8. How do I replace a lost certificate(s) or correct
a spelling error on my certificate?
Most investors keep their
shares at a broker to avoid problems that may occur with
certificates being lost, destroyed or stolen, as well as delivery delays when
certificated shares are sold. Stock
certificates should be kept in a safe place. If you
have one or more certificates, for tax purposes, keep a record of each certificate,
including the cost or market value of the shares it covers at the
time acquired. If a certificate is lost, destroyed or stolen, notify
the Transfer Agent promptly so a "stop transfer" order can be
placed. The necessary forms and requirements will then be sent to you. A
certificate can be replaced only after the receipt of an affidavit
regarding the loss accompanied by an open penalty bond, for which a premium is paid by the shareholder.
If a certificate has the holder's name
incorrectly spelled, a correction requires the
certificate to be returned to the Transfer Agent with instructions for
correcting the error. Transferring shares to another name also
requires that the certificate be forwarded to the Transfer Agent
with the appropriate assignment forms completed and the signature of
the registered owner guaranteed in each case by a bank or registered securities dealer.
