The property does not include access to the Howgate Centre. The current access and right to install a shop front is held under a separate lease between the Howgate Centre and Wilko. Wilko pay a service charge direct to the Howgate Centre for this.
An agreement between the owners of the property and the Howgate Centre gives the property rights to use the Howgate Centre loading bay subject paying service charge to the Howgate Centre. The obligation to pay this service charge is passed to Wilko under the lease.
On the expiry of the Wilko lease, the owner of the Howgate Centre and the owner of the property are to cooperate to try and let the combined unit as a single trading unit. If they are unsuccessful the unit will be split into the two owned areas and the cost of building the dividing wall will be split 50/50. If the unit is split the property can continue to use the Howgate Centre’s loading bay subject to the owner paying service charge to the Howgate Centre.
