(a)the name of any person is, without sufficient cause, entered in or omitted from the register of shareholders of an investment company with variable capital;
(b)default is made as to the details contained in any entry on the register in respect of a person’s holding of shares in the company; or
(c)default is made or unnecessary delay takes place in amending the register so as to reflect the fact of any person having ceased to be a shareholder.
