	 	 	 	 	D=
	 	the total lettable area of the BUILDING less the lettable areas of the
PREMISES serviced by sub-meters.

PROPERTY being increased during the LEASE PERIOD as a result of
an increase in the tariff, a re-evaluation
of the PROPERTY or any other increase, the monthly rental shall
increase from the date on which such
increase becomes effective. The LESSOR shall calculate the
additional monthly rental which the LESSEE
shall pay as a result of the increase by multiplying the annual
increase by the percentage indicated against
“LESSEE’s contribution to increase (per month)” in the AGREEMENT
and dividing it by twelve (12). (The pro

	 	 	 	The LESSEE shall pay a pro rata portion of any costs which the
LESSOR may incur in an attempt to obtain a reduction in
respect of PROPERTY rates from the local authority. The LESSOR
shall calculate the pro rata portion by multiplying the total
costs by the percentage indicated against “LESSEE’s
contribution to increases (per month)” in the AGREEMENT.
	 
	 	5.2	 	The LESSOR shall advise the LESSEE in writing of any
increase in rental payable by the LESSEE to the
LESSOR pursuant to the provisions of sub-clause 5.1 above, whether with retro-active effect or not. In the
event of any Stamp Duty being payable to the Receiver of Revenue in respect of such written notice, the
LESSEE shall be liable for payment thereof to the LESSOR on demand.
	 
	 	5.3	 	The provisions of sub-clauses. 5.1 and 5.2 above shall mutatis mutandis apply to any increase in respect of
assessment rates and taxes, and other rates referred to in sub-clause 5.1 of which the LESSOR receives

thereof. Such costs will be limited to a maximum
of 3% of the lease amount per month.




	6.	 	DEFAULT IN PAYMENT OF AMOUNTS DUE




	 	6.1	 	If the LESSEE fails to pay the rental or any other amount for which he is liable in terms of this AGREEMENT
on the due date for such payment, the LESSOR may charge interest on the total amount outstanding from
time to time at a rate equal to the prime lending rate of the First
National Bank South Africa applicable from



 






 







	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	
3
	 	ANNEXURE A




	 	 	 	time to time plus three percent (3%). Interest will be
calculated on each amount from and including the due date for
payment thereof until such amount has been paid in full. If
interest is raised by the LESSOR then any payment made by the
LESSEE shall firstly be utilised in payment of interest and any
balance remaining in reduction in full or in part of the amount
in arrears. Any excess payment shall thereafter be credited to
the current liability of the LESSEE.
	 
	 	6.2	 	If the LESSEE fails timeously to pay any amount for which he
is liable to a local authority or any other party
direct, the LESSOR may on behalf of the LESSEE pay such account and recover that amount together with
interest thereon calculated as set out above.
	 
	 	6.3	 	Failure by the LESSOR to charge interest on any amount in arrears shall in no way prejudice or affect the right
of the LESSOR to charge such interest, whether with retro-active effect or not, at any time thereafter.
	 
	 	6.4	 	Where a reduction in rental has been granted by the LESSOR to the LESSEE, the full amount of such
reduction shall become due upon default by the LESSEE. Reduction
shall include any rebate or credit
arrangements or similar grants.




	7.	 	CANCELLATION OF AGREEMENT OF LEASE




	 	7.1	 	Should the LESSEE fail and/or refuse to effect payment of
rental and/or any other amount payable by the
LESSEE in terms of this AGREEMENT on the due date for payment thereof and/or breach or allow any breach
of any other provision hereof or commit an act of insolvency, the LESSOR shall be entitled, after having given
the LESSEE written notice of the LESSEE’s failure and/or breach aforesaid and demanding payment of the
amount in arrears and/or a remedy of breach and the LESSEE fails and/or refuses to pay the amount in
arrears and/or remedy the breach within 30 (thirty) days after receipt of such notice, to forthwith cancel this
AGREEMENT and to take occupation of the PREMISES without prejudice to any of the LESSOR’s rights in
terms of this AGREEMENT, common law or legislation.
	 
	 	7.2	 	Should the LESSOR cancel this AGREEMENT pursuant to the provisions of sub-clause 7.1 above and the
LESSEE contest the LESSOR’s right so to cancel, the LESSEE shall continue to perform strictly in
accordance with the provisions of this AGREEMENT pending the outcome of the dispute, whether by way of
negotiation or by way of litigation, provided that the LESSEE’s continued occupation of the PREMISES and
performance in terms hereof and, in particular, acceptance by the LESSOR of any payments made by the
LESSEE, shall in no way prejudice or affect the LESSOR’s claim for cancellation which is in dispute.
	 
	 	7.3	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph 7.1, should the LESSEE persist with late payments in respect of the
monthly rental and other charges aforesaid on more than two (2) occasions during the currency of this Lease
or any extension thereof, then the LESSOR shall have the right without further notice to cancel this
AGREEMENT with reservation of all the LESSOR’s other rights in terms of this AGREEMENT and the
common law.
	 
	 	7.4	 	Should the LESSOR cancel this AGREEMENT pursuant to a breach by the LESSEE, irrespective of the
nature and extent of such breach, the LESSEE shall, and the LESSEE hereby accepts liability, pay to the
LESSOR, over and above any rental and other monies which may be in arrears in terms of this AGREEMENT
as at date of cancellation, an amount equal to




	 	7.4.1	 	rental which the LESSOR would otherwise have received from the LESSEE in terms of this
AGREEMENT for the period reckoned from the date of cancellation to the date upon which the
PREMISES is re-let or the date upon which the LEASE PERIOD would have expired in the normal
course of events, whichever is the earlier;
	 
	 	7.4.2	 	the difference between the rental and other monies which the LESSOR would have received from
the LESSEE in terms hereof and the rental and other monies which the LESSOR will receive from
the new lessee calculated from date of commencement of the new lease to the date upon which the

other monies receivable in terms of the new lease are less than the rental and other monies which
the LESSEE would have had to pay;
	 
	 	7.4.3	 	a pro rata portion of agent’s commission which the LESSOR may have to pay to any estate agent
based on rental receivable as a result of the conclusion of

to be borne by LESSOR, whether partially or in full, to

water consumed on the PROPERTY save where water
consumed on the PREMISES is measured by a sub-meter. The LESSEE shall monthly pay the cost of his
water consumption according to the sub-meter to the LESSOR. Should the water consumption on the
PREMISES, in the opinion of the LESSOR, be more than normal, the LESSOR may install a sub-meter on the
PREMISES at the expense of the LESSEE to measure the consumption of water on the PREMISES. Should
a sub-meter be installed in respect of the PREMISES in terms of this sub-clause, the LESSEE shall monthly
pay the cost of the water consumed on the PREMISES to the LESSOR. The cost shall be calculated on the
same tariff and levies, which the LESSEE would pay if the supplier supplies the water to him direct.
	 
	 	9.2	 	Notwithstanding 9.1 above and if applicable the LESSEE shall contribute to the LESSOR’s costs in respect of
the monthly consumption of water on the PROPERTY in an amount equivalent to the percentage stated in the

the AGREEMENT and for no other purpose

withheld. The LESSEE shall keep the PREMISES open for business during the normal business hours which
apply in the relevant municipal area for the type of business conducted by the LESSEE.
	 
	 	10.2	 	The LESSEE may not -

LESSOR being had and obtained, permit any sale by public auction
on the PREMISES.

	 	 	For the duration of this AGREEMENT all furniture, fittings and fixtures,
equipment, stock, etc., brought onto the PREMISES shall be subject to the LESSOR’s hypothec and shall serve as

	12.	 	DEFECTS
	 
	 	 	Should the LESSEE on taking occupation of the PREMISES find any of the
keys, locks, doors, windows, wash-basins, taps, sanitary conveniences,
drains or down-pipes, electrical or other equipment of the PREMISES in
disrepair, the LESSEE shall notify the LESSOR in writing of all
defects within Forty Five (45) days of taking occupation and the
LESSOR shall take all reasonable steps to repair such defects as soon
as possible. Should the LESSEE fail to give such notice to the LESSOR
the LESSEE shall be deemed to have acknowledged that on taking
occupation of the PREMISES the aforesaid items were received in good
order and condition.
	 
	13.	 	MAINTENANCE




	 	13.1	 	The LESSEE shall keep the interior of the PREMISES in good
order and condition and hereby acknowledges,
subject to the provisions of clause 12 above, that, on taking
occupation, he received the PREMISES in a good
and clean condition and free of insects and rodents. The
LESSEE undertakes to leave the PREMISES in the
same good order and condition, fair wear and tear excepted, on
expiration, or prior termination of this
AGREEMENT or the eventual vacation thereof. The LESSOR will be
responsible for all maintenance to the
exterior of the premises.
	 
	 	13.2	 	If the LESSEE fails to leave the PREMISES in the condition
contemplated in sub-clause 13.1 at the expiration
or prior termination of this AGREEMENT or the eventual vacation thereof, the LESSOR may have the
necessary repairs effected or other work done to restore the PREMISES to the condition contemplated in sub-
clause 13.1, only if the Lessee elects not to do so. The LESSEE shall forthwith on demand pay to the
LESSOR all costs incurred or which may have to be incurred in terms of this sub-clause. A certificate signed
by an authorised representative of the LESSOR stating the amount of the costs aforementioned (or the
anticipated costs to be incurred), shall be prima facie proof of the amount due and payable by the LESSEE to
the LESSOR. This provision shall not in any way prejudice the LESSOR’s rights pursuant to sub-clause 13.3
below.
	 
	 	13.3	 	If the LESSOR is prevented from letting the PREMISES due to the fact that repairs are being done to the
PREMISES in terms of sub-clause 13.2, the LESSEE shall, not withstanding termination of this AGREEMENT,
pay to the LESSOR an amount equal to the monthly rental and other monies (e.g. increase in rates and taxes,
sanitation fees, etc.) which the LESSEE would have had to pay to the LESSOR had this AGREEMENT not
been cancelled, multiplied with the period expressed in months during which the LESSOR is prevented from
letting the PREMISES as a result of the work and repairs being done to the PREMISES.
	 
	 	13.4	 	The LESSEE shall not without the LESSOR’s prior written consent being had and obtained, which consent

	 	14.1	 	The LESSEE may not effect any alterations and/or
additions to the PREMISES without the prior written consent of the
LESSOR being had and obtained, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. In the
event of alterations and/or additions the LESSEE shall at the
expiration or prior termination of this

	 	ANNEXURE A




	 	 	 	AGREEMENT, repair and/or remove such alterations and/or additions
and restore the PREMISES to the condition in which it was prior to
such alterations and/or additions, fair wear and tear excepted.
Should alterations and/or additions agreed to by the LESSOR not be
defined in an annexure to this AGREEMENT which has been signed or
initialed by all the parties to this AGREEMENT, such written
consent shall serve as prima facie proof of the alterations and/or
additions agreed to by the LESSOR.
	 
	 	14.2	 	In effecting alterations, the LESSEE shall ensure that




	 
	 	14.2.1	 	the walls, floors and ceilings of the PREMISES are not damaged in anyway;
	 	 	 	 
	 	14.2.2	 	the electrical wiring installed to light the PREMISES is not used for any other purpose;
	 
	 	14.2.3	 	the electric outlets or electric wiring is used solely for the purpose to supply power to normal

outlet. For any deviation from this
stipulation the LESSEE shall first obtain the written consent
of the LESSOR, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld, prior to any deviation from the
aforegoing.




	 	14.3	 	Should consent be given pursuant to sub-clause 14.2.3 the
alterations or use shall nevertheless be effected
strictly in accordance with the reasonable requirements and conditions imposed or which may be imposed by

PREMISES, fails to remove and/or repair, to the reasonable satisfaction of the LESSOR, the alterations and/or
additions to the PREMISES in terms of sub-clause 14.1, the LESSOR may repair and/or remove the
alterations and/or additions at the LESSEE’s expense. Any additions thus removed shall become the
PROPERTY of the LESSOR without any obligation to compensate the LESSEE therefor. The Lessee shall
have the right to remove any corporate image items and the LESSEE’S corporate signage will remain its
property.
	 
	 	14.6	 	The LESSEE shall forthwith on demand pay to the LESSOR the amount for expenditure to be incurred by the
LESSOR for the removal and/or repairs referred to in sub-clause 14.5. A certificate signed by the LESSOR
and in which the amount of expenses or expected expenses is stated, shall be prima facie proof of the amount
due and payable by the LESSEE. This provision shall not prejudice the LESSOR’s right to claim damages for
loss of rental from the LESSEE if the PREMISES on vacation cannot be let because the alterations and/or
repairs have not yet been effected to the satisfaction of the LESSOR.
	 
	 	14.7	 	The LESSEE may under no circumstances without the prior written consent of the LESSOR being had and

LESSOR may decide is suitable and at the expense of tenants (allocated
on a pro rata share to each tenant’s sign), provide name-boards at or
near the entrances on the ground floor and on each floor and on which
the names of the tenants and their professions are stated.
	 
	 	 	The LESSEE shall be entitled to have a name-plate or other form of
identification fixed to the main entrance to the PREMISES provided that
the LESSOR has approved such name-plate or other form of identification.
The LESSOR shall affix such name-plate or other form of identification
at the expense of the LESSEE. Any name-plate affixed at the expense of
the LESSEE, shall become and remain the property and the responsibility
of the LESSEE.
	 
	 	 	The LESSEE shall not be entitled to hang any curtains or place or erect
any blinds of whatever nature in the PREMISES
and/or any other part of the BUILDING without the prior approval of the
LESSOR being had and obtained, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld.
	 
	 	 	Should the LESSEE place or affix any of the abovementioned in or on the
PREMISES or the BUILDING without the prior
written consent of the LESSOR being had and obtained, the LESSOR has the
right, without prejudice to any other rights of the LESSOR in terms of
this AGREEMENT, to remove same at the expense of the LESSEE.
