SCHEDULE 1

 

1.                                                For the purposes of section 6(2) of the Law of Property (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1994 and all matters now recorded in registers open to public inspection will be treated as being within the actual knowledge of the Landlord.

 

2.                                                The covenant implied by section 4(1)(b) of the Law of Property (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1994 shall be modified so as not to imply any covenant on the part of the Tenant that at the date of this surrender insofar as it relates to the state and condition of the Level 24 Lease, Level 25 Lease and/or Level 26 Lease premises:

 

(a)                                           there is no subsisting breach of the conditions or Tenant’s obligations contained in the Lease; or

 

(b)           there is nothing which at the date of the surrender would render the Lease liable to forfeiture.

 

 3.            The covenant set out in section 2(1)(b) Law of Property (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1994 shall not extend to include any obligation on the Tenant to pay the costs of complying with that covenant but instead shall extend to include an obligation on the part of the Landlord to pay those costs.

WARNING

 

If you dishonestly enter information or make a statement that you know is, or might be, untrue or misleading, and intend by doing so to make a gain for yourself or another person, or to cause loss or the risk of loss to another person, you may commit the offence of fraud under section 1 of the Fraud Act 2006, the maximum penalty for which is 10 years’ imprisonment or an unlimited fine, or both.

 

Failure to complete this form with proper care may result in a loss of protection under the Land Registration Act 2002 if, as a result, a mistake is made in the register.

 

Under section 66 of the Land Registration Act 2002 most documents (including this form) kept by the registrar relating to an application to the registrar or referred to in the register are open to public inspection and copying.

WARNING

 

If you dishonestly enter information or make a statement that you know is, or might be, untrue or misleading, and intend by doing so to make a gain for yourself or another person, or to cause loss or the risk of loss to another person, you may commit the offence of fraud under section 1 of the Fraud Act 2006, the maximum penalty for which is 10 years’ imprisonment or an unlimited fine, or both.

 

Failure to complete this form with proper care may result in a loss of protection under the Land Registration Act 2002 if, as a result, a mistake is made in the register.

 

Under section 66 of the Land Registration Act 2002 most documents (including this form) kept by the registrar relating to an application to the registrar or referred to in the register are open to public inspection and copying.  If you believe a document contains prejudicial information, you may apply for that part of the document to be made exempt using Form EX1, under rule 136 of the Land Registration Rules 2003.
