    3. The Rent and the Service Charge will be due for full calendar months (each started Lease month will be considered and charged as a full month for the purpose of calculating the Rent and the Service Charge) and paid by the Client in advance for each month, not later than the 5th day of the month for which the Rent and the Service Charge are due – because of the uniform nature of the invoicing system at EMS. In the event of default payment by the Client exceeding 30 days, EMS shall have the power to issue its invoice on the Rent and Sercie Charges first upon simultaneous performance of payment by the Client.
    4. By way of exception, the Rent and the Service Charge payable at the conclusion of the Agreement will consist of:
      • the Rent and the Service Charge for the month in which the Commencement Date falls (the first month); if the Commencement Date is not the first day of the first month, then the Rent will be calculated proportionally with the actual number of days between the Commencement Date and the end of the first month (each such day will be charged [Rent + Service Charge] divided by 30) ; plus
      • the Rent for the month following the month in which the Commencement Date falls.

      EMS issues free of charge the invoices regarding the Rent and the Service Charge, generally at least 10 (ten) days before the due date of the payment. Should the Client do not receive the invoice at least 7 (seven) days before the due date, it is obliged to report this fact to EMS. Not receiving the invoice on time does not relieve the Client from its obligation to make the full payment not later than the due date, considering the fact that the present Agreement represents a sufficient basis for the payment and that the relevant exchange rate may be communicated by EMS to the Client immediately on request via telephone or fax (in case the Client applies an NBH exchange rate applicable on a different day from that in which EMS issued the invoice, the negative or positive difference will be reflected in the next invoice).

    5. Without prejudice to the Client’s right to terminate the Lease according to section 6.4 of the Agreement, the level of the Rent / Service Charge will remain unchanged for a period of 3 (three) months following the execution of the Agreement, following which EMS may change it by sending a related notice or by including in the invoice a mention as to the change in the level of Rent / Service Charge. The notification on the amendment of the Rent and the Service Charges shall be sent by EMS to the Client (i) as registered mail sent to the address of the seat, place of business or subsidiary of the Client, or (ii) to the E-mail address of the Client specified in Artile ‘A’ of the Agreement, and recorded on its company file along with the electronic signature.
    6. The amendment of the Rent / Service Charge will become effective always on a first day of a month (the “Application Date”), respectively on the first date of the month that follows the date of the notice or invoice’s receipt by the Client, but not sooner than 30 days as of the receipt date. (example: if notice or invoice is received on July 1st, the Application Date is August 1st, but if received on July 2 the Application Date is September 1st), unless EMS receives before the Application Date the Client’s notice on termination of the Lease, as per section 6.5 of the Agreement (in which case the Rent and the Service Charge will remain unchanged until the end of the Lease).

If the Client requests refunding of such sum, EMS will return the overpayment within 20 (twenty) days as of the date of receiving the request, less the commissions / costs implied by the bank transfer (or by other method of payment requested by the Client and agreed by EMS).
    5.

    2. The Security Deposit will accrue no interest.
    3. Simultaneously with the modification of the Rent / Service Charge as per section 14.6 EMS is entitled to increase the amount of the Security Deposit as well.

    4. EMS will notify the Client on any enforcement of the Security Deposit (total or partial) which was made in order to cover Client’s debs under the Agreement. If the Lease was not terminated by the time of EMS’ enforcement of the Security Deposit, the Client will transfer to EMS the amount of the Security Deposit which was used by EMS, so that the value of the Security Deposit reaches the value it had before enforcement. The Client’s failure by any reason to make such payment within 7 days as of the EMS notice’ receipt regarding the enforcement of the Security Deposit constitutes a Major Infringement.
    5. After the end of the Lease EMS will return to the Client the Security Deposit, not later that the 14th day of the month following the month in which the Lease ended, to the extent it was not enforced already and after deducting the amounts necessary to ensure that all Client’s debts under the Agreement are completely paid. The transfer of the Security Deposit will be made into the account indicated by the Client in Section A of the Agreement or subsequently communicated to EMS. Should the transfer to the Client’s account not be possible due to reasons which are not imputable to EMS (such as: wrong account data, account which was closed, etc.) EMS will inform the Client in any of the manners as set forth in section 32 and hold the Security Deposit (maintaining availability to reimburse it) for a period of maximum one year after the termination of the Lease, following the expiry of which the Client’s right to claim the the Security Deposit shall lapse and may no longer be exercised or enforced.

In case the Lease is terminated the provisions of sections 27 and 29 below will apply.
    5. The provisions of this section 19 do not prejudice the EMS‘right to terminate the Lease as a result of a Major Infringement.

      • If part of the EMS Compound is closed for repairs or redevelopment.

        In such cases at the discretion of EMS, depending on the availability of the Units and the period of time for which the Goods will be removed from the Unit:

        • The Goods will be moved to a Unit similar to the one rented by the Client. In such situation, the Rent will remain unchanged, the Client understanding and accepting the fact that he/she will owe to EMS both the Rent and Service Charges;
        • If the move is permanent, and EMS does not have a Unit similar to the one rented by the Client, the Goods will be moved to another available Unit of EMS Complex, depending on its availability. In such case, the Parties shall renegotiate the Rent according to the coordinates of the new Unit;
        • If the move is not permanent, and EMS does not have Units in which to move the Goods, they will be moved to the Common Spaces inside the EMS Complex. In such case, EMS shall ensure the protection and security of the Goods, and, upon the termination of the reason that caused the relocation, EMS shall proceed to the move of the Goods back to the Unit rented by the Client.

(ii) If the movement is made with prior notice of the Client, EMS shall specify in the notice both the period of time for which the move will be made and the location in which the Goods will be moved, as well EMS will give the Client a reasonable period of time in which to move the Goods, depending on the urgency of the matter. In case the Client refuses to move its Goods to another unit by the specified deadline, the Client agrees that EMS will be entitled to remove the lock and transport itself the Goods to another unit, on the Client’s expense, and without bearing any liability for any loss that the Client might suffer as a result of such actions (save for losses suffered as a result of gross negligence of misconduct of EMS Employees or contractors).

    4. For the period the Goods are located in another unit, the Contract will apply to the use of the new unit by the Client in all respects, the same way it applies to the use of the Unit.
    5. After being informed by EMS on the coordinates of the new Unit, the Client may install its own lock at the new unit. The Client may use the new unit until EMS notifies the Client on the fact that the Unit is available to the Client or that provisions of this section 20 must be applied also in respect of the new unit. Immediately after receipt of such notice the Client will remove the lock from the new unit (and will return the new unit to EMS) and will transport the Goods to the unit indicated by EMS.

Upon occurrence of the above conditions, EMS shall have the power to remove the lock from the Unit fixed by the Client, and to take possession of the Goods in the Unit with the purpose of obtainment of the title to these Goods.
