| 5 | Consideration under Merger | Srnce, the Transferor Companies are wholly owned subsidtaraes of the Transferee Company, upon the Scheme cornrng into effect, all equtty shares of the Transferor Companies held by the Transferor Company (either directly or through nom nees) shall stand cancelled without any further application, act or deed. t is clar fted that no new shares shall be issued or any payment made n cash whatsoever by the Transferee Conpany in lieu of shares of the Transferor Companies pursuant to the Scheme of ArranEement |
