Room Block Attrition / If Group’s actual usage slips below 80% of the original Room Block Commitment, Group agrees to pay eighty percent of the average group room rate for each room night below the 80%.

Such charges shall be added without tax, to, and payable as part of, the Master Account. The Hotel shall undertake all efforts to resell any unused room nights in the Room Block and shall credit those sales against any attrition charges.
