“(4A)
Where any lessee or licensee has agreed by an agreement for sale and purchase consented to by the Board to transfer at a future date his interest in his lease or licence, then, so long as the agreement for sale and purchase continues in force, both the lessee or licensee and the person to whom he has agreed to transfer his interest shall jointly have all the rights and privileges of the lessee or licensee under the lease or licence, and shall be jointly and severally liable to the Crown for the observance and performance of all the covenants, conditions, and obligations in the lease or licence:
