Such additional rent by reason of tax increases shall be payable by Tenant upon presentation to Tenant of copies of paid tax statements for the base year and for the year for which payment is demanded. The proportion of such increase payable by the Tenant shall be based on the ratio which the number of rentable square feet of area occupied by the Tenant in the building bears to the total number of rentable square feet of area in the entire building (Tenant's Proportionate Share). If the term of this lease shall commence or terminate other than on the first or last day of a calendar year, Tenant shall pay for said calendar year, that portion of such increases in taxes, if any, proportionate to the number of months of tenancy during such year. Tenant's proportionate share of such taxes shall be paid within thirty (30) days after receipt of an invoice from Landlord .

d.During the second and succeeding calendar years Tenant shall pay monthly in advance, as additional rent for each such calendar year (or to the expiration date of this lease, whichever first occurs), an amount per month equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of Tenant's Proportionate Share of Landlord's estimated Operating Expenses for said calendar year over the Base Amount. The amount of such additional rent not determined at the beginning of any calendar year shall be brought current by Tenant with fifteen (15) days after the amount is determined. If by reason of such advance monthly payments Tenant shall have paid in excess of its Proportionate Share of excess Operating Expenses for the fiscal year, Landlord will, when the amount of Operating Expenses for such calendar year is determined, reimburse Tenant the amount of the excess paid. Should Landlord fail to pay Tenant the excess paid within thirty (30) days, then Tenant shall be entitled to credits in base rent until such time that the credit has been offset from base rent. If it is determined that Tenant has not paid Tenant's Proportionate Share in full by reason of such advance monthly payments, then Tenant will pay the difference in one lump sum within fifteen (15) days after receipt of Landlord's statement.

If it is determined by arbitration, or by agreement between the Landlord and Tenant, that said premises are not unquestionable untenantable for ninety (90) days or 20% of the unexpired term, whichever is applicable, then Landlord shall restore said premises to substantially the same condition in which they existed prior to such damage, at Landlord's own expense, with all reasonable speed and promptness, and in such case a just and proportionate part of said rental shall be abated until said premises have been restored, provided, however, that in the event the damage to said premises has not resulted in a termination of this lease under the above provisions and such damage is caused by the act of Tenant, as aforesaid, during such period of restoration or rebuilding there shall be no rent abatement hereunder. In determining what constitutes reasonable speed and promptness, consideration shall be given to delays caused by strikes, adjustment of insurance, and other causes beyond the Landlord's control. In no event shall the Landlord be required to restore any alterations, additions or improvements made by or for the Tenant and not required by this lease to be furnished by Landlord, nor any trade fixtures, furniture, equipment or other property belonging to Tenant.
