(3) The undertaker may grant on such terms and conditions as it thinks fit to any person or take from any person a lease, licence or any other interest in or right over any land, including land comprising or comprised in the new crossing, if it appears to the undertaker expedient to do so for the purpose of or in connection with the exercise by that person of any or all of the authorised activities.
(4) The exercise of the powers of any enactment by any person in pursuance of any agreement under paragraph (1), or any sale, lease, charge or disposal under paragraph (2), shall be subject to the same restrictions, liabilities and obligations as would apply under this Order if those powers were exercised by the undertaker.
