At its sole option, the Government may abandon property in the Space following expiration or earlier termination (full or partial) of the Lease, in which case the property will become the property of the Lessor and the Government will be relieved of any liability in connection therewith.
2.04 CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP/NOVATION (FEB 2026)

2.06 REAL ESTATE TAX ADJUSTMENT (MAY 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 shall 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.
LEASE NO. 36C25025L0017, PAGE 12 LESSOR: ________ GOVERNMENT: ________ GSA TEMPLATE L100
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 shall 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 shall 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 shall 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 shall 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 shall pay its share of any increases and shall 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 shall 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). If a Tax Abatement comes into effect after the date of award of the Lease, the amount of the tax adjustment shall 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. The Government shall pay the tax adjustment in a single annual lump sum payment to the Lessor. In the event that this tax adjustment results in a credit owed to the Government, the Government may elect to receive payment in the form of a rental credit or lump sum payment.
1. If the Property contains more than one separately assessed parcel, then more than one tax adjustment shall be determined based upon the Percentage of Occupancy, Real Estate Tax Base, and Real Estate Taxes for each respective parcel.
2. After commencement of the Lease term, the Lessor shall provide to the LCO copies of all real estate tax bills for the Property, all documentation of Tax Abatements, credits, or refunds, if any, and all notices which may affect the assessed valuation of the Property, for the Tax Year prior to the commencement of the Lease Term, and all such documentation for every year following. Lessor acknowledges that the LCO shall rely on the completeness and accuracy of these submissions in order to establish the Real Estate Tax Base and to determine tax adjustments. The LCO may memorialize the establishment of the Real Estate Tax Base by issuing a unilateral administrative lease amendment indicating the base year, the amount of the Real Estate Tax Base, and the Government's Percentage of Occupancy.
3. The Real Estate Tax Base is subject to adjustment when increases or decreases to Real Estate Taxes in any
Tax Year are attributable to (a) improvements or renovations to the Property not required by this Lease, or
LEASE NO. 36C25025L0017, PAGE 13 LESSOR: ________ GOVERNMENT: ________ GSA TEMPLATE L100
(b) changes in net operating income for the Property not derived from this Lease. If either condition results in a change to the Real Estate Taxes, the LCO may re-establish the Real Estate Tax Base as the Unadjusted Real Estate Taxes for the Tax Year the Property is reassessed under such condition, less the amount by which the Unadjusted Real Estate Taxes for the Tax Year prior to reassessment exceeds the prior Real Estate Tax Base.
4. If this Lease includes any options to renew the term of the Lease, or be otherwise extended, the Real Estate
Tax Base for determining tax adjustments during the renewal term or extension shall be the last Real Estate Tax Base established during the base term of the Lease.
5. If any Real Estate Taxes for the Property are retroactively reduced by a Taxing Authority during the term of the Lease, the Government shall be entitled to a proportional share of any tax refunds to which the Lessor is entitled, calculated in accordance with this Paragraph. Lessor acknowledges that it has an affirmative duty to disclose to the Government any decreases in the Real Estate Taxes paid for the Property during the term of the Lease. Lessor shall annually provide to the LCO all relevant tax records for determining whether a tax adjustment is due, irrespective of whether it seeks an adjustment in any Tax Year.
6. If the Lease terminates before the end of a Tax Year, or if rent has been suspended, payment for the real estate tax increase due because of this section for the Tax Year will be prorated based on the number of days that the Lease and the rent were in effect. Any credit due the Government after the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease shall be made by a lump sum payment to the Government or as a rental credit to any succeeding Lease, as determined in the LCO's sole discretion. Lessor shall remit any lump sum payment to the Government within 15 calendar days of payment or credit by the Taxing Authority to Lessor or Lessor’s designee. If the credit due to the Government is not paid by the due date, interest shall accrue on the late payment at the rate established by the Secretary of the Treasury under Section 12 of the Contract Disputes Act of 1978, as amended (41 USC § 611), that is in effect on the day after the due date. The interest penalty shall accrue daily on the amount of the credit and shall be compounded in 30-day increments inclusive from the first day after the due date through the payment date. The Government shall have the right to pursue the outstanding balance of any tax credit using all such collection methods as are available to the United States to collect debts. Such collection rights shall survive the expiration of this Lease.
7. In order to obtain a tax adjustment, the Lessor shall furnish the LCO with copies of all paid tax receipts, or other similar evidence of payment acceptable to the LCO, and a proper invoice (as described in GSA 3517, General Clauses, 552.270-31, Prompt Payment) for the requested tax adjustment, including the calculation thereof. All such documents must be received by the LCO within 60 calendar days after the last date the real estate tax payment is due from the Lessor to the Taxing Authority without payment of penalty or interest.
FAILURE TO SUBMIT THE PROPER INVOICE AND EVIDENCE OF PAYMENT WITHIN SUCH TIME
FRAME SHALL CONSTITUTE A WAIVER OF THE LESSOR’S RIGHT TO RECEIVE A TAX ADJUSTMENT
PURSUANT TO THIS PARAGRAPH FOR THE TAX YEAR AFFECTED.
D. Tax Appeals. If the Government occupies more than 50 percent of the Building by virtue of this and any other
Government Lease(s), the Government may, upon reasonable notice, direct the Lessor to initiate a tax appeal, or the Government may elect to contest the assessed valuation on its own behalf or jointly on behalf of Government and the Lessor. If the Government elects to contest the assessed valuation on its own behalf or on behalf of the Government and the Lessor, the Lessor shall cooperate fully with this effort, including, without limitation, furnishing to the Government information necessary to contest the assessed valuation in accordance with the filing requirements of the Taxing Authority, executing documents, providing documentary and testimonial evidence, and verifying the accuracy and completeness of records. If the Lessor initiates an appeal at the direction of the Government, the Government shall have the right to approve the selection of counsel who shall represent the Lessor with regard to such appeal, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and the Lessor shall be entitled to a credit in the amount of its reasonable expenses in pursuing the appeal.
2.07 ADDITIONAL POST-AWARD FINANCIAL AND TECHNICAL DELIVERABLES (FEB 2026)
