How should I send my certificates?
  Certificates can be sent by U.S. Mail, or some form of express service. If your certificate is lost in transit, you will have to have it replaced through the surety company at a 2% premium. You may wish to send the shares by insured mail if the cost to replace the shares would be considerable.

What is a medallion signature guarantee?
  A program developed by the Securities Transfer Association to meet the requirements of a rule set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission which broadened the number and type of financial institutions eligible to guarantee signatures. By medallion guaranteeing the stock to be sold, assigned and transferred, the guarantor is taking financial responsibility if the transfer is completed fraudulently.

Where can I get a medallion stamp?
  A medallion signature guarantee may be obtained from a bank, brokerage firm, credit union or savings and loan institution that is members of the medallion stamp program.

Is this the same as a notary stamp?
  A notary stamp does not provide protection for the investor, the issuer or the transfer agent against fraud. The notary stamp is not an acceptable form of signature guarantee.

What is transfer on death registration?
  Transfer on death (TOD) registration allows you to pass the securities you own directly to another person or entity (your "TOD beneficiary") upon your death without having to go through probate. By setting up your account or having your securities registered this way, the executor or administrator of your estate will not have to take any action to ensure that your securities transfer to whomever you have designated. However, TOD beneficiaries must take steps to re-register the securities in their names. This typically involves sending a copy of the death certificate and an application for re-registration to the transfer agent.
