 Schedule 3 – Market Rent Review 

##This clause only works for MRR at option. Copy an earlier precedent if you need a midterm review. 

 

	1	Interpretation 

 In this Schedule 3: 

current market rent means the open market rental value of the Premises determined using the valuation criteria, described in clause
8 below, at the relevant review date; and 
 review date means the commencing date of the Option Lease. 

 

	2	Review notice 

 We must give you the review notice specifying our reasonable assessment of the
current market rent (review notice) as soon as practical after you exercise the option in clause 18 of the lease. 
  

	3	Reply notice 

 You may respond to the review notice within 28 days after the date on which you
receive it, by notice to us: 
  

	 	(a)	disputing our assessment; and 

  

	 	(b)	stating your assessment of the current market rent, 

 (reply notice). 

If you do not respond to the review notice in the time and manner prescribed by this clause, the Rent on and from the review date, will be the
amount specified in our review notice. 
  

	4	You may initiate 

 If we do not issue a review notice by the commencing date of the Option
Lease, you may initiate the market rent review process by giving us a reply notice in accordance with clause 3 (except that the reply notice need not dispute our assessment). 

 

	5	Appointment of valuers 

 If you give us a reply notice and we cannot agree with you on the
current market rent within 14 days after that notice is given (or longer if mutually agreed in writing) then we will appoint a valuer to determine the current market rent. 

You may appoint a valuer too, provided you do so within 28 days after the date of the review notice or, if there is no review notice, 28 days
after the reply notice.
 If you do not appoint a valuer on time, the valuer appointed by us will determine the current market rent as a
single valuer.

	 	(b)	have regard to either party’s submissions on the current market rent. 

  

	 	(c)	assume the Premises are available for lease for the whole of the Term but commencing on the relevant review date instead of the Commencing Date;
