(i.e. 190.5/185.0=1.0297),times the base annual fee,provided however,under no circumstances shall

table prepared by the Bureau is available,then the amount of each annual franchise fee shall
be computed by reference to such other price index as may be chosen by the City,and the

this point shall be final and conclusive In no event shall the annual franchise fee adjustment
by reference to such other price index be less than the base annual fee as set forth herein.
