Memorandum - Investment Fund
OFFERING PRICE
Class A Shares shall be initially offered at $25,000 (U.S.) and Class B Shares shall be initially offered at $30,000 (U.S.) per share. On the last Business Day of each calendar semester the directors of the Fund shall determine the offering price applicable to all of the Dealing Days within the following calendar semester.
The above notwithstanding, the owners of the first 100 issued by the Fund will have the option to buy the same amount of shares they * owe * until 31/12/2014 at the same price they had originally paid.]
Could this be a typo? To me it makes no sense, but then of course, this is NOT my area of expertise. TIA!

own
My guess is that if they are being offered additional shares at the original price the word should be OWN.

This being the case, the Spanish would be "el mismo número de (la misma cantidad de) acciones que ya posee (que ya tiene)".
