Adjustment of Consideration (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the issued and outstanding VAALCO Shares shall have been changed into a different number of shares by reason of any split or consolidation of the issued and outstanding VAALCO Shares, then the Consideration to be paid per TransGlobe Share shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to TransGlobe Shareholders the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement and the Arrangement prior to such action and as so adjusted shall, from and after the date of such event, be the Consideration to be paid per TransGlobe Share.
