Owner and Tenant agree that Tenant paying rent late on four (4) separate occasions within any twelve (12) month period shall constitute habitual late payment of rent and may be considered a just cause for eviction.

11. MAINTENANCE: Tenant shall, at Tenant’s expense, at all times maintain the Premises, furnishings and appliances, if any, in a clean and good condition and shall surrender the same upon termination of tenancy in the same condition as received (excepting normal wear and tear and other items detailed in any addendums to this Agreement).

any property held in common within a larger association (condo HOA’s, TICs), the yard or lawn. Any maintenance expenditure by Tenant will either be invoiced separately or be deducted from a following month’s rent.

12. INSPECTION CONTINGENCY: This Agreement is contingent upon the Tenant having the right to engage an inspector to determine the structure, condition, utilities access, lighting conditions, neighborhood traffic, current and planned neighborhood construction, neighborhood safety and noise levels of the Premises and Building as well as the behavior of occupants, tenants, neighbors, contractors, vendors, managers, agents, and owners of the Building and other units in the Building, if any. Tenant will also inspect any association (HOA’s, TICs, etc.) rules and regulations, including restrictions on leasing, advertising, and installing lockboxes or digital locks. The inspection shall be conducted and the contingency concluded within 21 days of the lease start date. The inspection report and association rules and regulations must be satisfactory to Tenant and should Owner and Tenant fail to reach an agreement on repairs/replacements to be made and/or abatement of rent due by Tenant, all deposit monies will be immediately refunded and all Agreement obligations considered null and void.

For purposes of this Paragraph, normal business hours shall be defined as 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, every day of the week. Tenant may not place any unreasonable restrictions upon such entry. If, however, Owner reasonably believes that an emergency exists (such as a fire or flood) which requires immediate entry, such entry may be made without prior notice to Tenant. If Tenant has, after written notice to cease, continued to deny Owner access to the Premises, as required by law, such failure is a substantial breach of this Agreement and is a just cause for eviction. If the Premises or the Building is required by any government agency or insurer to undergo inspections, repairs or alterations, Tenant agrees to cooperate fully with Owner so that all such inspections, repairs or alterations are made in as expeditious and efficient a manner as possible.

16. SMOKING: Smoking of any substance is not permitted in the Premises or in any common area of the Building. Tenant shall inform his or her guests or invitees of this smoking prohibition.

Tenant is hereby informed that there may be rental units in the Building where smoking is permitted. Owner shall not be liable for any damages or injury to Tenant’s health or personal property, or any other person’s health or personal property, occurring on the Premises or any part thereof, in connection with the use of tobacco or tobacco products by any other resident or occupant in the Building.

Excessive use of such utilities and services and charges provided to the Premises shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. Use of utilities, services and charges caused by leaks, faulty equipment, faulty meters, or unknown or ambiguous causes, or any cause that is not the intentional act of the Tenant or any Subtenant, shall not be considered excessive use, and any charges associated with such use such shall be the responsibility of Owner.

If Tenant sublets the Premises to a Subtenant, Tenant may allow Subtenant to place some or all utilities in Subtenant’s name.

REGULATORY CHANGE TERMINATION RIGHT: NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, in the event that regulatory changes occur that may further or newly hinder or limit Tenant’s ability to sublease the Premises, including but not limited to changes in or changes in enforcement of local, state, or national laws and/or ordinances regarding rent control, rent stabilization, evictions, furnished housing, corporate housing, vacation rentals, subleasing, and/or minimum lease length, Tenant, at its sole discretion, may terminate this agreement with seven (7) days prior, written notice.

OTHER NOTICES

A. LEAD DISCLOSURE: Many homes and apartments built before 1978 have paint that contains lead (called lead-based paint). Lead from paint chips and dust can pose serious health hazards if not taken care of properly. The law requires that Tenant receive certain information before renting pre-1978 housing. By signing this Agreement, Tenant represents and agrees that Owner has provided Tenant with such information, including, but not limited to the EPA booklet entitled, "Protect Your Family From Lead In Your Home.”

B. ASBESTOS: The Premises may contain asbestos or have original construction materials that contain asbestos. Asbestos is known to exist in the following locations: N/A (Copies of available reports, if any, are attached hereto for your reference and information.) Damaging or disturbing the surface of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) may increase the risk of exposure. Therefore, Tenant and Tenant’s guests, contractors, or invitees shall not allow any action which may, in any way, disturb ACMs or any part of the Premises that may contain asbestos or ACMs. Tenant shall notify Owner immediately if Tenant knows or suspects that an ACM has been disturbed or if Tenant becomes aware of any ACM that is showing signs of deterioration.

C. INFORMATION ABOUT BED BUGS: Bed Bug Appearance: Bed bugs have six legs. Adult bed bugs have flat bodies about 1/4 of an inch in length. Their color can vary from red and brown to copper colored. Young bed bugs are very small. Their bodies are about 1/16 of an inch in length. They have almost no color. When a bed bug feeds, its body swells, may lengthen, and becomes bright red, sometimes making it appear to be a different insect. Bed bugs do not fly. They can either crawl or be carried from place to place on objects, people, or animals. Bed bugs can be hard to find and identify because they are tiny and try to stay hidden. Life Cycle and Reproduction: An average bed bug lives for about 10 months. Female bed bugs lay one to five eggs per day. Bed bugs grow to full adulthood in about 21 days. Bed bugs can survive for months without feeding. Bed Bug Bites: Because bed bugs usually feed at night, most people are bitten in their sleep and do not realize they were bitten. A person’s reaction to insect bites is an immune response and so varies from person to person. Sometimes the red welts caused by the bites will not be noticed until many days after a person was bitten, if at all. Common signs and symptoms of a possible bed bug infestation include:

• Small red to reddish brown fecal spots on mattresses, box springs, bed frames, mattresses, linens, upholstery, or walls.

• Molted bed bug skins, white, sticky eggs, or empty eggshells.
• Very heavily infested areas may have a characteristically sweet odor.

• Red, itchy bite marks, especially on the legs, arms, and other body parts exposed while sleeping. However, some people do not show bed bug lesions on their bodies even though bed bugs may have fed on them.

D. ABANDONED PERSONAL PROPERTY: State law permits former tenants to reclaim abandoned personal property left at the former address of the tenant, subject to certain conditions. You may or may not be able to reclaim property without incurring additional costs, depending on the cost of storing the property and the length of time before it is reclaimed. In general, these costs will be lower the sooner you contact your former landlord after being notified that property belonging

to you was left behind after you moved out.
