Secondly, allotment of shares shall be made to others who have applied for subscription of shares without exercised subscription rights, and in the event of oversubscription, allotment shall be made pro-rata in relation to the number of shares that such persons have applied for subscription for and, insofar as this cannot be done, by drawing of lots.
