Just read the link I sent u. To obtain the dividend u must be "on record" by the 12th. To be on record it takes a few business days, that's why they created the term "ex dividend date" - it's the last date u can buy shares to be on record. So if u buy on the 10th, it will take few business days to be on company records. So u will be on record by the 12th and receive dividend. If u wait til the 11th, u won't be on record until the 13th, which is too late because they declared the record date 9/12. Just read the link I sent u, I know u want me to hand u the answer, (which I have) but please just read. All the info is there, I already read it before I sent it to u to make sure it was right.
