provided by this agreement and the law.

EXCEPT:

 Owner is responsible for utilities. Resident/Tenant shall exercise due care not to operate such utility service in an unreasonable manner. The use or

operation of an auxiliary or supplemental heating device shall constitute a safety hazard and unless written permission for such use is obtained, shall not be

permitted. Resident/Tenant agrees, for the purpose of emergency use and safety, to install, connect and maintain at their own expense, a telephone which must be

installed within two (2) weeks after tenancy begins. The number must be provided to owner immediately.

6. SECURITY DEPOSIT.

Upon execution of this Rental/Lease, Resident/Tenant shall deposit with Owner/Agent the sum of

_________________________

__________________________________________

U.S. Dollars ($_________________) which shall be held by Owner/Agent as security for the faithful

performance by Resident/Tenant of Resident/Tenant’s obligations hereunder, subject to Owner/Agent’s rights under Act 348 of the Public Acts of 1972. Said

security deposit is held at (name and address of bank):

______________________________________________________________________________

This

security deposit shall, as provided below, be returned to Resident/Tenant upon termination of Resident/Tenant’s occupancy hereunder, provided the following

conditions have been met:

(a) The Term has expired and, generally, Resident/Tenant has fully met all of Resident/Tenant’s obligations hereunder;

(b) Proper notice was given prior to Resident/Tenant’s terminating Resident/Tenant’s occupancy hereunder; 30 day written advance notice

(d) The Premises (including, where applicable, any appliances, bathroom, closets, cupboards, basement, garage, yard, windows and carpet) are clean and free of

rubbish and debris;

(e) No delinquent rents or other sums due hereunder are due and owing;

(f)

All keys have been delivered to Owner/Agent;

(g)

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________;

and

(h) A forwarding address has been given to Owner/Agent. Utah law provides that:

YOU MUST NOTIFY YOUR LANDLORD IN WRITING WITHIN 4 DAYS AFTER YOU MOVE OF A FORWARDING

ADDRESS WHERE YOU CAN BE REACHED AND WHERE YOU WILL RECEIVE MAIL; OTHERWISE YOUR

LANDLORD WILL BE RELIEVED OF SENDING YOU AN ITEMIZED LIST OF DAMAGES AND THE PENALTIES

ADHERENT TO THAT FAILURE.

If the foregoing conditions have been met, the security deposit shall be returned to Resident/Tenant within 30 days of the termination of Resident/Tenant’s

occupancy. If they have not been met, but Resident/Tenant has provided a forwarding address as specified in (h) above, Owner/Agent will, within 30 days of the

termination of Resident/Tenant’s occupancy, mail Resident/Tenant an itemized list of damages claimed, including the basis for the claim and an estimated cost of

repairs, together with a check or money order for the difference. If they have not been met, including (h) above, Owner/Agent shall mail the difference between the

amount of damages claimed and the security deposit, if any, after payment of any sums owing and/or repairs to Resident/Tenant’s last known address.

IT IS SPECIFICALLY UNDERSTOOD THAT THE AFORESAID SECURITY DEPOSIT SHALL NOT BE CONSIDERED

PREPAID RENTAL AND SHALL NOT BE APPLIED BY TENANT AGAINST THE LAST MONTH’S RENT.

7. CLEANING FEE.

Resident/Tenant shall upon execution of this Rental/Lease pay Owner/Agent a cleaning fee of

_______________________________

________________________________________U.S. Dollars ($_________________) to be used to clean, sanitize and redecorate the Premises following

termination of Resident/Tenant’s occupancy. This cleaning fee belongs to Owner/Agent unconditionally and is not refundable under any circumstances; nor shall it

apply to or become a credit against rent, Resident/Tenant’s security deposit, payment for damages caused by Resident/Tenant, or any other sums due hereunder.

Payment of the cleaning fee referenced herein shall not relieve Resident/Tenant of the obligation to keep the premises clean and in good repair as provided herein.

8. NOTICES.

Any notice which either party may or is required to give, may be given by mailing the same, postage prepaid, to Resident/Tenant at the premises or to

the Owner at the address as listed in this Agreement, or at such other places as may be designated by the parties from time to time.

9. POSSESSION.

Resident/Tenant shall have possession of the premises on the date of commencement of the Term; provided, however, that if Owner/Agent is

unable to deliver possession of the Premises on that date, Owner/Agent shall not be liable for any damages caused thereby, nor shall this lease be void or voidable,

but rent shall abate until possession is delivered. If possession is not delivered within ten days of the commencement of the Term of this Rental/Lease, either

Resident/Tenant or Owner/Agent may, by written notice terminate this Rental/Lease.

10. USE AND OCCUPANCY.

(a) Resident/Tenant shall occupy and use the Premises only as a private dwelling.

(b) Resident/Tenant shall comply with all statutes, ordinances and requirements of all municipal, state and federal authorities now in force, or which may hereafter

consent. Even though Owner/Agent has the absolute right to deny a request for additional occupancy for any reason whatsoever, there shall be an additional rental

fee of
