Law/Patents - Law: Patents, Trademarks, Copyright | | Spanish term or phrase: help with sentence | It may be that it's been a long day...I don't know...but I'm having trouble getting my head round this sentence. I'm not expecting a complete translation or anything, but can anyone confirm whether this makes sense and what it's trying to say. Are the "tenedor" and "portador" in the first bit the same person?
Thanks in advance, any help much appreciated :)
El tenedor de acciones nominativas podrá conseguir que se le cambie su certificado por otro al portador por igual número de acciones e igualmente el portador de un certificado emitido al portador podrá conseguir que se le cambie dicho certificado a su nombre por igual número de acciones. |

| tenedor = holder; al portador = bearer and is an adjective
Explanation:
quick and dirty explanation:
anyone holding registered shares can swap them for bearer shares and any holding a bearer certificate can swap it for shares registered in his/her name.
