Terms of Payment.

Lots 1 and 2.

A marked cheque for one-fifth of the purchase-money, together with half-year's ground rent and £1 1s. license fee, must accompany the tender, and the balance be paid by three equal quarterly payments, the first of which shall be made three months after date of sale.

Terms and Conditions.

1. All instalment-payments shall be secured by “on demand” promissory notes made and endorsed to the satisfaction of the Commissioner of State Forests, and interest at the rate of 1 per cent. per annum in excess of current bank overdraft rates will be charged on all notes overdue from the date of maturity to the date of payment.
2. The right to cut and remove the timber will be sold in accordance with the provisions of the Forests Act, 1921–22, the regulations in force thereunder, and these conditions.
3. The attention of all tenderers is drawn to the fact that the local controlling body may require the successful tenderer to pay any claims or charges which may be made by that body for the maintenance of the road over which the timber may be transported, and before a sawmill license is issued a letter indicating that satisfactory arrangements have been made in this connection must be produced to the undersigned.
4. Intending tenderers are expected to visit the locality and to satisfy themselves in every particular on all matters relative to the sale.
5. Each tenderer must state the total price that he is prepared to pay for each species. The highest or any tender will not necessarily be accepted, and the timber described is submitted for sale subject to the final acceptance of the tender by the Commissioner of State Forests.
6. The right is reserved to the Commissioner of State Forests to withdraw from sale any or all of the said timber either before or after the closing date for receipt of tenders.
7. If no tender is accepted for the timber herein mentioned it will remain open for application at the upset price until further notice.
8. Tenders should be on the special form obtainable from any office of the State Forest Service, and should be enclosed in envelopes addressed “Conservator of Forests, Hokitika,” and endorsed “Tender for Timber.”
   The conditions which will be inserted in the license to be issued to the purchaser, and further particulars, may be obtained on application to the undersigned or to the Director of Forestry, Wellington.
