For purposes of calculating Tenant's Additional Rental pursuant to Paragraph 19 of the Lease, Landlord and Tenant hereby agree that, commencing with the first full calendar year of the Lease Term, Operating Expenses (except for Uncontrollable Costs, as hereinafter defined) shall be deemed not to increase by more than four and one-half percent (4 1/2%) herein referred to as the "Operating Expense Cap" from one calendar year to the next calendar year, regardless of any actual increases in Operating Expenses; provided, however, in the event that in any calendar year any such increase in Operating Expenses is in fact greater than the Operating Expense Cap (any such increase in excess of the Operating Expense Cap being hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Carryover Percentage"), Landlord shall have the right to add all of the Carryover Percentage (or such portion thereof as will not produce a total increase in Operating Expenses in excess of the Operating Expense Cap) to the increases in Operating Expenses occurring over any of the following years of the Lease Term in which such increases in Operating Expenses are less than the Operating Expense Cap, on a cumulative basis until all such Carryover Percentages have been used to increase Operating Expenses for purposes of calculating Tenant's Additional Rental payable pursuant to Paragraph 19 of the Lease. For example, if the actual increase in Operating Expenses during the second calendar year of the Lease Term is ten percent (10%) and if, for purposes of this example, the Operating Expense Cap is eight percent (8%) (thus creating a Carryover Percentage of two percent (2%), which may be carried forward to future years by Landlord), and if in the third calendar year of the Lease Term the actual increase in the Operating Expenses is six percent (6%), then during the third calendar year of the Lease Term Operating Expenses shall be deemed to increase by eight percent (8%), such eight percent (8%) increase arising from adding the six percent (6%) increase in Operating Expenses which occurred in the third calendar year to the two percent (2%) Carryover Percentage from the second calendar year. The foregoing provisions of this Section notwithstanding, Taxes, all utility costs and expenses, including, without limitation, those for electricity and other fuels and forms of power or energy, water charges, sewer and waste disposal, and the cost of all casualty, liability and other insurance applicable to the Project and Landlord's personal property used in connection with the Project (all of the foregoing are herein collectively referred to as "Uncontrollable Costs") shall not be subject to any limitation or cap, and, accordingly, the total dollar increase in Operating Expenses, and Tenant's Additional Rental payable pursuant to Paragraph 19 of the Lease, for any and each calendar year during the Lease Term shall be calculated without any limitation or cap on Uncontrollable Costs.
