Page 10

(i) that the sale of the Property constitutes a TOGC and accordingly no VAT will be charged on the Price at Completion and no VAT will form part of the Completion Payment;

(ii) that the business of letting the Property for a consideration is capable of being operated separately as a business; and

(iii) to use all reasonable endeavours both before and after Completion to procure that the sale of the Property is treated by HMRC as a TOGC.

(i) Xxxxxxxxxx's interest in the Property is as owner of a 50% share in the beneficial ownership only, with legal title to the Property being vested in the Seller.

(iii) the Seller and Larchfield have jointly exercised pursuant to the VAT Act, Schedule 10, paragraph 2 (or been treated pursuant to the VAT Act, Schedule 10, paragraph 21 as having exercised) an option to tax in respect of the Property and have duly notified that option to HMRC to the extent required in order to make it effective;

(iv) the Seller and Xxxxxxxxxx have not revoked, and will not revoke before Completion, their option and, where such option is treated as having been exercised as a result of a real estate election having been made, will not prior to Completion take any action, or omit to take any action, by virtue of which HMRC could revoke such real estate election;

(v) the assets to be transferred to the Purchaser in terms of the Missives have been and will, in the period up to Completion, be used continuously for the Seller's and Xxxxxxxxxx's business comprising the letting of and the collection of rents from property and such assets are the only assets in the business to be transferred; and

Page 11

(vi) at Completion the Seller, Xxxxxxxxxx and the Tenants will not be members of the same VAT Group.

The Seller has exhibited evidence of the matters stated in clauses 3.1.2(i) and 3.1.2(iii), and the Purchaser shall be deemed to have satisfied itself with such evidence.

3.1.3 The Purchaser has exhibited evidence to the Seller that:

(i) it (or the representative member of its VAT Group) will be registered or liable to be registered for the purposes of VAT at Completion;

(ii) it has :

(ii)(a) exercised an option to tax in respect of the Property under the VAT Act, Schedule 10, paragraph 2 or make a real estate election under the VAT Act, Schedule 10, paragraph 21; and

(ii)(b) duly notified such option to tax or real estate election (as the case may be) to HMRC,

in either case, so as to ensure that the conditions in Article 5(2A) of the Value Added Tax (Special Provisions) Order 1995 will be satisfied in respect of the Purchaser's acquisition of the Property from the Seller;

(iii) it (or such other person referred to in clause 3.1.3(ii)) will not revoke its option either before or after Completion and, where such option is treated as having been exercised as a result of a real estate election having been made, will not take any action, or omit to take any action, by virtue of which HMRC could revoke such real estate election;

(iv) it will use such assets in carrying on the same kind of business as the Seller and Xxxxxxxxxx, namely that detailed in clause 3.1.2(v);

(v) Article 5 (2B) of the Value Added Tax (Special Provisions) Order 1995 does not apply to the Purchaser in relation to the purchase of the Property; and

(vi) it is not acting as a nominee.

Page 12

3.1.5 The Purchaser will pay to the Seller within 10 Working Days of written demand a sum equal to the amount of VAT determined by HMRC, in exchange for a valid VAT invoice.

3.1.6 Subject to clause 3.1.7, the Purchaser will pay, in addition, to the Seller within 10 Working Days of written demand an amount equal to the total of any interest, penalties, claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses arising as a consequence of, or in relation to the failure to charge and collect VAT on the Price at Completion and to account for such VAT to HMRC except to the extent that VAT is chargeable on the Price as a consequence of the Seller's failure to comply with its obligations and undertakings in terms of this clause 3.

3.1.7 The Seller will use all reasonable endeavours to minimise the amount due under clause 3.1.6.

3.1.8 If the Purchaser fails to pay any amount due under clause 3.1.5 and 3.1.6 within the relevant time limit, the Purchaser will pay Interest on the outstanding amount. No Interest will be payable under this clause in respect of any amount and time period to the extent that the Seller has already been compensated under clause 3.1.6 for interest in respect of the same amount and the same time period.

3.1.9 The Purchaser, the Seller and Larchfield do not intend to make a joint application under regulation 6(1) of the VAT Regulations 1995 (SI 1995/2518) for the Purchaser to be registered for VAT under the Seller's and Larchfield's VAT registration number and the Seller confirms that it will allow the Purchaser such access to VAT records relating to the Property as required by Section 49 of the VAT Act as amended by the Finance Act 2007.
