What is the DTC number for Equity Stock Transfer?

7925

Can I move my shares to ROBINHOOD?

No. Robinhood does not participate in the DRS system. You will need to find another broker.

E*TRADE requires a 5-digit account number, but my statement has a 12-digit account number. What do I do?

This is an issue with E*TRADE. You will need to call your broker at E*TRADE and escalate the question about the length of the account to the broker's managers. The account for most transfer agents is between 4 to 16 digits long - and the DRS number in your statement is the correct account number with 12 digits. Please do not hang up with your broker's customer services line until they confirm that they will put your request through using the DRS account number assigned to you.

Is there a transfer fee to move my shares to my brokerage account (e.g., Schwab, Fidelity, etc.)?

Yes, there is a DRS fee to move your shares to your brokerage account. This fee covers the following processes and transactions:

Application of the 7% dividend and 25% discount to IPO price
Conversion of your Preferred Series B shares to restricted Common shares
Review of the legal opinion
Removal of restriction from restricted Common shares to make them free and clear Common shares

You can pay securely from our platform if you have not already. Please log in with your email address at my.equitystock.com and you’ll see the prompts to pay. You cannot call in and pay.

If you bought multiple times, you do not need to pay the DRS fee every time. Even though your account may show multiple payments due, one payment should remove all the DRS Payment Requirements from your shares, and your broker will then be able to pull them from our system. Remember, your shares must be unrestricted in order for you to move them to your broker. Also, your broker must initiate the share movement. Equity Stock Transfer does not begin the share movement.

Can I keep my shares at Equity Stock Transfer if I do not want to move them to a brokerage? What is the cost of keep my shares at Equity Stock Transfer?

Yes. You can maintain your shares on our books and records, and you can log in at any time to see your statement. As long as your DRS fee is paid, you can move your shares whenever you like. There is no cost to keeping your shares with us.

When can I sell my shares?

Your shares can be transferred to a brokerage account and then sold at any time.
