GLOSSARY
In an turnkey contract (also known as an EPC contract), the contractor engineers, procures, constructs and commissions a project from its inception to completion. The name turnkey is sometimes used because the concept is that once the project is complete and ready to be handed over to the user, it will require only the 'turn of a key' for the user to operate it. This is a form of procurement frequently used for large international infrastructure or power projects, particularly where project financing is involved. For more information, see the EPC contracts subtopic. The most common standard form EPC contract is the FIDIC Silver Book.

PRACTICE NOTES
This Practice Note sets out what turnover (or revenue) information is required for a multi-jurisdictional merger control assessment to assess the jurisdictions where the applicable merger control filing thresholds are met, therefore requiring merger control filings and approvals. Preliminary comments A few comments on the approach taken in this note: 1. For a transaction to be notifiable in a particular jurisdiction, it does not only have to meet the applicable filing thresholds but it also has to constitute a notifiable event under the rules of that jurisdiction. This note only addresses the data needed for an initial assessment of where the filing thresholds are met—it does not discuss the applicable rules that determine what kind of transactions constitute a notifiable event. In a nutshell, in most jurisdictions (including, most notably, the EU), transactions such as mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures are only a notifiable event if they bring about a lasting change in 'control' of the companies concerned (for more on the concept

Rent, the amount of which is calculated by reference to the turnover or profits of a business.
PRACTICE NOTES
A turnover rent (also known as a ‘percentage rent’) is a rent that varies depending on the amount of trade which is achieved at the premises that have been let to the tenant. Turnover rents are most commonly used by landlords of shopping centres, factory outlets and similar multi-tenanted retail environments. This is principally because these locations provide environments which landlords can more easily control and manipulate. Types of turnover rent There are various types of turnover rent. Which one to choose will depend on a variety of factors. The ‘100%’ turnover rent The rent payable by the tenant is calculated purely as a percentage of the tenant’s turnover. Service charge and insurance rent are usually paid in addition to the turnover rent. This type of turnover rent is often used as an incentive to get a tenant to take vacant space, eg on a ‘pop-up’ or ‘meanwhile’ basis. The ‘top-up’ turnover rent The rent is calculated as the greater of a fixed percentage of turnover or a percentage (invariably 100%) of the open market rent. Service
