If such a proposal were adopted, I (as rulekeepor) would interpret this as
replacing the existing last sentence.  That doesn't seem likely to be your
intent, in the context of the rule text, though.  Would be better stated
as "... amended by appending to the last paragraph:", or (if you did
intend replacement) "... amended by replacing the last sentence with:".

This is imprecise regarding the textual amendment to be made.
Specifically, it doesn't say where in the list the new item goes.
Would be better stated as "... amended by appending to the list of
Patent Titles:".

We don't hold with legal fictions here.  If they are to be considered
separate proposals for the purposes of voting, then they are in fact
separate proposals.  I have recorded them as such.  It is preferred that
you make the extent of, and separation between, proposals more explicit.

The herald can't do that emself.  Patent titles are awarded by rules
or proposals.
