(2)Where land demised by a lease is held by more than one person each of whom is a person to whom section 1 applies and the rent reserved by the lease is being paid to the lessor by one only of the persons, that person shall be entitled to have the rent apportioned between the part of the land held by him and the part of the land held by each such other person who is liable for the payment of part of the rent to the person so entitled.

(3)Where a rent reserved by a lease is apportioned under this Act between different parts of the land demised by the lease—

(a)any such part shall be subject to the payment to the lessor only of the portion of the rent apportioned in respect thereof and shall not be subject to the payment to any other person of any portion of the rent; and

(b)any such part shall be subject only to the performance and observance of the covenants and conditions contained in the lease in so far as they are applicable to that part and not otherwise, in the same manner as if that part only were demised by the lease subject to the apportioned rent and subject to the performance and observance of the covenants and conditions aforesaid.

(a)a fine, or payment in the nature of a fine, shall not be charged or payable for or in respect of the apportionment;
