RNS Number:7438S Berkeley Group PLC 02 December 2003 2 December 2003 UPDATE ON GUNWHARF QUAYS PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE BERKELEY GROUP PLC AND LAND SECURITIES PLC The Berkeley Group plc is about to embark on the next phase of its flagship development of Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth and is now finalising three new planning applications to submit to Portsmouth City Council to complete the regeneration of Gunwharf Quays. The application will comprise over 400 residential units, of which 25% will be offered to the local NHS Trust, in addition there will be over 10,000 sq ft of retail space and a children's nursery. Gunwharf Quays is a 33 acre site overlooking Portsmouth Harbour and is being developed into a waterfront shopping and leisure destination coupled with residential homes. The scheme's success is as a result of the vision of Portsmouth City Council, the local authority, The Berkeley Group who developed the site, and Land Securities who bought an equal stake with The Berkeley Group in the retail and leisure part of the development which they have been operating. This unrivalled partnership has resulted in Gunwharf Quays winning the BURA Awards for Best Practice in Regeneration 2003 and the English Partnership Award for Partnership in Regeneration 2003. With the substantial completion of the retail and leisure development phase, Land Securities Plc have taken full control of this element with The Berkeley Group plc focusing on regenerating and developing the next phases of Gunwharf Quays in partnership with Portsmouth City Council. Land Securities will pay The Berkeley Group in aggregate for Gunwharf Quays around #170 million, of which #64 million was paid by April 2003, #90 million is forecast by the end of April 2004, of which, #85 million has been received in November, and the remainder thereafter. The remainder is paid to The Berkeley Group in tranches, the timing of which will be related initially to the base rents secured and one year thereafter, to the level of turnover rents. The final amount payable will depend on the turnover element of the rents received. Gunwharf Quays comprises over 550,000 sq ft of development including 243,000 sq ft of designer factory outlets, 130,000 sq ft of leisure, 117,000 sq ft of bars and restaurants, 26,000 sq ft of offices and a 130 bedroom Express by Holiday Inn hotel which opened in November 2003, and there are also 2,340 car parking spaces. The scheme is let to 91 top name retailers including Gap, Adidas, Levi Strauss, Fat Face, Ted Baker, Gieves and Hawkes, Marks & Spencer and Nike. The leisure includes an 11 screen Warner Village Cinema, a 26 lane bowling complex operated by Bowlplex and a casino operated by Grosvenor. Over 11 million people have visited the centre in the first two years. Adjacent to the commercial area The Berkeley Group have completed 233 residential units with a further 131 units under construction and being sold with completion forecast throughout 2004. A W Pidgley, Managing Director of The Berkeley Group commented: "This is a fantastic project for Berkeley to be involved with. We've broken new ground in so many respects and it is wonderful that Gunwharf has been recognised as an exemplar in its field. Our partnership with Land Securities has been a great experience for Berkeley and we have learned an immense amount from this link with such an acclaimed company. I am very proud of Berkeley's contribution to the historic City of Portsmouth and incredibly pleased that we will be continuing to participate in the growing vitality of Portsmouth Harbour, through our developments at Gunwharf and Royal Clarence Yard. The bringing together of the best from local government and the private sector is a fantastic accolade and Gunwharf Quays has benefited from having a visionary local council and the premier operator through Land Securities plc. This is an operational model for us to replicate."
