    Relief is authorized, under certain conditions, for the loss, theft, 
destruction, mutilation or defacement of U.S. securities, whether 
before, at, or after maturity. A bond of indemnity, in such form and 
with such surety, sureties or security as may be required to protect the 
interests of the United States, is required as a condition of relief on 
account of any bearer security or any registered security assigned in 
blank or so assigned as to become in effect payable to bearer, and is 
ordinarily required in the case of unassigned registered securities.
