registered shares during the period covered should be treated 
as if the members had transferred the shares since the date 
of the last return. The information required to be stated 
in the summary is set out in s. 108 (3) of the Act and appears 
on the form of summary. 
Subject to the articles of the company the holder of a 
share warrant is entitled, in accordance with s. 97 (2), upon 
surrendering the warrant for cancellation to have his name 
entered as a member in the register of members. The warrant 
must be actually surrendered and cancelled, as otherwise 
the company is responsible for any loss which may be involved. 
[s. 97 (3)]. In dealing with such cases an application form 
for exchanging share warrants for registered shares should 
be required (see Form 49). A form of receipt for this applica- 
tion and for the share warrants deposited in connection 
therewith would be issued by the company (see Form 45), 
and might, in practice, be treated as a transfer receipt in the 
event of the shares being sold before the share certificate is 
ready for delivery. The application for registered shares 
would be entered in the share warrant surrender register 
(Form 47), and the entry posted in due course from there tc

with notice of general meeting are printed, a paragraph on 
the following lines may be inserted after the usual notice 
of meeting:
