Legend Removal Services for Holders of Regulation S Certificates
These certificates
are restricted from trading in the common marketplace for a period of
12 months from the date of issue, after which, they may be eligible to
have the restrictive legend removed after following the correct process
using an Attorney and Transfer Agent. This process is not only confusing
but is normally quite costly for persons not using our services. The
success of legend removal on these certificates cannot be guaranteed
before the 24 month anniversary of the certificate, nor can it be guaranteed
that the internal private or U.S public market will be able to support
the sale of these equities when the legend is removed. For more information

Because of the volume of business we transact, we can usually perform services far cheaper and faster than if a shareholder was to go and attempt to do the process themselves.
Registration by RSC professionals eliminates the frustration of a time-consuming and costly effort to convert the shares to free trading.
Most investors do not have ready access to an attorney who is qualified or willing to provide a legal opinion.
Communicating with the transfer agent can become both complex and frustrating as they may not often deal directly with the general public and offshore shareholders.
Many US brokerage firms will not establish accounts for non-US persons. Moreover, they may not wish to establish accounts for smaller share holders and owners of low-priced issues.
Through one of our Membersites, Regulation-S.net, you
will be able to open an account online, quickly and efficiently. You will
be able to trade your shares here as well, allowing you to lift
the restriction on the certificate, deposit the shares, sell the shares,
and receive your money all through ONE account with no other steps required.
Registering a certificate through us will cost you less than you will pay some attorneys just for the necessary legal opinion. Our fees are $350.00 USD (Just $175.00 for a limited time!) plus associated costs for legal opinions. Transfer agent fees will normally cost approximately $300.00 USD.
You can expect the total cost to be between $300.00 USD and $500.00 USD with a timeline of approximately 3-4 weeks.
If you are part of a large group of shareholders or represent multiple certificates of the same company, please contact us. It is not uncommon for us to be able to negotiate better prices with the attorneys and transfer agents for volume legend removals.
