1. All the systems installed in or serving the Leased Property, as defined in the Lease Agreement, as well as the rest of the area leased to the Lessee under a lease agreement dated March 6, 2000 or part thereof, and which is not included in the Leased Property as defined in the Lease Agreement, hereinafter: the “Adjacent Unit” and the “Common Systems”, shall serve the parties and be maintained by them jointly and the provisions of this agreement shall apply thereto.

 

2. The parties undertake to strictly adhere to the correct and careful use of the Common Systems.

 

3. No use whatsoever shall be made of the Common Systems nor shall any other action be taken which could deny the other parties use of the Common Systems or restrict such use.

 

4. The parties shall bear the costs of such regular maintenance and repairs as are necessary from time to time to ensure the regular and proper working order of the Common Systems, according to the proportion that the area actually occupied by each of them bears to the total area of the Leased Property, as defined in the previous lease agreement.

8. The parties shall strictly maintain the cleanliness and maintenance of the lobbies shared by the Leased Property and the Adjacent Unit, and shall bear such expenses as are necessary for such purpose from time to time, as provided in Section 4 above.
