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 company shall, if required by the Minister so to do, remove the said dolphins 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 company fails so to do, the Minister may cause the said dolphins to be removed and the site so restored, and may recover the costs incurred by the said removal and restoration from the company.

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