10. The said rights, powers, and privileges may be at any
    time resumed by the Governor-General, and the licensee may
    be required to remove the slipway, at the licensee's cost,
    without payment of any compensation whatever, on giving
    to the licensee three calendar months' previous notice in
    writing. Any such notice shall be sufficient if given by the
    Minister and delivered at or posted to the last known address
    of the licensee in New Zealand.

11. The licensee shall be liable for any injury which the
    said slipway may cause any vessel or boat to sustain through
    any default or neglect on the licensee's part.

12. In case the licensee shall--
    (1.) Commit or suffer a breach of the conditions herein-
    before set forth, or any of them;
    (2.) Cease to use or occupy the said slipway for a period
    of thirty days;
    (3.) Become bankrupt, or be brought under the operation
    of any law for the time being in force relating to
    bankruptcy; or
    (4.) Fail to pay the sums specified in clause 3 of these
    conditions,--
    then and in any of the said cases this Order in Council,
    and every license, right, power, or privilege, may be revoked
    and determined by the Governor-General in Council without
    any notice to the licensee or other proceeding whatsoever;
    and publication in the New Zealand Gazette of an Order in
    Council containing such revocation shall be sufficient notice
    to the licensee, and to all persons concerned or interested,
    that this Order in Council, and the license, rights, and privi-
    leges thereby granted and conferred, have been revoked and
    determined.

13. In the event of this Order in Council being revoked for
    any reason whatsoever, or upon the expiry of the period for
    which the license is granted, the licensee shall, if required by
    the Minister so to do, remove the said slipway entirely from
    the site, and restore the site to its original condition within
    three months from the date of revocation or expiry, as the
    case may be; and, if the licensee fails so to do, the Minister
    may cause the said slipway to be removed and the site so
    restored, and may recover the costs incurred by the said
    removal and restoration from the licensee.

14. The erection of the said slipway shall be sufficient
    evidence of the acceptance by the licensee of the terms and
    conditions of this Order in Council.
