Din dpin synchronisation

Please advise on the following:

An individual has DPIN and is already a designated partner in an LLP. Now he wishes to incorporate a Private Company in which he also proposes to be a Director. 

How can he apply for DIN when the new Form DIN1 requires a declaration to the effect that "the applicant has not been allotted a Director Identification Number (DIN) under section 266B of the Companies Act,1956 or a Designated Partner Identification Number (DPIN) under section 7 of the Limited Liability Partnership Act, 2008."  

What is the way out?
