Euston Street Tavistock Square Warren Street Gordon Square

Location Alfred Place is located within the Bloomsbury sub-market but several years of strong rental growth in the West End and severely limited supply has blurred the traditional boundaries and now this location is more closely aligned with the Noho sub-market. In recent years, Noho has gained a reputation as a core location for offices due to its geographical location in the heart of London’s West End. The immediate area is particularly popular with TMT (technology, media and telecommunications) occupiers and has increasingly attracted major corporate occupiers including Sony, Google, Omnicom, Mindshare and NBC Universal, all of whom are located nearby. The location’s desirability to office occupiers is enhanced by the high quality retail and restaurant provision on nearby Tottenham Court Road, Charlotte Street and Oxford Street whilst the world renowned leisure facilities in Covent Garden and Soho are within close proximity.

Situation Alfred Place is a wide tree-lined avenue situated close to Tottenham Court Road, just 50 metres to the west, running between a north and south crescent of buildings. The property occupies a prominent position on the corner of Alfred Place and Chenies Street.

Regular express train services from Paddington and Victoria provide rapid access to Heathrow and Gatwick airports respectively, with regular services every 15 minutes.

Crossrail The development of Crossrail will enhance the surrounding transport infrastructure dramatically by providing a new high frequency, convenient and accessible east/west railway link for London and the South East. Crossrail will run from Maidenhead in the west to Shenfield in the east. Alfred Place is within close proximity of St Giles Circus, the location of a ÂŁ1 billion redevelopment of Tottenham Court Road which will be the biggest transport investment in the West End for decades, providing congestion relief, delivering a bigger ticket hall, additional escalators, step-free access, and interchange with Crossrail services. The new Crossrail station, due to open in 2018, will provide the following: - 24 trains per hour service at peak times in each direction - 260m length of platform tunnels - 25m platform depth - 102,000 passengers are estimated to use Crossrail station each day - 500,000 square feet of premium retail, office and residential accommodation created at the eastern end of Oxford Street and Tottenham Court Road

Asset Management

Service Charge

Whittington House benefits from a number of identifiable asset management angles that can be explored by a purchaser including the following:-

The property is managed through a service charge allowing for recovery of the costs of maintenance and repair. There are indexed caps on 4 of the leases set at levels well above the 2011 and 2012 (budgeted) service charges.

Effectively therefore there is currently provision for 100% recovery.

- Lease expiries on the 4th to 7th floors provide opportunities to significantly enhance the rental tone in the building through lease regears and new lettings - Engineering a block date in 2014 to carry out a comprehensive redevelopment and/or extension – the ground level floor plate extends beyond the building line of the upper floors to the rear and is significantly larger (by c.5,000 sq ft)

TENANTS’ Covenant

Rear view showing ground floor roof

- Potential to negotiate a part-surrender and change of use to offices on the ground floor and significantly increase the current passing rent of £25 per sq ft

In addition there is provision in the leases for collection of an annual sinking fund. This fund currently totals approximately £250,000 and is to be utilised for XXX. Further information on the service charge is located on the marketing web site.

- Conversion of large 7th floor plant and storage area into high quality offices with plant being relocated to under-utilised basement car parking area

THE MARKET The West End Office Market

Noho/Fitzrovia Vacancy Rates

Rental Level & ERV

Occupier sentiment within the West End office market remains strong. As at June 2012, the overall West End vacancy stood at 4.0%, a decrease from 4.6% in the prior year. Grade A vacancy stands at 2.6%, below the 10 year average of 3.1% and is expected to remain low for 2013-14 as a result of limited speculative development.

In the Noho/Fitzrovia sub-market, the lack of supply is even more pronounced with a current vacancy rate of 1.8% and a Grade A vacancy rate of just 0.6%.

Rents in the building range from £33.43 per sq ft to £54.16 per sq ft with the most recent letting of £48 per sq ft dating from June 2010, now 27 months ago. Office rents on the upper floors average £41.19 per sq ft and £37.49 per sq ft overall including the ground floor (taking into account parking spaces at £3,500 per annum per space). These rental levels are now historic.

Just over 500,000 sq ft was let across 39 transactions during Q2 2012 whilst 1.3 million sq ft has been transacted so far in 2012. Overall demand at the end of Q2 stands at 4.5 million sq ft, 3% up on the same quarter last year.

IPD estimates West End rental growth over 2010 and 2011 was 4.8% and 7.9% indicating that rental values will now have increased significantly since the date of the last letting as shown in the graph below.

The 4th to 7th floor accommodation is let at an average office rent of just £34.25 psf with expiries in April 2014.

This presents opportunities in the short term to significantly enhance rental income.

The 4th to 7th floors were subject to reviews in April 2009 and therefore reflect rents at the low-point in the last cycle.

The recovery from these levels is seen in the lettings of the 1st and 2nd floors at £43 per sq ft and £48 per sq ft in August 2009 and June 2010 respectively. The 3rd floor was leased in June 2007 prior to the last peak at £54.16 per sq ft.

Jones Lang LaSalle’s opinion of ERV reflects mid £50’s psf on best accommodation. This can also be justified with reference to recent IPD data as demonstrated on the graph below.

MARKET ACTIVITY Occupational Market

Investment Market

A number of recent lettings in the vicinity confirm the strength of the local market and these are highlighted below.

The West End investment market has experienced continued strong demand for high quality assets in core locations. Multi-let assets offer strong rental growth prospects and asset management opportunities. Both domestic and overseas investors have been keen to invest in this highly liquid and transparent market with lack of prime supply increasing pent-up demand for the best investment product.
