Agreement
Virtue Broadcasting Plc is pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement
to surrender the property lease of its former head office, Tornado House,
Marlow, which is currently unoccupied. Under the agreement the Company has made
a net cash saving of #805,000 compared to its obligations under the lease over
the next two and a half years.
The Company has agreed to pay Comland Management Limited ('the Landlord') a
surrender premium of #495,000 net of VAT in addition to related expenses and
reinstatement costs of #110,000. As part of the settlement the Company will
utilise a #318,000 secured rent deposit held in favour of the Landlord
previously fully written off in the Company's 2002 accounts. Therefore, the net
additional cash payment will be #287,000.
In consideration of the surrender premium the Company will avoid paying
approximately #1.4 million of rent, service charge, lease termination payments,
reinstatement costs and running costs over the next two and a half years.
The Company made full provision for the expected costs arising under the lease
in its 2002 accounts.
