RENT: The Tenant agrees to pay to Landlord at the commencement date of this Lease and in advance on the first day of each and every
consecutive calendar month thereafter throughout the term of the Lease, by personal check, money order or cashier's check, the monthly rental amount
set forth hereinabove made payable to Landlord. Landlord shall not accept cash for payment of rent. For purposes of this Lease, it is irrebuttably
presumed that Tenant has not paid rent unless Tenant can produce a canceled check or money order proving that Tenant has paid Landlord the rent in
question. If this Lease commences on a date other than the first day of the month, the Tenant shall be responsible for paying to Landlord the prorated
amount of rent based upon the actual number of days in the first month of the tenancy that the Dwelling Unit is available for occupancy. If Tenant’s Lease
commences between the 25th and end of the month, Tenant must pay the pro-ration as well as rent for the following month in advance before occupying
the Dwelling Unit. All payments made by Tenant to Landlord shall first be applied to the oldest outstanding balance(s) of rent and other amounts due, and
any remainder to current amounts due. Notwithstanding anything hereinabove to the contrary, Tenant may pay online at Landlord’s sole discretion as per
the Online Payment Addendum annexed hereto.

2. LATE PAYMENT AND RETURNED CHECKS AND CHARGES:


A. If the rent is not received at Landlord’s onsite management office by the 4th day of the month, a late charge of $100.00 shall accrue on the
5th day of the month and an additional charge of $-0- per day shall accrue thereafter until the rent and all accrued late and other charges are paid in full,
all as additional rent. The accrual of a late charge does not create a grace period. The rent is due in advance on the first and is late on the second day of
the month.
B. Landlord reserves the right to require that any payment due under this Lease not paid by the due date shall be made by money order or
certified check, rather than by personal check.
C. In addition to all other remedies available to Landlord, a service charge of $75.00 shall accrue for any dishonored payment, regardless of
the method of payment.
D. Tenant agrees that Tenant shall immediately redeem any dishonored check or other payment in full, plus any service charge hereinabove,
by money order or certified check, within twenty-four (24) hours of delivery of written demand by Landlord therefore. Any dishonored payment that is
returned and/or redeemed after the date rent is due shall be deemed delinquent and such rental payment shall be subject to the late fee and penalties set
forth in this Lease. In addition, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all costs incurred by Landlord in the collection of any dishonored check, including, without
limitation, attorney fees and collection agency fees.
E. In the event that any one of Tenant’s checks for payments due or becoming due under this Lease is dishonored, Tenant agrees to pay
Landlord all subsequent rent and other charges under this Lease by certified check or money order. Landlord shall not accept any personal checks from
Tenant thereafter.
F. All such charges set forth hereinabove, and/or elsewhere in this Lease and/or any addenda hereto are deemed rent for purposes of this
Lease and Landlord shall be required to give Tenant a statutory three-day notice and not a seven-day notice for payment of same or possession prior to
commencing an eviction action against Tenant for nonpayment. It is agreed and understood that Landlord, without waiving any rights whatsoever, is
under no obligation to accept payment of rent and/or additional rent as defined herein after expiration of the statutory three-day notice period for
nonpayment of rent or any other applicable statutory notice period, if any.

3. CONDITION OF THE APARTMENT UPON MOVE-IN: Tenant agrees that prior to Tenant taking possession of the Dwelling Unit, Tenant shall
make an initial walk through of the Dwelling Unit and Tenant agrees that no later than 72 hours after move-in Tenant shall write down clearly on a move-in
report supplied by Landlord, any and all problems or deficiencies in the Dwelling Unit that are discovered after a thorough inspection of the Dwelling Unit
by Tenant. Tenant shall deliver the completed move-in report to the apartment community manager for the manager’s signature, acknowledging receipt of
the completed move-in report. It is recommended that Tenant retain a copy of the completed and signed move-in report for Tenant’s records. Landlord
shall perform reasonable, necessary repairs to the Dwelling Unit within a reasonable time after receiving the completed move-in report from Tenant.
Tenant agrees that other than those items set forth on the move-in report that Landlord is reasonably required to repair, that Tenant shall accept the
Dwelling Unit as is. Reasonable repairs for purposes of this Lease shall be those repairs that are required in order to render the Dwelling Unit habitable.
The Landlord shall make all such repairs with reasonable promptness after the community manager signs said move-in report. Failure of the Tenant to so
timely deliver the move-in report to the Landlord and obtain the apartment community manager’s signature acknowledging receipt therefor by Landlord,
shall be conclusively presumed as meaning that no repairs were required nor requested of Landlord at the time of move-in and that Tenant accepted the
Dwelling Unit as is.

4. SECURITY DEPOSIT: Before Tenant may occupy the Dwelling Unit, Tenant must pay Landlord the full security deposit indicated above.
Tenant’s security deposit may not be applied by Tenant or Landlord as rent during the term of the Lease and/or any extension, but is a good faith deposit
for Tenant’s fulfillment of each and every duty required of Tenant in the Lease and as a contingency against any physical damage to the Dwelling Unit
and/or wear and tear beyond normal. The security deposit is not intended nor shall it any way be construed as prepayment of rent or any other
charge accruing under this Lease.

Landlord shall hold the security deposit given by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to this Lease in a non-interest bearing account at the Florida banking
institution set forth hereinabove. TENANT’S LEASE REQUIRES PAYMENT OF CERTAIN DEPOSITS. THE LANDLORD MAY TRANSFER ADVANCE
RENTS TO THE LANDLORD'S ACCOUNT AS THEY ARE DUE AND WITHOUT NOTICE. WHEN TENANT MOVES OUT, TENANT MUST GIVE THE
LANDLORD TENANT’S NEW ADDRESS SO THAT THE LANDLORD CAN SEND TENANT NOTICES REGARDING TENANT’S DEPOSIT. THE
LANDLORD MUST MAIL TENANT NOTICE WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER TENANT MOVES OUT OF THE LANDLORD'S INTENT TO IMPOSE A CLAIM
AGAINST THE DEPOSIT. IF TENANT DOES NOT REPLY TO THE LANDLORD STATING TENANT’S OBJECTION TO THE CLAIM WITHIN 15 DAYS
AFTER RECEIPT OF THE LANDLORD'S NOTICE, THE LANDLORD WILL COLLECT THE CLAIM AND MUST MAIL TENANT THE REMAINING
DEPOSIT, IF ANY.

IF THE LANDLORD FAILS TO TIMELY MAIL TENANT NOTICE, THE LANDLORD MUST RETURN THE DEPOSIT BUT MAY LATER FILE A LAWSUIT
AGAINST TENANT FOR DAMAGES. IF TENANT FAILS TO TIMELY OBJECT TO A CLAIM, THE LANDLORD MAY COLLECT FROM THE DEPOSIT,
BUT TENANT MAY LATER FILE A LAWSUIT CLAIMING A REFUND.

TENANT SHOULD ATTEMPT TO INFORMALLY RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BEFORE FILING A LAWSUIT. GENERALLY, THE PARTY IN WHOSE
FAVOR A JUDGMENT IS RENDERED WILL BE AWARDED COSTS AND ATTORNEY FEES PAYABLE BY THE LOSING PARTY.

Landlord. Tenant's absence from the dwelling unit for sixteen (16) consecutive days while all or any portion of the rent is delinquent shall be deemed an

any Tenant and/or any occupant(s) engage(s) in any illegal drug activity and/or criminal activity of any nature whatsoever on and/or off of the Apartment

upon demand for all costs and fees, whether or not contingent, incurred thereby by Landlord, in addition to all other amounts owed.

all terms and conditions of this Lease, including, without limitation, any term(s) that may not have been enforced strictly by Landlord previously.

an election by the Landlord not to enforce the provisions of this Lease pursuant to such a breach. Landlord's failure or delay in demanding damage
reimbursement, late payment charges, returned check charges, or other sums due Landlord, shall not be a waiver of Landlord's right to insist on payment
thereof. Landlord may demand same at any time, including at move-out and thereafter.

laws of the State of Florida.

41. SEVERABILITY: If any term of this Lease is found to be contrary to the laws of any jurisdiction having control of its construction, validity or
enforcement, or it is found that any term is void or voidable, then said term shall not apply and this Lease shall be construed as if said term were not
present, and there shall be no effect on the remainder of this Lease as a result of the removal of such term, provided that the general intent of this Lease
