• Old or collectable stock certificates, provided that such stock certificates are cancelled or represent an interest in an entity that no longer legally exists.

• Single-share stock certificates marketed for gift purposes rather than investment purposes, provided that the certificates are marked and advertised as non-transferable, the ownership is not transferred into the name of the purchaser, and the minimum sale price is more than twice the current exchange trading price of the underlying single share security.

Users in Singapore who wish to learn more about the MAS, its role and functions, and relevant legislation and regulations should visit the Web site of the MAS.

Dealers in securities are licensed by MAS under the Securities and Futures Act and futures brokers are licensed by the MAS under the Futures Trading Act.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (“MAS”) is the regulatory authority in Singapore which regulates the dealing in shares, securities and other specified investments, and other specified types of investment activity. The MAS has a number of regulations which place substantial restrictions on an eBay user's ability to sell such items on the Internet through eBay, and/or to carry out such investment activity, and therefore eBay does not permit such dealings.
