To the extent that the CAM Reconciliation (as defined below) for calendar year 2014 reveals that Seller has over-collected Expense Reimbursements such that, if the end of the operating expense year under the Lease was the Closing Date, Seller would be obligated to refund money to the Tenant (an “Over Collection”), rather than collect additional money from the Tenant (an “Under Collection”), said Over Collection shall be paid by Seller to Buyer at the Closing as a settlement statement credit and Buyer shall pay said Over-Collection to the Tenant within 30 days or otherwise in compliance with the lease obligations; provided, in the event of an Under Collection, the amount of the Under Collection shall be paid by Buyer to Seller outside of escrow within 5 business days after receipt from the Tenant those incurred in connection with the year-end Operating Costs reconciliation process subject preparation of statements required pursuant to Section 2B above; and in accordance (j) legal fees, space planner fees, real estate brokers' leasing commissions and advertising expenses incurred with regard to leasing the terms Building or portions thereof. If during all or any portion of Section 6.1(a). Notwithstanding any fiscal year the foregoingProject is not fully rented and occupied by tenants, in the event Landlord may elect to make an appropriate adjustment (an "Equitable Adjustment") of an Under Collection, Buyer shall pay up to $10,000 of the same to Seller at Closing. Operating Costs for 2014 shall be reasonably estimated by such fiscal year, employing sound accounting and management principles, to determine the parties if final bills are not available. At least 5 business days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall provide Buyer with a reasonably detailed reconciliation for Tenant showing all Operating Costs incurred by Seller from the beginning of the then-current calendar year (2014) through the Closing Date, and any Expense Reimbursements collected by Seller during the same period of time and relating to Tenant, all in the form customarily submitted to Tenant (the “CAM Reconciliation”). Operating Costs that are payable would have been paid or incurred by Landlord had the Project been fully rented and occupied for the entire fiscal year, and the amount so determined shall be deemed to have been the Operating Costs for such fiscal year. The foregoing process illustrated by the following hypothetical which assumes (i) the Building has ten floors; (ii) the Tenant directly occupies one floor and therefor, Tenant's Proportionate Share is ten percent (10%); (iii) the other nine floors are vacant; (iv) the cost of providing a particular service for Tenant's floor is $1,000. If Tenant were to pay Tenant's Proportionate Share of the cost of such service for the Building it would pay $100. Instead, Landlord shall estimate the cost of such service for the Building if it were one hundred percent (100%) occupied. If there would be any savings in the variable costs per floor of providing the service because such service would be provided for all ten floors, instead of one floor, these should be taken into account by Landlord in making its estimate. If some savings would exist, the estimate of the Landlord would be an amount that is less than the amount obtained by multiplying the number of floors in the Building by the cost of providing such service to one floor (10 x $1000); for example, $9,000. The amount of Landlord's estimate ($9,000) less the actual cost incurred by the Landlord in providing the service ($1000) would equal the Equitable Adjustment ($8000). The Equitable Adjustment would be added to the applicable accrual cost and Tenant would then pay Tenant's Prorata Share of this amount, that is, Tenant would pay $9,000 times 10%, which equals $900. If Landlord is not furnishing any particular work or service providers (the cost of which if performed by Landlord would constitute an Operating Cost) to a tenant who has undertaken to perform such work or service in lieu of the performance thereof by Landlord for all or any portion of a fiscal year, Operating Costs for such fiscal year shall be deemed to be increased by an amount equal to the additional Operating Costs which reasonably would have been incurred during such fiscal year by Landlord if it had, at its own expense, furnished such work or service to such tenant. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 2C(2) with respect to an Equitable Adjustment of Operating Costs for vacancy, or as a result of the performance by tenants of certain services, shall apply only to Operating Costs which are variable and which increase as occupancy in the Project increases and shall not be prorated between Seller and Buyer. Prior apply to Closing, Seller shall reconcile any Operating Costs which do not vary with the Tenant for amount of occupancy in the calendar year 2013, the Tenant Expense Reimbursements for the calendar year 2013 and Seller shall reimburse to the Tenant any Over Collection of Expense Reimbursement for calendar year 2013 prior to the Closing and shall have the right to collect any Under Collection of Expense Reimbursement for calendar year 2013 for 180 days following the Closing. To the extent Buyer receives any amounts from Tenant for Under Collection of Expense Reimbursement for calendar year 2013 and which are identified as same, Buyer shall pay such amount to Seller within 10 daysProject.
