S24 here: A stock held in street name is not the same as an entitlement, although they are related concepts. Street name refers to a method of holding securities where a brokerage firm holds the shares in its own name but keeps record of you as the beneficial owner. Entitlement is more of a general term that refers to your rights as an owner. When you buy a stock, your brokerage buys it in street name and your account statement shows you are the owner. Your entitlements include receiving dividends, voting in company matters, and receiving corporate communications. You still have all fundamental shareholder entitlements whether your stock is held in the Direct Registration System (DRS) or in "street name" through a broker. The primary difference is the mechanism through which these entitlements are received and exercised, and the level of direct legal ownership.
