rule questions about 5e

I'm puzzled about the "leadership" ability of the knight. How you guys think it actually works?
The basic rules have the ability as:
For 1 minute, the knight can utter a special command or warning whenever a nonhostile creature that it can see within 30 feet of it makes an attack roll or a saving throw. The creature can add a d4 to its roll provided it can hear and understand the knight. A creature can benefit from only one Leadership die at a time. This effect ends if the knight is incapacitated.
So... do you think that means that it works more-or-less like a bless spell, giving a +1d4 to non hostiles around the knight, and the "only one dice at a time" means that if there are 3 knights, each ally gets only +1d4 but they can use them all the time (As long as they're near the knights)?
Do you think it means the knight can give that bonus to only one creature per round?
Do you think that it means the knight gives the +1d4 to a creature once per round, i.e. if the creature has multiple attacks it gets the bonus to just one attack?
