OPERATOR shall increase their remitted gross sales tax to the CITY each calendar year <br />by five percent (5%) over the previous year's remitted gross sales tax ("Annual Sales Tax <br />Increase") commencing January 1, 2024. In the event that OPERATOR is unable to <br />achieve the Annual Sales Tax Increase through regular business operations, OPERATOR <br />must remit to CITY the difference in actual remittance versus required remittance through <br />one (1) annual monetary payrnent ("Sales Tax Shortage Payment"). By way of example, <br />if OPERATOR's Annual Sales Tax Increase equated to a gross sales tax remittance total <br />of $5,000.00, but at the end of the subject year OPERATOR increased remitted gross <br />sales tax by $4,500.00, OPERATOR would owe CITY a Sales Tax Shortage Payment of <br />$500.00 within sixty (60) days of notice from CITY of Sales Tax Shortage Payment <br />activation.

See Exhibit B: Gross Taxes Received from Operator. For the avoidance of <br />confusion, if in any term year OPERATOR must remit a Sales Tax Shortage Payment, <br />
