold a strategy session with management and outside experts (e.g., actuarial, tax and regulatory) to review information,
confirm objectives/goals and discuss probable financial implications of captive formation. The agenda for this meeting
typically includes:
a. Background and goals: background information on history, ownership, organizational structure and governance; overall
mission and goals; financials; insurance program; risk financing issues
b. Actuarial or data issues: actuarial techniques to be used, additional loss data or exposure information needed, insurance
company expense loads, other issues and concerns
c. Reinsurance marketplace overview: review of market, future expectations, reinsurance options, issues and concerns
d.Tax and regulatory basics: federal income taxes, federal excise taxes, state premium and self-procurement taxes, state
income taxes, domicile taxes and fees, regulatory issues, insurance company structure options
e. Design: discussion of possible relevant options and targeting of best option
f. Summary and next steps.

3. Develop projections of expected loss experience for relevant exposures.

4. Estimate operational expenses associated with the captive and determine the captive premium.


                                                                                                                                   Page 97
5. Advise on appropriate capital levels or margin for risk to support the written exposure.

6. Describe qualitative factors that need to be considered relative to the formation of a captive, including:
a. Comparison of domiciles and recommendation of location
b. Discussion of structural parameters of a captive, including ownership, governance and control
c. Review of ongoing management issues and required support services
d. Discussion of whether a captive addresses other issues.

7. Prepare pro forma financial statements presenting the balance sheets and income statements for a captive over a five-year
period on an “expected case” basis and under alternative scenarios.

8. Compare the proposed captive program versus the current program, based on financial and nonfinancial criteria.

9. Prepare and present findings. Once the decision to form a captive insurance company has been made, a company needs
to develop a business plan, visit the selected domicile to meet with regulators and interview service providers, and prepare
and submit an application. In addition, the company needs to secure reinsurance support and select service providers.
Finally, the company needs to capitalize and fund the captive.

The Business Plan

A well thought out business plan is the foundation of a successful company, and a captive is no exception. The components
of a captive’s business plan should be derived from its feasibility study, although the business plan may be organized and
presented in a different format. The business plan will serve as a basis against which the owners/insureds can measure the
performance of their insurance company annually. A modified version of the business plan will likely be provided to the
regulators of the chosen domicile and will also serve as their benchmark for measuring the operations and performance of
the company. A good business plan typically includes the following elements:

• Overview and purpose
• Program design and structure
• Structure of governance, including board representation, ownership and corporate form
• Coverage and limits offered, including underwriting policy
• Financial resources — premiums, capital and investments
• Reinsurance and risk management
• Claims management
• Safety and loss prevention programs
• Management and service providers
• Pro forma financial highlights, including “what if” alternative models showing the result of one or more bad loss years,
unfavorable investment outcomes and any other likely downside scenario                                                         Page 98

  • 3. YOUR GOALS AND OBJECTIVES BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN Maintain our customary lifestyle. This should take about $641,000 annually after taxes and gifts. Provide for the financial security of the surviving spouse. Explore options for a business succession plan that maximizes the after-tax proceeds from the sale of the business. Create sufficient funds for retirement. We wish to continue giving charitably during our lives and wish to create a significant charitable gift upon death in order to leave a family legacy. We would like to leave our children and grandchildren an inheritance in an amount that leaves them comfortable, but not in a manner that they become non-productive members of society. Reduce income taxes if possible. Implement an asset protection structure that protects our assets and the assets our children & grandchildren will inherit. Eliminate or reduce estate taxes. Assure we have sufficient liquid assets available at our deaths to avoid a forced liquidation of our business and real estate assets. Page 2

  • 7. YOUR GOALS AND OBJECTIVES - ACCOMPLISHED BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN Cash Flow - The plan provides cash flow to maintain your lifestyle at $641,000 increasing annually at 3% after taxes and gifts Business Continuation - The plan lays a foundation for business succession, while leaving control with you. Income tax deferral - Over the next 5 years income taxes could be reduced by as much as $2,600,000 Inheritance Planning - The proposed plan provides for an inheritance to your children and executive team of at least 75% of your estate and manages your children's inheritance in a way that provides them with opportunities, while limiting the dangers associated with receiving too much, too soon. Charitable Giving - Your family foundation could expect future gifts of more than $35,000,000 Estate Tax Elimination - Under your current plan, assuming current law, your estate taxes would be in excess of $392,696,058 at life expectancy. The plan eliminates those estate taxes entirely. Liquidity - The continued investment of company profit back into the company creates a need for liquidity. The plan helps this problem. Page 6
  • 8. PLAN ASSUMPTIONS BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN The plan is based on numerous assumptions. Important among these are the yield and growth assumptions contained on the balance sheet in the Financial Analysis section. Other important assumptions are contained on this Plan Assumptions page. Tax Rate Assumptions State Income Tax Rate 9% State Inheritance - Estate Tax No state estate tax Tax on IRD Unless a qualified plan is given to charity, we assume the beneficiary designations are changed to provide for a stretch out distribution. 7520 Rates Highest rate 3.0% March, 2011 Current rate 3.0% April, 2011 Lowest rate 2.8% January, 2011 Long Term AFR Rate 4.3% April, 2011 Annual increase in Ben's earned income 2% Number of years Ben's income is expected to continue 4 Lifestyle Need Assumptions Net annual outlay for Ben and Amanda's lifestyle needs, not including gifts or income taxes $641,000 Annual cost of living increase used in the plan 3% Settlement and Administrative Expenses Fixed estate settlement costs $25,000 Variable estate settlement costs, 1st death 0.50% (of assets) Variable estate settlement costs, 2nd death 1.00% (of assets) Page 7
  • 9. INTRODUCTION TO THE PLAN STRATEGIES ROADMAP BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN The following section of the plan contains a step by step roadmap for each of the strategies that we are recommending. You will notice that the strategies are often interdependent; that is, in order for one strategy to be successful, you must complete another strategy as well. It is the integration of each of these strategies that allows you to most efficiently accomplish your goals. Also keep in mind that there is often more than one way to get from point A to point B. This is true in wealth transfer planning. If a particular strategy or combination of strategies is not acceptable to you, we may be able to reach the desired result in a less efficient but perhaps more acceptable way. The following pages are a conceptual road map only, there are numerous details contained in each strategy that are not detailed in the overall plan that follows. Page 8

  • 44. COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN All strategies have an element of risk; a chance that the program adopted does not work as planned. Estate planning strategies carry an element of risk as well. Many advisors warn their clients of risk but do not make an effort to quantify those risks. We have taken the position in our planning that if a risk is quantifiable, it should be identified as such and the cost of the risk should be disclosed to our client. When the risk is not quantifiable, this should also be disclosed. Any risk analysis begins with two questions: What is the reward to be gained by taking the risk? What is the cost of the potential loss if the plan fails totally? If you are satisfied that the reward is worth the risk and that the risk of loss is acceptable, it would then make sense to pursue the strategy. If the risk is such that you could not comfortably accept the loss, then the risk should not be taken. Is the reward worth the risk? The reward of the proposed plan results in an advantage to your heirs today of $17,436,998 over your existing plan. The reward of the proposed plan results in an advantage to your heirs at life expectancy of $215,524,472 over your existing plan. What if the Plan fails totally? There are 4 basic areas of potential risk involved in this comprehensive plan. We assume total failure of all planning techniques in order to provide a worst case analysis. Transaction costs Planning Fees - Attorneys Fees - Valuation Fees - Total $ - Annual Maintenance Fee $ - Taxes This represents the taxes that will have to be paid if the plan fails entirely. Note that this is the same amount that would be paid without the planning. Total additional tax over current plan = $0 Page 43
  • 45. COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS (Continued) BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN Interest (cost of money) Interest is charged on late tax payments by the IRS at the rate of the applicable federal rate plus 3%. You must invest at a rate less than this rate to lose money. Assuming that assets earn in excess of that rate, there should be no risk of loss due to cost of money. Nonetheless, we assume that assets actually earn 2% less than the IRS interest rates, and the risk of loss would be $262,551. Penalties Assuming the plan is implemented with the help of knowledgeable advisors, the only potential penalty is for substantial undervaluation. The penalty comes into play in the case of a challenge to asset valuation. If the value reported for a transaction is less than 65% of the value as finally determined for tax purposes (by the IRS or the courts) then there is a 25% substantial undervaluation penalty. The valuation adjustment assumed in this plan is 35.00%. Therefore, an adjustment should not result in a substantial valuation penalty.

  • 81. DISCLAIMER AND DISCLOSURE BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN InKnowVision, LLC does not give accounting or investment advice to its clients. The effectiveness of any of the strategies described will depend on your individual situation and on a number of complex factors. You should consult with your other advisors on the accounting and investment implications of the proposed strategies before any strategy is implemented. Any discussion in this presentation relating to tax, accounting, investments, regulatory, or legal matters is based on our understanding as of the date of this presentation. Rules in these areas are constantly changing and are open to varying interpretations. Assumption Issues The plan involves numerous assumptions. While we believe that these assumptions are reasonable, it is important to understand that it is a virtual certainty that the actual results will differ from those illustrated. Returns on investment and performance of financial products can cause the results to vary. Changes in tax, trust or property laws can cause plan results to vary. Plan implementation that differs from that described in the plan will cause the results to vary. Provision of state law may cause the plan results to vary. Tax Opinions The IRS has recently issued new rules for tax practitioners regarding covered opinions, reliance opinions and marketed opinions. While this is an arcane area, suffice it to say that these opinions are often obtained by taxpayers for purposes of avoiding penalties. These opinions are obtained at substantial cost and after substantial legal analysis. If you believe that such an opinion would be helpful to you prior to entering into any of the transactions outlined in this plan, you should feel free do so. Be advised that nothing in this analysis should be construed by you, your advisors or any one else as a covered opinion, reliance opinion, marketed opinion or any other type of opinion regarding any of the transactions or outcomes outlined in this plan.

  • 82. APPENDIX BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN Many of our clients like to read about some of the strategies that we have recommended. Both as further education and as a reminder of the main points involved in the strategies. The appendix material that follows includes information about the planning strategies recommended. Not all strategies are included. Only those that likely require additional explanation. Naturally, we are always happy to answer your questions or review the details of a particular strategy with you at any time. Charitable Remainder Unitrust (CRT) - This trust allows an individual or couple to make a gift, or a series of gifts, normally of appreciated assets, receive a charitable income tax deduction for the present value of the gift and to receive an income stream of a percentage that is based on the value of the trust assets. All types of CRTs have a minimum payout percentage of 5%. The trust is based on the life expectancy of the grantor or a term of years no greater than twenty. When the last income beneficiary dies or at the end of the term, the remainder passes to the charitable beneficiary. TCLAT - A testamentary charitable lead annuity trust is established at the death of the grantor. It pays a fixed annuity percentage to charity for a period of time then the remaining assets are transferred to the grantor’s beneficiaries. Most TCLATs are structured to create a “zero” transfer tax and are often used to eliminate any estate tax that would be due from the grantor’s estate. Charitable Life Estate - Client makes a gift to a charity of his residence and retains all rights and obligations of property ownership for his life. Client receives an immediate charitable income tax deduction for the present value of the gift to charity. At death, the house passes to the designated charity and is removed from the estate of the donor. Private Foundations - A private foundation is a specific type of charity that is established and operated usually by one family. The entity can be a trust or a corporation and the family may have 100% control of the board, make all of the investment decisions and all charitable grants. Private foundations must distribute 5% of its assets annually. There are also strict guidelines as to what type of investments may be owned and there are special limitations as to the amount of charitable income tax deductions are available for contributions. Page 81
  • 83. Family Charity Plan - Client establishes a family limited partnership that is designed to minimize the typical discounting that is normally associated with partnership planning. Client funds the partnership and then donates the limited partnership interests to designated charities. Client receives a significant income tax deduction and maintains investment control over partnership assets. Often client has a right to borrow from the partnership. Also, client generally makes an annual distribution to the charities from the partnership, normally 1% of assets. Supporting Organizations (SOs) - SOs are similar to private foundations but are actually public charities that can be established by private families. Because they are technically public charities, the higher charitable income tax deduction rules for public charities apply. Unlike private foundations, however, SOs require that a private family may not have absolute control of the board. That is, if the board is to have 5 members, the family can only have a maximum of 2 of those members. SOs are not required to pay excise taxes, nor are they required to distribute 5% of their assets annually. Instead, they must distribute 85% of their income. Bargain Sales - A bargain sale occurs when a donor transfers property to a charity for less than the full fair market value of the property or when the charity pays some portion of the value for property it receives. The donor only receives a tax deduction for the contributed portion of the property. Charitable Remainder Annuity Trust (CRAT) - This trust allows an individual or couple to make a single gift, normally of appreciated assets, receive a charitable income tax deduction for the present value of the gift and to receive an income stream of a fixed percentage of the original value of the contribution of trust assets. The trust is based on the life expectancy of the grantor or a term of years no greater than twenty. When the last income beneficiary dies or at the end of the term, the remainder passes to the charitable beneficiary. Gift Annuity - A gift annuity is a form of a bargain sale. A donor transfers property to a charity in exchange for a fixed income stream that will last for the life expectancy of the donor. A charitable income tax deduction for the present value of the gifted property is allowed. The charity is liable and responsible for the payment of the annuity income stream. Net Income with Makeup Unitrust (NIMCRUT) - This is a special type of charitable remainder unitrust (see above) wherein the trust distributes the “net income” that the trust assets earn within the trust. If the trust does not earn enough income to pay the stated income percentage payout, the trust creates an “IOU” account that it can pay at a later date when the assets earn more income. These trusts are often used when a donor has other income currently but would like income later such as during their retirement. Trust assets can be managed to produce income or not. Page 82
  • 84. Flip Charitable Remainder Unitrust (Flip CRT) - This type of CRT operates like a NIMCRUT when it is originally established, paying out only the income it earns at a set percentage. At some triggering event in the future, the FLIP CRT changes character and operates like a standard CRT (SCRUT) whereby it pays out a fixed percentage of its annual valuation. This type of CRT is often used when a gift that produces little current income (such as land) is transferred before it is sold. Upon sale, the proceeds are reinvested and the CRT begins paying its regular percentage. Charitable Lead Unitrust (CLUT) - This trust operates very much like the CLAT. However, while the percentage payout remains fixed, the trust’s distribution amount varies depending on the value of the trusts assets which are computed annually. Because of this, the CLUT cannot have a “zero” gift amount as there will always be some calculated remainder that passes to the heirs. CLUTs are often used for gifts to grandchildren or other “skip generations” because the generation skipping tax amount can be calculated when the trust is first established. Charitable Lead Annuity Trust (CLAT) - This trust distributes income to charity over the life of the donor or for a period of years. At the end of the trust term, the trust assets are either distributed back to the grantor or to heirs. These trusts are used to either transfer assets to heirs with little or no gift tax or to create a different way to make gifts if the grantor has already used significant charitable income tax deductions. CLATs have no minimum payout percentage. Donor Advised Funds (DAF) - A DAF is a special account established at a Community Foundation. It allows a donor to make a gift of property without specifying the final charitable purpose for the gift. Donors often are allowed to maintain money management responsibility for the DAF and can also direct the Community Foundation as to where the charitable funds are ultimately distributed. The Community Foundation is not technically bound to direct the funds to the donor’s selection but as a practical matter most follow the donor’s wishes. DAFs have no annual minimum requirement for distribution and are usually inexpensive to establish. Limited Liability Company/Charitable Remainder Trust (LLC/CRT) - In this strategy a gift of appreciated property is made to an LLC. The LLC then gifts the property to a CRT in exchange for the income interest. The LLC is then sold to a Grantor Deemed Owned Trust (GDOT) in exchange for a note. Because of the fact that the LLC only owns the income stream due from the CRT, and the LLC has restrictions on marketability and liquidity, the “discount” available for the sale to the GDOT should be substantial. Family Limited Partnership (FLP) - FLPs are a form of business entity that can be utilized to facilitate the transfer of assets. Ownership interests are divided into General Partner (GP) and Limited Partner (LP) shares. GPs maintain control of the entity even though they may own a small percentage of the total FLP. LP interests have ownership but no control. Because the LPs have no control over their interests FLPs often receive significant valuation adjustments when valued by appraisers. This allows the LP units to be transferred or sold at less than their full monetary value. FLPs also enjoy strong creditor protection and are therefore effective for family asset protection purposes. Page 83
  • 85. Long Term Care Insurance (LTC) - This type of insurance is meant to protect families from the catastrophic costs of care due to a prolonged illness. Coverage is usually provided as a “per day” cost and many policies feature various riders that protect against inflation. Coverage applies not only for nursing home and rehabilitation facilities but for home health care costs as well. Policies can be structured so that they are paid for over a lifetime or for a period of years. Some policies refund the premiums that have been paid at the death of the insured. LTC is income tax deductible to C Corporations and owners of those corporations may “discriminate” as to which employees are covered. Walton Grantor Retained Annuity Trust (Walton GRAT) - In a typical GRAT assets are transferred to a trust and the grantor of the trust receives an income stream for a period of years. What is left in the trust at the end of its term is transferred to beneficiaries, normally the grantor’s heirs. The normal structure of a GRAT is meant to use “leverage” to reduce or eliminate the taxable gift to the heirs form the GRAT. This type of normal GRAT causes all of the GRAT assets to be included in the grantor’s estate if the grantor dies during the GRAT period. The Walton GRAT provides an exception to this rule, thereby allowing GRAT payments to continue after death and the GRAT assets not reverting to the grantor. Revocable Living Trust (RLT) - A foundational document of most estate plans, the RLT is a trust that is established by an individual for the purpose of holding and managing the assets of the individual. The trust is a non-entity for income tax purposes. That is, the grantor of the trust is still responsible to report and pay the income tax due on any trust assets. RLTs are also effective in the event of a disability or incompetence of the grantor, in that they name a successor trustee who can step in to the shoes of the grantor without a court proceeding. RLTs are often established in order for the grantor’s estate to avoid probate. Further, a properly drafted RLT can be utilized to take advantage of the estate exemption in order to minimize estate taxes. Preferred Limited Partnership (LP) - This type of LP creates two different classes of limited partner. LP units are allocated between “common” and “preferred” classes. The common interests are generally entitled to receive any of the growth associated with the underlying assets of the LP. The preferred receive a stated percentage income return, e.g. 5%. Because of the possible disparity of return between the two types of units often have different values when appraised. This allows the General Partner of the LP to make different decisions as to the ultimate disposition of the two types of interests. This type of LP can provide substantial planning leverage for the appropriate estate. Life Insurance - While life insurance has been available for a very long time it is often dismissed. However, properly structured life insurance can add an element of safety and certainty to most estate plans. Life insurance death benefits are generally income tax free and policies that are properly owned outside of the estate can also be estate tax free. Many policies have guarantees that will keep the policy in force as long as premiums are paid in a timely fashion, regardless of interest rate or company mortality fluctuations. Page 84
  • 86. Rent to Own - This strategy couples a short term Qualified Personal Residence Trust (QPRT) with an Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust (ILIT). The ILIT is a beneficiary of the QPRT and at the termination of the QPRT term receives premium payments in the form of rental income. This allows the client to pay large insurance premiums without annual gifting, Crummey notices or income tax consequences. Life Settlements - This strategy involves the sale of a life insurance policy to an independent third party. There are many reasons to consider this type of transaction. The client may no longer need the insurance; the policy may be in danger of lapsing while the client is unwilling or unable to make the necessary premium payments; or there may be newer, more appropriate and cost effective insurance needed for the clients’ current circumstances. 529 Plans - 529 Plans represent a special section of the tax code which has been enacted to encourage the funding of post high school education. Each state has its own plan but individuals may choose the plan of any state they wish to use. 529 plans allow an individual to establish an investment account for themselves or for another person (normally children or grandchildren). Investment returns grow on a tax free basis and, if utilized for post high school educational purposes, remain tax free. While the funds are generally out of the estate of the grantor of the plan, the grantor may take them back at any time. While they will have to pay income tax as well as a 10% penalty on the earnings, it is often reassuring to have the knowledge that the funds are retrievable in the event of an economic emergency. The law further allows the grantor to make five years of gifts to the 529 plan in one year. That is, $60,000 can be deposited currently in a plan for the benefit of another, and then the grantor must wait until the sixth year to make any additional deposits. Family Limited Liability Company (FLLC) - Much like the FLP, a FLLC is a type of business entity that provides for the centralized pooling and management of family assets. Owners of FLLC units are considered “members” and there is usually a single “managing member”. FLLCs are a relatively new for of entity and there is less case law regarding their uses and nuances when compared to FLPs. However, many jurisdictions have passed favorable FLLC statutes and therefore the FLLC should be carefully considered in the proper jurisdiction. Crummey Powers - Most traditional life insurance trusts contain what are known as “Crummey Powers” which grant the beneficiaries of the trust the right to withdraw money that has been contributed to the trust (normally to pay insurance premiums), for a period of time. This allows the contribution to be a gift of a “present interest” and therefore qualify for the application of the annual exclusion. The name “Crummey” power derives from the court case that originally challenged and won on this principle. Jurisdictional Trusts - These trusts are normally established because of the favorable laws of a specific jurisdiction. These could be any type of trust, revocable or irrevocable, grantor or non-grantor. What’s important is that the specific legal foundation of the jurisdiction is favorable for the application sought. These could be state specific, i. e. Delaware for asset protection or Dynasty provision, or could even be international such as Cook Islands or Nevis for asset protection. Page 85
  • 87. Succession Planning - This is the process by which the owner of a closely held business determines who will take over the business and how and when the transition will take place. While not necessarily a codified estate planning “technique” a business without an organized succession plan will be more likely to fail and have to be sold or liquidated. The economic result to the family may be different than planned for or anticipated. Grantor Retained Annuity Trust (GRAT) - The GRAT transaction entails the transfer of assets to a trust whereby the grantor retains an income from the trust for a period of years and the remainder transfers to beneficiaries at the end of the trust term. The “remainder” is calculated using IRS tables and is considered a gift to the remainder beneficiaries. Therefore, many GRATs are structured to produce a “zero” gift and hope to take advantage of the possible arbitrage of the return of the assets in the GRAT compared to the IRS rates utilized to calculate the trust remainder. The disadvantage of the regular GRAT transaction is that if the grantor dies during the trust period, all of the assets in the GRAT are included back in the grantors estate. Sale for Installment Note - This transaction is normally coupled with other techniques to improve the results. Often a family will use an FLP or FLLP and sell interests that have been appraised at a reduced value because of lack of liquidity and marketability. The buyer is often a trust for the beneficiaries, which purchases the discounted assets for the installment note. While the note is in the estate of the seller, it is usually of less value than the assets that have been sold. The note can be structured to be paid as “interest only” or it may be amortized. Gifting - A simple way to transfer assets to beneficiaries. An individual may currently gift $11,000 of property to any other individual, annually ($12,000 beginning in 2006). Further, every individual can currently give away up to $1 million of assets during their lifetime without incurring gift taxes. Making gifts of property that is discounted in some way can be advantageous in transferring more than the statutory amount. Annuity Withdrawal - Often families ignore the funds that clients have in commercial annuities. Since funds are accumulating on a tax-deferred basis, this is often a logical approach. However, since annuities remain in the estate of the owner and are therefore subject to estate tax and income in respect of a decedent tax, it is often advisable to begin a systematic program of annuity withdrawal. Frequently the after-tax proceeds of the withdrawal can be utilized to subsidize lifestyle or to purchase life insurance to replace the dollars that would be lost to the double taxation of the annuity. Dynasty Trust - This type of trust allows assets that are contributed to the trust to remain in the trust for multiple generations. Because of this provision, the trust assets will pass outside of the estate tax system and will also be protected from the claims of a trust beneficiary’s creditors. This type of irrevocable trust must be established in a jurisdiction that allows multi-generational trusts. Page 86
  • 88. Premium Finance - When purchasing life insurance, many families face the possibility of making taxable gifts because the amount of the premium exceeds the amount of annual gifting available to the insured. Using the option of premium financing may alleviate this problem. Funds are provided by a third party lender who pays the premium. The insured usually pays only the interest on the borrowed funds while the principal of the loan accumulates and is often repaid from the insurance proceeds at the insured’s death. While complicated, premium financing can be an interesting solution for funding large policies. Buy-Sell Agreements - This type of contract is normally associated with the owners of a closely business to allow for the disability, abandonment of the business, or untimely death of any of the owners. The agreements describe the provisions by which an owner’s share of the business will be redeemed. Buy-sells can be funded with disability and life insurance or they may be unfunded and, therefore, rely on the cash flow of the business to fund the buy out. Providing liquidity for the estate of the business owner is often the reason for the formation and execution of a buy-sell. Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust (ILIT) - In many estate plans, it is best to own life insurance outside of the taxable estate. The ILIT is the most common and flexible form of trust to accomplish this function. The ILIT will be the owner and beneficiary of one or more life insurance policies and will obligated to pay the premiums, collect the proceeds at death and distribute the funds to beneficiaries per the provisions of the trust. This is a good way to engage professional management in the management and oversight of the trust funds. ILITs may be established as Dynasty Trusts, if so desired. Asset Protection - This is a broad category of planning which may involve one or more different strategies. Each of the techniques seeks to provide insulate assets from the attack of creditors. Various trusts, FLPs, FLLCs and other entities may be considered for asset protection. Further, there are choices of jurisdiction both domestic and foreign that may provide favorable environments for asset protection. Those in high risk profession or those with high risk assets generally fit the profile for implementing asset protection strategies. Intra Family Loans - A simple solution that allows family members to make loans at the current Applicable Federal Rate (AFR), this strategy allows for possible arbitrage gains when the AFR is low relative to long term investment results. Furthermore, it is often possible for discounts to apply to the value of the notes in the event of the death of the lender. Corporate Recapitalization - Many closely held companies only have one class of stock, known as common voting stock. When considering options for estate planning, the closely held company stock often represents a major portion of the estate. In order to facilitate transfer while retaining control of the company, it is possible to “recapitalize” the company by redeeming the outstanding shares and issuing new shares which are divided between “voting” and “non-voting” shares. The non-voting shares are then transferred by sale or gift and because of their non-voting status appraisals often reflect a greatly reduced value for these shares. Recapitalizations are available to S corporations as well as C corporations. Page 87
  • 89. Self Canceling Installment Note (SCIN) - Like other installment notes, the SCIN originates when assets are sold. As the name implies the SCIN obligation is cancelled when the obligation is fully paid or at the death of the seller. Because of the self-canceling feature of the SCIN, the seller receives a “premium” amount that is higher than a normal installment obligation. The premium is reflected in one of two ways; either more principal is added to the balance or a higher (than current federal tables) interest rate is applied to the obligation. SCINs may be effective in circumstances where the seller is not expected to live to their IRS computed life expectancy. Grantor Deemed Owned Trust (GDOT) - This type of trust has several unique properties that make it a very powerful estate planning tool. First, when assets are transferred to the trust either by gift or by sale, they are removed from the estate of the grantor. Second, the assets in the GDOT remain income taxable to the grantor of the trust. While this may not seem like a positive attribute, the grantor’s recognition and payment of the income taxes essentially allows the assets in the GDOT to grow free of income taxes outside of the estate. This can greatly increase the ultimate value of the assets transferred to the trust. Captive Planning - Business owners often have risks that are either under-insured or are too expensive to insure. Those who have excess taxable income may choose to establish their own insurance entity, know as a “Captive.” These are most done in international jurisdictions since the tax laws favor this type of arrangement. These structures are very complex and require specialized planning but can also provide very favorable income and estate tax benefits. Qualified Personal Residence Trust (QPRT) - This technique involves transferring a residence by gift to a trust for a period of years. Normally, a gift tax return is filed for the year that the QPRT is funded. At the end of the trust period, the residence becomes the property of the beneficiaries of the trust. Because the gift is made currently and vests in the beneficiary at a later date, there is a discount on the value of the transfer which is calculated utilizing IRS tables. One risk of the QPRT is if the transferor dies during the QPRT term, the house reverts to the estate of the transferor. After the QPRT terminates, the transferor should pay rent to the transferees as in any other commercial transaction. Leveraged Roth Conversions - Under certain circumstances it is possible to convert a traditional IRA account to a Roth IRA. This may be an effective strategy, though it requires the payment of income taxes on the converted amount. Use of borrowed funds to pay taxes can make this a very strong strategy. Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOP) - Closely held businesses often have no clear exit strategy. An ESOP can provide a ready market since the ESOP effectively sells a portion of the company stock to a qualified plan which must include the employees of the company. The owner may receive property which will allow a diversification of his assets that have been concentrated in their own company. ESOPs take many forms and are often complex transactions. Page 88
  • 90. 412(i) - This type of defined benefit pension plan is structured to allow the investments in the plan to be either life insurance and/or commercial annuities. Normally these products are designed to produce a low guaranteed rate of return which causes the annual contribution and, therefore, the income tax deduction to the participants in the plan, to be relatively high. 412(i) may be appropriate for an older business owner who has few employees. IRA Maximizer - This strategy is for those individuals who have significant balance in their IRA (or other qualified plan) and who do not need the funds to live on. Normally, the IRA invests all or some of its assets in a newly formed family limited partnership (flp) and the flp invests all or some of its assets in a restricted management account (rma). The result of the transaction is that there will be a reduction in appraised value of the account because of the illiquid nature of the rma and the flp. By structuring the transaction properly, the IRA owner may reduce income taxes on required minimum distributions and estate taxes because of the reduction in apprised value. Limited Partnership Owned Life Insurance - An alternative to owning life insurance in an irrevocable life insurance trust (ILIT), families often use a Limited Partnership. This is normally done as one step in a transaction whereby the limited partnership units will be sold or otherwise transferred out of the estate of the insured. Further, there are usually other assets contributed to the partnership that will fund the insurance premiums. Done properly, the life insurance death benefit can remain outside of the estate of the insured while some degree of control through the control granted by retaining the General Partner interest. Family Bank - a combination of strategies that may include an LLC and/or a multi-generational irrevocable trust. The purpose of the family bank is to create an entity that will allow several generations of family members to have access to wealth for various purposes but also with a great degree of monitoring and supervision. A family bank may lend money to an heir to purchase a home or to start a business but will first assess the appropriateness of the transaction against a set of guidelines that have been drafted into the formation documents.

  • 91. GRANTOR DEEMED OWNER TRUSTS BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN Overview of Advantages. The sale to defective trust technique is an estate freezing technique, to transfer future appreciation above a very low stated interest rate. Furthermore, to the extent that the note is paid during the grantors lifetime, the grantor will not have any recognition of income (as would ordinarily be the case with an installment sale to family members.) In several respects, the sale to a defective trust is a preferable technique as compared to the GRAT (see Section VII below). However, the grantor trust must be 'seeded' with some significant equity before the sale should occur. II. Description. A. Step 1. Create and 'Seed" Grantor Trust. The individual should create a trust that is treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes (meaning that the grantor is the owner of the trust for income tax purposes). The trust will be structured as a grantor trust for income tax purposes, but will be structured so that the grantor is not deemed to own the trust for estate tax purposes. This type of trust (which is treated as owned by the grantor for income but not estate tax purposes) is sometimes called a 'defective trust'. The grantor trust should be 'seeded' with meaningful assets prior to a sale. (For example, the trust should hold approximately 10% in value of the eventual trust assets after a purchase occurs in step 2.) The seed money can be accomplished either through gifts to the trust, or through transfer's to the trust from other vehicles, such as a GRAT. B. Step 2. Sale for Installment Note. The individual will sell property to the grantor trust in return for an installment note for the full value of the property (taking into account appropriate valuation discounts). The note is often structured to provide interest only annual payments with a balloon payment at the end of the note term. The interest is typically structured to be equal to the §7872 rate (which is even lower than the §7520 rate which is used for structuring GRATS). Page 90
  • 92. C. Step 3. Operation During Term of Note. Hopefully the trust will have sufficient cash to make the interest payments on the note. If not, the trust could distribute in-kind assets of the trust in satisfaction of the interest payments. Payment of the interest, whether in cash or with appreciated property, should not generate any gain to the trust or to the grantor, because the grantor is deemed to be the owner of the trust for income tax purposes in any event. Because the trust is a grantor trust, the grantor will owe income taxes with respect to income earned by the trust. To the extent that the entity owned by the trust is making distributions to assist the owners in making income tax payments, the cash distributions to the trust could be used by the trust to make note payments to the grantor/seller, so that the grantor/seller will have sufficient cash to make the income tax payments. D. Step 4. Pay Note During Seller's Lifetime. Plan to repay the note entirely during the seller's lifetime. Income tax effects may result if the note has not been paid fully by the time of the seller's death. See Section V.B. below. Ill. Estate Tax Effects. A. Note Includible In Estate. The installment note (including any accumulated interest) will be included in the grantor/seller's estate. B. Assets Sold To Trust Excluded From Estate. The asset that was sold to the trust will not be includible in the grantor's estate, regardless how long the grantor/seller survives. C. Grantor's Payment Of Income Taxes. The grantor's payment of income taxes on income of the grantor trust further decreases the grantor's estate that remains at the grantor's death for estate tax purposes. IV. Gift Tax Effects. A. The grantor must "seed" the trust with approximately 1 0% of the overall value to be transferred to the trust by a combination of gift and sale. This could be accomplished with an outright gift when the grantor trust is created. Alternatively, the grantor trust could receive the remaining amount in a GRAT at the termination of a GRAT to provide seeding for a further installment sale. B. No Gift From Sale. The sale to the trust will not be treated as a gift (assuming the values are correct, and assuming that there is sufficient equity in the trust to support valuing the note at its full face value.) There is no clear authority for using a valuation adjustment clause as exists under the regulations for GRATS. Page 91
  • 93. V. Income Tax Effects. A. Initial Sale. The initial sale to the trust does not cause immediate gain recognition, because the grantor is treated as the owner of the trust for income tax purposes. Regulation §1.1001-2(c)Ex.5; Rev. Rul. 86-13,1985-1 C.B. 184. B. Seller Dies Before Note Paid In Full. If the seller dies before the note is paid off, the IRS may argue that gain recognition is triggered at the client's death. The better view would seem to be that gain recognition is deferred under Section 453 until the obligation is satisfied after the seller's death. The recipient of installment payments would treat the payments as income in respect of decedent. Presumably, the trustee would increase the trust's basis in a portion of the business interest to reflect any gain actually recognized. VI. Generation-Skipping Transfer Tax Effects. Once the trust has been seeded, and GST exception has been allocated to cover that gift, no further GST exemption need be allocated to the trust with respect to the sale (assuming that it is for full value). VII. Advantages of Sale to Defective Trust Technique. A. No Survival Requirement. The estate freeze is completed without the requirement for survival for a designated period. B. Low Interest Rate. The interest rate on the note can probably be based on the § 7872 rate, which is significantly lower than the §7520 rate which must be used for structuring the annuity payments from GRATS. For example, in a month in which the §7520 rate was 5.6%, the short term §7872 rate was 4.62%.) C. GST Exempt. The sale can be made to a GST exempt trust, or a trust for grandchildren, so that all future appreciation following the sale will be in an exempt trust with no need for further GST exemption allocation. D. lnterst Only-Balloon Note. The installment note can be structured as an interest only-balloon note. With a GRAT, the annuity payments cannot increase more than 120% in any year, requiring that substantial annuity payments be paid in each year. E. Gift Amount May Approximate GRAT Gift For Older Individuals. For older individuals and longer term GRATS, the gift amount with a GRAT may approximate the 10% seed gift amount that would be needed with a sale to a defective trust. Page 92
  • 94. VIII. Risks. A. Treatment Of Note As Retained Equity Interest. Under extreme circumstances, it is possible that the IRS may take the position is treated as a retained equity interest in the trust rather than as a mere note from the trust. If so, this would raise potential questions of whether some of the trust assets should be included in the grantors estate under §2036 and 2702. It would seem that §2036 (which generally causes estate inclusion where the grantor has made a qift of an asset and retained the right to the income from that asset) should not apply to the extent that the grantor has sold (rather than gifted) the asset for full market value. See Letter Rulings 9436006 (stock contributed to grantor trust and other stock sold to trust for 25 year note; ruling holds §2702 does not apply); 9251004 (transfer of $5.0 million of stock to trust in return for $1.5 million note in 'sale/gift" transaction; ruling held that §2036 applies to retained right to payments under note, reasoning that note payments would constitute a major share, if not all, of the trust income, thus causing inclusion of trust property in estate); 9535026 (property sold to grantor trust for note, interest only at AFR rate for 20 years with a balloon payment at end of 20 years; held that the note is treated as debt and 'debt instrument is not a retained interest" for purposes of §2702). B. Potential Gain Recognition If Seller Dies Before Note Paid. There is potential gain recognition if the seller dies before all of the note payments are made. The IRS may argue that the gain is accelerated to the moment of death. It would seem more likely that the gain should not be recognized until payments are actually made on the note. Page 93
  • 95. CAPTIVE INSURANCE COMPANIES BEN AND AMANDA MORGAN CAPTIVE INSURANCE COMPANY DEFINED A captive is a bona fide insurance or reinsurance company. Its business is primarily supplied by and controlled by its owners, which are also normally the principal insureds. These owners/insureds participate in controlling the underwriting, claims and investment decisions of the insurance company. A number of different types of captives exist: • Single parent or group • Direct writing or fronted • Onshore or offshore • Agency captive • Risk retention group • Property/casualty only or life/benefits only (sometimes a mix of the two) • Writers of related business or some unrelated business • Primary or excess layer captive • Stock, mutual or reciprocal • Rent-a-captive, cell captive or sponsored captive. REASONS TO FORM A CAPTIVE INSURANCE COMPANY There are many reasons for starting or continuing to use a captive insurance company. These reasons tend to change in priority over time as the needs of the owners evolve. For example, during hard insurance market cycles, cost and capacity are key drivers for the use of a captive insurance company. Owners have started or continue to use a captive in order to: Reduce or stabilize cost: Typically, financing risk in a captive lowers overall costs and helps an organization to stabilize costs over the long-term because it is less susceptible to the vagaries of the insurance market. Cost savings include no profit load, elimination or reduction of broker commissions, and lower administrative costs. The owners share in all earnings through policyholder dividends or shareholder dividends. Another element of savings is the avoidance of costly insurance regulations, including payments into residual market pools and state premium taxes. Loss-cost savings might also be achievable where the captive serves to heighten risk management and cost awareness of senior management and operating management. These savings often exceed the cost of setting up and running the captive. Page 94
  • 96. Increase capacity and provide access to reinsurance: Captives by themselves only offer limited capacity. Captives can, however, access the capacity of the reinsurance markets and may be able to offer more limits of coverage than are available in the retail market. For example, multiple reinsurers may participate on a “slip” to offer millions of dollars of additional capacity that would not otherwise be available. Exert control: Captives were originally formed by insurance buyers who were tired of the cycles of the insurance market. They sought control of underwriting, rates and forms, as well as control of claim settlements and investments. Provide coverage: Captives can provide coverage to subsidiaries and members that would not otherwise be available. These include professional liability, punitive damages and business risks. Provide freedom of rate and form: A direct-writing captive can offer specially tailored wordings, which reinsurers may then follow. Establish better-than-average claim experience: The claim history of the captive’s insureds may be better than the overall class of business for a commercial insurer. If so, there is a good argument for retaining the risk in a captive rather than subsidizing the poor claims experience of competitors. Recapture investment income and accelerate/manage cash flow: Corporate treasurers like captives because the investment income that usually stays with commercial insurers may be wholly or partially recaptured in a captive. Take advantage of insurance accounting: Insurance companies get special tax treatment; they can accrue tax-deductible reserves for unpaid claims, whether known or estimated, and in the case of life insurance reserves, pay no tax on inside build-up of interest income. Furthermore, tax accounting for non-insurance companies with captives has been trending toward a similar treatment. Take advantage of tax deductibility: There are still tax advantages to be gained by using captives, especially those with multiple owners or insureds and those where the insureds and the shareholders are not the same. Deductibility of premiums and deferred taxation of insurance income are the two principal advantages. Tax issues can be a major driver, but they should not be the only reason for forming a captive. If they are, the captive might not stand up under scrutiny of tax authorities and regulations. Before considering a captive, a company should seek the advice of qualified legal counsel. Page 95

Offer perceived “safety” of formalized services: Captive books and records are audited; the reserve for claims is reviewed by actuaries; their investments are managed by investment professionals, and their accounts are maintained by independent managers. All of these services formalize the risk financing process. In many cases, formalized services are perceived by captive owners to be superior to unformalized in-house services, unallocated funding or no funding whatsoever. Take advantage of favorable regulations: Some captives are formed offshore to escape unnecessary insurance solvency regulations. Offshore captive insurance solvency regulation, like onshore captive solvency regulation, is designed to protect policyholders. Some believe captive regulation is weak. However, in well-regulated domiciles, such as Bermuda and Vermont, regulation is not lax and permissive. Provide administrative tool to fund retentions: Large organizations often create and maintain captive insurance companies to fund the difference between their large corporate deductible or retention and the relatively small deductible or retentions sought by the organization’s individual business units. By using a captive, the central organization can offer fixed-cost insurance to the business units above modest deductible while retaining the potential variability for losses within the overall organization’s risk-bearing capacity. Support risk management: The financial “stick” provided by the captive can be combined with a reward “carrot” to influence operational behavior. It also gives the risk manager more leverage in the organization than an annual cost allocation process does by itself. Increase access to innovative deals: A captive can help provide access to certain deals. Some of the more innovative arrangements include loss portfolio transfers and relief derived from transferring liabilities from one balance sheet to another. Warehouse data: A captive can provide the organization with a tool for collecting more and better data to support its cost management efforts. For example, a captive can serve as a central information repository for common disability cost management purposes as an organization finances select employee benefit risks (e.g., short-term or long-term disability) along with its workers compensation risks. Support strategic partners: Organizations can make coverage available for their various business partners, such as key suppliers or customers, independent contractors or attending physicians, when the traditional market’s price or terms are unfavorable. This approach might also provide profit and tax management advantages to the captive’s parent. Make a profit: Some captives are formed specifically to underwrite a customer’s risks or offer third-party insurance. Although they should not be called captives, they sometimes are. These entities can add value to an organization by tying customers to the owner and offering a stream of profits. Page 96
  • 98. EVALUATING IF A CAPTIVE MAKES SENSE FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION To examine whether a captive makes financial and/or strategic sense, a feasibility study should be conducted. If the results of the feasibility study are positive, a more formal business plan is then developed. Feasibility Study A feasibility study is a rigorous quantitative and qualitative assessment of the key aspects of a captive’s business in relation to current operations and costs. The quantitative features of a feasibility study include coverage offering, premiums, capital and surplus, claims projections, reserves, expenses, reinsurance, investment income and taxes. The qualitative features include ownership, governance, domicile, structure of the transaction and management. The feasibility study has three main components. The first is the design and structure of the coverage and the transactions for insurance and reinsurance. This component also includes discussion of the domicile and governance. The second component is a determination of the financial commitment required to support the design. Last is a comparison of the after tax cost between alternative programs and an evaluation of qualitative issues. The feasibility study should follow a methodical process and include the following major steps: 1. Collect and review relevant background information including descriptive background literature (e.g., marketing/service brochures, annual reports, audited financial statements), schedule of insurance (e.g., coverage lines, premiums, limits, retentions, insurers) and summary of historical annual risk financing costs. 2. Hold a strategy session with management and outside experts (e.g., actuarial, tax and regulatory) to review information, confirm objectives/goals and discuss probable financial implications of captive formation. The agenda for this meeting typically includes: a. Background and goals: background information on history, ownership, organizational structure and governance; overall mission and goals; financials; insurance program; risk financing issues b. Actuarial or data issues: actuarial techniques to be used, additional loss data or exposure information needed, insurance company expense loads, other issues and concerns c. Reinsurance marketplace overview: review of market, future expectations, reinsurance options, issues and concerns d.Tax and regulatory basics: federal income taxes, federal excise taxes, state premium and self-procurement taxes, state income taxes, domicile taxes and fees, regulatory issues, insurance company structure options e. Design: discussion of possible relevant options and targeting of best option f. Summary and next steps. 3. Develop projections of expected loss experience for relevant exposures. 4. Estimate operational expenses associated with the captive and determine the captive premium. Page 97

Describe qualitative factors that need to be considered relative to the formation of a captive, including: a. Comparison of domiciles and recommendation of location b. Discussion of structural parameters of a captive, including ownership, governance and control c. Review of ongoing management issues and required support services d. Discussion of whether a captive addresses other issues. 7. Prepare pro forma financial statements presenting the balance sheets and income statements for a captive over a five-year period on an “expected case” basis and under alternative scenarios. 8. Compare the proposed captive program versus the current program, based on financial and nonfinancial criteria. 9. Prepare and present findings. Once the decision to form a captive insurance company has been made, a company needs to develop a business plan, visit the selected domicile to meet with regulators and interview service providers, and prepare and submit an application. In addition, the company needs to secure reinsurance support and select service providers. Finally, the company needs to capitalize and fund the captive. The Business Plan A well thought out business plan is the foundation of a successful company, and a captive is no exception. The components of a captive’s business plan should be derived from its feasibility study, although the business plan may be organized and presented in a different format. The business plan will serve as a basis against which the owners/insureds can measure the performance of their insurance company annually. A modified version of the business plan will likely be provided to the regulators of the chosen domicile and will also serve as their benchmark for measuring the operations and performance of the company. A good business plan typically includes the following elements: • Overview and purpose • Program design and structure • Structure of governance, including board representation, ownership and corporate form • Coverage and limits offered, including underwriting policy • Financial resources — premiums, capital and investments • Reinsurance and risk management • Claims management • Safety and loss prevention programs • Management and service providers • Pro forma financial highlights, including “what if” alternative models showing the result of one or more bad loss years, unfavorable investment outcomes and any other likely downside scenario Page 98
