The court ruled that the contractual usage definition of the premises as a tourist attraction must be strictly followed during rent adjustments. While the plaintiff's claim for a specific usage change was dismissed due to lack of expert agreement, the defendant was ordered to adhere to the expert commission's established usage principles. Consequently, the court awarded the plaintiff's procedural costs and rejected the defendant's counterclaim for penalties.
