Private charges Clause Samples
The 'Private charges' clause defines the responsibility for any fees, levies, or costs that are not public taxes but are instead imposed by private entities or individuals in relation to the subject matter of the contract. This may include charges such as utility connection fees, service charges, or maintenance costs that are not covered by government-imposed taxes. Typically, the clause specifies which party is responsible for paying these private charges, ensuring there is no ambiguity about financial obligations. Its core function is to allocate responsibility for non-governmental costs, thereby preventing disputes over unexpected or unclear expenses.
Private charges. The Lessee will bear the costs (including fixed charges, subscriptions, and the cost of distributors and connections) that are associated with his consumption of water, gas, electricity, telephone, fax, cable TV, etc., or that are related to other services he purchases. The Lessor will provide a distribution point for the connections of water, gas, cable TV and electricity. If the “assets” that the Lessee wishes to utilize require special provisions (e.g. private high-voltage cabin), the installation and maintenance thereof will be paid by the Lessee. To the extent that certain private charges will be charged to the Lessor, the relevant invoices and/or documents are delivered to the Lessee, who will reach the arrangements necessary for payment within the specified term.
Private charges. These charges include services related to liquids and energy (e.g. electric power, gas, water, fuel, including heating fuel, air-conditioning, etc. of the private sections) utilised by the Lessee in the leased premises. In the event that the installation allows the Lessee to take out open policies for these services directly, it will pay this to the relevant organisations promptly, in such a manner that there will never be any reason for the Lessor to investigate or be concerned about this issue. Should the opposite occur, then the Lessee shall reimburse the Lessor for these charges, in accordance with the index relevés aux compteurs, its share as calculated on a pro rata basis for the occupied surfaces that are being supplied.
