The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to fill out a USM-285 form for H+HC and include the address 50 Water Street, 17th Fl., New York, NY 10004, so the USMS may effect service. 2. The Clerk of Court is further instructed to issue an amended summons and deliver to the USMS all the paperwork necessary for the USMS to effect service upon H+HC. 3. The Court hereby extends, for good cause, the time to serve until 90 days from today.
