If the Government contracts with the Offeror to effect such installations, payment will be made on a lump-
sum basis or through increased rental payments at the Government' option. (Increased rental payments
s
will recognize residual values to the Owner and will include interest, if any, at a rate not in excess of the
first mortgage.) In connection therewith, the successful Offeror will be required to accomplish such work
on an actual cost basis; and the Government payment, therefore, will be computed on the basis of such.
The successful Offeror will be required to submit, not later than 30 days prior to the date of delivery and
occupancy of the space and every year thereafter during the term of the lease, unit prices for such
repetitive alteration work items such as (1) installation of electrical outlets, (2) installation of telephone/data
outlets, (3) erection and/or relocation of movable partitions, (4) lighting changes, and (5) special painting.
3.5 TAX ADJUSTMENTS:
Real estate taxes, as referred to in this paragraph, are only those taxes, which are assessed against the
building and/or the land upon which the building is located, without regard to benefit to the property, for the
purpose of funding general Government services. Real estate taxes shall not include, without limitation,
general and/or special assessments, business improvement district assessments, or any other present or
future taxes or governmental charges that are imposed upon the Lessor or assessed against the building
and/or the land upon which the building is located.
Base year taxes as referred to in this paragraph are 1) the real estate taxes for the first 12-month period
coincident with full assessment or 2) may be an amount negotiated by the parties that reflects an agreed
upon base for a fully assessed value of the property.
The term "full assessment" as referred to in this paragraph means that the taxing jurisdiction has
considered all contemplated improvements to the assessed property in the valuation of the same. Partial
assessments for newly constructed projects or for projects under construction, conversion, or renovation
will not be used for establishing the Government's base year for taxes.
The Lessor shall furnish the Contracting Officer with copies of all notices that may affect the valuation of
said land and buildings for real estate taxes thereon, as well as all notices of a tax credit, all tax bills, and
all paid tax receipts, or where tax receipts are not given, other similar evidence of payment acceptable to
the Contracting Officer (hereinafter, evidence of payment), and a proper invoice (as described in GSA
Form 3517B, General Clauses, 552.232-75, Prompt Payment) of the tax adjustment including the
calculation thereof, for each year that real estate taxes are incurred during the lease term or any extension
thereof. All such documents are due within 10 calendar days of receipt except that the proper invoice and
evidence of payment shall be submitted within 60 calendar days after the date the tax payment is due from
the Lessor to the taxing authority. FAILURE TO SUBMIT THE PROPER INVOICE AND EVIDENCE OF
PAYMENT WITHIN SUCH TIME FRAME SHALL BE A WAIVER OF THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE
PAYMENT RESULTING FROM AN INCREASED TAX ADJUSTMENT UNDER THIS PARAGRAPH. The
Government shall make a single annual lump sum payment to the Lessor for its share of any increase in
real estate taxes during the lease term over the amount established as the base year taxes, or receive a
rental credit or lump sum payment for its share of any decreases in real estate taxes during the lease term
below the amount established as the base year taxes. The amount of lump sum payment or rental credit
shall be based upon evidence of valuation and payment submitted by the Lessor to the Contracting
Officer.
In the event of an increase in taxes over the base year, the Lessor shall submit a proper invoice of the tax
adjustment including the calculation thereof together with evidence of payment to the Contracting Officer.
THE GOVERNMENT SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYMENT OF ANY TAX INCREASE OVER THE
BASE YEAR TAXES ONLY IF THE PROPER INVOICE AND EVIDENCE OF PAYMENT IS SUBMITTED
BY THE LESSOR WITHIN 60 CALENDAR DAYS AFTER THE DATE THE TAX PAYMENT IS DUE
FROM THE LESSOR TO THE TAXING AUTHORITY. The due date for making payment shall be the
