(b)a statement of the shares included in the warrant, distinguishing each
share by its number so long as the share has a number; and

the company, be entitled, on surrendering it for cancellation, to have his
name entered as a member in the register of members.

reason of the company entering in the register the name of a bearer of a
share warrant in respect of the shares therein specified without the warrant
being surrendered and cancelled.

(4) Until the warrant is surrendered, the particulars specified in sub-section

in the register of members, and, on the surrender, the date of the surrender
must be entered.

(5) Subject to the provisions of this Act, the bearer of a share warrant may,
if the articles of the company so provide, be deemed to be a member of
