    (9) If the Minister and the Licensee fail to agree on the value of any petroleum delivered to the Minister in pursuance of clause 11 of this licence, it shall be ascertained on such basis as the Minister may specify as fair in a notice in writing given by him to the Licensee.

    (3) The Licensee shall, when he delivers a statement to the Minister in pursuance of paragraph (1) of this clause for a chargeable period in respect of which royalty is payable in pursuance of clause 9(1A) of this licence, make to the Minister a payment on account of royalty for that period equal to the amount which would be so payable for that period if the royalty so payable for that period fell to be determined by reference to the amounts specified in the statement and the amount which, by virtue of paragraph 2(2)(d)(ii) of Schedule 2 to the Oil Taxation Act 1975, was specified in the statement delivered to the Minister in pursuance of paragraph (1) of this clause in respect of the preceding chargeable period; but the Licensee may reduce the amount of the payment as mentioned in paragraph (2) of this clause.

    (4) The Minister shall make to the Licensee payments equal to the amounts by which in consequence of paragraph (1A) of clause 9 of this licence, deductions which the Licensee was entitled to make in pursuance of paragraph 3(2) of Schedule 2 to this licence fall short of the deductions which the Licensee would have been so entitled to make if royalty were only payable in pursuance of paragraph (1) of that clause and paragraph (1A) of it were omitted and payments by the Minister in pursuance of this paragraph shall be made as soon as the amounts of the relevant deductions have been determined.

    (5) The Minister may from time to time, after a statement in respect of any chargeable period has been delivered to him in pursuance of paragraph (1) of this clause and before he has given to the Licensee a notice in pursuance of paragraph (6) of this clause in respect of that period, give a notice in writing to the Licensee specifying the amount which the Minister estimates is payable by the Licensee in pursuance of clause 9 of this licence in respect of that period; and where the amount specified in the notice is larger or smaller than the total amount already paid by the Licensee in pursuance of this clause in respect of that period, then - 

(a) if it is larger the difference shall be paid forthwith by the Licensee to the Minister; and

(b) if it is smaller the difference shall be paid forthwith by the Minister to the Licensee.

    (6) When it appears to the Minister that the value of the petroleum relating to any chargeable period has been finally determined for tax purposes he may give to the Licensee a notice in writing specifying the amount which the Minister considers is payable by the Licensee in pursuance of clause 9 of this licence in respect of that period; and where the amount specified in the notice is larger or smaller than the total amount already paid by the Licensee in pursuance of this clause in respect of that period, then, subject to paragraph (8) of this clause - 

(a) if it is larger the difference shall be paid forthwith by the Licensee to the Minister; and

(b) if it is smaller the difference shall be paid forthwith by the Minister to the Licensee.

    (7) If after the date when the Minister gave notice to the Licensee in pursuance of paragraph (6) of this clause or this paragraph in respect of a chargeable period it appears to the Minister, in consequence of a relevant assessment or determination made after that date which relates directly or indirectly to the value of petroleum by reference to which the amount specified in the notice was determined that another amount ought to have been so specified, he may give notice in writing to the Licensee specifying the other amount; and where he does so, then, subject to paragraph (8) of this clause - 

(a) if the other amount is larger than the total amount already paid by the Licensee in pursuance of this clause in respect of that period, the difference shall be paid forthwith by the Licensee to the Minister; and

(b) if it is smaller, the difference shall be paid forthwith by the Minister to the Licensee.

    (7A) If, after the date when the Minister gave notice to the Licensee in pursuance of paragraph (6) of this clause or this paragraph in respect of a chargeable period, it appears to the Minister that as a result of costs incurred after the end of the period there is an increase in the sum to be taken into account by virtue of clause 9(5)(b) of this licence, and accordingly a reduction in the amount payable by the Licensee in respect of that period, he may give notice in writing to the Licensee specifying the reduced amount; and where he does so he shall forthwith pay to the Licensee an amount equal to the difference between the reduced amount and the total amount already paid by the Licensee in pursuance of this clause in respect of the period.

    (8) A decision made by the Minister for the purposes of paragraph (5), (6), (7) or (7A) of this clause shall not be called in question by the Licensee except that any dispute between the Minister and the Licensee as to whether an amount specified in a notice given in pursuance of the said paragraph (6), (7) or (7A) is payable by virtue of clause 9 of this licence may, during the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which the Licensee receives the notice, be referred to arbitration in the manner provided by clause 40 of this licence; and on a reference to arbitration in pursuance of this paragraph any relevant assessment or determination for the time being in force shall be binding on the Minister and the Licensee so far as the assessment or determination relates directly or indirectly to the value of petroleum relating to the chargeable period in question.

    (9) An amount in respect of interest shall be payable when a notice is given under paragraph (5), (6), (7) or (7A) of this clause, and that amount shall be calculated in such manner as the Minister may specify from time to time in a notice in writing given by him to the Licensee; but - 

(a) a notice in pursuance of this paragraph shall provide for amounts by way of interest to be calculated by applying a rate of interest which is for the time being a commercial rate of interest;

(b) any such amount in respect of interest shall be disregarded in calculating for the purposes of paragraph (5), (6), (7) or (7A) of this clause any amount already paid by the Licensee in pursuance of this clause;

(c) where costs of the kind mentioned in clause 9(7A)(b) of this licence are taken into account, they shall not affect the amount of interest payable in respect of any period ending earlier two months after the chargeable period in which they were incurred.

    (9A) If a payment is made by the Minister in pursuance of clause 9A of this licence more than two months after the end of the chargeable period to which the payment relates, an amount in respect of interest on the payment from the end of those two months shall also be payable by him to the Licensee.

    (9B) Interest under paragraph (9A) of this clause shall be calculated in such manner as the Minister may specify from time to time in a notice in writing given by him to the Licensee (but sub-paragraph (a) of paragraph (9) of this clause shall apply to such a notice as it applies to a notice under paragraph (9)).

    (10) In this clause "relevant assessment or determination" means an assessment or determination made by the Commissioners of Inland Revenue for the purposes of petroleum revenue tax, income tax or the charge of corporation tax on income or a determination made in proceedings arising out of such an assessment or determination made by the said Commissioners.

    (11) For the purposes of this clause any amount paid by the Licensee or the Minister on account of a prospective liability under paragraph (5), (6), (7) or (7A) of this clause shall be treated as paid in pursuance of that paragraph.
