Whom do I contact if I never received my stock certificate?

Shareholders of LNUX sometimes own their stock under what's referred to as a "street name" through their broker. Occasionally, shareholders do not receive their certificates unless specifically requested. To avoid this at the time of purchasing stock, please advise your broker that you would like to "hold the physical certificate". This will ensure that you will obtain the stock certificate, as well as all shareholder materials. If this scenario has already occurred, please contact the original broker or investment institution that handled the transaction.

When does Geeknet’s fiscal year end?

The company's fiscal year for 2008 ended on July 31. In March, 2009, the Board of Directors elected to change the Company’s fiscal year end to a calendar basis beginning with calendar year 2008. This change is intended to simplify our communication and will enable us to report our financial results in a timeframe consistent with the majority of our media and eCommerce peers. LNUX therefore established a four month transition period from August 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008. Effective January 1, 2009, LNUX began to file its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q under a calendar quarter reporting schedule.
