When will year-end tax statements be mailed to shareholders?
Beneficial Shareholders should contact their broker regarding all year-end tax statement issues. Registered Shareholders year-end tax statements are mailed in two distributed based on their dividend payment method and / or foreign status: • If you receive your dividend payment via check or direct deposit your tax statement will be mailed with last dividend payment of the year, which is the fourth Monday in October and will be printed on the stub of your dividend payment check or ACH confirmation. This consolidated mailing enables Safeco to provide shareholders with more timely tax reporting information, while reducing expenses. • If you are a foreign investor, your tax statement will be mailed at the beginning of the year in a separate mailing. Our transfer agent administers dividend payments and year-end tax statements distributions for Safeco shareholders. Questions can be directed to them at (800) 524-4458 or on the Web at The Bank of New York. Neither Safeco nor The Bank of New Yor
