Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with
such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60
days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing

endorsement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon

principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
