Clause 4.13(ii) is clear on its face and, properly construed, grants the tenant a right of first refusal upon the landlord informing the tenant in writing of a desire to sell; the landlord breached clause 4.13(ii) by failing to give the required written notification of the sale to Jumbo King, the agent flyer did not satisfy the written-notification requirement, and the registration of the writ as a lis pendens was not a malicious abuse of process; liability for breach is established and damages are to be assessed.
