Why would the HSE forgo its right of first refusal to purchase the site? The HSE loses its right of first refusal to acquire the premises on the later of 20 years after the HSE, as tenant, complies with its obligations under the sixth schedule or 30 years from the date of the lease. Should SVHG decide for whatever reason to sell the site, which it is entitled to do, the HSE would lose the right of first refusal in what would be very early into a 299-year lease.
