Individual Retirement
Accounts
Roth or Traditional IRA?
IRAs are personal savings plans designed to provide tax advantages for people who set aside money for retirement.
Lending Club has partnered with SDIRA Services, a subsidiary of Horizon Bank, to offer both Traditional and Roth Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). Traditional IRAs can help reduce your taxes in the year you make a contribution and enable your investment to grow tax-deferred until you begin taking withdrawals.
Traditional IRA--With a Traditional IRA, qualifying contributions and earnings on those contributions are tax-deferred until withdrawn. Early withdrawals can lead to substantial penalties. A Traditional IRA can also be funded for a non-wage earning spouse.
Traditional IRAs can help reduce your taxes in the year you make a contribution...
Example: Taxes on an Adjusted Gross Income of $100,000
Roth IRA--Contributions to Roth IRAs are not tax-deductible, but all earnings and subsequent qualified distributions are tax-free. Traditional IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs and SEPs can generally be converted to Roth IRAs by paying income taxes on the IRA distribution before rolling over to a Roth IRA.
Traditional and Roth IRAs-- For 2012-2013, those under age 50 may contribute up to $5,500 annually (or 100% of compensation, whichever is less). Individuals age 50+ may contribute up to $6,500.1
Note: Assumes a blended federal and state tax rate of 28%.
With a Roth IRA... all earnings and subsequent qualified distributions are tax-free...

How can I fund my IRA account?
There are two basic ways you can fund an IRA account with Lending Club. If you currently have retirement savings in either a 401(k) or IRA, you may be able to allocate funds from your current account to a Lending Club account. Alternatively, you could fund a self-directed IRA account with Lending Club directly with an eligible annual contribution.
If you currently have a 401(k) or IRA with another financial institution:
401(k) Rollovers?if you have a retirement plan with a previous employer, you can roll over those funds to a new or existing Lending Club IRA. Our preferred IRA custodian - SDIRA - offers a fast and easy rollover service.
IRA Transfers?you can transfer funds from another IRA to fund your investment through Lending Club.2
If you do not currently have a 401(k) or IRA with another financial institution: Annual Contribution?you can contribute up to $5,500 per tax year (or $6,500 if you are age 50 or older) to an IRA.3

Potential Benefits of a Self-Directed IRA
Through our partnership with SDIRA Services, Lending Club offers a flexible type of retirement account: a self-directed IRA.1 Standard or non-self-directed retirement accounts often limit the types of assets the account can hold. For example, standard IRAs offered by financial institutions that also offer mutual funds often prohibit purchases of mutual funds offered by other financial institutions. In addition, standard IRAs often limit investments to publicly offered assets; asset classes such as real estate or private placements are usually prohibited.
With a self-directed IRA... you have the freedom to invest in a variety of asset classes.
With a self-directed IRA through Lending Club, you have the freedom to invest in a variety of asset classes. For example, funds in a Lending Club self-directed IRA can be used to invest in stocks, bonds, CDs, mutual funds, ETFs, precious metals, real estate and even private offerings.2

Costs & Fees of a Lending Club IRA
Small Business and Self Employed Accounts1
Lending Club also supports two retirement options for individuals who are self-employed or who own a business with fewer than 100 employees.
SEP?Simplified Employee Pension
Plans allow employers to take a tax deduction when they contribute to the retirement accounts of their employees. SEP-IRAs can be set up for any size of business, including self-employed investors.
SIMPLE?A Savings Incentive
Match Plan for Employees allows employers and their employees to make pre-tax contributions (similar to a Traditional IRA) into an employee's retirement account. These are limited to companies with less than 100 employees.
Through our partnership with SDIRA Services, Lending Club offers a No-Fee IRA2; not all financial institutions offer a no cost solution. Depending on the type of account, you could pay significant administrative fees to have an IRA initially set up. In addition, some financial institutions charge an annual "Safekeeping Fee" of roughly $25 for each asset held in your IRA, which can reduce the returns your IRA is producing.
Through our partnership with SDIRA Services, Lending Club offers a No-Fee, self-directed IRA - which combines the best of both worlds
Fortunately, there are some No-Fee IRA alternatives - including those offered by Lending Club in partnership with SDIRA Services - that do not charge these fees.2 However, many of these No-Fee alternatives are Standard IRAs, which are limited in terms of the investments you can hold in your account. Through our partnership with SDIRA Services, Lending Club offers a No-Fee, self-directed IRA - which combines the best of both worlds.
