Additional Information About Telephone and Online Transfers

  • A transfer to an individual, joint or trust account is reflected on Computershare's system within 1 business day or a rejection notice is sent by email to the email address the transferor provided when submitting the transfer request.
  • The transferee will also be mailed an SAIC, Inc. Common Stock statement within one to two business days of the transfer being completed. The account statement will NOT reflect the transferor's information/name. Therefore, if the transfer is a gift, you should advise the recipient of your transaction.
  • An Access ID and PIN Number will be mailed in two separate letters to the transferee. With the Access ID and PIN Number, the transferee will be able to view the transferee's account information and certify their tax ID number in order to avoid IRS mandatory back-up withholding on future transactions.
  • After the transfer is processed, Computershare will mail a notice to the address provided by the transferor on the Account Registration page to the transferee that requests the transferee certify their tax ID number online [Form W-9 or Form W-8BEN (for a foreign individual)].
  • Transferees must certify their Tax ID number (Form W-9 or W-8BEN) online for every account they hold with Computershare. The transferee is responsible for ensuring that each account's Tax ID number is certified. Failure to certify prior to the sale of stock date through Computershare will result in a 28 percent U.S. backup withholding tax, which cannot be refunded by SAIC or Computershare.

SAIC Common Stock Transfer Form

You can use the SAIC Common Stock Transfer Form to transfer shares to an individual, joint, trust, custodial, estate, charity, etc. account within Computershare. If you are transferring shares to a charitable organization and the organization desires to sell the transferred shares, the charitable organization will need to submit the sale order itself, either through Computershare's Share Selling Program or by first transferring the shares from Computershare to a brokerage account.
