2. IPO Share Request Kit
Directed Shares Program —
“Friends and Family” IPO Shares
The Program
The Directed Share Program from XYZ Brokerage Services LLC gives you the opportunity to buy shares
of Newco Wireless stock at the IPO price. The exact price won’t be known until the evening before the
stock begins to trade publicly, but it is currently expected to be somewhere between $00.00 and $00.00.
Is This Program Right for Me?
Stock investing isn’t for everyone. Many factors could push the price of Newco Wireless stock up or down.
These factors could be related to the company, to one or more industries, or to the stock market in general.
The choice to invest is yours, although you may want to consult with an investment adviser, financial
planner, family members, or anyone else who is typically included in your financial decisions.
If You Want to Participate
To get started with the program, there are three things you need to do:
• Read the enclosed materials, including the preliminary prospectus, which tells you about Newco Wireless
stock and its risks.
• Decide how many shares you want to request. In deciding, you may want to consider several factors, includ-
ing your investment goals, how you plan to pay for your shares, and how much exposure you may want
to a single stock.
• Tell us how many shares you’re interested in buying, either by visiting the web site or by using
Form A, the Indication of Interest Form.
You can request as few as 100 shares, as many as XXX,XXX shares, or any amount in between that is
a multiple of 50. For example, if you want to request more than 100 shares, but less than 300, your pos-
sible choices would be 150, 200, or 250 shares.
When requesting shares, keep in mind that you might not be allocated the full number you ask for.
Depending on supply and demand, you might not be allocated any shares. At the same time, it’s
unwise to request more shares than you want, because you might receive — and have to pay for —
your full allocation.
Keep this package handy until the program is over and you have paid for your shares. You can use the
timeline on the following pages as a reminder of what you need to do and when.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a difference between the number of shares I request and the number I’m allocated?
There could be. You can choose how many shares to request, up to your maximum allowable number
(which has been determined by your employer). However, you can’t choose how many shares you actu-
ally will be allocated. Your actual allocation will depend on a number of factors, including how many
shares are made available to the entire program and how many shares other employees request.
Do I need to purchase all shares allocated to me?
From the time you submit your Indication of Interest until the time you confirm on the evening before
the trading day, you can choose how many shares you want to purchase: all, some, or none. Until you
confirm and the shares are placed in your account, you can opt out of the program at any time, with no
obligation or penalty. Once the shares are in your account, you are committed: you will be held respon-
sible for buying, at the IPO price, all shares in your account.
Why might the timing of the IPO change?
Many factors can influence the actual date of an IPO. One factor is the Securities and Exchange
Commission, which must declare a stock’s registration statement effective before any shares of that
stock can be publicly sold. Once this has occurred, the stock’s IPO price must be set. Unexpected
developments in the stock market can also affect the timing of an IPO. It may be disadvantageous to
launch a new stock offering when markets are unsettled or investor sentiment is negative.
What’s the best way for me to pay for my shares?
You can pay for your shares by check (including personal check), electronic fund transfer, or wire,
whichever is most convenient for you. However, if your payment doesn’t arrive by the payment dead-
line, you will lose your allocated shares. You will also lose any gains you would otherwise have made,
or you will have to pay for any losses. Note also that you cannot pay for your shares by selling them
first and then using that money to pay.
When can I sell my shares?
You can sell some or all of your shares at any time, beginning on the first public trading day. However,
you won’t receive any proceeds from selling shares until your payment for the shares has cleared—
typically seven business days. No matter when you sell shares, you must pay for them all within three
business days of the first public trading day. If you sell your shares, you’ll have to pay a brokerage
commission. You can find the commission schedule at www.XYZ.com.
How do I use my XYZ account?
We have opened a XYZ account in your name, using information provided by your employer, because
you need a brokerage account to participate in the program. Any shares you are allocated will be placed in
your new XYZ account automatically. Once you have paid for your shares, you may sell them or transfer
them to another brokerage account, and close your XYZ account, if you like. However, since your
XYZ account is a fully functional brokerage account, you may want to keep it, as it offers features such as
discounted commissions for buying and selling other stocks.
Other questions?
You can get answers from XYZ at the web site or the automated phone line.
Brokerage services for this program are provided by XYZ Brokerage Services LLC, Member NYSE and SIPC.
Follow the instructions on the web site or phone line
to confirm how many shares you are interested in pur-
chasing. Your shares will be allocated soon after the
confirmation period (typically within two hours). Once
shares are allocated, you will be responsible for paying
for any and all shares in your account.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a difference between the number of shares I request and the number I’m allocated?
There could be. You can choose how many shares to request, up to your maximum allowable number
(which has been determined by your employer). However, you can’t choose how many shares you actu-
ally will be allocated. Your actual allocation will depend on a number of factors, including how many
shares are made available to the entire program and how many shares other employees request.
Do I need to purchase all shares allocated to me?
From the time you submit your Indication of Interest until the time you confirm on the evening before
the trading day, you can choose how many shares you want to purchase: all, some, or none. Until you
confirm and the shares are placed in your account, you can opt out of the program at any time, with no
obligation or penalty. Once the shares are in your account, you are committed: you will be held respon-
sible for buying, at the IPO price, all shares in your account.
Why might the timing of the IPO change?
Many factors can influence the actual date of an IPO. One factor is the Securities and Exchange
Commission, which must declare a stock’s registration statement effective before any shares of that
stock can be publicly sold. Once this has occurred, the stock’s IPO price must be set. Unexpected
developments in the stock market can also affect the timing of an IPO. It may be disadvantageous to
launch a new stock offering when markets are unsettled or investor sentiment is negative.
What’s the best way for me to pay for my shares?
You can pay for your shares by check (including personal check), electronic fund transfer, or wire,
whichever is most convenient for you. However, if your payment doesn’t arrive by the payment dead-
line, you will lose your allocated shares. You will also lose any gains you would otherwise have made,
or you will have to pay for any losses. Note also that you cannot pay for your shares by selling them
first and then using that money to pay.
When can I sell my shares?
You can sell some or all of your shares at any time, beginning on the first public trading day. However,
you won’t receive any proceeds from selling shares until your payment for the shares has cleared—
typically seven business days. No matter when you sell shares, you must pay for them all within three
business days of the first public trading day. If you sell your shares, you’ll have to pay a brokerage
commission. You can find the commission schedule at www.XYZ.com.
How do I use my XYZ account?
We have opened a XYZ account in your name, using information provided by your employer, because
you need a brokerage account to participate in the program. Any shares you are allocated will be placed in
your new XYZ account automatically. Once you have paid for your shares, you may sell them or transfer
them to another brokerage account, and close your XYZ account, if you like. However, since your
XYZ account is a fully functional brokerage account, you may want to keep it, as it offers features such as
discounted commissions for buying and selling other stocks.
Other questions?
You can get answers from XYZ at the web site or the automated phone line.
Brokerage services for this program are provided by XYZ Brokerage Services LLC, Member NYSE and SIPC.

The Program
The Directed Share Program from XYZ Brokerage Services LLC gives you the opportunity to buy shares
of Newco Wireless stock at the IPO price. The exact price won’t be known until the evening before the
stock begins to trade publicly, but it is currently expected to be somewhere between $00.00 and $00.00.
Is This Program Right for Me?
Stock investing isn’t for everyone. Many factors could push the price of Newco Wireless stock up or down.
These factors could be related to the company, to one or more industries, or to the stock market in general.
The choice to invest is yours, although you may want to consult with an investment adviser, financial
planner, family members, or anyone else who is typically included in your financial decisions.
If You Want to Participate
To get started with the program, there are three things you need to do:
• Read the enclosed materials, including the preliminary prospectus, which tells you about Newco Wireless
stock and its risks.
• Decide how many shares you want to request. In deciding, you may want to consider several factors, includ-
ing your investment goals, how you plan to pay for your shares, and how much exposure you may want
to a single stock.
• Tell us how many shares you’re interested in buying, either by visiting the web site or by using
Form A, the Indication of Interest Form.
You can request as few as 100 shares, as many as XXX,XXX shares, or any amount in between that is
a multiple of 50. For example, if you want to request more than 100 shares, but less than 300, your pos-
sible choices would be 150, 200, or 250 shares.
When requesting shares, keep in mind that you might not be allocated the full number you ask for.
Depending on supply and demand, you might not be allocated any shares. At the same time, it’s
unwise to request more shares than you want, because you might receive — and have to pay for —
your full allocation.
Keep this package handy until the program is over and you have paid for your shares. You can use the
timeline on the following pages as a reminder of what you need to do and when.

The value of an investment in the Sub-Fund can go up and down.
When you sell your shares, they may be worth less than what you
paid for them. If your currency as an investor is different from
the subscription currency of the Sub-Fund, changes in currency
exchange rates could reduce any investment gains or increase any
investment losses.
The risk/reward rating above is an estimate; it is not guaranteed.
The rating is based on medium-term volatility (variations in the
Fund’s share price over a recent period, generally several years).
Going forward, the Sub-Fund’s actual volatility could be lower or
higher, and its rated risk/reward level may be changed.
The Sub-Fund’s risk level reflects the following factor:
• The Sub-Fund invests in stocks, which in general are riskier than
bonds or money market instruments.
The rating does not reflect the possible effects of unusual mar-
ket conditions or large unpredictable events, which could amplify
everyday risks and could trigger other risks, such as:
Counterparty risk The Sub-Fund could lose money if an entity
with which it does business becomes unwilling or unable to honor
its commitments to the Sub-Fund.
Derivatives risk Certain derivatives could increase Sub-Fund
volatility or expose the Sub-Fund to losses greater than the cost
of the derivative.
Liquidity risk Certain securities could become hard to value, or
to sell at a desired time and price.
Management risk Portfolio management techniques that have
worked well in normal market conditions could prove ineffective
or detrimental during unusual conditions.

Health Plan Name: Insurance Company 1
What This Plan Covers & What it Costs
Important Questions Answers Why This Matters:
What is the premium? $280 monthly
The premium is the amount paid for health insurance. This is only an estimate based on
information you’ve provided. After the insurer reviews your application, your actual pre-
mium may be higher or your application may be denied.
What is the overall
deductible?
$1,500
Doesn’t apply to office visits, pre-
ventive care, and generic drugs.
You must pay all the costs up to the deductible amount before this health insurance plan
begins to pay for covered services you use. Check your policy to see when the deductible

a longer list of expenses means you have less coverage.
Is there an overall annual
limit on what the insurer
pays?

limit, but see page 2 for specific lim-
its on covered services.
The chart starting on page 2 describes any limits on what the insurer will pay for specific
covered services, such as office visits.

network of providers?
Yes. See insurancecompany.com
for a list of participating doctors
and hospitals.
If you use an in-network doctor or other health care provider, this plan will pay some or all
of the costs of covered services. Plans use the term in-network, preferred, or participating
for providers in their network.
Do I need a referral to see
a specialist?
Yes. You need a referral to see a
specialist.
This plan will pay some or all of the costs to see a specialist for covered services but only if
you have the plan’s permission before you see the specialist.

    PROBLEM SOLVING 2. IPOShare Request Kit
  • 106.
    Directed Shares Program— “Friends and Family” IPO Shares
  • 109.
    The Program The DirectedShare Program from XYZ Brokerage Services LLC gives you the opportunity to buy shares of Newco Wireless stock at the IPO price. The exact price won’t be known until the evening before the stock begins to trade publicly, but it is currently expected to be somewhere between $00.00 and $00.00. Is This Program Right for Me? Stock investing isn’t for everyone. Many factors could push the price of Newco Wireless stock up or down. These factors could be related to the company, to one or more industries, or to the stock market in general. The choice to invest is yours, although you may want to consult with an investment adviser, financial planner, family members, or anyone else who is typically included in your financial decisions. If You Want to Participate To get started with the program, there are three things you need to do: • Read the enclosed materials, including the preliminary prospectus, which tells you about Newco Wireless stock and its risks. • Decide how many shares you want to request. In deciding, you may want to consider several factors, includ- ing your investment goals, how you plan to pay for your shares, and how much exposure you may want to a single stock. • Tell us how many shares you’re interested in buying, either by visiting the web site or by using Form A, the Indication of Interest Form. You can request as few as 100 shares, as many as XXX,XXX shares, or any amount in between that is a multiple of 50. For example, if you want to request more than 100 shares, but less than 300, your pos- sible choices would be 150, 200, or 250 shares. When requesting shares, keep in mind that you might not be allocated the full number you ask for. Depending on supply and demand, you might not be allocated any shares. At the same time, it’s unwise to request more shares than you want, because you might receive — and have to pay for — your full allocation. Keep this package handy until the program is over and you have paid for your shares. You can use the timeline on the following pages as a reminder of what you need to do and when.

    4.DSP-PMC-APP1 1.757806.100 XXX-XXX-XXX Frequently AskedQuestions Is there a difference between the number of shares I request and the number I’m allocated? There could be. You can choose how many shares to request, up to your maximum allowable number (which has been determined by your employer). However, you can’t choose how many shares you actu- ally will be allocated. Your actual allocation will depend on a number of factors, including how many shares are made available to the entire program and how many shares other employees request. Do I need to purchase all shares allocated to me? From the time you submit your Indication of Interest until the time you confirm on the evening before the trading day, you can choose how many shares you want to purchase: all, some, or none. Until you confirm and the shares are placed in your account, you can opt out of the program at any time, with no obligation or penalty. Once the shares are in your account, you are committed: you will be held respon- sible for buying, at the IPO price, all shares in your account. Why might the timing of the IPO change? Many factors can influence the actual date of an IPO. One factor is the Securities and Exchange Commission, which must declare a stock’s registration statement effective before any shares of that stock can be publicly sold. Once this has occurred, the stock’s IPO price must be set. Unexpected developments in the stock market can also affect the timing of an IPO. It may be disadvantageous to launch a new stock offering when markets are unsettled or investor sentiment is negative. What’s the best way for me to pay for my shares? You can pay for your shares by check (including personal check), electronic fund transfer, or wire, whichever is most convenient for you. However, if your payment doesn’t arrive by the payment dead- line, you will lose your allocated shares. You will also lose any gains you would otherwise have made, or you will have to pay for any losses. Note also that you cannot pay for your shares by selling them first and then using that money to pay. When can I sell my shares? You can sell some or all of your shares at any time, beginning on the first public trading day. However, you won’t receive any proceeds from selling shares until your payment for the shares has cleared— typically seven business days. No matter when you sell shares, you must pay for them all within three business days of the first public trading day. If you sell your shares, you’ll have to pay a brokerage commission. You can find the commission schedule at www.XYZ.com. How do I use my XYZ account? We have opened a XYZ account in your name, using information provided by your employer, because you need a brokerage account to participate in the program. Any shares you are allocated will be placed in your new XYZ account automatically. Once you have paid for your shares, you may sell them or transfer them to another brokerage account, and close your XYZ account, if you like. However, since your XYZ account is a fully functional brokerage account, you may want to keep it, as it offers features such as discounted commissions for buying and selling other stocks. Other questions? You can get answers from XYZ at the web site or the automated phone line. Brokerage services for this program are provided by XYZ Brokerage Services LLC, Member NYSE and SIPC.

    4.DSP-PMC-APP1 1.757806.100 XXX-XXX-XXX Frequently AskedQuestions Is there a difference between the number of shares I request and the number I’m allocated? There could be. You can choose how many shares to request, up to your maximum allowable number (which has been determined by your employer). However, you can’t choose how many shares you actu- ally will be allocated. Your actual allocation will depend on a number of factors, including how many shares are made available to the entire program and how many shares other employees request. Do I need to purchase all shares allocated to me? From the time you submit your Indication of Interest until the time you confirm on the evening before the trading day, you can choose how many shares you want to purchase: all, some, or none. Until you confirm and the shares are placed in your account, you can opt out of the program at any time, with no obligation or penalty. Once the shares are in your account, you are committed: you will be held respon- sible for buying, at the IPO price, all shares in your account. Why might the timing of the IPO change? Many factors can influence the actual date of an IPO. One factor is the Securities and Exchange Commission, which must declare a stock’s registration statement effective before any shares of that stock can be publicly sold. Once this has occurred, the stock’s IPO price must be set. Unexpected developments in the stock market can also affect the timing of an IPO. It may be disadvantageous to launch a new stock offering when markets are unsettled or investor sentiment is negative. What’s the best way for me to pay for my shares? You can pay for your shares by check (including personal check), electronic fund transfer, or wire, whichever is most convenient for you. However, if your payment doesn’t arrive by the payment dead- line, you will lose your allocated shares. You will also lose any gains you would otherwise have made, or you will have to pay for any losses. Note also that you cannot pay for your shares by selling them first and then using that money to pay. When can I sell my shares? You can sell some or all of your shares at any time, beginning on the first public trading day. However, you won’t receive any proceeds from selling shares until your payment for the shares has cleared— typically seven business days. No matter when you sell shares, you must pay for them all within three business days of the first public trading day. If you sell your shares, you’ll have to pay a brokerage commission. You can find the commission schedule at www.XYZ.com. How do I use my XYZ account? We have opened a XYZ account in your name, using information provided by your employer, because you need a brokerage account to participate in the program. Any shares you are allocated will be placed in your new XYZ account automatically. Once you have paid for your shares, you may sell them or transfer them to another brokerage account, and close your XYZ account, if you like. However, since your XYZ account is a fully functional brokerage account, you may want to keep it, as it offers features such as discounted commissions for buying and selling other stocks. Other questions? You can get answers from XYZ at the web site or the automated phone line. Brokerage services for this program are provided by XYZ Brokerage Services LLC, Member NYSE and SIPC. Follow the instructions on the web site or phone line to confirm how many shares you are interested in pur- chasing. Your shares will be allocated soon after the confirmation period (typically within two hours). Once shares are allocated, you will be responsible for paying for any and all shares in your account.

The Program The Directed Share Program from XYZ Brokerage Services LLC gives you the opportunity to buy shares of Newco Wireless stock at the IPO price. The exact price won’t be known until the evening before the stock begins to trade publicly, but it is currently expected to be somewhere between $00.00 and $00.00. Is This Program Right for Me? Stock investing isn’t for everyone. Many factors could push the price of Newco Wireless stock up or down. These factors could be related to the company, to one or more industries, or to the stock market in general. The choice to invest is yours, although you may want to consult with an investment adviser, financial planner, family members, or anyone else who is typically included in your financial decisions. If You Want to Participate To get started with the program, there are three things you need to do: • Read the enclosed materials, including the preliminary prospectus, which tells you about Newco Wireless stock and its risks. • Decide how many shares you want to request. In deciding, you may want to consider several factors, includ- ing your investment goals, how you plan to pay for your shares, and how much exposure you may want to a single stock. • Tell us how many shares you’re interested in buying, either by visiting the web site or by using Form A, the Indication of Interest Form. You can request as few as 100 shares, as many as XXX,XXX shares, or any amount in between that is a multiple of 50. For example, if you want to request more than 100 shares, but less than 300, your pos- sible choices would be 150, 200, or 250 shares. When requesting shares, keep in mind that you might not be allocated the full number you ask for. Depending on supply and demand, you might not be allocated any shares.

    4.DSP-PMC-APP1 1.757806.100 XXX-XXX-XXX Frequently AskedQuestions Is there a difference between the number of shares I request and the number I’m allocated? There could be. You can choose how many shares to request, up to your maximum allowable number (which has been determined by your employer). However, you can’t choose how many shares you actu- ally will be allocated. Your actual allocation will depend on a number of factors, including how many shares are made available to the entire program and how many shares other employees request. Do I need to purchase all shares allocated to me? From the time you submit your Indication of Interest until the time you confirm on the evening before the trading day, you can choose how many shares you want to purchase: all, some, or none. Until you confirm and the shares are placed in your account, you can opt out of the program at any time, with no obligation or penalty. Once the shares are in your account, you are committed: you will be held respon- sible for buying, at the IPO price, all shares in your account. Why might the timing of the IPO change? Many factors can influence the actual date of an IPO. One factor is the Securities and Exchange Commission, which must declare a stock’s registration statement effective before any shares of that stock can be publicly sold. Once this has occurred, the stock’s IPO price must be set. Unexpected developments in the stock market can also affect the timing of an IPO. It may be disadvantageous to launch a new stock offering when markets are unsettled or investor sentiment is negative. What’s the best way for me to pay for my shares? You can pay for your shares by check (including personal check), electronic fund transfer, or wire, whichever is most convenient for you. However, if your payment doesn’t arrive by the payment dead- line, you will lose your allocated shares. You will also lose any gains you would otherwise have made, or you will have to pay for any losses. Note also that you cannot pay for your shares by selling them first and then using that money to pay. When can I sell my shares? You can sell some or all of your shares at any time, beginning on the first public trading day. However, you won’t receive any proceeds from selling shares until your payment for the shares has cleared— typically seven business days. No matter when you sell shares, you must pay for them all within three business days of the first public trading day. If you sell your shares, you’ll have to pay a brokerage commission. You can find the commission schedule at www.XYZ.com. How do I use my XYZ account? We have opened a XYZ account in your name, using information provided by your employer, because you need a brokerage account to participate in the program. Any shares you are allocated will be placed in your new XYZ account automatically. Once you have paid for your shares, you may sell them or transfer them to another brokerage account, and close your XYZ account, if you like. However, since your XYZ account is a fully functional brokerage account, you may want to keep it, as it offers features such as discounted commissions for buying and selling other stocks. Other questions? You can get answers from XYZ at the web site or the automated phone line. Brokerage services for this program are provided by XYZ Brokerage Services LLC, Member NYSE and SIPC. Follow the instructions on the web site or phone line to confirm how many shares you are interested in pur- chasing. Your shares will be allocated soon after the confirmation period (typically within two hours). Once shares are allocated, you will be responsible for paying for any and all shares in your account. P H A S E 3 PAY FOR YOUR SHARES W I T H I N 3 D AY S O F T R A D I N G D AY F. Check your account to find out how many shares are in it and how much you owe. When you call or log on to check, you’ll see the number of shares you have been allocated and the final IPO price. This informa- tion will be available at about 9 a.m. Eastern Time on the first day of public trading. G . Send XYZ a check or wire for the full amount you owe. If your payment doesn’t arrive within three days of the first public trading day, you will lose your shares. If your payment is late, you will give up any gains or be charged for any losses. Be sure to allow time for the mail. Remember that you can’t pay for your shares with the proceeds you get from selling those shares. To pay by check: Make out your check to “XYZ Brokerage Services LLC.” Write your account number on the memo line. Fill out a deposit slip (from the confirmation statement acknowledging reciept of your Indication of Interest) and send the check and the slip to: By Regular Mail XYZ Investments PO Box 770001, Cincinnati, OH 45277-0030 By Overnight Express XYZ Investments – Newco Wireless Program 2300 Litton Lane, Mail Zone KH2G, Hebron, KY 41048 To pay by wire: Instruct your bank (which may charge for this service) to wire your payment to: By Wire Chase Manhattan Bank, NA ABA Number: 021000021 For credit to: National Financial Services Account Number: 066196-221 For benefit of: Sam Sampleson Account Number: Z00000000 One Chase Manhattan Plaza New York, NY 10004 Fri. 2/15 Sat. 2/16 Sun. 2/17 Mon. 2/18 Tues. 2/19* Wed. 2/20* Thurs. 2/21 Fri. 2/22 Sat. 2/23 Sun. 2/24 Mon. 2/25* Tues. 2/26 Confirm your interest between 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. Eastern Time *Schedule could change; watch for notification or check with the program phone number or web site. p by checking your status Trading day: Shares allocated and public trading starts Share payment due GFE www.XYZ.com/goto/newco 1-800-358-2670 PHASE 2 PHASE 3 Check List PHASE 1 Enter my Indication of Interest using web site or Form A. Complete all sections of Form B. Sign and send in applicable form(s) in time to arrive by Monday, 2/18. Visit web site or telephone to verify that everything is in order. PHASE 2 Confirm my Indication of Interest by web site or phone the evening before the public trading day. PHASE 3 Check to see how many shares I actually received and how much I owe. Pay for my shares by check, electronic funds transfer, or wire within three business days of the trading day. The Program The Directed Share Program from XYZ Brokerage Services LLC gives you the opportunity to buy shares of Newco Wireless stock at the IPO price. The exact price won’t be known until the evening before the stock begins to trade publicly, but it is currently expected to be somewhere between $00.00 and $00.00. Is This Program Right for Me? Stock investing isn’t for everyone. Many factors could push the price of Newco Wireless stock up or down. These factors could be related to the company, to one or more industries, or to the stock market in general. The choice to invest is yours, although you may want to consult with an investment adviser, financial planner, family members, or anyone else who is typically included in your financial decisions. If You Want to Participate To get started with the program, there are three things you need to do: • Read the enclosed materials, including the preliminary prospectus, which tells you about Newco Wireless stock and its risks. • Decide how many shares you want to request. In deciding, you may want to consider several factors, includ- ing your investment goals, how you plan to pay for your shares, and how much exposure you may want to a single stock. • Tell us how many shares you’re interested in buying, either by visiting the web site or by using Form A, the Indication of Interest Form. You can request as few as 100 shares, as many as XXX,XXX shares, or any amount in between that is a multiple of 50. For example, if you want to request more than 100 shares, but less than 300, your pos- sible choices would be 150, 200, or 250 shares. When requesting shares, keep in mind that you might not be allocated the full number you ask for. Depending on supply and demand, you might not be allocated any shares. At the same time, it’s unwise to request more shares than you want, because you might receive — and have to pay for — your full allocation.
