4.6 If at any time during the Term CTI is given notice of any landlord's
intention to oppose any application to renew any lease for any of the
Properties or the CTI New Sites (an "expiring lease"), and that
expiring lease is due to expire prior to the end of the Term and CTI
is unable to reach agreement with the landlord to renew an expiring
lease on terms acceptable to CTI or CTI is unwilling to extend the
Term beyond the Initial Period or One 2 One is required to perform any
of the grantee's, tenant's or licensee's covenants in the Leases
because of a breach by CTI, CTI will give such notice as is
reasonable, but in the case of an expiring lease or if the Term is not
to be renewed beyond the Initial Period not less than 6 month's notice

to
novate the expiring lease to One 2 One by exercising its
powers under the Code; and

renewed or novated an expiring Lease be treated as a "Site" as
defined in and for the purposes of the Site Management Agreement
and the provisions of the Site Management Agreement shall apply.

Management Agreement.

the Properties is impractical to achieve during the Option Period CTI
will give notice to One 2 One confirming such Properties will remain
part of the Site Management Agreement for the remainder of the Term,
and further confirming One 2 One's obligations in respect of the
relevant Property under Clauses 4.1 have ceased.

Schedule 6
New Sites Protocol
1. One 2 One will free issue any One 2 One Retained Apparatus to be installed
on the new greenfield sites together with a Tower design specification for
the purposes of identifying Reserved Capacity and meet the cost of the New
Assets installed by the ADC Contractor to meet One 2 One's Permitted
Equipment specification. One 2 One will also meet the development costs of
such new greenfield sites including acquisition, design and legal costs,
provided that where legal work has not already commenced, early access or
any other operational requirements are not compromised and the landlord is
willing, CTI may at any time during the period of 3 years from the
Framework Commencement Date take over responsibility to complete the legal
acquisition of such new greenfield sites in its own name and at its own
cost and will procure the Landlord and all others with a superior interest
in the CTI New Sites consent in writing to the occupation of the CTI New
Sites by One 2 One and will use all reasonable endeavours not to agree any
restrictions on access to the CTI New Sites for One 2 One's Permitted Use
and any such restrictions will require the consent of One 2 One (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed ) To the extent One 2
One has paid a premium in place of rent, then CTI will reimburse such
premium to One 2 One.
2. One 2 One will use all reasonable endeavours to permit CTI to require the
ADC Contractor to modify the design and construction of New Sites to meet
CTI's business interests and to enable CTI to better perform its rights and
obligations under the Management Agreement provided in doing so: -
(a) CTI agrees to meet any additional costs and expenses incurred in
consequence which exceed those applicable to One 2 One's Permitted
Equipment specification , including
(i) incentive payments to third party ADC Contractors in order that
they submit an alternative planning application in accordance
with CTI's requirement for the relevant New Site to run in
parallel with but without prejudice to any application made by
such third party ADC Contractor for One 2 One's Permitted
Equipment specification;
(ii) incentive payments to the third party ADC Contractor in order to
acquire the New Site in a condition more suitable for multi-
occupational site sharing provided such incentives do not exceed
any bonuses offered by One 2 One for meeting or exceeding the New
Site delivery timetable set out in One 2 One's Permitted
Equipment specification.
(b) a dual purpose base designed by CTI may be substituted for One 2 One's
standard mast base set out in One 2 One's Permitted Equipment
specification provided that CTI pay any difference in costs arising as
a result of making this substitution
(c) Subject to sub-paragraph (d) below, an alternative Tower may be
substituted by CTI for One 2 One's free issue Tower provided the
alternative CTI Tower is capable of carrying One 2 One's Permitted
Equipment specification and One 2 One shall where CTI has elected not
to use a free issue Tower provided by One 2 One pay to CTI a
contribution equal to the cost of the Tower requisite for the
Permitted Equipment specification which One 2 One would otherwise have
installed and CTI will agree with One 2 One a Tower design
specification for the purpose of identifying Reserved Capacity.
(d) in making any arrangements with the third party ADC Contractor CTI
will not seek to carry out any modifications or alterations to One 2
One's Permitted Equipment specification which:
(i) jeopardise the timetable for access by One 2 One to the relevant
New Site; or
(ii) adversely compromise One 2 One's Permitted Equipment
specification or One 2 One's Permitted Use; or
(iii) compromise One 2 One's rights under the Master Site Sharing
Agreement as amended by the Special Conditions in relation to the
relevant New Site.
2. The rates payable by One 2 One on New Sites shall be the lower of the rates
payable on the hypothetical site which would have been built in accordance
with One 2 One's Permitted Equipment specification for its sole occupation
or a fair proportion (according to user) of the rates payable for the site
as built.
3. Where One 2 One completes the acquisition of New Site then such site shall
on completion form part of the portfolio of sites from time to time managed
by CTI under the Site Management Agreement and the parties shall record
such inclusion by formally completing a memorandum within 10 working days
of such completion to be annexed to the Site Management Agreement.
4. One 2 One shall instruct its ADC Contractors in relation to this Protocol
and shall at all times during the Term give CTI sufficient advance details
of new greenfield sites and Non-Compliant Greenfield Sites being acquired
to enable CTI to establish the New Sites Protocol and manage their
incorporation, if appropriate, into the Site Management Agreement
