validity or effectiveness of the proceedings for the redemption of any Bond. By the date fixed for any such
redemption due provision shall be made with the Paying Agent/Registrar for the payment of the required
redemption price for the Bonds or portions thereof that are to be so redeemed. If such written notice of
redemption is sent and if due provision for such payment is made, all as provided above, the Bonds or
portions thereof that are to be so redeemed thereby automatically shall be treated as redeemed prior to their
scheduled maturities, and they shall not bear interest after the date fixed for redemption, and they shall not
be regarded as being outstanding except for the right of the Registered Owner to receive the redemption
price from the Paying Agent/Registrar out of the funds provided for such payment. If a portion of any Bond
shall be redeemed, a substitute Bond or Bonds having the same maturity date,bearing interest at the same
rate,in any denomination or denominations in any integral multiple of$5,000, at the written request of the
Registered Owner, and in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof, will be
issued to the Registered Owner upon the surrender thereof for cancellation, at the expense of the Issuer,all
as provided in the Bond Ordinance.
IF AT THE TIME OF MAILING of notice of optional redemption there shall not have either been
deposited with the Paying Agent/Registrar or legally authorized escrow agent immediately available funds
sufficient to redeem all the Bonds called for redemption, such notice may state that it is conditional, and is
subject to the deposit of the redemption moneys with the Paying Agent/Registrar or legally authorized
escrow agent at or prior to the redemption date or any prerequisite set forth in such notice of redemption.
If such redemption is not effectuated, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall, within five days thereafter, give
notice in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given that such moneys were not so received
or such prerequisites were not met and shall rescind the redemption.
ALL BONDS OF THIS SERIES are issuable solely as fully registered bonds, without interest
coupons,in the denomination of any integral multiple of$5,000. As provided in the Bond Ordinance,this
Bond may, at the request of the Registered Owner or the assignee or assignees hereof, be assigned,
transferred, converted into and exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of fully registered Bonds,
without interest coupons, payable to the appropriate Registered Owner, assignee or assignees, as the case
may be,having the same denomination or denominations in any integral multiple of$5,000 as requested in
writing by the appropriate Registered Owner, assignee or assignees, as the case may be,upon surrender of
this Bond to the Paying Agent/Registrar for cancellation, all in accordance with the form and procedures
set forth in the Bond Ordinance. Among other requirements for such assignment and transfer, this Bond
must be presented and surrendered to the Paying Agent/Registrar, together with proper instruments of
assignment,in form and with guarantee of signatures satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar,evidencing
assignment of this Bond or any portion or portions hereof in any integral multiple of$5,000 to the assignee
or assignees in whose name or names this Bond or any such portion or portions hereof is or are to be
registered. The Form of Assignment printed or endorsed on this Bond may be executed by the Registered
Owner to evidence the assignment hereof, but such method is not exclusive, and other instruments of
assignment satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar may be used to evidence the assignment of this Bond
or any portion or portions hereof from time to time by the Registered Owner. The Paying Agent/Registrar's
reasonable standard or customary fees and charges for assigning, transferring, converting and exchanging
any Bond or portion thereof will be paid by the Issuer. In any circumstance, any taxes or governmental
charges required to be paid with respect thereto shall be paid by the one requesting such assignment,
transfer, conversion or exchange, as a condition precedent to the exercise of such privilege. The Paying
Agent/Registrar shall not be required to make any such transfer, conversion, or exchange (i) during the
Page 10
period commencing with the close of business on any Record Date and ending with the opening of business
on the next following principal or interest payment date, or (ii) with respect to any Bond or any portion
thereof called for redemption prior to maturity,within 45 days prior to its redemption date.
IN THE EVENT any Paying Agent/Registrar for the Bonds is changed by the Issuer, resigns, or
otherwise ceases to act as such, the Issuer has covenanted in the Bond Ordinance that it promptly will
appoint a competent and legally qualified substitute therefor, and cause written notice thereof to be mailed
to the Registered Owners of the Bonds.
IT IS HEREBY certified, recited and covenanted that this Bond has been duly and validly
authorized, issued and delivered; that all acts, conditions and things required or proper to be performed,

A. immediately under the name of the Bond,the headings "Interest Rate" and"Maturity
Date" shall both be completed with the words"As shown below"and"CUSIP No. "shall
be deleted.
B. the first paragraph shall be deleted and the following will be inserted:
"THE CITY OF DENTON,TEXAS, in Denton County,Texas (the "Issuer"),being a political subdivision
and municipal corporation of the State of Texas,hereby promises to pay to the Registered Owner specified
above, or registered assigns (hereinafter called the "Registered Owner"), on February 15 in each of the

authentication is after any Record Date but on or before the next following interest payment date, in which
case such principal amount shall bear interest from such next following interest payment date; provided,
however, that if on the date of authentication hereof the interest on the Bond or Bonds, if any, for which

C. The Initial Bond shall be numbered"T-l."
Page 13
SECTION 5. INTEREST AND SINKING FUND.
(a) A special Interest and Sinking Fund(the"Interest and Sinking Fund")is hereby created solely for
the benefit of the Bonds,and the Interest and Sinking Fund shall be established and maintained by the Issuer
at an official depository bank of the Issuer. The Interest and Sinking Fund shall be kept separate and apart
from all other funds and accounts of the Issuer,and shall be used only for paying the interest on and principal
of the Bonds. All ad valorem taxes levied and collected for and on account of the Bonds,together with any
accrued interest received upon sale of the Bonds,shall be deposited,as collected,to the credit of the Interest
and Sinking Fund. During each year while any of the Bonds or interest thereon are outstanding and unpaid,
the governing body of the Issuer shall compute and ascertain a rate and amount of ad valorem tax which
will be sufficient to raise and produce the money required to pay the interest on the Bonds as such interest
becomes due,and to provide and maintain a sinking fund adequate to pay the principal of its Bonds as such
principal matures or is scheduled for redemption(but never less than 2%of the original principal amount
of the Bonds as a sinking fund each year). Said tax shall be based on the latest approval tax rolls of the
Issuer, with full allowance being made for tax delinquencies and the cost of tax collection. Said rate and
amount of ad valorem tax is hereby levied, and is hereby ordered to be levied, against all taxable property
in the Issuer for each year while any of the Bonds or interest thereon are outstanding and unpaid; and said
tax shall be assessed and collected each such year and deposited to the credit of the aforesaid Interest and
Sinking Fund. Said ad valorem taxes sufficient to provide for the payment of the interest on and principal
of the Bonds, as such interest comes due and such principal matures or is scheduled for redemption, are
hereby pledged for such payment,within the limit prescribed by law. Notwithstanding the requirements of
this Section, if Surplus Revenues or other lawfully available moneys of the Issuer are actually on deposit
or budgeted and appropriated to be deposited in the Interest and Sinking Fund in advance of the time when
ad valorem taxes are scheduled to be levied for any year, then the amount of taxes that otherwise would
have been required to be levied pursuant to this Section may be reduced to the extent and by the amount of
the Surplus Revenues or other lawfully available funds then on deposit or budgeted and appropriated to be
deposited in the Interest and Sinking Fund. For purposes of this Section, "Surplus Revenues" means
revenues derived by the Issuer from the ownership and operation of the Issuer's Utility System(consisting
of its combined waterworks system,sanitary sewer system,and electric light and power system)that remain
after the payment of all maintenance and operation expenses thereof,and all debt service,reserve and other
requirements in connection with all of the Issuer's revenue obligations (now or hereafter outstanding) or
contractual obligations(now or hereafter existing)which are payable from all or any part of the net revenues
of the Issuer's Utility System. If Surplus Revenues are budgeted and appropriated for deposit into the
Interest and Sinking Fund,the Issuer:
(i) shall transfer and deposit in the Interest and Sinking Fund each month an amount of not less than
1/12th of the annual debt service on the Bonds to be paid from Surplus Revenues until the amount on
deposit in the Interest and Sinking Fund equals the amount required for annual debt service on the
Bonds;
(ii) shall establish, adopt and maintain an annual budget that provides for either the monthly deposit
of sufficient Surplus Revenues and/or tax revenues,the monthly deposit of any other legally available
funds on hand at the time of the adoption of the annual budget, or a combination thereof, into the
Interest and Sinking Fund for the repayment of the Bonds; and
(iii) shall at all times maintain and collect sufficient Utility System rates and charges in conjunction
with any other legally available funds that, after payment of the costs of operating and maintaining
the Utility System,produce revenues in an amount not less than the debt service requirements of all
outstanding Utility System revenue bonds of the Issuer and other obligations of the Issuer which are
secured in whole or in part by a pledge of revenues of the Utility System and for which the Issuer is
budgeting the repayment of such obligations from the revenues of the Utility System, or the Issuer
Page 14
shall provide documentation which evidences the levy of an ad valorem tax rate dedicated to the
Interest and Sinking Fund,in conjunction with any other legally available funds except Utility System
rates and charges, sufficient for the repayment of Utility System debt service requirements.
(b) Chapter 1208, Texas Government Code, applies to the issuance of the Bonds and the pledge of
the taxes granted by the Issuer under this Section and Section 9, respectively, and is therefore valid,
effective, and perfected. Should Texas law be amended at any time while the Bonds are outstanding and
unpaid, the result of such amendment being that the pledge of the taxes granted by the Issuer under this
Section is to be subject to the filing requirements of Chapter 9,Texas Business&Commerce Code,in order
to preserve to the Registered Owners of the Bonds a security interest in said pledge, the Issuer agrees to
take such measures as it determines are reasonable and necessary under Texas law to comply with the
applicable provisions of Chapter 9, Texas Business & Commerce Code and enable a filing of a security
interest in said pledge to occur.
SECTION 6. DEFEASANCE OF BONDS.
(a) Any Bond and the interest thereon shall be deemed to be paid,retired and no longer outstanding
(a"Defeased Bond")within the meaning of this Ordinance, except to the extent provided in subsection(d)
of this Section,when payment of the principal of such Bond,plus interest thereon to the due date(whether
such due date be by reason of maturity or otherwise) either(i) shall have been made or caused to be made
in accordance with the terms thereof, or (ii) shall have been provided for on or before such due date by
irrevocably depositing with or making available to the Paying Agent/Registrar in accordance with an
escrow agreement or other instrument(the"Future Escrow Agreement")for such payment(1) lawful money
of the United States of America sufficient to make such payment or(2) Government Obligations that mature
as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such times as will insure the availability, without
reinvestment, of sufficient money to provide for such payment, and when proper arrangements have been
made by the Issuer with the Paying Agent/Registrar for the payment of its services until all Defeased Bonds
shall have become due and payable. At such time as a Bond shall be deemed to be a Defeased Bond
hereunder, as aforesaid, such Bond and the interest thereon shall no longer be secured by,payable from, or
entitled to the benefits of, the ad valorem taxes herein levied and pledged as provided in this Ordinance,
and such principal and interest shall be payable solely from such money or Government Obligations.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance to the contrary, it is hereby provided that any
determination not to redeem Defeased Bonds that is made in conjunction with the payment arrangements
specified in Subsection (a)(i) or (ii) of this Section shall not be irrevocable, provided that: (1) in the
proceedings providing for such payment arrangements, the Issuer expressly reserves the right to call the
Defeased Bonds for redemption; (2) gives notice of the reservation of that right to the Registered Owners
of the Defeased Bonds immediately following the making of the payment arrangements; and(3)directs that
notice of the reservation be included in any redemption notices that it authorizes.
(b) Any moneys so deposited with the Paying Agent/Registrar may at the written direction of the
Issuer be invested in Government Obligations,maturing in the amounts and times as hereinbefore set forth,
and all income from such Government Obligations received by the Paying Agent/Registrar that is not
required for the payment of the Bonds and interest thereon, with respect to which such money has been so
deposited, shall be turned over to the Issuer, or deposited as directed in writing by the Issuer. Any Future
Escrow Agreement pursuant to which the money and/or Government Obligations are held for the payment
of Defeased Bonds may contain provisions permitting the investment or reinvestment of such moneys in
Government Obligations or the substitution of other Government Obligations upon the satisfaction of the
requirements specified in Subsection (a)(i) or (ii) of this Section. All income from such Government
Obligations received by the Paying Agent/Registrar which is not required for the payment of the Defeased
Bonds,with respect to which such money has been so deposited,shall be remitted to the Issuer or deposited
as directed in writing by the Issuer.
Page 15
(c) Unless modified in the Pricing Certificate, the term "Government Obligations" means any
securities and obligations now or hereafter authorized by state law that are eligible to discharge obligations
such as the Bonds, including(i) direct, noncallable obligations of the United States of America, including
obligations that are unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America,(ii)noncallable obligations
of an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America, including obligations that are
unconditionally guaranteed or insured by the agency or instrumentality and that, on the date the governing
body of the Issuer adopts or approves the proceedings authorizing the financial arrangements, are rated as
to investment quality by a nationally recognized investment rating firm not less than AAA or its equivalent,
and (iii) noncallable obligations of a state or an agency or a county, municipality, or other political
subdivision of a state that have been refunded and that,on the date the governing body of the Issuer adopts
or approves the proceedings authorizing the financial arrangements,are rated as to investment quality by a
nationally recognized investment rating firm not less than AAA or its equivalent.
(d) Until all Defeased Bonds shall have become due and payable, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall
perform the services of Paying Agent/Registrar for such Defeased Bonds the same as if they had not been
defeased, and the Issuer shall make proper arrangements to provide and pay for such services as required
by this Ordinance.
(e) In the event that the Issuer elects to defease less than all of the principal amount of Bonds of a
maturity, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall select, or cause to be selected, such amount of Bonds by such
random method as it deems fair and appropriate.
SECTION 7. DAMAGED,MUTILATED,LOST, STOLEN, OR DESTROYED BONDS.
(a) Replacement Bonds. In the event any outstanding Bond is damaged, mutilated, lost, stolen or
destroyed,the Paying Agent/Registrar shall cause to be printed,executed and delivered, a new Bond of the
same principal amount,maturity and interest rate,as the damaged,mutilated,lost,stolen or destroyed Bond,
in replacement for such Bond in the manner hereinafter provided.
(b) Application for Replacement Bonds. Application for replacement of damaged, mutilated, lost,
stolen or destroyed Bonds shall be made by the Registered Owner thereof to the Paying Agent/Registrar.
In every case of loss,theft or destruction of a Bond,the Registered Owner applying for a replacement Bond
shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Paying Agent/Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required
by them to save each of them harmless from any loss or damage with respect thereto. Also, in every case
of loss, theft or destruction of a Bond, the Registered Owner shall furnish to the Issuer and to the Paying
Agent/Registrar evidence to their satisfaction of the loss,theft or destruction of such Bond, as the case may
be. In every case of damage or mutilation of a Bond, the Registered Owner shall surrender to the Paying
Agent/Registrar for cancellation the Bond so damaged or mutilated.
(c) No Default Occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Ordinance, in the event
any such Bond shall have matured, and no default has occurred that is then continuing in the payment of
the principal of,redemption premium,if any,or interest on the Bond,the Issuer may authorize the payment
of the same(without surrender thereof except in the case of a damaged or mutilated Bond)instead of issuing
a replacement Bond,provided security or indemnity is furnished as above provided in this Section.
(d) Charge for Issuing Replacement Bonds. Prior to the issuance of any replacement Bond, the
Paying Agent/Registrar shall charge the Registered Owner of such Bond with all legal,printing, and other
expenses in connection therewith. Every replacement Bond issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section
by virtue of the fact that any Bond is lost,stolen or destroyed shall constitute a contractual obligation of the
Issuer whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Bond shall be found at any time, or be enforceable by
Page 16
anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Ordinance equally and proportionately with any and
all other Bonds duly issued under this Ordinance.
(e) A«1ItoritV_1'01-_assi1„ink_RC01acement Bonds. In accordance with Sec. 1206.022,Government Code,

duty of the replacement of such Bonds is hereby authorized and imposed upon the Paying Agent/Registrar,
and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall authenticate and deliver such Bonds in the form and manner and with
the effect, as provided in Section 3(a) of this Ordinance for Bonds issued in conversion and exchange for
other Bonds.

ENGAGEMENT OF BOND COUNSEL.
(a) The Mayor of the Issuer is hereby authorized to have control of the Initial Bond and all necessary

Initial Bond said Comptroller(or a deputy designated in writing to act for said Comptroller)shall manually

convenience and information of the Registered Owners of the Bonds. In addition, if bond insurance is
obtained,the Bonds may bear an appropriate legend as provided by the insurer.

SECTION 9. COVENANTS REGARDING TAX EXEMPTION OF INTEREST ON THE BONDS.
(a) Covenants. The Issuer covenants to take any action necessary to assure, or refrain from any
action that would adversely affect,the treatment of the Bonds as obligations described in section 103 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the interest on which is not includable in the
"gross income" of the holder for purposes of federal income taxation. In furtherance thereof, the Issuer
covenants as follows:
(1) to take any action to assure that no more than 10 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds or
the projects financed therewith (less amounts deposited to a reserve fund, if any) are used for any
"private business use,” as defined in section 141(b)(6)of the Code or, if more than 10 percent of the
proceeds or the projects financed or refinanced therewith are so used, such amounts, whether or not
received by the Issuer, with respect to such private business use, do not, under the terms of this
Ordinance or any underlying arrangement, directly or indirectly, secure or provide for the payment
of more than 10 percent of the debt service on the Bonds,in contravention of section 141(b)(2)of the
Code;
Page 17
(2) to take any action to assure that in the event that the "private business use" described in
subsection (1) hereof exceeds 5 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds or the projects financed
therewith(less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any)then the amount in excess of 5 percent
is used for a "private business use" that is "related" and not "disproportionate," within the meaning
of section 141(b)(3)of the Code,to the governmental use;
(3) to take any action to assure that no amount that is greater than the lesser of$5,000,000, or
5 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds(less amounts deposited into a reserve fund,if any)is directly
or indirectly used to finance loans to persons, other than state or local governmental units, in
contravention of section 141(c)of the Code;
(4) to refrain from taking any action that would otherwise result in the Bonds being treated as
"private activity bonds"within the meaning of section 141(b) of the Code;
(5) to refrain from taking any action that would result in the Bonds being "federally
guaranteed"within the meaning of section 149(b) of the Code;
(6) to refrain from using any portion of the proceeds of the Bonds, directly or indirectly, to
acquire or to replace funds that were used, directly or indirectly, to acquire investment property(as
defined in section 148(b)(2)of the Code)that produces a materially higher yield over the term of the
Bonds, other than investment property acquired with:
(A) proceeds of the Bonds invested for a reasonable temporary period of 3 years or less
or,in the case of a refunding bond,for a period of 90 days or less until such proceeds are needed
for the purpose for which the bonds are issued,
(B) amounts invested in a bona fide debt service fund, within the meaning of section
1.148-1(b) of the rules and regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury
("Treasury Regulations"), and
(C) amounts deposited in any reasonably required reserve or replacement fund to the
extent such amounts do not exceed 10 percent of the proceeds of the Bonds;
(7) to otherwise restrict the use of the proceeds of the Bonds or amounts treated as proceeds
of the Bonds, as may be necessary, so that the Bonds do not otherwise contravene the requirements
of section 148 of the Code(relating to arbitrage);
(8) to refrain from using the proceeds of the Bonds or proceeds of any prior bonds to pay debt
service on another issue more than 90 days after the date of issue of the Bonds in contravention of
the requirements of section 149(d)of the Code(relating to advance refundings); and
(9) to pay to the United States of America at least once during each five-year period(beginning
on the date of delivery of the Bonds) an amount that is at least equal to 90 percent of the "Excess
Earnings," within the meaning of section 148(f) of the Code and to pay to the United States of
America, not later than 60 days after the Bonds have been paid in full, 100 percent of the amount
then required to be paid as a result of Excess Earnings under section 148(f)of the Code.
(b) [Wxi(e ['find. In order to facilitate compliance with the above covenant(a)(9), a"Rebate Fund"
is hereby established by the Issuer for the sole benefit of the United States of America, and such Rebate
Fund shall not be subject to the claim of any other person, including without limitation the Bondholders.
Page 18
The Rebate Fund is established for the additional purpose of compliance with section 148 of the Code.
(c) Usc of Proceeds. The Issuer understands that the term"proceeds"includes"disposition proceeds"
as defined in the Treasury Regulations and, in the case of refunding bonds, transferred proceeds (if any)
and proceeds of the refunded bonds expended prior to the date of issuance of the Bonds. It is the
understanding of the Issuer that the covenants contained herein are intended to assure compliance with the
Code and any regulations or rulings promulgated by the United States Department of the Treasury pursuant
thereto. In the event that regulations or rulings are hereafter promulgated that modify or expand provisions
of the Code, as applicable to the Bonds, the Issuer will not be required to comply with any covenant
contained herein to the extent that such failure to comply, in the opinion of nationally recognized bond
counsel,will not adversely affect the exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds under
section 103 of the Code. In the event that regulations or rulings are hereafter promulgated that impose
additional requirements applicable to the Bonds, the Issuer agrees to comply with the additional
requirements to the extent necessary, in the opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel,to preserve the
exemption from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds under section 103 of the Code. In
furtherance of such intention, the Issuer hereby authorizes and directs the Mayor or Pricing Officer to
execute any documents, certificates or reports required by the Code and to make such elections, on behalf
of the Issuer,that may be permitted by the Code as are consistent with the purpose for the issuance of the
Bonds.
(d) Allocation of.and Limitation on, Expenditures for the Projects. The Issuer covenants to account
for the expenditure of sale proceeds and investment earnings to be used for the construction and acquisition
of the Improvement Projects on its books and records in accordance with the requirements of the Code.
The Issuer recognizes that in order for the proceeds to be considered used for the reimbursement of costs,
the proceeds must be allocated to expenditures within 18 months of the later of the date that (1) the
expenditure is made, or(2)the Improvement Projects are completed; but in no event later than three years
after the date on which the original expenditure is paid. The foregoing notwithstanding, the Issuer
recognizes that in order for proceeds to be expended under the Code, the sale proceeds or investment
earnings must be expended no more than 60 days after the earlier of(1)the fifth anniversary of the delivery
of the Bonds, or (2) the date the Bonds are retired. The Issuer agrees to obtain the advice of nationally-
recognized bond counsel if such expenditure fails to comply with the foregoing to assure that such
expenditure will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Bonds. For purposes hereof, the issuer
shall not be obligated to comply with this covenant if it obtains an opinion that such failure to comply will
not adversely affect the excludability for federal income tax purposes from gross income of the interest.
(e) Disposition of Projects. The Issuer covenants that the property constituting the Improvement
Projects and the projects refinanced by the Bonds will not be sold or otherwise disposed in a transaction
resulting in the receipt by the Issuer of cash or other compensation, unless any action taken in connection
with such disposition will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Bonds. For purposes of the
foregoing,the Issuer may rely on an opinion of nationally-recognized bond counsel that the action taken in
connection with such sale or other disposition will not adversely affect the tax-exempt status of the Bonds.
For purposes of the foregoing,the portion of the property comprising personal property and disposed in the
ordinary course shall not be treated as a transaction resulting in the receipt of cash or other compensation.

the Insurance Policy as set forth in the Pricing Certificate are incorporated by reference into this Ordinance
and made a part hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any other provision of this Ordinance to the

Interest and Sinking Fund. It is further provided,however,that any interest earnings on Bond proceeds that

changed circumstances that arise from a change in legal requirements, a change in law, or a change

in The City of New York,New York or in the State of Texas. Such published notice shall briefly set forth
the nature of the proposed amendment and shall state that a copy thereof is on file at the office of the Issuer

instruments shall refer to the proposed amendment and that shall specifically consent to and approve such
amendment, the Issuer may adopt the amendment in substantially the same form.
(e) Upon the adoption of any amendatory Ordinance pursuant to the provisions of this Section, this
Ordinance shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance with such amendatory Ordinance,

irrevocable for a period of six months from the date of the publication of the notice provided for in this
Section, and shall be conclusive and binding upon all future holders of the same Bond during such period.
Such consent may be revoked at any time after six months from the date of the publication of said notice
