Clause    Of the rent of SEK see App. 1 stipulated in the Lease Agreement 100% or SEK ____________ shall constitute the base rent. During the period of the Lease Agreement, a surcharge to the rent, constituting a certain percentage of the base rent, shall be payable with regard to changes in the consumer price index (using the total index for 1980 as a base) according to the following:
    

•      For lease agreements commencing during the period 1/1 - 30/6 the base rent is deemed to be adjusted to the index level for that of the previous October.

 

•      For lease agreements commencing during the period 1/7 - 31/12 the base rent is deemed to be adjusted to the index level for October of that year.

 

•      The index level for the October that the base rent is deemed to be adjusted to, as shown above, becomes the base figure unless otherwise agreed by designating a year as per the following. Alternative agreed base figure: the index level for October                     .

     Should the index level any following October have risen in relation to the base figure, the surcharge shall be calculated on the percentage by which the index has changed in relation to the base figure. Future surcharges due will be based on the changes in the index, the rental change to be calculated on the percentage change between the base figure and the index level for the October in question.
     The rent payable shall nevertheless never be adjusted below that stipulated in the Lease Agreement. A change in the rent is always effective from 1st January following an adjustment occasioned by a recomputation due to a change in the Index the previous October.
     The instructions in page 2 are applicable to the agreement.

Instructions in respect of Index Clause for non-residential premises

 

Base Rent

 

Whether all or a part of the rent stipulated in the Lease Agreement shall consist of base rent, is a matter for negotiation and can depend on the terms of the Lease Agreement (for example the quantum of the rent expressed as SEK/sq m/per annum and also for what other obligations the Tenant is responsible).

 

Base Figure

 

The index level for the October that the base rent is deemed to be aligned to becomes the base figure, unless otherwise agreed by designating a year (as per conditions stated in page 1).

 

Comparison of index levels shall be done as soon as the annual October index is published. During recent years the October index has been published by the middle of November.

 

Calculation of the surcharge

 

1) Calculate the difference between the relevant October index and the base figure.

 

2) If the difference is positive, divide the difference by the base figure.

 

3) The surcharge is calculated by multiplying the base rent by the factor thus determined.

 

Example

 

Calculation of the surcharge for 2002

 

Presume that the base rent is SEK 100 000 pa (per annum) and is aligned to the consumer price index for October 1999, which is 259,7 (base figure). The October index for 2001 is 269,1.

 

  1. Calculate the difference between the index figure 269,1 and 259,7. The difference is positive and amounts to 9,4.

 

  2. Divide 9,4 by 259,7 and multiply the quotient (without rounding off) by the base rent SEK 100 000. The result is SEK 3 619:56, which according to the clause becomes the surcharge for 2002.

 

Alternative A: Assume that the consumer price index for October 2001 had been lower than the year before for example 262,0 (the index for October 2000 was 262,6).

 

The Difference between the assumed index level 262,0 and the base figure 259,7 would still be positive and amount to 2,3. The quotient between 2,3 and the base figure 259,7, multiplied by the base rent would have amounted to a surcharge of SEK 885:63. The total rent would however have been lower than for 2001.

 

Alternative B: Assume that the consumer price index for October 2001 had instead been lower than the base figure 259,7 for example 259,5.

 

The difference between 259,5 and the base figure 259,7 would then have been negative. No surcharge would apply. The rent stated in the Lease Agreement would apply.
