I do as well. My broker, TD Ameritrade, offers to get it done for a fee, but the fee is somewhat open-ended. I suspect the company might be willing to remove the restricted legend, if contacted, but I have not tried that yet.

Thank you for your inquiry. TD Ameritrade can help with the removal of a Rule 144 restriction. The required paperwork is attached to this e-mail for your convenience. A copy is needed for each restricted security. Please note you will need at least $500 cash in the account to cover possible fees. There is a $50 processing charge from TD Ameritrade, there may be a fee from the transfer agent to issue unrestricted shares, and the attorney for the issuing companies may charge for the legal opinion. Please reply to this e-mail or call a Restricted Stock Specialist at 888-723-8504, Option 7 weekdays, excluding market holidays, between 9:00 AM and 5:30 PM Eastern time if you have other questions. Thank you for choosing TD Ameritrade.
