Securities in Certificate Form

1. Send your certificate without any endorsement to:

California Polytechnic State University Foundation
c/o Trust and Endowment Department
Administration Building #15
San Luis Obispo, CA 93407

along with a letter indicating how you would like your gift to benefit Cal Poly.


2. In a separate envelope, send a blank, but signed, stock power and ownership disclaimer form with a copy of the letter that was mailed with your certificate to the Cal Poly Foundation. The certificate is negotiable only when joined with the stock power.

Notes

• Regular first-class mail provides for sufficient protection. However, you may send these items by certified mail if you wish. Stock powers and ownership disclaimer forms may be obtained at any bank or broker’s office. The gift becomes effective on the date you mail the certificate and the stock power/ownership disclaimer in the U.S. mail.
  
  
• You may hand deliver the certificate to the Cal Poly Foundation at its business address, listed above, where you can sign a stock power form and an ownership disclaimer form.
  
  
• If the certificates are in your name, it is not recommended to have them re-registered in the Cal Poly Foundation ’s name, as this may take four to eight weeks to achieve.
