Any such <br />change must be with reference to the 12-month percent change in the most recently published <br />annual Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), as reported by the U.S. Bureau <br />of Labor Statistics (the “CPI Change”). <br />11.

Fees shall be paid 25% of the initial amount of new transactions or use tax revenue received <br />by the City because of audit and recovery work performed by Consultant, (hereafter referred to as <br />"audit fees"). New revenue shall not include any amounts determined and verified by City or <br />Consultant to be increment attributable to causes other than Consultant’s work pursuant to this <br />agreement. In the event, Consultant is responsible for an increase in the tax reported by businesses <br />already properly making tax payments to the City, it shall be Consultant’s responsibility to separate <br />and support the incremental amount attributable to its efforts prior to the application of the audit <br />fee. Said audit fees will apply to state fund transfers received for those specific quarters identified <br />as being missing and/or deficient following completion of the audit by Consultant and <br />confirmation of corrections by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration but shall <br />not apply prospectively to any future quarter. Consultant shall provide City with an itemized <br />quarterly invoice showing all formula calculations and amounts due for audit fees. <br />ADDITIONAL TERMS – Sales, Use and Transactions Tax Services <br />12.
