(d)Whenever at any time within one year from the date of publication of such notice the Issuer shall receive an instrument or instru ments executed by the holders of at least 51% in aggregate principal amount of all of the Certifi cates then outstanding which are required for the amendment, which instrument or instruments sha ll refer to the proposed amendment and which 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 Ordi nance pursuant to the provisions of this Section, this Ordinance shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance with such amendatory Ordinance, and the respective rights, du ties, and obligations of the Issuer and all holders of such affected Certificates shall thereafter be determined, exercised, and enforced, subject in all respects to such amendment.

Such consent may be revoked at any time after six months from the date of the publication of said notice by the holder who gave such consent, or by a successor in title, by filing notice with the Issuer, but such revocation shall not be effective if the holders of 51% in aggregate principal amount of the a ffected Certificates then outstanding, have, prior to the attempted revocation, consented to and approved the amendment.
