3. Long Stop Date and Final Date

3.1 If for any reason the Date of Practical Completion has not occurred by the Long Stop Date (as such date may be extended in accordance with paragraph 3.3) (in respect of which time shall be of the essence but subject to the provisions of paragraph 3.2), then the Tenant may at any time thereafter (provided that at the date of service of such notice the Date of Practical Completion has still not occurred) by notice in writing to the Developer terminate this Agreement.

4. CDM Regulations

The Developer shall, in relation to the Building Works, be the client for the purposes of the CDM Regulations and shall comply with its obligations as such (including ensuring that the health and safety file in relation to the Building Works is maintained correctly and is available for inspection in accordance with the CDM Regulations, until such time as such file may be handed over to the Tenant).

5. Insurance

5.1 The Developer shall:

(a) from the date of commencement on site of the Building Works until the Date of Practical Completion procure that the Building Works are insured in accordance with

(a) to attend site meetings with the Contractor on a monthly basis;

7.1 (a) The Developer shall procure that the Verification Engineer is present at and that the Tenant’s Representative is given not less than five Working Days’ notice of the proposed commencement of any procedures for witnessing and validating the testing and commissioning of the Building Systems and the Tenant’s Representative (and a reasonable number of those authorised by the Tenant) shall be entitled to be present at such witnessing and validating and to make representations to the Verification Engineer in respect of the same.

(b) The Developer and the Tenant shall cooperate so as to ensure the efficient testing and commissioning of the Building Systems in accordance with the Building Contract and the Verification Engineer shall be instructed to monitor and validate the testing procedures to which the Building Systems are subjected and to establish whether those systems are functioning properly throughout the Premises at Practical Completion.

(c) The Developer shall be responsible for the carrying out of all works which prove to be necessary in order for the Building Systems to be commissioned in accordance with the Building Contract as part of the Building Works.

7.2 The Developer shall procure that, as a term of the Appointment of the Employer’s Agent, the Employer’s Agent is required to issue the Practical Completion Certificate but that such certificate shall not be issued unless the Practical Completion Condition set out in clause 7.3 has been satisfied.

7.3 The Practical Completion Condition is that:

(a) the Verification Engineer has provided to the Employer’s Agent, the Developer and the Tenant testing certificates or other confirmation in writing that the Building Systems have been tested and commissioned in accordance with clause 7.1(a) and (b) and are functioning properly throughout the Premises; and

(b) EPCs for the Premises have been provided to the Tenant; and

7.4 The Developer shall procure that the Employer’s Agent gives the Tenant’s Representative not less than ten Working Days’ notice of the date upon which the Employer’s Agent proposes to carry out the Completion Inspection.

7.5 If the Completion Inspection does not take place, or if following the Completion Inspection the Practical Completion Certificate is not issued, the Developer shall procure that notice is again given to the Tenant’s Representative in accordance with paragraph 7.4 before the next Completion Inspection, and this procedure shall be repeated as often as necessary until the Practical Completion Certificate is issued.

7.6 The Developer shall procure that the Employer’s Agent shall have proper regard to any written representations concerning the issue of the Practical Completion Certificate which are

made by the Tenant’s Representative to the Employer’s Agent either at or within two Working Days after the relevant Completion Inspection.

7.7 The decision to issue or not to issue any Practical Completion Certificate shall be in the sole professional discretion of the Employer’s Agent.

7.8 The Developer shall send to the Tenant’s Representative within at least twenty Working days prior to the Completion Inspection a draft Defects List.

7.9 If the Tenant does not agree that Practical Completion has occurred, it may within five Working Days after the occurrence of the relevant Completion Inspection (as to which period time shall be of the essence) refer the matter to the Expert for determination, in which case the following shall apply:

(a) The Expert shall be requested to inspect the Building Works and determine whether the Building Works have been Practically Completed for the purpose of this Agreement. If the Expert decides that Practical Completion has occurred, the Tenant shall pay all the costs of the reference.

(b) If the Expert determines that Practical Completion has not occurred and should not have been certified:

(i) he shall specify what works need to be carried out in order to achieve a state of completion of the Building Works sufficient for a Practical Completion Certificate to be issued with which he would agree (“Remedial Works”);

(ii) the Developer shall immediately commence and diligently proceed to carry out the Remedial Works and any further dispute as to whether they have been (or are being) properly carried out may be referred at any time to the Expert;

(iii) the Developer shall be responsible for all the costs of the reference; and

(iv) upon completion of the Remedial Works, the parties shall agree (or in default of agreement the Expert shall be instructed to confirm) the date upon which the Remedial Works were so completed and the date so agreed or confirmed shall be the date upon which Practical Completion shall be deemed to have taken place for the purposes of this Agreement.

(c) If the Tenant takes occupation of the Premises it may not thereafter dispute (or continue to dispute) the Date of Practical Completion.

7.10 The Developer shall procure that forthwith after Practical Completion of the Building Works:

(a) the Employer’s Agent shall issue the Practical Completion Certificate; and

(b) a copy of such certificate shall be delivered to the Tenant, the Tenant’s Representative and the Tenant’s Solicitors.

7.12 The Tenant shall use reasonable endeavours to notify the Developer of any Defects which the Tenant becomes actually aware of during the Defects Liability Period but without any obligation on the Tenant to make any inspections or investigations in this regard. The Developer shall procure that the Employer’s Agent shall prepare a schedule listing any Defects in the Building Works and shall supply a copy to the Tenant not later than 10 Working Days before the expiry of the Defects Liability Period. The Tenant may not later than five Working Days after receipt of such schedule request the Employer’s Agent to add to it any Defect which the Tenant has observed and the Employer’s Agent shall add such item(s) to the list. The Developer shall procure that any such Defects so notified by the Tenant to the Developer during the Defects Liability Period shall be remedied as soon as reasonably practicable after notification and at times to be agreed with the Tenant.

7.13 If the Tenant is in occupation of the Premises under the provisions of this Agreement after the Date of Practical Completion it shall allow the Developer, the Contractor, the Employer’s Agent and/or their agents or workmen reasonable access to the Premises at a reasonable frequency and on reasonable prior notice for the purpose of inspection or carrying out any works required to be carried out under paragraphs 7.11 or 7.12 above or which may otherwise be required under the terms of the Building Contract or terms of this Agreement, and those taking access shall use reasonable endeavours to procure that as little disturbance is caused as is reasonably practicable and that any damage caused to the Premises or any fixtures and fittings in the Premises is made good forthwith.

4. The Landlord shall not be concerned in the administration and collection of or accounting for the Service Charge on an assignment of this Lease and accordingly the Landlord shall:

“Fixed Charge”		until 24 December 201[2][3] *[Engrossment note: insert year in which Term Commencement Date occurs]* the Initial Charge and thereafter as determined in accordance with paragraph 2 of this Schedule 5;

“Review Date”		the 25th day of December 201[2][3] *[Engrossment note: insert year in which Term Commencement Date occurs]* and every anniversary of that date and the date which is one day before the date on which the Term would expire by effluxion of time (disregarding any statutory continuation thereof);

“Index”		the Index of Retail Prices (All Items) published by H M Government or any equivalent index stated by H M Government to be the official successor to the Index of Retail Prices (All Items) PROVIDED that if the method of computation and/or the reference base of the Index shall materially change after the date of this Lease then the figure deemed to be shown in the Index for the purposes of this Lease after such change shall be the figure which would have been shown in the Index if the method of computation and/or reference base current at the date of this Lease had been retained, and any official reconciliation between such differing methods of computation or reference bases shall be binding on the parties to this Lease;

“Relevant Fraction”		a fraction of which the numerator is the figure of the Index published in the four weeks preceding the relevant Review Date and the denominator is the figure of the Index published in December 2011;

“Expert”

an independent chartered accountant (acting as an expert) being a partner in or a director of a leading firm or company of chartered accountants to be nominated in default of agreement by the Landlord and the Tenant by the President for the time being of the Institution of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales on the application of the Landlord or the Tenant made not more than one month before the relevant Review Date.

2. From and including each Review Date the Fixed Charge shall be whichever is the higher of:

(a) the Fixed Charge which was payable immediately before the relevant Review Date (the “Old Charge”); and

(b) the figure calculated by multiplying the Initial Charge by the Relevant Fraction (the “Revised Charge”).

3. If the Landlord and the Tenant shall fail to agree upon the Revised Charge, then either of them may not more than one month before the relevant Review Date require the Revised Charge to be determined by the Expert.

4. The Expert shall on being appointed invite the Landlord and the Tenant to submit to him within such time limits as he shall consider appropriate (but not being less than 21 days) representations and cross representations as to the calculation of the Revised Charge, supported if they so wish by a statement of reasons and/or schedule of calculations. The Expert shall consider such matters submitted to him but shall not be fettered thereby and shall determine the Revised Charge in accordance with his own knowledge, judgment and opinion having regard to such matters as he may consider appropriate. The Expert’s decision shall (save as to any question of law) be final and binding on all matters referred to him under this Lease.

5. If after the date of this Lease it becomes impossible (because of any change in the methods used to calculate the Index, or for any other reason) to calculate the Revised Charge, then the Expert shall have full power to determine what the increase in the Index would have been had it continued on the same basis as is assumed to be available for the operation of this rent review or (if that determination shall also be impossible) shall determine a reasonable charge having regard to the purposes and intent of this Schedule.

6. If the Expert shall die or be unable or unwilling to accept his appointment or to carry out his functions then either the Landlord or the Tenant may apply for a replacement to be appointed in his stead, and this procedure may be repeated as often as necessary.

7. If at any Review Date there is any statutory restriction upon the review or increase of the Fixed Charge or the Landlord’s right to recover it, then at any time after the lifting, removal or modification of such restriction and prior to the next following Review Date the Landlord may give the Tenant not less than one month’s notice requiring an additional review to take place on a quarter day to be specified in such notice which quarter day shall thereupon be treated for the purposes of this Lease as a Review Date.

8. The costs of the Expert and the parties’ costs of the reference to him shall lie in his award but, in the absence of such award, the Landlord and Tenant shall each bear their own costs and one half of the Expert’s costs. One party may pay the costs required to be borne by another party if they remain unpaid for more than 14 days after they become due, and then recover these and any incidental expenses incurred from that other party on demand.

9. Time is not of the essence in relation to any matter contained in this Schedule.

10. If the Revised Charge has not been ascertained by the relevant Review Date, then the Old Charge shall be payable until such time as the Revised Charge has been ascertained.

11. Once the Revised Charge has been ascertained, the Tenant shall on demand pay the Landlord a sum equal to the amount (if any) by which the Revised Charge exceeds the Old Charge for the period from the relevant Review Date until the next quarter day following the date of such demand together with interest on each quarterly shortfall calculated on a daily basis from the date upon which each instalment of the shortfall would have been payable if the Revised Charge had then been ascertained at the base rate of Barclays Bank plc until seven days after the date of such demand, and thereafter together with interest calculated on a daily basis at the rate referred to in clause 5.1(a).

12. The Landlord and the Tenant may at any time settle the Revised Charge in more than one amount and agree to reserve such amounts increasing in steps until the next Review Date or, if none, until the termination of the Term, or as they may otherwise agree.

13. The parties will procure that a memorandum of the Revised Charge signed by the Landlord and Tenant shall be endorsed on or annexed to this Lease and its counterpart.

(c) any adjustments to the statement required to be made in consequence of the determination of the independent surveyor shall be made and any sum payable to or by the Landlord shall immediately be paid (with interest in respect of the period during which the relevant amount has been underpaid, such interest to be at the base rate for the time being of Barclays Bank PLC or, in the event of such rate ceasing to be published, at such equivalent rate as the Landlord shall notify to the Tenant) or allowed as appropriate;

but if not the Tenant’s right of challenge to that statement shall lapse.

10. The Landlord shall not be concerned in the administration and collection of or accounting for the Utilities Charge on an assignment of this Lease and accordingly the Landlord shall:

10.1 not be required to make any apportionment relative to the assignment; and

10.2 be entitled to deal exclusively with the Tenant in whom this Lease is for the time being vested (and for this purpose in disregard of any assignment which has not been registered in accordance with clause 3.20).
