4 B. Background Information. Important note: Brownill Vickers Limited undertake a non-destructive visual inspection, this means we do not take up carpets, floor coverings or floorboards, move furniture or, remove the contents of cupboards. Additionally, we do not remove secured panels or undo electrical fittings etc. We inspect roofs, chimneys and other surfaces on the outside of the building from ground level and, if necessary, from neighbouring public property and with the help of binoculars, close examination may reveal defects not visible from a ground level vantage point. We inspect the roof structure from inside the roof space if there is access (although we do not move or lift insulation material, stored goods or other contents). We examine floor surfaces and under-floor spaces so far as there is access to these (although we do not move or lift furniture, floor coverings or other contents). We are not able to assess the condition of the inside of any chimney, boiler or other flues. We do not report on the cost of any work to put right defects or make recommendations on how these repairs should be carried out. Some maintenance and repairs we suggest may be expensive. Electronic recorded photographs were taken on site and are available upon request. B1. Rating Definitions Rating Definition Good Poor Reported elements had no apparent defects, being clean and well maintained, and, the reported element is likely to offer a long serviceable life. Reported element presented in a serviceable condition with some of wear and tear and / or minor damage but not requiring immediate attention, ongoing maintenance and periodic repairs are likely to be required from time to time. Reported element in a deteriorated condition or with disrepair evident, likely to require substantial repair or replacement.

5 B. Background Information. B2. Circumstances of Inspection In accordance with instructions received from Messer Punch Partnerships, Brownill Vickers Limited have carried out an inspection of the subject premises to report on the condition of the premises in connection with the proposed leasehold interest. Our site visit was made on Tuesday 9 th May 2017 and, at the time of inspection the weather was overcast but dry and, the premises were open for business. It was not possible to inspect those parts of the property which were covered or unexposed at the time of the inspection and therefore, we are unable to guarantee that some parts are free from defect. No tests were carried out to any of the service installations, plant or beneath ground drainage neither was an asbestos survey / management plan carried out as part of this instruction. As it was not raining at the time of the inspection it is not possible to confirm that the rainwater installation is free from blockage, leakage etc., or that it is coping with long periods of heavy rainfall. Gutters and any gullies should be cleaned out and checked for defects and monitored during inclement weather. Any reference to left or right is taken from our observation from the road side and facing the front elevation adjacent to Chester Road. Our inspection was limited to those parts, which could be seen from ground level within the boundaries of the property and from the public highway or rights of way. The property fully furnished at the time of our inspection and no removal of furniture or floor coverings was undertaken. In particular floor coverings were not removed or lifted at the edges and no inspection of any sub-floor voids was undertaken. We therefore cannot confirm the condition of underlying floor timbers. This survey does not constitute an asbestos survey and therefore enquiries should be made with to ascertain if a Type 2 or type 3 asbestos survey has been conducted and the findings thereof. Neither the whole nor any part of the Report or any reference thereto may be included in any published document, circular or statement, or published in any way without written approval from Brownill Vickers Limited of the form and context in which it may appear.
