Early distribution, exception applies

[NewtDJ]

I retired at age 49 with a  special NJ retirement.

the number two in the box 7 of my 1099R and then it asks for what the exception is what is the exception that I can use?

[Opus 17]

I do not believe that qualifies for an exception from the federal penalty for early withdrawal.
