May I make optional cash contributions to the Dividend Reinvestment Plan?
Yes. After you are a BB&T shareholder of record, meaning you own at least one share in your own name and not through a brokerage account, you may participate in the Dividend Reinvestment Plan and make optional cash contributions of at least $25, so long as the aggregate of such payments does not exceed $25,000 during any calendar month. Purchases will be made weekly (generally on Fridays or, if that is not a trading day, then on the next trading day) for those choosing the option of investing cash payments other than through bank drafts. Optional cash payments must be received at least three calendar days before the applicable investment date.

May I have my checking or savings account drafted for optional cash payments?
