Accordingly, Party B should pay RMB 1.7 million yuan as liquidated damages, which can be deducted by Party A from the rental fee or payment paid by Party B. If it is insufficient，Party B should pay the remainder.
2) If Party A exercises the unilateral cancellation rights in accordance with the foregoing promises, while the Office has not yet transferred to Party B, Party B should immediately return the Office to Party A and pay all the usage fees (hereinafter referred to as "usage-fee") in accordance with the payment standard of 45 yuan per square meter monthly from the date of using the Office (June 23, 2008) until the date of return. During the using period, if Party B renovates or damages the Office and its ancillary facilities, Party B should be responsible for restoring the Office and its ancillary facilities to the former state. Party A may entrust a Third Party to make the restoration in the event that Party B refuses to restore the Office, and the restoration expenses should be borne by Party B. In this way, Party A has the right to deduct the foregoing usage-fee and restoration expenses of the Office from the paid payment. If it is insufficient，Party B should pay the remainder in other ways.

3) If the rental and paid payment from Party B has anything left after the usage-fee, restoration expenses for the Office (if there are any) and any liquid damages have been deducted, Party A should return the balance without interest.
4) If Party A does not transfer the Office to Party B or does not assist Party B in submitting the transfer material to the house registration authority according to this contract or does not pay required taxes which should be paid by Party A in accordance with provisions, which results in the failure of transferring the Office under the name of Party B, Party A should compensate Party B RMB 1.7 million and the agreement will carry on.
5) If the Office is sealed up by the judiciary or the transfer is limited by the executive authority, which results in the failure to transfer the Office under the name of Party B, then Party B has the right to terminate this agreement. Under these circumstances, Party A should only collect rent of 400,000 yuan from the lease payment and give back any other received payments to Party B.
