Evidence record 03 · public specimen

The answer, the clause and the calculation.

This synthetic lease example exposes the complete evidence chain behind a Sourcetrace answer. It is a capability demonstration, not legal advice or a client case.

Question

When does the option to renew have to be exercised?

Answer

Written notice must be given no earlier than twelve and no later than six months before the term ends. The term ends 30 June 2027, so the notice window runs from 30 June 2026 to 30 December 2026.

123 Collins Street, Lease.pdf

page 14 · clause 12.2(a)

“The Tenant may renew the Lease by giving the Landlord written notice not less than six (6) months and not more than twelve (12) months before the expiry of the Term.”

Calculation

Term end: 30 June 2027. Twelve months before: 30 June 2026. Six months before: 30 December 2026.

Assumptions and review

A reviewer must confirm the term-end definition, amendments, notice mechanics, business-day rules and that the supplied extract is complete before relying on the answer.

Synthetic document name, clause and dates. The evidence chain is the demonstration: answer, source, calculation, assumptions and review boundary remain visible together.

What this proves.

The record demonstrates the output standard for one question. It does not establish legal correctness, portfolio-scale accuracy or a client outcome.

Traceable

No orphan answer

The document, page, clause and supporting words travel with the answer.

Checkable

The arithmetic is exposed

A reviewer can repeat the date calculation rather than trust a hidden process.

Bounded

Reliance remains human

Missing context and legal interpretation are named instead of concealed.
