The rent will be paid annually, in advance, to the city's financial office by the end of April each year. The rent will be tied to the official consumer price index (1972 = 100) where the consumer price index for January 1979 is considered the base index in the amount of 217.8. The rent will be adjusted based on the change from the previous year's average consumer price index. However, the revision will only affect the rent if the deviation from the basic index is at least 2%. During the first five years, the increase in rent must not be more than one half of the index change. 4 The right to rent the property with all associated rights may be transferred to another person without permission from the city.

The need for water has been calculated at 250 m(3) /day and any expansion from this volume will be agreed upon separately. The direction of industrial waste water to the city's sewage network must occur only based on terms which are agreed upon separately. 8 The company promises to research and decide all issues related to the processing of waste from the property. Within the framework of the Waste Processing Act, the city promises, to give the company permission to direct waste, which has determined to be solid, to the city's waste processing and land fill site for solid waste.
