CONDITIONS OF SALE.

  1. The right to cut and remove the timber on each lot
    will be sold generally in accordance with the provisions of
    the Land Act, 1908, the timber regulations made there-
    under, and the following conditions, and may contain
    such additional conditions as the Commissioner in his
    discretion considers necessary in the interests of the Crown
    or of the public.

  2. The quantities of the various timbers set forth in
    the above Schedule are approximate only, and are fur-
    nished for the information of intending purchasers, who are
    expected, previous to the sale, to make their own estimate
    of the quantity of timber on each lot. No contract for
    purchase shall be voidable, nor shall the licensee be en-
    titled to any abatement in price, by reason of the said
    timber being of less quantity, quality, and kind than as
    stated herein, nor shall any extra sum be claimed by the
    Crown if for any reason the quantity of timber is found
    to be in excess of that stated herein.

  3. The successful bidder shall purchase the whole of the
    timber in a lot, and shall, on the fall of the hammer, pay
    in cash a deposit of 10 per centum of the amount bid, to-
    gether with £1 1s. license fee, and shall also deposit eight
    promissory notes, each for one-eighth of the balance of
    purchase-money, each payable on demand, and indorsed
    by two persons to be approved by the Commissioner.
    These promissory notes will be presented, the first at an
    interval of nine months from the date of sale, and the
    others at subsequent intervals of six months, but they
    may be presented for payment at earlier dates if more than
    a due proportion of timber is found to be cut, or should
    any breach of the conditions occur, or if in the opinion of
    the Commissioner the interest of the Crown is jeopardized.

  4. The purchaser of each lot shall have the right to cut
    all timber thereon during a period of five years from the
    date of sale. The license shall be only for the cutting
    and removal of the timber, and shall give no right to the
    use of the land.

  5. The timber in each lot shall be cut in a face, and the
    Crown reserves the right of following up the mill-workings
    by felling and grassing such areas as from time to time
