A fairer approach might be to auction the time. i.e. each player bids on number of minutes (or perhaps 10 second intervals?), the highest bid takes black with the win-on-draw condition and that many minutes taken from the 5 minute time.

Or similarly, employ "I cut you choose": one player chooses the time limit for black, the other then selects which color they want.
