The court allowed the amendment because the implied term sought was a conventional implication to prevent a party frustrating contractual obligations and was obvious from the pleaded factual background and express lease terms; the existing pleadings already contained particulars of the alleged alterations and regulatory issues, so further particulars were unnecessary, the amendment did not properly amount to an allegation of dishonesty, and in the exercise of judicial discretion leave to amend was granted.
