Wachovia currently pays its shareholders a dividend four times a year. Please note that future dividends are subject to approval of the Board of Directors, and dividend payment dates typically occur on or about the 15th of March, June, September, and December.

If a dividend check is lost or stolen, you can get a replacement by contacting Wachovia's Transfer Agent at (800) 347-1246. The Transfer Agent will place a stop payment on the original check and issue a replacement check. Once the stop payment is in effect, the original check will no longer be valid and cannot be cashed.
