Base Year Adjustment Clause Samples

A Base Year Adjustment clause establishes a reference year, known as the base year, for calculating future changes in costs, expenses, or rent under a contract or lease. Typically, this clause is used in commercial leases to determine the tenant’s share of increases in operating expenses or taxes by comparing current costs to those incurred during the base year. For example, if property taxes or maintenance fees rise after the base year, the tenant may be responsible for paying only the portion of the increase above the base year amount. The core function of this clause is to fairly allocate cost increases between parties, ensuring that tenants are not charged for expenses that existed prior to their occupancy while allowing landlords to recover increases in operating costs over time.
