	 	5.3	Share Swap. Insofar as the Company is party to a share swap agreement or arrangement (such as a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation in which the Company is not the surviving
entity or reorganization) (the “Share Swap”), in which an offer is made to the Company’s shareholders to swap their shares for securities of some other corporation, provision shall be made so that the Holder thereafter shall be
