I'm having trouble making a 5 min, resetting timer. Can you help?

I'm trying to edit a script that creates a 5 minute timer on TextLabel on a SurfaceGui on a part. The edit I'm making to the script is to make the timer reset.

Here is the original script-

01local min = 5
02local sec = 0
03local mic = 0
04 
05while true do
06        mic = mic - 2
07        if mic <= -1 then
08            sec = sec - 1
09            mic = 59
10            if sec == -1 then
11                min = min - 1
12                sec = 59
13                if min == -1 then
14                    min = 0
15                    sec = 0
16                    mic = 0
17                end
18            end
19        end
20        if min <= 9 and sec <= 9 and mic <= 9 then
21            script.Parent.Text = "0" ..min.. ":0" ..sec..":0" ..mic
22        elseif min <= 9 and sec <= 9 and mic >= 10 then
23            script.Parent.Text = "0" ..min.. ":0" ..sec..":" ..mic
24        elseif min <= 9 and sec >= 10 and mic <= 9 then
25            script.Parent.Text = "0" ..min.. ":" ..sec..":0" ..mic
26        elseif min <= 9 and sec >= 10 and mic >= 10 then
27            script.Parent.Text = "0" ..min.. ":" ..sec..":" ..mic
28        elseif min >= 10 and sec <= 9 and mic <= 9 then
29            script.Parent.Text = min.. ":0" ..sec..":0" ..mic
30        elseif min >= 10 and sec <= 9 and mic >= 10 then
31            script.Parent.Text = min.. ":0" ..sec..":" ..mic
32        elseif min >= 10 and sec >= 10 and mic <= 9 then
33            script.Parent.Text = min.. ":" ..sec..":0" ..mic
34        elseif min >= 10 and sec >= 10 and mic >= 10 then
35            script.Parent.Text = min.. ":" ..sec..":" ..mic
36        end
37        wait()
38    end
