THIS ADDENDUM IS AGREED TO AND SHALL BE MADE PART OF THE LEASE AGREEMENT
BETWEEN ______________________________ (OWNER OR AGENT) AND __________________________________
(TENANTS) FOR THE PREMISES LOCATED AT _________________________________________________________
MOLD: Mold consists of naturally occurring microscopic organisms which reproduce by spores. Mold breaks down and
feeds on organic matter in the environment. The mold spores spread through the air and the combination of excessive
moisture and organic matter allows for mold growth. Not all, but certain types and amounts of mold can lead to adverse
health effects and/or allergic reactions. Not all mold is readily visible, but when it is, can often be seen in the form of
discoloration, ranging from white to orange and from green to brown and black, and often there is a musty odor present.
Reducing moisture and proper housekeeping significantly reduces the chance of mold and mold growth.
CLIMATE CONTROL: Tenant(s) agree to use all air-conditioning, if provided, in a reasonable manner and use heating
systems in moderation and to keep the premises properly ventilated by periodically opening windows to allow circulation of
fresh air during dry weather only. OWNER OR AGENT RECOMMENDS THAT AIR CONDITIONING IS USED AT ALL TIMES IF
UNIT HAS AIR CONDITIONING.
