“(o)to concur, in respect of any securities of a company (being securities comprised in the trust estate), in any scheme or arrangement—
(i)for the reconstruction of the company,
(ii)for the sale of all or any part of the property and undertaking of the company to another company,
(iii)for the acquisition of the securities of the company, or of control thereof, by another company,
(iv)for the amalgamation of the company with another company, or
(v)for the release, modification, or variation of any rights, privileges or liabilities attached to the securities or any of them,
in like manner as if the trustees were entitled to such securities beneficially ; to accept any securities of any denomination or description of the reconstructed or purchasing or new company in lieu of, or in exchange for, all or any of the first mentioned securities; and to retain any securities so accepted as aforesaid for any period for which the trustees could have properly retained the original securities ;
(p)to exercise, to such extent as the trustees think fit, any conditional or preferential right to subscribe for any securities in a company (being a right offered to them in respect of any holding in the company), to apply capital money of the trust estate in payment of the consideration, and to retain any such securities for which they have subscribed for any period for which they have the power to retain the holding in respect of which the right to subscribe for the securities was offered (but subject to any conditions subject to which they have that power); to renounce, to such extent as they think fit, any such right; or to assign, to such extent as they think fit and for the best consideration that can reasonably be obtained, the benefit of such right or the title thereto to any person, including any beneficiary under the trust.”
