In accordance with IFRS1 "First time adoption of International ReportingStandards" and IAS 17 "Leases", the Group has reviewed the classification of allleases at the opening balance sheet date of 1 April 2004. In reviewing leasesof land and buildings in accordance with IAS 17 the land and buildings elementsof the lease need to be considered separately. On this basis, leases on 43properties entered into between 1923 and 2003 were reclassified as financeleases in these accounts. This resulted in an increase in fixed assets of£77.2m and a finance lease creditor of the same amount at first time adoption on1 April 2004. At 31 March 2006 leases on 34 properties entered into between1936 and 2005 were classified as finance leases. The corresponding increase infixed assets and finance lease creditor was £74.6m (2005: £69.6m). Operatinglease expense has reduced by £5.8m (2005: £5.4m). The fair value of the Group's investment properties at 31 March 2006 has beenarrived at on the basis of a valuation carried out at that date by Knight FrankLLP, independent valuers. The valuation, which conforms to InternationalValuation Standards, was arrived at by reference to market evidence oftransaction prices for similar properties. Included within the propertyoutsourcing operating and investment properties are investment properties with amarket value of £27.1m (2005: £24.4m). Fixed asset properties includecapitalised interest of £115.8m (2005: £120.9m). The average rate ofcapitalisation is 5.5% (2005: 6.8%). The historical cost of investmentproperties is £6,265.5m (2005: £4,594.7m). The current value of investment properties in respect of proposed developmentsis £383.8m (2005: £189.2m). Developments are transferred out of the development programme when physicallycomplete and 95% let. Schemes completed during the year were Bexhill RetailPark; Whitefriars, Canterbury; Eastbourne Terrace, W2; and Summerland Gate,Exeter. 10.

On 3 November 2004 a debt refinancing was completed resulting in the Groupexchanging all of its outstanding bond and debenture debt for new Notes. Thenew Notes do not meet the IAS 39 requirement to be substantially different fromthe debt that it replaced. Consequently the book value of the new Notes isreduced to the book value of the original debt ('the bond exchangede-recognition adjustment'). The adjustment will be amortised to zero over thelife of the new Notes. The Notes and the committed bank facilities are secured on a fixed and floatingpool of assets ("the Security Group"). This grants the Group's investorssecurity over a pool of investment properties valued at £9.4bn at 31 March 2006(2005: £7.4bn). The secured debt structure has a tiered covenant regime whichgives the Group substantial operational flexibility when the loan to value andinterest rate cover in the Security Group are less than 65% and more than 1.45times respectively. If these limits are exceeded, operational restrictionsincrease significantly and could act as an incentive to reduce gearing. The acquisition loan notes were issued by Retail Property Holdings TrustLimited, a subsidiary of the Group, as partial consideration for the purchase ofthe Tops Estates PLC and LxB Portfolios. The notes are unsecured, however, havethe benefit of a commercial bank guarantee. Interest is calculated withreference to 6 month LIBOR. The DWP term loan is a syndicated term loan due to expire in December 2017 andis secured on the freehold and long leasehold properties acquired from theDepartment of Work and Pensions. The carrying amount of the propertiesconcerned was £388.1m at 31 March 2006 (2005: £389.4m). The Group had interest rate swaps outstanding with a notional principal of£615.0m (2005: £250.0m) which do not qualify for hedge accounting and whichterminate over the period 2007 to 2011. The contracts have fixed interestpayments at an average rate of 4.9% and have floating interest receipts atLIBOR. In addition, there were interest rate swaps outstanding with a notionalprincipal of £243.2m (2005: £245.9m) which qualify for hedge accounting andwhich terminate over the period 2009 to 2017. The contracts have fixed interestpayments at an average rate of 5.1% and have floating interest receipts atLIBOR. Fair value has been calculated by taking the market value, for those instrumentswhich have a listing, or where one is not available, the fair value iscalculated using a discounted cash flow approach.

Reconciliation of UK GAAP to IFRS The Group's transition date for the adoption of IFRS is 1 April 2004. Thistransition date has been selected in accordance with IFRS 1 "First-time adoptionof International Financial Reporting Standards". The Group has also adopted IAS32 "Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation" and IAS 39 "FinancialInstruments: Recognition and Measurement" from 1 April 2004. The principal differences for the Group between reporting under IFRS as comparedto UK GAAP as at 31 March 2005 are: (i) Recognising revaluation surpluses and deficits in theincome statement; (ii) Providing in full for deferred tax on revaluations andcharging movements on this provision through the income statement; (iii) Restating the financial effects of the November 2004 debtrefinancing; (iv) Showing the Group's share of the profit after tax and netassets of all its joint ventures and joint arrangements as single lines in theincome statement and balance sheet respectively; (v) Ceasing to amortise goodwill but instead testing forimpairment; and (vi) No longer recognising dividends payable to shareholdersprior to their approval by the Annual General Meeting in the case of the finaldividend and by the Board in the case of the interim dividend. The application of IFRS has also changed the presentation of the cash flowstatement which now shows cash flows derived from three types of activities -operating, investing and financing. In addition, under IFRS, the cash flowstatement includes all cash flows in respect of cash and cash equivalents. Thisis a broader definition of cash than under UK GAAP. As a general rule, the Group is required to establish its IFRS accountingpolicies for the year ending 31 March 2006 and apply these retrospectively todetermine its opening IFRS balance sheet at the transition date of 1 April 2004and the comparative information for the year ended 31 March 2005. However,advantage has been taken of certain exemptions afforded by IFRS 1 "First-timeadoption of International Financial Reporting Standards" as follows: • Business combinations prior to 1 April 2004; and • The Group has applied IFRS 2 "Share-based Payment" retrospectivelyonly to awards made after 7 November 2002 that had not vested at 1 January 2005. In preparing the IFRS accounts, the Group has adjusted amounts reportedpreviously in the financial statements prepared in accordance with UK GAAP. Anexplanation of how the transition has affected the Group's financial performanceand position is set out in the following tables and accompanying narrative.

In particular, deferred tax is now provided on revaluation surpluses. (ii) Dividends are now only provided when finally approved,either by the Annual General Meeting in the case of final dividends or by theBoard for interim dividends. (iii) The actuarial deficit in the Group's defined benefitpension schemes is now recognised as a liability in the consolidated balancesheet. (iv) Tenant leases which transfer substantially all of the risksand rewards of ownership to the tenant are treated as finance leases. Theproperty is de-recognised from the balance sheet and a receivable recognised inits place. (v) The cost of tenant lease incentives, such as rent freeperiods, are now amortised over the term of the leases concerned rather thanover the period to the first review to market rents. (vi) The fair value of all derivatives such as interest rateswaps is now recognised in the Group balance sheet at each reporting date. (vii) Goodwill arising on acquisition is no longer amortised butkept on the balance sheet and reviewed regularly for impairment. (viii) The cost of share based payments is now recognised throughthe income statement. (ix) Joint ventures cease to be consolidated once their netassets become negative. This is the case with Telereal during the year underreview. (x) The bond exchange which took place in November 2004qualified as an extinguishment of the existing debt and an issue of new debtunder UK GAAP. Under IFRS, this is not the case and the existing debt isreinstated with the difference in redemption amounts being amortised over thelife of the new debt.
