3. The aforementioned quantities, qualities, and kinds as to the said timber shall be taken as sufficiently accurate for the purpose of this sale, and no contract for the purchase shall be voidable, nor shall the successful purchaser be entitled to any abatement in price, by reason of the said timber being of less quantity, quality, or kind than as stated herein or in any advertisement having reference to the said timber.

4. The promissory notes will be presented at intervals as indicated in the terms of payment, but they may be presented for payment at an earlier date if it is found that more than a due proportion of the timber has been cut, or should any breach of the conditions occur, or if in the opinion of the Conservator the interests of the Crown are being jeopardized.

A return, which must be verified by affidavit, giving the number of logs cut of each species and their contents, must be made quarterly by the licensee each quarter ending on the last day of March, June, September, and December respectively in each year. A return, similarly verified, must be made quarterly on the same dates showing the output of sawn timber of each species.

7. All timber must be cut to the best advantage, and cutting operations must be carried on regularly and generally in a manner approved of by the Conservator of State Forests.

8. The settlement of any disputes shall be effected by the Conservator of State Forests, and there will be a right of appeal to the Commissioner of State Forests, whose decision in all cases shall be final.

9. The Commissioner of State Forests may authorize the laying-down and working of tram-lines through the land by other persons than the licensee.

10. The successful tenderer will be granted a license to cut the timber, the period for which will expire on the 31st December, 1926, and will not be extended. The license will not be transferable except with the consent of the Commissioner of State Forests. Cutting operations must commence within six months of the date of the license.
