These expenses include such items as utilities, security, and maintenance. We sent you a letter dated October 20, 2005, which listed the monthly recurring expenses for operating the depot of which we requested that you a pay a portion. You indicated in subsequent discussions that you wanted more information about the line item "repairs and maintenance" at $300 per month. Unlike utilities and security which are largely predictable, the depot requires a fair amount of both scheduled and unscheduled maintenance and repairs. Both you and we as tenants are beneficiaries of getting this type of work done, The $300 figure is more of a budget number, based on our experiences of the past two years, than an actual monthly expense. However we now ask that you agree to the following: pay 20i of our average monthly costs for: Gas & Electricity $200 x 0.2 = $40 Water $ 65 x 0.2 $13 Security $ 55 x 0.2 = $11 plus $36 per month for a share of repairs and maintenance. That would be a total of $100 per month, $25 less than in our previous4- letter. Please pay to SDERA the sum of $900 at your earliest convenience - $100 per month for the period of May 1, 2005 to Feb 1, 2006. And then pay to SDERA the sum of $100 per month thereafter, through the current duration of our maintenance and operating agreement with National City, April 30, 2007. Thanks in advance for your sharing with us in the depot operations. Feel free to contact me if you have questions.
