If the Company merges with another company, carries out corporate demerger (kaisha bunkatsu), share-for-share exchange (kabushiki koukan), share transfer (kabushiki iten) or share delivery (kabushiki koufu), or any other event occurs, and such event compellingly requires an adjustment of the number of Shares subject to Options, the number of Shares to be issued pursuant to such Options
