OPERATING EXPENSE CAP. Except or real property taxes, insurance premiums, and utility charges (including, but not limited to, electricity, fuel, water, sewer, gas, etc.) the full pro rata share of which excess operating expenses Lessee shall pay as stated in sections 2.02 and 2.03 of this Lease, Lessor agrees that Lessee shall not pay, as its pro rata share of such excess operating expenses related to the remaining operating expenses described in said sections 2.02 and 2.03, an amount which is greater than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the amount of said remaining excess operating expenses paid by Lessee for the next previous year.
OPERATING EXPENSE CAP. Beginning in the year following the first year in which the Building is at least 90% occupied, Tenant’s Pro Rata Share of the Building’s Operating Expenses consisting of “Controllable Operating Expenses” (as hereinafter defined) shall not increase from one (1) calendar year to the next by more than five percent (5%) of the prior year’s Operating Expenses. The base year shall be the year in which 90% Building occupancy has been achieved and the Controllable Operating Expenses shall be annualized and Grossed-Up (based upon 100% occupancy). “Controllable Operating Expenses” shall mean all Operating Expenses, except for insurance premiums, utilities, all taxes including, without limitation, real estate taxes, personal property taxes and other governmental assessments and impositions, snow removal and non-recurring costs not within Landlord’s reasonable control that are not otherwise excluded from the definition of Operating Expenses. In no event shall there be any annual limit on increases to Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses which are not Controllable Operating Expenses.
OPERATING EXPENSE CAP. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, in no instance shall Tenant's total actual "controllable" operating expenses payable, or incurred during the term of this Lease and any extension thereof, increase by more than six percent (6%) over the controllable operating expenses payable during the prior twelve (12) month period of the Lease term.
OPERATING EXPENSE CAP. Notwithstanding anything in the Lease to the contrary, in no event shall Controllable Operating Expenses for any year during the Initial Term increase by more than 5% in excess of Controllable Operating Expenses for the immediately preceding year, on a compounding and cumulative basis. However, any increases in Operating Expenses not recovered by Landlord due to the foregoing limitation shall be carried forward into succeeding years during the Term (subject to the foregoing limitation) until fully recouped by Landlord. [For example, if Controllable Operating Expenses were $100.00 in 2012, then the total Controllable Operating Expenses that could be included in Operating Expenses in 2013 would be $105.00, for 2014 the amount would be $110.25, for 2015 the amount would be $115.76, and so on. In the preceding example, if Controllable Operating Expenses in both 2014 and 2015 were $112.00, then Landlord could include only $110.25 in Operating Expenses in 2014, but $113.75 (the Controllable Operating Expenses plus the carry-forward from 2014) in 2015.] “Controllable Operating Expenses” shall mean all Operating Expenses, excluding those Operating Expenses that in Landlord’s sole discretion and judgment may be subject to increases which are outside of Landlord’s control such as (but not limited to) utility expenses, snow removal expenses, insurance premiums, major repairs, security costs, janitorial costs, costs governed by collective bargaining, costs incurred due to requirements of Law or insurance carriers, the cost of employee benefits provided by Landlord to all Building personnel or costs incurred due to casualty or condemnation. At no time shall there be any cap on Taxes.
OPERATING EXPENSE CAP. Notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Landlord agrees that commencing January 1, 2005, the amount of Tenant’s Prorata Share calculated to be due under Section 2(d) hereunder attributable to “Controllable Operating Expenses” (as hereinafter defined) shall not exceed one hundred four percent (104%) of the amount of Controllable Operating Expenses properly chargeable to Tenant under this Lease for the immediately prior calendar year, subject to adjustment as provided below. For purposes of this Section 2(d)(ix), the term “properly chargeable” shall mean the amount of Controllable Operating Expenses for the prior calendar year which are charged to Tenant in accordance with the terms of this Section 2(d) for the prior calendar year, as limited by the application in such prior calendar year of the cap provided in this Section 2(d)(ix). For purposes of this Lease, “Controllable Operating Expenses” shall mean all Operating Expenses of any kind or nature other than ad valorem property taxes and other taxes and expenses pursuant to Section 2(d)(ii)(j) above, insurance premiums, unexpected non-routine repair costs, permitted capital improvement costs, charges and expenses for public utilities and waste disposal charges charged by third parties not affiliated with Landlord.
OPERATING EXPENSE CAP. For purposes of calculating additional rent under Section 6(b), the maximum increase in the amount of Controllable Operating Expenses (defined below) that may be included in calculating such additional rent for each calendar year after 2003 shall be limited to eight percent (8%) per calendar year on a cumulative, compounded basis; for example, the maximum amount of Controllable Operating Expenses that may be included in calculation of such additional rent for each 5
OPERATING EXPENSE CAP. Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses consisting of “Controllable Operating Expenses” (as hereinafter defined) shall not increase from one (1) calendar year to the next by more than ten percent (10%) per calendar year during the initial Term of this Lease on a cumulative basis utilizing the estimated Operating Expenses for 2008 as the base year amount. “Controllable Operating Expenses” shall mean all Operating Expenses, except for insurance premiums, all taxes which are Operating Expenses under this Lease including, without limitation, real estate taxes, personal property taxes and other governmental assessments and impositions, any windstorm restoration costs not covered by insurance, and costs of fuel consumption in connection with the use of the Generator. In no event shall there be any annual limit on increases to Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses which are not Controllable Operating Expenses. In the event Tenant extends the Term of this Lease beyond the initial term hereof, the base amount for purposes of calculating Tenant's Proportionate Share of Operating Expenses shall be the actual operating expenses for the first year of the extended Term, subject to the ten (10%) percent cumulative cap on Controllable Operating Expenses through the remainder of the extended Term. Additionally, any expenses deferred because of construction warranties (i.e. HVAC service contracts, elevator service contracts, fire/security service contracts, etc.) will be added back to the Operating Expenses prior to determining whether or not the controllable Operating Expense cap has been exceeded.
OPERATING EXPENSE CAP. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Lease, when determining Tenant's pro rata share of excess operating expenses for lease years subsequent to the first lease year, operating expenses may not increase more than fifteen percent (15%) from the immediately preceding lease year. Provided, the foregoing cap on operating expenses shall not apply to taxes and insurance. Tenant's pro rata share of the excess of these expenses shall always be based on the actual amount of such expenses.

If any such amounts attributable to periods during the term hereof are received by Landlord following the expiration of the term hereof (according to its terms and not as a result of an event of default, as hereinafter defined), Landlord agrees to forward to Tenant any amounts to which Tenant is entitled as and when received notwithstanding the fact that this Lease has so expired, provided Tenant has given to Landlord a valid forwarding address.
