3. Holdings you want to move While we can split a position into fractional shares and move those shares, an account can’t hold a position of less than one full share. Any transferred position of less than one full share may be liquidated at the closing price on the day we process the transfer, commission-free. This may create a taxable event. If you’re moving assets from a brokerage account and you specify a dollar amount, the value of the holdings will be determined by the closing price as of the day preceding the day we process your request. If you’re moving assets from a Vanguard mutual fund account, the value of the holdings will be determined by the closing price on the day we process your request. Check one.
Move all of the holdings from the account number provided in Section 1. If you check this box, skip to Section 4. If you check this box, list the holdings below.
>
Move only the holdings listed below from the account number provided in Section 1. ove only the money market M settlement fund.
For fixed income securities, indicate the face value under “Number of shares.” If you need more space to list additional holdings, either photocopy this section or attach additional sheets as necessary. Each sheet must be signed and dated and include the account number.

Complete this section for holdings that are using specific identification (SpecID) as the cost basis method. All shares acquired prior to January 1, 2012, will be displayed as one lot. This lot will be reported to you as average cost since Vanguard only has average cost records for these shares. If you use SpecID, you’ll need to use your own records to report these “noncovered shares” to the IRS. If you need more space to list additional holdings, either copy this section or attach additional sheets as necessary. Each sheet must be signed and dated and include the account number.

4. Cost basis information If you’re moving assets from an individual, estate, minor, or guardian account because a current account owner is deceased, we’ll automatically designate the shares as inherited, using the date of death. The cost basis of the shares will be updated based on the fair market value on the date of death. If you’re moving assets from a joint or trust account because a current account owner is deceased, we won’t automatically designate the shares as inherited or adjust the cost basis of the shares based on the fair market value on the date of death if we can’t identify which securities have been transferred from the deceased owner. If you want to adjust the cost basis using an alternate estate valuation, also complete our Cost Basis Adjustment Form for Inherited Shares. We’ll apply the following default cost basis methods—unless you select a different method before the move: • For covered mutual fund shares (those acquired on or after January 1, 2012). Average cost method. • For all other covered securities (generally those acquired on or after January 1, 2011). First in, first out method. Important note about noncovered mutual fund shares (those acquired before January 1, 2012). We can only provide average cost information to you for noncovered shares. That’s because we won’t know which cost basis method the current owner might have used to report gains or losses to the IRS in the past or which tax lots remain in the account if the current owner sold some of the shares before 2012. Even if you indicate an acquisition date for any noncovered holdings, we can only move the basis using the average cost method. To set or change your preferred cost basis method for each holding prior to the move, log on to your account at vanguard.com and from the My Accounts dropdown, select Account maintenance. Then, under Account profile, select Cost basis method and follow the instructions. Or, if you prefer, you may complete and submit our Cost Basis Method Election Form (available at vanguard.com/serviceforms). If you haven’t had any sales or transfers while using average cost as your cost basis method, you may select a new method. This new method will apply to all covered shares. If you’ve had any sales or transfers while using average cost as your cost basis method, you may choose a new method. Any shares purchased after the change will apply the new method.
Cost basis information for gifted or inherited shares If you’re gifting shares, Vanguard is required to calculate the cost basis of the transferred securities according to the reporting rules for gifted shares. We’ll deem this transfer as a gift unless any of the following is true. Note: We won’t adjust the basis of securities for gift tax paid, if any.
Check any that apply. he transferring account and receiving account have an owner in common. If there is a T common owner, the transfer won’t be processed as a gift. ransfers from my account to this recipient (for example, to my spouse*) are ineligible for giftT related basis adjustments. T he transfer is from a joint account with a deceased owner. The decedent was married to the surviving joint owner at the time of death. T he transfer is from a joint account with a deceased owner. The decedent wasn’t married to the surviving joint owner at the time of death. T he transfer is from the account of a deceased owner or a deceased owner’s estate.

Cost Basis Adjustment Form for Inherited Shares
Questions? Call 888-237-9045.
Use this form to request an adjustment to the cost basis for Vanguard brokerage and mutual fund accounts—excluding money market funds and retirement accounts—that have been transferred or otherwise distributed to you from a decedent.
If you need other forms, go to vanguard.com/serviceforms.
We automatically adjust the cost basis on inherited shares from a decedent’s individual account (if the date of death is on or after January 1, 2011, for Brokerage securities or on or after January 1, 2012, for Vanguard mutual funds) to the fair market value as of the date of death. You only need to complete this form if one or more of the following are true: • The alternate valuation date has been elected (see Section 2). • The decedent passed in 2010. • The inherited shares are being transferred from any account other than an account registered solely in the decedent’s name. • The authorized estate representative wishes to provide the valuation reported to the IRS. • The date of death is prior to 2011 for brokerage securities or 2012 for Vanguard mutual funds (except money market funds and retirement accounts). Don’t use this form if the estate elected not to use 2011 step-up rules. Consult your tax advisor. For more information, see IRS Publication 4895, Basis of Inherited Property Held by Decedents Who Died in 2010, which is available at irs.gov. For guidance on the tax consequences of adjusting cost basis for inherited shares, consult a qualified tax or financial advisor. Print in capital letters and use black ink.

2. Your valuation date We’ll adjust the cost basis of the inherited shares to either the: Fair market value on the date of death or Fair market value on the alternate valuation date (AVD) if elected by the executor when completing the United States Estate (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return (IRS Form 706). The AVD is generally the earlier of the date shares were distributed from the estate after the date of death or six months after the date of death. If the AVD wasn’t elected, the fair market value on the date of death will be used. Important: Only one valuation date can be elected for all inherited securities--either the date of death or alternate valuation date.

We’ll adjust the cost basis of the inherited shares on our records to reflect the adjusted cost basis you provide, and we’ll report the cost basis information as may be required under the new federal cost basis reporting rules applicable to financial institutions. Because of the new rules, we won’t be able to honor cost basis adjustment requests valued as of the alternate valuation date without the schedule provided by the authorized estate representative. The authorized estate representative must sign in Section 3.
