Medallion Signature Guarantee
All requirements for transfer of securities include the Medallion Signature Guarantee. The Medallion Signature Guarantee is an insurance backed, mechanically affixed medallion image. Through an arrangement between the Stock Transfer Association and the American Bankers Association, the Medallion Signature Guarantee Program was created. Members of the program obtain stamps with a seal bearing the words “Medallion Signature Program”, the name of the guarantor, and identification numbers. The impression has specially colored ink.Participating members are issued a tamper-proof machine and an exclusively numbered medallion plate. When presented with the stock, the guarantor affixes the medallion impression on each certificate. This procedure replaced the manual signature guarantee when the law became effective in 1992. The program has surety bond coverage. Someone in our Shareholder Relations Department can assist you in locating a member of the Medallion Guarantee Program.If you wish to see the Securities and Exchange Commissions rule on the Medallion Signature Guarantee requirement, please click on the link below.Rule 17Ad-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
