NHGP SHARES ARE RESTRICTED

I CAN NOT FIND A SINGLE pr THAT STATES THESE SHARES ARE RESTRICTED.THAT REALLY STINKS. I GOT THIS REPLY FROM ETRADE.

Dear XX XxMxxxxx,

Thank you for your email in regards to the status of your shares of NHGP through the spin-off from PRRM. If you were a shareholder on record as of 9/30/204, you are entitled to a payment of 1 NHGP share for every 100 shares you held of PRRM. Unfortunately, we have not received the new restricted split shares from the transfer agent; therefore, we cannot post the shares to your account. Restricted shares are sent in certificate form and can oftentimes take 4 to 6 weeks to receive from the transfer agent.

Please note these shares will be restricted and will be listed by the CUSIP number for identification purposes; therefore, you will be unable to place a trade on these shares until the restriction is removed. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us. I hope this information assists you in regards to the spin-off. Thank you and have a great day!
