  (iv)

thereafter and till the end of the renewed Term, Tenant shall make Fixed Maintenance Charge payments for the Premises on the basis of calendar quarters, in advance in accordance with Article 3.6 of this Lease. The amount of Fixed Maintenance Charge due for a payment period shall be calculated as the aggregate of:

 

 

the Fixed Maintenance Charge for the Premises 1 and the Premises 2, calculated by multiplying then-effective rate of Fixed Maintenance Charge in respect of the Premises 1 and the Premises 2 per square meter per year by amount of square meters of Tenant’s Rentable Area 1 and Tenant’s Rentable Area 2, dividing the result by number of days in that year and multiplying the result by the actual number of days in that payment period, and

Herewith new Fixed Maintenance Charge rates shall be determined annually starting from June 01, 2019 and each following June 01 in respect of the Premises 1 and the Premises 2 and new Fixed Maintenance Charge rate for the Premises 3 — starting from July 01, 2019 and each following July 01 according to Fixed Maintenance Charge Rate Indexation. The Fixed Maintenance Charge Rate Indexation shall mean annual 5% (two percent) increase of then-current rates of Fixed Maintenance Charge. Upon recalculation the rates shall be used with two decimals. Each such recalculation of Fixed Maintenance Charge rates will be effected by adjusting the amount of Fixed Maintenance Charge due from Tenant for the payment period (and subsequent periods in that 12-months period) in the relevant invoices issued by Landlord.

For avoidance of doubts, for the purpose of the first Fixed Maintenance Charge Rate Indexation, to be made on June 01, 2019 in respect of the Premises 1 and the Premises 2, and on July 01, 2019 in respect of the Premises 3, the Fixed Maintenance Charge rate in the amount of USD 135 (one hundred thirty five US Dollars) per square meter per annum shall be used”.

 

- 49 -


Due to change of the Commencement Date 2 to November 01, 2018 the Parties hereby agree that Landlord’s obligation to return to Tenant overpaid part of the second instalment of the first Fixed Maintenance Charge payment (in respect of the Premises 2) in the amount of USD 21 027,45 (twenty-one thousand twenty-seven and 45/100 US Dollars) plus 18% VAT corresponding to payment for the period from September 01, 2018 till October 31, 2018 inclusive, will be fully set off against Tenant’s obligation to pay to Landlord respective part of the second Fixed Maintenance Charge payment for the Premises 1 and the Premises 2, specified in sub-item (ii) of item (a) of Article 4.1 of the Lease.
