By granting such e xtension no injustice is caused to the Company. Registration, on the other hand, will ensure that what the Company agreed upon with the Applicant Bank is properly secured under the law. \par \par Accordingly the application is allowed. The applicant Bank is hereby granted an extension of time to register Company Form 4 within 15 days from the date of this order. \par \par The applicant is to bear the costs of this Application. \par \par \par }{\b\insrsid4069550\charrsid526777 Remmy Kasule \par Ag.
