RolloverSystems Expands IRA Choices With Addition Of Schwab To Network

Focus On Individual Investors, 'Tremendous Range Of Investments' A Boon For Job Changers Seeking To Roll Over Retirement Savings

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (September 22, 2004) -- RolloverSystems, Inc., the leader in technology-based 401(k) rollover solutions, announced today that Charles Schwab & Co. Inc. will begin offering Individual Retirement Account (IRA) rollover products and services through the RolloverSystems Network.

Available free online at www.rollovermarket.com, RolloverSystems' rollover tool allows workers who are changing jobs to easily compare multiple Rollover IRA offers from competing top-tier financial institutions, select the offer that best meets their investment needs, and quickly complete the transfer of their retirement savings from their former employer's 401(k) plan to their new IRA.

Schwab joins a growing roster of financial institutions offering Rollover IRA products and services as members of the RolloverSystems Network, including Fidelity Investments, J.P. Morgan Chase, TD Waterhouse, and Harrisdirect.

"The addition of Charles Schwab & Co. to the RolloverSystems Network, with its tremendous range of investments, approximately 285 branches nationwide and award-winning online customer service is major news for any job changer who has savings in a 401(k) plan and wants to stay on track to a financially secure retirement," said RolloverSystems chief executive officer Reginald Bowser. "Nowhere else can a 401(k) plan participant instantly compare and complete a Rollover IRA from a top-tier financial institution like Schwab."

Using RolloverSystems' unique technology, a 401(k) plan participant can choose a Rollover IRA offer and complete the paperwork needed to transfer the funds to the new IRA in as little as 15 minutes - dramatically simpler and faster than the traditional rollover process, which can take up to eight weeks to complete.

"Many job changers are put off by the traditional rollover process, which is cumbersome and time-consuming," Bowser said. "Now people can access the world-class investment offerings of our participating financial institutions, make an intelligent and informed decision about their financial future, and regain a sense of control over their retirement planning."
