control devices.
Smoke Detectors/Carbon Monoxide Detectors. Landlord will furnish smoke detectors and carbon
monoxide detectors as required by statute, and Landlord will test them and provide working batteries
when Tenant first takes possession. After that, Tenant must pay for and replace batteries as needed,
unless the law provides otherwise. Landlord may replace dead or missing batteries at Tenant's expense,
without prior notice to Tenant. Tenant must immediately report smoke-detector malfunctions to
Landlord. Neither Tenant nor others may disable smoke detectors or carbon monoxide detectors. If

Landlord, Tenant will be liable to Landlord and others for any loss, damage, or fines from fire, smoke, or
water.

damage or loss of personal property from any cause, including but not limited to: fire, smoke, rain,
flood, water and pipe leaks, hail, ice, snow, lightning, wind, explosions, earthquake, interruption of
utilities, theft, or vandalism unless otherwise required by law. Landlord has no duty to remove any ice,
sleet, or snow but may remove any amount with or without notice. During freezing weather, Tenant
must ensure that the temperature in the Premise is sufficient to make sure that the pipes do not freeze
(Landlord suggests at least 50 degrees). If the pipes freeze or any other damage is caused by Tenant's
failure to properly maintain the heat in the Premise, Tenant will be liable for damage to Landlord
property and other's property. If Tenant asks our representatives to perform services not contemplated
in this Lease, Tenant will indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from all liability for these
services.

caused during the installation of a satellite dish or antenna to the Premise or Property. Tenant agrees
not to alter, damage, or remove Landlord property, including alarm systems, smoke detectors, furniture,
telephone and cable TV wiring, screens, locks, and access control devices. When Tenant moves in,
Landlord will supply light bulbs for fixtures furnish in the Premises, including exterior fixtures operated
from inside the Premise; after that, Tenant will replace them at Tenant's expense with bulbs of the same
type and wattage. Tenant improvements to the Premise (whether or not Landlord consented) become
the Landlords unless agreed otherwise in writing.
25. Notice of Dangerous Conditions: Tenant shall promptly notify Landlord of any conditions that might
cause damage to the Premises or waste utilities or services provided by Landlord.

Tenant as of the date Landlord approves. The departing Tenant will no longer have a right to occupancy
or a Security Deposit refund.

Tenant or any guest or occupant violates the Lease or rules, all Tenants are considered to have violated
the Lease. Our requests and notices (including sale notices) to any Tenants constitute notice to all
Tenants and occupants. Notices and requests from any Tenant or occupant (including notices of Lease
termination, repair requests, and entry permissions) constitute notice from all Tenants. In eviction suits,
each Tenant is considered the agent of all other Tenants of the Premise for service of process.

an agreed-to liquidated amount covering only part of our damages; that is, our time, effort, and expense
in finding and processing a replacement. The reletting charge does not release Tenant from continued
liability for future or past-due rent; charges for cleaning, repairing, repainting, or unreturned keys; or
other sums due.
