7. “Common Area Factor (CAF)” means a conversion factor determined and applied by the building owner to determine the rentable square feet for the leased space. The CAF is expressed as a percentage of the difference between the amount of rentable square feet (SF) and ABOA SF, divided by the ABOA SF.

(a) If the Government fails to occupy any portion of the leased premises or vacates the premises in whole or in part prior to expiration of the term of the lease, the rental rate and the base for operating cost adjustments will be reduced using the figure specified in the “Rate for Adjustment for

Vacant Leased Premises” paragraph of this Lease.

(b) If no rate reduction has been established in this lease, the rate will be reduced by that portion of the costs per ABOA square foot of operating expenses not required to maintain the space.

(c) Said reduction shall occur after the Government gives 30 calendar days’ prior notice to the Lessor and shall continue in effect until the Government occupies the vacant premises or the lease expires or is terminated.

2.09 OPERATING COSTS ADJUSTMENT (JUN 2012)

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.

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.

C. In the event of any decreases in the Cost of Living Index occurring during the term of the occupancy under the Lease, the ren tal 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.
