PROJECT CHARLOTTE
STRONG AND SECURE CASHFLOW The portfolio has an occupancy rate of 93% by floor area generating a total gross rent of £25,790,626 per annum. The average unexpired lease term is 7.33 years to expiry and 6.14 years to breaks and 81% of the income is secured to national multiple covenants (excluding car parks). The portfolio’s strong fundamentals and secure cashflow are anticipated to be attractive to a wide number of lenders.
DOMINANCE The portfolio comprises assets that all benefit from strong dominant fundamentals. The majority are either the only scheme in the town or provide the landlord control of an entire town centre. The assets are all strategically located, integrated into transport infrastructure networks and offer the opportunity to work progressively with local authorities. This provides an investor with a platform of assets offering a sustainable and secure cash flow over a long term hold period.
RE-BASED RENTS The portfolio comprises assets let off low rental levels with average rents across the portfolio standing at £44 per sq ft Zone A. In addition, manageable occupational unit costs for units with an average service charge of £4.36 per sq ft, provide affordable retail and leisure accommodation. The assets have been re-positioned and rents actively rebased. In parallel with the asset’s dominant characteristics and improving occupational markets, this provides positive and realistic rental growth prospects in the short to medium term.
PROJECT CHARLOTTE
ongoing ASSET MANAGEMENT In addition to providing an investor with a well secured cash flow, each of the properties offer a wide range of deliverable asset management initiatives. The opportunities vary from flexible tenant engineering and leasing through to larger scale development and redevelopment angles, enabling an investor to enhance value and drive strong returns early in a hold period.
RESILIENCE The portfolio comprises shopping centres that are future proofed against the changing retail landscape and the threats posed by online retailing. The retailing is predominantly mass market, convenience and value led, catering to everyday shopping necessities. These fundamentals ensure that the assets are resilient, demonstrated through high occupancy rates and positive occupational activity and offer an investor a solid platform to drive and enhance future value.
covenant strength The portfolio has a strong representation of national multiple retailers accounting for 86% of the total gross income (excluding car park and commercialisation) with representation from Boots, TK Maxx, Wilko, M&S, Next, H&M, Peacocks, Superdrug, Poundland, Argos, Co-Op, Home Bargains, and Iceland.

Location
Situation
Birkenhead is located in the North West of England on the Wirral Peninsula. The town sits along the west bank of the river Mersey, opposite Liverpool, one of the UK’s fastest growing economies.
The adjoining Pyramids and Grange Shopping Centres are situated in the heart of Birkenhead town centre. The shopping centres comprise the entire retail core for Birkenhead.
Birkenhead is the dominant retail town on the Wirral Peninsula. The town is approximately 1.5 miles (2.4km), via the Mersey Tunnel, from Liverpool City Centre, 32 miles (51km) north west of Chester and 32 miles (51km) west of Manchester. The town can be accessed from junctions 1 and 3 of the M53 motorway and two road tunnels that run underneath the river Mersey connecting Birkenhead to Liverpool.
The Pyramids is bound by Grange Road on the northern side and Borough Road to the south. The Pyramids links directly into the Grange shopping centre via St Johns Pavement at the eastern end. The principal access points are from the scheme’s multistorey car park via a covered bridge link from Grange Road and from St Johns Square via an escalator.

PROJECT CHARLOTTE
Asset Management Opportunities • Create 2 MSU’s on Grange Road replacing MSU 4 and Unit 30/33. This would create two 11,000 sq ft and 11,700 sq ft units and suit a number of current requirements. • Explore the potential to redevelop the northern element of Milton Pavement to create a large surface car park and 3 new retail or leisure units. This would mitigate landlord rates liabilities, reduce the over supply of small retail units and drive footfall via the car park. • Amalgamate or extend 1/3 St Johns Pavement to create a larger and better configured store. Interest has been expressed on both units, including Ed’s Diner subject to re-configuration. The landlord has the benefit from Santander of a potential reverse premium on Unit 3. • Explore the option to amalgamate 15-23 Princes Pavement to capitalise on recent interest from a national multiple food and beverage operator. • Progress ongoing leasing discussions including; Brand Port under offer on MSU 2, F Hinds offer on 32-34 Borough Pavement, Cancer Research UK offer on 21 Borough Pavement, The Entertainer on SU9/10 or SU17 and 19/21 Borough Pavement, Reubens Coffee on 2 Borough Pavement, Equivalenza on 2A St Johns Pavement, Milton Jewellers on 36 Borough Parade and Pepkor UK on 32-36 Milton Pavement. • The 28 vacant units providing 69,500 sq ft of floor space enables a flexible approach to tenant re-engineering and unit amalgamations offering the potential to drive income. • Explore the potential to acquire Unit 37 Borough Pavement which is held on a long leasehold interest in order to mitigate the landlord shortfall from the service charge restriction to drive income. • Seek to acquire and integrate Birkenhead Market into the scheme providing redevelopment opportunities and additional control of the town centre.

Kennoway
Kinross
Glenrothes Ballingry
The town has an estimated shopper population of 27,000 and an annual comparison goods spend of £61.3 million with 87% of the expenditure generated by residents.

Local Economy
Retailing
Glenrothes has a robust local economy with recent expansion to accommodate an influx of service sector and manufacturing jobs. The service sector accounts for 70% of the total employment in Glenrothes, with finance accounting for 16% and manufacturing 11%. The town was originally an important mining town but is now a major economy for Fife with high tech electronics, manufacturing, public sector agencies, accommodation and food services, and a strong retail base.
Retail provision within Glenrothes is dominated by the Kingdom Shopping Centre which forms the core retailing for the town. The scheme is the only shopping centre in the town and provides a mixture of retail and service uses.
The largest occupiers in the town are manufacturing based and over 50% of Fife’s electronics sector is based in the town. Global manufacturing and engineering firms in occupation include Bosch, Rexroth, Flexell and Plastech. Other major occupiers include Tullis Russell, Raytheon Systems, Smith Anderson Packaging, and Velux. Recent investment and expansion in the town includes Kyndal Group and John Fergus Co’s joint venture for a newly built £6.7 million Scotch Whisky distillery and RWE npower completing a £200 million biomass CHP plant.
Saltire Retail Park is located to the north west of the town centre. It provides 145,000 sq ft of retail accommodation across 8 units. The retail park is anchored by Homebase with key tenants including Matalan, Brantano and Carpetright. The retail provision within Saltire Retail Park is predominantly bulky goods and does not compete with the Kingdom Shopping Centre.
Prime retail rents are within the Kingdom Shopping Centre. Rents peaked at £57.50 Zone A on Unicorn Way but have been re-based to levels of £30-40 Zone A.
Education contributes an important role to the local economy with Glenrothes having 12 primary schools, 3 secondary schools and Fife College accommodating 25,000 students.

Service Charge The operating costs of the shopping centre are covered by a comprehensive service charge which is apportioned on a gross internal area basis. The service charge year runs to 26th May and the audited service charge expenditure over the past three years has been as follows:
Service Charge Year to May 26th
Total
2012 (expenditure)
£1,585,697
2013 (expenditure)
£1,805,699
2014 (budget)
£1,769,703
2015 (budget)
£1,781,768
The current annual service charge budget of the year to 26th May 2015 is £1,781,768 equating to £4.14 per sq. ft. The total marketing budget is £120,048. The landlord contributes £110,000 towards the marketing budget, well in excess of 50% standard practice level. The current landlord has been investing heavily in the shopping centre but there is potential for a future landlord to reduce this contribution significantly.
glenrothes kingdom SHOPPING CENTRE
Commercialisation The landlord controls and operates mall and commercialisation income within the shopping centre. The total income generated through commercialisation for the service charge ending 26th May 2014 was £84,850. The forecast mall income for the service charge year ending 2015 is £84,700 (including the optional landlord’s contribution of £15,300 to the service charge).
PROJECT CHARLOTTE
Asset Management Opportunities • Progress ongoing discussions with the Co-Op to surrender their lease expiring in 2018 on their unoccupied 24,000 sq ft unit on 2 Marchmont Gate. Explore the option to split into two units providing 16,000 sq ft of leisure space and an 8,000 sq ft retail unit, and let to a gym operator and national multiple. • Explore options to mitigate the £85,796 landlord rates liability on the vacant Unicorn House by stripping the unit to shell or reinstating the services and letting to a charity. • Investigate plans to redevelop the eastern quarter of the shopping centre incorporating Lyon Square and Albany Gate to create a retail park serviced by the surface car park. Demand for retail parks is strong due to limited competition and undertaking this development would reduce the over supply of units within the shopping centre. • Re-investigate plans to secure a supermarket development on the car parking site on the northern boundary of the scheme. The plans previously had a planning consent for a 80,000 sq ft supermarket development. There is limited supermarket competition within the town with Asda and Morrisons both on the outskirts of the town. • Amalgamate 13 and 15 Lyon Way to create a larger, better configured unit. • Upsize Thomson Travel incorporating 11 Unicorn Square. • Complete ongoing lettings to Pepkor on 41 Unicorn Way and NHS Dentist on 15 Lyon Way.

Local Economy
Keighley is witnessing significant inward investment with a number of major initiatives currently underway to drive the economy. A £120 million clean energy complex has been granted approval and will be constructed on the derelict former gasworks site at Marley. In addition a data centre and offices will be built on the land, generating 500 new jobs. Furthermore, the creation of an Industrial Centre of Excellence on the Leeds City College Keighley campus aims to develop a strong skilled workforce for the rapidly expanding engineering and manufacturing base. The area benefited hugely from the success of the Tour de France in 2014 which was anticipated to have boosted the Yorkshire economy by £102 million and the area is expected to witness a further £24 million boost from visitors returning to the region over the next 2 years.

Catchment and Demographics
RETAILING
Middlesbrough serves a large primary catchment area that includes the neighbouring town of Stockton-on-Tees and borders the catchments of Hartlepool to the north and Darlington to the west. Middlesbrough’s primary catchment also extends to smaller towns such as Redcar, Northallerton, Guisborough and Sedgefield.
Middlebrough’s town centre is the main centre for shopping within the Tees Valley providing 1.36 million sq ft of retail floor space, ranking the town 48 of the PROMIS centres and above the sub regional average.
The total population within the Middlesbrough primary catchment area is 550,000 ranking the town 30th out of the PROMIS Centres. The estimated shopping population of Middlesbrough is 253,000, ranking the town 42 of the PROMIS centres. Middlesbrough ranks 35 in terms of volume comparison retail spend available within the catchment area and has a total comparison spend of £296 million (CACI) ranking it above major UK retail centres including Blackpool, Carlisle, Crawley, Dundee, and Northampton. Middlesbrough retains a healthy share of its comparison catchment spend, with a total market share of 12% and a primary catchment market share of 34%.
The retail offer within Middlesbrough is focussed upon the town centre, centrered upon retail either side of the pedestrianised Linthorpe Road which runs north to south dissecting the town centre. Middlesbrough’s retail provision is dominated by the three managed shopping centres, Captain Cook Square, Cleveland Centre and Hill Street Shopping Centre. Cleveland Centre and Hill Street provide mass market and fashion retail provision, with Captain Cook Square providing the town’s main value and convenience retail offer. Captain Cook Square is an open air shopping centre, providing a number of large well configured stores with national multiple retailers including Wilko, Peacocks and TK Maxx. Linthorpe Road traditionally formed the prime retail pitch for the town, however this has shifted to the shopping centres which now dominate retail provision within Middlesbrough.

Tenancies & Income Analysis The total contracted gross income, including vendor guarantees and top ups is £1,930,946 per annum. After deduction of void costs relating to vacant units which amount to £312,336 per annum and landlords contribution to marketing costs of £56,000 per annum, the current net operating income is £1,562,610 per annum. The properties produce a current estimated rental value of £2,120,696 per annum.

Retail provision within Rochdale is dominated by The Exchange Shopping Centre, situated in the heart of the town centre. The Exchange forms the prime retail for the town, focussed along the internal mall of Market Way which provides well configured modern units. Secondary retailing in the town is focussed towards the eastern end of Yorkshire Street and the second scheme in the town, The Wheatsheaf Shopping Centre. Rochdale has a total retail floor space of 930,000 sq ft, with the Exchange Shopping Centre accounting for the majority of the well configured modern provision. The Wheatsheaf Shopping Centre opened in 1990 and provides 106,000 sq ft of retail space. The scheme is anchored by Wilko, New Look and Peacocks but suffers from a high number of vacant units.

PROJECT CHARLOTTE
Description The Exchange Shopping Centre opened in 1976 and was subsequently refurbished in 1997. The scheme provides 266,017 sq ft of retail accommodation in an enclosed mall and trades over ground floor only. The retail units have ancillary storage at basement and first floors. The Exchange is comprised of 44 modern retail units including a 52,318 sq ft Beales Department Store, 4 kiosks and a mall café. The centre is anchored by a Beales Department Store, with additional large stores let to Iceland, B&M Bargains, and Boots. Further national multiple retailers include River Island, WH Smith, Superdrug, Home Bargains and Poundland. There is an 80,000 sq ft covered market, which is no longer in use at the rear of the scheme and provides a number of deliverable asset management opportunities for a landlord. The shopping centre’s mass market and value led shopping offer suits the local and loyal catchment base and remains the main destination for retailers looking for modern well configured units, demonstrated by the high occupancy rate and only one vacant unit. The scheme also has a 779 multi-storey car park within the ownership, which provides the towns principle parking and is easily accessible from the A58. There is a three storey office building situated directly above the car park.
Footfall The Exchange had a footfall of 6.3 million visitors in 2014.
Car Park The Exchange benefits from having the towns principal car park within the ownership, providing a 779 space multi-storey car park. The car park is comprised of 10 levels.

The landlord has made some significant cost savings in car park operation and expenditure through a successful rates revaluation initiative which has reduced the 2015 budget to £329,150. Based on the improving revenues and reduced expenditure costs, it is anticipated that car parking income can be driven considerably in the short to medium term.

Service Charge The operating costs of the shopping centre are covered by a comprehensive service charge which is calculated on a gross internal area basis. The Exchange has two service charge budgets in operation covering the shopping centre and the car park. Historically a third service charge budget was in place to cover the market, however this is no longer effective since its closure by the landlord. The service charge year runs from 1st January to 31st December and the service charge expenditure for the last 2 years has been as follows:
Service Charge Year
Total
2013 (expenditure)
£1,321,769
2014 (expenditure)
£1,367,468
2015 (budget)
£1,400,792
The Rochdale Exchange benefits from a very low service charge, equating to £4.50 per sq ft for 2015.
ROCHDALE THE EXCHANGE SHOPPING CENTRE

Historically, Tamworth has benefitted from strong logistics, manufacturing and mining industries. Until 2001 it was home to the Reliant car company, which produced the Robin model and the Scimitar sports car for several decades. Today the town is part of the wider West Midlands economy and is a major commuting hub for Birmingham. Tamworth’s local economy boasts significant employment and wage growth over recent years. The town’s unemployment rate has fallen faster than anywhere in the UK, more than halving from 9.9% to 4.7% since 2012. This has had a dramatic effect on local wages, which, on average rose by an impressive 16% last year (source: ONS, ASHE). This improvement in the local economy is set to continue, with increasing employment demand in the Staffordshire area from manufacturing businesses.

RETAILING
Stratford upon Avon
Ankerside Shopping Centre is located on Tamworth’s main high street, George Street. The centre is the primary shopping destination in the town, providing 210,000 sq ft of value and convenience retail provision for the catchment. Ankerside Shopping Centre provides the town’s principal car park. Further town centre retail provision is well defined and focussed along the remainder of George Street and, to a lesser degree, Church Street. Tamworth also benefits from a popular market which is held on George Street, opposite the entrances to Ankerside Shopping Centre, on Tuesday and Saturday each week. The market is a major attraction within the town and acts as a strong footfall driver for the shopping centre. Town centre floor space in Tamworth is estimated at 48,000 sq ft, ranking the town 193 on the PMA retail ranking. Retailing in the town is value and convenience focussed and is suited to the local resident population. In contrast to Tamworth’s in town retailing offer, out-of-town retail provision is fashion and food-orientated. Ventura Retail Park, totalling 338,000 sq ft is anchored by John Lewis with key retailers including Next, ASDA, Currys and Halfords. Jolly Sailor and Cardinal Point Retail Parks provide predominantly fashion and bulky goods retail with tenants including Argos Extra, Brantano, TK Maxx and Dreams.

Wester Hailes benefits from being located 3 miles from Edinburgh City Centre. Edinburgh is the historic, administrative and financial capital of Scotland. It is the UK’s second largest financial centre after London and Europe’s fourth by equity assets. The economy of Edinburgh is strongly focused on the service sector. The financial and business service sector employs around 35% of residents, significantly above the UK average. Edinburgh is home to Scotland’s two largest banks, the Royal Bank of Scotland and Bank of Scotland, as well as some its largest financial institutions, Standard Life, Scottish Widows and AEGON. Edinburgh’s labour market is buoyant relative to Scotland as a whole. The city has an unemployment rate of 1.8% as at February 2015, significantly below the UK average unemployment rate of 5.7%.

Retailing Westside Plaza forms the main retail focus in Wester Hailes. The centre is heavily embedded within the local community, providing key community services including a health centre, and forms the main social and shopping hub of the area. The focus of the scheme is on convenience and mass market retailing, which suits the local catchment population. The centre also benefits from strong leisure anchors, Odeon Cinema and Gala Bingo. Westside Plaza is the only shopping centre and forms the entire retail provision for Wester Hailes. Edinburgh town centre (3 miles north east) and the Gyle Shopping Centre (2 miles north) offer higher-spend comparison and fashion retailing destinations, that do not compete with Westside Plaza which offers a strong local convenience retail offer for the loyal catchment population. Hermiston Gate Retail Park is located 2 miles north west of Westside Plaza and forms the main out-of-town retail provision for Wester Hailes. The scheme provides 300,000 sq ft of open A1 non-food retail space over 10 units and is anchored by Tesco and B&Q. Further national multiples include Halfords, Staples, Carpetright and Decathlon. The retailing offer is predominantly bulky goods use and does not compete with Westside Plaza’s convenience offer.
‘Edinburgh is the UK’s 2nd largest financial centre after London…’

The centre benefits from strong footfall of 2.5 million visitors in 2014. This reflects an increase on 2013 where footfall reached 2.3 million visitors.

Car Park
The scheme has a strong leisure element and is anchored by a 36,000 sq ft 4 screen Odeon Cinema and 28,000 sq ft Gala Bingo hall. In addition, the centre has strong anchor tenants including a 10,600 sq ft Home Bargains, 14,000 sq ft Lidl and a 7,800 sq ft Iceland. Further national multiple retailers include Brighthouse, Peacocks, Store 21, Farmfoods, Card Factory, Poundstretcher and Greggs. Westside Plaza provides a number of key services including a health centre and post office making the centre an integral part of the local community and driving footfall into the scheme.
There are 720 free shopper car spaces at Westside Plaza provided on a surface car park on the southern boundary of the shopping centre directly adjacent to the Odeon Cinema. This is the principal car park for the town and provides direct access to Wester Hailes railway station. The maintenance costs for the car park are funded through the service charge.
