1. If the securities are held by your broker, instruct your broker to transfer them to:
Mesirow Financial Corp.
DTC #0727
ACCT #: 81719906
Please notify ACCION USA at (646) 833-4522 of this transaction so we may monitor the transfer. Once the funds are in our account, we will provide you with a receipt for tax purposes.
2. If the securities are in your name, sign the back of the certificate in the name(s) as they appear on the front. Please place the name of ACCION USA's transfer agent, "Mesirow Financial Corporation," as the appointed "Attorney." Then draft a brief letter authorizing ACCION USA as the recipient of the transferred security.
