governmental or quasi-governmental authority having jurisdiction; provided, any such amortization or <br /> S depreciation shall be calculated based on the useful life of such improvement and shall utilize a rate of <br /> interest that is not in excess of two percent over the prime rate of interest publicly announced by First Bank <br /> National Association as being available to its best corporate customers as of the date of the completion of <br /> such improvements or installation. Notwithstanding the foregoing,"Operating Costs"shall not include the <br /> following:(i)costs of alterations of tenants'premises;(ii)costs of capital improvements and costs of curing <br /> construction defects that are not specifically permitted in the foregoing definition of Operating Costs; (iii) <br /> interest and principal payments on mortgages, and other debt costs; (iv) real estate brokers' leasing <br /> commissions;(v)attorneys'fees incurred by Landlord in negotiation and enforcement of other leases for the <br /> Property; and (vi) any cost or expenditure (or portion thereof) for which Landlord is reimbursed, whether <br /> by insurance proceeds or otherwise. <br /> (a) Calculation of Proportionate Share. For purposes hereof, Tenant's Proportionate <br /> Share shall be equal to the quotient of a fraction,the numerator of which is the total <br /> leasable square feet in the Premises, and the denominator,of which is the total <br /> number of leasable square feet in the Property. Promptly after the Commencement <br /> Date and during December of each year or as soon thereafter as practicable, <br /> Landlord shall give Tenant written notice of its reasonable estimate of Tenant's <br /> Proportionate Share of Operating Costs for the ensuing calendar year.On or before <br /> the first day of each month thereafter, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional <br /> rent one-twelfth(1/12th)of such estimated amounts,provided that if such notice is <br /> not given in December.Tenant shall continue to pay on the basis of the prior year's <br /> estimate until the first day of the month after the month in which such notice is <br /> given. If at any time it reasonably appears to Landlord that the actual amount of <br /> • Tenant's Proportionate Share of Operating Costs for the then current calendar year <br /> will vary from Landlord's estimate by more than five percent(5%),Landlord may, <br /> by written notice to Tenant, revise its estimate for such year, and subsequent <br /> payments by Tenant for such year shall be based upon such revised estimate.Within <br /> ninety (90) days after the close of each calendar year or as soon thereafter as <br /> practicable,Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a summary of the total Operating Costs <br /> for the previous calendar year and Tenant's Proportionate Share thereof. If such <br /> summary shows an amount due from Tenant that is less than the estimated payments <br /> • previously paid by Tenant, the amount of such excess shall be applied as a credit <br /> against the installment payments of Tenant's Proportionate Share of Operating <br /> Costs that next become due. If such summary shows an amount due from Tenant <br /> that is more than the estimated payments previously paid by Tenant. Tenant shall <br /> pay the deficiency to Landlord, as additional rent, within thirty (30) days after <br /> delivery of the summary. <br /> (b) Books and Records. Tenant shall have the right to examine Landlord's books and <br /> records of Operating Costs during normal business hours within sixty (60) days <br /> following the furnishing of the summary to Tenant. Unless Tenant takes written <br /> exception to any item within sixty (60) days following the furnishing of the <br /> summary to Tenant(which item shall be paid in any event),such summary shall be <br /> deemed final and accepted by Tenant.If Landlord,in its sole discretion,selects the <br /> accrual accounting method rather than the cash accounting method for some <br /> operating expense purposes, such Operating Costs shall be deemed to have been <br /> • paid when such expenses have accrued. <br /> 8 <br />
