This is such horseshit. I'm calling the DTCC later today.

Dear Client:
Thank you for your e-mail.


You are correct that the ex-dividend date was 01/12/2010. However, this does not apply to the cash payout. The ex-date only applies to the split that occurred. The date applicable to receive the cash distribution was 08/06/2009. Our Reorganization Department confirmed the details. The DTCC provides all brokerages of the terms of each reorganization. The DTCC provided us with the information that the record date for the cash payout was 08/06/2009. The DTCC is the government agency responsible for these types of transactions and we comply with the terms that the DTCC provides us. Again, I would recommend contacting the company's investor relations department if you need further clarification and to confirm the record date of 08/06/2009. The reorganization was applied to your account according to the DTCC terms that were provided to Scottrade.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance.

Sincerely,

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
National Service Center
