thereof, is required or, if the Registry of Deeds formalities
are complied with, the copy of a Declaration of Assignment or

on the condition that the beneficiary of the change of ownership
or rights of use or security interest in the deed to be recorded
is the same for all of the rights and that the numbers of all
of the applications or registrations in question are clearly indicated
