(b ) the dates of the resolutions authorising the issue of the series and the date of the covering deed (if any) by which the security is created or defined, and
(c) a general description of the property charged, and
(d) the names of the trustees (if any) of the debenture holders,
together with the deed containing the charge or, if there is no such deed, one of the debentures of the series, so, however, that there shall be sent to the registrar for entry in the register particulars in the prescribed form of the date and amount of each issue of debentures of the series, but any omission to do this does not affect the validity of any of those debentures.

(a) subscribing or agreeing to subscribe, whether absolutely or conditionally, for debentures of the company, or
(b) procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions, whether absolute or conditional, for such debentures,
the particulars required to be sent for registration under Article 402 shall include particulars as to the amount or rate per cent. of the commission, discount or allowance so paid or made, but omission to do this does not affect the validity of the debentures issued.
(3) The deposit of debentures as security for a debt of the company is not, for the purposes of paragraph (2), treated as the issue of the debentures at a discount.
