guarantees to the Client for 20 years from the end of the month

Property well repaired
and maintained, upon production
of this Guarantee, the survey report (including any drawings)

continuation in accordance
with its original terms and
conditions.
3. This

current transfer
administration fee within 90
days of the transfer of ownership.
5. Peter Cox Ltd undertakes to
deal with any claim under its Guarantee promptly and fairly;
this Guarantee is in
addition to the Common Law and
Statutory Rights of the client which shall remain unaffected. |
