(3) to (6) were renumbered (5) to (8), respectively, as the probable intent of Congress, notwithstanding the language of section 303(b)(2) of Pub. L. 95–523 directing that existing pars. (3) to (6) be redesignated (6) to (9), respectively. Subsec. (b). Pub. L. 95–523, § 303(c), added pars. (3) and (4) and redesignated existing pars. (3) and (4) as (6) and (7), respectively.
