However, in the case that the Lessee wishes to terminate this agreement early less than six (6) months prior to the intended early termination date, the Lessee may do so by paying to the Lessor the rent, common service fee and other expenses for the period up to the early termination date as well as the amount equal to the rent and common service fee for the period by which the Lessee's notification is short of the prescribed notification period.
In the case that the Lessee wishes to terminate this agreement early on or before December 31, 2023, the Lessee shall separately pay to the Lessor as an early termination penalty the amount of JPY 7,961,040 (excluding consumption tax etc.) in addition to complying with the procedure described above.
(2) In the case that the Lessee gives notification of termination prior to the starting date for calculation of the rent (January 1, 2022), the date of notification of termination shall be regarded as the starting date for calculation of the rent and the procedure described in Item (1) above shall apply.
(3) In the case that the Lessee gives notification of termination prior to the starting date for calculation of the common service fee (October 1, 2021), the date of notification of termination shall be regarded as the starting date for calculation of the common service fee and the procedure described in Item (1) above shall apply.
(4) Payment of the amounts described in Items (1) through (3) above shall be completed by the last day of the invoice month or by the date nominated by the Lessor.

(1) In the case that this agreement is canceled pursuant to Subarticle 21-1 or 21-2 on or after the execution date of this agreement and on or before December 31, 2023, the Lessee shall pay to the Lessor as a breach of contract penalty the amount of JPY 7,961,040 (excluding consumption tax), in addition to the amount equal to six (6) months of the rent and common service fee. However, payment of the said breach of contract penalty does not preclude the Lessor from claiming compensation from the Lessee.
(2) In the case that this agreement is canceled pursuant to Subarticle 21-1 or 21-2 on or after January 1, 2024, the Lessee shall pay to the Lessor the amount equal to six (6) months of the rent and common service fee as a breach of contract penalty. However, payment of the said breach of contract penalty does not preclude the Lessor from claiming compensation from the Lessee.

In witness whereof, the Lessor and the Lessee have caused this agreement to be executed, signed and sealed in duplicate so that each holds one copy.
