Article 4 - Adjustment of the Price

As from the Commencement Date under Agreement DC Ill, Article 4 of the Agreement DC II, as amended by Article 3 of its Addendum 3, will be replaced with the following text:

"4.1. The Annual Price is linked to the health index as published each month in the Belgian State Gazette.

4.2. The Annual Price will be adjusted automatically and as of right each year on January 1 (for the first time on January 1, 2016) and this in accordance with the following formula:

 

 

 

Annual Price X New index

New Annual Price

=

 

 

 

 

Base index

whereby

 

-

Annual Price = the Annual Price referred to in Article 3 of present Addendum 4;

 

-

base index = the health index of the month preceding the month during which Parties signed present Addendum 4, i.e. the index of August 2014, i.e. 100.12 (with 2013 = 100);

 

-

new index = the health index of the month preceding the month of the adjustment of the Price (December).

However, the new Annual Price will never be less than the Annual Price due during the year preceding the adjustment of the Annual Price.

4.3. In the event that the calculation and the publication of the health index should be discontinued or cancelled, the Annual Price will be linked to the consumer price index. In the event that the calculation and publication of the consumer index should be discontinued or cancelled, the Annual Price will be linked to the new index published by the Belgian government which might replace the consumer price index. In the event that no new official index is published and Parties fail to agree on a new method of adjusting the Annual Price, the method of adjustment will be determined by an expert appointed by the Justice of the Peace in whose jurisdiction the Premises are located.

4.4. It is explicitly agreed that Prologis shall only waive the right to adjust the Annual Price arising from this Article by a written confirmation, signed by the latter."

Article 5 - Bank Guarantee - Release

Article 3, paragraph 6 and Article 25 of the Agreement DC II, as amended by Article 1, paragraph 6 of its Addendum 1, shall not longer apply as from the Commencement Date under Agreement DC III.

As a result, on Commencement Date under Agreement DC III, the current bank guarantee provided by Skechers, as a security for the good performance of its obligations under the Agreement DC I and the Agreement DC II, shall be released by Prologis Belgium II Sprl and Prologis.

However, Article 20 of Agreement DC III shall apply.
