PROSPECTUS DELIVERY METHODS
Important prospectus delivery information for customers
of Lafayette Investments, Inc.
In January 2008, First Clearing, LLC and Lafayette Investments,
Inc. adopted the “Access Equals Delivery” (AED) model
which presumes that investors have access to the Internet, and
permits securities issuers to satisfy their prospectus delivery
requirements by filing the final prospectus with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC) via EDGAR.
The AED model eliminates the requirement for issuers to print
and deliver paper final prospectuses to investors. The rules also
allow issuers and intermediaries to send each purchaser of securities,
in lieu of the final prospectus, a notice that the sale was made
pursuant to a registration statement.
Trade confirmations for AED-eligible securities will refer clients
to the website of the SEC (www.sec.gov)
for company information, including real-time prospectus filings.
Trade confirmations for non-AED eligible securities will continue
to state that the prospectus was mailed (or sent electronically)
under separate cover. Please contact your registered rep or advisor
if you have questions.
This policy is effective 1/11/2008.
