The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the shares or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

37.1 Adjustment for Share Splits, Share Subdivisions or Combinations.

The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the shares or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant.
