However, this section does not apply if—
the site agreement provides for 1 or more alternative bases for increasing the site rent; and
the alternative basis, or 1 of the alternative bases, provides for the increase in the site rent by reference to a CPI number.
The park owner may apply to the tribunal, within 2 years after the commencement, for an order to vary the site agreement to provide for another basis for increasing the site rent (a variation order ).
The application—
must state the terms of the variation order sought by the park owner, which must be a basis the park owner considers provides for a fair and reasonable increase in the site rent in the residential park; and
may relate to 1 or more site agreements for the residential park.
