This Agreement shall automatically renew under the same term and conditions with an increase in the Basic Service Fee of five (5%) percent, unless either party notifies the other, in writing, via certified mail, ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the initial term or any renewal thereof, that it does not wish to renew this Agreement under the same terms and conditions and increase in the Basic Service Fee.
ARTICLE 3. Fees Payable by Client.
Client covenants and agrees to pay to Company, monthly on or before the first (1st) day of each month during the Term, for the use of Premises and the Standard Included Services (as hereinafter defined), without offset or deduction and without demand, the basic service fee (the “Basic Service Fee”) in the amount as set forth on Exhibit “A”, along with any applicable State of Florida sales or use taxes (the “Applicable Taxes”). The Basic Service Fee, the Applicable Taxes and all amounts payable by Client on account of the Additional Services (the “Additional Service Fees”) shall be paid to in the manner provided herein at the address set forth in this Agreement for the provision of notices to Company.

Accordingly, to the extent that Client incurs charges (such as, but not limited to local and long distance telephone charges and information charges) from the use of the Telecommunications Package other than charges associated with those specific services provided by Company as part of the Telecommunications Package, such charges shall be Additional Service Fees and shall be payable in the same manner as the Basic Service Fees are to be paid hereunder. The routine charges associated with the use of the telecommunication services provided by Company are set forth in the Company Schedule of Services and Fees (the “Schedule of Services and Fees”).

Such Additional Services may include, but may not be limited to special telecommunication add-on features, secretarial and administrative support services, facsimile services, additional conference room usage, furniture, and photocopying services. To the extent that Client incurs charges for any such Additional Services, such charges shall be Additional Services Fees and shall be payable in the same manner as the Basic Service Fees are to be paid hereunder.
