The group leases a number of its office properties, vehicles <strong>and</strong> other operating equipment under operating leases. Property leases are negotiated over<br />
an average term of eight years, at rates reflective of market rentals. Periodic rent reviews take place to bring lease rentals in line with prevailing market<br />
conditions. Some but not all lease agreements have an option to renew the lease at the end of the lease term. Leased vehicles <strong>and</strong> other operating<br />
equipment are negotiated over an average lease term of four years.<br />
Certain leased properties have been sub-let by the group. Sub-leases are negotiated on terms consistent with those of the associated property. The total<br />
future minimum sub-lease payments expected to be received by the group from sub-let properties amount to £10m (2010: £10m).<br />
