Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant shall be entitled to receive overtime HVAC without being required to pay any Additional Charges therefor on up to twelve (12) occasions (each such occasion being of a duration of four (4) hours and applying with respect to four (4) floors in the Premises) during each calendar year to occur during the term of this Lease (prorated on the basis of one (1) such occasion per month with respect to any partial calendar year to occur during the term of this Lease).
