(i) Ascertaining the Market Rent

time of such review be the current market rent of the Premises as between a willing lessor and a willing lessee having regard to the Premises offered, the provision of parking facilities (if any), the terms other than rental and all matters then relevant to the determination of such rental but without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing the Lessee’s obligations (if any) to contribute to the Outgoings and subject to the following provisions of this clause the amount so determined shall be the Rent payable by the Lessee from the relevant Market Review Date PROVIDED THAT nothing in this clause shall operate to reduce the Rent payable below the previous years’ annual Rent.

(ii) Dispute of Proposed Market Rent

The Lessor shall notify the Lessee in writing of the Rent which the Lessor considers is the current market rent of the Premises and the Lessee shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of such notice from the Lessor within which the Lessee may notify the Lessor in writing as to whether it disputes the current market rent determined by the Lessor. Should the Lessee not so notify the Lessor that it disputes the Lessor’s assessment of the current market rent then the Lessee will be deemed to have accepted the Lessor’s assessment of the current market rent and the Lessor’s assessment of the current market rent shall be the Rent payable from the relevant Market Review Date.

(iii) Determination by Valuer

If the Lessor and the Lessee cannot agree on the appointment of a valuer in accordance with sub-clause 2.2(a)(iii) then a valuer appointed by the President of the Australian Property Institute Inc, New South Wales Division registered so to act with more than ten (10) years valuing experience and at least five (5) yearsvaluing experience of property in a similar location and of a similar nature as that of the Premises, shall be appointed and shall be instructed to make a determination as to Rent (including a statement as to how the determination was reached) within on month of his appointment and his decision shall be final and binding on the Lessor and Lessee.

(v) Submissions to the Valuer

The Lessor and the Lessee may make submissions to the valuer appointed under this clause which the valuer may or may not take into consideration in making the determination, in the valuer’s absolute discretion.

(vi) Valuer as an expert

Any valuer appointed in accordance with Clause 2.2(a) shall be deemed to be acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator and accordingly the provisions of the Commercial Arbitration Act, 1984 shall not apply.

(vii) Costs

All costs incurred in the determination of the Rent pursuant to this clause shall be borne in equal shares by the Lessor and the Lessee.

(viii) Amount of Rent Payable Until Determination

Until the current market rent is determined, the Lessee must pay to the Lessor the previous year’s annual Rent increased by four percent (4%).

(b) As soon as practicable after 30th day of June in each year, the Lessor will furnish to the Lessee a statement (the “Statement”) giving reasonable details of the Outgoings paid by the Lessor for the preceding twelve (12) month’s period. Except in the case of manifest error notified by either party to the other within fourteen (14) days of the service of the Statement on the Lessee, the Statement shall be conclusive evidence of the matters stated therein.

(i) in respect of any broken period occurring at the commencement of the Lease the Lessee shall pay to the Lessor a proportionate part only of the amount of Outgoings to be reimbursed as aforesaid such proportion being the same proportion as the number of days from the date of commencement of the Lease to the end of the rating year bears to three hundred and sixty five (365) days;

(ii) in respect of any broken period occurring in the last year of the Term or of any extension thereof, the Lessee shall pay to the Lessor a proportionate part only of the amount of the Outgoings to be reimbursed as aforesaid, such proportion being the same proportion as the number of days from the date of commencement of the rating year to the date of termination of the Lease bears to three hundred and sixty five (365) days.

If the whole or any part of the Building shall be destroyed or damaged by fire, flood, lightning, storm, tempest or other disabling cause without any neglect or default on the part of the Lessee so as to render the Building during the Term substantially unfit for the use and occupation of the Lessee or so as to deprive the Lessee of substantial use of the same, then:

(a) The Lessor shall have the option within thirty (30) days after such destruction or damage by notice in writing to the Lessee either to terminate the Lease if it is impracticable or undesirable to restore or rebuild the Building, or to restore or rebuild the Building for a similar use and purpose whether or not the Building is affected or not by such disabling cause, and shall within such period give written notice of its intention to the Lessee.

(b) If the Lessor elects not to restore or rebuild the Premises and the Lessor notifies the Lessee of this, then either party may by notice in writing to the other terminate this Lease by giving not less than seven (7) days notice in writing to the other, in which case no compensation is payable by either party in respect of that termination but such termination shall be without prejudice to the rights of either party in respect of any antecedent breach or nonobservance of any covenant, condition or provision of this Lease.

3.2 Lessee’s Notice to Terminate

In the event that the Lessor does not exercise its option within the thirty (30) day period, then the Lessee may by notice in writing to the Lessor terminate the Lease. No liability shall attach to the Lessor or to the Lessee by reason of a termination pursuant to this clause but such termination shall be without prejudice to the rights of either party in respect of any antecedent breach or non-observance of any covenant, condition or provision of this Lease.

3.3 Termination following Failure to Rebuild

In the event that the Lessor elects to restore and rebuild the Building and has not commenced and continued the rebuilding or restoration within a reasonable time after the event of damage or destruction, and if the Lessee has given notice requesting such repair, then either party may by notice in writing to the other terminate this Lease on giving not less than seven (7) days notice in writing to the other, in which case no compensation is payable by either party in respect of that termination but such termination shall be without prejudice to the rights of either party in respect of any antecedent breach or non-observance of any covenant, condition or provision of this Lease.

3.4 Continued Operation during Rebuilding

The Lessee shall during any period of restoration or rebuilding of the Building or of any part of the Building continue the operation of its business in the Premises so far as it may be reasonably practicable for the Lessee to do so having regard to the nature and extent of the Lessee’s business and the nature and extent of the damage sustained.

3.5 Abatement of Rent

Upon the happening of any such damage or destruction, the Rent and Outgoings (or a proportionate part according to the extent of damage sustained) for the period from the date of damage or destruction and continuing for the period of reconstruction shall abate until the Premises shall have been reinstated or made fit for use and occupation provided that Rent and Outgoings shall not abate if the destruction or damage was caused or contributed to by the Lessee or any person claiming through or under the Lessee and the damage is not covered by insurance of the Building; and if the damage is covered by the insurance of the Building, the Lessee shall be liable for the amount, if any, by which the Rent and Outgoings are greater than the compensation provided under the policies of insurance;

3.6 No Requirement to Rebuild
