If the lessee shall agree with the Board’s decision, the same shall be carried into effect by a memorandum in writing, to be indorsed on his lease under the hand and seal of the Public Trustee, and on the counterpart thereof under the hand of the lessee. Such memorandum shall be in the form contained in the Second Schedule hereto, and shall be registered by the District Land Registrar of the district, at the expense of the applicant, by indorsing a copy thereof on the duplicate lease recorded in his office.

  2. If the lessee shall not agree to the reduction offered, the application made by him shall ipso facto determine and be at an end.

  3. The period for which such reduction of rent, if and when made, shall last shall be in the discretion of the Board.

  4. It shall be lawful for the Board, in case they shall consider it expedient so to do, and after such reference and inquiries and report as hereinbefore mentioned, to defer payment of not more than one year’s rent, and to make the same payable, with interest thereon at the rate of five pounds per centum per annum, either by instalments or otherwise, at any time or times during the currency of the lease that the Board may think fit.

  5. From and after the date of these regulations the proviso in the several leases already issued whereby the lessor may charge to and recover from the lessee interest at the rate of fifteen pounds per centum per annum on all overdue rent shall be read as if the words “five pounds” were inserted therein in lieu of the words “fifteen pounds.”
