The Government may return to the Lessor any unused portion of the TIA and/or BSAC in exchange for a decrease in rent according to the agreed-upon amortization rate over the Firm Term.
B. The Government may elect to make lump sum payments for any or all work covered by the TIA. That part of the TIA amortized in the rent must be reduced accordingly. At any time after occupancy and during the Firm Term of the Lease, the Government, at its sole discretion, may elect to pay lump sum for any part or all of the remaining unpaid amortized balance of the TIA. If the Government elects to make a lump sum payment for the TIA after occupancy, the payment of the TIA by the Government will result in a decrease in the rent according to the amortization rate over the Firm Term of the Lease.
C. If it is anticipated that the Government will spend more than the identified TIA and/or BSAC, the Government may elect to:

3. Negotiate an increase in the rent.
D. The Lessor has agreed to total TI pricing of $XX,XXX based on the Agency�s Requirements and design schematic included in Exhibit X. This amount is amortized in the rent over the Firm Term of this Lease at an interest rate of X percent per year.
E. The TI Unit Prices listed in Exhibit X will be used to make the adjustment for variances between TI turnkey pricing based on the Agency�s
Requirements and the approved design intent drawings. The prices quoted will also be used to order alterations during the first year of the Lease. The prices quoted must be the cost to furnish, install, and maintain each item, unless otherwise specified. These prices may be indexed or renegotiated to apply to subsequent years of the Lease upon mutual agreement of the Lessor and the Government. Final rent calculations will be reconciled and the Lease will be amended after acceptance of the Space.
F. The Government may elect to make lump sum payments for any or all work covered by the TI scope. That part of the TI amortized in the rent must be reduced accordingly. At any time after occupancy and during the Firm Term of the Lease, the Government, at its sole discretion, may elect to pay lump sum for any part or all of the remaining unpaid amortized balance of the TI. If the Government elects to make a lump sum payment for the TI after occupancy, the payment of the TI by the Government will result in a decrease in the rent according to the amortization rate over the Firm Term of the Lease.
G. The Lessor has agreed to total TI pricing of $XX,XXX based on the approved DIDs included in Exhibit X. This amount is amortized in the rent over the Firm Term of this Lease at an interest rate of X percent per year.
H. The Government must have the right to make lump sum payments for any or all work covered by the TI scope. That part of the TI amortized in the rent must be reduced accordingly. At any time after occupancy and during the Firm Term of the Lease, the Government, at its sole discretion, may elect to pay lump sum for any part or all of the remaining unpaid amortized balance of the TI. If the Government elects to make a lump sum payment for the TI after occupancy, the payment of the TI by the Government will result in a decrease in the rent according to the amortization rate over the Firm Term of the Lease.

C. The Government, the original Lessor (Transferor), and the new owner or assignee (Transferee) must execute a Novation Agreement providing for the transfer of Transferor's rights and obligations under the Lease to the Transferee. When executed on behalf of the Government, a Novation Agreement will be made part of the Lease via Lease Amendment.

2.05 OPERATING COSTS ADJUSTMENT (FEB 2026)
A. Beginning with the second year of the Lease and each year thereafter, the Government must pay annual incremental adjusted rent for changes in costs for cleaning services, supplies, materials, maintenance, trash removal, landscaping, water, sewer charges, heating, electricity, and certain administrative expenses attributable to occupancy.
B. The amount of adjustment will be determined by multiplying the base rate by the annual percent of change in the Cost-of-Living Index. The percent change will be computed by comparing the index figure published for the month prior to the Lease Term Commencement Date with the index figure published for the month prior which begins each successive 12-month period. For example, a Lease which commences in June of 2005 would use the index published for May of 2005, and that figure would be compared with the index published for May of 2006, May of 2007, and so on, to determine the percent change. The Cost-of-Living Index will be measured by the Department of Labor revised Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W), U.S. city average, all items, (1982 to 1984 = 100) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Payment will be made with the monthly installment of fixed rent. Rental adjustments will be effective on the anniversary date of the Lease; however, payment of the adjusted rental rate will become due on the first workday of the second month following the publication of the Cost-of-Living Index for the month prior to the commencement of each 12-month period.
C. In the event of any decreases in the Cost-of-Living Index occurring during the term of the occupancy under the Lease, the rental amount will be reduced accordingly. The amount of such reductions will be determined in the same manner as increases in rent provided under this paragraph.
D. If the Government exercises an option to extend the Lease term at the same rate as that of the original term, the option price will be based on the adjustment during the original term. Annual adjustments will continue.

2.06 REAL ESTATE TAX ADJUSTMENT (FEB 2026)
A. Purpose. This paragraph provides for adjustment in the rent (tax adjustment) to account for increases or decreases in Real Estate Taxes for the
Property after the establishment of the Real Estate Tax Base, as those terms are defined herein. Tax adjustments must be calculated in accordance with this paragraph.
B. Definitions. The following definitions apply to the use of the terms within this paragraph:
1. Property is defined as the land and Buildings in which the Premises are located, including all Appurtenant Areas (e.g., parking areas to which the Government is granted rights).
2. Real Estate Taxes are those taxes that are levied upon the owners of real property by a Taxing Authority (as hereinafter defined) of a state or local Government on an ad valorem basis to raise general revenue for funding the provision of government services. The term excludes, without limitation, special assessments for specific purposes, assessments for business improvement districts, and/or community development assessments.
3. Taxing Authority is a state, commonwealth, territory, county, city, parish, or political subdivision thereof, authorized by law to levy, assess, and collect Real Estate Taxes.
4. Tax Year refers to the 12-month period adopted by a Taxing Authority as its fiscal year for assessing Real Estate Taxes on an annual basis.
5. Tax Abatement is an authorized reduction in the Lessor's liability for Real Estate Taxes below that determined by applying the generally applicable real estate tax rate to the Fully Assessed (as hereinafter defined) valuation of the Property.
6. Unadjusted Real Estate Taxes are the full amount of Real Estate Taxes that would be assessed for the Property for one full Tax Year without regard to the Lessor's entitlement to any Tax Abatements (except if such Tax Abatement came into effect after the date of award of the Lease), and not including any late charges, interest or penalties. If a Tax Abatement comes into effect after the date of award of the Lease, "unadjusted Real Estate Taxes" are the full amount of Real Estate Taxes assessed for the Property for one full Tax Year, less the amount of such Tax Abatement, and not including any late charges, interest, or penalties.
7. Real Estate Tax Base is the unadjusted Real Estate Taxes for the first full Tax Year following the commencement of the Lease term. If the Real Estate Taxes for that Tax Year are not based upon a Full Assessment of the Property, then the Real Estate Tax Base must be the Unadjusted Real Estate Taxes for the Property for the first full Tax Year for which the Real Estate Taxes are based upon a Full Assessment. Such first full Tax Year may be hereinafter referred to as the Tax Base Year. Alternatively, the Real Estate Tax Base may be an amount negotiated by the parties that reflects an agreed upon base for a Fully Assessed value of the Property.
8. The Property is deemed to be Fully Assessed (and Real Estate Taxes are deemed to be based on a Full Assessment) only when a
Taxing Authority has, for the purpose of determining the Lessor's liability for Real Estate Taxes, determined a value for the Property taking into account the value of all improvements contemplated for the Property pursuant to the Lease, and issued to the Lessor a tax bill or other notice of levy wherein the Real Estate Taxes for the full Tax Year are based upon such Full Assessment. At no time prior to the issuance of such a bill or notice must the Property be deemed Fully Assessed.
9. Percentage of Occupancy refers to that portion of the Property exclusively occupied or used by the Government pursuant to the Lease.
For Buildings, the Percentage of Occupancy is determined by calculating the ratio of the RSF occupied by the Government pursuant to the Lease to the total RSF in the Building or Buildings so occupied and must not take into account the Government's ancillary rights including, but not limited to, parking or roof space for antennas (unless facilities for such ancillary rights are separately assessed). This percentage must be subject to adjustment to take into account increases or decreases for Space leased by the Government or for rentable space on the Property.
C. Adjustment for changes in Real Estate Taxes. After the Property is Fully Assessed, the Government must pay its share of any increases and must receive its share of any decreases in the Real Estate Taxes for the Property, such share of increases or decreases to be referred to herein as "tax adjustment." The amount of the tax adjustment must be determined by multiplying the Government's Percentage of Occupancy by the difference between the current year Unadjusted Real Estate Taxes and the Real Estate Tax Base, less the portion of such difference not paid due to a Tax Abatement (except if a Tax Abatement comes into effect after the date of award of the Lease).
