then, in respect of each such acquisition, purchase or development, an amount (referred to in this subsection as the “adjustment amount”) shall be calculated in accordance with subparagraph (ii) and the cancellation amount shall be the sum of the adjustment amounts so calculated or, if there is only one such adjustment amount, that amount: but if there is no adjustment amount, the cancellation amount is nil.
