Base Rent Adjustment. A. Base Rent will be adjusted beginning one year following the Commencement Date (as stated in the Basic Terms) each year thereafter, including any renewal periods, based on the annual percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (“CPI-U”). In no event will the annual adjustment result in Base Rent being less than the amount charged during the prior year or more than 3% above the amount charged during the prior year. The most recent available CPI-U as of first anniversary of the Commencement Date and on an annual basis thereafter for each year of the Term and any renewal terms, calculated over the preceding twelve months, shall be used to adjust the Rent for the next year. The Tenant Improvement Rent shall not be increased by the CPI-U (only the Base Rent).
