electricity (including power);

 

   

thermal energy (hot water supply);

 

   

thermal energy (heating) necessary for maintaining the necessary temperature in Premises during the cold time of the year of not lower than +18° (considering that the Lessee minimizes temperature losses in premises (ensures air tightness when closing dock gates after loading/unloading the vehicles);

 

12


   

thermal energy necessary for maintaining the necessary temperature in the Warehousing Premises during the warm time of the year of not lower than +25°C (considering that the Lessee minimizes temperature losses in premises (ensures air tightness when closing dock gates after loading/unloading the vehicles);

 

   

water consumption for cold and hot water supply;

If the electric energy (including power) is generated by the Lessor, the cost of production of utility in terms of electric energy (including power) is calculated on the basis of actual costs of the Lessor for production of one unit of electric energy (including power).

The cost of electric energy is compensated by the Lessee and defined by the Lessor as the actual price of electric energy and power received in each i reporting period and is calculated using the following formula:

Cact = Wact*Tact,

where:

 

   

Wact is the volume of electric energy actually consumed in each i reporting period;

 

   

Tact is the given price (including VAT) based on the price of the Guaranteeing provider in the reporting period for the electric energy and power for consumers of this price category.

In order to avoid any doubt the Lessor is not entitled to compensate at the expense of the Lessee any expenses per one unit of Utility Payments, namely for electricity supply (electric energy, including power), water consumption (cold and hot water supply), water removal (receipt of drainage), heat supply (thermal energy) exceeding the average market rates of providers of such utilities per one unit for similar facilities in the Aksay district of Rostov region.

The scope of the actually consumed utilities shall be determined based on the readings of the respective metering devices installed within the boundaries of the Premises.

In case of no utility metering units installed, the scope (amount) consumed utility services shall be determined by calculation in proportion to the Lessee’s share in the Building.
