partners thereof at their principal place of business or at the Premises and (in any other case) to the Tenant at the Premises. Any notice to the Landlord (if an incorporated body) shall be sufficiently served if sent by recorded delivery post to
its principal or registered office (or to such other address as it may intimate from time to time for the receipt of notices) or (if the Landlord shall be a person other than an incorporated body) shall be sufficiently served if sent by recorded
delivery post to its last known address in Great Britain or Northern Ireland. Any notice sent by first class recorded delivery post shall in the absence of evidence to the contrary be deemed to have been duly served at the expiry of 2 Working Days

the insurance proceeds shall belong to the Landlord. 

  

	 	6.5.	In the event that Uninsured Risk Damage occurs then clause 6.4.1 of the Lease shall apply. 

  

	 	6.6.	Within nine months after the date of such Uninsured Risk Damage the Landlord shall be obliged to give written notice to the Tenant (such notice herein referred to as an “Election Notice”) stating whether or
not the Landlord proposes to procure the rebuilding or reinstatement of the Premises; 

  

	 	6.7.	If the Election Notice states that the Landlord proposes to rebuild or reinstate as aforesaid, then for all the purposes of this Lease, the Uninsured Risk Damage shall be deemed to have been caused by one of the Insured
Risks and the provisions of clause 6.5 and clause 8.2 shall apply. 

  

	 	6.8.	If the Election Notice states that the Landlord does not propose to rebuild or reinstate as aforesaid, or if no Election Notice is served strictly within the period of nine months referred to above, then either the
Landlord or the Tenant may determine this Lease (without penalty) by serving upon the other not less than one month’s notice in writing to the other to that effect (but such determination notice may only be served prior to the Premise’s
being rendered fit for and capable of beneficial occupation and use), but that without prejudice to any claim by either the Landlord or the Tenant against the other in respect of any antecedent breach of their respective obligations hereunder.

  

	 	6.9.	Compensation on Vacating

loss of rent insurance more particularly specified in clause 5.4.2 and against public liability relating to the Premises and subject to obtaining all necessary planning consents and all other necessary licences, approvals and consents which the

monies out of its own monies (but not in any case so as to provide accommodation identical in layout if it would not be reasonably practicable so to do so long as similar accommodation provided is) save that the Landlord shall not be obliged to lay
out or procure the laying out of the proceeds of such insurance if:- 
  

	 	8.2.1.	such rebuilding, repairing or reinstating of the whole or any part of the Premises is rendered impossible by external causes beyond the control of the Landlord and in that event it is hereby agreed and declared that the
whole of such proceeds shall then belong to the Landlord; or 

  

	 	8.2.2.	payment of any insurance monies shall be properly refused by reason of any act, neglect, default or omission of the Tenant, any sub-tenant or their respective servants, agents,
invitees or licensees or any other persons for whom the Tenant is legally responsible or if the Tenant shall have failed to pay the insurance expense referred to in clause 5.4.6. 

The Landlord shall use reasonable endeavours to ensure that the Tenant’s interest is noted on the insurance policy and a waiver of
subrogation rights is obtained
