executed by both the attorney or representative and by the client or the
attorney or representative who will substitute into the proceedings which shall
be filed with the executive secretary; or

or the Board, if the matter is then pending before it, upon the application of
the attorney or representative, or of the client, or of the new attorney or
representative, after notice from one to the other. Withdrawal or substitution
