accordance with this Act, shall be entitled to obtain from 

 the county court a charge on the holding, or any part 

 thereof, to the amount of the sum so paid or expended. 



The court shall, on proof of the payment or expenditure, 

 and on being satisfied of the observance in good faith by 

 the parties of the conditions imposed by this Act, make an 

 order charging the holding, or any part thereof, with re- 

 payment of the amount paid or expended, with such 

 interest, and by such instalments, and with such directions 

 for giving effect to the charge, as the court thinks fit. 



But where the landlord obtaining the charge is not 

 absolute owner of the holding for his own benefit, no 

 instalment or interest shall be made payable after the time 

 when the improvement in respect whereof compensation is 

 paid will, where an award has been made, be taken to have 

 been exhausted according to the declaration of the award, 

 and in any other case after the time when any such im- 

 provement will, in the opinion of the court, after hearing 

 such evidence, if any, as it thinks expedient, have become 

 exhausted. 



The instalments and interest shall be charged in favour 

 of the landlord, his executors, administrators, and assigns. 



The estate or interest of any landlord holding for an 

 estate or interest determinable or liable to forfeiture by 

 reason of his creating or suffering any charge thereon, or 

 disentitling himself to receive the income thereof, shall not 

 be determined or forfeited by reason of his obtaining or 

 giving a charge or agreeing for any reduction of rent under 

 this Act, anything in any deed, will, or other instrument to 

 the contrary thereof notwithstanding.
