Additional Rent Commencing on the Commencement Date, for each calendar year of the Term (prorated for any calendar year falling partially within the Term), Tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent Landlord’s Insurance (as defined below) and Real Property Taxes (collectively known as “Additional Rent”). Prior to the Commencement Date and at least thirty (30) days prior to the beginning of each calendar year thereafter, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a written statement setting forth the following: (a) Landlord's estimate of ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s Additional Rent, and (b) a calculation of one-twelfth (1/12) of Landlord's estimate of ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s Additional Rent (“Monthly Estimated Rent”). Tenant shall pay to Landlord the Monthly Estimated Rent beginning on the Commencement Date and on the first day of every successive calendar month thereafter during the Term. Monthly Estimated Rent for a period of less than one month shall be prorated on a daily basis based on a three hundred sixty-five (365) day year. For each calendar year of the Term in which Tenant is responsible for paying Additional Rent, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant by written notice, delivered in accordance with Article 22 and within sixty (60) days after the end of such calendar year, a statement (“Landlord’s Statement”) in reasonable detail, including supportive documentation, setting forth (a) the amount of Tenant's actual responsibility for Additional Rent, and (b) the sum of Tenant's Monthly Estimated Rent payments made during the year. If the amount of Tenant's actual responsibility for Additional Rent exceeds the sum of Tenant's Monthly Estimated Rent payments, Tenant shall pay the deficiency to Landlord within forty-five (45) days after ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s receipt of such statement. If the sum of Tenant's Monthly Estimated Rent payments during the year exceeds the amount of Tenant's actual responsibility for Additional Rent, Landlord shall pay the excess to Tenant at the time Landlord furnishes the statement, or, if this Lease has not expired, may credit the excess toward the payments of Base Rent and ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s Monthly Estimated Rent next falling due. Landlord’s Statement shall be final and binding upon Landlord and Tenant unless Tenant objects to Landlord’s Statement within ninety (90) days from receipt. Landlord shall keep records showing all expenditures incurred as Additional Rent for each calendar year for a period of three (3) years following each year, and such records shall be made available for inspection and photocopying by Tenant and/or its agents during ordinary business hours at Landlord’s principal office. Any dispute with respect to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'s calculations of Tenant's actual responsibility for Additional Rent must be raised by Tenant within ninety (90) days of receipt of Landlord’s Statement in accordance with the delivery requirements in Section 12.2 and shall be resolved by the parties through consultation in good faith within sixty (60) days of written notice of disputed charge. However, if the dispute cannot be resolved within such period, the parties shall request an audit of the disputed matter from an independent, certified public accountant selected by both Landlord and Tenant, whose decision shall be based on generally accepted accounting principles and shall be final and binding on the parties. If there is a variance of five percent (5%) or more between said decision and Landlord's determination of Tenant's actual responsibility for Additional Rent, Landlord shall pay the costs of said audit and shall credit any overpayment toward the next Base Rent and/or Monthly Estimated Rent payment falling due or pay such overpayment to Tenant within thirty (30) days. If the variance is less than five percent (5%), Tenant shall pay the cost of said audit.
