(One) Preliminary Matters
On recording or registration of this Agreement, the National Park Authority shall issue to the Proprietor the Decision Notice in respect of approval of the application. This Agreement (other than Clause Seven hereof) shall not come into effect until the date the Decision Notice is implemented. The word “implemented” shall be taken in the context 3

(Two) Restriction on Occupancy of the Property
The Proprietor, for herself and her successors in title, hereby undertakes that the Development, once erected, may only be occupied by someone engaged or last engaged full or part time (sufficient to demonstrate a substantive contribution to the occupant’s gainful employment) in crofting work on the Site (that being work of an agricultural nature), and by a dependant of such a person residing with him or her, or by the widow or widower of such person. The term “agricultural” shall be construed according to the definition set out in section 277(1) of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997. In the event that the Proprietor ceases to be engaged in such work for any reason whatsoever, the National Park Authority may determine that some or all of the conditions, restrictions, obligations and others contained in this Agreement may be modified, varied or discharged.

In the event of any loan secured over the Site and any property built thereon being called up by the lender, the Proprietor or her successors in title are under an obligation to give written notification to the National Park Authority of this event.
(Five) Discharge
In the event that the planning permission granted by the Decision Notice is revoked or in any way falls prior to commencement of the construction of the Development, then these presents (other than Clause Seven hereof) shall fall and be deemed pro non scripto and the National Park Authority shall forthwith grant a Discharge of this Agreement. 4
In the event of a change to the planning or other circumstances of the Site, which appears to any party to the Agreement or to their successors in title to render any of the conditions, restrictions, obligations and others contained in this Agreement no longer relevant, the parties or their successors in title shall consider whether the said conditions, restrictions, obligations and others should be modified, varied or discharged.
In considering any such modification, variation or discharge, both parties will be required to act reasonably having regard to said changed circumstances. Any variation shall be effective as from the date of recording of the relevant Deed of Variation in the relative Register of Sasines or Land Register and this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended with effect from such date. The Proprietor shall reimburse the National Park Authority in respect of all reasonable legal expenses incurred by the National Park Authority in connection with such further agreement.
