Problem ending subprocess with active intermediate timer alive

Hi,we are making electronic signing software which works like this: we create a form that needs to be signed by one or multiple signers. This initiates a signing process where we use Activiti. In our BPMN diagram we loop a list of persons which are sent email that they need to sign the form in a web

Just noticed that the diagram is kind of confusing since inside "Waiting and reminding"-subprocess there's timer for sending email to signer again. That's old design so I removed it:

Looked more into it and that stack trace is related to another timer catch event in the diagram (the one right after when you exit Multi instance-subprocess). I then tried to delete it, made a new signing process and got stack trace again, now regarding yet another timer catch event inside Multi instance-subprocess. This worked fine before that reminder email-part and its timers.

EDIT: Alright, now it seems to work! Here's how I did it:

So when everyone has signed and we exit multi instance subprocess, I signal the "Wait for 'everyone has signed' notification"-receive task so that the branching execution there reaches end state and is finished.
