[No. 63

If the rent tendered by two or more persons is of the same amount, and is higher than that offered by other tenderers, the Public Trustee will, after opening all the tenders, decide by lot, in such manner as he thinks fit, which of such persons shall be declared the lessee.

The deposits and fees paid by the unsuccessful tenderers will be returned to them immediately.

If any person declared a lessee fails to execute his lease within thirty days after being required by notice so to do, then his deposit and the above-mentioned sum of £3 3s. will be absolutely forfeited to the Public Trustee, and the right of such person to obtain such lease will absolutely cease and determine.

The lease and the provisions thereof to be executed by the successful tenderer and the Public Trustee are set out in the above-mentioned regulations. Such form of lease has been modified by the insertion therein of provisions with reference to fencing; and the form of lease to be signed with the said modifications can be seen at any of the places above mentioned, where forms of tender can be obtained.

Persons proposing to tender are referred to the above-mentioned Act and regulations, which are to be deemed part of this notice.

If from any cause whatever the Public Trustee is unable to grant a lease of any of the lands above referred to, the successful tenderer shall have no claim for damages or compensation.

The area of each lot is believed to be correctly described in the foregoing list, but if the area is less than that specified in such list the successful tenderer shall be bound to take a lease of such lesser area without any allowance of compensation.

If the area of any lot is larger than that set out in the said list the Public Trustee reserves the right, by notice in writing to the successful tenderers, to annul the contract, but without payment of any compensation or damages whatever.

This notice is to be deemed part of any contract for the grant of a lease of any of the above-mentioned lands to any successful tenderer.
