Bus/Financial - Business/Commerce (general)

Italian term or phrase: pari al 5Ø/00 (cinque per mille)

Contractual clause concerning penalties for late delivery:

La Società applicherà al Fornitore una penale pari al 5Ø/00 (cinque per mille) del corrispettivo complessivo previsto in Contratto.

Am I right in saying that the penalty = 0.5% of the overall consideration?

Maths is not my strong point!
