Zulual- perEtrade for your review.


How do I request paper stock certificates or electronically register shares directly with the transfer agent?

Effective January 1, 2009, E*TRADE and other broker-dealers will no longer be able to fulfill paper certificate requests due to an SEC regulation change. Instead E*TRADE will default paper certificate requests to electronic registration directly with the transfer agent using the Direct Registration System (DRS) built by the Depositor Trust Clearing Corporation (DTCC) and the industry Transfer Agents.

Exchange Listed securities are now DRS eligible. All paper certificate requests will be electronically transferred to the transfer agent via the Direct Registration System (DRS) in place of requesting a paper certificate.
The majority of Non Exchange Listed securities are also DRS eligible. Paper certificate requests will also be electronically transferred to the transfer agent via the Direct Registration System (DRS) in place of requesting a paper certificate. In the event the security is NOT DRS Eligible, a paper certificate will be mailed to the customer for a fee of $75.00 for domestic companies and $250.00 for international companies.
