The Tenant must pay the rent set out in item 10 to the Landlord in equal monthly instalments in advance and on or before the first day of each month.

 

10.                     Market rent review

The Valuer must decide the new rent based on the current market rent.

 

8


 

10.4              New rent applies from the Market Review Date

 

The Tenant must pay the new rent from the Market Review Date. Until any dispute is resolved or a right is lost, the Tenant must pay the old rent. Any adjustment will be calculated from the Market Review Date and made when the Tenant’s next monthly payment is due.

 

10.5              Valuer’s decision

 

The Valuer will act as an independent expert and not as an arbitrator. He or she must:

 

(a)                        give his or her decision in writing;

 

(b)                        give detailed reasons for his or her decision; and

 

(c)                         specify the matters to which he or she had regard in making the decision.

 

10.6              Valuing the current market rent

 

In the valuation the current market rent is to be taken as the rent obtainable at the time of the review in a free and open market, between a willing landlord and a willing tenant in an arm’s length transaction, having regard to these matters:

 

(a)                       the provisions of this Lease;

 

(b)                       the rent that would reasonably be expected to be paid for the Premises if they were unoccupied and offered for lease for the same, or a substantially similar, use to that set out in item 12;

 

(c)                        the Landlord’s outgoings to the extent to which the Tenant is liable to contribute to those outgoings.

 

(d)                       rent concessions and other benefits offered to prospective tenants of unoccupied premises,

10.7              The Valuer’s costs

 

The Tenant and the Landlord must share the Valuer’s costs equally.

 

11.                     Rent review

 

11.1              Formula for CPI rent increases

 

If item 10 or item 16 says the rent for any year is to be increased by CPI the rent will be increased on and as at the first day of that year (CPI Review Date) to a new rent calculated using the formula:

 

 

 

 

 

NMR = CMR x
