(a)such proportion of that amount as is determined by agreement between the landlord and the tenant or, in default of agreement, as is determined by a leasehold valuation tribunal to be the proportion which in its opinion would have been determined by an agreement made at the valuation date between the parties on a sale on the open market by a willing seller, or

(b)50 per cent. of that amount,
