DRS Book-Entry shares are electronic shares held within your account outside of an offered Dividend Reinvestment or Direct Stock Purchase Plan. DRS Book-Entry shares are not represented in physical form as a stock certificate.
For your convenience, when you include your stock certificate(s) with any written, Broadridge will deposit the shares represented by the certificate(s) into DRS Book-Entry format, and the original certificate(s) will not be returned to you. This action will help facilitate future transactions by allowing your shares to be immediately available for sale, transfer, or exchange. Depositing certificates avoids the possibility of the certificates becoming lost or damaged with subsequent correspondence.
