REGISTERED

Entered or recorded in some official register or record or list Registered bond. The bonds of the United States government (and of many municipal and private corporations) are either registered or ”coupon bonds.” In the case of a registered bond, the name of the owner or lawful holder is entered in a register or record, and it is not negotiable or transferable except by an entry on the register, and checks or warrants are sent to the registered holder for the successive installments of interest as they fall due. A bond with interest coupons attached is transferable by mere delivery, and the coupons are payable, as due, to the person who shall present them for payment. But the bond issues of many private corporations now provide that the individual bonds “may be registered as to principal,” leaving the interest coupons payable to bearer, or that they may be registered as to both principal and interest at the option of the holder.
