This bond is subject to the condition, and every holder hereof by accepting the same agrees with the obligor and every subsequent holder hereof, that (a) the delivery of this bond to any transferee shall vest title in this bond and in the interest coupons attached hereto in such transferee to the same extent for all purposes as would the delivery under like circumstances of any negotiable instrument payable to bearer; (b) the obligor and any agent of the obligor may treat the bearer of this bond as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary; (c) the principal of and the interest on this bond shall be paid, and this bond and each of the coupons appertain­ing thereto are transferable, free from and without regard to any equities between the obligor and the original of any intermediate holder hereof, or any set-offs or cross-claims; and (d) the surrender to the obligor or any agent of the obligor of this bond and each of the coupons shall be a good discharge to the obligor for the same.
