pro-rata temporis for the first day of

Dear all,

I’m translating an agreement where there is a sentence

For the first year, the annual retainers as per the List of Services and Fees will be applied pro-rata temporis for the first day of the corresponding quarter starting with the signing of this Agreement and ending on December 31 of the same year.

Unfortunately, I’m not sure I understand how the amount of the fees should be determined. Let’s imagine that the agreement is actually signed on 1 August, while the quarter begins on 1 July. Does the above sentence mean that the relevant amount is determined as if the agreement were signed on 1 July?

Anonymous Does the above sentence mean that the relevant amount is determined as if the agreement were signed on 1 July? Not exactly the way I would express it, but (according to my reading) the end result is the same. The pro-rata calculation is to be applied on a quarterly basis (with no partial quarters).
