landlord.
(2) The reversion is redeemable:
(i) For a sum equal to the annual rent reserved multiplied by:

was executed from April 8, 1884 to April 5, 1888, both inclusive;
2. 8.33, which is capitalization at 12 percent, if the lease

executed on or after July 1, 1982 or between July 1, 1969 and July 1, 1971, the
reversion is redeemable at the expiration of 5 years from the date of the lease. If the
lease is executed before July 1, 1969, the reversion is redeemable at any time.
(d) ] If a tenant has power to redeem the reversion from a trustee or other
person who does not have a power of sale, the reversion nevertheless may be redeemed
in accordance with the procedures prescribed in the Maryland Rules.
