Condition in a deed (7)

I believe the answer is:

proviso

(Other definitions for proviso that I've seen before include "Rider" , "Condition attached to an agreement" , "Condition for VIP or so" , "Stipulation (in contract)" , "Condition, qualification" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
