Medical offices totaling 22,850 rentable square feet will be provided for Medical Service Plan physicians under the proposed lease. The leased space will house medical operations of the family practice ambulatory care program of the University's College of Medicine at Rockford. SwedishAmerican would abate all rental charges for the first 3 years of the lease. During the initial term, the University will be responsible for annual operating and utility expenses estimated at $25,135 ($1.10 per square foot per year). Operating and utility expenses will be determined annually on the basis of actual costs. The landlord has agreed to $1.30 per square foot cap on this expense for year 1 and $2.00 per square foot cap for years 2-5. In lease years 4 and 5, the annual rental payments will be $139,385 ($6.10 per square foot); this sum will include $1.10 per square foot for operating and utility costs. The landlord will remodel, at landlord's expense, the lower level and first, second, and a portion of the third floors to the specifications of the tenant. Funds are available in the restricted funds operating budget of the College of Medicine for Fiscal Year 1996. Funds for FY 1997 and each annual renewal period will be included in the College of Medicine's operating budget. The annual renewals are subject to the availability of funds.
