Our London-based operations will continue on the two remaining leased floors. Under this agreement, we will surrender our lease of this floor on June 30, 2012, instead of on the lease’s original termination date of October 2, 2016, and will on the date of surrender pay Hammerson (99 Bishopsgate) Limited approximately £750,000 in connection with the surrender.
