If you sell AWYB shares after the name/ symbol has changed you will be selling short until your broker has completed the cert exchange.

Possibly, but until your broker can verify the certs in hand he WONT allow you to if on the up and up. Other houses....well they just don't care.

No, it is really a technicallity. If you sell the shares before your broker has the new certs you are theoretcially short until the broker delivers you the shares. If somethng were NOT to go through with the exchange, you could end up short.
