3.1 The Service Charge payable by the Tenant for any Accounting Period shall be a fair and proper proportion of the Service Cost attributable to the Premises from time to time as properly determined by a suitably qualified surveyor or auditor appointed by the Management Company (acting as expert) (and so in proportion for any Accounting Period not falling wholly within the Term the Service Cost in any such case being deemed to accrue on a day to day basis for the purpose of apportionment)

3.2 If at any time and from time to time during the Term the method or basis of calculating or ascertaining the cost of any item of the Services shall alter or the basis of calculating or ascertaining the Service Cost in relation to any item of the Services shall change and as a result it is reasonable in the interests of good estate management that there be a variation of the calculation of the Service Charge in order to achieve a fairer and better apportionment of the Service Cost amongst the tenants of the Building then and in every such case a suitably qualified surveyor or accountant appointed by the Management Company (acting as expert) may vary and amend the Service Charge and make appropriate adjustments thereto provided always that in the event of any dispute between the Management Company and the Tenant and the other tenants of the Building or any of them the same shall be referred to the Expert for determination (the Expert to act as an expert and not as an arbitrator) whose decision shall save in the case of manifest error or gross negligence be binding on the parties (including his decisions as to the responsibility for his costs)

3.3 The fair proportion to be determined by the Management Company in paragraph 3.1 above shall be determined on the basis that all accommodation within the Building let or occupied or designed contracted or adapted for letting or occupation (other than management accommodation) is fully let on terms which include service charge provisions consistent with the service charge provisions contained in this lease (save where otherwise specified herein) and such proportion shall not be increased or altered by reason of the fact that at any time any part of such accommodation may be vacant or that any tenant or other occupier of any other part of the Building may default in payment of its due proportion of the Service Cost

4.1 The Tenant shall pay to the Management Company the Interim Sum without deduction by equal quarterly instalments in advance on the usual quarter days (provided written notice

of the Interim Sum has been provided the Tenant in accordance with paragraph 4.5 of this Schedule) the first payment to be made on the date hereof for the period from the date hereof to the next quarter day

4.2 The Management Company shall be entitled to require as part of the Interim Sum payments in advance on account of the cost of the consumption of and supply charges in respect of electricity consumed within the Premises (save for any amounts which are invoiced directly by London Electricity plc or relevant electricity provider to the Tenant) such sums not to exceed a fair and proper estimate of amounts reasonably anticipated by the Management Company as falling due within the next quarter

4.3 If the Tenant consistently requests the provision of any of the Services outside Normal Business Hours the Management Company shall be entitled in addition to require the Tenant to pay along with payments of the Interim Sum a fair and proper estimate of amounts likely to be payable by the Tenant in the next quarter on account of such Services in accordance with the terms of this lease

4.4 The Interim Sum for the Premises for the Accounting Period beginning on 1st January [ ] and ending 31st December [ ] shall be £[ ] exclusive of VAT

4.5 Either before or as soon as practicable after the commencement of every Accounting Period the Management Company shall serve or cause to be served on the Tenant written notice of the Interim Sum for the relevant Accounting Period

5.1 As soon as practicable after the expiry of every Accounting Period (and in any event within 4 months after such expiry) the Management Company shall serve or cause to be served a Service Charge Certificate on the Tenant for the relevant Accounting Period

5.2 A Service Charge Certificate shall contain a summary of the Service Cost in respect of the Accounting Period to which it relates and the relevant calculations showing the Service Charge

5.3 The Tenant may request further details of the breakdown of the expenditure under any particular item or items shown in a Service Charge Certificate by giving notice thereof in writing to the Management Company within six months of the date of service on the Tenant of the relevant Service Charge Certificate and upon receipt of such a notice the Management Company shall furnish to the Tenant all such relevant details in its possession or control or which can reasonably be obtained by it as relate to the expenditure under the item or items in question at the cost of the Tenant PROVIDED ALWAYS that notwithstanding the giving of any such notice the Tenant shall nevertheless pay all Interim Sums and Service Charges as and when they fall due or as may be underpaid from time to time (but without prejudice to any challenge claim or dispute that the Tenant may have made or may make in the future in respect of its Service Charge liability or otherwise)

6. Within fourteen days after the service on the Tenant of a Service Charge Certificate showing that the Service Charge for any Accounting Period exceeds the Interim Sum for that Accounting Period with a demand for such excess and a valid VAT invoice the Tenant shall (without prejudice to any challenge claim or dispute as aforesaid) pay to the Management Company or as it shall direct a sum equal to the amount by which the Service Charge exceeds the Interim Sum provided that and the Tenant hereby acknowledges that if

there shall be any such excess in respect of the Accounting Period the amount of such excess shall be a debt due from the Tenant to the Management Company and in the event that such excess is not received by the Management Company within 14 days of the due dates for payment it shall attract interest at the Interest Rate calculated for the period commencing on the due date for payment and ending on the date the sum is subsequently received by the Management Company notwithstanding that the Term may have expired or been determined before the service by or on behalf of the Management Company of the relevant Service Charge Certificate

7. If in any Accounting Period the Service Charge is less than the Interim Sum for that Accounting Period a sum equal to the amount which the Interim Sum exceeds the Service Charge shall be accumulated by the Management Company and shall be applied in or towards the Service Charge for the next following Accounting Period or Accounting Periods or at or after the end of the Term repaid to the Tenant within 14 days after preparation of the Service Charge Certificate

8. Unless challenged by the Tenant pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 9 of this schedule every notice certificate calculation determination or assessment properly made by or on behalf of the Management Company referred to in this schedule shall (save in the case of manifest error or gross negligence) be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto

9. The Tenant (acting reasonably) may at any time within six months after the submission of a Service Charge Certificate challenge it on any reasonable ground (including without limitation on the ground that the Service Charge therein stated exceeds the Service Charge which should have been payable had the provisions of this lease been properly adhered to) PROVIDED THAT the Tenant gives notice with full particulars of its ground of alleged challenge and in any such case:

9.1 any sum due to or payable by the Management Company pursuant to paragraphs 6 and 7 above shall (save in manifest error) still be paid or allowed pending resolution of the Tenant’s challenge as if the Service Charge Certificate were correct

9.2 the Management Company and the Tenant shall endeavour to resolve the relevant issue but if they cannot do so the issue in dispute shall be referred to the Expert (acting as an expert and not an arbitrator) whose decision shall save in the case of manifest error be binding on the parties (including his decision as to the responsibility for his costs)

9.3 such adjustments to the Service Charge Certificate as may be required to be made in consequence of the resolution of the dispute shall be paid as soon as reasonably practicable after such resolution and any sum due to or payable by the Management Company shall then be paid or allowed (as the case may be) immediately

10. All sums obtained from the Tenant and any other tenants or occupiers of the Building towards the Service Cost and sums collected in respect of the Reserve shall each be placed in separate interest bearing designated deposit accounts to be applied only towards the cost of providing the Services and all interest accrued on such deposit account shall be credited (net of tax) to the account

11. The Management Company will account to the Landlord as soon as practicable following expiry of each Accounting Period for that part of the Service Charge which relates to costs directly incurred by the Landlord and not by the Management Company including (but not limited to) the costs referred to in paragraphs 5 7 8 9 and 12 of Part II of schedule 6
