OpenBook: Open An Account

Institutional investors who wish to bid in OpenBook ^® auctions will need an account with one of the joint managers in the offering.

To bid using an existing account with one of the joint managers in the offering, review the participation agreement and contact your sales person at that firm to obtain a User ID and password. When you log in to an auction for the first time, you will be asked to agree to the participation agreement. Clicking “I Agree”; will activate your account for bidding.

If an institutional investor does not have an account with one of the joint managers, contact WR Hambrecht + Co for more information about opening an account with one of the joint managers.

1. Review the participation agreement.
2. Print, complete, and sign the account application.

After WRH+Co has approved your account for bidding, we will send you an OpenBook auction User ID and password.

Institutional investors may contact us by calling 1-212-549-3280 or by email at OpenBook@WRHambrecht.com.

Individual investors can learn about participating in OpenBook auctions by calling our customer service center at 1-800-673-6476 (toll-free) or 1-610-725-1150.
