PREAMBLE

1 This Schedule was prepared following an inspection of the property made on 1st April 2016.

2 This Schedule is to be read in conjunction with the lease dated 1st May 1991 between Kosy

Properties Inc and National Curriculum Council.

3 The Landlord reserves the right to make further inspections, to add to this Schedule and to serve further schedules of dilapidations.

RATIONALE

The selections made for the works required have been made to reinstate the property to the condition it was let at at the the beginning of the lease. To ensure the Landlord obtains the minimum loss in value for its property, and the works are quantified accurately.

1 In accordance with the lease it was assumed that the property was originally let as an open plan space, containing no internal patitioning used as room dividers. Therefore, it is required to deconstruct said partitions to comply with the reinstatement covenant.

2 Due to the age and overall condition of the carpets, a price has been made to relay the entire floor in the rooms affected as there is a low chance of matching the existing floor to a satisfactory standard.

3 Many of the ceiling tiles throughout the building are stained and damaged but many more remain in good condition. It was recommended that the 1st floor ceiling is dropped and replaced with a new suspended ceiling. To minimise costs, the tiles in good condition will be used to replace stained tiles on the other floors, creating only a labour charge for doing so.

4 In the lease is has stated that no alterations are to be made to the electrics which has been breached by the tenant. Including the reinstallment of emergency lighting, it had been recommended in the specification that all fire safety installations are to be tested and replaced to meet current regulations.

5 Provisions have been made for updating the disabled accessability of the building and from the survey all ramps, doors and exits appear suitable. However costs have been added for installing grab rails and updating the disabled toilets to meet current regulations.

6 Patch plasterwork will be suitable for reinstating the walls. However, all walls and woodwork is to be sanded and painted to achieve an even finish.

LIMITATIONS

The information provided in this report has been based on a visual inspection of the property and the documents provided which include:1. Lease 2. Floor plans

Due to the type of inspection there have been no intrusive tests to check the upper levels of the exterior, cavity wall inspections or tests performed on services. Due to this, there are certain elements of the property that could not be quantified and calculated in the costings of this report. Some of the issues have been listed below and it is recommended that a further survey is performed if this information is required:

1 There have been no tests performed on the condition of services, including the electrics and HVAC system, to check whether they meet current regulations.

2 There has been no inspection into the structural condition of the property including but not limited to the foundations, ground works and load bearing members of the frame.

3 Inspection of the exterior was only taken from what could be seen at ground level and without the use of telescopic apparatus.

4 As no valuation will be provided with this report, there has been no market research performed to determine the value of the property and what the degradation of value will be when compared with the building costs.
