HRS §490:8-307
Getting the paperwork needed to register a security transfer
When you buy a security, the seller must give you the proof or documents needed to register the transfer, unless you both agree otherwise. If the transfer is a gift, the seller only has to help if you pay the costs. If the seller delays too long, you can cancel the deal.

The statute, as written — Purchaser's right to requisites for registration of transfer
Unless otherwise agreed, the transferor of a security on due demand shall supply the purchaser with proof of authority to transfer or with any other requisite necessary to obtain registration of the transfer of the security, but if the transfer is not for value, a transferor need not comply unless the purchaser pays the necessary expenses. If the transferor fails within a reasonable time to comply with the demand, the purchaser may reject or rescind the transfer.
